Proposed deletion of Jim Fleming (rugby union)

The article Jim Fleming (rugby union) has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Eeekster (talk) 23:55, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Your RfA

Your RfA is not correctly transcluded. You need to follow the instructions to uncomment the time parser function. I note that you've already received one Oppose !vote because of the incorrect transclusion; seeing your RfA fail due to improperly creating the candidacy page would be, shall we say, less than auspicious. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (User:N5iln) (talk) 16:46, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

While I think you have the best intentions, I can promise you from years of experience that this RfA is going to go downhill at an alarming speed. I suggest you just end it now and spend a few months working toward a new attempt... after spending some time working in projectspace functions. I would be happy to discuss and help you in what will be expected of you for your next try. Trusilver 16:53, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi Coolguy22468. I have closed your RfA because I don't believe it has a realistic chance of succeeding at this time. Please don't let this discourage you, many editors did not succeed with their first RfA (including me!) and it should in no way imply you are not a valued editor. Best, 28bytes (talk) 20:27, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Autopatrolled

Hi Coolguy22468, just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled right to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Swarm X 21:18, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

St. Gabriel's RC Primary School

Please be aware that most primary schools shouldn't have an article. The essay Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines gives more info on this. Usually, primary school articles are redirected to eithet the article about the locality (as I did here), or to the school district (if that has an article). You can always add a short paragraph on the school to the locality article of course, but info like the exact address, name of the current headteacher, ... isn't needed there.

'Grassington Coach Crash'

Personally, I think that its misleading to call it the 'Grassington Coach Crash', and I haven't heard it being referred to that before. It used to be be associated with 'near Hebden', although it actually happened in Appletreewick. 81.131.95.89 (talk) 17:50, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about the lack of signature in my last message - I couldn't log in for some reason. In the Road Traffic Accidents page, the location used to be referred to as Hebden, but I changed that as it wasn't in Hebden Parish, but in Appletreewick Parish. I also took out a reference to it in the Hebden page for the same reason. If you Google ""dibbles bridge" crash" you do actually get a lot of references.

Dibble's Bridge Coach Crash

As the initiator of the page, you may be interested in this conversation: User_talk:Richard_Harvey. We're in the position that Richard acknowledges that the correction he made is made is wrong, but because it can be backed up by an inaccurate map that is online, rather than by the definitive 1:25,000 OS map that is not online, the incorrect fact should be retained. Langcliffe (talk) 17:03, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Natasha Kaplinsky

Hi - You reverted the image on the said article saying it was not fair image use. I had read the wikipidea guidelines and the way I understood them was: it would not be appropriate to use a screen shot of a presenter as an info box picture - another image could be found to do that. But, as I understand the rules it is ok to use a screenshot of someone presenting as an example of their work on a particular show. Could you please explain to me how you understand the guidelines as I obviously haven't understood correctly. Thanks. Uvghifds (talk) 22:58, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your help - so it is purely an administrative problem on my part for not including that on the rational. I will see if I can edit it. Thanks again. Uvghifds (talk) 19:09, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism reversion mistake

WikiProject Eurovision: Discussion on the use of navigation templates

Hello,

There is currently a discussion ongoing at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Eurovision#Template duplications on the future use of navigation templates (navboxes) within Eurovision articles. The consequences of this discussion could have a large impact on how these templates are organized, named, and used in future, so all project members are invited to participate in the discussion.

Hi. When you recently edited Tamworth (borough), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page West Midlands (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Message from the Editorial Team

Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome!

Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. It is easy for editors to get into conflict with each other, and things can get very nasty on the most trivial of issues, whether that be on the language of songs, the names of certain countries, or how we deal with incidents at the contest. In such circumstances it is worth remembering one thing: we are all here to build an encyclopedia, and the contribution of Eurovision to human knowledge can only be given justice if we work together and make articles, not drama!

  • If you would like something to appear in the August 2012 Edition of the newsletter, then please inform us at the Project Newsdesk.
  • If there is an article you think we should have? Request it here.

Happy editing!

Project News
  • When creating new articles about a performer or song, please remember to add sources either from Eurovision.tv, ESCToday or other reliable sources. If you're not sure a source is reliable enough, then ask the project for an opinion.
  • Remember to only add content to articles that is relevant to the article's main subject. Anything not in relation to the article may be questioned and/or subject to redirection to an article that would benefit it's inclusion. Again if in doubt, ask on the article or project talk pages for an opinion - communication is an important tool.
  • On the subject of communication, please make use of the article talk pages. They are a vital tool in conducting consensus talks of additions of proposed new sections and/or removal of unnecessary section. If you don't use these pages to put across your views, then you only have yourself to blame if actions are taken that you disagree with and you end up wandering into edit warring territory.
  • The 2012 season of Eurovision has drawn to a close, and we now start preparations for the 2013 edition. While things will be slow to start of with, now is the ideal opportunity to do a clean-up exercise across articles relating to the project. There's over 4,500 articles associated with the project. If you happen to see a Eurovision related article without the {{EurovisionNotice}} template on the article's talk page, please add it. You can also read Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment if you would like to help assess or reassess articles in our project if you see that they have outgrown their current assessment. There is currently one unassessed article.
  • And finally... a massive thank you to all members of the project for your constant hard work on collaborating and contributing to Eurovision related articles. Keep up the good work team!
