AfD nomination of David Hatcher Childress

I have nominated David Hatcher Childress, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Hatcher Childress. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Alias (band) and (I Need You Now) More Than Words Can Say by Alias

Please excuse my laziness, but given that all three of us seem to share the same opinion, I'm posting this message here, and putting pointers to it on the other two user talk pages.

• User talk:Redvans did this edit saying without comment.
• User talk:Knyght27 did this edit saying "News of an upcoming album does not belong in this article".
• I was more wimpy. User talk:Pdfpdf did a number of edits - none of which were as decisive as the edits you two did.
• (Despite the lack of edit comment), I like the solution that Redvans came up with. (It is far superior to mine.)

Knyght27:

• Not wanting to offend, but my personal opinion is that Redvans solution is superior to your solution. (And yes, your solution is indeed superior to my "solution".)
• What do you think?
  • If you agree, then Redvans: Can you apply your solution to (I Need You Now) More Than Words Can Say by Alias please?
  • If you don't agree, then what do you suggest?

Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 11:12, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

I appreciate you bringing this up with me. I'm sorry for undoing all your work in one fell swoop (I only just this noticed now!), although really I don't believe that the (I Need You Now) More Than Words Can Say by Alias article needs any mention of the upcoming album from the band: the topic of the article is strictly the song, and not the band's future projects (You probably noticed that an overly-excited fan has inserted a lot into the Alias-related articles in recent weeks). To be honest, I don't really understand what you're asking. Why would Redvans' solution need to be applied to the article? It doesn't seem to need it. Knyght27 (talk) 14:17, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Y'know, now that you mention it, I agree. (What a shame you didn't mention it before I "fixed" it!) Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 14:45, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

haha i should have came on earlier. i just changed what i saw because, like knight said, it seemed that an alias fan had put a lot of information that wasnt quite wikipedia quality. and i was pretty lazy for not changing everything myself. but i guess everything worked itself out anyway :]Redvans (talk) 08:06, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Komm, süsser Tod (song)

A tag has been placed on Komm, süsser Tod (song) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 19:41, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Komm, süsser Tod (song)

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Komm, süsser Tod (song). 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 Wikipedia:Notability and "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(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Komm, süsser Tod (song). 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.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:11, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:05, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

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 Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 09:24, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
