You deleted this page while i was working on the beginning of it. Dave was and still is an integral part of keota high school in iowa. He has racked up hundreds of wins as a basketball coach, been the girls softball coach for many years, is the head of the teachers union, and has been a great teacher for 37 years at his high school —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmynrh (talk • contribs) 04:49, 31 January 2010 (UTC) well there was a story done about him by a local news station is that an independent reliable source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmynrh (talk • contribs) 05:14, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So basically i need a biography on the guy in order to write a wikipedia article about him? (Jimmynrh (talk) 05:21, 31 January 2010 (UTC))[reply]

We believe that this page is significant, because Dave Fish has recently decided not to retire from our hometown school of Keota, Iowa. He has made a number of contributions to the school that are significant for a number of reasons, 1) he literally started women's athletic programs in the South Iowa Cedar League conference, and has been coaching women's sports in the conference ever since. 2) His recent decision not to retire is very important to two generations of women in our town. 3) With Fish's name recognition and political activism, we feel that he is likely to soon run for legislative office in the state of Iowa, and we believe that having an accurate background of him will help voters make an intelligent and informed decision on his career as a teacher and coach. We dont have many "credible" sources on the man, other than the few small-town newspapers and tv interviews he has had done. This man deserves recognition, and we believed that wikipedia would be the site that would understand that even though we dont have a scholarly, peer-reviewed, annotated, psychoanalytical biography on the man, that we could still put up some modest information based on our experiences with him as a teacher and coach. I'm sorry if i was wrong about wikipedia.

You deleted the page Count (Mikael Eldridge while I was in the midst of creating it, before i could add my resources page. Count is a music producer, and if you look at the page you deleted you will see that every single band or remix he has produced (included RADIOHEAD) is extremely famous and they ALL have wiki pages. Why isn't the man who produces their music allowed to have a wiki page if the famous bands he is producing DO have wikipages?

You deleted the page Native American Inventors Association while I was in the process of a discussion with another moderator and editing and adding content to meet guidelines. For my assistance can you advise why this page was any different from thousands of other pages concerning minority interest groups such as the Chinese American Librarians Association or the Polish American Arts Association or the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers or indeed the Native American Journalists Association. I would be interested in your response. As I stated in the articel, this is the first organization of its kinds founded for and by an underserved community. FYI I am neither Native American or a member of the NAIA. The organization came to my attention through an associate.

Seriously - there was no need to delete it You claim it is not notable, yet you have a picture of a random cat on your page? How notable are you or your cat?

Hi you deleted my article on Sian Scott because you said she was not a notable person but I'll have you know she's one of the UK's most famous athletes, if not THE most famous and she been favoured to win the London Olympics 400m Hurdles (women. If that's not notable then I'd like to see you do better. (that's just a start)

I didn't put much on about her as I was in a hurry but most British people will know her name and the arcticle would have picked up more and slightly better (reliabilty wise) later.

I tried not to believe that wikipedia and it's editors were NOT anti anything Muslim, but now I am not so sure. Seeing that NawlinWiki started a page Megan Mylan (complete content of page below) a much less well known documentary film maker than James McConnell of Sufi Films, responsible for starting the reality TV genre - well it just boggles the mind. Shame on your narrow mind. Really pathetic!

Megan Mylan is an American documentary film director, known for her films Lost Boys of Sudan and the 2008 Academy Award-winning Smile Pinki.

Mylan earned a bachelor's degree from the Georgetown University School of Foreign Service[1], and master's degrees in journalism and Latin American studies from the University of California, Berkeley.[2] She worked for Ashoka in Brazil before deciding to pursue documentary filmmaking.[3]

In 2003, Mylan and Jon Shenk directed Lost Boys of Sudan, a full-length documentary about two Dinka boys who fled the Sudanese civil war for the United States.

In 2008, Smile Train executives, who had been impressed with "Lost Boys", asked Mylan to direct a film about their efforts to provide cleft palate surgery in developing countries. Mylan was at first reluctant, thinking "I don't do PSAs", but was eventually persuaded to travel to Varanasi, India to direct Smile Pinki.[4][5] That 39-minute film, about a six-year old Indian girl who receives cleft palate surgery through Smile Train, won the 2008 Academy Award for Best Documentary (Short Subject).

