This was absolutely was not a promotion. Everything written was fact and verifiable. If you can add something that included facts and not slander, please do, but do not just delete the page. All I did was post references to where the information can be verified, what do you want? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spot13 (talk • contribs) 15:40, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi there. Back in March, you tagged this article, indicating you did not think it met our notability standards; I have just seen it, and I agree (it has not substantially changed since then). I have nominated it for deletion; your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Orion's Arm. Robofish (talk) 22:15, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of Article "ODX"
Hi there,
you deleted the Article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ODX.
ODX ("Open Diagnostic Data Exchange") is one of the most important standards for automotive diagnostics right now.
On the page above the wikipedia system states that one of the authors requested the article to be deleted.
I think it is very sad that such an important topic can no longer be found on the wikipedia.
I don't know the original article, because I just searched for it here when it was already gone.
Should I start another ODX-article or what was the reason it was deleted in the first place?
Thank you very much in advance for your support.
Kind regards, Richard —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.49.227.156 (talk) 13:44, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Education Task Force - The conversion of the former WikiProject Education is New Jersey has been completed. New Jersey education-related articles are now supported by the Education task force. The project banner has been updated to fully support the task force with independent importance ratings. No More Comments - A proposal at the Village Pump has resulted in the deprecation of comments subpages. These were usually found at Talk:Article title/Comments and contained little more than assessment notes. These pages were not widely watched, and are often a hidden location for vandalism and BLP violations. WPNJ has 104 articles that used these pages. A complete list of them, along with their contents, can be viewed at Wikipedia:WikiProject New Jersey/Deprecation of comments. It is up to the members of WPNJ to decide what to do with this information. |
The following articles may be in need of attention:

Municipality template compromise; School Districts (almost) complete | New WPNJ members | ||
Legislative templates in municipal articles - A rather lengthy discussion ran from the end of August until the end of October regarding the use of our legislative district templates in articles about local municipalities. Many WPNJ members commented on the concept, and a proposed compromise seems to have been reached. The templates will require some adjustments to fit the new wording, but should result in more directly relevant sections about County, State, and Federal representation in our articles on cities, towns, villages, townships, and boroughs. Hopefully, more dicussions like this can result is some kind of Manual of Style to bring greater standardization to all of these articles. School District articles now comprehensive - WPNJ Founder Alansohn recently reported that almost all of New Jersey's school districts now have articles - "I have created the article for the last missing (non-vocational) school district in the state." Congrats to Alansohn, who I am sure would love more members at the Education task force to help maintain these articles! |

Editor's news. OK, so I am going to try this again. It's been a little over a year since our last edition, and activity at the project was a bit slow during that time. Things have picked up again over the last few months, so once more into the breech I go. I will try to produce this newsletter on a regular basis (bi-monthly?) to see if we can get some more activity going at WPNJ. Help is always appreciated, and there is plenty to do. - Jim Miller See me | Touch me | |||

MISSING USER PAGE
Hi Cobaltbluetony,
I am wondering what happened to my USERPAGE. I typed up a bit of bio info for myself and tried to save it as a USERPAGE but now the things seems to have dissapeared and I cannot even edit it anymore. Have I done something wrong. How do I go back to editing it? THanks! --Skychildandsonofthesun (talk) 21:14, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
BTW, i just tried: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=user:Skychildandsonofthesun&action=edit&redlink=1 and that should have worked. --Skychildandsonofthesun (talk) 21:21, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Awesome. Thanks Cobaltbluetony. Got it working. Still have to figure out embedding images and tab spacing to make it look nice (+ notice that some editors have interesting font changes to their signature when they insert the four tilde's). --Skychildandsonofthesun (talk) 16:56, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
Hell in a Bucket
I actually feel this reset was preventative. Given the nature of that personal attack, I didn't think he realized why it was unacceptable. Had he been more apologetic, I'd have been more open to unblocking. He's been blocked before for incivility--that weighed pretty heavily with me. Blueboy96 20:04, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for commenting on the punitive nature of my block extention. The original block was probably useful in reminding me to guard my tongue. Although disagreeing with my record or methods is irksome personally (for you too probably), you still stood up for what was appropriate in this scenario.

Re: WWW2
Hello. I apologize, this reply to your question about WWW2 is a very long time coming - I took an extended hiatus from editing Wikipedia, and just saw your message today. In case you're still interested after all this time...
I created the www2 redirect after "www2" appeared in the list of Requested Computer science articles. In any URL, the part of the domain name before the first dot is the local hostname of the website. For example, within the wikipedia.org domain:
URL | Local hostname | Domain |
---|---|---|
http://www.wikipedia.org | www | wikipedia.org |
http://en.wikipedia.org | en | wikipedia.org |
http://de.wikipedia.org | de | wikipedia.org |
Sometimes, an organization will have a series of sites using numbered hostnames:
- www.mydomain.org
- www2.mydomain.org
- www3.mydomain.org
This is most often used when the same content is mirrored accross multiple sites, to aid in load balancing. Here is a blog post discussing this scenario: http://agentcities.com/what-is-www2-or-www1/
In hindsight, simply redirecting www2 to World Wide Web was probably not the best approach, especially since www3 redirects to subdomain, which seemsmore appropriate, but still not entirely clear. Maybe a disambiguation page is needed for both www2 and www3. I'm going to give that some more thought.
Thanks, Davnor (talk) 21:40, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
UPDATE: After thinking it over, I decided to go ahead and convert the WWW2 entry to a disambiguation page. Thanks again for your question. Davnor (talk) 15:10, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
siggyness and silliness
hello,
i noticed that you were able to get your customized sig to work... while I am not. I do not understand what I am doing wrong. I have a sub page that seems like it is correct (in terms of syntax) and I type this into my preferences under signature: {{subst:User:Skychildandsonofthesun/Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2}} (talk) and yet it still does not work? Do you have any insight into what I am doing wrong?

