[edit] Regarding D. T. Suzuki
Hi Phoebe13, I added more info on my comments regarding Kapleau's view about Suzuki on Suzuki's discussion page. Sorry I took so long to read your questions about that. The edition of the pillars I used was the 35th Anniversary Edition. Cheers --Zen Mind (talk) 15:51, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
-- I am not sure what would the best way be to add Kapleau's alternate comment without creating confusion with the comment already there. Do you have any suggestions? --Zen Mind (talk) 20:59, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding Wendell Berry
Hello. I have reverted your recent edits to the Wendell Berry article because the information you provided was unreferenced. I assume you have a source for the information, so please add the source to the article. If you need any help, please do not hesitate to ask me. Thanks. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 01:32, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response. My suggestion is to put the reference in, as best you know how, and then I will go in and correct any errors. As to your question, everything should be referenced. I know that this is often not easy, but we must strive to make it so. Please ask if you have any questions. I am glad to help. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 22:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- ISBNs are always helpful, and, where possible, should be listed for all titles. On Wikipedia, though, all you have to do is add the number and it will be "live" as soon as you save it. If you click on one of the ISBNs already present, you will see it connects to a very helpful link to WorldCat. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 22:56, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- I cleaned up the reference (all it needed was for the title to be italicized), and I linked the academy. In order to link to another article, all you have to do is put brackets [[ and ]] on either side of the word or phrase you want to link. If there is anything else I can do to help, just let me know. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 03:10, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Black advance
A tag has been placed on Black advance requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ziggy Sawdust 19:47, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
