Lcarscad, The external link which you have removed from the Scrip site does contain resources and information on running a scrip program that can contribute to the article. Also, all people running a scrip fundraising program MUST have a way to track the data. If you still believe this falls against the guidlines, then the other fundraising related links (3 software links and 2 scrip centers) should also be removed as they serve the same purpose. I was simply following what was already present - I certainly meant no ill intent. Respectfully, Fiat7 (talk) 12:42, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Dear Lcarscad, Thank you for reminding me to use the sandbox for further experimenting.Please write back to me on my talk page.(My Contribution was not vandilism,even though it was not approprite.) Goblyglook (talk) 03:34, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Dear Lcarscad,
Thank you for your welcome message. I'm glad my test worked! Now I know how to edit Wikipedia. If I want to test something again, though, I'll use the "sandbox." OK, I'm off to look at that "welcome page" you told me about. Please write back to me on my "talk" page. Thanks!
Sincerely,

[edit] Testing....
I wondered how long my own birthday would last on here! I was edited by a fellow librarian! within 2 minutes... Doh! :-) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fiona Jane Murray (talk • contribs) 14:49, 29 March 2007 (UTC).

Thanks for cleaning up the vandalism from my userpage yesterday. Take care! --Ann Stouter 18:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Business as Mission
Just for future reference, WP:COI isn't really a valid reason for a speedy deletion. The fact that the author apparently considers his diatribe copyrighted is though.--Isotope23 15:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info - I originally leaned toward copyright, but then changes. I appreciate it. Lcarscad 15:35, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Micky80 Persistent sockpuppet fabricating hoax article
See User_talk:NawlinWiki#Lenny09_sockpuppet_for_Gerry2009.3F This "Sid the Cat" article has been deleted once already as nonsense. In it's first incarnation, it was copied and edited from the legitimate "Shaun the Sheep" article. To bad I can't see that history anymore. --Lexein 13:41, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you
Thanks for your help and guidance. Yours sincerely, Goldie777 16:13, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the revert on my talkpage... looks like he's onto our evil plan, mwa ha ha! :)--Isotope23 14:58, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I've removed the speedy tag from this, as it obviously asserts notability (has written four books, writes for a notable magazine etc.) If you still think it should be deleted you can take it to AfD, but I suggest you do a bit of Googling first - the subject seems quite notable to me.

- It doesn't have to establish notability to avoid an A7 speedy - it just has to make some claim to notability. A7 is supposed to be for vanity articles which offer no hint of importance whatsoever ("John Doe is a student at Smalltown High School. He likes baseball and playstation") - not articles where it's not immediately obvious whether the subject passes WP:BIO. The latter type shouldn't be speedied as they can often be improved with a bit of searching - in this case a cursory Google brings up quite a few sources, including reviews of his novels in mainstream newspapers, which make him notable enough for me at least.

