[edit] Freemasonry in Sweden

Why starting a page on a topic if you have absolutely nothing to say, beyond making a placeholder for an interwiki-link? u p p l a n d 08:48, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great call on Northern Wars

Hey I noticed the revert between you and Y on my watchlist. I see for some reason most of the articles include both wars, but the danish version for example, doesn't seem to mention the war in 1665. Another example is the Dutch. Besides that, most of the articles have very little mention of the 1665 war, and instead only include a bit of background info. Shouldn't these links be removed and left with only the articles on the 1665 war. Falphin 22:26, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Yvwv was right! I stand corrected. Williamborg 02:08, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Knittel

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Knittel, 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 Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Knittel. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. 24fan24 00:54, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I've removed the delete tag and replaced it with the {{move to Wiktionary}} tag. It's more appropriate. --Tuspm Talk | Contribs | E-Mail Me 01:37, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Post-war Sweden

Hej Yww, jag har skrivit till en del och redigerat språket litet på din artikel om Sveriges moderna historia. Har lämnat det mesta av din text oförändrad men gjort vissa omdisponeringar av bitar här och där för att göra strukturen tydligare och sätta in utvecklingen i Sverige i ett klarare internationellt sammanhang. Jag har lagt till en del också, mest om 70-80-talen (t ex om Fälldinregeringarna, IB och U-137); jag planerar en artikel om 80-talets ubåtsjakter, den finns som röd länk i texten.

Ta en titt och se vad du tycker. Strausszek September 10, 2006 01:05 (CEST)

Are you sure this is the right Wikipedia for Tjeckisk historia ? Cheers, Angus McLellan (Talk) 16:39, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

It was supposed for Swedish Wikipedia, but somehow it ended up here. /Yvwv 16:41, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ship transport

Hi, I am in the process of trying to find articles to link with a new australian maritime history project - and I am finding the heirarchy of water transport articles a bit like a hollow log. What could be the main articles are stub class and quality - I am also quite bothered by the fact that what could be a 'lead article' is so limited in its title - as 'ship' is very militing - I looked at the history of the ship transport article - and thought I'd ask you what you'd think about a change - what do you think?

[edit] AfD nomination of List of boy bands

I've nominated List of boy bands, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that List of boy bands satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of boy bands and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of List of boy bands during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Blueboy96 16:36, 15 June 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Little context in Marine architecture

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Marine architecture, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Marine architecture is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Marine architecture, 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.

[edit] Toilet history in Outhouse

You were kind enough to put in a link to Toilet History. I did move it, but didn't change it. Unfortunately, when I click on the link it doesn't seem to go anywhere. Could you please figure out what you want, so we can have a more effective linke, and put it in.

Thank you.

[edit] Speedy deletion of Pung Kuk EDM Wire Manufacturing Co.

A tag has been placed on Pung Kuk EDM Wire Manufacturing Co. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

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. Vianello (talk) 08:52, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
