Please note that articles in wikipedia are supposed to be encyclopaedic, and their subjects should be "notable". I've done google searches on your "mixed martial artists" entries, and some of them seem to be complete unknowns. Perhaps you could think carefully about the question of notability before creating any more.
Further to the above... Have a look at Wikipedia:Notability, which may help you decide. Deb 15:44, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi
[edit]Hi Slideyfoot,an anti-Turkish user is requested for adminship. If he becomes an admin,the neutrality of articles related to Turkey will be in danger. You can use your vote here Thanx. (66.36.229.70 19:20, 26 March 2006 (UTC))
- Thanks for the heads up, but looks like the issue has been resolved, as he withdrew his nomination. However, seeing as I'm biased in the other direction, I don't think I could have voted in good conscience anyway. Slideyfoot 15:16, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Keep an eye on the bullshido articles
[edit]I won't be on the internet tonight 5/15. Please keep an eye on McDojo, Bullshido. and Bullshido.net.
Use your best judgment, and revert back to the most recent version under my name in the history if necessary. People are inserting snarky comments that can be hard to find. Thanks! --Scb steve 22:44, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
You are listed as a participant in this Wikiproject, which appears to have ground to a halt - I'm contacting all participants to try to get things rolling again... hope you can help! -- Medains 08:58, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Rocky vandalism
[edit]http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rocky_Marciano&diff=84761896&oldid=84760741 This was most correct version, this idiot today reverted everything under umbrella of POV, which is not, go there and see what can be done to be reverted to this version. Everything has been deleted, the bio looks pathetic now, also, do you know any good sports administrators, so we can return to correct version? Today Nov 1st the page has been terribly vandalized. They do not know any history. The Oct 30th Version was fine and the version that was there was there for over a year, go there and reverse, the guy who did this should be banned, ke killed lots of important information., take care. Also a link to Nino Valdez boxing record is missing. As far as 50th bout goes, nobody claimed for sure, but there are people who claim it, anyways, it'g good you put it in parenthesis, as a possibility, like it was.
- Think you've got the the wrong guy, mystery Rocky Marciano fan. I've never edited that page (perhaps whoever edited it had a similar IP? Not sure why else you'd pop on here, though I have made a very minor edit to the main boxing article in the past). Hope it gets sorted. Slideyfoot 13:34, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Could you help me write this article?
[edit]Hello,
I was wondering if you would be willing to help me write either Seikichi_Iha or Shorin-ryu_Shido-kan. Tkjazzer 21:48, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
A discussion is happening right now on the fate of UFC 84. Because the outcome of this discussion could affect other MMA event pages and how/when they are created, your input would be greatly appreciated. The discussion is happening here. Thank you for your assistance! Gromlakh (talk) 17:49, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Zhuan Shu Kuan
[edit]I have nominated Zhuan Shu Kuan, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zhuan Shu Kuan. 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Nate1481(t/c) 11:03, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:ZSK logo.JPG)
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:ZSK logo.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:40, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]Hello Slideyfoot! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 621 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Mayra Conde - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Jennifer Howe - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Notification of automated file description generation
[edit]Your upload of File:Cocktails.JPG or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!
