[edit] Stone City (game)

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Stone City (game), 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 Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Stone City (game). If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] re: Mouse Surplus

Hi TheListUpdater. No need to get upset. I deleted it because I determined it to be a non-notable organization. Please take a look at WP:Notability to see if Mouse Surplus does indeed meet those criteria. If it does, I suggest you recreate the article with the assertion of notability clearly stated. If you need to work on the article in chunks, create a user subpage (e.g. User:TheListUpdater/Mouse Surplus), and move it to article space when you are ready. Let me know if you have any questions. --Fang Aili talk 22:15, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Also, if you would like the previous article's content made available to you, don't hesitate to ask. --Fang Aili talk 22:16, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Apology accepted. I moved the info to the above link. Cheers! --Fang Aili talk 01:12, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re PlayStation X

I am moving this article back to PlayStation, as the "PlayStation X" name was only used during development. --Lumina83 02:54, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PowerSchool

I noticed that on May 26, you removed the names of awards that PowerSchool has won, as well as removing the POV and advertisement tags at the top of the page. I replaced these tags because the page still seems to read like an add. Just letting you know... (I didn't change your edit at all, however) --Phantom784 02:59, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mario Paint Wii

You could {{prod}} it or send it to AfD. It's not speediable. Let me know if you need help. --Fang Aili talk 13:06, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:WTCmall.png

Thanks for uploading Image:WTCmall.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:09, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual Console (Wii)

Sure i can do that, but I'm wondering why and if you should do that. If you move Virtual Console (Wii) to Virtual Console, it will create quite a few double redirects. And its name seems ok the way it is--just a thought. I'm going to bed but I'll be online tomorrow. Cheers, Fang Aili talk 05:55, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] An article which you started, or significantly expanded, MacHack (chess), was selected for DYK!

Updated DYK query On December 29, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article MacHack (chess), which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Thanks for your contributions! ++Larbot - run by User:Lar - t/c 12:04, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Copying from another talk page. Thanks, TheListUpdater. --Susanlesch 12:51, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your RfA

Can I please invite you to accept the well-meaning advice of lots of experienced editors and withdraw you RfA? It will not succeed and withdrawing now will probably stand you in better stead when you stand again in the future. --Dweller 11:54, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Seconded. You're not the first to make this mistake, don't worry, there is no shame involved in being enthusiastic about helping out. Guy (Help!) 16:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I regret to say that I have closed your RfA early as per WP:SNOW. I have included a summary of the opinions cast in my reason for doing so, which was essentially 'get some more experience before trying again'. You have been very brave in putting yourself in the spotlight here after so short a time of editing WP. Most people wait between six-to-twelve months before trying for an RfA and they are not alway successful either. Strategies for improving your profile for another RfA include:

  1. contributing effectively to articles. This includes finding references and citations for facts in reliable sources, something that is essential for an encyclopedia.
  2. Working on the Good Article Drive, Good Article Collaboration of the week and the Article Creation and Improvement Drive.
  3. Patrolling the New pages and Recent changes special pages for vandalism; tagging the pages according to the criteria for speedy deletion and warning the vandals.
  4. Reporting repeat vandals for admin intervention.
  5. Joining a Wikiproject or finding a portal on a subject in which you are interested and contributing through that.
  6. Assisting at the Help and Reference desks.
  7. Welcoming new users.
  8. Becoming adopted or, when you are more experienced, adopting new users to assist them in learning about Wikipedia.

These are just some of the ideas for making effective contributions to the project. You can also see Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia for more ideas. Regards and good editing, (aeropagitica) 17:28, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adoption

I'd be happy to adopt you if you wish. Yonatanh 19:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I created this page for our correspondences and replied to your request. Yonatanh 06:25, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My Sims

Not only that, but after it's been shown that the DS is one of the best places to put a Sims title after the number of copies it sold on the DS in both NA and Europe. - A Link to the Past (talk)

Then put it up. It seems that you're just grudgenly against being mistaken in this situation. - A Link to the Past (talk) 23:53, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] McDonald's menu AfD

  • I appreciate your passion but I actually meant if this gets closed as Keep, I would argue to get the BK closure overturned and the article restored. Nice try on getting indignant, though. We all love the wikidrama. JuJube 22:30, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NP list

Being sourceable doesn't make it not listcruft. And the fact is that I was in a previous situation doesn't matter. You WERE just trying to be right - even knowing that it's on the DS, you respond not with "oh, alright", but with "well, I won't allow it on Wikipedia without a reference!" The statement was completely unwarranted, especially considering that you didn't admin you were wrong in this situation, but tried to keep it as a dispute.

But on-topic, a list of prizes from NP is not necessary to the Wikipedia article. - A Link to the Past (talk) 22:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Apology

I decided that I should apologize. While I did not intend to offend you, I DID offend you. Again, it was not my intent to offend you - it's just a force of habit to make such statements. - A Link to the Past (talk) 18:57, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orange Micro

Hi, Seeing as you have mentioned it in your user page, I thought it might interest you to know that I've been working on expanding the Orange Micro page. It might be helpful to know what others think of my edits.
