Lists of henchmen

Are you certain the henchmen articles can't be sourced with out of universe info?♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:55, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

The henchmen articles were all re-directs to start with. What I've been doing is redirecting them to the same page instead of one henchmen article redirecting to the movie, another to the list of villians page, and another to the list of henchmen page. Now they all redirect to the henchmen page.

I've been discussing my work with User Schrodinger's cat is alive at his talk page.[User talk:Schrodinger's cat is alive]. My edits are in good faith, and if you check the talk page I found a few minor mistakes to Diamonds are Forever. Could you come over to the talk page and discuss your concerns there? IMHO the henchmen, with the exception of Oddjob and Jaws, should be redirects to the list page and not every movie have its own page....William 15:03, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

LAN Chile 107

G'day, there's no need whatsoever to apologise to me. As we say in this part of the world, "it's all good". Cheers :-) YSSYguy (talk) 16:37, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for fixing my typos....William 17:14, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Now it doesn't look anything like the work of our "friend". As for the typos, no worries; I do them myself - I have to be very careful to check that I haven't typed "aircrfat". YSSYguy (talk) 17:27, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

With respect to the Somali F27 crash, you're quite right - the airport wasn't renamed until 2007 according to its WP article. Cheers YSSYguy (talk) 13:50, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The collapse of the Kamov - 27 in Kazan November 26, 1980

Hi William, out of curiosity, how is this Afd process related to New York? That crash took place in Kazan, Soviet Union, so I was wondering about the tag you applied to the discussion. De728631 (talk) 20:55, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

I made a mistake which you could have corrected or better yet hit the refresh button rather than come over to my talk page. The fix was done before you posted here. Nominating a article for deletion takes time and work much of which is cutting and pasting. Go pick on somebody else's hard work....William 21:09, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Niterói circus fire

I'm afraid that was added by someone later on - I don't speak Portuguese, either. I did make mention of the word "arson" in my stub, but that's supported by a number of sources (including, as I recall, the Guiness Book of World Records). Wish I could be of more help, sorry. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 13:50, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Edit comments

Hi William, I noticed at this and this edit that you forgot to add an edit comment when deleting the entries. Please be careful about this, as it leaves your fellow editors guessing why you chose to delete it. On the surface those both look like reasonable incidents to include on the list. Cheers, LeadSongDog come howl! 20:32, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

MacRobertson Miller Airlines Flight 1750

On 27 July you deleted some information from the See also section - see your diff. I have reverted your deletion for the following reason:
The Manual of Style/Layout gives relevant advice at WP:SEEALSO. It states “Editors should provide a brief annotation when a link's relevance is not immediately apparent, when the meaning of the term may not be generally known, or when the term is ambiguous. For example:
• Related person — made a similar achievement on April 4, 2005
• Ischemia — restriction in blood supply"

Article for deletion

Hi William. Please take a look at this. Thanks!--Jetstreamer ^Talk 19:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Palair Macedonian Airlines Flight 301

Good article, have added the photo and changed the infobox. The latest infobox can be found at [[Template:Infobox aircraft occurrence}}. When you've creates an article it is usual to open the talk page with a project banner;in this case

{{WPAVIATION|class=start | b1 <!--Referencing & citations--> = | b2 <!--Coverage & accuracy --> = | b3 <!--Structure --> = | b4 <!--Grammar & style --> = | b5 <!--Supporting materials --> =y|Accident=y}}

The B-clas checklist doesn't have to be filled out as it is frowned upon to self assess higher than start class, but it is good manners to include it so the assessor can get on with the job. Happy editting/article writingPetebutt (talk) 20:14, 11 August 2012 (UTC).

Should Joseph Baldwin Academy be nominated for AfD?

Hi William. Can you look at Joseph Baldwin Academy and see if you think it should be nominated for AfD? The article is about a summer program for kids that takes place at Truman State University. The whole thing looks like an advertisement or brochure for the program and all the sourcing is to the program's own website pages. The article even has the program's Summer 2012 schedule. Also, if you look at the talk page, the article has been written solely by their students as a project. If you think it should be nominated, can you start the AfD? I don't know how to do it. Thanks! --76.189.114.163 (talk) 00:13, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
