AfD nomination of Westfield North Rocks

[edit]

An editor has nominated Westfield North Rocks, 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/Westfield North Rocks 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. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

Template:Help contents back

[edit]

I've reverted this template back to how it was in November. The positioning in the top right was ok for the monobook skin, but messes up other skins such as classic, as it appears over the top of other links. – Tivedshambo (talk) 07:56, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Do you have a rational for undoing my revisions? Jeepday 14:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delnav

[edit]

Are you aware that {{deletiondebates}} already fulfills that function? >Radiant< 08:12, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes but this is more comprehensive. -Gareth Aus 08:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As a matter of fact we're trying to clarify the deletion system by merging and combingin the relevant instructions, thus reducing the overall verbiage. See Wikipedia:Deletion policy/Draft for details. >Radiant< 08:59, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah excellent. -Gareth Aus 09:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Help desk header redesign

[edit]

You probably didn't mean it to happen, but your redesign of the help desk header caused the section edit links on the help desk to point to the wrong questions (probably because your edit introduced two sections in the header itself somehow). I've reverted your change, so the help desk can continue to function without any issues. If you want to re-establish your changes, please use a way that does not break the section editing of the help desk and test it before implementation. - Mgm|(talk) 08:26, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jimbo is coming to Sydney

[edit]

Sorry to spam you if you aren't interested. See Wikipedia:Meetup/Sydney#April 25th for more info if you are interested. - Ta bu shi da yu 08:24, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

help box

[edit]

Howdy. The {{helpbox}} has a weird layout problem that I cannot diagnose. The first and last entry in each "list#" section are followed/preceded (respectively) by too much leading. Screenshot example from {{Guideline list}} showing too much space below "Autobiography" and above "User page". It is the same in firefox/opera. --Quiddity 18:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CityRail Platforms/Service section

[edit]

Can you please leave the colours the way they are? They've been left that way for ages and no one has had a problem with them just on the platform markings. I'm happy to change the style elsewhere, but simply for those sections the coloured text is better. JRG 04:26, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Phh:Talk page

[edit]

A template you created, Template:Phh:Talk page, has been marked for deletion as a deprecated and orphaned template. If, after 14 days, there has been no objection, the template will be deleted. If you wish to object to its deletion, please list your objection here and feel free to remove the {{deprecated}} tag from the template. If you feel the deletion is appropriate, no further action is necessary. Thanks for your attention. Bryan Derksen (talk) 21:17, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cityrail trains

[edit]

With locomotives the usual naming convention seems to be {original operator} {class}. Dunno how named trains fit into that, and things get tricky as different trains were ordered and delivered under different operators. You can leave what you have done so far, but if you want to do the same thing elsewhere then we should try to dig up some other opinions on what way to go. I think the Perth and Brisbane networks use the same {current operator} {class} naming format you have though. Wongm (talk) 07:37, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia talk:Article series#Merge proposals

[edit]

Could you take a look at Wikipedia talk:Article series#Merge proposals? Essentially, I think that "article series" is somewhat different entity than WP:Summary style article groups. --Kubanczyk (talk) 11:43, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:A_set_artists_impression_2.jpg

[edit]
Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:A_set_artists_impression_2.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:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 08:59, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Help

[edit]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but I'm asking for someone to come in an mediate an "arguement" between another member and I. It's in the Victoria's Secret page. He has used original research against me in the past and now he is allowing himself to do it. I've provided a source for what I was trying to edit and he deletes it and says not enough proof but there is no proof in some of his edits in the past. This edit needs to be fixed because in this intense we may not find out until next year and again that's original research if a certain girl is not in the line up. http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Victoria%27s_Secret#Karolina_Kurkova_Contact

if this is the wrong place again I'm sorry...just looking for help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BahianChic (talkcontribs) 17:20, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

East Hills line

[edit]

Merging these articles has been discussed in the past- and consensus seems to be opposed. Perhaps you should bring this up on the talk page first? Regards, MrHarper (talk) 23:08, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted your redirect, because I think it's worth determining that there is a consensus for your action. That page seemed fairly active, and it was obvious both on that page and at Wikipedia:Footnotes that there were two pages with somewhat overlapping information - yet no one had done anything. Perhaps you could post a note on both talk/discussion pages saying that you think a redirect is appropriate, and see if others support or object? (And if you do re-create the redirect, please remove the link, on the Wikipedia:Footnotes page, that goes to Help:Footnotes.) -- John Broughton (♫♫) 15:39, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto for Help:Editing --> Wikipedia:How to edit a page. Was there a discussion about this? What's the use of having a Help namespace if we're just going to redirect everything to Project space? I know we started a discussion about this at Wikipedia talk:Help Project#In which namespace should a page be placed, namely the Help: and the Wikipedia: namespaces but as far as I know we haven't really reached a conclusive consensus on what to do with duplicate information in the two namespaces. Perhaps you could comment at that discussion about what you think is best. -- œ 00:37, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was just following the suggestions at Wikipedia:Help_Project#Articles_needing_attention which states "...some merging to remove duplication possible". Other pages have been merged as well. This was just some simple merging and was not meant to indicate anything about how or where the content should ultimately be presented. As far as namespaces go, I don't have any strong opinions at this time. I chose to merge to the WP namespace page because I thought it was an easier merge and Wikipedia:How to edit a page seemed like the higher profile page. As it turns out, the examples have already been moved to Help:Wiki markup. Gareth Aus (talk) 04:14, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mentorship

[edit]

The Revision History of Wikipedia:Mentorship records your participation the article's development; and for this reason, I am reaching out to you.

Please consider reviewing my edit at Wikipedia:Mentorship#Unintended consequences. In the search for a mentor deemed acceptable by ArbCom, I plan to cite this as a useful context for discussing what I have in mind. --Tenmei (talk) 21:22, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

[edit]

Hi. I have restored the contents of Wikipedia:Your first article and Wikipedia:Article creation pending some kind of consensus for redirection. I disagree with both. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:25, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
