Article of the month – 2010 Auto Club 500, a Good Article
The 2010 Auto Club 500 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held on February 21, 2010 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. Contested over 250 laps, it was the second race of the 2010 Sprint Cup Series season. The race was won by Jimmie Johnson for the Hendrick Motorsports team. Kevin Harvick finished second, and Jeff Burton, who started fourteenth, clinched third. Pole position driver Jamie McMurray maintained his lead into the first corner, but Juan Pablo Montoya, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Afterward, Johnson became the leader, and would eventually lead to the race high of 101 laps. During the final pit stops, Johnson was on pit lane as the caution flag came out.

I disagree with your change removing the {{multiple issues}} template on the We Are Young page. I stated my case on the article's Talk page. Can you please elaborate there on your reasons for removing the template -- "nonsense" doesn't at all explain your feelings as to why each element of the template is non-applicable. In the meantime, I have reverted your change. I look forward to discussing the matter with you further.

Gay Wikipedians
So, I'm writing up a starting argument for the inclusion of this category at the deletion review, but I'm going to need as much community support as I can get. (I.E. I'm probably going to be copying-and-pasting a message explaining the thing to as many LGBT users as I can. If you wanna help me do that let me know. Here's the link to the current deletion review.
Thanks! Ncboy2010 (talk) 12:22, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
Talk page reply
Yeah, I didn't know about the canvassing (although in hindsight, it makes sense). I would have thought there were other wikiprojects (related to LGBT topics) but it seems to me that they've done the same thing that was done with categories: lumped them all into a single "LGBT" catch-all.

Article of the month – 2010 Sylvania 300
The 2010 Sylvania 300 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held on September 19, 2010, at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, New Hampshire. The 300 lap race was the twenty-seventh in the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, as well as the first race in the ten-race Chase for the Sprint Cup, which ends the season. Clint Bowyer, of the Richard Childress Racing team, won the race, with Denny Hamlin finishing second, and Jamie McMurray third. Pole position driver Brad Keselowski maintained his lead in the first lap, but in the second lap Tony Stewart pulled ahead. Chase for the Sprint Cup participants Jimmie Johnson, Kurt Busch, and Hamlin were in the top ten for most of the race, but in the closing laps all of them suffered spins or other problems. Hamlin was the only one to recover and finish in the top five. With two laps remaining, Tony Stewart was leading the race when he ran out of fuel, giving the lead to Bowyer, who also led the most laps in the race with 176. There were eight cautions and twenty-three lead changes among eight different drivers during the race. The race was Clint Bowyer's first win in the 2010 season, and the third of his career. The result advanced Bowyer to second in the Drivers' Championship, thirty-five points behind Hamlin and ten ahead of Kevin Harvick, but because of a penalty three days after the race, he fell to twelfth in the standings. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, thirty-two points ahead of Toyota and seventy-four ahead of Ford, with nine races remaining in the season. A total of 95,000 people attended the race, while 3.68 million watched it on television.

