Edits to User:Shayne Mac[edit]You must not leave messages on a user page, but rather on the associated talk page. You should delete what you left on User:Shayne Mac, and move it to User talk:Shayne Mac instead. Thanks--Jackaranga 16:36, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
How dare you delete my page[edit]How dare you delete my page, just because you hate everything and everyone, doesn't mean eveyrone else does. You hatey person. Do you think it's funny to ruin other people's pages which they spent ages on? I don't think so. I think you should go and think about what you've done, you naughty person. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Superbungalow21 (talk • contribs) 22:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC).
Removing speedy tags[edit]Please remember that anyone other than the original author is permitted to remove a speedy or prod tag, whether or not the person is an admin. Schools are sometimes notable. In this case, the article at http://www.isinspect.org.uk/reports/2005/1586_05.htm provides a good deal of information on why the school (which appears to be a nonprofit private school, rather than a company) can be considered notable. As well, if an article like Saint Michael's Church, Paris seems like an advertisement but the subject of the article is notable, it is best to rewrite the article so that it is WP:NPOV rather than deleting it. As an alternative, you can tag it as {{advertisement}} so that someone else will rewrite it. --Eastmain 22:50, 27 April 2007 (UTC) Notability of schools[edit]Some schools are more notable than others, of course, but there are often enough sources to create a reasonably good article about a school. See Friends School of Baltimore or Eton College, for example, or Columbine High School massacre and Columbine High School. You might want to see whether there is an article about the high school which you attended, and if there is, whether the article can be expanded. --Eastmain 23:07, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
Good way to handle the etymology section there. Sorry for the revert, but it obviously wsa originally way too long. I didn't know you were only doing that to cut it down later. DreamGuy 18:44, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
Please don't use speedy tags on sizeable, sourced articles. violet/riga (t) 19:46, 29 April 2007 (UTC) Silent House[edit]Hey, I created the page for Silent House as it's notable when a song is commercially produced by more than one artist, and that's the case here. Additionally, there are many individual songs that have articles created for them, in particular, many by Linkin Park and Panic! at the Disco. As it states in the WP:ALBUMS project page, pages about songs themselves are fine, but don't expect anybody else to go and create them (paraphrased, but that's the gist of it). As I've said, this song bears note due to its origins. I'm actually an advocate for many of the songs on Taking the Long Way to be given pages, if they're able to be put together properly. As a Grammy album of the year, the songs from it are certainly notable enough. Especialliy the songs co-written with musicians, such as Keb Mo, Sheryl Crow or with the guitar work of John Mayer and the like. I can see what you're saying, but I'd rather see a volume of information relating to this subject matter being provided here. I hape you can see where I'm coming from. --lincalinca 13:32, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
Cornish media - explanation[edit]Hi. Thanks for adding the speedy deletion explanation. The Cornish media article will definitely be interesting - due to Cornwall's previous isolation and the nature of its geography, mass media has had a unique effect upon Cornwall. Cornwall is also culturally diverse, and creatively very active. It is at a very exciting period in its history. Also, telegraphy, radio and UK satellite communications (Telstar) as well as advanced radar (like Martello) all started in Cornwall (although Marconi's claims are disputed by some). Current publications vary from Brides in Cornwall to the International Railway Journal and Pitpilot magazine. Yes, there are also many other interesting articles about Cornwall to be added to Wikipedia - I am also writing an article con-currently about the Palmerston Forts in Cornwall - I can't see that anything has been written about the ones in Cornwall before. In addition, a full article covering Cornwall and West Devon's win of World Heritage Status for mining sites needs to added in depth. This will, hopefully be a future project. Regards, Tinminer 15:01, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
Yes, it will be! Hopefully, the article will be up and running in a couple of days. Tinminer 16:24, 30 April 2007 (UTC) Wiccan Morality[edit]You recently nominated this article for speedy deletion. Please reconsider. After all, Redirects are cheap. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 19:21, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Prodego talk 20:32, 2 May 2007 (UTC) Hi, I see you are a good Wikipedian but... before tagging an article with a speedy, plz check to see if the guy is notable according to WP:N. Proof is the burdon of the claimant. frummer 16:03, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
I've started the talk page at Talk:Eyal Hertzog. I'd suggest that maybe first drafting an article like this in your sandbox might be a good idea? Then it won't show up as a short, unreferenced article when it appears as a new page? Sorry if this sounds condescending, but as it first appeared the present article looks like someone writing a piece of self-publicity, or a friend or employee 'bigging up' someone they know.

Martin Meehan Opinion[edit]A single sentence, not a few - and can you tell me that someone who simply prints this page wouldn't find this information useful? Shouldn't Wikipedia strive to include all information relevant to a person on their page? More to the point, even if you feel it is unnecessary, can you say it does harm to have it included? I would say at the very least, it doesn't hurt to include the information. I for one would like it if every page included this sort of data, a "what's happening now" section. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.16.121.195 (talk) 05:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC). I'd like to thank you for you input on Marty's page it helped us finish a edit war that was a waste of time for all the parties involved. Gang14 17:40, 5 May 2007 (UTC) What's the problem?[edit]Hi Kim, this is what you wrote to me regarding an article I posted: "Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Gunter nimtz. Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want. Thank you. Kim dent brown 08:33, 3 May 2007 (UTC)" Please explain what the hell was wrong with my page. Everything I wrote on it was verifiable, and was not intended as a joke in any sense. Whether or not you believe in the validity of Dr. Gunter Nimtz's claims has nothing to do with the seriousness of the information I presented. Don't act upon something unless you know what you're talking about!

I don't see the problem[edit]Ok well with all do respect I don't think my edit was by any means intended to be humorous. I stay impartial; I provided information that was factual happened. Certainly it does not appeal to the widest imaginable audience but those that it does apply to will find it informative etc. If you think my article is a problem then you should really have a problem with the 14 or so pages dedicated to the antics of Stephen Colbert. That's as 'humorous' as anything I've done here today. Secondly, have you read the page? There's information there, or did you just look at the seemingly random concoction of letters and assume this must be a joke? Well it’s not; The Blair Academy Popular Democratic Front for the Workers Socialist part does in fact exists as a group performing Guerrilla Theater. Considering the trouble I had finding information on the topic wikipedia should be ecstatic to have any other information on the subject not matter how inconsequential. Moreover, I have not found in my search of wikipedia’s various policies anything which would explicitly rule the page BAPDFSWP as inappropriate. Furthermore, it is my intention to expand the article so as to improve its content. However, not all of us can devote every waking minute to our wikipedia entries. So given more time you might not have had such a problem with it. If you’re really dieing to get rid of it hell I’m not going to waste anymore time on the issue but I completely disagree with your assertions.
Wicca article[edit]Hello there, thanks for adding the reference you did to this article. I've removed it for now, because I'm not sure it was in the right place. It was in the section titled 'Academic studies' which it isn't, being a magazine article (albeit from an academic institution!) Also, Ronald Hutton's address which is described went way beyond Wicca - if this link belongs anywhere I'd suggest that maybe an article with a broader scope, such as Neopaganism. But honestly, I'd think twice before using it at all as I'm not sure how much it adds that isn't already sourced... If there's something there that would merit an in-line citation, perhaps. But many of these articles suffer from an overload of 'See also' and 'Further reading' links, so I'm doubtful. Don't take my reversion as definitive! If you think it belongs, stick it in and we can argue it out on the talk page. but I thought I'd start the discussion here rather than just leave you with my edit note in Wicca.

Unblock requested[edit]Many thanks Selket, greatly appreciated. Kim Dent-Brown (Talk to me) 14:12, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
