Categories

[edit]

If you are adding someone's name to a category, and you want the names in that category to be in alphabetic order, by last name, you have to do it like this [[Category:Individual lawyers|Altenburg, John D.]]

I see you created the category "Individual lawyers". What does that mean? Lawyers who don't have any partners, or work for a law firm, a government, or some other organization? I question whether this is a useful category. It is too broad.

When you create a category you are supposed to put up a short sentence where you define who fits in it, and who doesn't. So, should lawyers be included in this list only if they never had a partner, or worked, as a lawyer, for a boss? Or can they get included if they are in private practice now?

This is a potential update nightmare and verification nightmare.

BTW, if you want your vote to count for Gerald Guy Brummel, I suggest you go back, and change don't delete to keep. Keep is the conventional way it is written. Counting on the admin to understand you meant keep could be a mistake. -- Geo Swan 16:27, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I encourage you to be more kind, thoughtful, and concise in your advice.

A welcome from Sango123

[edit]

Hello, T g7, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Haiti Outreach Pwoje Espwa, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Haiti Outreach Pwoje Espwa seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Haiti Outreach Pwoje Espwa, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

AfD nomination of Corporate lawyer

[edit]

An editor has nominated Corporate lawyer, 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").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Corporate lawyer and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

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) 17:14, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Searching

[edit]

Regarding [1], I get context when I log out and search. For example, the first search hit on tower says:

thumb|right|The Sears Tower, in Chicago, Illinois.

Are you saying you only get page names? PrimeHunter (talk) 23:34, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

When I close and restart Internet Explorer, I get no context. If I only log out without closing then I get context. I guess your edit is close enough to stay. PrimeHunter (talk) 05:52, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Comedy (theater), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Comedy. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Pro-Israel

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Pro-Israel, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Nudve (talk) 16:15, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Police misconduct

Hi, I thought you might like to check out the first segment on CBS 60 Minutes tonight, as it is about a major scandal involving the Chicago PD's "Special Operations Section." (A shame your Wiki email setting isn't enabled... )

The article Michael Holick has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag.

A tag has been placed on Michael Holick requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

A tag has been placed on Cyril Ferguson 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 band or musician, 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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag.

Request

[edit]

I notice that you've been editing a bunch of related articles, so would you be willing to lend a hand with a little project? Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine is trying to get at least one ref into every medicine-related article. The list is getting shorter, but we've still got a bit more than 100 to go, and the Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced articles/Backlog drives/November 2024 ends in just less than a week. If you could add a source to even one or two of them, it would really help us out. Here's how to help:

  1. Pick an article from the list. Most of them are organizations, people, or other subjects that do not require any specialized medical knowledge.
  2. Find at least one reliable source and add it to the article.
  3. Remove or update any maintenance tags at the top of the article.
