Sid Bernstein Photo

–I got the photo from this site(http://www.bagism.com/library/nyc-stamp-ceremony.html) , and am not sure if it's fair use or not. If you could help me find a better photo it would be appreciated, as I'm not sure where to find fair use photos. Thank you. Drsmoo (talk) 03:00, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

-Trying very hard to get a photo for this page, asking alot of sources, I asked on guy, and he approved, but the image was deleted first, now he's not responding. If you can help find photos, and help build up the page through the regular channels it would be very greatly appreciated. AS your help up to this point has been greatly appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.157.160 (talk) 02:11, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

To do a good GA review you should:

• Always state your concerns clearly, with links to the appropriate policy pages (eg. This article has many citations, but few are reliable. See WP:RS for more information.
• You state what criteria is meets (Wikipedia:Good article criteria
• You check references carefully to ensure reliability.
• You compare it to similar articles.

I'm about to review a good article so if it helps i will give you info on what i am doing and why as i do it.

Now onto featured articles, to be honest I've never done an FA review but if you give me a day or so I will research it and come back to you with an answer.

Thanks,

Did you post a GA review someplace? I didn't see one. Jclemens (talk) 02:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to review the article, but you didn't really review it well or give me a chance to rectify any of the problems you had with it to try to get it to GA. It was almost as if you quick-failed it, which I do not think is appropriate. --Torsodog^Talk 13:42, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Ah, no problem. I'd just like a couple of specific reasons why you failed it so I can fix them for you. For example, which paragraph are you referring to that needs sources? Also, what kind of extra construction/history are you looking for? I know it is a bit short when compared to the facilities section, but I do think that it hits all of the major aspects and answers most questions anyone would have about the structure's construction and history. (I think the major problem might be that the facilities section is too bloated). --Torsodog^Talk 21:47, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Changes on the Jack Chanin page

Dear ErikTheBikeMan,

I am writing in reference to the Jack Chanin biography page.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Chanin

I write you because, I am new to Wiki too, so I want to do this right. You made two changes that I think should be reverted back.

Your two changes consisted of:

1) removing the Ukrainian Magicans Category.

Mr. Chanin was born and raised in the Ukraine, and was a prominent magician in the Ukraine. Therefore, he deserves to be categorized there as well.

2) you changed the title from Books and Media about to references.

Both items listed in that section are pieces of Media about Mr. Chanin's life. While 'Books and Media about' might not be the right way to list it, I'm 100% positive the word 'references' is not the right word we're looking to use. In my opinion, 'Books and media about' is a better choice.

I am going to revert the article back, unless you wholeheartedly disagree.

Thank you for your time in advance.

Speedy deletion

I notice that you tagged the page Maximum Wage (Music Video) for speedy deletion with the reason "an article about a real person, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject". While that's a valid reason for speedy deletion in general, this page does not qualify for speedy deletion under that criterion because it is not an article about any of those; it is an article about a music video. If you still want the page to be deleted, please consider tagging it with a speedy deletion template which does apply, redirecting it to another page, or using the WP:PROD process. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 10:01, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Proposed Deletion

You proposed that the page Maximum Wage (Music Video) should be deleted on the grounds that it is not a notable topic. I am the creator of said page, and I am trying to figure out what criteria you are basing that judgement on. It seems notable to me. It has been added to IMDB, shown in two San Francisco bay area film festivals, and has generated a lot of attention on Youtube. Please specify what in particular you believe needs to be changed in order to make this a viable wiki article. Rycer (talk) 21:28, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Kuru_(shoe_company)

Hiya, on your proposed deletion: How many references must one have before submitting an article on a topic? Forgive me, but I'm new to this. In addition, assertions of notability seem somewhat subjective. Are you saying that the fact that someone wanted to create (or even 'note') an article isn't reason enough to assert the topic notable...? In other words, how many people need to note something for it to be notable? Thanks! Steve.null (talk) 22:24, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Hrmmm... just read thru the deletion article that explains this; I understand the nomination. Basically, the only reason i wanted to create the article was to update the disambiguity page of the Kuru. I don't really care of this article is here but since there was no info, I started an article. Would it be better just to update the ambiguity page and wait until it's notable enough for a full-fledged article? Thanks. Steve.null (talk) 22:40, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Assessment

Thanks for assessing so many articles. I just ask you to heed that in Scandinavian studies, things Icelandic are not necessarily considered more important than things Swedish.--Berig (talk) 14:40, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

I think the articles on more general Germanic topics only belong if there aren't specific Norse articles already covering the same subjects in more detail. Germanic peoples does not belong because whe have articles like Norsemen and Vikings, and likewise an article like Germanic paganism doesn't belong since we have Norse mythology and Norse paganism. However, Germanic chieftain is within the scope since there's no "Norse chieftain" article, and Germanic monarchy belongs since there is no article "Norse monarchy" (and none should be needed). I do think Germania (book) is very much within the scope of the project since it is usually referred to in Scandinavian history books.--Berig (talk) 10:27, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello my name is max

Hello, my name is max and i made a new wikipedia article 'Taeyeon' today,

but it is considered for deletion because it is a 'non-notable person.'

