[edit] USAA
I've left a pretty unequivocal message with today's protagonist. If they make another bad edit, I will block their account. That's more desirable than locking many people out of the article altogether. Let's see if we can do this in a targetted way where possible. -Splashtalk 19:36, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Germanium
- Re: [1] - LANL was used as a general, non-footnoted reference, just leave it there. The <references/> by the way is a stand-alone tag independent of the item above, you can edit them separately. (WP:FN) Femto 12:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
- For my iteration, how does a non-footnoted reference differ from an external link? LeyteWolfer 01:37, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Samaraweera
- This guy represented his country at the highest possible level. Test cricket is only open to ten countries who meet a decent standard of cricket, it is not like some country in Africa getting a wildcard for the Olympics. Clearly he meets WP:BIO.Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 01:30, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
- Hope you're reading this here, but can his importance be made clear in the article?LeyteWolfer 01:42, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
- Well, it did say that he played Test cricket - which is implied to be international. I have expanded it, but if you see List of Test cricketers, the vast majority are in a similarly poor state. Unfortunately Sri Lanka is the only Test country from whom we do not have an active cricket wikipedian, so apart from the big names currently playing, the articles could be terrible for a while yet unless someone else decides to take a particular interest in obscure cricketers above the more successful ones. Thanks, Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 02:14, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
- Understood. I'm not a cricket fan, but simply a roaming editor, so I'm no expert. I just feel that it serves very little purpose for the average person (such as myself) who visits the page. There is very little information as to who he is (even his stats are missing a great deal of information) or what the various terms mean (such as test, which had no meaning before you shared them with me). Other than those concerns, I don't feel like it /must/ be deleted. I do think you and I agree it /must/ be expanded, however. Thank you for the replies. LeyteWolfer 05:28, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] extra edit count information
I agree to the edit counter opt-in terms
[edit] GA Rating
- Hey, I noticed that you rated FASA as GA class. I've changed it to Start class- to be GA class, an article has to pass WP:GAC. Thank you for taking the time to rate an article, however! --PresN 20:09, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the hint. --LeyteWolfer 01:40, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Revert
- Cheers for reverting my talk page. Poor old anon IP vandals with attitude, eh? Budgiekiller 18:53, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Say it, brother. --LeyteWolfer 18:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
