A tag has been placed on Zweigle's, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. N i g h t F a l c o n 9 0 9 0 9' T a l k 23:55, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Powers T 13:09, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Funnybs2004. You still aren't using edit summaries. Can I ask why? They are very helpful to your fellow editors. Powers T 21:25, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Creamale1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Creamale1.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Preview button

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again.

I also must mention again that edit summaries are very helpful to your fellow editors. Going to an article history and seeing a long list of edits by Funnybs2004, all in quick succession with no edit summaries, is very very frustrating. You're annoying your fellow editors by not using these tools provided for you. Please, work with us.

Thank you.

[edit] Notability of CGI Communications

A tag has been placed on CGI Communications requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Carados (talk) 05:35, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rochester

You're cluttering up the Rochester article by adding too many images. Look at other city articles, and see how they are less cluttered. Also, logos shouldn't be overused. They've been added to the article more of decorative purposes,, rather than informative. I would suggest only using very a couple of the most prominent companies in Rochester. Also, make sure you use the Preview button before submitting. I noticed you've been adding MANY revisions, try to condense your revisions. It clutters up the history log. Also, remember to add an edit summary to your edits. --Dan LeveilleTALK 03:52, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I concur. The list of companies is way too long. ccwaters (talk) 20:51, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Nice work on the cleanup. Cheers, Kingturtle (talk) 04:14, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

I strongly disagree. First, redlinks can be useful; they shouldn't be removed just for the sake of removing redlinks. Second, twenty edits in quick succession is annoying, and Funnybs2004 has been asked multiple times to not do that. Third, there's plenty more that needs cleaning up than just the redlinks. Powers T 04:26, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ccwaters (talk) 23:58, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Look, seriously, Funnybs2004, what's the big deal about having a cleanup tag on the article? It doesn't hurt anything; if you're so desperate to get rid of it, then fix the problems with the article -- preferably without insulting me. Powers T 00:02, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