You need to go to taylorswift.com
http://weallliveinapokemonworld.webs.com/Forwikipedia.jpg they still advertise We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together as a "brand new single" and if you go here http://taylorswift.com/forum it says that Begin Again is the new song not single. That over rules wikipedia. The song has not been released to radio and Tay has not made any announcement about it http://taylorswift.com/news there is a music video but you want to be blind because you are contradicted. If it was a single Tay would've said something by now and she has not there has been no confirmation by her so it isn't true that is for sure it is interesting that taylorswift.com contradicts wikipedia.
- They're just forums kid, you're hopeless. NYSMtalk page 06:49, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
You're hopeless you do not look at the ads on taylorswift.com and it is you who are adding incorrect information and should be barred from editing on the page you bastard!
I am reporting you both for placing false information on Wikipedia.
184.58.18.72
Nowyouseeme, do you know how to get this kid banned? He's clearly not going to give up anytime soon regardless of how clear it is that he's wrong. Calling you a bastard and continuously harassing you (and me) on talk pages only adds to the mess. Afireinside27 (talk) 17:35, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
He has no grounds to ban me he should be banned first, he has resorted to insults such as "Bud, I'm sorry but at this point your comments are just laughable and it's clear to me that you might be a few bricks shy of a full load. You really aren't making any type of sense, and no point you have made has been proven." and "They're just forums kid, you're hopeless." when I have proven my point and neither of you will look at the advertisements on taylorswift.com and I have proven my point given 9 sources to 4 that have misinformation and neither of you will listen. So if anyone is being harassed it's me and you guys are thinking your above me and better then me when I have given my evidence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.58.18.72 (talk) 18:03, 2 October 2012 (UTC) You need to stop harassing my son, just cause he is placing correct information on the page does not give you the right to sit there and threaten him. He is posting correct information you changing it is not. Now back off my son and allow him to post correct information or I will have write to Wikipedia. You have no right pushing false information on people, harassing, threatening, or anything just cause you resort to name calling cause he proved you wrong and you didn't like it so you continue to contradict him and threaten him is not your place. You need to grow up and should not be on this site because you have no manners and should not be around people. You ever call my child another name again and revert his edit for putting correct information on http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Begin_Again_%28Taylor_Swift_song%29 this page again and call him a vandal when you are posting incorrect information and I will write to Wikipedia myself and personal see that you get reprimanded for your behavior. He's only a 15 year old boy and does not need some jerk treating him as if he is stupid, he gets that in school enough.
- Kid, attempting to impersonate an adult and threatening to get me reprimanded is not going to help you. If you really are treated badly in school then I am sincerely sorry you have to deal with that. NYSMtalk page 16:01, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
Excuse me? This is his mother how dare you sit there and say such things just cause you do not like me telling you you are wrong for sitting here and bullying a child cause you didn't like that he proved you wrong so you and another person had to sit there and resort to insults cause you didn't like he proved you wrong and now because you had the nerve to sit here and insult me and say that my child is impersonating me. You crossed the wrong mother. Also our personal IP address being posted on this site is illegal and I'd appreciate it if Wikipedia did not do that.

Article of the month – Tim Richmond - a Good Article
Tim Richmond (June 7, 1955 – August 13, 1989) was an American race car driver from Ashland, Ohio. He competed in IndyCar racing before transferring to NASCAR's Winston Cup Series (now Sprint Cup Series). Richmond was one of the first drivers to change from open wheel racing to NASCAR stock cars full-time, which has since become an industry trend. He won the 1980 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year award and had 13 victories during eight NASCAR seasons. Richmond achieved his top NASCAR season in 1986 when he finished third in points. He won seven races that season, more than any other driver on the tour. When he missed the season-opening Daytona 500 in February 1987, media reported that he had pneumonia. The infection most likely resulted from his compromised immune system, which was weakened by AIDS. The disease drastically shortened his life. Despite the state of his health, Richmond competed in eight races in 1987, winning two events and one pole position before his final race in August of that year. He attempted a comeback in 1988 before NASCAR banned him for testing positive for a banned substance; after NASCAR insisted on access to his entire medical record before reinstating him, Richmond withdrew from racing. NASCAR later stated their original test was inaccurate. Richmond grew up in a wealthy family and lived a freewheeling lifestyle, earning him the nickname "Hollywood". In describing Richmond's influence in racing, Charlotte Motor Speedway president Humpy Wheeler said: "We've never had a race driver like Tim in stock car racing. He was almost a James Dean-like character." When Richmond was cast for a bit part in the 1983 movie Stroker Ace, "He fell right in with the group working on the film," said director Hal Needham. Cole Trickle, the main character in the movie Days of Thunder, played by Tom Cruise, was loosely based on Richmond and his interaction with Harry Hyde and Rick Hendrick.

Hand-coding
Hey all :).
I'm dropping you a note because you've been involved in dealing with feedback from the Article Feedback Tool. To get a better handle on the overall quality of comments now that the tool has become a more established part of the reader experience, we're undertaking a round of hand coding - basically, taking a sample of feedback and marking each piece as inappropriate, helpful, so on - and would like anyone interested in improving the tool to participate :).
You can code as many or as few pieces of feedback as you want: this page should explain how to use the system, and there is a demo here. Once you're comfortable with the task, just drop me an email at okeyeswikimedia.org and I'll set you up with an account :).
If you'd like to chat with us about the research, or want live tutoring on the software, there will be an office hours session on Monday 17 December at 23:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office connect. Hope to see some of you there! Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:17, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
Be civil
Please note that in wiki you are required to provide reference when making edits, unreferenced edits may be challenged and removed as is the standard guidelines for wiki. Since you make edits making reference to charts which is normally not published until later in the week, you should give reference when changing it. This is the second time you have been making less than friendly comments when making edits, violating the guidelines per WP:CIVIL. I hope not to see any comments like these.
