You've been doing some great work on the article but, if I may make some comments to improve your editing:
- Use a more formal, encyclopedic tone in writing. For example, don't say "the local Judas". Say "a traitor" or "a local traitor". See the Manual of Style for some tips.
- Do not use large images, as it takes away from the text. Images are to augur the text and should not interfere with it.
- Try to find a few more sources and cite them appropriately. See WP:SOURCE for examples on how to properly cite. I would not want the article to be taken as original research.
- There isn't a need to overwikify an article. For example, you don't need to wikilink "man", unless it serves a purpose.
- If you have wikilinked a term/name/etc. earlier in the text, you don't need to do so again, unless it serves a purpose.
- When wikilinking, check to make sure that the link goes to the article you want and not a disambig page.
- Try to avoid using HTML markup, if unneeded. For example, you don't have to use <br />, unless you need it.
Like I said, you're doing amazing work and you have what it takes to become a great contributor to Wikipedia. --Kimontalk 12:53, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks Samrsharma 17:57, 25 May 2007 (UTC). There is a word mora which I made link to the disambig page because that is the only one which actually defines it!
The Mede
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article The Mede, 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 "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.
As I mention in the prod warning in the article, there is no apparent reason to have this article. Perhaps we can add this information to one of the other articles and delete this. If you can show it is indeed notable enough and there is enough information out there to create a full article on it, please remove the {{prod}} tag and expand the article.

You have a point- could something similar be posted on Wikitionary to explain the phrase? Otherwise, all guns go.
- I cannot comment on Wiktionary as it is a completely separate project to Wikipedia (though part of the same family) and I do not participate there. But, what do you mean by "otherwise, all guns go"? --Kimontalk 19:28, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Delete it- It's just really a name Samrsharma 11:35, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
