[edit] Fair use article
At Talk:fair use you seem to have removed, without archiving, my objections to the section Fair use#Fair use in Wikipedia in that article. Your edit summaries suggest that somehow my comments are off topic. Now, if the consensus is that I'm wrong I fully accept not changing the article (and, as you can see, I haven't yet changed it), but it doesn't make my remarks off-topic.
Please take a good look at what I wrote and consider whether you really believe I was off topic. If you decide I was not, please restore my remarks. If you decide I was, I would appreciate if you tell me where, exactly, you feel would be a more appropriate place for me to raise this question. - Jmabel | Talk 04:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- -- I not only "seem to have", I actually did. My edit, which was intended to add just the tiny bit of revised text you see at the top, somehow also took out a bunch of stuff below in different sections. Not sure how that happened since I definitely did not attempt to edit or delete that material. A very strange caching problem on my local browser? I am trying to go back and replace all the missing text that I deleted. LQ 12:07, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nicole King
I noticed this article and that it had been tagged as a speedy deletion candidate by someone. I removed the speedy tagging, as the stub had a clear assertion of notability, but you should really expand it. Unless you do, it might as well be deleted because of lack of meaningful content.

- Thanks, I'm working on it. I was a little surprised to get the notice of speedy deletion only five minutes after I added the initial entry. Individual entries for every single Playmate of the Month have managed to survive indefinitely without challenge, so I was a little surprised to see that an entry on an exciting woman scientist challenged within 5 minutes. -- LQ 17:38, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: CTEA/Opposition references
Well I started going through the article looking for unsourced facts and I put {{fact}} after each one. I then realized that I would likely be doing that for quite a while if I continued. That was just the section I started on, so it was also the section I edited. I was somewhat surprised that there was no discussion of the lack of references on the talk page.

[edit] quite an assumption...
Yeah. Isn't it. But what a predictable one...

[edit] Iota Sigma Pi/rewrite
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Iota Sigma Pi/rewrite. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. —Swpb talk contribs 01:06, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Adding the {{db-author}} tag automatically lists the page on a list of pages nominated for speedy deletion, so it will be taken care of more quickly, and this is potentially less confusing in the meantime than a blank page. —Swpb talk contribs 02:32, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
