SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

CyberArmy Deletion
Greetings PeaceNT.
On behalf of The CyberArmy, I approach you regarding the deletion of Cyberarmy. Although the entry has been neglected somewhat over the past couple of months, we feel the CyberArmy has enough notability to warrent its inclusion in Wikipedia. The reason for its deletion was: "No assertion of notability. No statement of what makes this web community any different from any other similar one. What it says it does or has done is great, but there's no proof that it has done such. An open ...".
I'd like to make a loose comparison to a similar community with an entry here, which started 5 years after CyberArmy - Hackthissite. HTS is both similar and dissimilar to The CyberArmy; The main difference between the two being that HTS is a community more for newcomers to the IT security 'scene' - while CyberArmy caters for a wide spectrum of users. Additionally, CyberArmy and/or its members have been published on notable websites, and mainstream IT magazines as well as newsgroups since its official organisational birth in 1998 and at was the pioneer of such web-based communities. But not just such communities, CyberArmy was one of - if not /the/ most well-known pioneer of web-based "hacker" challanges which were materialised as 'Zebulun' (And now have the modern incarnate known as 'Sered'), as a lot of the Bulletin Board Systems were dying. CyberArmy also has a similar end-goal as Wikipedia: Internet Self-Regulation. It actively opposes the oppressive regulation of information and other content available online. All of this, in my opinion makes CyberArmy unique - even perhaps a black sheep amongst the other communities, as it has been around for 10 years... but the collective values stand strong and diverse.
If necessary, we will supply sources and citations to support the importance of CyberArmy in the Internet's history and hope that you will learn why the community deserves a place within Wikipedia.
Thank you in advance,
Responding Towards Help Answer
You have recently told me that my rollbacking rights will be preserved if I change username (on the Wikipedia:Help_desk), however, if that fails, my new account will hopefully be User:Limideen so if this does not have rollbacking rights, please grant it to do so!! As you saw, I am currently a rollbacker and am NOT just trying to trick you into giving a random account rollbacking rights! A Cool Editor (talk) 10:02, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
One of the advantages of not having many supporters at your RFA is that there are fewer people to thank at the end. Thanks for your support and your willingness to look at my complete record. I'm going to try to interpret this resounding defeat as a statement that I should choose my words more carefully in the future, and remember that every statement I make gets recorded forever, just waiting to get carefully transcribed onto my next RFA. I would go insane if I believed that it was repudiation of what I truly meant: that no editor should consciously and willfully ignore guidelines and policies, and editors that repeatedly do so should not be rewarded for or supported in doing so.
I'm sure I'll get back to full speed editing soon, because, after all, , every day, and in every way, I am getting better and better.—Kww(talk) 05:47, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
Love you to death
Thanks for the extra infromation. I assumed it must have been a mistake, so thanks for the correction. The only extra thing I would ask is whether the title is the original, generally these are prefered rather than later change however "official". :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:47, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- Whichever way you redirect don't forget the talk page as well. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:49, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Babs and Buster Bunny Question
Hi there, quick question about this close. The issue for most was they just were nommed separately and when they didn't close the way they wanted, they renommed as a group some the same day (see here for one discussion). I don't think relisting again is going to achieve anything other than people getting fed up with the same topics on AfD all the time. Don't get me wrong, I don't think the consensus was anything but 'there isn't one', I just don't think endless re-nomming is going to accomplush anything. Thoughts? StarM 16:28, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- Good points, thanks! More research is ideal and who knows, maybe some should stay and some should go but I hope all learned that the bull dozer approach isn't going to work for fiction. I admire people's passion for the subject, I give them that. StarM 17:32, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

My involvement in this article came about as a result of a query on WT:FOOTY - see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football#Harry McGregor (footballer). User:Heightwatcher had over-written the original Harry McGregor (footballer) article, which was about a young player from Dunfermline Athletic, with a biography of a goalkeeper from Dundee United. I advised that this shouldn't have been done, and created the present Harry McGregor (goalkeeper) article by copying the then content of Harry McGregor (footballer) and then restoring the original content to that page.
Subsequently, Harry McGregor (footballer) was the subject of an AfD and was eventually deleted. The edit history of the Harry McGregor (footballer) article which relates to the Harry McGregor (goalkeeper) article presumably starts from the first edit by User:Heightwatcher on 19 November 2008 until I got involved.
I hope this all makes sense. Best wishes. --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 05:27, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello
I respect Wikipedia's policy. I am thinking how to rewrite the article titled Sufi Dynasty. Thanks. --Enerelt (talk) 01:51, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
Capitalization of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
Hi there! In August 2007, you moved the page rational emotive behavior therapy to Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy. There's a discussion here about the correct way to write this and other forms of psychotherapy; from what I can tell from MOS:CAPS, it should be all lowercase. Would you care to weigh in on this? Thanks! /skagedaltalk 14:25, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, I see! Thanks! /skagedaltalk 18:47, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
