Thanks!
[edit]I sincerely appreciate your comments on several CfD's. I am thankful I am not the only one who sees value in several cats and subcats nominated for deletion. I find your userpage quite helpful, too. Thanks so much. Happy New Year! Pastorwayne 12:50, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi. In case you didn't know, Oriente is an article about Cuba, not El Oriente in Ecuador, and your edit accidentally blanked part of the article. Xiner (talk, email) 12:44, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- There still needs to be a link, and a disambiguation page needs to be added. The problem is now that there is a little known term in Huaorani for which Wikipedia provides no explanation. Pinoakcourt 08:18, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Sortkeys on stub categories
[edit]Greetings Pinoakcourt
I've taken the liberty of undoing two of your edits, both regarding stub categories. A stub category like Category:Zambia stubs normally avoids sort keys in relation to its mother category. This means that Category:Zambia stubs will be listed in Category:Zambia under the sortkey µ which seems to be a rather old convention. It will give the same effect adding the sortkey µ manually. This rule only applies in this particular case and different systems of sortkeys are used further down the stub category tree. I don't know how it convention was established, but it is so widespread that I will recommend keeping it. Changing it would be a colossal task given that we have several thousands of stub categories around, and since the stub system has more to do with Wikipedia itself rather than the normal category system, I believe many stub sorters like this system. Happy editing. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 09:41, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Diabetics
[edit]Regarding the diabetic categories,[1] you might want to see what the Wikipedia Manual of Style says on the issue: "Be careful not to define a person or group of people by their medical condition. For example, seizures are epileptic, people are not." [2] Wryspy 07:35, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Central Asian peoples
[edit]Please keep in mind that there is no such thing as a Kazakhstani, Tajikistani, Turkmenistani, Kyrgyzstani, or Uzbekistani. The correct adjectives are Kazakh, Tajik, Turkmen, Kyrgyz, and Uzbek. Thanks, KazakhPol 06:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- The categories are not for the ethnic groups. Pinoakcourt 12:48, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Copyright violation in Royal Audience of Quito
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/35/Information_icon.svg/62px-Information_icon.svg.png)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Royal Audience of Quito, by Andyjsmith, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Royal Audience of Quito is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Royal Audience of Quito, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Royal Audience of Quito itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 22:16, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
