Please help me with something

An article I am working on, Melodies From Mars has a tag added to it stating "This article may not meet the general notability guideline. Please help to establish notability by adding reliable, secondary sources about the topic. If notability cannot be established, the article is likely to be merged, redirected, or deleted." Can you please explain to me what this means, because I attempted to read the general notability guideline, But I did not fully understand what it meant. Conkern65 (talk) 00:42, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

IRC Questions Redux

Hey AA! You might recall this conversation sometime ago. Well, I finally got it all sorted out! Alas, I still needed some help with it, which I got from Administrator Maedin. If you’re curious about the outcome, take a look at the discussion thread here.

Thanks again for all your help. With any luck, you’ll be seeing me ’round ACC! — SpikeToronto 09:14, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

P.S.  There are two discussion threads at Maedin’s talk page with the same heading. So, if the above link takes you to the wrong one, just scroll up. Thanks! — SpikeToronto 09:14, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

You got a cloak :D I'll look forward to seeing you around! Take care. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 10:25am • 23:25, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

But, just because I’m cloaked, don’t confuse me with Harry Potter: I’m nowhere near that cute. — SpikeToronto 23:30, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Haha, we need more humour at ACC :P —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 10:38am • 23:38, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 January newsletter

We are half way through round one of the WikiCup. Signups are now closed, and we have 129 listed competitors, 64 of whom will make it to round two. Congratulations to The Bushranger (submissions), who, at the time of writing, has a comfortable lead with 228 points, followed by Hurricanehink (submissions), with 144 points. Four others have over 100 points. Congratulations also go to Yellow Evan (submissions), who scored the first points in the competition, claiming for Talk:Hurricane King/GA1, Miyagawa (submissions), who scored the first non-review points in the competition, claiming for Dognapping, and Jarry1250 (submissions) who was the first in the competition to use our new "multiplier" mechanic (explanation), claiming for Grigory Potemkin, a subject covered on numerous Wikipedias. Thanks must also go to Jarry1250 for dealing with all bot work- without you, the competition wouldn't be happening!

A running total of claims can be seen here. However, numerous competitors are yet to score at all- please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. The number of points that will be needed to reach round two is not clear- everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Added template for SuggestBot

Hi,

Thanks for being one of SuggestBot's users! I hope you have found the bot's suggestions useful.

We are in the process of switching from our previous list-based signup process to using templates and userboxes, and I have therefore added the appropriate template to your user talk page. You should receive the first set of suggestions within a day, and since we'll be automating SuggestBot you will from then on continue to receive them regularly at the desired frequency.

We now also have a userbox that you can use to let others know you're using SuggestBot, and if you don't want to clutter your user talk page the bot can post to a sub-page in your userspace. More information about the userbox and usage of the template is available on User:SuggestBot/Getting Recommendations Regularly.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my user talk page. Thanks again, Nettrom (talk) 23:26, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
