You may want to take a look at the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages.

Here are some links I've found useful:

Also: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your username and the time after your comments. Signing with three tildes ~~~ will just sign your username.

Your commas

edit

You have been inserting unnecessary commas into several articles. Is this a crusade? Moriori 03:01, 29 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I just thought I was correcting grammar. My English textbook says that is the correct way. — Galaeron Nihmedu 02:52, 30 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
It says to insert commas when using the month/day/year format. The example it gives is the following: "Hawaii achieved statehood on August 21, 1959, and became the fiftieth state. [Notice that a comma separates the final item in a date (1959) from the words that follow it.]"
The second example is this: "Write to me at 423 Twentieth Street, Salt Lake City, UT 84101-0423, after the first of May. [Notice that a comma separates the final item in an address (84101-0423) from the words that follow it.]"
The textbook is the Holt Handbook (ISBN 0-03-065287-1), published in 2003, and written by John E. Warriner. This particular issue about grammar is trivial, however, so I don't want to make a big deal about it. — Galaeron Nihmedu 03:22, 30 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
This particular issue is about Wikipedia style, not someone else's. Wikipedia does not use a comma after the year (see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)) and in some cases does not use a comma between day/month and year. Moriori 22:40, 2 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Belephron (Belaphron)

edit

Hi there, I noticed that in Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark, when you encounter Grimgnaw in Cania, one of his followers is a lich named Belaphron. I remember fighting a lich named Belephron, I believe, in either the original NWN campaign or Shadows of Undrentide and this lich is probably meant to be the same one, though the name was altered a little, but I can't remember exactly where I fought him. If you know what I'm talking about, could you please fill me in so that I can write an entry about Belephron? Thanks.--Rouge Rosado Oui? 21:44, 2 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Dartz

Because it is redundant with the presence of "Manga and Anime villains", which is a subcategory of "Television villains". You do not put a subcategory with a parent category in articles. 02:38, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletes

edit

Hello! Just wanted to let you know that when you nominate an article for speedy-deletion, you must give a reason. See the criteria for speedy deletion for more details. -- P.B. Pilhet / Talk 02:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I just thought it was obvious if a new article's only content is "This cd is awesome! I love the song GROWN UP CHRISTMAS LIST!!!!!!!" — Galaeron Nihmedu 02:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

CSD

edit

Why shouldn't it be a speedy? It doesn't meet WP:N. Please advise- Tlim7882 10:47, 1 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well, it is not about a person, group, company, or web content, and there are plenty of other articles on Wikipedia about schools. {{subst:afd}} allows people to discuss whether the article should be deleted or not. — Galaeron Nihmedu 10:53, 1 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

The inclusion of topics on Wikipedia is a reflection of whether those topics have been included in reliable published works. Other authors, scholars, or journalists have decided whether to give attention to a topic, and in their expertise have researched and checked the information about it. Thus, the primary notability criterion is a way to determine whether "the world" has judged a topic to be notable. This is unrelated to whether a Wikipedia editor personally finds the subject remarkable or worthy.

Yes, that's what AFD is for. — Galaeron Nihmedu 11:03, 1 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Re: RC Patrolling

edit

Darn, you keep reverting before I have a chance to. What Internet service do you use? — Quin 06:52, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

NTL:Telewest (recently acquired by Virgin Media); it's broadband, but it's not particularly fast, I get error pages and slow loading times now and then like everyone else. The trick is to go after the subtle vandalism; I'm using software a bit like VandalProof, and it picks out the obvious stuff so I can revert it quickly. Subtle stuff I don't get to so fast – Qxz 06:56, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Chembox new

edit

Hi, I see you are adding items to the {{chembox new}}. I am sorry, but most of these should be added to the sub-templates, and not to the main-section (to keep the formatting and layout consistent). The items that are still available in the main-template are there only for historic reasons, and will be removed after I have done a cleanup of the pages that use chembox new. I will move them later into the sub-templates. Hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra T C 07:17, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ah, thanks for the notice. — Quin 20:54, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. And good to meet you again.

Howdy

edit

Allo.
I wouldn't normally bother leaving a message for someone just because I reverted them, but in this case, your edit (here) was both logical and in good-faith, so I figured I owed you an explanation. "Effect", though usually misused when used as a verb, can still sometimes be accurately used as a verb; specifically, when it's used to express causation or instigation. In this case, if you "bring about change", or, "cause change", then you are "effecting change". Anyways, just thought I'd mention it. Have a nifty day. Bladestorm 14:34, 7 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:The Sorcerer.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:The Sorcerer.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 01:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Template:EINECSCASNO

A tag has been placed on Template:EINECSCASNO requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