Mylan is currently working on a film on the struggle for racial equality in Brazil.[6] —Preceding unsigned comment added by BrokenEarthNaturals (talk • contribs) 05:12, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

NawlinWiki,

Another Wikipedia reviewer, WikiDan 61, suggested not five minutes after I hit "save", that the page for my book, "Land That I Love" would be taken down in a week because Wikipedia doesn't list "non-notable" books that haven't been published yet. I understand and appreciate the reasons behind that. And I responded on his talk page to what I considered to be his objection:

"I understand your reluctance to list this work prior to its publication, but it's not like it's still being shopped around. Land That I Love was accepted by a publisher months ago, has been through multiple iterations with a skilled editor, features professionally drawn cover art, and has an announced launch date only two months hence. You can take down this page if you want but, on March 19 when the book is out, it'll be back up. Why make both of us go through the trouble?"

In the time it took me to write that reply, though, you took down the page without warning for entirely different -- and erroneous -- reasons: "G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion: ad for selfpublished book". I take exception to that. It's not advertising. The entry was intended in part for promotion, but the same could be said for many if not most Wikipedia entries; I take the key word to be "unambiguous" and it is most definitely ambiguous because the character profiles and plot summary are intended as aids to the enjoyment of the book by people once they have already bought it. Also, it is most assuredly not "selfpublished". Why would I, a New Yorker, set up a dummy corporation in South Africa? I have a stack of rejection notes from a litany of other publishers and a couple years of dust collecting on the manuscript until I hooked up with Joan de la Haye at Rebel. That's because I refused to self-publish. I have not paid a dime for the editing, art or distribution services Rebel provides. They get their cut of the sales and I get mine. No advance, but no subsidy either -- just like any other non-celebrity, first-time, professionally published author.

Fortunately, I cut-and-pasted the content to my book's Facebook fan page before you took it down so abruptly.

What recourse do I have?

Cordially,

I would ask that you reconsider deletion of the article about Steven C. Luby. I am documenting Steve's work as a software and composites engineer who developed a proprietary and unique tool that allows composites materials engineers to go beyond just the CAD system using non-geometric data sources to develop and manufacture accurate composites parts more effectively than via the previously manual aspect of development and manufacturing. His work, begun at MIT led to a commercial venture that is now considered one of the leading companies in the field.

Hi Nawlin, The Theta healing article does not read like an advert. It is informative and non biast. Please reconsider it.

Theta healing is a spiritual practice developed by Vianna Stibal.

Although Theta waves can be recorded ,using electrodes, there is no scientific evidence for Theta Healing or any mechanism for its manipulation.

It has been described by some participants as a mixture of self help , religion, and Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). Almost all participants say Theta healing has had a positive effect.

I am somewhat new to Wikipedia and left you a comment on the Jesse Stretch page. Please let me know if you are able to access this comment and if it makes sense to you. I will cut and paste it here just in case (see below)-

Besides being an author, Jesse Stretch (and his book) is the catalyst for the founding of a ministry which has made incredible strides in the Virginia prison community. This ministry is called Desperate Highway Ministries and was founded by pastor Wayne Watkins earlier in 2009. I believe I cited the ministry's website in the Jesse Stretch article. The reason for Stretch's inclusion in Wikipedia has more to do with forming a complete picture of a book which has sold thousands of copies and changed the lives of countless prisoners. It is a self-published book, sure, but it's actually very well rated by purchasers and has outsold (and outranked) many major publications (I do have information to substantiate these claims). Someone should probably do an entry on the ministry which sprung up as a result of his book. I do not know if I have sufficient contact ability to write such an article, but I will try to make something happen in the next couple weeks to satisfy this group's needs MitchBauserman (talk) 17:42, 13 December 2009 (UTC) Mitch Bauserman

im sorry are you saying that the federal government is not a reliable second source? now what exactly is (and im taking into account here you are from a HEAVILY ANTI-UNION STATE , bias anyone?) reasoning for the federal governament to not be a vaild secondary source?Ill have to make shure the folks at region 19 are aware of this.

your non answer to my first question did not impress me , and if you think I can t read around 3rd grade dodges like that are going to was , im falling over laughing.

So on my own I founded the united protection officers of america ( N.ational L.abor R.elations B.oard case 19-VR-053) this you may or may not realize is in fact the feds.

how do you figure , kicking the worlds largest union square in the nuts , taking a political centerpiece from said union's grasp, and ultimatley intefering with the plans of the mayor of the 15th largest city in the united states is unimportant?

Talk page watcher here, and the guy who nominated the article for speedy deletion the second time around. This isn't even a question of sources. You've neglected to establish the notability of the organization, referenced or otherwise. The union you describe appears to be small and localized; we don't put up articles on every local branch of the plumber's union either, even if they are recognized by NLRB. If this is an incorrect assessment, explain the reasons for the notability of this organization, per

assume good faith

here, and I've seen nothing to indicate a political tendency of any form in Nawlin's edits.

