Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Monkeyjam, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

C Sharp and the Left-hand Comparison Style
[edit]Hi! Funny GMTA issue with your mod to Coding_standard#Left-hand_comparisons. I had originally included C# in that list, but then took it out because I read at C_Sharp_(programming_language) that:
C# disallows this "integer meaning true or false" approach on the grounds that forcing programmers to use expressions that return exactly bool can prevent certain types of programming mistakes such as if (a = b) (use of = instead of ==).
So the technique (Left-hand comparsisons, the subject of the article section) is not needed with C#. There could still be = versus == confusion if one were comparing booleans, as: if (variable == false) but that's a pretty lame way to say if (!variable) . Funny thing, the example already in the article is doing some even more lame boolean comparisons, comparing with true, so I changed that too (to the integer 42). So please tell me what you think. I hope you like the revisions. Bob Stein - VisiBone (talk) 13:24, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
