Don't worry about it. If you're not a sockpuppet (and you're probably not) then you will be exonerated. There has been a huge amount of disruption from a banned user lately, sorry to drag you into it. Arrow740 21:13, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Chart listings

Well including too many items in the infobox does get too daunting. Thats why I advocate limiting it to three. And like you said for quick glances, a dedicated table is more likely to catch attention that footnote-y mention in infobox. The table may be sorted by peak chart position. Wouldnt that also serve the same purpose? --soum ^talk 16:50, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Okay. I will try to find sources for Israel. If you need any help with wikisyntax, just ask. See you around. --soum ^talk 19:38, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Miguel Terrazas

Thanks for pointing out that this had already been through AfD. I was trying, given the subject matter, to delete it tactfully, giving the creator every opportunity to demonstrate notability... but if it's already done the process once, then that makes it easier. -FisherQueen (Talk) 16:38, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm not trying to memorialize him. However, I'm in the process of collecting additional information on him. I've read this "notability" requirements and only read it once quickly because I was pretty upset this morning.

I believe that LCPL Miguel Terrazas was largely ignored by the media and it didn't surprise me when an administrator expressed that it failed to meet the "notability" requirements.

There is no argument that the media is biased and there's no question about it. It bothers me to read that a Hispanic soldier didn't receive the same recognization or respect because the media referred him as a "deceased U.S. Marine" and "U.S. Marine killed in Haditha". Why? For these three Marines who were charged with the Haditha murders, the media made sure to mention their names. But LCPL Terrazas was just a deceased Marine. I was offended by this.

Had his last name ended with a "-berg", "-stein" or "-son", nobody will object. It'll be published.

I still disagree and will stand. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TXLonghorn (talk • contribs)

I am, thanks for the heads up. I haven't been on Wiki much, as I've been busy and traveling, but it is on my watchlist, and I'll try to keep an eye on it when I can. Ford MF 12:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Allegations of

Thanks for your support of changing the name... we'll see if Southern_Texas has really retired or not. While I don't like these "attack" pages, there is precident for keeping them with the name "allegations."Balloonman 06:18, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
