Speedies

Hi, thanks for your WP:NPP work, but please note that it's customary to wait about 10 minutes after an article has been created, to give new editors time to fix up articles: see WP:NEWBIES for more info. Thanks, Top Jim (talk) 23:41, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Spanish ironclad Sagunto

You really might want to double-check the article when placing templates. The above article had a full set of references when you slapped a no ref template on it. And waiting more than a minute after an article surfaces on the NPP list is a good idea as many editors will go through multiple saves before completing the first draft of an article. Saves your time and theirs.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:48, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Texas Farm to Market Roads

Please move the lists back. The official name in Texas is spelled that way by TxDOT. The individual articles are all titled that way. Yes, the "parent article" is different, but that's because the term outside of TX is hyphenated. Imzadi 1979 → 03:18, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
