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.

[edit] Notability of Highlands High School (Kentucky)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Highlands High School (Kentucky), by Navou (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Highlands High School (Kentucky) seems 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.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Highlands High School (Kentucky), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 02:08, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sokker Manager
A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Sokker Manager, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Marasmusine 07:06, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team
Good idea to break this out into its own article. I had thought about doing it before, but didn't want to until I could get it into better shape. I know there are some UK fans in the project, and it would be nice to get this article to good or featured status, but what a beast of a task! How do you do justice to the greatest program of all time, especially with all the haters it would attract in the nomination? Still, if you think a few of us are up to it, let's discuss the possibility. Acdixon (talk • contribs • count) 22:44, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- OK, if you're game, let's do this thing. But we've got to do it right. That means sources for everything, and reliable ones at that. Most blogs, message boards, etc. need not apply. I think it'd be best to try and source what's there before we add anything else. Making this a good article might not be too bad, but the guys that review featured articles are hardcore. Two out of the three featured articles I've shepherded have nearly turned my hair white (and I'm only 26!) I'll definitely inform User:HiB2Bornot2B; his signature includes "Go Big Blue" and he helped with my recent (ongoing) featured topic campaign. I know he's up for it. I'll also post it on the WikiProject Kentucky talk page. Acdixon (talk • contribs • count) 11:50, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Count me in! I have been somewhat busy with work lately, though, so I'm in as much as I can be. -- Steven Williamson (HiB2Bornot2B) - talk ▓▒░ Go Big Blue! ░▒▓ 14:41, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- I found a pretty good book on UK basketball history that was published in 1984. It'll take me a while to exhaust the facts from it, so if you two would like to focus on the period from 1984 to the present, that would probably be most helpful. If we can get some information for every period, then we can expand and refine it. Acdixon (talk • contribs • count) 13:27, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
I'm currently on vacation, so I apologize that I haven't been forthcoming with any assistance. Hopefully, we're not in any hurry, because I really do want to help. When I return to my normal life, I hope to be of more assistance. I just wanted to let you guys know that. -- Steven Williamson (HiB2Bornot2B) - talk ▓▒░ Go Big Blue! ░▒▓ 20:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of John Riek
A tag has been placed on John Riek 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. Mbisanz (talk) 19:33, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