Can I protest, because I genuinely think that Taeyeon is a celebrity worth having a wikipedia page devoted to her name.

if you search Taeyeon on google, it yields 277,000 results, which i think is a considerable amount, considering she never debuted in english-speaking countries.

please preserve Taeyeon's wikipedia entry,

thanks

geo-stubs

Hi Erik - just a quick heads up that you're going about things slightly the wrong way with geo-stubs. I note that, for instance, with Suong, Cambodia you added {{cambodia-stub}} and {{geo-stub}}, then added Category:Cambodia geography stubs by hand. What you would have been better off doing was simply adding {{Cambodia-geo-stub}} (which automatically adds the category). All countries have their own geo-stub types ({{geo-stub}} is only for things which don't have a specific country, like List of past presumed highest mountains). Cheers, and keep up the stub-sorting work :) Grutness...wha? 01:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:51TgbAN-nFL. SL500 AA240 .jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Uncat

The reason I'm marking pages as "uncat" is to clear out the specialuncategorised pages as quickly as possible so we can get to pages further along in the alphabet. If I tried to categorise all of the 1000 pages, there's no way I could do it in time, since the bot updates the entries every three days, and that isn't enough time for me to categorise all 1000 of the entries. By marking the entries as "uncat" it means that, for example, the last entries, alphabetically, aren't "lost" when the bot updates the pages. T@nn (talk) 03:51, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Firstly, I don't know how to do that and besides, if it were that easy wouldn't someone else have done it by now? T@nn (talk) 04:04, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

{{helpme}}

Could someone please explain how updates on transclusions work? On my user page, I have a chart of active RfAs, but I have to make an edit to the page to see updates.

Also, could someone please explain the job queue? I don't understand how it works. Thanks, ErikTheBikeMan (talk) 23:46, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi Erik. I think you are being caught by a caching issue. When you view a webpage your computer often takes a snapshot of the data and in order to save tasks and memory processing, when you visit the same page, it doesn't recheck all the data and rebuild the page, but instead uses the data from its stored short term memory—its cache. In order to make your computer rebuild the page you can bypass your cache (often as simply as clicking control+F5). When you make an edit, of course as part of that function, the page must be truly refreshed, so that's when you are seeing the template update as a side result. So clearing your cache is probably all you need to do. I don't know what you're referring to with respect to the job queue so I'll leave up the helpme template. Note that Wikipedia pages can also have internal caching issues--wikipedia servers holding old data in their caches. This too can be fixed. See WP:PURGE.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:57, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi! The job queue is a queue inside the software that runs Wikipedia (MediaWiki) that periodically updates stuff like turning red links into blue links when pages are created. By default, whenever someone views a page, one item is taken from the job queue, and dealt with. If you want a more detailed explaination, take a look at mw:Job queue. :-) Stwalkerster [ talk ] 00:06, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Deletions

I'm removing edit summary and pagemove vandalism. NawlinWiki (talk) 05:09, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

As NawlinWiki said, it's to remove vandal edits (commonly page move vandalism) from article histories. Take this for example. The first log entry was the revision that was removed from the history page; and ...from there, the page is deleted and all of the revisions are subsequently restored except for that particular one. ~ Troy (talk) 05:40, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Editor Review

Sure, I'll try to review you in the net day or so. Thanks, --Anonymous101 (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Comments please!

Since you're the primary author of the 320mm article, would you mind commenting on the talk page? Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:19, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

U-41 GA review

I've added the ship name in the lead of the article. Was that the only outstanding issue in the review? — Bellhalla (talk) 21:45, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Mayalld

The first two links were wrong, I changed them. I hope when you say "especially the second" you're not refering to the IP edits - those weren't Mayalld - I merely linked the wrong urls - the right ones are later on in the conversation. I had left them so the conversation flowed, I guess I ought to strike 'em. Cheers, WilyD 02:35, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

RegentsPark's RFA

Hi!

Thanks for participating in RegentsPark's RFA. I would like to know your opinion on this: How would you quantify AFD experience? When would you be sure that a person would have enough experience. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 07:58, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
