- It's somewhat of a complicated issue, but most people feel that Wikipedia is only for writing about topics that have been covered somewhere else, e.g. in newspaper articles, books, etc. Otherwise there's really no way for us to realistically check whether what you're writing about is true. See WP:BIO, that defines what biographical articles are about on Wikipedia. The idea that you can write about absolutely anything is not really correct, sorry. --W.marsh 23:31, 27 January 2006 (UTC)]

Helicopters template
Good work. I made a comment in the template talk about the inclusion of the AH-1, which I think is debatable. Can you also fix the capitalisation? I amended the template, and it might be easier to transclude the template than to copy-and-paste it into the articles. --
{{Modern Attack Helicopters}} should do it. --
- I have fixed the noinclude (I'm not 100% sure why you were using it in the template to begin with) in the template. And have included the template in the helicopter articles. You might want to do the same thing for the SSBN template you are now working on. Megapixie 07:47, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
CVN and Typhoon infoboxes
Good job adding the "currently in use" information to the various CVN and Typhoon articles. But that probably needs to be in a template, and not on each individual article like here and here. This way, any maintenance only has to be done in one spot, instead of many articles. Also, stop in over on Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history, there are probably editors there who can help with any template questions you have.

Notability of Alistair McConnachie
A tag has been placed on
If you feel that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria
- Hi, I added it because he meets none of the other notability guidlines for inclusion in wikipedia. The other small party leaders that are included (and there are only two or three of them) are notable as a result of being elected to the Scottish Parliament or have gained notability from some other activity. If you feel that there is some notable reason to keep Mr McConnachie's article please detail them on my talk page. Ta.GiollaUidir 23:53, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
hi. please explain why you added notability tag to Alistair McConnachie article. There are articles on the leaders of other very small scottish political parties. Please explain why he is significantly less notable than them. thanks.
- Other than nominating himself for election he has done nothing of note. Robin Harper, Tommy Sheridan and Colin Fox are leaders of small parties that have been very much in the public eye over the past 4-8years. Plus, the onus is not to show his relative notability to other politicians-the onus is to prove that he has done enough of note to deserve his own article.GiollaUidir 00:13, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

If someone's really dedicated to editing an article even when they've been told they're doing it wrong several times, the only ways to stop them are a civil discussion, protection, or a block.

Hello Willy. I just want to point out that the template "border" was created to improve the looking of certain images of white background, to help these images to be noticable different from the page background. This is the case of the Flag of Japan. Look the difference:
Without the border, the flags seems to be just a red circle, not the actual flag of Japan. That's why I added back the border template in the article regional power. Thank you. AlexCovarrubias ( Talk? ) 07:41, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
- Hello Willy. I wasn't aware about the position problem, and it is because it doesn't affect Internet Explorer. I opened the article with Firefox and then, I was able to see what you mentioned. I'm not sure how we can fix it, but I think there's some bordered versions of the Flag of Japan. Thanks! AlexCovarrubias ( Talk? ) 00:21, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Your American military uniform question.
You asked about U.S. Marines and soldiers wearing the American flag patch on their sleeve. U.S. Marines do not wear this patch; the only sewn-on adornments on any uniforms are name and service tapes, velcro patches for IR tags, and enlisted rank insignia on service and dress uniforms. The Army wears the flag with the stars and stripes on the upper right of the flag because the stars always are at the side of the flag touching the flagpole and, as soldiers are walking forward, it gives the flag the appearance of moving forward with them as though it were on a flagpole. Why they don't just put it on the left is beyond me, but the flag on the right shoulder is the way they've done it for longer than I've been around and is probably the way it will continue to be done for quite some time. If this did not adequately answer your question or you have any others, feel free to message me back on my talk page and I will be more than happy to answer your question or direct you to an article on Wikipedia that can.

Your addition to Alligator
Hi! I noticed you recently added a fact to Alligator, complete with a reference and everything. However, I'm not sure if its a very useful statement. What size of alligator has this bite force? What size of truck falling how far down a cliff is the bite force being compared to? Does the alligator have the entire force of a falling truck in one square inch of its bite? Does your average truck have the same force per square inch as an average alligator bite? As you can see, the statement you added to the article isn't very specific. Please improve it using the source you got it from, or remove the fact. Alligator needs a lot of work, though, so if you're interested in contributing to the article, please continue to do so!

