[edit]  !

Saboo7aa! hey man. Haven't heard from you for a while. I was hoping I'd see you in Kuwait but you left before I could get your number. But yeah. In terms of the article, I took the liberty of adding a link, which aren't required, but are helpful. In any case, just wait long enough and people will end up fixing it up for you if theres anything to fix, along with adding more information. The only things you have to worry about are vandals, which appear from time to time. I rarely edit on wikipedia anymore due to time to be honest. I usually just check my watchlist from time to time to check if anyone vandalized any pages :p. -Zer0fighta 01:13, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

You asked for comments on your article, Health care proxy. My initial reaction is to say that it's entirely US-based in its approach without making it clear early on that that's the limit of your article and you're not looking at other countries. You could start off by saying that "A health care proxy is a legal document used in the United States of America", for example, and that would let the reader know straight away what is covered in the article. I would imagine that the concept is found in other legal systems, and the topic may even be covered by other similar articles on Wikipedia. Perhaps you could have a hunt for them and link them to your article. Otherwise, apart from suggesting that you put the article in some appropriate categories, it's a good start! (If you can't think what categories it should be in, just add {{categorize}} at the top or bottom of the article, and someone will be along in due course to have a look.

No problem. Wikipedia gets addictive, as I'm finding out - I'm currently researching a London secondary school that I know nothing about because I saw that a previous editor had put a "clean=up" tag on the page! If I don't know the answer, I'm sure someone else will - I've not been active for very long myself. Enjoy! Bencherlite 22:30, 17 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Categories

Sorry not to reply to your question about how to find out what categories there are sooner. What a good question! I've had a hunt around myself, and found this: Category:Fundamental which works as a "tree" of categories, allowing you to gradually get closer and closer to the topic. Also WP:CATP is looking for volunteers sorting out categories, and I'm sure an extra pair of hands would be greatly appreciated. CAT:NOCAT has some other links and tips as well.
