Hi, I noticed that your first entry said that you didn't know how to cite sources or add boxes. It looks like you've done a pretty nice job of wikifying the article :-) Some of the links above should help with questions of how to do things in Wikipedia; please feel free to leave a note on my user talk page if you need any help Brian 10:01, 24 June 2006 (UTC)btball

[edit] Henning A. Blomen

Hi Mike, I cleaned up your Henning A. Blomen article a bit and fixed the citation you had. I used {{cite news}} for your reference and if you need any more help with citations, see Wikipedia:Citing sources or just ask me. Thanks for all your help! -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:41, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear Mikedow,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen 12:00, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Edits to WTCN-CA

I noticed you added some refrences, on the bottom of the article, that cite some parts of the article. While this new information is helpful, it would be a good idea to link those refrences with real outside sources. You do cite where the information was found, but there are no links to confirm this. Adding links would help keep the article up to date with verified information. Sam 07:55, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kathleen Troia McFarland

Hi Mike. You recreated the above article that had been deleted through AfD because the subject was not notable. Your comment on the talk page indicated that you did not understand that it had been deleted through this process. If you disagree with this action you are free to bring it to WP:DRV. Best, JChap T/E 00:12, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I copied the comment you placed at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Kathleen Troia McFarland to DRV. You might want to go there and make a case to overturn deletion after reading WP:BIO. You could also take a look at Wikipedia:Candidates and elections, but so far this is only a proposed policy. Best, JChap T/E 14:25, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: WEAT

No problem. I do listen to it almost every day so I noticed that. Flipping words around sometimes me to happens too. =) Copyediting is fun for me anyways. I was creating other Florida radio stations (WLDI-FM, WOLL-FM, and WRMF-FM) and just happened upon WEAT. On another note, I assume you live on the southern end of Florida? Just curious. --AndreniW 19:08, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
