Work on Monopoly History Page

[edit]

John, I'm going through my records having filmed interviews with many US & World Monopoly Champions to fully flesh out a history of ALL the country and world championships, not just US & Canada. I doubt that it will make sense to have 1 table large enough to contain all the countries, so we may want to revert the changes you made in reorganizing the tournament winners sometime in the future.

Information icon Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Monopoly (game), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- DonIago (talk) 18:21, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article Suburban Prairie Conference has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No notability asserted

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I have nominated History of the board game Monopoly for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. GamerPro64 23:39, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I hope you are doing well.
I recently closed Talk:History of Monopoly#Requested move 29 July 2020, and moved "History of the board game Monopoly" to "History of Monopoly". While doing the "post move cleanup", I saw your numerous edits to the article, and talkpage. Later I also saw your contributions related to Douglas Adams, and H2G2. I wanted to thank you for all your contributions to wikipedia. I sincerely respect the way you passionately edited the articles. I hope you see this message someday. It was truly my pleasure to come across your edits. Thanks again, —usernamekiran (talk) 05:41, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
