From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please stop adding production companies to the "distributor" section of the various infoboxes as you have done tonight. This placement is incorrect and continued insertions will be reverted. Thank you. MikeWazowski 05:42, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Flags

Hello. Please stop adding flags to the birth and death sections of biography infoboxes. While these were okay a year or so ago that policy has changed and per WP:FLAG they are no longer to be inserted in infoboxes. Your help in this will be much appreciated and happy editing. MarnetteD | Talk 19:52, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

I'll second that. I've just removed a load of flags that you added as well -- SteveCrook (talk) 23:57, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Why are you adding flags again when you have been requested not to? Continuing to do so can be considered vandalism for which you can be blocked. Please do not add them anymore. MarnetteD | Talk 20:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
I reverted your addition of flags to many currency articles. I would like to see a wider consensus that these add anything before you add them again. Thank you. --John (talk) 18:03, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
As a frequent editor of currency articles, I'm happy to see the flags added.

[edit] Flags in infoboxes

It seems that you have already been asked several times not to insert flag icons into infoboxes. You may want to have a look at WP:FLAGS to learn why this is inappropriate. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Cheers, faithless (speak) 11:28, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

The same also counts for flags in film articles. See WP:MOSFILM. Garion96 (talk) 21:44, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Articles for Creation

This may not represent the opinion of other Wikipedia users, but it is common practice to cite the exact webpage used when submitting an article to be created, and to use verifiable sources when authoring articles. Thanks, Nol888(Talk)(Review) 17:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I am having to decline your WP:AFC as not verifyable, becuase I cannot confirm the content by looking at those web sites - URLs are needed that point to the page. You can add the actual URL's in and I could change my mind and create, but if you want to make several articles, it is a good idea to register! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:55, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey, don't sweat it!

I never thought you were vandalizing, and I'm sure you were just trying to help. We apprecate your edits, and definitely want you to continue to contribute. But we all have to play by the rules. :) Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you; I'm always happy to help out a newbie. Have you considered creating an account?

[edit] Joe Allen Evyagotailak

Please don't add Category:Canadian politicians or Category:Politicians to articles that are already filed in one or more subcategories of those. Wikipedia doesn't do duplicate/redundant categorization. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 01:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
