Hello,
With a view of keeping discussion on-topic and focused solely towards future courses of action, I have BOLDLY collapsed a discussion involving you at TAFI. In case you think there are valid points with respect to what can be done now that are also collapsed, I request you to re-state only those points outside the collapsed box.

Getting back to the main page. I want to do some changes to the main page. Both graphic and content. I will be adding a section to an existing Editor Retention project and moving some content to the "Page two" to clear up space without losing anything. I have also proposed also new WikiProject on the editor retention talk page that would also be a new module for WER main page.
I would like to get input and contributions from a few people but basically want to emulate the EOTW template art and feel by replacing the W with the out reaching hands with the EOTW logo designed for us by Kelvinsong. Probably make new barnstars etc. and not override the old ones. I also wondered if the tabs could be edited for a different appearance?-- Mark Miller ( talk) 22:06, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
I feel that the short amount of content on page 2 should be merged to the project's main page, so I've boldly performed this. Moving more content to page 2 almost guarantees that nobody will view or read it. Note that most, if not all of the recent pages views in November 2013 to page 2 are those that I recently performed. I'll also shorten the project's main page without removing any content there. Northamerica1000 (talk) 04:13, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Hello Northamerica1000,
I'm new to Wikipedia and I'm not sure how to link to the submission. "If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, or on the reviewer's talk page. Please remember to link to the submission!" What is the link to my submission supposed to look like? When I click on the link it seems like a blank talk page.
My sandbox is here though: /info/en/?search=User:Fancy2635/sandbox
I was hoping we could discuss my recent application for an article on the actor Chris Broyles. He has narrated How Do They Do It [1] on the Science channel since it's debut in 2007. (The show does have a Wiki entry which is out of date and some of the info inaccurate.) The show is in it's 10th season and is currently on Thursday evenings at 10:00pm on the Science Channel. It also repeats a lot including marathons of many episodes through out the week especially on weekends.
Chris Broyles has narrated over 150 episodes of that show alone. He's done a lot of other work including Colossal Construction on the Science Channel as well as two mini series on the Military Channel (which I'm sure will get filled in later). But being the voice of a current and popluar TV show that has been on the air for 7 years should be enough to make him notable... wouldn't you agree?
There are other "Voice Actors" that have Wikipedia articles that have much less in the way of credits andd their references on some are sketchy rather than official. For instance, the only reference on the following page for Robert Gorman is the voice actor's resume on his own website. (FYI I picked Robert Gorman at random from the Voice Actors list on Wikipedia. /info/en/?search=Robert_O%27Gorman
Would it help if I provided more biographical information? I know of a lot more credits for acting and voice over work that he's done. I don't have any articles that have been written about him. But I've noticed on voice actors wiki pages like Robert Gorman above that they don't have any articles either.
Thanks for your time on and help on getting this article published. I look forward to your response. :-)

Hi NA1K! Thank you for reviewing my submission on Kuttner's tumor. I started writing it because in some random article, "Kuttner's Tumor" appeared in red font (meaning, as you know, no corresponding page). I understand why you rejected it, but the subject page you pointed to is a stub, and the 'chronic' subsection is not well-referenced or complete at all. Now, I could shoehorn my submission into that subsection, but it would look odd - since the other subsections also suffer from a paucity of information. My goal was to highlight on the term Kuttner's tumor; so, under the circumstances, what would you recommend? Best, Suirauqa ( talk) 20:21, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Dear Northamerica1000,
first of all thank you very much for reviewing my article concerning Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey GmbH. Unfortunately you wrote that you couldn't move the article for creation because it would already exist under the name Lufthansa Technik which irritated me a bit. Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey GmbH is an own autonomic company in the sense of the German Commercial Code, which means that they act on their own risk. Lufthansa Technik as the parent company just owns enough voting stock to control the management and operations by influencing or electing its board of directors. But in the legal sense these are two different companies. In this case there are the same circumstances like General Motors and Opel or United Technologies Corporation and Pratt & Whitney in which case the articles of the parent company is strictly distinguished from the subsidary. Maybe you were misled by the keyword "owner" in the infobox which I changed now to "Parent" to make it more appropriate. I would appreaciate it a lot if you would have a look at that subject again. Thanks for your help on getting Wikipedia better and better. I look forward to your response.
Best regards

As you recognized this article was submitted before by username LTAA1987, which was primary declined because the username seemed to imply that the user is writing on behalf of something other than itself which was not my intention as an independant and fact based wikipedian author. So the previous reviewer Alexf suggested to create a new account which complies with the username policy and resubmit the article again. At the same time he blocked user LTAA1987, so that it was impossible to withdraw the article to get it out of the submission process. Maybe you can help to delete the first draft (Articles for creation/Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey GmbH) created by LTAA1987. After creating the new account I worked on the second reason the article was declined, the reliable sources to qualify the topic's notability. In this context I worked hard on improving the article by adding numerous third-party references to verify the facts. I'm glad about your help to make the article sequentially better and better. If you have further recommendation, please let me know. I would really appreciate if you could help me by adjusting the topic trouble. Thank you very much in advance!

Hi,
Thanks for reviewing my article (Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Salutica Allied Solutions). I have edited the reference to third parties source to make the contents verifiable. However, I can't see any link for me to resubmit my article. Can you help? Thanks.

The last time that I read this article was in 1980. Who owns the copyright? I will ask the copyright owner for permission to publish the article. Otherwise, I am afraid that a very well-written and poignant article describing the early years of computing will disappear (which is still relevant today - just look at what is going on with ObamaCare's registration.)
And, BTW, there is a lot of material on Wikipedia that is "copyrighted" or originally published from other sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IreneW123 ( talk • contribs) 03:42, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
Hello!
I'm yramberg.
You declined an article I submitted for review ( https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Server_SAN) for lack of notability of the subject matter. I can't argue with this -- the term 'Server SAN' has not been established as a notable concept and is, therefore, reject-able on the grounds you cited. I accept your reasoning.
I do have a question, though: Is 'notability' establish-able only by (reliable, independent, verifiable, etc.) source references that use the specific term? Will the presence of ample discussion of the *topic* suffice? Usage of multitude of terms that are almost synonyms and are covering the same topic, but not exactly under this particular term?
Another: Will this particular entry be acceptable as a section under a different, more general/abstract entry that covers the field under discussion? For example I'm thinking about this: /info/en/?search=Storage_virtualization (but others may also be relevant)
Much thanx!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

![]() | On 29 December 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Chicken George (restaurant chain), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Theodore Holmes spent $750,000 developing the chicken products for Chicken George restaurants? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Chicken George (restaurant chain). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
