[edit] Message for Ewok

I saw where you were one of the major creators of the Confederation Bridge article. Also, from your user page, it is clear that you know a thing or two about photographs of great artistic value. Read what I wrote on the Confederation Bridge discussion page and tell me what you think. Hokeman 04:42, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Giant's Causeway Legend

As far as I can tell from the edit history, you created this article. It had been nominated for merger to the Giant's Causeway article for quite a while, and I have just merged it and proposed the article for speedy deletion. If you have any objections, please note them here. --Mal 21:35, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article listed for deletion

Hi Ewok Slayer,

I noticed from the Inclusionist category page that you're an inclusionist, too, so I was wondering if you would be able to do me a huge favor and possibly place a vote here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Embarazada. I added a ton to it, citing my sources. If you could, I would be greatly in your debt.

Best wishes,

[edit] List of religious leaders (twentieth century)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article List of religious leaders (twentieth century), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