Italy/Regional Power link
http://www.carabinieri.it/Internet/Editoria/Rassegna+Arma/2001/3/Studi/02_De_Marchi.htm
Besides this link, I think Italy should be included as a Regional Power, based on the definition itself and by comparing it with other lesser powers that are considered Regional.
Italy is part of the Contact Group for Kososvo, along France, USA, UK, Russia and Germany. It has regional influence in the balkans, note that Greece or Turkey are not on this group and are close to Kosovo too. If it wasn't a reginal power, Italy wouldn't be included.
Italy is also founder member of Central Europe Initiative and leader of that group. It has considerable influence in countries like Poland, which is closer to Germany, even in germanic Austria, Italy has great influence.
Slovenian Air defence is done by Italy, Russia's third biggest partner is Italy, and so on....
It isn't a Regional Power?

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!
Your input is requested
Willy, another user suggested at Talk:List of American football stadiums by capacity that we add a column for the record attendance for each stadium. Since you have done a lot of work on these lists, I figure you're the perfect person to give your input. Thanks! Patken4 (talk) 12:08, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
Should indoor velodromes be counted as indoor arenas?
It all depends on the size of the velodrome. Usually, indoor arenas are built for basketball and ice hockey and are much smaller than stadiums. If the velodrome is smaller than a regulation football pitch, I would say yes. However if it isn't, it gets more difficult. It's not really a stadium. I suppose we could call it an indoor arena, but larger domed stadiums could be said to be indoor arenas. Patken4 (talk) 22:13, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- I guess it could. It's border line, but some of the photos I've seen make it look like it's smaller than a football pitch. Thanks! Patken4 (talk) 22:47, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

I noticed your recent edit: WikiProject Politics|class=A|importance=low. LOW? LOW? Obviously your view of the American 19th century efforts to win civil rights for both women and blacks greatly differs from mine. This is an excellent example of why I oppose all efforts to rank articles. WBardwin (talk) 01:15, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- yikes -- WBardwin, this isn't a reason to oppose ranking articles -- it's a reason to get involved in the process! When I see a ranking, I take it to mean, "If I were to raise an issue with this article at the WikiProject, how quickly would the members rush to address it?" It's not a measure of true "importance," but a measure of "relevance" or "interest" (to the community).
- When you see a tragedy like this, find a more relevant wikiproject -- e.g. Wikipedia:WikiProject Human rights -- to rank it "top" in. (or fix it yourself -- as I just did for you)
- Sorry to sound condescending. I just care deeply about the ranking endeavour so I get preachy at times.
- Willy turner, thanks for letting me squat on your talk page. Agradman talk/contribs 17:47, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have been uneasy about Wikipedia ranking since I first noticed the effort some years back. My time as an organization auditor taught me that some tasks may simply be "wasted" effort. Rankings are soooooo entirely subjective, are based solely on the opinion of the group (always very small compared to Wiki editor totals) of interested reviewers, and have no underlying reliability as a measurement. (Reminds me of some academic conferences!) Comparing rankings between various Wiki projects is also impossible. I think the featured article system, both as it presently exists and with improvements/refinements, could be a better way of selecting article importance and identifying good encyclopedia work. Sorry, Willy turner, to hi-jack your talk page for a philosophical argument. Best wishes to you both. WBardwin (talk) 05:05, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Granted, it is a fringe subject of low importance, but if it wasn't related, I wouldn't have allowed my students to edit this article for our sociology course :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:28, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I see that you just rated Wage slavery. I was wondering if I could entice you to comment on the Talk:Wage slavery#Potentially contentious sentence removal -- 1869 NYT quote, just because you're an uninvolved party. (No problem if you can't.)

adding wikiproject templates
If you're going to be adding dozens of wikiproject templates, could you please mark the edits as minor? As it stands you're clogging up my (and other people's I imagine) watchlist with edits that are completely uninteresting to almost everybody.
No, seriously, is it really that hard to mark such edits as minor?

Call me crazy, but what does Ann Dunham have to do with the politics WikiProject? Did you read the article? Viriditas (talk) 22:00, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
I am very surprised at your importance rating edit for this article. The depth and breadth of importance of this topic (if not the current state of the article) make it at least as significant as many of those listed at . It is the foundation of the modern British system, a major factor in the cause of the American Revolution, and has therefore had worldwide influences that are still felt today. I plan on reverting, but would like to hear your rationale, first. Shoreranger (talk) 13:45, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:12439 file.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:12439 file.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Angus McLellan (Talk) 15:20, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (

. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false

Replaceable fair use File:Naughty America logo-en.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Naughty America logo-en.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing
<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy.
