Walton Controversy

I honestly don't remember much beyond that it happened and made big news. It also happened around the time that Walton was doing fairly well in sports and got recognized for academic achievement. I'll try and poke around some more tomorrow but I just started a new job at GT and just moved. I'm Drsocc on aim and Brian Lynch in real life if you actually know who I am.

Re: Extra track listing template

Hey, sorry for the revert and run, I was trying to fix at work and had to leave. The problem may be with the template, but I'm not so sure. I'm going to investigate, but I know the edit you made didn't change anything, which is why I reverted (better to attack from a preexisting angle rather than adding an unknown element). Hopefully I or someone else can quickly figure something out, or the template may have to be temporarily disabled. What I don't know is why it would all of a sudden stop working. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 23:00, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Tomoyuki Uchida

The article Tomoyuki Uchida has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No interviews or biographies available to expand/source the article

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. The Prince (talk) 20:44, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
