Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks!

Prince whatsit

[edit]

You nominated this article for deletion, but didn't create the AfD page or link to it on the listing. Could you at least go to the AfD page and give your reason (it's linked to in the box on the article page)? Thanks. yandman 20:21, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This should just redirect to Al-Waleed bin Talal If you are agreeable let me know and I'll just go ahead and boldly do this.--Isotope23 20:33, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please go ahead. Thank you.--Gkklein 20:37, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deborah Davis

[edit]

Hi there! I've completed your AfD nomination for Deborah Davis. It's probably a good idea for you to edit the AfD discussion and say why you think the article should be deleted. Tevildo 13:33, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Campbell's Soup Cans

[edit]

Why did you move the photo back to the left. It looks odd because at most high resolutions it causes one line of text to be left justified and the next several to be left picture justified because of the way the top template extends into the first main section. I am going to move it back. TonyTheTiger 18:38, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, thank you for correcting.--Gkklein 18:55, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cans

[edit]

Thanks for the help with Campbell's Soup Cans. I never noticed that Chedder can. There is probably a story on that. It is definitely worth noting. I see you are adding a table. Why don't we work on that on another page until it looks like something. Right now people are forming an opinion on the page while it is a candidate. Since I have not gotten any very serious objections (things that can't be fixed easily), I don't want to give people a reason to give me any. I would appreciate it if you would move the table somewhere else and let me know where it is. I can see your point looking at the closeup of the image here.

Thanks for uploading Image:Tisserie.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

AfD Nomination: Tisserie

[edit]

An editor has nominated the article Tisserie for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tisserie. Add four tildes like this ~~~~ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Tisserie during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate.

License tagging for Image:Bonnier Magazine Group.png

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Bonnier Magazine Group.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 08:04, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Galileo Industries, 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). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit]

I have reverted your removal of the Criticism section of the Felix Rohatyn page, for reasons discussed on Talk:Felix Rohatyn#Criticism. If you'd like to share your point of view, please join in there. Thanks. --Falcorian (talk) 05:27, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see you have not been actively editing lately. This may explain why you have not commmented at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Campbell's Soup Cans. I just am informing you of a close vote. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 14:48, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

About notability

[edit]

The notability guideline does not directly govern the contents of an article, but only whether Wikipedia should have an article about a topic. So take it easy with your in-article deletionism. Xasodfuih (talk) 04:01, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article Howard Kerzner has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced bio, fails WP:N and WP:V

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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. Jeepday (talk) 19:48, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aliyah (Torah), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Megillah (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.

Problem with your custom signature

[edit]

You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
  3. Remove anything in the Signature: text box. (It might already be empty.)
  4. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "Restore all default settings" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:
  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
  3. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. 19:04, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
