PS: I know you're not a newcomer with your extensive edits, but it's nice to start off a talk page with a positive note.

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article The Bay (poem), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. gadfium 08:31, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on Talk:Allakhazam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Realkyhick 05:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know...

[edit]

Did you know that your user name has one of the most commonly used wrong terms for a polygon?? The list of polygons with 3-10 sides is:

  • 3 = triangle
  • 4 = quadrilateral
  • 5 = pentagon
  • 6 = hexagon
  • 7 = heptagon
  • 8 = octagon
  • 9 = enneagon
  • 10 = decagon

References

[edit]

Hi there, If you wish to convert references from the bog-standard inline format, to footnotes using <ref>, please remember to include a <references /> section at the bottom, otherwise they can't be seen. Since the benefit of footnote references is generally that they include more information, you may also wish to check out Template:Cite to find out how to expand references. All the best, Fourohfour 12:11, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question

[edit]

Hi. I have a question I left here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting#Cutting_rate, I wonder could you shed any light on it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mejor Los Indios (talkcontribs) 08:24, 1 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Water images & formatting

[edit]

Might I ask what you're attempting to do with these edits? It looks really odd (at least when I look at it) to have the text of the intro sandwiched between those too pictures. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 18:40, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can't really remember what it looked like before I edited it, only that I thought it looked so much better to have the pictures on either side, and the text sandwiched between the two. Nonagonal Spider 05:30, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request for edit summary

[edit]

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:


Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field - please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. – Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 14:25, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

D&D articles for Wikipedia 0.7

[edit]

Hi there!  :)

As someone who's worked on D&D and/or RPG articles before, I'm inviting you to participate in our goal to both improve articles that have been selected to be placed in the next Wikipedia DVD release, as well as nominate more to be selected for this project. Please see the WikiProject D&D talk page for more details. :) BOZ (talk) 16:04, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

do we really need the link twic in the articles? why we have then the template? --mabdul 0=* 19:30, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

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

Fails to assert real-world notability or cite sources.

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.
