[edit] The Great Trench War

Hi Cpuwhiz11, Take a deep breath and calm down. I'll answer your question in a few minutes.--Duk 23:59, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Permission for Wikipedia to use copyrighted work must be per the GFDL. See WP:C. When I get anonymous, second hand, vague assertions of permission which don't specify a GFDL release I ignore it.

You mentioned that you and your boss made this submission. If that is the case then your boss released the material per the GFDL by virtue of hitting the submit button (read the information directly below the submit button). All he has to do is identify himself on the article talk page as the Wikipedia editor and copyright holder. An email address for confirmation should be included. --Duk 00:10, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Difficult Video Games

Your list of the most difficult video games ever was deleted because it's a totally subjective thing. Sorry. DS 15:52, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deus Ex

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. While the Wikipedia community appreciates your obvious efforts to increase the amount of information on the site, we'd like to point out our policy against original research and for citing sources for the information you provide. This increases the reputation of Wikipedia as a whole and aids in checking the factuality of that article. Werdna648T/C\@ 05:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

That's perfectly OK. We've all been new before, and i'd like to take this opportunity to, as well, welcome you to Wikipedia. Werdna648T/C\@ 07:33, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Azure Sheep

Sorry, but I deleted your article on Azure Sheep, because it has already been decided here that the mod is not notable enough for an encyclopedia article. Angr (talk • contribs) 14:02, 12 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Blocking

As you have had the wisdom and displayed the interest to create a user account, the IP block would not affect you if you logged in. Dlohcierekim

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear Cpuwhiz11,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that not enough mainspace edits. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

[edit] School Stub Creation

Hi - I noticed you've been creating a lot of stubs tagged as {{US-school-stub}}. The articles look good, but I just wanted to let you know that every US state has its own school stub template on the format of statename-school-stub. The only exception is Georgia, which is GeorgiaUS-school-stub to differentiate it from the country. Aelfthrytha 03:09, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MILO Images

I have uploaded the following photos of MILO.

I've already set #4 as the default photo for the MILO page, because I believe it best represents the game as both First Person and Puzzle game (and because it looks cool). I suppose the other ones can be deleted after a while if they are not used. -- Eptin 00:30, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SdKfz 252

The basic outline of the article is good. You have a good infobox, correct template, stub, etc... Now comes the hard part of finding pictures, expanding the introduction and history, adding references and citing facts. Quick note of caution. Make sure you do not use an acronym to begin with. Spell it out all the way followed by the acronym in parenthesis and the use the acronym the rest of the way. Always assume that the person reading the article has absolutely no knowledge of the subject. Hope this helps, if you need anything else let me know. --Looper5920 00:16, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Core

Wow. You did a lot of work on Core, and it's looking much better. However, I don't think it's quite ready to have the cleanup tag removed -- it still needs tweaking to bring it into conformance with the Manual of Style for disambiguation pages (MOS:DP). Some things I note in particular:

  • doesn't have a wiktionarypar tag
  • piped links, obscuring the true name of the linked articles
  • having more than one link in a line
  • not beginning the line with the relevant link, where it's possible to do so
  • ending lines with periods
  • not ordering links within sections by prominence/significance/relevance
  • links in article headings

For example, the first reference, when tweaked to fit MOS:DP, might read something like:

  • Lithic core, in archaeology, a stone artifact left over from toolmaking

Note that it begins with the unpiped link, has no additional links in the line, and no period at the end.

Some of the items that are currently included on the page might need to be removed, as well. For example, there is no information about fruit cores in the article fruit, so I would likely remove that particular listing from the disambiguation page. There's a lot more judgement leeway on matters like that, though.

Thanks for working on disambiguation cleanup, and please let me know if you have any further questions about the items I listed above. And of course, MOS:DP is a good reference tool, too. Sanguinity 10:39, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalproof

Please don't recreate the redirect from Vandalproof to User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof. It's speedy deletable per WP:CSD#R2. Creating a shortcut would be appropriate for it, but redirecting a bare word is not. --Interiot 15:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
