TabsMaking the user page tabs is actually quite easy, and it only requires some links in boxes. You could have just checked how I made my page (edit it), but I'll make it easy for you. Just edit the following part with your own pages (as if you were writing links) and place it at the top of your page: {{PageTabs |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof|Dogcowsaysmoof]] |[[User talk:Dogcowsaysmoof|Talk]] |[[Special:Contributions/Dogcowsaysmoof|Contributions]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Guestbook|Guestbook]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Barnstars|Barnstar Gallery]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Sandbox|Sandbox]] |This={{{This|1}}}}} PS: Forgive the lateness of my reply. I would be more than happy to do the tabs for you if you like. Dogcowsaysmoof (talk) 21:12, 8 November 2008 (UTC) I already did the tabs for you, saving you a couple of minutes of precious time! I hope you like them, if you want anything else added to the tabs, just tell me!

Welcome to ARS!
Unionhawk, welcome to Wikipedia. Since you are relatively new, you may not be aware that if you revert edits to an article, you should add an explanation in the edit summary. According to Wikipedia:Vandalism, "The edit summary is important in that it helps other editors understand the purpose to your edit. Though use of it is not required, it is strongly recommended, even for some minor edits, and is considered proper Wikipedia etiquette." Even better is to make an entry on the article's talk page and on the contributor's talk page. If the reason for removing a contribution is not obvious to everyone, reverting could be construed as vandalism. I await your response. Mgreason (talk) 15:29, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Mark BurgerA tag has been placed on Mark Burger 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding
DYKHi Unionhawk, thanks for your interest in contributing to WP:Did you know! I just wanted to let you know that this article that you rejected for being too old actually does meet our criteria; DYK accepts not only articles created within the past five days, but articles expanded more than fivefold within the past five days (the reasoning is that an article expanded this much is basically a new article). This article was expanded from a single sentence to several paragraphs within the last couple days, so it qualifies. For more information, you can look at the DYK rules or Art LaPella's unofficial guide to DYK. Best, rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 17:56, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
RollbackI have 1 granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. –Juliancolton | Talk 16:52, 1 April 2009 (UTC) Edit War Notice/User:ForrestdfullerI realize the edit war isn't the right way to go about this. However the user above is removing sourced content and is being very uncivil in the change comments. This user also often adds completely non-sourced content and re-adds it over and over once it's deleted. Over all I would say this user is not very constructive in their approach to Wikipedia, and in past conversations through talk pages this user has expressed that he/she has little regard for the rules and guidelines of wikipedia. I'm open to suggestion on how to remedy this situation. --Drr-darkomen (talk) 01:37, 3 April 2009 (UTC) It's okWe Resloved everything and aren't edit waring anymore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Forrestdfuller (talk • contribs) 21:32, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

About User:RuneScapezWhilst I didn't want to point this out on Talk:RuneScape, you may have a point about this user being an SPA, seeing as they do claim to run the fansite they were trying to use as a reference. Take this discussion, for example - they kept talking about their site's ranking. Though some will perceive a lack of good-faith, I suspect we have a user who's out for self-promotion here. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 07:42, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Automatic processing of your editor reviewThis is an automated message. Your editor review is scheduled to be closed on 27 April 2009 because it will have been open for more than 30 days and inactive for more than 7. You can keep it open longer by posting a comment to the review page requesting more input. Adding <!--noautoarchive--> to the review page will prevent further automated actions. End of line.

Speedy tag testing
Welcome to wikipediaIt's a little unclear to me why you placed the "welcome to wikipedia" message on my talk page. I have been editing actively for quite some time and I am very familiar with policies, including WP:OWN. I also fail to see the relevance of the "OWN" concept in reference to the Galahad Lager...I hadn't contributed at all to that article--or Aldi's article, and have made exactly ONE edit between those two pages. What happened was that I saw the article in a list of deletion discussions and I wanted to put in my two cents--that I felt a redirect was appropriate. Galahad Lager was deleted as a non-notable beer--but it's a beer that is (only?) carried in Aldi supermarkets--hence the redirect. I think it would be useful for people searching for the beer to have a redirect and a single sentence explaining that the beer is connected to Aldi. However...before I could post my input, the article was speedily deleted. Because I had no way to continue the discussion, I decided to be WP:Bold and created the redirect. If you think I have done something out of line, I welcome discussion, but I would appreciate you to bring up something relevant instead of just blindly posting irrelevant messages on my talk page.

Few things on GARHello Unionhawk, I just wanted to share a couple of things : GA Reviewers must explain the points they raise, like Kaguya-chan did. For ex: "Major aspects" is unclear, similarly with "Not enough sources". ( see "Giving problems, not solutions" ). If you are unaware, to quote from Reviewing Good articles ~ Process, "Whether you fail an article or put it on hold, you should always leave extensive notes on the review page, ". Finally, pls use Edit summaries. Thanks for your time and review. --Nvineeth (talk) 12:26, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

After you get it, just add me to your friends list.

