[edit] Barranquilla
The information about Barranquilla, within the guidelines of wikipedia doesn't give any "make-sense" intro, please take a few minutes to read thru the Wikipedia:Guide to layout, there should be a subfield for history, and the author should at least make some of the afirmations made verifiable. As a city article its intro should have a foundation date! --Don Quijote's Sancho 01:15, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks, Fellow Granite Stater!
Thanks for joining Wikiproject New Hampshire! Please let me know if I can help you out with anything, and please let me know if there's any ways I can let you know what's going on in regards to things that need to be done to help Wikipedia, particularly in regards to our locally focused articles.
Also, I saw that you're an environmentalist, do you know Steve Shurtleff or Alex Lee? Karmafist 17:48, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry, I may have been too brief in my note, I am a business analyst for a mfg company, I am interested in protecting the environment, not an environmentalist. I don't know either Steve or Alex. SailorfromNH 01:23, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Raft_hollingsworth
Thanks for nominating this for deletion. I noticed it right after you put the Afd tag on it, and decided it was a speedy, so I just deleted it. When an article about a person does not assert the importance of that person, you can put a {{nn-bio}} tag on it for speedy deletion if you want. Friday (talk) 00:39, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hi, in response to your note about Afd, I don't see anything that looks obviously wrong in the instructions. But then again, I remember finding it confusing when I first did it also. My best suggestion is, try it. The worst that'll happen is you'll do it incorrectly, but it won't be a big deal. Generally, someone else will fix it even if you can't. If you try an afd and something goes wrong, drop me a note and if I'm around I'll fix it for you and leave you a note explaining how you went wrong. Hope this helps.

[edit] Afd practice
If you want to practice, I think A.D.D may be a good candidate. Friday (talk) 02:09, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] A New Hampshire Stub Is Up For Deletion!
Hey, just wanted to let you know. A stub that assists people editing New Hampshire related articles is up for deletion at WP:SFD. karmafist 04:03, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tip, I put in my vote. That stub is not assigned to a large number of articles, should we look for more articles to tag with it while the discussion is still going on? SailorfromNH 16:36, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
From your comment on the vote on this stub redirect I think you may have mistaken what is being voted on there. {{New Hampshire-stub}} is a redirect to the stub template {{NewHampshire-stub}}. Only the redirect is being considered for deletion, not the template. The redirect has been nominated because it contradicts the naming guidelines for stub templates.

[edit] James Ward Wood AfD copyright
- Thanks for your note re James Ward Wood. User:Sulfur tracked down the copyvio and identified it as such in the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Ward Wood debate. I just followed his lead. Capitalistroadster 02:02, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alejandro Manuel Iglesias
Since you prodded it, thought you'd like to know that Alejandro Manuel Iglesias is at AfD. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alejandro Manuel Iglesias. NickelShoe 23:26, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your page move request
I noticed your page move request today. I was bold and made the move myself, as virtually any registered user could have done. It's nice to ask, but there's no specific need to vote on unobstructed moves like this. At the top of all article pages there is a tab labeled "Move" — if you click this tab, you will be taken to a new page where you can enter the name of the page to which you wish to move the current article. As long as there is no history on the target page (meaning there is not more than one edit if the target page already exists), even a registered non-admin user can make the move. Thought I'd let you know for future reference. :-) ⇒ BRossow T/C 21:21, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
