[edit] Misspelling/capitalization

Hi. I noticed your attempt to make an article for a misspelling of Kyouji Yamamoto. The mechanism we use for this is a redirect done by inserting the code #REDIRECT [[correct name]] into the created page for the misspelling. You can automatically produce this code by clicking the button above the edit field marked "#R". Hope this helps. Some useful links are set forth in the welcome template I am posting below.--Fuhghettaboutit 12:26, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Alternate name

Hi. I noticed your attempt to make an article for an alternate name of Eliza Jakubek. The mechanism we use for this is a redirect, done by inserting the code #REDIRECT [[name of main article]] into the created page for the alternate name. You can automatically produce this code by clicking the button above the edit field marked "#R". Hope this helps. Some useful links are set forth in the welcome template I am posting below.--Fuhghettaboutit 00:01, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Guidance for disputing tagging

Hi ___. If you are going to argue the site is notable, please explore the relevant standard, WP:WEB. Most websites with 1,000 members have not been the subject "multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself," or any meet any other criteria for inclusion. Remember that notability has nothing to do with a judgment call here of whether we "think" the subject is notable, but whether sources out in the world have implicitly deemed it so by writing about it, giving it an award, etc., as verified through reliable sources.--

[edit] Image instructions

Note that in order to do so, if the image is yours you must release it under a free license; if it is already released under a free license, you must state the license, and if it is copyrighted, in order for it to remain you must state the copyright license and your rationale for why it's use in the specific article it is to be used in constitutes fair use.

[edit] Prod

I came across a number of articles you took to afd for deletion while doing new pages patrol and I was wondering if you were familiar with the Proposed deletion process. Basically, you add {{subst:prod|reason for deletion}} to articles the deletion of which is not controversial, such as blatant advertizing, etc. Thereafter, if the prod template remains in the article for five days it is deleted without any debate. Anyone can remove the template for any reason. If that is done, you can take the article to the far more resource intensive afd process.--Fuhghettaboutit 03:38, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcomeg for good anons

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed your recent edit to $$$ARTICLE$$$ and wanted to say hi. Here are some recommended guidelines to help you get involved. Please feel free to contact me if you need help with anything. By the way, I would recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.) Best of luck and happy editing! Fuhghettaboutit 23:07, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] defwarn for attacks

An important message

This notice has been left for you because you posted a blatant attack article defaming a named individual and it is not clear whether this is a real person or not. Comments that defame an individual may leave you open to being sued by them. While Section 230 of the United States Communications Decency Act may protect Wikipedia from being sued for defamation, it may not protect the person who posted a defamatory claim on a Wikipedia page. The Wikimedia Foundation's Board of Trustees has ruled that: "Where the user has been vandalizing articles or persistently behaving in a disruptive way, [personal information] data may be released to assist in the targeting of IP blocks, or to assist in the formulation of a complaint to relevant Internet Service Providers."

[edit] Userfy messages

Hi NAME. Welcome to Wikipedia! I have placed the text from your article, ARTICLE on your userpage, so you don't lose it, and have nominated that article for speedy deletion, as it appears to be about either you or a person you personally know, but not about a subject notable enough for inclusion in the article space of Wikipedia which is, after all, an encyclopedia. Please see WP:VAIN, WP:AUTO and Wikipedia:notability for more on this topic.

Hi! I noticed your article, ????? and assume that is you. Every user is given a userpage where they are pretty much free to post content about themselves. I have placed the content of the article listed above on your userpage which you can access by clicking on "userpage" at the upper left of this screen, and nominated the article for Speedy Deletion. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia, and pages in the article space must be on subjects worthy of encyclopedic treatment which I don't think includes you or me. For more on notability and articles about yourself, please see: WP:BIO, WP:AUTO and WP:VAIN.

Hi!. I noticed your article on ????? and assume that is you. However, pages about non-famous people are not normally notable enough to be the subject of articles on Wikipedia, as it is an encyclopedia, not a webhosting service or blog. However, every user can post pretty much anything they'd like to on their user page. Yours is accessible by clicking on "user page" above. You can post all the content from the article their. For more on notability and articles about yourself, please see: WP:BIO, WP:AUTO and WP:VAIN. Some useful links are set forth below.

[edit] verror-specific + links

Please don't deliberately introduce incorrect information into articles as did to List of billionaires (2006). It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Some useful links for using Wikipedia are set forth below:

[edit] inuse-message

I placed a speedy delete tag on your ARTICLE article because when you posted it it had no content. You might, in the future, find this tag helpful, {{inuse}}. Just click on it to see what it would format to look like if you placed it in an almost empty article so that editors would see the article was actively being worked on.

[edit] DicDef - Constructive though not-notable

Note that your recent article on ARTICLE, though an obvious attempt at a constructive contribution to Wikipedia, likely does not meet our inclusion standards as it is a dictionary definition. It might be more appropriate on Wiktionary --~~~~

[edit] {{selftest}} integrated with {{ip}}

Welcome, and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia! Your test in List of billionaires (2006) worked, and thank you for removing it yourself. The best way to do tests in the future would be to use the sandbox. You can look at these pages as well: how to edit a page, the tutorial, and how to write a great article. All of these pages are good places to start.

