I saw the article this morning and tried to verify the information in it. So I went and looked for reliable sources to back up the information that is in the article. I didn't find any third party sources to back up the information. In the policy on verifiability it says: :If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it.IMO, since I could not find any third party sources and none are listed in the article, Wikipedia should not have an article on this. I hope this helps, if not let me know and I will try to explain my reasoning better. Jons63 (talk) 13:07, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit]
Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Mount Diablo. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. --Stepheng3 (talk) 02:00, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe I can help out. The edit Stepheng3 is referring to is a change in elevation. There are two ways of measuring elevation. The old way uses the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD 29) and the newer way uses the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). WikiProject Mountains favors the use of NAVD 88 elevations and that was the elevation given before your edit. You changed it to the NGVD 29 value which can be found at Peakbagger.com. The preferred NAVD 88 elevation can be found at the U.S. National Geodetic Survey site. If you need a more complete explanation drop me a note. –droll [chat] 02:31, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of NERF wars
[edit]
I have nominated NERF wars, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NERF wars (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. — Dædαlus Contribs 02:01, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
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.
