Hi :) Tip: Wikipedia standard practice is to have the article titles with as much lowercase as possible - so we prefer Happy number over Happy Number. You don't need to use the plural form for articles too since you can just use Unhappy numbers which will look like Unhappy numbers. Thanks Dysprosia 04:56, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hi, Pichu. Welcome to Wikipedia.

I noticed you added links to subroutine and variable in the Perl page; thanks for improving it. A tip for next time, though: usually only one link is needed per section for each topic (usually the first time a term comes up). I find that when there are too many links in a paragraph, it is more difficult to read. With this in mind, I removed all of the links to "subroutine" except the first one.

I hope to see some more good edits from you in the future. Keep up the good work. &mdash;Bkell 20:36, 9 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of StackMat timer


A tag has been placed on StackMat timer, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Dorsetonian (talk) 19:43, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
