Copyright concerns

Another contributor detected similarity between the article Selwyn School and The Handbook of Texas. It was listed at the copyright problems board for evaluation, but you were not notified and procedure requires one week's notice before admin closure. Accordingly, I am relisting the matter under today and providing you the notice that you were not given. Any input you have should be placed on the article's talk page. Thank you. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:52, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Janet Coats

Thanks for saving that. It didn't occur to me that someone would strip an article, and not even not a reason. I'll try to check for that in the future. Maurreen (talk) 15:33, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

It seems that the Janet Coats entry is her resume written in encyclopedic form--almost. It completely ignores controversy, such as her arrest for driving under the influence. If Coats is a public person deserving of an entry in Wikipedia, then she cannot cherry pick what data to delete from an article that fully discusses her status as a former journalist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anydoubt2010 (talk • contribs) 20:23, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

April 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to American Society of News Editors, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you.

The recent edit you made to American Society of News Editors has been reverted, as it removed all content from the page without explanation. Please do not do this, as it is considered vandalism; use the sandbox for testing. If you think the page should be deleted, see here for what to do. Thank you. Mato (talk) 16:41, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
