[edit] S.H.E.
Are you listing S.H.E. on VFD or not? Because if you're not, you need to remove the deletion notice and get an admin to delete the VFD page for the entry. --Lowellian 01:43, Oct 4, 2004 (UTC)
- I want to but I couldn't get it working properly for some reason, and then when I went back to search for the article S.H.E. there was nothing found so I thought one of the admins might have insta-deleted it. I would still like to list it as a VfD though, could you help me get it working properly? --Alex Krupp 02:01, Oct 4, 2004 (UTC)
Well...hold on. First, it's extremely unlikely that if you list this page on VFD, it will actually get deleted, and second, I will vote against the article being deleted if you list it. I'm not sure of your background, so you may not be aware that S.H.E. is a hugely popular band in East Asia (the equivalent of, say, Britney Spears in the United States), and they definitely deserve an article. We're not talking some obscure band operating out of a garage here; we're talking a group of singers with multi-million dollar contracts. Far more obscure bands than S.H.E. have survived VFD.
Having said that, it is your right to list the article on VFD if you want, so I can help you get it working properly if you insist on going ahead with it. --Lowellian 06:41, Oct 4, 2004 (UTC) (Oh, and by the way, I generally prefer people to post responses to my comments on my talk page, because it helps get my attention.)
If you think some of the content is non-encyclopedic, either edit the content or list it on Wikipedia:Cleanup by using the {{cleanup}} tag, but do not list it on VFD unless the article should not exist at all. I've removed the VFD tag and deleted the VFD page. --Lowellian 18:14, Oct 4, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Nomic
Nomic good, on wikipedia not good. And we need more players before we start :-) But otherwise, yeah sure, why not.
Keep your eyes open for other potential players. :-)

[edit] Request for investigation (169.200.204.36)
Hello Alex3917. Concerning your request for investigation, there's no reason to indefinitely block 169.200.204.36. Except for the spam on the twentieth of March, the IP address appears to be a shared IP with mostly good contributions. // Pathoschild (admin / talk) 03:53, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] college rowing (association)
At College rowing (United States) please revise this sentence. "Washington decided to skip the IRA because of change in schedule conflicted with it finals." Does it refer to academic final exams at UW and a late(?) change in the IRA schedule? Note, in the discussion there I have noted an early college rowing association.
Recently I revised many "year in sports" articles to use a Rowing section, adding some Harvard-Yale listings along the way. Most of the rowing was Oxford-Cambridge in a Boat Race section, miscellany in Other or Events. All this concerns 1870s and earlier, as I added mainly baseball listings and made the years in sports articles more consistent from year to year.
Are you in "on" the Connecticut River? --P64 23:40, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
