Did you see Piccolo Quintet on the Main page today? On the composer's birthday (I remember how you helped me with my first article!) - and it occured to me only later. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 20:46, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

In your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jameel Dumas, you noted, "If someone finds and adds suitable sources to the article, I will reconsider." I have tonight completely re-written the article incorporating extensive news coverage on Dumas, consisting of multiple feature stories about him. I'd ask you to give it a second look.

Hey there. I don't know if you're still active, but if you get a minute, could you take a look at this article? An anon IP has been repeatedly adding a column that has the company that hosts the event. It started by them making this edit elsewhere to mention "Mid-America Festivals Inc.", but then it expanded to the List article as well. Personally I think it's advertisement, but I could be wrong, so if you could chime in, that'd be most appreciated. Thanks. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 19:49, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're listed as a Wikipedian associated with Michigan State University. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at MSU, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.
Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).
If you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone in the East Lansing area who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.-- Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation ( talk) 20:23, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

I saw you are active at adding hooks to DYK, so I am hoping you can answer a question for me. I verified a hook at Template talk:Did you know#Articles created/expanded on December 28 for List of managers of defunct Major League Baseball teams. However, I am unsure about the "New" criteria; only the prose lead has been expanded fivefold, not the list. Could you please look at the article history and confirm that it meets the "new" criteria.

I apologize ahead of time if I screw up the format of any of this, but this is my first day on Wikipedia. Someone alerted me to the fact that there was a page with my information on it and that's pretty neat. Most of the information is accurate but there are some things I could clear up, but I have no idea how to do it. If you'd be interested in getting the accurate information I can be reached at Cedar Rapids Washington HS and there is an email directory on the website. Nice article, when did it get posted?

Hi cmadler, I wanted to see what your opinion on off campus housing listed on the Eastern Michigan University student life page under housing. The reason why I ask is because i've never seen on a university page housing listed like pen place (or equivalent). I've seen affiliated housing listed but pen place for emu is not affiliated. Have you seen this on any other pages? I've been searching on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities article Pwojdacz ( talk) 07:09, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
Re: this edit: Oh, I have no doubt that the locals use the definite article. My question is, does their usage mean that the article must necessarily use it? Some of them have apparently, when the subject has come up in the past, insisted yes, Wikipedia must follow local convention. That is what I question. I want a diverse group to decide how the article should read, and if general usage in the English-speaking world is to say "Chesapeake Bay is a body of water", instead of "The Chesapeake Bay is a body of water", then the article should read accordingly. To my Midwestern ears, the article's use of the definite article reads very oddly. HuskyHuskie ( talk) 02:13, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Unfortunately I'm not able to do it right now since I'm in class, but because there's such an issue with EMU's uniform, I will draw the updated image later today. Please do not remove the image from the main page or restore the image to the 2009 season article, as it will be replaced with another image. -- Kevin W./ Talk• CFB uniforms/ Talk 16:48, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Ok, I've gone ahead and uploaded the new uniform. Unfortunately, time constraints will prevent me from uploading the old uniform image right now, but it will get done eventually. I'll be able to make some improvements to the current uniform image when images of it become available via EA's TeamBuilder, which gives me a much better look at the uniforms than photographs do. -- Kevin W./ Talk• CFB uniforms/ Talk 20:26, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
A more clear explanation of my reversion since I was limited by space: the date is not included in the current version of uniforms because that is where future uniforms will be uploaded. Leaving the date off means that it won't have to be updated every time a new uniform is added. However, dates are added to the old uniforms. Also, as for the "football team" part, the NFC licensing clearly states that it's in an article about the football team, so adding in the phrase like you did is redundant. -- Kevin W./ Talk• CFB uniforms/ Talk 08:37, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. For historic districts I generally don't write detailed descriptions of the individual buildings unless they're very few (i.e., Bank Street Historic District (Waterbury, Connecticut)) or there's only one or two resources on the property that really merit such (can't think of an example on short notice).

Thanks I appreciate your note, but albums are categorized by the artist to whom they are credited, not by each individual who actually played on it. Note that (e.g.) Led Zeppelin II is not categorized under Category:Robert Plant albums because it's not a Robert Plant (solo) album. It is appropriate to make Category:Led Zeppelin albums a sub-category of Category:Robert Plant albums, as he performed on all Led Zeppelin recordings. It would be virtually impossible and highly unweildy to categorize albums by all of the performers that are on the album and I believe that consensus is in favor of categorizing according to this scheme (see this discussion which mentions articles categorized by jazz performers.) Please let me know if this doesn't make sense to you or if my explanation is lacking. — Justin (koavf)❤ T☮ C☺ M☯ 16:08, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Cross posted to the named article: I admire the care taken by User:Blueboy96 and User:Cmadler carefully to source their additions to the article with WP:RS. I still don't like the speculative feel to it all (what happens, for example, if in the extreme Shapiro is making most of it up?), but a) I guess that this article on a current issue is the proper place for this kind of material, and b) I'm outvoted 2 to 1 here. I would, however, appreciate it if this recentist material would be kept out of the articles on the death penalty and on Miami football until something much more substantive appears. regards, Sensei48 ( talk) 20:12, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

The media file you uploaded as File:Mackinacpoint.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).

Thanks for your help finding references on the EMU student center article. it was much appreciated. Pwojdacz ( talk) 02:17, 24 March 2012 (UTC) |
I have to admit, when doing a little run of Sports and Games GA reviews, I've been ignoring this article because I am not sure what to do with it. My inclination is to fail the nomination, as it just doesn't feel very complete - i.e.: virtually the entire history section deals with 1978-79, and nothing really beyond. (Also, I would move "The game that never was" up to the history section.) I don't want to fail it because of how long it has been in the queue, however. I realize it is a relatively small festival, so there won't be a multitude of major historical events, but is there more that can be added? Also, a section on the festival's organization would help. Who organizes it now? Is it volunteer based? What impact does it have on the community? Adding some of these things would definitely help the article out. Cheers, Reso lute 01:24, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Credo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:
It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.
At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange).
Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.
If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at [email protected]. Cheers! Ocaasi t | c 17:11, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
I was just looking at User talk:Tkfy7cf/archive 1 and saw your interaction with sad user. He is, in my opinion a jerk plain and simple. That's why I added him to my shit list. I think the bottom line is, he has a Masters in Poetry and a Ph.D. in English and therefore 1) is probably unemployed and has nothing better to do with his time, 2) thinks he's smarter than everyone who doesn't have a bunch of letters after thier name. and 3) is probably a single skinny nerd.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Kokomo Bros 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 band or musician, 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.
If you think that your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. TheOriginalSoni ( talk) 11:24, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I noticed you have done several re-assessments for the above project, the last one 10 months ago. Are you the only one doing them, because the one you did 10 months ago is the last one in the archive? Can you , if you are not able to do them anymore, possibly point me in the direction of someone who can? I don't feel I have the experience to do them myself as of yet.
