Article lede paragraphsHi. I noted you had added the heading 'Overview' to Crane (machine). While I agree that it makes a certain amount of sense to divide the article up like that, I presume you hadn't realised you are actually going against Wiki policy. Can I recommend you take a read of WP:LEDE? I only discovered it fairly recently, and have found it to be very helpful. It is quite worrying to realise how many articles fall short of its recommendations. A significant point I noted is that "Wikipedia 1.0" (the CD-ROM version) may use ONLY the lede paragraph of an article, which must therefore stand alone to describe the entire article in four paragraphs! I have modified crane(machine) to suit, retaining your heading for the paragraph which would not be appropriate in a stand-alone lede. This particular lede was written with WP:LEDE in mind, although I think it still requires further work. I have noted you applying similar changes to other articles, and the issue of breaking WP:LEDE has not occurred to me before. You may want to re-examine some of these articles with this in mind.

My editsI thought it might be useful if I explained what I've been doing. I've seen a lot of articles on Wikipedia which look a mess and are difficult to read for two main reasons. (1) They have no headings or (2) they have headings but the lead paragraph is so long that it has pushed the Table of Contents (TOC) box half-way down the page. I am tidying up these articles and I think they now look better but, of course, others may disagree. My aim is to produce articles which are clear and easy to read. I may, sometimes, be breaking some rules but I would draw the reader's attention to Wikipedia:Ignore all rules.

While I agree in principle, the truth is that the Oxford-Worcester-Wolverhampton Line is a railway line - which is distinctly different from the Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton Railway, which was a railway company. Feel free to disagree. I agree with your plan to merge West Midlands Railway with the article however. Worley-d 02:06, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Multiplexing and multiple access fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason: very funny, though ^_^

Thank you. That's a good suggestion. Biscuittin 19:30, 17 July 2007 (UTC) WatchesI had seen that but most people will not expect to arrive at Pilot watch which is one type of wristwatch. To my mind watch is the more logical target. However, you could try Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting potentially controversial moves. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 12:59, 16 August 2007 (UTC) Hello! Interesting article on the OKTA refinery! I read on the company (Hellenic Petroleum) documents that the OKTA refinery covers 86% of the needs of your country. Are you sure of your numbers (4 million tons/1,25 million tons)?

I should have looked at the history and reverted. I've restored the article. Thanks! NawlinWiki 22:05, 19 September 2007 (UTC) Re: Radiation biologyI deleted Radiation biology per WP:CSD#R1. It had been turned into a redirect in 2005 after the article was merged with Radiobiology. Radiobiology was subsequently deleted, leaving a broken redirect. Cheers. --MZMcBride 01:27, 20 September 2007 (UTC)  This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Cabbage patch dance, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Cabbage patch. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article. If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies.
