User talk:Wikipediatoperfection

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I would be interested to know why it requires a different user name and password to get credit for non-English edits? It seems to me that one user name should be sufficient to edit in any language.

The various wikimedia languages are organized as separate wikis, with separate administration, rules, and authorization. If no one has claimed a particular username on a wiki, you can claim it for yourself, and use the same username and password on all wikis. There are some conveniences for easy InterWiki links, but otherwise they are independent. —EncMstr 07:17, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

{{helpme}} When I tag an article as a stub of a certain subject is is automatically listed on the page of stubs needing expansion or do I need to add it to that page?

No, you don't need to do that. It's like a category - automatic. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 20:53, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Custodial Account

Hello! I just thought I'd let you know that I've tagged the article you recently created, Custodial Account, for context. At the moment, it does not provide enough context for the article to be of any value to a reader who is not previously familiar with the subject (such as myself). It would be appreciated if you could take the time to fix that. —Keakealani·?·!·@ 19:09, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ronald Reagan

I just wanted to let you know that I understand your frustration with the Ronald Reagan article, but that if you look at the FAC and the peer review, the editors are really trying to improve it. It is just that they are self-professed conservatives, see User:Happyme22, so it is perhaps as difficult for them to write the Reagan page as it would be for us to write a page on liberal figures we admire deeply. Anyway, I have found that patience and lots of careful explanation has produced some good results. Unfortunately, liberals do not seem to want to write a page on Reagan, but I do feel that it is important for wikipedia to have a "fair and balanced" :) page on him. I would appreciate any help you can offer in this endeavor. I have been offering reviews of the page and will be copyediting and editing it from time to time. If you have sources at your fingertips, that would be fabulous; I am more of an eighteenth-century person myself. Awadewit 18:35, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
