User talk:NerdyNSK

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

When discussing with me over the wiki, please bear in mind that I prefer your replies to be put on my talk page, rather than the talk page where my message is, except for article and Wikipedia talk pages. Thanks.

Hi, NerdyNSK, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay.

You may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset.

If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions.

For help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style.

If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ.

If you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)!

There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library.

Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal.

Feel free to post questions on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.

You may want to add yourself to the new user log.

If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

On IRC, check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.Kf4bdy talk contribs

[edit] Welcome to WikiProject CS

Hi! Just noticed that you have signed on as a participant in WikiProject Computer science, and wanted to welcome you to the project. Please stop by the project talk page to see what the other participants have on their minds right now, and to add your own thoughts. --Allan McInnes (talk) 18:00, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia, and even a short summary is better than no summary. Thanks. Picaroon9288 01:38, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please support complement EU !!!

Hi,as a EU supporter maybe you´d like to support this: I´m trying to implement the 'EU' in the city-templates of European city articles. The EU should be mentioned next to the country; like country : Spain / EU Please support the enhancement in these templates and argue for the innovation if you want to. Would be great.

all the best Lear 21 22:43, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind words.

Our lab is trying to contribute to the OLPC (aka $100 laptop) effort. I'd welcome your help. If you're interested, consider creating a Greek demo of an educational application; probably based on the Squeak platform <http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Squeak>. In this way you can work on your own machine, and then we can then demo it on the actual OLPC hardware.

[edit] Tor Lillqvist

A tag has been placed on Tor Lillqvist, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Angus McLellan (Talk) 15:27, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I've restored the article and moved it to User:NerdyNSK/Tor Lillqvist. J Di talk 12:09, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much, J Di! NerdyNSK 13:48, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome. If you believe that Lillqvist merits an article, you can ask at WP:DRV for it to be undeleted. I suspect that the article wouldn't survive at WP:AFD, but you can certainly ask for other opinions. Very best wishes, Angus McLellan (Talk) 13:51, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nea Potidea

I created a Nea Potidea article:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nea_Potidea Could you please take a look at it and edit it? and Could you also put it into catagories? Also can you tag http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potidaea as the main article? Thanks! Neptunekh 07:27, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Translation Request

The article Velanidia (Laconia), Greece has been put on the English Wikipedia written entirely in Greek. It has been proposed for deletion for this reason. Can you look at it, and if worth saving, remove the {{tl:prod}} template and translate? Thanks. (I picked you from the bottom of the list at Wikipedia:Translators available#Greek-to-English.

[edit] AfD Alert

An editor has nominated the article Meanings of asteroid names (139001-140000) for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Meanings of asteroid names (139001-140000). Add four tildes like this ˜˜˜˜ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Meanings of asteroid names (139001-140000) during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate.

[edit] UCFD

I have nominated Category:Wikipedians in the American Telecommuting Association, a category you created, for deletion. You can contribute to the discussion at Wikipedia:User categories for discussion. Thanks, VegaDark 11:17, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Free Software

Hi NerdyNSK, I notice that you're interested in open-source/free software. Please consider joining WikiProject Free Software. We're just starting out, and we could really use some members. Thanks! Geekman314(contact me) 18:27, 16 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 21:42, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Canadian Telework Association

An editor has nominated Canadian Telework Association, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Canadian Telework Association and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.
