Simon Allard

Hi, please feel free to delete 'Simon Allard' page. I only originally wrote one line as a bit of a test. Not really a wiki aficionado. Certainly not a notable academic! Cheers!Simon Allard (talk) 00:38, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Simon. It will be deleted shortly. I'm not an administrator and therefore cannot delete it myself. Let me know if you need any additional help here on Wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions! P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 01:27, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

K-tel article

You left me a message regarding my edits to the K-tel artcle. Please tell me how you determine my edits to be "unconstructive". They were mostly formatting changes, e.g. putting album titles in italics, rather than quotes. To the best of my knowledge, album titles are italicized. (Song titles usually appear in quotes.) Take a look at nearly any music-related article and you will find that to be the case. --134.174.110.7 (talk) 17:44, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

I'm happy that your intentions were good, but I saw that you placed the markup between the "T" and "h" of "The...", so it looked like you weren't being constructive. Furthmore, this edit also put the markup in a weird place. Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 18:15, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

That was aapparently an error on my part, sadly. But my intention was to reformat so that the album titles were in italics, as is generally the case with most music-related articles. Thanks.--134.174.110.7 (talk) 18:24, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

No biggie - I went ahead and italicized the album titles. Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 22:09, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Lantronix Page

Hi Pdcook... you were mistaken. We did want to remove all the old content and add what I put. I work at the company and the information was outdated and some incorrect. Please reverse what you did.

Thanks, N — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.134.254.15 (talk) 23:57, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

There were several problems with the edits you made. They removed maintenance tags, an infobox, categories, and a stub tag. If there is incorrect information, please update the article, but do not remove those features unless you understand them. The edits you made also were not very encyclopedic and bordered on being promotional (calling the company a "global leader" and saying the products are "easy to integrate and employ"). Finally, since you have identified yourself as an employee, please review Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines. If you have concerns, you can always discuss them on the article's talk page. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 02:16, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

WP:FOOD Needs You!

Hi there Pdcook! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?

If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?

First off, go here and add {{Tick}} (Y) next to your name if you're still part of the project.

Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.

You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

Guidance needed

Hi Pdcook,

A long time ago you tagged the Novozymes article. As I would very much like to help further develop Novozymes’ articles on Wikipedia – in line with Wikipedia standards and guidelines – could I kindly ask you to provide a bit of guidance as for how this article can be brought in compliance?

With many thanks, and kind regards,

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.

Hi:

I am following up on some changes I made to the Greendale, Wisconsin page. An editor named FLD made changes to my changes and I am trying to understand why -- and what I can do to add some things back in -- in a way that he will not object to. Your last message suggested posting a question to his board -- but unless I am missing something it does not appear possible.

Also, I will try to sign this with the tildes -- but saying sign with four tildes does not tell me exactly how to do it.

While I am not completely new to Wikipedia, I do not do a lot of editing and have not had the need to talk with editors previously.
