[edit] Kappa Upsilon Chi
Who did you talk to since you said you had confirmation from officials at Kappa Upsilon Chi. I called one of the Board of Directors and he instructed me to change the trivia and history back and we would like to correct the person who gave you any form of an unauthorized confirmation.
[edit] Christian Fraternity Category
Can you make a Wiki ring similar to one for IFC or Panhellenic for Christian Greek Organizations? I have no idea how to do that.
Thanks man! Jczup 15:07, 14 June 2006 (UTC)jczup
[edit] New articles
Please don't make a whole bunch of new articles with no actual content in them. If you want to make a list of articles which are needed in your userspace, do that. Write the articles when you have time to actually write them. I'm going to WP:PROD them now, instead of speedying them, however be aware that they may be speedy-deleted. Mak (talk) 03:12, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Please see WP:STUB. The articles you were creating were not substantial enough even to be called stubs, since they contained absolutely no information specific to the specific article. Stubs are good. Pages with only templates and stub notices in them are not so good. Mak (talk) 20:28, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tennessee spam
See [1] and [2]. -Will Beback 20:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks -- I was just curious
- That's quite alright - you shouldn't hesitate to question edits that look odd. Cheers, -Will Beback 21:58, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re:AFDs?
You said: I'm curious: if you're not an admin, how do you have authority to delete? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Diezba (talk • contribs).
- I don't have the delete privilege assigned to my account. What are you talking about? Alphachimp talk 03:17, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
- A wikify tag isn't so much a statement that "this page violates policy", as it is a suggestion that the stylistic and title elements of the page need to be fixed. This could also extend to the inclusion of information that is not necessary for wikipedia (e.g. the founders of the frat). Although a talk page mention is suggested in the template, editors rarely use the talk page for the cleanup or wikify tags. I hope that helps. Alphachimp talk 03:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
- Never mind. That definition is different from the one I was using. No worries. It wasn't a condemnation of the article. Alphachimp talk 03:23, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also push 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!Alphachimp talk 03:36, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] wiki-marxists
This is a request for immediate help from Kmaguir1 07:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC). If you have time, I'd like you to examine the Bell Hooks article and talk page. It's a scholarly article about a controversial writer, someone who drew the ire of a conservative commentator. They wanted me to go get the quote from her book, and I did that. But now, they're arguing it's not notable. As a follower of Wikipedia, you will know that of all the meaningless academic trivia included on her page, that what they wanted to exclude was really ridiculous: that she says as an opening to her book, Killing Rage, "I am writing this essay sitting beside an anonymous white male that I long to murder". This may in itself be notable, but David Horowitz wrote about it in 100 Dangerous Professors, and it was written about on front page mag, and all the citations are given on the page. I would appreciate your help--I'm contending with some very difficult Marxists who are attached to her work, and think that they're defending the liberal cause, but really, they're just keeping out material that is very easily notable.-Kmaguir1 07:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
- Greetings. In the interest of disclosure, I'd like to inform you of a conduct RfC on Kmaguir1. It's here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Kmaguir1. If you have time and are so inclined, feel free to provide comments there. Meanwhile, if you go to the bell hooks page, please do join in the discussion. If you read the Talk page and look at my and others' edit histories, you'll see that the picture is not quite as Kmaguir1 paints it. (I have no idea who the Marxists are he's referring to, and I've also edited his text for improvement, and left it in the article, vs. what he's saying here.)
- Bottom line: welcome to bell hooks, be aware of the RfC, and feel free to join it. Cheers,--Anthony Krupp 17:26, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
