Well, isn't every release they put out their latest? And I wasn't the first person to edit the article to say RNS was over, I merely added the text from their nfo regarding so. --Zimbabweed 00:15, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

copyedit

I'll definitely take a look. Kind of busy this week, but I'll do it ASAP. Thanks for letting me know! Xiner (talk, email) 22:33, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I've got a question. I assume that articles are placed in Category:Wikipedia articles needing copy edit before they are moved in Category:All articles needing copy edit. When are they moved into the huge subcategory? Thanks. Xiner (talk, email) 04:00, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh that makes a lot of sense now. So that's how the date tags work. Thanks! Xiner (talk, email) 04:25, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Eminem albums moves

Good day sir. You can check the real albums names here: http://www.d12world.com/board/showthread.php?t=243665 "Curtain Call" is named "Curtain Call", not "Curtain Call: The Hits", and so is "The Re-Up". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by IWM (talk • contribs) 01:37, 12 March 2007 (UTC).

Easyreader

Yeah, that stopped working awhile back after some mediawiki update or another, and I haven't had time to fix it or take easyreader off the page. If you're willing to do either, feel free. Tlogmer ( talk / contributions ) 08:14, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

publisher or author?

In reply to your Help Desk question: if the site doesn't list an author, then you just leave out the author in the citation, and put the BBC as the publisher. -- Chairman S. Talk ^Contribs 08:36, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello

Hello!

Hello!

Em albums again

How about this? Eminem's official webstore lists the albums as "Re-Up" and "Curtain Call".

How to add userbox

Hello W3stfall,

Thanks so much for the nice welcome. I had so much fun the first day, I made my own user box, kindof. If you look again at the front page, you will see a box that says I'm a La Leche League Leader. But, my code isn't quite perfect, mostly because I just cut and paste and pretended to know what I was doing. Can you recommend someone who might fix it up for me.

Also, now that I've made a userbox, how do I put it on the userbox list? I tried. I failed. I would put it under Health.

I think that this is the extent to which I will fiddle with code, it not being a natural language for me. But, it certainly was fun.

Thanks so much

Candace aka I'm Nonpartisan

LLL Userbox

Dear W3stfa11,

Thanks so much for your help. I knew I had made some kind of error in there somewhere, what with all the cut and paste, and I'm so glad I had someone to ask. Thanks also for the signature help, I think I know what to do now, use the little squiggle box at the top of the page.

Newbie gratitude award for you.

Notability of The Vanished

A tag has been placed on The Vanished, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Levine2112 ^discuss 21:54, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Telerik

The article Telerik has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable company. Been here a while and just reads as an advert

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. noq (talk) 00:00, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
