simple links
[edit]In Hasse diagram, you wrote [[Power set|power set]]. It is simpler to write [[power set]] and has exactly the same effect. (I've changed it.)
Also, writing [[hyphen]]ated, [[logic]]al, [[cat]]s, [[evolution]]ary, [[rabbi]]nical, [[Egypt]]ian, [[dogma]]tic, [[apocrypha]]l, [[fur trade]]r, [[antagonist]]ic, [[algebra]]ic, [[legend]]ary etc., makes the whole word, not just the part in the brackets, appear as a clickable link, which links to the article whose title is in the brackets. The more complicated form can be used for things like [[philosophy|philosophies]]. Michael Hardy 21:39, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- I should have realised the first thing, because the first letter of an article name is case insensitive. I didn't know the second thing. Thank you for this information. Egriffin 12:52, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
All and only
[edit]A {{prod}} template has been added to the article All and only, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 17:04, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
I do apologise - I didn't notice your entry on the "Probability distribution function" talk page. FYI, there's "stuff" going on on various related pages that you may not be aware of (and may be interested in); in particular, have look at the edit history lists of:
- PDF (disambiguation) (& talk page) and
- Probability distribution function (& talk page)

AfD nomination of List of programming languages by category
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/48px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
An editor has nominated List of programming languages by category, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of programming languages by category and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 18:59, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