Note that you don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and gives you many benefits, including:

We hope you enjoy your time here on Wikipedia and that you choose to become a Wikipedian by creating an account. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, make sure to sign your posts and comments with ~~~~, which will let others know who left it.

[edit] link formatting instructions

You probably know that you can link to other articles in this encylopedia by surrounding the name of an article with double brackets ([[article name]]) You can't link directly to most other wiki projects except with an external link. To make an external link just type the url like this: http://www.example.org. To make it appear just as a citation link, type the url in single brackets [http://www.example.org] which will format like this:[1], and to make a piece of text link straight to the site and look like a normal wikilink, the same as the last but put a space after the url and type the text you want linked: [http://www.example.org linked text] which would look like this: linked text. Clicking this link will take you to a tutorial on using wikipedia and how to use its markup. --Fuhghettaboutit 08:27, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] how to start an article

Hi NAME. Instructions on starting an article is explained on Starting a new page. You might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article.

Hmmm, now that the issue has been raised maybe we can come come up with a solution. How about placing just below each section header instructions with a link. For instance, for the law entry I was having trouble with: In order to edit the text below you must go to this section's associated subpages, accessible here....

Wikipedia:Pages needing attention/Social Sciences and Philosophy#Law

[edit] Reporting vandalism

You can report a vandal at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. However, you should first warn the vandal with an appropriate series of warning messages. Some templates for this can be found at Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace. Before posting there, a final warning should have been given such as {{test3}}, {{test4}} or {{blatantvandal}}) and the vandal must have vandalized within the last few hours, including after the final warning was given him or her.--

[edit] Reposting deleted content

Please stop reposting the article, NAME which was removed in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policy, it is considered vandalism. If you continue to repost the article, as you have NUMBER times, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you--Fuhghettaboutit 23:23, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Relocating user to talk

Hi. Just to let you know I found a nothanks template on User:NAME's user page that you had placed and relocated it to his talk page (and substituted it) which I'm sure it what you intended (I do the same thing occasionally). Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit 21:05, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New newpages patroller

[edit] Hello!

Hi NAME. I noticed the great work you are doing tagging new articles—not something newcomers do often. We need all the help we can get (our floodgates are leaking badly). So welcome and keep up the good work. By the way, it's a good practice to leave edit summaries. You can just copy and paste the tags you are using into the edit summary field.

Also note that it is often appropriate to leave a message on a creating user's talk page when tagging. For instance, for articles tagged as db-bio/db-band/db-group, {{nn-warn}} or {{vanity}} are useful (all of these templates, unlike the db deletion templates, should be substituted and have parameters for the name of the article being referred to in the warning, so you would format them like so: {{subst:nn-warn|name of article}}--~~~~). For clear nonsense, attacks, hoaxes, mild vandalism you can use {{test1article-n}}, (which succeeds to {{test2article-n}} and so on).

For articles that you have prodded (done by placing the {{prod}}, template like this {{subst:prod|your rationale for why the article should be deleted}}; a very useful template for newpages patrol), you can add to the author's talk page {{prodwarning}}. You can explore various templates at Wikipedia:Template messages. I hope this unsolicited advice is not unwelcome. If you have any questions about newpages patrol, or anything else, please do not hesitate to drop me a message.

[edit] Hi!

I noticed some tagging you were doing at new pages patrol. We need help so thanks! Just wanted to drop you a message about one issue. When you tag an article for speedy deletion, it really needs to fall into a specific speedy deletion criteria, which are listed at WP:CSD. There are a pretty short list of speedy deletion tags that are used often which tell you in their text the criteria they are used under (you can memorize them pretty quickly because their names tell you the criteria).

Here's a list of pretty much all of them: {{db-bio}}, {{db-group}}, {{db-web}}, {{db-nonsense}}, {{db-empty}}, {{db-nocontext}}, {{db-band}}, {{db-club}}, {{db-attack}}, {{db-repost}}, {{db-vandal}}, {{db-spam}}, {{db-copyvio|url=url of source}}, {{db-redirtypo}}, {{db-redirnone}}, {{db-blanked}} and {{db-talk}}. The article, F to C (or reverse) easy mental conversion may be a candidate for a nonsense tag or maybe a nocontext tag, but being trivial and not in need of an article, as you tagged it (which I agree with you about), aren't bases for speedy deletion. If nothing fits, the typical thing to do is to use a {{prod}} tag. If that is removed, or the deletion is controversial, the article can be listed at AFD. Cheers.

[edit] nothanks + notability =+ COI

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Central Laboratories article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Please also note that in order for a company to have an article, it must be notable; our specific criteria for corporations and companies is set forth at WP:CORP. Finally, we have a policy against article creation by self-interested parties. Please see WP:COI. Thanks and happy editing!

[edit] Hangon talk page reply

Hi ?????. Your good intentions are apparent. Let me tell you a bit about what is meant by "notable" as we use it for purposes of this encyclopedia. It does not refer to importance or fame or worth or whether we like the subject or not. It refers to whether the world at large has deemed a subject notable by making it the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works from sources that are reliable and independent of the subject itself. For more on notability, see Wikipedia:Notability. So my suggestion is that you attempt to find reliable sources which deal with this subject and cite them in the article. That is the best route to avoid deletion.
