Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell Theater has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt the subject might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability for the relevant concerns. An example of notability guidelines can be found at Wikipedia:Notability (websites). If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.
If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion for consensus.

- On second thought, I've deprodded it myself. I think it at least deserves a discussion at WP:AFD. You might check out WP:CORP for guidelines to help you build up the article to showcase the club's notability. NickelShoe (Talk) 15:40, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
BlackAsker, good job on getting rid of that spam on the O'Farrell page.
O'Farrell Theater
[edit]Hi, I wasn't the one who proposed deletion (I suggested merger) but I agree with NickelShoe that community consensus (the AfD process) is the way to handle it. In my opinion we don't need separate articles for the Mitchell Brothers and the theater. Welcome to Wikipedia and I hope it doesn't seem unfriendly that your first article is nominated for deletion; there are a number of guidelines that you might like to look at, about what kinds of stuff should go in articles. Regards -- Phr (talk) 10:33, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- I've entered the afd, please feel free to discuss it there. Phr (talk) 10:40, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Edit to Vicca article "reverting vandalism"
[edit]I am reverting this edit you made to the Vicca article. It is unsourced, and as the line of text immediately below the edit window says, all content added to Wikipedia must not violate copyright and must be verifiable. Having done some research on the subject to attempt to find reliable sources for the claim, I agree that it is likely that she actually does work at the strip club in question, but without sources that meet encyclopedic standards the information cannot be added. Furthermore, you described a good-faith edit as "vandalism;" this is not appropriate. Please remember to assume good faith when interacting with other users.

Given your involvement in the article, I felt it best to give you notice that I am nominating Vicca for deletion. The article is unsourced, despite repeated calls for sourcing. Captainktainer * Talk 12:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Unfortunately, we can't cite the BrainyEncyclopedia as a source, since it's just a copy of an earlier revision of our own article. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:12, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Paul Mooney
[edit]If you are quoting something from his album or DVD, you can add a citation stating which one the quote is from. But most importantly, you would need a citation for which he said he "has hated for white people" or "hates white people", etc. Otherwise, to state that he hates white people based on your interpretation of a joke from from a stand-up comedy routine is potentially libelous and will be removed regardless.

Wikipedia Campus Ambassador needed
[edit]Hi! My name is Annie Lin - I'm the Campus Team Coordinator at the Wikimedia Foundation. I'm contacting you because you're listed as a resident of San Francisco, and we're currently looking for a friendly Wikipedian to teach students in a University of San Francisco class how to use/edit Wikipedia. This is a role titled the "Wikipedia Campus Ambassador," and you'll basically be doing in-class presentations about Wikipedia, running Wikipedia labs/workshops, and in general providing face-to-face Wikipedia help for the professor and the students in the class. The time commitment is about 3-5 hours a week (with variations throughout the semester), and for this particular University of San Francisco class, most of the workload will be between March and May.
Please let me know if you're interested!
Thanks. Annie Lin (Campus Team Coordinator, Wikimedia Foundation) (talk) 18:55, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
