[edit] The Last Alliance Website (and a welcome)
Okay, it seems everyone is being too harsh with you (and seem to be forgetting a certain guideline…), so first of all Welcome! Since you appear to be a Lord of the Rings hobbyist (obviously), I added this template to your userpage:
| ' | This user is a Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game hobbyist. |
Having information on your userpage help Wikipedians to get to know you and your interests. You can see my userpage, for example, and if you have any questions, please leave a message! :)
About your article on The Last Alliance, you did good work on rectifying the problems with the article, especially with the addition of citation, and I did some more to clean it up. However, I still feel it is likely to be deleted by vote, but I will try and merge relevant material into Games Workshop Online Community. Also, I have copied the article to your userpage; see User:ChrisWilliams1000/The Last Alliance (Website). I am not sure about the technicalities regarding this, but I understand that it is permissible to keep an article draft on a subpage of the userpage (I saw User:Uthanc do this before).
I hope this helps! --Grimhelm 19:59, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- Well, from what I can see, you became inactive on the One Ring shortly before I joined, so this is my first introduction (although I have to say I like the assault boats in your gallery).
- I also regret to inform you that the TLA article has been deleted, which is sad because a lot of time must has been put into it… However, if you continue editing Wikipedia, here are some things you may find helpful: "UTC" stands for "Coordinated Universal Time", which is effectively the same as GMT (Greenwich Meantime). When signing your name, it can be done quickly with four tildes: ~~~~
- This automatically adds the date to your signature. Another important thing to know is that double-brackets are used only when linking to an article on the site; eg. [[Article|article name]] appears as "article name". When you are linking using the http address, just the single bracket is requred; eg. [http://www.google.com/ Google] equals "Google".
- All the best. --Grimhelm 00:12, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- I just merged some of the material into Games Workshop Online Community#The Last Alliance, so you might want to read it to make sure it's correct. Was White Dwarf 300 the UK or the US edition? --Grimhelm 15:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Deletion Review
The Last Alliance is currently going through deletion review at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2006 October 25, if you would care to comment. --Grimhelm 00:49, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
