Shawish

Dear Shawishie, I would have hoped that you configured your email as I could have emailed you. I am quite new to wiki editing and just joined to correct some information about me. Please email me and I will explain why I am deleting the post about myself :) As you can see, I am not sure what is the best way to communicate with you as I don't know exactly how wiki editing works.

Here is a link that proves I am not a professor of computer engineering at this university. http://encs.concordia.ca/Faculty/directory/ECE/ As to the other link, it is no longer on the www.

Thanks for understanding. Keep up the good work and hoping to hear from you soon. Dana Writetodanish (talk) 22:15, 26 March 2008 (UTC)Dana[reply]

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Shawish, 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}}. - CobaltBlueTony 19:42, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I accept the point that there are thousands of people with that surname. But are there any notable members of your family. If so, please add it to the article.--WriterListener 19:43, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! - CobaltBlueTony 19:47, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are many notable members of the family. I will encourage other members of the family to add some. Is that all what need to be done to keep the page? Thanks --KS™ 20:18, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Please read WP:AUTO and WP:COI. Members of your family should not create or edit articles about themselves asserting their notability. This violates both WP:NPOV and is a de facto conflict of interest on their parts. - CobaltBlueTony 20:40, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NO... you clearly "want" to misunderstand what I am saying so I will say it again in slightly different way. I will encourage other members of the family to contribute to this page by editing it to add notable people of the family (other than themselves) who they have better knowledge of than me. Hope that is clear and acceptable. Thanks for your welcomed remarks, please keep them coming. --KS™ 20:50, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Please assume good faith on my part. I understand that your family members may or may not be notable. I have no personal interest in this article; only that it and others connected to it follow the guidelines of notability in Wikipedia, previously linked above. You however, do have a de facto conflict of interest in the assertion of notability because you are a member of said family. This is not any assumption of bad faith; if you actually read the links related to conflict of interest and personal notability, (WP:COI and WP:BIO, respectively), you will understand that these standards are explicitly meant to perserve a core principle for the Wikipedia project, namely, Wikipedia's neutral point-of-view policy. This means that your article(s) needs verifiable, reliable sources. Ensuring that these things are well-founded will help other editors confirm that your assertions are accurate and cause the article(s) to merit inclusion in the Wikipedia project. Thank you in advance for carefully reviewing all editing advice given to you and reading all relevant guidelines. Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 21:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again for your attention. I have a list of notable members of family well referenced to Arabic and Ottoman (Turkish) published documentations. Is that accepted?--KS™ 21:12, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Please review the links above to find out which types of sources are generally acceptable. Thanks! - CobaltBlueTony 21:14, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions, such as you did to Shawish. This is a simple mistake to make and is easy to correct. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you. - CobaltBlueTony 13:36, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will.... Thanks.--KS™ 20:20, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

You said:

Sorry for being a bit slow, but I have here with me about 20 or so notable members of the family.. I can not see how a threat to delete the article will make me load the names any quicker??? Information about the notability of member of the family are everywhere, If you are that concern about it, you can make some effort and load/ correct some yourself.--KS™ 13:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I replied:

Communication is key here. Thank you for telling me that you are working on this and not simply failing to understand the requirements of Wikipedia. I've tagged the article as {{underconstruction}} to prevent impatient people like myself from going after the article's shortcomings before you've had time to address them. I'm not into the research portion of Wikipedia as much as keeping trivial information off of it; especially when it comes to non-English language sources, I am of no use at all, and I have a feeling that your article would be sourced by at least a few of these. Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 14:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shawish, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sharjah (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:12, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/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 South East Asia, Japan/China or India 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. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:50, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