Oh, and for the record, I'm a pro-union New Yorker, recently of Seattle. Of course, this bias doesn't affect my edits (this is the first time unions has ever come up actually); a notable union gets an article, a non-notable one doesn't, simple as that. —ShadowRanger ^(talk|stalk) 17:58, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

sorry but we need to kkep going on this i need to now know why you in fact single me out , nemsa has no information in thier space on "list of trade unions , but no call by you to remove them, the same could be said for SPFPA whos article area is empty and clearly is grounds for A7.

oh and to be straight forward I am still not certain you understand what the word "list means" , after reviewing it in the dictionary all of your points pertaining to it are clearly invaild.

so here is the thing I demand the removal of all blank page articles on "list of trade unions" at once ,and argue in certainty that all of your pervious arguments apply to them

You weren't singled out, you were noticed on new page patrol (at least, that's how I noticed it). When we identify a new page that qualifies for speedy deletion, we nominate it, but we don't go through every conceivably related article with similar problems to nominate them. Either the other articles slipped by, or they asserted notability that you did not, that's all. Don't take it personally. The bar for being mentioned in a zero detail list is probably a bit lower, so I don't particularly care about NEMSA being listed there, but reasonable people could easily differ. This was never about the list page though; we've only speedied the article specific to your union; we haven't removed them from the list of unions at all, so you're in the exact same position as NEMSA.

Since the blank page articles on the list are in the same position as you, I'm not sure what you're complaining about.

  It's up to you really. I'm not watching the page, and I don't plan on doing so, I just found the move protection to be a curious irregularity so I started asking about it. It is probably worth noting that the page does have a somewhat significant number of watchers however, and it seems from the talk page that many of them are still active. That being the case, I wouldn't think that protection would be particularly needed (barring an extraordinary increase in vandalism, for whatever reason). Obviously though, there's no need to go shouting to everyone that the page is now unprotected, of course. ;)

Maybe you decide for an ReUp? Further communication to [email protected], if you think, it´s necessary. Thanks.78.54.23.91 (talk) 11:04, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is a bit of boilerplate with which I'm contacting the folks most involved in the original discussion. I have no vested interest in the outcome. Hi, it's been nearly three years, but maybe you remember the fuss over the dab page

In what was more-or-less an official

Brad Patrick indicates that he's no longer to be contacted about Wikipedia legal matters, so I will be e-mailing this message to Mike Godwin via info-en at wikimedia dot org.

If the pages are kept in their current state, a history page merge may be in order and/or the talk pages need to be put in the correct places.

Let's discuss this at

Thank you for your vigilance in making sure that Wikipedia stays up to the high standards that have been set for it. I can see from your contributions that you play a big role in that process. However, I would request that you review your speedy deletion for the article on LOTROCast. You cite the lack of indication of notability by Wikipedia's guidelines. I would counter that by pointing to several sources I cited while writing up the article. In the references, I included three separate, independent and respected websites (including the mega-MMORPG website massivley.com and YouTube [which distributes LOTROCast's Video content and has previously recognized LOTROCast for high-volume viewers]). These two at least are established enough under the first point of Wikipedia's Notability Guidelines. It also meets point three of the notability guidelines...a few months back it was announced that CyberEars, a major podcast hosting company, would sponsor, oversee, and distribute LOTROCast. I remember that announcement a while back and can go find it if you like. If 'numbers' are what matter, I won't be able to help you there...LOTROCast has not released any listener numbers (but judging from the YouTube videos, I would guess it's in the tens of thousands). I can try and contact the host and see if I can get that information if it is needed. All this taken into account, I would request that you reconsider your decision and reinstate the article. I will accept your decision in either direction.

Hi, I note you have deleted a number of links I had recently put on pages for towns in my local community, linking to Renfrewshire Law Centre. You contacted me to say you had made these deletions on the basis that the links constituted advertising. Please note the links were not advertising. The town pages describe local history and current socio-economic conditions, amenities, services etc. Renfrewshire Law Centre is a non-profit making local legal agency that provides important services to the local community. It is supported by local and national government as well as the court system. It is not a commercial organisation and runs according to charitable principles. There seems to be a lack of information in general on Wiki relating to the law centre movement, an important socio-economic development in British legal history over the last 30 years or so. On pages from which you deleted my links, I note you left in tact oler links which DO relate to commercial entities. This seems inconsistent and unfair. Accordingly, I would be grateful if you would reinstate the links or authorise their reinstatement. Kind regards, Jonkid

Hi wanted to check-in and see if you've read my request, also posted above. Look forward to your feedback. (Original request)Thanks for your feedback. I made additional edits that i think better illustrate the significance of my entry. Let me know what you think and if it still runs a risk of deletion.

