Can you make this page, then?

I'm not a new Wikipedian..this is just my IP. Who am I? HAR HAR. No, seriously, though. Just put up a disambiguation page.

WikiProject Articles for creation Backlog Elimination Drive News!

We are nine days away from the end of the drive, and it's been fantastic! Many, many, many days of backlog have been tackled, and over 1500 articles reviewed!

To start off, a HUGE THANKS to everyone who helped out with the coordination of the drive, and actually fighting the backlog in the drive itself. Everyone's done a great job helping out, no matter how many articles you've reviewed/

Remember to update your running total, on the drive page. This is the ONLY way that I will be able to give out awards appropriately.

Lastly, I will be giving out awards on August 16th. Anyone who could help me, that would be fantastic. Contact me on my talk page if you'd like to volunteer.

Great job, everyone! This Drive has been fantastic, and I'm sure that some members of the Project have definitely made friends by collaborating on the talk pages. Thanks,
GrooveDog.

Regarding Pennsylvania State Senate and House pages

Davidwr you left me a message about creating pages for the Pennsylvania State Senate and House Districts, saying that I should register before createing them. I can't do this for various reasons, can't I submit my articles through the articles for creation page like I did for the previous ones. And if the 55th and 64th House District pages aren't created yet by the days end I will let you know.

Thank You.

NOEDITSECTION reply

Shoot. I don't read help desk stuff very much (which I should, no sarcasm). If someone hasn't already, I'll go remove it.

2008 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament

I did not submit the actual blogs. Someone else put them in and I referenced them. NoseNuggets (talk) 7:30 PM US EDT Mar 23 2008.

I found a new reference for the radio announcers from a Westwood One press release for the record. I guess that's where they got the information on the blog as that is where many of them get them. NoseNuggets (talk) 12:58 AM US EDT Mar 24 2008.

Strom Botnet article change 213.196.220.153 (talk) 18:51, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Hallo, Davidwr!

Thanks for the tips, how to use Wiki more efficiently and for your time and input! Never knew about possibility to discuss online, using Wiki generally for education. I think its great!

About the change, I changed "Later provocative subjects included, Chinese missile shot down USA aircraft" to ".. Russian aircraft/satellite." in Storm Botnet Storm botnet article, because I was cross-reading on the origins of zombiebots and in the original article on Storm Worm, which data is used at Storm botnet, the phrase is stated as: "Chinese/Russian missile shot down Chinese/Russian satellite/aircraft".

Following the link(9)@Storm Worm, I found this: "The first several spam blasts of the Trojan -- which was named "Peacomm" by Symantec (NSDQ: SYMC) -- came with current event subject heads, including ones claiming to include video of a Chinese missile attack or proof that Saddam Hussein lives, and bore attached files such as "video.exe."

So, i guess, the phrase "Chinese/Russian missile shot down Chinese/Russian satellite/aircraft" should be modified into "Chinese missile shot down USA aircraft" in Storm Worm article. Just for means of historical accuracy.

Thanks for your input! -unsigned comment by 18:51, 18 April 2008 213.196.220.153 (Talk)