Mormon Feminist Housewives AFDI don't think it was a horrible AFD, really- hence my comment about the utah/mormon 'universe'. Like any other set of articles with a strong fanbase, it's nice to have some uninterested and disinterested parties looking at articles like that objectively. tedder (talk) 00:19, 8 May 2009 (UTC) Notice about a discussion that is about you (sorta)I've made a post at WP-Talk:AfD that refers to your closing rational for the AfD for Mormon Feminist Housewives.

Thanks. ↜Just M E here , now 03:05, 8 May 2009 (UTC) No-derivs licensingI noticed on your userpage you license your contributions under the "Creative Commons Attribution-No Deriative Works 3.0 license". However, the No Derivatives part of the license you've chosen actually doesn't work for Wikipedia: the encyclopedia is built on us editing, remixing, and building on each other's work. Whenever you add a sentence to an article and I switch one word for another, I'm creating a derivative work off your contributions. Anyway, since whenever you edit Wikipedia you are automatically releasing your contributions under the GFDL, which allows derivatives, this isn't a problem, but I thought you might be interested. -kotra (talk) 05:08, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
GA Sweeps invitationHello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you. We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

Welcome to GA SweepsThanks for joining us. I see that you have already kept track of your record on Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps/Running total and already started reviewing. You listed that Wright brothers has been given a pass, yet I could not find such notice on its talk page. Please follow this sweeps process so that the format and layout will be consistent throughout all articles reviewed by different editors. This includes posting a message at that article's talk page noting that you have reviewed and given it a pass (to increase transparency and accountability in the sweep progress). Same goes to any article you're currently waiting for 7-day for improvement, sending it to GAR, or quick-delist. OhanaUnitedTalk page 14:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC) UserboxenI just noticed your edit to the talk for Snowshoe Mountain, and went to your userpage to figure out if you were from West Virginia (my home state). It's always nice to find other folks from home here on Wikipedia. In any event, I came across this, which I got a bit hung up on. I'm sure you already know that userboxes are here to bring us together. I'm sure you have your reasons, and I'm sure they're very sincere, but a userbox just isn't the right place to express that particular viewpoint in the context it needs to be in. I figure you made that for including in your conflict of interest section, but it really deserves (and I think requires) more than a userbox, and the current situation could really throw a wrench in collaborating. Please consider tagging the userbox with a {{db-userreq}}. You can feel free to respond here if you want to discuss further. Take care! On a happier note, thanks again for finalizing the Snowshoe Mountain assessment. user:j (aka justen) 22:08, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

The strongest argument on the site is not that he qualifies under WP:Athlete, but that he qualifies under the fact that he has been covered in national newspapers, and national tv broadcasts, the most respected general sports sites, and also every track and field and running news outlet or magazine that exists. This has nothing to do with a single event. However, I do agree that the 15th place at worlds would not be grounds for notability alone, but this isn't what most people are arguing. They are arguing that WP athlete is irrelevant because it is superseded by WP:bio. Currently it is debatable that he fits under WP:bio. I along with others think yes, however some people think no. But this isn't as cut and dry as you suggest, most of the people who support keeping the derrick page actually agree with your argument that finishing 15th in a single race is not grounds for notability, but according to the WP guidelines this is irrelevant if he meets the notable coverage in reliable secondary sources requirement.MATThematical (talk) 18:20, 11 May 2009 (UTC) RfA Thank You
Hi. I do not think that the proposed deletion you added to The Devil's Tomb article was entirely justified. You claimed that the article should be removed because it is a straight to DVD film and is therefore not notable. However, there are hundreds of straight to straight to DVD films with their own articles, just see the straight to DVD films category. This film was notable amongst other straight to DVD films, as it had a considerably larger budget ($10 million) than most of them, and also because it stars some very well known stars (Ray Winstone, Cuba Gooding Jnr, Ron Perlman, wheras most straight to DVD films star unknown actors who do not have wikipedia articles, therefore making the film very notable. Therefore this film is more than worthy of its own article. Please remove the deletion template if you are allowed. You can always expand the article if you are unsatified with it as it currently is.The Editor 155 (talk) 15:32, 12 May 2009 (UTC) FYIDeletion of Bilateral relation pages despite ongoing merging effort Ed Fitzgerald t / c 08:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC) Core topicsHi, and thanks for signing up for the Core Topics subproject of WP:1.0. I saw your recent update of the article list. The core topics list is quite old, and may need some review at some point. Also, it was created before the bot-assisted tagging scheme was set up. We now have this list, and I think what we should really do is to bring that list into the main Core Topics page - that way the grades are automatically updated by the bot. First, we probably need to resolve any differences between that list and the list at WP:CORE. We will also have to do the same with the Core Supplement list. I'm currently very busy - I have to grade/mark several hundred pieces of work before final grades go in next week - but after that I should begin to have some time to work on this with you, if you're interested.

Your edit to my user pageI edited Wikipedia for years as an anon IP because I didn't want an account, and when I did have an account there were periods when I made edits not signed in because I didn't want to bother. Frankly, choosing the badge I did was a conservative estimate of my time and edits to this project, as I very likely earned the next one up. It was quite rude to take it upon yourself to make that edit in the first place, and it's even more so because you did not even leave a message on my talk page to explain what you did. At best, if you were really concerned about it, you should have asked me about it on my talk page and then let me fix it if there actually had been a genuine problem.
