User talk:Jemecache
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello, and welcome to my User talk page.
I'm fairly new at Wikipedia, so please forgive me for any unintended blunders. Your patience is appreciated.
In my [sandbox] is the stub for an article on Laurence Caruana. If you have any concerns or advice, please voice them here as fully and clearly as possible. If you post a template or make a deletion, please take the time to explain why.
Regarding notability, I have consulted the [WikiProject Biography] and used published secondary sources (mentioned at the beginning of the article) to try to establish the subject's notability. All being well, I hope the article will fall within the scope of the project called WikiProject Biography (see template below).
With my thanks,

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

[edit] Laurence Caruana

- Hello Jemecache,
- I saw the article on your sandbox, and I have to say: I am impressed! I saw the list of your contributions and it appears that this is the first article you start, yet this article certainly gives the impression that you have been doing this for quite some time. To see what i mean, just take a look at a couple of articles on Special:Newpages, and you will see what most new articles look like and how good your article looks (in comparison) .I would you encourage to post it , but please read the answers to your questions first.
- First, If someone tags the article questioning their notability {e.g. {{notability}} }, the recommended action is to: 1.Establish notability by referring to several important sources (which you have already done) 2.discuss the issue on the article's talk page, and if possible with the person who tagged it to explain why they did so, and respond.
- You have also to remember these things if you become engaged in such discussion:(1).Notability guidelines do not directly limit article content, and (2). Notability requires objective evidence. For more information on this subject, please see Wikipedia:Notability
- The template will remain until notability is established. It is then removed by the person who put there in the first place. If you think that the discussion between you and the person tagging the article would not lead to any useful conclusion, you can ask for a third opinion. Also, you can (but it is recommended against) to remove the template yourself. Bear in mind , however, that breaking the Wikipedia:Three-revert_rule can result in blocking the account.
- And Finally, Yes, someone might, and most likely, will tag it without discussing it first, but i would not worry that much if i were you, a notability tag is not used that often, instead if the article is not important, it will be tagged for deletion. So to avoid this kind of situation, you will have to follow the same procedure as above, plus one or two extra steps depending on the situation (speedy deletion: post {{hangon}}, and AfD , discuss it on the article's entry page)see Wikipedia:Guide_to_deletion and Wikipedia:Help,_my_article_got_nominated_for_deletion!
- I know this is a long response, but i hope i have answered your question! Do not worry, your article will not be tagged (it is well referenced, among other things), but if it does, you know what to do! :)
- Good luck ,if you have any question, or need help (especially with that article) , you know where to find me. Λua∫Wise (talk) 19:58, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

- Hi again.
- And thanks a million for the thumbs up.
- I'm also very thankful that you took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and clearly. As a new user, I keep on learning new policies, and probably have more to learn still. That's why your role is so vital. I needed to be clear, at least on those points, before the article is posted. I imagine your contribution takes a lot of time and effort, so I would like to say here how appreciative I am - to have a wise counselor (young though she may be) or guardian angel. Your supportive acts are deeply appreciated.

- Hello Jemecache,
- You do not have to thank me, i just told you the truth. Wikipedia needs the kind of enthusiasm and respect for Wikipedia guidelines that you have. To be honest with you, you are one of the few who actually post the article first on the sandbox, and ask for feedback. Thus, i expect you to become a successful wikipedian.
- Please do not hesitate to post any question you have on my talk page, I will be more than happy to help you.
- P.S. I am actually a male (sorry for disappointing you!).
- Best of luck my fellow wikipedian !! ;)

- Hi again Auawise...
- Thanks for taking the time to look in on my article once again. As I said, you must be my guardian angel (and sorry about the gender mix-up, but angels don't really have a gender anyway!). I'll follow your advice and see about posting a picture of the artist (and not his work, for risk of copyright infringement. I'm learning...). Your interest and sage advice are appreciated.
