April May

Some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article April May may not be sufficiently well-known to merit articles of their own. The Wikipedia community welcomes newcomers, and encourages them to become Wikipedians. On Wikipedia, each user is entitled to a user page in which they can describe themselves, and this article's content may be incorporated into that page. However, to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia proper, a subject must be notable. We encourage you to write or improve articles on notable subjects. TigerShark 18:33, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jamhaw, there is no point in having a bunch of redlinks to non articles. Also, the link for "abby" doesn't go to that character, but to something else entirely. You cannot add a brief bit of text about the character "abby" in an article about another movie. The Abby article isn't a disambiguation page. IrishGuy 17:41, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am not Homer

As they say in the movies, "oh be-have". Seriously, though, we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so don't make joke edits. Some readers looking for a serious article might not find them amusing. Remember, millions of people read Wikipedia, so we have to take what we do a bit seriously here. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write whatever you want (as long as it's not offensive).

Where do you get the idea that it was a test it was the very begining of a new article! Jamhaw 18:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)jamhaw[reply]

Can you expand it at all? Why is it notable? It was deleted because the article failed to answer this question. I have categorised the article and cleaned up the spelling errors. (aeropagitica) (talk) 18:36, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It would be eSY to expand you may notice that I just remade the article and it is even bigger and it would be far larger if I had not had to remake it and if other people start writing more to it it is even bigger it only existed for approximtley ten seconds before you deleted it so give me a break. As for notability it's more notable than some to my knowedge it's the only time shorts made by kids have been on puplic televison. Is there even a limit to how many articles wikipedia can have? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamhaw (talk • contribs)

The have been no further edits to this article since I tagged it for expansion and notability. Your defence of the article by generalising on weaker articles doesn't demonstrate the notability of the subject. Do you have a reference for your belief that this is the first time short films made by children have been shown on Canadian public television? If you do then this can be the claim for notability. This is the basic question that every editor should be able to answer when starting an article on Wikipedia - why is this subject notable? Every article should originate from this answer. (aeropagitica) (talk) 19:51, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There have been more I wrote them you deleted the article and the new article is bigger. Also IS THERE ANY LIMIT TO ARTICLES ON WIKIPEDIA. If there is then we should delete a large number of articles possibly including this one it is more notable than quite a few if you have problems with small articles I would suggest looking at StarCraft,StarWars, and other things which have massive amounts of articles on things that don't appear in the movies books or anything but fan magizines but they deserve an article because they exist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamhaw (talk • contribs)

The edit history on the article indicates otherwise. You can see what the theorectical limits to Wikipedia are on this page. I'm only asking one question, why is this programme notable? Pointing to other articles rather than answering this question is a logical fallacy. I am not going to hound you on this matter as I have no axe to grind and am no pedant. (aeropagitica) (talk) 20:08, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's not that notable when compared to world war 2 but I think it is notable enough to get an article. Jamhaw 20:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)jamhaw[reply]

OK, why? Notability isn't relative - the subject of an article is, or should be, notable in-and-of itself. I'm not telling you off about this. Do me a favour - if you can't answer "Because..." to the why question then please let us close this correspondance as it is getting nowhere. (aeropagitica) (talk) 20:20, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New articles

When creating new articles, please don't save the first draft until it is complete enough to obviously comply with the Wikipedia:Notability criteria. If it isn't possible for someone with no previous knowledge to understand what the article is about and why it is notable, then the article may be deleted. Deletion does not preclude you from writing a new article at the same title that does satisfy these guidelines, so just take your time and write a good one the first time. An example of a great first draft is an article I wrote on Power Pete. It is much longer than necessary for an initial edit, but proper format, wikilinks, references and any relevant external links are all things that an article should have. —WAvegetarian•(talk) 20:26, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry that you were left in the dark about that. In the future, when you get to a page that doesn't exist/has been deleted (like StarCraft Ghost: Nova), the message that displays includes a link to the deletion log. This will tell you who deleted it and what their reasoning was. I just found a better example of a book stub for you: The Madness of King George (book). It hasn't been edited since I wrote it other than someone changing the stub tag, but it is an exmaple of a good short article. In general, mass publication books are included, but they should have the author, ISBN, publisher, publication date, etc. as well as a brief description. I find that when starting new articles it is easier to write the articles in a word processing program and then copy&paste them into Wikipedia. —WAvegetarian•(talk) 20:35, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Hammer of Kharas

