Help please

MECU, would you mind stepping in on Talk:Preterism? We have a couple of editors defending their own egos instead of constructively contributing to the discussion of the article. They have been asked to stop there as well as on their Talk pages (Users Roderick E and Virgil Vaduva). Thanks -Charleca (talk) 11:58, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

• MECU, Can you delete my user page? Now, I don't need it. Thanks you very much! Nam Hy Hoàng Phong (talk) 03:52, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject College football December 2008 Newsletter

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue XIII - December 2008
Project news Two new college football featured article candidates have been proposed. Jackie Robinson and Bob Chappuis need comments, criticism and support to be named featured articles. One new college football good article has been proposed. 1996 Orange Bowl needs to be reviewed for Good Article quality. A series of discussions about changing the notability requirements under WP:ATHLETE is underway, and your help and comments are requested. Conference championship games are upon us. Don't forget to update 2008 SEC Championship Game, 2008 MAC Championship Game, and 2008 Big 12 Championship Game, as well as the main articles for each championship game. The bowl season is here! When your team accepts a bowl bid, consider updating the bowl game page with your team's participation. Heading out to a game? Be sure to carry a camera and get pictures of players, teams, stadiums, and all the action and pageantry of college football. An excellent guide to taking pictures for WP:CFB can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Images. Even if you don't think a photo can be immediately used for an article, try uploading it to Wikimedia Commons so future article authors can use it. The College Football Portal needs to be updated with featured articles and pictures. Do you have a great picture that illustrates the best of college football? Consider adding it to the featured image queue on the portal.	From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the latest issue of the College football WikiProject newsletter! I hope that you're enjoying regular updates about the goings on of college football on Wikipedia, but if not, feel free to add your name to the "no delivery" section on the newsletter signup page. I encourage everyone to make regular visits to the College Football Portal and perhaps make it your Wikipedia entry page instead of using the Main Page as your gateway. Nominations for selected articles and pictures are always welcome, and can serve as a great way to show off that new article you just shepherded to Good Article status or the great picture you took the last time you were at a game. Comments and suggestions on improving the newsletter are always welcome, and help me improve it on a monthly basis. Keep contributing and editing, and don't hesitate to contact me or post on the College Football Wikiproject talk page if you need help or just want someone to look over your article.
New high-rank articles Jackie Robinson - Promoted to Good Article on October 31.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Club Magazine Cover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Club Magazine Cover.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:14, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
