[edit] possible vandal on sowiki
Please take note of this IP user. After blanking page twice, now he created an article and two talk pages. I can't read the language so please take a look. Thank you.--Ben.MQ (talk) 19:29, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Ben.MQ, I've posted this request to Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#possible_vandal_on_sowiki, so that someone can help. I don't have any sysop/administrator powers on so.wiki, nor can I read the language, so I'm afraid I'm not much help, either. -- Zanimum (talk) 19:38, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

[edit] GA nom for Murder of Julia Martha Thomas?
Thanks for your kind words about Murder of Julia Martha Thomas. It would be nice to take it up to GA but I have to admit that I'm a bit sceptical about the usefulness of GA nominations. Looking at the GA candidates page, I see nominations there that have gone untouched since April. It seems to be hit and miss whether anyone would actually do a GA review of it. Prioryman (talk) 20:20, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
- So are you considering submitting directly to FA? Albeit not reading it fully, I'd say you'd probably be safe skipping GA, which is really just a formality in cases like yours. But yes, people eventually do review everything. But I'd say a direct jump to FA is okay. -- Zanimum (talk) 16:58, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- That's pretty much what I was thinking of, yes. I'll wait until the article appears on DYK before taking it to FA. I'll leave you a message when I've submitted it - I'd welcome any comments you might have. Prioryman (talk) 22:46, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Your Edit to Upper Arlington, Ohio
Though you may feel otherwise, I do not believe that adding a picture of a girl "planking" in Fancyburg Park to the Upper Arlington, Ohio page is a relevant addition. Further, it detracts from the page's necessary information. Is planking even a major activity that is cited as unique to Upper Arlington's parks? Please reconsider your entire edit to the page, if only to correct your mistaken spelling. Thanks! --76.181.72.77 (talk) 06:16, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Canada's Wonderland Medieval Faire
Just wanted to let you know that if you are creating an article about the Medieval Faire at the park, and there already one about International Street , i think every section of the park (White water canyon, Action Zone, International Festival etc) should have their own article on Wikipedia... what ya think???--Dom497 (talk) 12:44, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Dom, yeah, I presume to at least write about Festival and Expo (1981-2008), the remaining original sections. Personally not being big on coasters, I'll certainly contribute to an Action Zone article, but I don't think I know enough to lead development on it. Perhaps White Water Canyon be merged with Splashworks some how? I don't know how many sources are available for either. But, in short, yes, every section deserves its own article. It'll certainly help spread the copious amounts of information out, so that the main article can be more tightly focused on the big picture. -- Zanimum (talk) 14:09, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] WindSeeker Peer-Review?
I know that you have't volunteered to help peer-review articles, but because none of the volunteers have a clue about amusement parks / rides, I thought you might be willing to do it. This review will help improve the article before I nominate it for featured article status. If you are willing to do it, please let me now ASAP. Thanks!!!--Dom497 (talk) 22:45, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
- Honestly, my knowledge of Wonderland is mainly limited to the early years. The only rides I've ridden there are Ghoster Coaster, Haunted Mansion, and the Antique Carousel. I'd love to help, but I don't know how much insight I can bring, coaster fan-wise. It's best to get an outsider's review of the article, to get an honest opinion of the prose. Even if they can't tell a Zamperla flying coaster from a B&M hyper, what matters most is the writing, sourcing, etc.
- The image of the dampers at Knott's and sign at Knott's should be cropped, to eliminate the watermarking. The image is free licensed, so we're allowed to modify it. I can guarantee that, with watermarking, it won't pass FA. I'm also wondering about the amount of text on this image. It seems a little too much, particularly with regards to swing poles. -- Zanimum (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Re: International Street (Canada's Wonderland) peer review
Hi, the peer review has already been closed and further comments should not be made there. Regardless, I took a look at your replies there. For the map (File:International Street map.png), you need to provide the sources for the geographical outlay and such (on the image page) for others to verify that the places are as such indicated. Also take care not to slavishly reproduce copyrighted maps.
The key problem for this article is the lack of reliable secondary sources. While primary sources can be used, they should be sparingly so and they can only be used for uncontroversial facts. If an article relies heavily on primary sources, it can be a source of concern. All this rules about sourcing can be found under Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources.
Items that rely on primary sources may not be important aspects of the subject. Wikipedia is not here to share the nitty, gritty details of the subjects; it is to present a comprehensive encyclopaedic overview (short enough to be interesting, long enough to satisfy any additional cravings, but not overly large to leave one gasping for breath). Because of a lack of coverage by reliable sources, some subjects may never have comprehensive articles on Wikipedia. Heavy use of primary sources is a possible indication of this. In editing this article, you have to consider that. Jappalang (talk) 07:14, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

The article Great South Africans (television series) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable, possibly copyvio. cf. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/200 Greatest Israelis. List articles that simply reproduce lists published elsewhere are non-notable.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:48, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit] File:John Haggert.gif needs authorship information
The media file you uploaded as File:John Haggert.gif appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.
It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.
Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).
- If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: {{subst:usernameexpand|Zanimum}} will produce an appropriate expansion,
or use the {{own}} template.

[edit] Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Wardens and chairs of Peel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Albion Township (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
