Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of Colditz Castle staff

Welcome, DonBruce! I noticed that you placed a vote on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of Colditz Castle staff. Participation in the community is encouraged, of course, but your status as a brand new user means that your vote might not be counted. Please understand that this is a common practice on Wikipedia, and that it is necessary to prevent deliberate misuse of our voting systems. Straw polls on Wikipedia are meant to measure community consensus, and should not necessarily be taken as literal one-member one-vote voting. However, please do make further contributions to Wikipedia, and express your opinion on policy matters.

Survivor

I see you've been adding a lot of information about the current series of Survivor to the Survivor (TV series) article. Were you aware there is a seperate Survivor: Guatemala article? Generally information about the indivdual series go in the specific articles and only information about the series as a whole goes in the main article. MK2 18:07, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I searched for articles on the individual Survivor games at one point, but did not find them, even though I knew that there were separate articles for each separate game for most of the other reality TV shows. I'll remove my list for Survivor: Guatamala. Thank you for the information. DonBruce 19:59, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Camp Albuquerque

Hi Don, Thank you for contributing so much to the article on the Camp Albuquerque POW camp. I wanted to let you know that I am working on the article as part of the wikification project -- something editors do to improve the structure of an article. With your expertise on the topic, I would recommend keeping special watch of this page to make sure the information stays accurate in case any editors make a mistake. Thanks, Guroadrunner 05:39, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
