Welcome!

Hello, Thewombatguru, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Dinnerbone, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Dinnerbone requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 10:50, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

March 2014

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Provincial road N34 (Netherlands) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • [Coevorden]], [[Emmen, Netherlands|Emmen]], [[Borger (Drenthe)|Borger]], [[Gieten]], [[Annen]] and [[Zuidlaren].

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 17:56, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

IRC

I don't know if you're into IRC, but WP:HWY has a channel (information page at WP:HWY/IRC). There are usually 10–15 people on between 9pm and 6am UTC, myself included, so if you feel like having a late night, we'll be there to help you out. Any other time of the day, the channel is very quiet. –Fredddie 02:34, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion

Hi,

The PROD process is only for articles, lists, and disambiguation pages; it is not for use with other pages. As such, I removed the PROD tag you placed on Template:N-wegNL. You'll need to nominate the template with an appropriate explanation at TfD if you wish for deletion to proceed. Best wishes, Xoloz (talk) 02:43, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Interview request for The Center Line

The editors of The Center Line, the quarterly newsletter of the U.S. Roads WikiProject are asking if you, as an editor new to USRD, would be willing to answer three quick questions for an interview featurette in our next issue.

  1. What article(s) are you working on these days?
  2. What is your short-term goal for the article(s)? Long-term?
  3. What is your favorite highway?

The space to answer these can be found at WP:USRD/NR#New editor interviews. Thanks, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) on behalf of Imzadi 1979  02:53, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Highways in the Netherlands

Thank you for giving attention to article Roads in the Netherlands. There is also an article Road transport in the Netherlands, and the article Rijksstraatweg deals a bit more with the history of the (first) Dutch highway network. --84.106.90.249 (talk) 18:40, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

I love the first two articles and I've assessed them both with B quality and High importance, they look really good. The latter should use a template for the road signs though, maybe you could ask them to add it into {{tl:JCT}} at their talk page at Template talk:JCT TheWombatGuru (talk) 18:47, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
