Donald Trump[edit]

Thanks for attempting clean-up. Let me know if I can help...I really think this is close to becoming worthy of a "good article" status if we fill in more blanks. Tendancer 16:26, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding some organization to the article. If I can help let me know.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 05:11, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

April 2008[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently copied the contents of a page and pasted it into another with a different name. Specifically, you copied the contents of Stephanie davis. This is what we call a "cut and paste move", and it is very undesirable because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. The mechanism we use for renaming an article is to move it to a new name which both preserves the page's history and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself by this process, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves to request the move by another. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 17:27, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation[edit]

Hi ChristianLAX!

I noticed you were a homeschooler, and thought you might be interested in WikiProject Homeschooling. In this "WikiProject," we have been together working on the collaboration of Homeschooling-related articles. As a member, I really hope you can join, and let me know if you need any help signing up or with anything else. If you have any questions about the project you can ask at the project's talk page. Cheers! - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 17:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


List of homeschoolers/homeschoolees[edit]

I have moved the article back to where is was before, as that is the correct title for the article. Please refrain from moving the article again, so that there are no edit wars. If you feel that the title is incorrect, then post on the talk page and get a further consensus before moving it. Let me know if I can help you with anything else, though. Happy editing! :) - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 14:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

May 2008[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Homeschooling. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 20:33, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This user only made two reverting edits in a 24 hour period. You reverted his or her edits the same number of times in the same time period. Amillion (talk) 01:11, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on Talk:Homeschooling. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 20:35, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Homeschooling edits[edit]

Please do not express your opinion in the edit summary through multiple reverts on an article. Instead, discuss your opinion on the talk page. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 20:46, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, as I said above, please refrain from making personal attacks. Also, please remember to be civil - leaving sarcastic comments in the edit summaries is not. If you continue personal attacks and edit warring, know that you may be taken to the administrators noticeboard for discussion on your future on Wikipedia. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 20:50, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It takes more than one person to have an edit war. I hope that you will also do your part to resolve this civilly by ceasing to re-add the disputed material. Amillion (talk) 00:00, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge discussion for Special Air Service [edit]

An article that you have been involved in editing, Special Air Service , has been proposed to be merged into another article. If you are interested in the merge discussion, please participate by going here, and adding your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. --Deadly∀ssassin 14:17, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Operation COOKIE MONSTER[edit]

In support of Operation COOKIE MONSTER (OCM) I'm presenting WikiCookies in appreciation for military service to the United States. Happy Independence Day! Ndunruh (talk) 05:01, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

January 2009[edit]

I noticed you added a David K. Ismay to the List of Notable Navy SEALs. According to Wikipedia:Notability, significant coverage should be dedicated to the subject and it needs to be independent of the subject as well. So far, the only thing I can find is his law firm's website with his self-published bio. I'm not sure that he meets the Wiki standard for notability. Atlantabravz (talk) 12:08, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

National Sports Academy[edit]

The article you have created, National Sports Academy (Lake Placid, New York), has been merged into National Sports Academy#Lake Placid, New York. Thanks for the creation of the article, and the original link has been made into a redirect. ZooFari 23:56, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas Hofstadter[edit]

In case you can remember making this edit over a year ago, Professor Hofstadter is interested in knowing from where you got the idea that he had spent several years in Sweden in the 60s. He certainly can't remember doing so ;) If you leave a message on my talk page, I'll forward it to him. --N Shar (talk · contribs) 21:03, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stanford University Computer Science[edit]

NTSB photo request[edit]

Are you interested in doing a photo request? The National Transportation Safety Board article needs a photo of the headquarters, at 490 L'Enfant Plaza SW, Washington, D.C.

Notable Rangers[edit]

Hello Christian. I reverted your entry in the Ranger article. The Mueller article did not mention Ranger, nor did his official FBI bio. But then I saw the link you provided in the edit summary. This leads me to an interesting question: What should the listing of Rangers encompass? At the moment I'm thinking the list should be limited to Army personnel assigned to Ranger units. But the article talk page has some commentary that I want to look at a bit later. At present I invite you to look at the talk page. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 17:33, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:47, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!