I am a third party and am not affiliated monetarily with the company that discovered this medical disorder. my goal is of an academic purpose and to provide support of this medical discovery through wikipedia. the next entry will not mention the research company or promote any treatment procedure provided by the company. however, i feel it is appropriate to include the research company's website and their youtube channel in the See Also section, because it will prove a simple pathway for people to conduct further research into the topic.

in summation i have removed a large portion of the text which would be considered promotional. I am third party and I have further neutralized the subject.

Hi NawlinWiki. I was wondering if I could get your two cents on revamping said page you took down earlier today. Looking at the page for SitePal, for example, I see that it's mainly discussing the technology that is available instead of the actual company designing it. I use this reference because the technologies are alike. If I made a different page concentrating on the Intellitar (Intelligent Avatar) Platform, focusing on the technology and its capabilities, research, history, theory, etc., would it then be in good standing to post?

Thank you for your quick response. By what criteria do you think that the MARUG is not notable? In my opinion the MARUG is "An organization [that] is generally considered notable" because "it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." For example, at www.ebfgroningen.nl, http://www.fvog.nl/verenigingen.htm?naam=16 and http://www.rug.nl/feb/Informatievoor/bedrijvenEnOverheden/InformatieVoorBedrijvenStagegevers/careeractivities/Marugcongres200308. A Dutch wikipedia page about the MARUG is available at http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARUG. This wiki is insufficient for the growing number of international (English-speaking) people looking for information about the MARUG. Furthermore, the MARUG has "notable and demonstrable effects" on science and education. Markajansen (talk) 12:31, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for sending that back to me (User:Brunk500/ZODIAC MOTHERFUCKER). Re: 'blogs are not reliable sources' - i would like to point out that-

• the av club is not a blog, and is a notable source (1.4 million readers a month) which is established by the second link in the article (to the chicago tribune site)
• That links 3, 4, 5, and 6 show separate stories that the AV club has written and published about ZMF. 7 shows an article he contributed to as a 'celebrity commentator' (in the avclubs words).

So this is why im so confused about the speedy deletion. At least 4 stories on someone (i should note btw that i am not zmf..) on a massively popular and respected site (which is NOT a blog) means that while notability might be debated (ie, in a AfD discussion) its doesnt fit at all with WP:SPEEDY.

ALso, for what its worth, i was in the middle of putting in the book reference showing where ZMF is mentioned in "the big rewind" when the page got deleted.

Hi - I saw the note you left me two days ago; thanks for responding on my talk. I also should have commented here about other reasons why you move-protect. Is it just a hobby, where every time you protect a page (not counting page move vandalism) you move-protect it because you like to?

Secondly, the page Amleang is move-protected (since July 25, 2008 by you). Are there any instances when a move-protected page can be lifted because it's not high profile, or if it will not likely receive page-move vandalism? Just curious, thanks! Schfifty3 04:56, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This page has been semi protected for over a year since august 2008 - although it has a history of requiring protection the current article seems fairly stable and I would hope that it would be worth at-least trying to unprotect the page now under the general idea that protection shoudl be minimised where (hopefully?) unecessary?, - hope you read this soon and merry christmas

Hi, i was trying to talk to you about the zodiacmotherfucker article, posted a few days ago and havent gotten a response yet. so please scroll up and have a look. ill be more direct with my question this time.. a few days ago you gave your justification for deletion "User:Brunk500/ZODIAC MOTHERFUCKER. I looked at the article again, and didn't see any reliable sources per WP:V that show this anonymous person's notability. Blogs aren't reliable sources"

