[edit] WikiProject Disambiguation Talk RequestThis is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 22:40, 9 October 2006 (UTC) [edit] Enforce inclusion of categoriesHi, I just read these comments. Since you started this request I was hoping you have some info on the status. Cheers, Garion96 (talk) 13:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC) [edit] Champagne wines
 Salutations BD2412!
[edit] {{deletedpage}}Don't worry about it, you are allowed to forget things. ;-) (I just came back from a pretty long wikibreak, and forgot things myself). Good to see you, and since you are one of the useful editors (i.e. actually writes things, unlike myself), I was wondering if you could take a look at the pages Cryogenic processor and CryoTech. They currently (to me at least) read like advertisements for 300 Below, but appear to be salvageable. Everything in Cryogenic processor needs to be verified, and it is generally a mess, while CryoTech needs a NPOV check. These pages (and Cryocooler, which could use an expansion) could probably be cleaned up to respectable articles, but I am not very experienced in this, being more of an administrative person. I am sure that you could do a much better job then me alone, and if you have the time could you help me out with these? If you are busy however, just let me know, I can do it myself. Happy editing!

The Georgia Supreme Court is not the common name for the Supreme Court of Georgia (U.S. State). The U.S. State of Georgia has double the population of the country of Georgia, and this is the English Wikipedia, making the Supreme Court of Georgia more commonly known for the court in the U.S. state of Georgia. I propose moving Supreme Court of Georgia to a disambiguation page with links directing people to either the Supreme Court of Georgia (U.S. State) or the Supreme Court of Georgia (Country). Please let me kow what you think.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate German (disambiguation) itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 20:00, 3 June 2007 (UTC) [edit] Hittite (disambiguation)To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Hittite (disambiguation), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD.

None of these (film, orchestra, plaster) is referred to as simply "Veneziano". "Veneziano" is not the natural article title for any of these, so there is no conflict over the article titles, so no need for a disambiguation page. It shoud be a redirect to Veneziano (surname).

[edit] Re:Wikipedia:Templates with redlinksYes, I would like to reboot the above Project but I don't know how to because I am a Novice Editor. I am also a user at WikiChristian Wikia:Christianity and Greenlivingpedia an Australian enviromental wiki that only went public in October this year. I am from Adelaide, South Australia.

Kathleen.wright5 04:40, 17 November 2007 (UTC) I have also finished sorting out the September 2005 dump as above. Kathleen.wright5 13:13, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] I hate to ask thisI would appreciate your input at WP:AN#Choosing to vanish, if you feel you have anything of worth to add. Thanks for your time, Hiding T 23:25, 10 December 2007 (UTC) [edit] DEFAULTSORTHi, I see you have been doing good work adding the defaultsort magic word to lots of articles. However, please may I draw your attention to some issues regarding the indexing of peers? The peerage categories should be indexed by the title:
It's also important to note that different categories need to be indexed differently. e.g. E. F. L. Wood, 1st Earl of Halifax had a notable career in the House of Commons before his ennoblement, and the categories relating to that period of his life should be indexed as Wood, E. F. L. (see this edit for an example) Hope this helps. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:20, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] New templates with redlinks dumpUser:RussBot/Templates with red links and its subpages have been updated from the 2008-01-03 database dump. --Russ (talk) 15:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Airline code templatesActually another user came up with the idea to use templates. The data is transcluded into two articles. One for the codes by first letter of the airline name and the other for a list of all codes. This was split up to reduce the load time for editing. Having the data in one article, as it was to start was very slow to edit and load. This was a solution to allow quicker editing and loading for most user who only want to look at the list by letter.

[edit] Templates with red linksThose pages are ready for your review. --Russ (talk) 18:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC) [edit] Category:Wikipedians who support HezbollahHi. I don't know if you're going to be interested in this but you voice an interest in the First Amendment on your user page so I thought maybe. I've discovered a debate about whether wikipedians should be able to voice their political support for Hezbollah (I happen to be taking a terrorism and civil liberties class right now). The category was deleted 5 times for different reasons, once because of Wikipedia:CSD#C3, once because there were no users of the user box, and three times because it was a recreation of delete material. There was a debate that took place here when a user started creating the userboxes on his own userpage and admininstrators started deleting them. It seems that the result of the debate was that it is impermissible to voice support for Hezbollah on one's user page, although the results of the discussion were generally vague and inconclusive. It seems that certain administrators repeatedly deleted these user boxes until the debate was ended inconclusively. A user box was even created protesting the deletions. I was thinking of recreating the page because I don't think it explicitly violates wikipedia policy and deleting it without comprehensive debate seems to be a real violation of ideals of free speech, but then I thought I'd better see if an outside wikipedia admin could clarify the crucial points. The following user boxes were proposed:
I'd like to appeal these decisions but I have no idea of how and I could use some help with that. At the very least, I feel the topic should have a more comprehensive debate, as I really think it's debatable whether these user boxes give widespread offense. Although Hezbollah (or a part of it) has been designated as a terrorist organization by six countries, there are many notable exceptions, and many countries openly support Hezbollah. In any respect, it's clearly debatable and the last debate was inconclusive. I'm just unsure about how to revive the debate. Thanks.--Cdogsimmons (talk) 17:47, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] TEP userboxFYI, I've created a userbox Template:User Tau Epsilon Phi, which you may want to include on your userpage. [edit] AWB for Joker...
nevermind... I jsut re-read the edits, and you were doing just that. ThuranX (talk) 16:54, 14 April 2008 (UTC) [edit] "U.S. is an initialism, not an acronym"True, but outside of the US, the authoritative consensus on the use of initials is to drop the punctuation - I picked up on this with a recent edit you made to 2006 in music where you changed US to U.S. The optional use of these variations seems to me to be supported by WP:MOS - Acronyms and abbreviations and MOS:ABBR. As an ongoing labour, it seems a gigantic task to Americanise edits made by non-US contributors... Alchemagenta (talk) 03:03, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
