User talk:The Singing Badger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikipediholicism is a terrible affliction. It destroys families and brings down governments. Well, actually it doesn't, but it is a major cause of procrastination, so I'm going offline for a few months to see if my quality of life is improved. I plan to read printed books and write that novel.

[edit] Help Prevent Article Deletion: Religious Perspectives on Dinosaurs
Hello, I'm leaving you this message because I notice you've made at least one edit to the Wikipedia article Religious perspectives on dinosaurs. The article has recently been nominated for deletion from Wikipedia, and there is considerable support for that position.
I'm hoping you'll help me support the continued existence of the Religious perspectives on dinosaurs article by registering a keep vote on the article's request for deletion page. The article contains some good information, and represents an unobtrusive way to present notable minority viewpoints about dinosaurs that cannot reasonably be elaborated on in the parent article. It shouldn't be deleted simply because the viewpoints it presents aren't "scientific."

[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] Question on sources
Hey Badger - long time no hear. I had a question about sources. I've been reading the Wiki pages on proper sources and I am confused. I though self-published books and websites were no-no's. Recently I have seen more and more personal websites being cited as sources. Is this legit?Smatprt 15:16, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