Hello! As far as I know, there is a Dragonlance sourcebook about the recovery. I do not remember a released book explaining that, though. As for the neutral dragons, I have only heard fan rules about the gem dragons. I noticed that the In Search of Dragons sourcebook preview says something about neutral dragons, but I don't have it. I will ask some other guys to see what they think. You could ask in the Dragon (Dungeons & Dragons) talk page if there are such neutral dragons. -- ReyBrujo 20:36, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If I recall correctly, at the end of Stormblade the group realizes that the Hammer of Kharas is hidden in a tomb (cannot remember if it was Kharas's or Duncan's tomb), and decide to go after it. But the travel through the tomb and the finding has never been explained, other than in sourcebooks (again, as far as I remember). -- ReyBrujo 15:09, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

StarCraft boxes

No, I did not put the boxes there, but they are on the page, at the end of the "Trivia" section. User:Nismojoe is the person you want to talk to. howch e ng {chat} 15:55, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About WarCraft

I don't know why the prior article was deleted; I didn't see anything in the deletion log. What was the exact title of the article?

At any rate, it's a good idea not to create articles with no content. If you want to create draft articles, you can do so in your userspace, such as at User:Jamhaw/WarCraft (film), and the copy the content into article space when it ready to stand on its own. Not much is needed for an article to stand on its own, something like

WarCraft is an upcoming movie based on the video game WarCraft

along with a link to imdb.com or some other reliable source establishing that this is for real, will save you from a {{db-empty}}. Also, very short articles should be tagged with an appropriate stub template; in your case, {{film-stub}}.

Hope that helps!

--EngineerScotty 18:45, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Because this article was a recreation of deleted material (see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Warcraft (film)), I tagged it for speedy deletion. (Where, incidentally, the consensus was that such an article was crystal balling.) I suggest you just reference the prees release concerning the movie rights of Warcraft at Warcraft, Warcraft Universe & Blizzard Entertainment. -- Scientizzle 16:49, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay, I have been away. Regarding your question, I think I had already answered that in the talk page of the article, but in any case, feel free to add any information as long as you find a reference. -- ReyBrujo 17:52, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation in A Matter of Profit

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on A Matter of Profit, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because A Matter of Profit is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting A Matter of Profit, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Songs of Power

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Songs of Power, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (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. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. B. Wolterding 12:29, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on The Wheel of Time Roleplaying Game, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

does not assert any significance, importance etc of the subject

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Merkinsmum 00:44, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

December 2007

A tag has been placed on The Man With the Iron Heart requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Rt . 16:35, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm...I've removed the speedy deletion template, but make sure to expand the article. I'd also try to add more sources that are reliable, and verify and claims. If you don't, I predict another user may bring it to Articles for Deletion, where other users discuss the keeping or deletion of a page, as is, WP:CRYSTAL will be cited as a main delete. Regards, Rt . 16:55, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! :)

As someone who's worked on D&D and/or RPG articles before, I'm inviting you to participate in our goal to both improve articles that have been selected to be placed in the next Wikipedia DVD release, as well as nominate more to be selected for this project.

Proposed deletion of "Darkness Within: The Dark Legacy"

The deletion of an article you created, Darkness Within: The Dark Legacy, has been proposed for the following reason:

Upcoming video game with no assertion of notability.

You are welcome to improve the article to meet Wikipedia's quality standards and remove the deletion notice from the article. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion, though in such cases, further discussion may take place at Articles for deletion, and the article may still be deleted if there is a consensus to do so.

Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy. You may wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 19:38, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Darkness Within: The Dark Legacy

It was a proposed deletion, so you had five days before an administrator was allowed to do the actual deletion. Anyway, now that you inserted some context, it is an article worth keeping. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 19:46, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New wiki

Hi. I found a wiki that was founded by Jimbo called Wikia. It allows you to create your own wikis. With it, I created Factpedia. Would you like to sign up on Factpedia? I just put this message here because you do a lot of editing and you may be a good addition in creating articles and helping the wiki grow. Here is a link to Factpedia if you are interested.