[edit] Thanks
I'm still figuring it out. Thanks for the help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acex23 (talk • contribs) 18:28, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Jennifer Mankoff meets the standards of notability as a professor
I am still in the process of editing this page (along with other contributors), but you should be aware that as a professor, Jennifer Mankoff clearly meets the standards of notability.
Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gillianrh (talk • contribs) 04:16, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
UPDATE:
I made a note on the article's talk page about her notability. Sorry about not signing. I figured since the sinebot does it automatically, it was all under control. I'll be sure to sign in the future. Gillianrh (talk) 04:33, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sounds Good To Me
Dear Lcarscad, That sounds very fair and reasonable to me - I like the 'consensus' feeling to Wikipedia. (Although I have often gone to W for information, I never knew how it worked until I got the idea of putting in my own website as a link.) I see your perspective, and still feel my website brings something unique - something that happens differently from the flow of Wikipedia, a comprehensive simplicity that also involves easier access to the flow of direct experience. I will check back about once per week . . . I am hoping it will show up on my talk page, if there evolves a consensus for my link to be added? Again, if possible, I would like to link from all three topics - mysticism, spirituality, and comparative religion. (This is regarding the Heart of the Mystic link I wanted to place.) Your thoroughness and conscientiousness is highly appreciated. VirginiaLouVirginiaLou (talk) 02:19, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Another Thought ...
Hello again Lcarscad, I just thought of something else - if it does turn out that my link is deemed suitable for those three Wikipedia articles, is it appropriate for me to ask you to just go ahead and append it? I still find the navigating a bit cumbersome - password, how to post messages, and so forth . . . if so, then I will just go on and leave it to you...VirginiaVirginiaLou (talk) 03:24, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Leave it to you, then...
Okay, much appreciated...I will go on to other things, won't bother to check back...enjoyed this 'inside look' at the workings of Wikipedia. Best regards, VirginiaVirginiaLou (talk) 06:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Please
when I changed the name of the heading to "Facts" it was only because the things there WERE facts and not trivia. Please leave me alone, because I was just fixing a typo. BACK OFF. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Snazzgurl12 (talk • contribs) 22:23, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] GARRH!
stop it please. That section is NOT trivia, it is just assorted facts. Trivia is questions. I am going to label it "fun facts" this time, so please do not change it again, because having it called trivia just looks retarted. Snazzgurl12 (talk) 22:46, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sorry...
I'm sorry that I come across as rude, but trivia is questions, not facts. Please just keep it that way, because trivia is a discouraged wikipedia section. If another editor changes it, then I'll just deal with them, but please please just keep it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Snazzgurl12 (talk • contribs) 22:58, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Saccani Article under Development
Rico Saccani (born April 16, 1952) is an American conductor.
He was born in Tucson, Arizona, served as Music Director/Artistic Adviser of the Budapest Philharmonic Orchestra between 1996-2005[1] and was principle guest conductor of the Hungarian State Opera from 1985-2005. His music career began with piano studies at age six, and following 300 Community Concert piano recitals (1974-1978) he participated in both the 1978 Leeds and Tchaikowsky International Piano Competitions. His early keyboard studies were with Winnifred Knight and later with Ozan and Patricia Marsh. He attended the National Music Camp in Interlochen, Michigan from 1965-1968 and went on to the Chautauqua Summer Music Institute from 1969-1972. He attended the 1973 Summer Academy at Fontainebleau where he worked with Nadia Boulanger. He graduated from the University of Arizona in 1974 with a B.S. in Business and returned in 1980 for a B.M. in Music. From 1980-1982 he attended the University of Michigan School of Music where he obtained his M.M. in Conducting under Gustav Meier and his D.M.A. under Louis Nagel. He attended the 1982 summer conducting seminar for young conductors at Tanglewood where he worked with Seiji Ozawa, Leonard Bernstein and Maurice Abravanel. During a seven year apprentice internship with Italian conductor Giuseppe Patane, he won top prize in the 1984 Herbert von Karajan International Conducting Competition in Berlin. He was immediately engaged to perform with the Berlin and Stuttgart Radio Orchestras, the Royal Danish Philharmonic and the Spoleto Festival. His opera debut came in 1985 in Verdi’s Un Giorno di Regno at the Teatro Filarmonico di Verona, La Traviata at the Paris Opera and the Vienna State Opera, Il Turco in Italia at the Rossini Festival in Pesaro plus La Boheme at the Philadelphia Opera with Luciano Pavarotti for the PBS American television network.
He appeared regularly as guest conductor with the many important symphony orchestras including the Bavarian Radio Orchestra (Munich), the Czech Philharmonic, the Irish National Symphony, the Tokyo Philharmonic and Yomiuri Symphonies, the Oslo Philharmonic, the Madrid and Bilbao Orchestras, the Gurzenisch Orchestra (Cologne), the Geneva Chamber Orchestra, the Hungarian National State Philharmonic, the Mannheim National Theater Orchestra, the Marseilles Opera Orchestra and the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra.
Maestro Saccani also appeared at the Hamburg State Opera, the Lyon Opera, the Monte-Carlo Opera, the Arena de Nimes Festival, the Paris Opera Comique, Rome, Dresden and Cologne Operas. In 1989 he made his Metropolitan Opera debut in Il Trovatore and was re-engaged for the first international radio broadcast of Traviata and Aida. He also conducted at the Teatro San Carlo (Naples), the Arena di Verona (Rigoletto), the Houston Grand Opera, the Puccini Festival Torre del Lago (Turandot), the Teatro Bellini di Catania (La Favorita and I Puritani) as well as the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, the Avenches Swiss Festival and the Santander Summer Music Festival in Spain. Maestro Saccani initiated a “Verdi Marathon” in the Hungarian State Opera house in January 2000 celebrating the Millennium where he conducted seven Verdi operas in nine evenings[2]. He returned to New York’s Carnegie Hall and Washington’s Kennedy Center that same year with the Iceland Symphony as their Music Director during their North American tour.
In 2005 he received Hungary’s Legion of Honor award recognizing his “distinguished contributions to Hungary’s cultural life for over 20 years”.
