Request for sources for Photovoltaics
[edit]You've added a request for more sources on the article Photovoltaics. Skimming the article, I do in fact see many sources cited. Could you please take the time and identify particular claims you want to be substantiated? Then put it up for discussion on Talk:Photovoltaics.

England
[edit]When you said school bans on Pogs in England did you specifically mean england or the whole of the UK?
- It does not appear that I ever edited that section of the article, and I have no knowledge of that detail, sorry. (I hope you're watching this page because you didn't sign your question.) AltiusBimm 02:03, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
I have partially reverted your edits at this article. I did this because this (in my opinion) is not an instance where you can apply a consensus vote WP:NOT#DEMOCRACY. It is a case where editors can discus the evidence but have to ultimately justify their edits based on reliable sources WP:VERIFY. In other words we can't vote to make something up. I have given further reasons in that article's talk. Have a look and do comment. Halfblue 14:56, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, well said and very polite too! This has been a very educational experience, I realize you're quite right about consensus be an invalid basis for this decision. Moreover now that I think about it, it was my original research that made me do it, an obvious no-no.—AltiusBimm 18:37, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Notability of Bsecure Internet Protection Services
[edit]A tag has been placed on Bsecure Internet Protection Services 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 by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. 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. NeilN 04:00, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to United States twenty-dollar bill. Thank you. MBK004 20:41, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
I turned this into a redirect to Wikipedia. This is presumably already explained on various other pages. Pages that are meant to be explanations about Wikipedia rather than part of the encyclopedia proper are given the prefix "Wikipedia:", like Wikipedia:About. Friday (talk) 21:50, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