Now while im sure it was an honest mistake and all, but the Avclub IS NOT a blog. The main claim to notability in the article is the multiple articles on the avclub-written by professional staff writers, with an editor overseeing them- which are about ZMF. so i have a simple question for you- 1. do you agree that you were mistaken in implying that the only sources i had used were blogs? 2. doesnt it follow then that your stated reasons for deletion were irrelevant? --Brunk500 (talk) 03:48, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

please paste to me the section from Wikipedia:V that indicates the avclub cannot be considered a reliable independant source for this subject, and your reasoning. --Brunk500 (talk) 17:23, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

but zmf isnt a paid staff member, or a regular writer, which is how most people interpret the word 'contributor'. by your logic, would avclub articles on say chuck klosterman be considered invalid, because he has written an article for them in the past? what about the other celebrities who contributed to the best of 2008 lists- would the article in which they named their favourite films, as guest contributors, not be valid additiosn to wiki entry? the articles on him started after he became well known, its not a coi thing or anything--Brunk500 (talk) 06:30, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

for what its worth, www.ifc.com isnt a blog either, its a website for a cable channel, its not connected to the avclub in anyway that i know of. the section of the website that article comes from calls itself a 'blog', but only in an effort to be hip or something- its written by a professional writer, vadim rizoz, the website isnt sourced from reader contributions. if you looked at the page you would have seen 2 editors listed on the sidebar. --Brunk500 (talk) 06:39, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nawlin,

You deleted an article on which I previously denied a speedy deletion request. The rapper is not eligible for A7 because he was once a member in an apparently notable rap group, and the mass AfD pursuant to which this was deleted originally was improperly closed after just one vote instead of being relisted. I'd appreciate it if you could undelete so that it can be put through a proper AfD disussion.

Hi Nawlin - I do a lot of weight lifting and had heard about this technique which is increasing in popularity in bodybuilding circles, so started doing so research into it. I found various bits of information around the web, but in no one place was there a simple, single summary of it, so for the benefit of others I thought I would put one together using all the information I had collected. DC training is not a branded training routine of any kind that someone would benefit from commercially, it is simply a form of bodybuilding training routine that has become very popular over recent years. I do hope you will reconsider its listing to save other people in my situation from having to do all the same research that I've had to do over the last few days. You might also compare this to the listing for "Body For Life" which is a similar programme, although I might add that does have commercial connotations since it supports the book on the subject. If you won't reinstate it for me, would you mind allowing me to get a copy of what I wrote, since I didn't keep a copy for myself, and I would just find it useful for my own weights routines going forward. By the way, I chose my user name simply because this was the topic I'm writing about. I am in no way connected with this style of training.Dctraining (talk) 09:43, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for restoring the data for me - that's helpful to me. I would really like to be able to help all those people looking for information on this program but unable to find good sources out there on the web, so would like to try to get this through with you if a way can be worked out. This program is in now way an advert since no-one is making any money trying to promote this training method. I have no connection in anyway to anybody who has developed or used this program in the past. I am simply a bodybuilder who was frustrated at the lack of independent information on this on the web when I was researching it, since it has largely been communicated one-to-one in gyms or on blogs on the web. It is not a commercial programme, it is simply a form of bodybuilding that has become very popular over recent years. Perhaps the following article might convince you of this - it is from www.bodybuilding.com, one of the most popular and respected site on the web Bodybuilding.com article. It also demonstrates the popularity of this in bodybuilding circles. As does the following in 'ironman' magazine which also quatifies its popularity Ironman article I hope to have described the facts of the DC training progam as it stands. In a way its hard to do this without it becoming a bit of a how-to - my aim was to try and write in a factual way rather than a 'you must do X and Y'- any advice on how to improve the style would be most welcome in that regard. I'm happy to try and find more sources - the difficulty is that the program has grown in the web age where almost all communication on the subject is either via word of mouth in gyms or via blogs or online articles. How many more sources would you like to see, and I'll do some reasearch to try and get them? Many thanks for your help on this. Dctraining (talk) 21:32, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The Wikimedia Foundation has received an e-mail from the author of this document. (Ticket:2010011810036327, fwiw) The letter isn't about the deletion.

No problem about your having reversed my speedy tag on this -- I'm just wondering if you can point me at something that suggests that referees are notable. It didn't strike me that that was a source of notability and I can't find anything through the sports portal that suggests it, although frankly it was very hard to navigate there and I may have missed something absolutely obvious. Any information you could provide would be gratefully received; I'd like to know for the future. Cheers. Accounting4Taste:talk 01:28, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I sincerely hope you reconsidering the deletion of Kazuki Okada. Since I am Japanese myself and new to editing pages, I should ask for your kind help: I couldn't capitalize his title name Okada.
Kazuki Okada is on Japanese Wikipedia for more than two years,
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B2%A1%E7%94%B0%E5%92%8C%E6%A8%B9

and was fully discussed and confirmed notable by Japanese Wikipedia administrators as well as many other media reports that are lined up in his homepage, as a leading person of spiritual healing art.
http://www.kazukiokada.com/e/
http://www.kazukiokada.com/profile.htm
There are many interviews from Japanese media, which you can see on his HP. I am sorry that the articles are not provided in English but there are many in Japanese. As you can see (I sincerely ask you do so), he has more than 500 pieces of art works which is one of the largest in number as the work of a single artist. I sincerely ask you to restore the article. Talent14 (talk) 18:22, 24 January 2010 (UTC)Talent 14[reply]

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
I translated some of the main articles so far Kazuki Okada has been interviewd by major newspapers.
I hope you will understand that they are only a part them, and hope these will prove that he is notable. Thank you.

