[edit] Institute For Independent Business
Hi. At the time of deletion, the article was only a link with not much else. To create a page, please check first if the topic is notable (See: Wikipedia:Notability, probably also Wikipedia:Notability (companies and corporations)). E.g. The club, society, or organization has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the club, society, or organization itself Are there e.g. New York times articles about the institute? If the topic is not notable for an encyclopedia article, it will probably be deleted again. Also, if you are closely involved with the organization, please be aware that it is considered bad form to write about your own company/products, etc. If you still find that the topic is notable, please include links and references about its notability in the article. I hope this helps -- Chris 73 | Talk 14:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- I am afraid there is not really grace period, as our new page patrol judges the article by its current status. But, I would suggest you work out the article on a e.g. text file on your computer, maybe using the Wikipedia preview function, and post the article when it is done. Hope this helps -- Chris 73 | Talk 14:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- I added a notability tag to the article, meaning that based from the info in the article, I am not yet convinced if it is encyclopedic. However, this gives you some more time to work on the article to find citations etc. Also, I forgot: You can also prepare an article in your own userspace, e.g. at User:Robinson weijman/Work, and then copy it to the real article after you are done. Just a suggestion -- Chris 73 | Talk 14:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] AfD Nomination: Software Test Techniques
An editor has nominated the article Software Test Techniques for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Software Test Techniques. Add four tildes like this ˜˜˜˜ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Software Test Techniques during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate.

[edit] Re: Transformers film
I had used the information given in the press releases for the article. Wiki-newbie 19:41, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Hey, no sweat. Next time try and find new information from an article, and if there's nothing new, just dismiss it as puff promotion. Wiki-newbie 21:32, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] On Bonney Eberndu
I've now expanded this article and made its assertion of notability clearer. I wasn't the original author and had never heard of him before the page came up for AfD, but anyone who had four separate articles on him in the UK press automatically passes WP:BIO, as it constitutes multiple non-trivial coverage in independent sources. So are you now satisfied with the state of the article, or do you still believe it should be deleted? Walton monarchist89 15:08, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 18:44, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar
 I award Robinson weijman barnstar in appreciation of contributions to article related to Software Testing. --Pinecar 08:49, 3 March 2007 (UTC) |
Appreciate you talking back regarding the Barnstar award. You are too modest in saying your contributions were not as significant. You did contribute to the following articles
- User:Robinson_weijman/STT - liked your formatting style of description, example & when used. Looking forward to getting this as article soon in WikiPedia.
- User talk:W.marsh
- Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Software_Test_Techniques - Yes, I understand this article was (/is) deleted. Does not mean you did not contribute. You participated in healthy debate - may be with revised thought this article has a significant potential of returning back to existence. I want to do a small part by motivating the Editors for their contributions in the areas of my interest.
- State transition table
- Equivalence Partitioning
- Boundary Value Analysis
- ISEB
Your contributions for the above articles and healthy debate (read as - knowledge sharing with peer wiki editors) deserve appreciation. --Pinecar 00:17, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] PROFTEST
Read the test, it's rather straightforward. It's just my opinion. If you disagree, feel free to opine to the contrary. - NYC JD (interrogatories) 12:43, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dreamtone
Yes, I deleted the page as a copyright violation. If you add {{subst:afd}} to an article and it already has a previous AfD (the "this article's entry" link is blue), then remove the AfD template and replace it with {{subst:afdx|2nd}} instead. If it already has a 2nd AfD, use {{subst:afdx|3rd}}, and so on. —Resurgent insurgent 2007-04-17 10:55Z
[edit] Disappearance of Madeleine McCann
I have indeed removed the external link from the article. It wasn't the first time it was added, and it wasn't the first time it was removed either. Please read our external links policy and the discussion on Talk:Disappearance of Madeleine McCann#HelpfindMaddie site. The wiki-site is a private initiative and as such holds no official status and is not related to the search. That is why I have removed it from the article. AecisBrievenbus 19:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] HelpFindMaddie badge
This is Cris from http://helpfindmaddie.wiki-site.com. I'm trying to promote Maddie search and came up with this badge to be inserted in Wikipedia user pages. Can you put it in yours? What do you think? Thanks.
Sorry, was adding a comment about use of the badge as below, but must have deleted my mistake. Harry was a white dog with black spots 20:15, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair-use
Fair-use images such as Image:Maddie.jpg are only permitted in articles, not on user pages. I had to remove it from yours, sorry. --Yamla 16:13, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Edit summary
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. TerriersFan 16:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- Fair point. I do try to enter information when relevant, as you will have seen, but for minor points I don't. I must admit to being a bit taken aback by your comment. Sure, I could improve, but I'm not doing badly. I guess I'm just disappointed that, after a lot of work, I only get criticism and not thanks. Please reply on my page. Robinson weijman 18:13, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, this template is not intended as criticism but as an explanation as to why the use of edit summaries is helpful. I, for one, appreciate your contributions but giving each other thanks is something that we are bad at and should do more often. TerriersFan 21:29, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
