Live Search Mobile screenshot

Hi, it's good that you updated the screenshot, but would you be able to take another one without all of the custom apps running? It could be confusing to someone as to what the program actually looks like when the Windows Mobile installation has a lot of custom programs running on top of it. I feel like the best way to demonstrate any Windows Mobile program is to do it using a default theme/installation. Brianreading (talk) 07:47, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

June 2008

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Windows Vista. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Gwernol 00:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Windows Vista

STOP IT. Use the talk page, Talk:Windows Vista, to discuss the additions you want to make. You have had three different editors remove your changes so far, which should be taken as a sign that whatever it is you're trying to accomplish isn't being accepted. You may find yourself blocked from editing Wikipedia if you insist on carrying on in this fashion, and I'm fairly certain that that's not what you're trying to accomplish here. -/- Warren 00:31, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of List of insurgent fatality reports in Afghanistan

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of insurgent fatality reports in Afghanistan. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of insurgent fatality reports in Afghanistan. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:16, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

March 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Windows Vista, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This is particularly important when adding or changing any facts or figures and helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Please note that, as per WP:CIRCULAR, Wikipedia articles can not be used as sources. Furthermore, a source that represents "the median of several stat counters" is in breach of Wikipedia's No original research policy. Combining several sources is defined as being Synthesis of published material that advances a position. WP:SYNTH states "Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources. If one reliable source says A, and another reliable source says B, do not join A and B together to imply a conclusion C that is not mentioned by either of the sources. This would be a synthesis of published material to advance a new position, which is original research." AussieLegend (talk) 11:27, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did to Windows Vista, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. As I previously indicated to you, with appropriate links to the relevant policies, Wikipedia articles can not be used as references. AussieLegend (talk) 22:07, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

OnLive

Please note that we do not consider OnLive a different platform as compared to Windows, 360, PS3, etc. We have determined that while it is a unique piece of hardware, it is effectively just a storefront like Steam, Impulse, or the like, and the availability of a game on that system is not necessary information to be included in articles. it's fine to have articles like List of OnLive games but identifying on the game pages about OnLive availability is inappropriate. --MASEM (t) 06:30, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

It is no different a storefront like Steam adds Steamworks to allow some new features to be added beyond the core game, or how Good Old Games assures older games that worked on Dos or early Windows versions are still compatible with newer systems - but we don't consider these as platforms for the games. It would be different if there were actually uniquely developed games coming out for OnLive, but at the present, it is basically an emulator for these games to work in the cloud computing interface. Hence we cannot consider OnLive any more special than Steam or other game storefronts. --MASEM (t) 06:44, 2 February 2011 (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.
