GT Ferrari
[edit]Just add it to the scuderia ferrari page under a new section. --Narson ~ Talk • 11:34, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- The information about Ferrari's GT history. --Narson ~ Talk • 19:48, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- So write it. It is an encyclopedia anyone can edit :) If you need help assembling sources et al, if you use the article talk page, you'll find people are pretty helpful. Or if you need wider help, there is Wikipedia:WikiProject Motorsport --Narson ~ Talk • 19:54, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- Well, if you don't want to write it, and no-one writes it, then we have no need to disambiguate betwee the two. Your best bet is to write the info yourself. --Narson ~ Talk • 20:00, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- I would guess because we don't say what we don't have, only what we do. --Narson ~ Talk • 20:36, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
No worries
[edit]The pleasure was mine. I won't be able to help on the article because I am ignorant of matters outside of F1 (in motor racing, that is). I hope I have opened a can of worms and that you decide to continue editing Wikipedia; a warning that it is highly addictive is in order but you should know that it is often very rewarding. You'll be pleased to know that DH is a do-er - if he says that something will get done it most likely will get done. Apterygial 09:31, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Re: Thank you.
[edit]Glad I could help. What I suggest we do now is sit back and wait for a few days, then if no-one has voiced any serious objections, one of us can make the necessary changes. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 10:32, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
My article about airline pilots
[edit]I'm an airline pilot in the USA. Are you? You might want to take a look at this Problems facing airline pilots article I put up which I've been editing intensely yet still can't get away from POV and OR labels. In fact, I've really given up on defending that article. I even recommended it for deletion myself just to rid myself of the critics. If you have time, and know your way around airline pilot labor relations 101, leave me a message on my talk page, or even feel free to edit this User:XB70Valyrie/Piloting in the United States page, it's a virtual copy of the one about to be deleted. I'd like to get this article to not a POV perspective, but a full account of the challenges we face today, and publish it. I see you are conservative. I think I need your editing in this article draft, since I'm not. Again, respond to my talk page if you'd like to give me some input.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 07:48, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
[edit]Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
