No original research

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Paris Hilton, but we regretfully cannot accept original research.

Thanks for your efforts, and happy editing! --Yamla 22:15, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Vipex Performance

A tag has been placed on Vipex Performance, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. CIreland 09:32, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Denominations of Christianity template

I have added a valid footer to the bottom of the incomplete 'Denominations of Canada' template so that it does not prevent the 'Denominations of Christianity' template from displaying correctly. If you are working on other similar 'Denominations of...' templates, please ensure they do not impact the presentation of the wrapper template.--Jeffro77 (talk) 09:30, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Shimmy (song)

I have nominated Shimmy (song), an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shimmy (song) (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Radiant chains (talk) 08:28, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi Bloodknight.
I'm a bit concerned about some of your recent edits, mostly these two personal attacks on an editor who has done nothing wrong. As you said yourself, you've been here since 2006, so you should know better. If you disagree with an someone's edits, please try to discuss them civilly.
Following that info message about removing AfD notices, which I agree is not really appropriate for an editor who has been here for three years, but which did expressed a valid concern, you two seem to have met on a couple more articles. FWIW, File:Asal 2.jpg is most probably a copyright violation, and none of the urls provided by the uploader can verify that it was released under a free license, and that it can be used here. I'm not sure why you removed the tag, have you found anything on those pages indicating the copyright status that I'm missing? If it wasn't released under a free license it will have to be deleted, otherwise the Wikimedia Foundation (and the uploader) could get into legal trouble. Similarily, with Image:BertaTHM 23.jpg, an image which is clearly not free, the only way it can be used here is if a fair use rationale is given. You removing the notice in the article will make it far less likely that an editor of the article will pick up on the problem, and fix it by providing a rationale before the image is deleted.
Lastly, the image you removed from diff Women's American football seems very much to be an appropriate picture, I believe. It originally came from www.army.mil, and from the description there you can clearly identify the people, team and match depicted. Why do you think that this information is wrong?

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 00:48, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Excuse me...

But why did you delete my userbox on the new userboxes page? --Abce2|Howdy! 21:49, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Arthur Currie's role

The reason for noting only one commander is the simple fact that it is a corps level offensive involving a single corps whereupon command of the battle was not shared, which is consistent with First World War articles of this quality level. If this battle had involved 2 corps it would note 2 corps commander and likely the army commander. However, the attack involved 5 divisions, plus attached army level troops and artillery, under a single corps commander.

Currie certainly took a senior role amongst the divisional commanders (no debate there) but he was by no means the only voice or source of contribution. He did not for instance draft the magnificent piece of work that is the artillery battery plans, nor those of the counter-battery nor those of corps level logistics. He did not have authority over the other divisional commanders nor over troops outside of his divisional command (take this to mean army engineers and heavy artillery). Parties that have sought to present Byng and Currie as a pair at Vimy Ridge do so for more nationalistic reason in an attempt to reinvent the event as a strictly Canadian achievement, a myth that has been largely quashed (see Inglis, Vance, Sheldon, Cave, Sheffield and Vimy Ridge: A Canadian Reassessment).

The article as it stands is thoroughly cited with very high quality sources of information. If you take issue I am MORE than happy to entertain and support so long as you present sourced information of equivalent quality (academically reviewed where possible). --Labattblueboy (talk) 03:28, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Your revert comment on regarding 288596722 on Battle of Vimy Ridge was inappropriate. Debate on this topic is best resolved in the talk page or the article. Please do not seek to insert the change without collective approval. --Labattblueboy (talk) 03:43, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Fabulous! I could always use a hand in improving content. This being said, I will hold off on an assessment of your research qualities at present. --Labattblueboy (talk) 04:45, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:34, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