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Cobaltbluetony! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 868 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

New Statistics Table There has been an upgrade to the WP 1.0 bot that updates our project's summary table. The new table lists all page classes including Portal-class, Redirect-class, and Disambig-class. We now have a better picture of the scope of the WikiProject and the pages that we cover. New York Times to charge for access The New York Times is an invaluable resource for properly referencing articles, but especially due to its extensive archives and coverage of New Jersey issues. The announcement that metered content will be started in 2011 has the potential to make article sourcing much more difficult. It also causes a need to update linked sources in articles before all of the NYT links go dead. Any link can be archived on demand by using WebCite. We can help avoid dead links by archiving any article sources from the NYT. |

All BLP, All the Time | New WPNJ members | ||
BLP Issue Boils Over There are discussions all over the 'pedia about deleting close to 50,000 unreferenced Biographies of Living People. We won't get into a rehash here, but let's just look at what we can do. There is a new item on the project task list for sourcing BLPs. All articles that are in both Category:People from New Jersey and Category:All unreferenced BLPs are now available on this work list. These articles need to be sourced, PRODded, or sent to AfD. An ounce of prevention Unreferenced BLPs are one of the catgories regularly listed in the WPNJ Cleanup listing. New articles are also a prime location to find articles that do not yet have references. You can keep an eye on the New Articles list to help prevent the workload from getting any larger. Can we do more? There are bots that will automatically add the WPNJ Project Banner to all articles in our designated categories if we have consensus to request it. Join the discussion here. |

In NJ, politics means article updates | Help Wanted | ||
New Leaders in NJ Government Over the past 2 weeks, new legislators have been sworn in, the legislature has new leadership, the 55th Governor of New Jersey has been inaugurated, and we have our first Lt. Governor. All new members of the Legislature have at least stub articles, and many of the templates have been updated. Updating templates Many New Jersey articles utilize stadardized templates to convey information. With elections happening as often as they do in this state, January is always a good time to review these templates and update them with new information. Does your town or county have new elected officials? It's maintainance time on many of our articles on municipalities and counties as well. |

Editor's news Must have been some winter holiday season in New Jersey, because the project talk page has been unusually quiet. I thought with all that snow, many of us would be inside and doing things here at WP. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and are enjoying a healthy and happy 2010!! - Jim Miller See me | Touch me | |||

Article Unprotection Request
Hello. See this link please. I've created the stub here as suggested by Boghog2. Could you unprotect the article for me now so I can update it? Thanks in advance! el3ctr0nika (Talk | Contribs) 01:53, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- Seriously?? Last.fm isn't a good enough source? Same with Discogs.com? Maor Levi is no question a notable trance musician, let me assure you of that. Just check the Google and YouTube results for his name and aliases as examples. Also note that he has a lot more productions than what I listed on his page as there were too many to include.
- Here, see this link -- it's his iTunes profile. Also see this link -- it's an Anjunabeats album featuring one of his productions ("Shapes" - Disc 2 - Track 1). Check here as well -- an interview with him by InlineDJ.com (read this article if you want to see just how 'notable' he is). Those references should be credible enough.. and if not, really, I don't know what will satisfy you.
- There are countless lesser-known electronic producers like Maor who put out great music but are relatively unknown and by no means mainstream (trance itself isn't even that mainstream.. say "Deadmau5", currently one of the top five DJs in the world (according to TheDJList at least), and most people won't know who you're talking about); hence, the scarcity of references. Regardless, they shouldn't be excluded from Wikipedia simply because of this, and personally, I think the references I've provided (including the three in this very message which I can add to my stub if necessary) are more than enough to validate his authenticity. Please reconsider your decision. el3ctr0nika (Talk | Contribs) 21:02, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- Edit: I've updated my stub a little bit and included the interview in the references. el3ctr0nika (Talk | Contribs) 21:20, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- Alright thank you! I'll look into those routes. el3ctr0nika (Talk | Contribs) 23:17, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi
15:27, July 1, 2008 Cobaltbluetony (talk | contribs) deleted "Ekotopfilm" (A1: Not enough context to identify subject)
I created new page with ekotopfilm. I would like to ask what can I do for activation of our festival ekotopfilm (between Documentary film festivals, List of film festivals in Europe, Festivals in Slovakia, etc).
Maybe I did some mistakes, because I am beginner on the wikipedia. But I would like to inform all about our festival.
Thank you for your comments and help.
