Looks like you're a really busy guy. I haven't heard from anyone else that they think the article was POV. So, I guess it's just one of those things. Maybe the person that tagged it just doesn't like Van Morrison. I can't tell you the number of hours I've put into the article. I'm working towards maybe getting it rated at least a GA. More work needed though, I know. Thanks, Agadant 20:34, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Congrats on your continued Wikizenship! -- JeeSpot 17:27, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
As you probably saw on the discussion page for Van, I'm working on the footnotes for the article as was requested by HeavensWrath. This is the 1st article I've worked on so it's been a process of learning by doing. ( I work better that way anyway.) I want to get the article rated higher and everything verified so there won't be any questions about POV or accuracy. I'm willing to try to find sources to footnote for what has been entered over the last few years, but I'm not sure exactly when something has to be referenced. Can you give me some general rules. I've read the Wiki articles on footnotes and references but it doesn't always seem clear. I checked history and sent a message to one person who entered something asking for a reference, and will wait before removing it or try harder to find something on it myself. (Is this the right way to handle it?) ........ If something: for instance Van receiving an OBE is easily verifiable, does it still need a reference? If one whole paragraph can be sourced in one book, can only one footnote work for the paragraph by using the multiple page numbers? (As I noted on the article talk page the footnotes and citation numbers will be out of order until I get further along.) Hope this is okay. Thanks for any help or advice....(whenever you get a little time).... Agadant 02:58, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the information. Think it was just exactly clear cut enough to be very helpful. Agadant 20:43, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi,
I was feeling a little nostalgic and remembered you as being the person who welcomed me to Wikipedia back in January, 2006. That's a lot of edits ago. Thank you again for being so kind. You, and persons like you, are what make Wikipedia so very special.
Hope all is well with you. -- Michael David 00:57, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I just wanted to say hi. Goodgirldv9898 22:19, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

A {{
prod}} template has been added to the article
Maya Guez, suggesting that it be deleted according to the
proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the
proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the
speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to
Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if
consensus to delete is reached.

Are You Tube videos allowed on wikipedia articles now? I've encountered them several times in song articles I've browsed and removed them, but noticed some administrators have edited the article before and not removed them. You're always so helpful, thought you might give me some feedback on this issue. Thanks, Agadant 16:12, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Ok, two things. One, I'm sorry I haven't been on Wiki for a LONG time. I had to get another computer, because my old one got a virus. And secondly, I'm in to anime. What anime you ask? Naruto!

Thanks for uploading
Image:CliffRichard-DressedOccasion(cover).JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:40, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:VanMorrison-WavelengthCoverMay2005.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot ( talk) 15:54, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bang masters cover.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.
Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI ( talk) 20:15, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Ways to aviod: 1. Look at it, give up, leave and never return 2. Do some vandalizing 3. Stick to editing articles instead of creating them.
Looks like number three is the way to go. But thanx anyway. Lets see...4 tildes Resident Mario ( talk) 20:10, 9 December 2008 (UTC) - talk:Resident Mario

Hello Ahamed! Remember that User_talk:Resident_Mario you helped a month ago? Well, he's made a lot of progress into that darn HTML code. So thanks for being the first person I met via Wikipedia! Also, can you help me in a small way? I've spent quite a bit of time studying other user's pages (notable, User:Example) and working into my own User:Resident_Mario:Userpage(s). Can you please give me a peer review of my results? Thank you!

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles ( talk) 02:31, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
