[edit] Junkboy

This isn't exactly a speedy candidate because there is a bit too much info to delete it simply based on CSD:A7 (no claim of notability). That said, I don't think they meet WP:MUSIC and listing this article for AfD is certainly an option.--Isotope23 18:52, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks, I see I was too fast to jump to deletion Altosax456 20:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "reverted db"

Why did you remove the db tag from White Light Syndrome (Band)? Are you familiar with the group or something? It certainly seems a valid tag considering there's no assertion of notability...A more proper action would have been to explain in the edit summary why the db tag was invalid or place a {{hangon}} and explain in the talk page. Let me know so I can stop feelin' perplexed. Thanks, Scientizzle 04:45, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I figured it out. You (correctly) db tagged Whitelightsyndrome, which was then copied to White Light Syndrome (Band). I tagged that one for notability & then the db a minute later. I'm going to reapply db-band. I did the notability a little earlier in an effort to avoid biting. Thanks for the quick reply! -- Scientizzle 04:55, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Issue II - May 2008
From the editor:

Here's Issue II of the project newsletter. We're trying to decide if this is sinking or floating. If you would like to contribute to next month's newsletter please jump right in at the News Desk! Have a great May.
The Ohio Portal

The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images.
Selected Article: Indian Head Rock

There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it.
With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value.
After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river.
