[edit] Tags & Deletion Warnings
Looking at some of your edits, it seems you are using the wrong tags on articles that might be candidates for deletion. The "notalot" tag is for image files, not articles [1]. You should use a speedy deletion tag for articles. (Although this article seems acceptable as a stub, and probably doesn't need any warning). You are not an administrator, and you cannot just put a "deleted" tag on a page like you did here [2]. Further, warnings for editors should go on their talk page, not their main page, as you did here [3]. I haven't gone through all your edits, but I'm concerned that you are not following guidelines. Please read the relevant policies. For starters: WP:RULES, WP:DEL, WP:SD. --mtz206 02:36, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- Also, please don't make your own templates. You should use the various ones that can be found throughout WP, including here: WP:TEMP. This is especially important because adding the proper templates often will list the article on other sections of WP so others can give it proper attention. --mtz206 02:53, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Help I didnt do it!!
- Your username doesn't appear to be blocked, so, as the template message above states, please post your IP address so an administer can take action. --mtz206 (talk) 18:18, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikiproject Automobiles Notification
Hi Joler1, you were on the list of members at WikiProject Automobiles and we are introducing a new way of listing members, as the old list was becoming too long. Our new method involves having all of our members in a category.
To add yourself to the category just add the userbox to your user page by putting {{Wiki Auto Project}} where you want the userbox. Alternatively if you don't like the userbox you can add [[Category:WikiProject Automobiles members|Joler1]] to your userpage.
If you no longer wish to be a member of the project, simply don't add the userbox or category, there's no pressure. Thanks for your time, James086Talk | Contribs 04:05, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
