Hello Radiojon! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to these articles, it would greatly help us with the current 299 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Mellow Man Ace - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Luckie@Hemphill?

Regarding The Varsity's original location at Georgia Tech, where do these two roads meet? From Google Maps, it appears Luckie St. ends at North Ave. and continues NW as Tech Pkwy., and that Hemphill runs from Ferst Dr. NNW to Northside Dr., with the two never even meeting. Assuming the campus roads have since been chopped up for new buildings, where did these two meet in the past? –radiojon (talk) 17:24, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Approximately where Tech Parkway and North Avenue (Atlanta) meet today. I did a bit of a mashup that you can have a look at here: Georgia Tech 1911-2010 —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 08:29, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So what'd you think of that? —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 05:37, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What are you doing?!

You have been moving a LOT of pages over the past two years. While about half of your moves make sense, half of them do not. I'm referring to your bizarre habit of moving articles to titles that no one uses---namely, with extra hyphens. For example, the correct term is "proton pump inhibitor", not "proton-pump inhibitor." Please check your moves against the literature in a field (see Google Books) before going off and making a huge mess for the admins to clean up. --Coolcaesar (talk) 03:47, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You're still at it, a month later. I agree that Delayed sleep-phase syndrome is a better name than the un-hyphenated one. However, very few people use it, so it's been moved back. - Hordaland (talk) 12:58, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Eldrin Bell

A tag has been placed on Eldrin Bell requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Advertise

A tag has been placed on Advertise, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Undiscussed/unexplained moves

Please stop moving the TV channel articles en masse without discussion. These are not networks. Please see the television network article for an explanation of what a network is. As indicated at the top of the article, this is not to be confused with a television channel. —David Levy 00:07, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that when you redid your disputed (and incorrect) move of Calle 13 (TV channel) to Calle 13 (TV network), you then performed a dummy edit to the resultant redirect to prevent others from again undoing your move. This was highly inappropriate, and if you do it again, you probably will be blocked. —David Levy 01:01, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You never responded to the above, and I see that you once again are moving these articles en masse without discussion or explanation. Please cease this disruption immediately. —David Levy 22:27, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Combiner vs Diplexer

Hi Radiojon,

You have redirected Combiner to Diplexer. But they are not the same thing. The following is from the introductory paragraph: The diplexer is a different device than a passive combiner or splitter. The ports of a diplexer are frequency selective; the ports of a combiner are not.So how about clearing the redirect ? Cheers. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 15:48, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Vintage Hawaiian Treasures

The article Vintage Hawaiian Treasures has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Empty

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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} 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. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:52, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Six Flags White Water

Greetings. Thanks for your interest on Six Flags White Water, but as a general rule, incidents such as the one today generally are not given the prominence of being included in the article's lead section. That said, I can understand the issue, since, in its prior state, the article really didn't have a lead section. It does now, and the earlier E. coli incident was added in the history section, since it's part of the park's earlier history (pre-Six Flags), with today's incident being included in the appropriate Incidents at Six Flags parks section, much as incidents at other Six Flags parks (and actually, other companies' parks, such as Disney, Universal, Cedar Fair, etc.) are so located. This article seriously needs references, so if there's any help you can provide, please do so. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 03:43, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Supply Chain

You move of the supply chain management article needs to have a discussion on the article's talk page. As you created roughly 300 redirects and moved the page away from its most common spelling, this seems like a very poor idea and I have reverted the action. Thanks. Kuru (talk)

First aid kit

Hi there,

I have reverted your move of First Aid Kit to a hyphenated version. Currently, none of the first aid articles on wikipedia use a hyphenated version and it would be out of place to move this one across. If you think that a global change should be made, then please discuss on talk, or better still at wikiproject first aid.

Proposed deletion of Q100

The article Q100 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A non-notable neologism, no reliable sources cited.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

mass rename of law enforcement to law-enforcement

Was there a discussion somewhere where this series of moves were discussed? The hyphenated word law-enforcement does not appear in any English dictionary that I've tried so far. —EncMstr (talk) 01:36, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the "Law-enforcement vs. law enforcement" section of WP:ANI, where this series of moves is being discussed. Nyttend (talk) 02:42, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Vintage Hawaiian Treasures for deletion

A discussion has begun about whether the article Vintage Hawaiian Treasures, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vintage Hawaiian Treasures until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 13:32, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Undiscussed page moves

You've unfortunately gotten into a bad habit of making page moves without discussion. This causes work and trouble for the people who have to clear up the mess you make, and those who feel they have to discuss what to do in response to your actions. I am therefore making this offer to you; do not make any further page moves without there being a clear consensus that the page move is warranted, either at article talk, project talk or at requested moves. The very next time I see you make an undiscussed move of a page, I will block this account indefinitely. I hope this offer will help you to get out of this bad habit; I note you have never been blocked before so let's try to keep it that way. Please don't hesitate to ask here if you need any clarification of what I mean; I will be watching this page as I will be watching your edits. Best wishes, --John (talk) 23:55, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please note: per the discussion at WP:AN/I Nyttend mentioned to you above, John is not the only Admin who believes you need to discuss your page moves before making them. Simply put, any Admin will block this account should you make an undiscussed move as John described above. Discussion is always a good thing, & if you have any questions feel free to either ask here (you may want to also add {{Help me}}), or use one of the resources at Wikipedia:Help. Likewise, best wishes. -- llywrch (talk) 15:12, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Concur with both of the above. Keep up the frivolous moves to hyphenated terms that NO ONE uses and you will definitely be blocked. Permanently. --Coolcaesar (talk) 03:19, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Halloween store

The article Halloween store has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Original Research, No references. Perhaps mergable to another topic. But as-is, would require a large rewrite by an interested editor.

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.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:34, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Template:Atlanta skyscrapers

A tag has been placed on Template:Atlanta skyscrapers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it must be substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>).

Thanks. emerson7 07:18, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Power dividers

Hello there, some time ago you made this edit to the article Power dividers and directional couplers. Are you able to provide sources for this contribution? The article is currently up for GA and unsorced material remaining in the article will cause it to fail the GA review. So unfortunately, the material will have to be removed if sources are not forthcoming. Spinning Spark 19:35, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
