[edit] Re: Caulfield Grammar School
While the citation issue I would say has been largely addressed, the writing still needs work. For example, "In 1961 Caulfield became affiliated with Malvern Memorial Grammar School, which became the school's Malvern House in 1971, a primary school located in the Valentine's Mansion, and its students began to wear the Caulfield Grammar School uniform." It's a bit of a mouthful. LuciferMorgan (talk) 22:46, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] His Holiness Romapada Swami
I'm sorry, I should have used the preview function. I just pasted the totally unacceptable biography from his website onto the Wiki page and saved it, but I was just in the process of editing it to go into Wikipedia. That was just a temporary thing. But anyways, he is notable, if Urmila Devi Dasi is notable, and I am putting him back in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David G Brault (talk • contribs) 00:43, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rekha Luther
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Rekha Luther, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Rekha Luther. B.

[edit] Bond Uni

[edit] Bond Uni page
Harro5,
I have tried a number of times to remove Julian Moti from notable faculty of Bond Uni, and see that you keep reinstating it. I am trying to remove it because it is INCORRECT. Julian Moti was never employed by Bond University, and was not a teaching Faculty member. He had the honorary title of Adjunct professor, from which he resigned from on Friday 22 September 2007. Please update the site accordingly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.244.3.45 (talk) 01:20, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fred Walker (entrepreneur)
Hello there. I saw that you nominated the above article for DYK. Your references had been verified except that an editor found the article too short. See: Template talk:Did you know#Articles created/expanded on April 9. Will you be able to expand it to reach 1,500 characters or more? It's almost there... so if you can, please do. Interesting article. Thanks. - DaughterofSun (talk) 17:30, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Magic Johnson has been chosen to be our very first Collaboration of the Month article. Although this is article is already a Good Article, it still can be improved. The goal is to improve this article by the end of May so that it can be nominated for Featured Article status. In particular, free-use images should be found for the article, all Manual of Style guidelines should be followed, and a neutral point of view should be maintained throughout the article. If there is anything you can do to improve the article, then please help out. |

[edit] Tania Zaetta
Hi Harro5. I have removed your recent addition to the Tania Zaetta article. I believe the content breaches the letter and the spirit of Wikipedia policy, specifically Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. The whole "story" at this stage is unsourced speculation denied by all parties and inclusion breaches the "do no harm" principle in the BLP policy. Happy to discuss this further should you wish but I will continue to remove any and all content on this issue. Regards, Mattinbgn\talk 04:15, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- I take your point about the media attention as being factual (i.e. there is media attention on this issue and an inquiry is being held) however my point is that we should not add to the indignity that the subject of this article must be feeling at present. Her privacy has been horribly breached by the government and we should not be adding to the offence. Over and above any legal concerns, I believe strongly we have a moral duty to "do no harm" and repeating innuendo and rumour, even in the form of discussing the fact of allegations, reports etc, I believe adds to the initial offence. I know there was no malicious intent in your addition, I just didn't see it as appropriate in the circumstances. Finally, on your point about allegations being important, this is a bit like the old chestnut of asking someone "When did you stop beating your wife?" and when a denial is issued then reporting "Man denies beating wife". The allegation is what causes the harm and reporting the denial only adds to it. Sorry for the long-winded explanation but BLP is a bit of a hobby-horse for me. If anything will kill the project, our treatment of living people will. Cheers and thanks for your understanding, Mattinbgn\talk 07:46, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Last month's Collaboration of the Month, Magic Johnson was a great success. A total of 560 edits were made to the article during the month of May, and the article was eventually nominated as a Featured Article Candidate. Although the article was not promoted, it was significantly improved through the work of many editors. This month's Collaboration of the Month is Steve Nash. Although this is article is already a Good Article, it still can be improved. In particular, all prose should conform to Featured Article standards, all statements should be verified, and the text should be in a neutral point of view. If there is anything you can do to improve the article, then please help out.
 The Collaborator of the Month is given to the editor with the most number of substantial, beneficial edits to the article chosen as the Collaboration of the Month. This month's Collaborator of the Month award goes to Chensiyuan (talk · contribs). Although he had previously helped Magic Johnson to became a Good article, he made literally hundreds of edits during the month of May. For his contributions, he is rewarded with the NBA Collaborator of the Month Award. However, all beneficial edits made by any editor was a help. Other members of the project that contributed to the article include:
