Articles without sources
Please don't create articles without sources, as you did with Earl Greenburg. And especially don't include claims about sexuality with a source - regardless of whether the person is dead or not. Pairadox (talk) 20:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Ok Thanks i will argree with the articles without sources but in the obituary it says his former partner Rich ... and his life partner David ...... There for i only stated his sexuality due to the charities he worked with for his deceased partner. Chandlerjoeyross (talk) 23:37, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Hello. I've noticed that you are interested in journalists, even competing with me to see who would create Alaa Abdulkareem Fartusi first.:) On that same subject, I would like to offer you an invitation to create Pierre Billaud. I've been wanting to create it for a while now but never really got around to it. Since you seem ever so eager to add your articles created to your contribution list, I have provided you a reference: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9905EFDC1038F930A25752C1A9679C8B63 You can also see my other articles on the topic: Volker Handloik and Johanne Sutton for my format, though you can do it with your own format. All the same, happy editing! Editorofthewiki (talk) 22:27, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Capitalization
Hi Chandlerjoeyross. Just wondering, why do you always capitalize many unimportant words, mostly Born. I've noticed this a lot from you recently and I was just giving you a heads up. Toodles! Editorofthewiki23:46, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
Hi! The obit linked to clearly refers to "Sir Richard Knowles",
not "Sir Dick", which would be pretty ludicrous when you think about it. Arisepoet (talk) 00:51, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Mickey Renaud, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Mickey Renaud
An editor has nominated Mickey Renaud, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 21:00, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

It looks like it is going to be deleted. So god damn annoying. It makes no sense, he was definately notable. Wikipedia has an article on a bridge in Cambodia and that is more notable than this? Ridiculous. All these people on wiki who are so uptight. It really piss me off. Hopefully the article does not get deleted. michfan2123 (talk) 02:06, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Tegs, Ziggy, Jay EEanders.Jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Tegs, Ziggy, Jay EEanders.Jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
The all star game is an exhibition game. Sure, it has some of the league's biggest stars, but ultimately the game counts for nothing. Most of the players (admittedly) do not even give close to 100%. Kobe Bryant (one of the best players in the game) played all of three minutes. There are much more important things than an exhibition game. This is a place for contemporary geopolitical news relevant to the international community. This is not a sports bias on my part- i frequently add sports news, but not exhibition games. Please also note I am not the only user to remove this entry. There is a time and a place for everything. Current events is not the place for this. See you when Finals comes around. WikiTony (talk) 22:14, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
That was the friendliest warning I could find. "TBA" is wrong and inccurate. The participants will not be announced, they will be determined (hence "TBD"), not to mention that "To be annoucned" redirects to "To be determined" (so there was no reason to change the link). You may think TBA looks better, but TBD is more accurate and waht we at WP:PW use in situations like this. TJSpyke22:47, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Royal Rumble (2005) and Over the Edge (1998) have been listed for Peer review. Please review this article and make suggestions for how it can be improved in preparation for a Good article nomination. Their peer reviews can be found here and here.
Ron Killings is still being reported as having signed a WWE contract. As there is no reliable source for anything of the sort, be prepared for his name to be continually added to the WWE Roster article, and information about his return being added to his article. There is also, apparently, an audio interview with Killings where he states he will be returning to WWE with his old K-Kwik gimmick. Recent SmackDown! Taping spoilers indicate that he debuted under the name Kwik Killings in a Dark match. No reliable source has reported this as of now, however.

Jeff Hardy was suspended by WWE for 60 days on March 11 for violating WWE's Substance Abuse and Drug Policy. On March 14, he lost his home in, Cameron, North Carolina, late friday night due to a fire. Fire Department officials currently cannot confirm what was the cause of the fire. Reports also say that Jeff's brother, Matt Hardy, saw smoke coming out of Jeff's house. RAWCommentator, Jim Ross, reports on his blog, "He lost essentially every thing he had and most sadly his dog".

At WrestleMania XXIV, Shawn Michaels defeated Ric Flair after executing the Sweet Chin Music, which as a result, meant that Ric Flair was forced to retire from professional wrestling. The next night, at Flair's retirement ceremony on Raw, Triple H congratulated Flair for his 35 year career, and brought out retired and current superstars to thank him. Michaels, and the whole WWE roster came out later to thank him as well.
The Undertaker defeated Edge to become the new World Heavyweight Champion forcing him to submit to the Gogoplata. During the pyro celebration for Undertaker's 16-0 streak, a freak accident occurred just before WrestleMania went off-air. During the pryo shooting to the entrance stage, a firework went to the upper-level section of the crowd on top. Forty-five fans were injured, and currently, WWE is trying to investigate what was the cause of the pyrotechnic malfunction

Thanks for uploading Image:Full.822128abdul.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:38, 15 April 2008 (UTC).

Orphaned non-free media (Image:WuJin.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:WuJin.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 'image' 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 "Image" 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) 12:20, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