‘A Wonderful Gallery Healing our Soul’

The leading person of spiritual healing art, painter and a pianist, Kazuki Okada opened his gallery in Oiso, Kanagawa Pref. in 2004! The healing artist’s work field on ‘Holistic Art of Healing,’ seems to broaden day by day.

Helping people healed from their heart.
Kazuki Okada donated his picture and a synthesizer. A painter and a pianist, Kazuki Okada donated a synthesizer and a picture named ‘Christmas’ to a welfare institution. ‘I would like people to be healed when they are here at this institution,’ he said.

Sorry about the page that I recently posted that was deleted. give me some time, and I think I can write a better one.

some questions:

If it is deleted, why does it still pop up when I search for it?

Also, if you post and realize that there is a mistake in the title (Which i just did) how do you fix it?

Last, the page for Genesee Valley Baptist Institute and Seminary should be entitled Commonground Baptist Institute. Again, how do i change a title.

Hi, I've been monitoring recent changes lately, especially page creation. Most of the time I know what CSD to use for pages, but then there's articles like Index.of that kinda stump me. See, it's not blatant vandalism or a hoax, because it's real information. It's not a person or group so A7 doesn't apply. It goes on... I initially put a PROD on it, but it got removed so I just listed it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Index.of. Is this the proper course of action, or should I be doing something different instead? XXX antiuser ^eh? 18:47, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nawlin-

Please advise as to how the Why Mom Deserves a Diamond contest can prove it's notability. The Why Mom Deserves a Diamond contest has been an Orange County institution and has touched the lives of over 500,000 people since 1993. The Why Mom Deserves a Diamond contest has verifiably received over 250,000 essays from young students and has published the works of these students to give them an opportunity to share their feelings about their moms to the world. The founder, Michael Watson, has given his life to the cause. He was adopted and began the contest in honor of his adopted and birth mother.

Thank You in advance for you response, Amanda

Hi. I am very confused and frustrated. I have been trying to start a page for MetaMetrics- and I believe it has been deleted unfairly. First it was deleted due to "unambigious advertising"- but when I messaged the user who deleted it for this reason they could not tell me which part was advertising. Then it was deleted for "A7. No indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content)."- however, I thought I indicated that the educational organization helps promote practices that can improve learning. Isn't that enough to make the organization important? I have attended the organization's conference in the past and am familiar with their measures. Thus, I thought it would be a great page for me to create. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!Jensmith81 (talk) 18:51, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I am new to Wikipedia so I'm sorry if I offended by posting an article on the Landfill Gas page that was about Landfill Gas measurement. Was it wrong because a company's name is on the article? If so, would you rather I post the information about landfill gas measurement on the article itself and then cite this company as the source? I thought we would provide useful information.

Here is the article: http://epiflow.com/Landfill.pdf

Why do you keep removing it please? I'm new to Wikipedia and it took me hours to write all that, good job I've backed it all up on Microsoft Word. Anyway, if you had any knowledge of the railways you would know that the company is actually notable for several reasons, so it deserves to be on Wikipedia.

Hi there, I need an admin to do something about 2 pages one of them is Nubians an an IP keeps coming on to remove references and disrupt the edits made on the page, I have warned the user to stop, yet he or she keeps on doing it. At 1st the editor did it from this IP 78.101.27.136 then 78.101.64.90 and from then he has been coming back with other IP's all starting with 78. and recently someone with an IP starting with 70. went on the nubia page and vandalized it. I just saw that you once put a protection lock on the nubia page, can you put it on both pages to block any IP from vandalizing. Thnx Thesunshinesate (talk) 15:01, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I created the article because this company was referenced in the Visual J++ article. I think this company is mainly notable today because it implemented the J++ Microsoft extensions on the top of the Kaffe virtual machine. There are a lot of links about it on the web, from javalinux.org kaffe, linuxjournal.com, cnet.com, hoise.com, linuxtoday.com, javaworld.com, etc...
