[edit] New issues for discussion

start: Still trying to figure out Wikipedia. Im not sure if this is where I am supposed to reply to your comments. My username is the name of my indipendant record label and I hope to fill some information on the history of the bands in it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Revert Entertainment (talk • contribs) 00:55, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: DYK

No, unfortunately it doesn't appear to be placed correctly. It should have been added under the "Suggestions" section, on the empty template. See [2] for an example. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 17:44, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Doesn't seem to either, but I've repositioned it. [3] I appreciate and thank you for the effort though, hope to see you working in DYK more often in future. :) - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 18:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC) (Apologies for the repeated changes on your talkpage, there were connection problems)

[edit] Did you know

Updated DYK query On 13 October 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Shrapnel Valley Commonwealth War Graves Commission Cemetery, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

[edit] Shrapnel Valley Cemetery

Thanks for the excellent work you have done enlarging and improving the Shrapnel Valley Cemetery article, and for nominating it for DYK. Best wishes. Jll 11:07, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar

The Resilient Barnstar
I, Durova, award Chergles the Resilient Barnstar for starting an article that got highlighted at Template:Did you know after making a legitimate return from an indefinite block. Welcome back, and may this be the start of a much better journey. :) DurovaCharge! 05:46, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ANI subpages

As long as there are no timestamps in the "stub sections", they will not be archived. —Random832 20:45, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comment

If you found it personally offensive, then I'm sorry. I found your nomination to be in very poor taste.

If you didn't actually find it personally offensive, then you are crying foul simply to make a point and thus you really are doing what it appeared you were doing.

Either way, it all needs to cool down and that means everyone from both viewpoints needs to chill and stop with the rhetoric. Your long-winded public nomination can only serve to provoke responses against the nomination which does little to calm things down. Doing so after Durova asked that people let this cool down is fanning the flames or simply bad judgment.. you're welcome to choose whichever you prefer.

You're welcome to respond or not as you choose, I won't reply again.

Best Regards, Peace. Lsi john (talk) 22:58, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Thanks for helping out in DYK. We haven't had people putting suggestions on the Next Update lately, and that really help us to proofread and prepare. One note: your suggestion of FDR's Top Cottage was written/expanded on the 8th, but there was a nice article on a French railway from the 6th waiting in the suggestions list. We try to select from the oldest nominations first, so that they have a chance to be on the main page before the 5 day time-limit ends. We still have 2 more days (8 rotations) to feature all the articles from the 7th and the 8th. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:28, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

He he! Actually there was one suitable nom left on Dec 6, and since it had a nice image it really ought to go up next. We get regular criticism about the photo, because it's usually a person's head or a house/building. So, whenever he have the option to choose something different, it's probably a good idea. I can't recall the last time a rail engine image was used. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Auto image policy development

Hi, Chergles. I'm trying to move the ball forward on this topic and hold namecalling and invective to a minimum here on WPA. If you have a moment and can add your thoughts, the odds of a productive outcome would likely improve. Thanks. —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 23:10, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
