George Washington Truett

Hi, I just want you to know that I've improved the article of George Washington Truett through your concerns addressed on the GA talk page. Now that I have, can you please review the article to see if it comports with WP:NPOV? Thanks. Spaghetti07205 (talk) 21:33, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not 100-percent certain the article bylined to Eugene Visser is WP:RS. It appears to just be a PDF hosted on an open-upload site. Other than that I think this is pretty close. LavaBaron (talk) 21:39, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Alright, I have replaced it with an even better, more reliable source. Spaghetti07205 (talk) 21:42, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

That looks good. If you want to renominate it for GA I'll re-review it. LavaBaron (talk) 21:46, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

I just have renominated it. Spaghetti07205 (talk) 22:15, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Snowflake Computing

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Snowflake Computing 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 an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Disambiguation link notification for August 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Leschi (fireboat), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nisqually (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:59, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Wrapped up GAs

Hi LavaBaron, I see you have been busy reviewing several GAs, good for you! I did go to the trouble of wrapping them all up according to the intructions. For example, some did not have their "class=" parameters changed to "GA" and somehow the bot did not add the GA icon to the articles so I manually added it. When you complete the review of George Washington Truett please remember to change that class value and let's both watch and see if the bot adds the icon correctly (the bot reads the change made to the talk page's GA template). Cheers and enjoy your wikibreak! Prhartcom (talk) 19:58, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm not sure why the bot hasn't been working. LavaBaron (talk) 20:24, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

The problem was that the GA template had the "topic" field filled in wrong. The instructions page suggests using the subtopic from the GA nominee template that is being replaced, but you can also use the actual topic shown on the GAN page if you'd rather. Without a valid entry in the topic field, the bot won't process the promotion: it can't add it to the appropriate GA page, and since there's something clearly wrong, stops rather than placing the GA icon on the article or change WikiProject entries on the talk page.
