[edit] Almost got rouge before BigBrother stopped Addict 2006

Please stop. If you continue to delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, you will be blocked for vandalism. --Addict 2006 13:19, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Editing others' comments (except on your own user talk page) is generally not allowed. Written on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines#Behavior_that_is_unacceptable

Well, User:BigBrotherIsWatchingYou warned me so I thanked him for doing so. I told him that I often get frustrated here but to tell you the truth: I thought you weren't supposed to remove warnings from your talk page... I guess that only goes for vandals and you aren't one. I oughta give you a warm welcome here. --Addict 2006 20:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome!

Hi, Wikihobby, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read the simplified ruleset. If you need help, feel free to use any of Wikipedia's hundreds of resources. I personally recommend the Wikipedia:Boot Camp, where in addition to standard posts, you can use an IRC to chat online with fellow Wikipedians willing to help! In addition, Wikipedia also has pages dedicated to the use of Wikipedia, for example, if you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting pages visit the manual of style. Feel free to post questions on my talk page - I'm happy to help you with anything you need.

Additional tips

Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using four tildes (~). If your keyboard doesn't have tildes (or for whatever reason) you can also click the Image:Wikisigbutton.png button on the bar above the editing section.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.







Good luck. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Addict 2006 (talkcontribs)

[edit] Claire Chazal

Welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. Exploding Boy 16:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


Make sure you include verifiable information on the importance of the person, and context, or the article is likely to be deleted by another editor. See WP:BIO and Wikipedia:Notability. Exploding Boy 16:26, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Louis Cahen d'Anvers

A tag has been placed on Louis Cahen d'Anvers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jakew 14:50, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry that you're irritated that your work was deleted. In my judgement, it met the criteria for speedy deletion clause A7. If you disagree, I suggest that you open a deletion review. Jakew 10:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Newsletter n°1

Bonjour and welcome to the first WikiProject France newsletter!! It should become a monthly special of our project, but until the next issue, here are some points to consider for the month:

  • In an effort to determine the active members from the inactive, all members are asked to simply sign on my special userpage.
  • I have slightly rearranged and updated the Project page, putting all the featured lists in collapsible tables. This unclutteres the page and you only have to see them if you want to. Give your feelings at the talk page.
  • I have made a Wikipedia advert for our project, Image:Qxz-ad108.gif, what do you think? Personally I feel the words need improving ...
  • There are still map problems at Template:French commune - any help at resolving them would be greatly appreciated.
  • What about starting a monthly drive? We currently have no Featured Portals (except for the Basque Portal which really isn't French any way), so how about improving Portal:France??? I don't know what's exactly wrong but the criteria can be seen at Wikipedia:Featured portal criteria.

It doesn't seem like a lot, so I hope we will still have enough problems for nexts months issue. Salut till the next issue, ChrisDHDR (17:22, 10 November 2007 (UTC)).

[edit] WikiProject Newsletter n°2

It's been one high aiming month! The French WikiProject and related pages have been aiming high for Christmas - and have received an equal number of presents in return!

Well, that's this issue. Au revoir et à bientôt till the next time, ChrisDHDR (18:52, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).

[edit] Happy Birthday!

Just a happy Birthday message to you, Wikihobby, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day!
