Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

You're right, "born" is not needed when BOTH dates are provided, but it's needed for people who are living. Let's hope "born" is needed in our own articles for quite a while yet (if we ever get articles). Happy editing, and drop by my talk page if there is ever anything I can help with. Happy New Year!

On 3 January, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Sylvan Fox, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page .

Judging solely by your username, you seem to be interested in birds. Would you like to join WikiProject:Birds, a project dedicated to improving all things avian, including sapsuckers. Happy new year. Rufous-crowned Sparrow (talk) 05:20, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It looks fine, the prod template is there, I would let it take its course. If something happens and the article is not deleted, then you can take it further.. Edit Centric (talk) 01:54, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I'd like to see it deleted per NN/MEMORIAL. Furthermore, it's a dreadful legacy for the parents of that young girl to have this lingering on Wikipedia like this. If it was recently created, I'd have speedy-deleted it myself per

WP:CSD#A7. Thanks for pointing it out, R - Alison ^❤ 02:26, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply

Ok, per the last deletion review, which was closed as "No consensus", with 10 deletes and 5 keeps. I'm speedying this per A7. This already came up at the AfD - Alison ^❤ 02:31, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - please don't create any more of these redirects! It makes it much more difficult to spot which individuals do not yet have an article, and there is usually little or no biographical information on them in the constituency articles. Warofdreams talk 10:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Bird - for future reference, according to

I consider your removal of the filmography questionable. Rather than revert I've added to it to Talk:Sienna Miller and requested comments. Wwwhatsup (talk) 22:03, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This person's article is under the provenance of Wikipedia:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers and one of the goals of that project is to complete and table filmographies. A link to IMDB isn't sufficient, isn't encyclopedic, and can oft times be inaccurate. Filmographies are an integral part of an actor's biography. Wildhartlivie (talk) 22:43, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was not aware of that, and I thought you were just changing info for around for no good reason (which happens far too often with wrestling articles. My apologies. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 01:02, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You recently changed the DEFAULTSORT argument for Eugene McCarthy to Eugene MacCarthy citing an improvement in sorting. Is there a discussion and resolution about this preference somewhere in a WikiProject that you could point me to? Also, it is highly desirable to add an edit summary for each change - I'd ask you to use it as much as possible. Thanks.--Appraiser (talk) 18:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto with your edit on Mike McGavick changing the format to Mike Macgavick. I'm a little confused on the logic of this. Sorting McName in with the MacNames will cause confusion in the categories as people are expecting alpha sorts in the list and putting a lengthy pile of McNames in front of the Mad* names messes up that expectation. See Category:Irish-American politicians for an example. --Bobblehead ^(rants) 18:36, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Surnames starting with "Mc" should be indexed as "Mac" to assist category sorting; this has been the case for a long time now. Surnames starting with O'M or O'H (for example) are indexed as Om and Oh. The latter reindexing (O's) has already been completed by other editors as far as I know, so I stick with the "Mc" names.Yellow-bellied sapsucker (talk) 18:24, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The example I looked at put "Mace" after "McCarthy". I can't think of any reason to do that. Has there been a discussion reaching a consensus on this?--Appraiser (talk) 19:11, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I just noticed you did the same thing on the George McGovern article. Like the person above I don't understand what the purpose is in doing this. Is there is a discussion somewhere where consensus has been reached to start doing this?--Jersey Devil (talk) 19:40, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what example you looked at (Mace after McC), but [1] is how it is supposed to look, as you can see there are a lot of name left to be done, but I'll hold off until this is resolved. Believe it or not I wasn't doing it b/c it's fun. Yellow-bellied sapsucker (talk) 19:20, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

From your example, it looks as if you'd like ALL "Mc" names to be at the top of a list of "M" names. I can understand that concept, but adding a single "a" ("Mac") will not accomplish that, as names like "Mace" (Nancy Mace in Category:American memoirists) will fall in the middle of a series of "Mc" names. An interested project needs to come to consensus about this (perhaps the good people at Wikipedia:WikiProject Scotland would have an interest).--Appraiser (talk) 19:52, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It also looks like a majority of the McNames are default sorted to Mc rather than Mac, or at least that is the case in the random assortment of Irish people and Scottish people categories that I took a look at. There are some categories with a hodge-podge, but most have Mc sorting after Mb. Having the O'Names default sorted by OName makes some sense to me as people generally do not associate ' with an alpha sort, so having them all appear at the top of the list of the O section might be confusing to some.--Bobblehead ^(rants) 21:43, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you should be changin these at all since they screw up sorting in category (McM does not alphabetically come before Mad, for example, but you are making it be sorted that way). You haven't cited what policy/guideline/consensus supports what you are doing. TJ Spyke 08:42, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted your deletion of the redirect to Londonderry (UK Parliament constituency) with the reason "inappropriate redirect" which is not a reason for speedy. It's in any case reasonable, for he seems to have won the 1951 by-election there, and it's mentioned in that article. I'd make a real article out of it, but I haven't any convenient reference sources for the subject. DGG ( talk ) 23:53, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
