Sybille Bedford

You've done a very nice job of making Sybille Bedford more readable, and added some interesting information. There are only two things that I question. I know that it is standard to refer to the subject of a biographical article by their surname, but this is problematic when that surname changes over the course of a life. By doing so in this article, we wind up referring to Sybile as "Bedford" before she had that name, and wind up with absurdities such as "Bedford" marrying Terry Bedford (when in fact it was von Schoenebeck who married Bedford). Perhaps a way around this last could be found. As for the other: my impression was that "A Compass Error" was primarily about lesbian love; unless that's wrong, it seems odd not to mention it. But all in all, quite a nice improvement. - Nunh-huh 18:03, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Hero

Thanks for the kind words. I might do a page on the Teknophage, as he seems interesting and I just bought a stack of his comics. -Armaced 04:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Letter To God Ltd. article

Hello Watchsmart,

I would like to say I didn't meant to vote twice, only to let the viewers know I altered the article so they will check it again. I removed the Keep from my comment so it will not be counted as a vote.

About the two links to the non-English web site, Ynetnews is the biggest newspaper in Israel, having a post regarding the company there is very notable.

I wrote the article with pure intentions, if you can give me some advice how to make the article better I would appreciate it allot.

Thanks, Koby --Gokoby (talk) 07:55, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Couple of points: you should find some English language coverage of the topic in order to make it easier for editors here to assess the notability. All we can tell about the articles linked to is that they seem to be on-line only press, written by the same reporter and sort of "light" in scope. To me, "biggest favorite websites of 2006" seems like a list, and not a claim to notability.

And I know that you own the copyright to the text on the Letter to God website, but it is still not acceptable to use it on Wikipedia. You have to change that section of the article. Watchsmart (talk) 00:44, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WPFOOD

Please remove the tag from any animal related any article that does not include human foods. There have been some wired tags, for some reason carpentry is in the foods category. We tried to eliminate as much as possible, but are only human.

Sorry for the problem
