[edit] Russia and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Russia and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. Please check out if Wikinews is the place where you wanted to contribute! Tikiwont 16:03, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nuclear power
Hi. I've made a minor change to your recent edit, but the sense is the same: WP:CITE suggests using the original source, rather than an "improper" intermediate source, when you can. Some of the original wording looked a bit like a "cut and paste" and in consequence the style was a bit journalistic, rather than encyclopedic. I hope that's all OK! --Old Moonraker 22:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Civilian casualties of the War in Afghanistan (2001–present)
I know it isn't obvious in the main title of the article but this article is about Coalition civilian victims in Afghanistan, those killed by Foreign Troops. The original title stated "United States" in the title but other foreign troops, Canadians etc, began their own contributions to killing civilian Afghans.
If you want to begin a tally of Afghan Civilians killed in all actions in the war, in suicide bombings etc, it would be a welcome task to undertake, but it would have to be under a different article I think, or all previous Afghan agains Afghan clashes that resulted in Afghan civilian deaths would have to be added to this article.
I've also edited a bit your contribution to the March 4th incident, but I think the content is the same. It just looked like there had been a separate incident on March 14 (the date of the NY Times Article" the way you wrote it. I hope its ok with you

[edit] Zimbabwe
I removed your addition to Zimbabwe as I believe it belongs in the current events page, or at current events/Africa. --Ezeu 21:55, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] John McCain
Hi, I reverted your edits to John McCain because it resulted in the information being doubled. Enigma msg! 20:41, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Your edit to Turkey
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Turkey. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history.

Thank you. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 21:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Your edit to tropical cyclone
I removed your mentioning of a cyclone affecting Germany. That was not a tropical cyclone, and including it in the tropical cyclone page is false. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:12, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hi Pauly!
Thanks for your contributions. Please use acute accents when needed when writing Spaniard names, as in Hugo Chávez. Regards. --Damifb (talk) 20:44, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Air Transat Incident
These passenger related incidents occur several times a year to all airlines. Are you certain it is relevant and deserves mention in an airline's history? Will this incident be relevant in 10 years? They probably had dozens of such incidents over their 20 years existence. Hudicourt (talk) 22:20, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] China population
Alot of the Chinese Parents have more than 1 child, the laws and regulations don't really matter much to them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dwilso (talk • contribs) 08:53, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] transwiki Scarlett Keeling case
There has been a proposal to move Scarlett Keeling case to wikinews, a wikimedia site devoted to news. For legal reasons your permission is required for the move since the move would involve a change of copyright license (from wikipedia's GNU Free Documentation License to wikinews' Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License). This will end the deletion discussion and allow work to continue on the article there. Please respond at Talk:Scarlett Keeling case. Jon513 (talk) 14:30, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Please do not copy material directly from news websites.
Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Barack Obama presidential campaign, 2008. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
The material you added to Barack Obama presidential campaign, 2008 in this edit contained several sentences copied directly from this CNN story. If any of your other contributions contain directly copied sentences, please reword them to avoid violating the news source's copyright. Thank you. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 05:48, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
While your efforts are appreciated, I must echo Josiah above in stressing that it is very important that you not copy and paste material directly from other websites. Everyking (talk) 08:38, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
