i seem to be unable to create a band page when there are a lot of band pages on wikipedia, i also know of a few pages which are relevant to nothing. why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by AndyJay1987 (talk • contribs)
 * There are a lot of band pages on Wikipedia, and while most of them are notable, it's inevitable that other articles exist that do not meet Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. They'll eventually be edited to fit criteria or deleted.  In layman's terms - other junk exists!   Ali  (t)(c) 02:15, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

New article
I have contributed one more new aricleMayuram Vedanayagam Pillai.. Pls. visit and give me ur comments.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meetnaseer (talk • contribs)
 * Looks good so far. However, for the references section, you might want to put in-line citations within the text - tags should contain the links that you got information from.  As I said, you can find out how to do so at WP:CITE.  Good luck!   Ali  (t)(c) 17:39, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

The reason I'm inviting you is that many of the articles in the backlog are biography articles, so this would be right up your alley. If you can spare a little time, it'd be greatly appreciated. RedRollerskate 13:16, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Rocket Dog Rescue
Hi Ali!! I was wondering: I made a article called "Rocket Dog Rescue" because I wanted to write up about it (It's an organization that takes in homeless dogs and tries to find homes for them) and there's a prod which says that it doesn't have any reliable references or sources. However, I made sure that all of the information I had was completely sourced... there is no talk page which describes what needs to be done. What should I change? thanks! spunkycopper 18:35, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The problem with Rocket Dog Rescue is that it needs information from other reliable sources rather than Rocket Dog Rescue itself. Information about sources can be found here.  Hope that helps!  Ali  (t)(c) 21:47, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

I'd just like to let you know that when you have concerncs about a username, it is common practice to notify the user of your concerns and try to work them, and if they refuse to change their name, then taking it to RFC/U. You can do this by placing or doing a personal note. Thanks! i said 03:01, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Request for help with "C.A." Alexander bio
Hello, your name was the one picked out of the list of Biography Project members, so here is my request for help.

First, it is not major, really.

Second, if you say, "No, sorry," no offense will be taken.

To help, please go to tke page for C. A. Alexander and read it, then please go to Talk:C. A. Alexander and read that.

As you will see after reading these pages, help is needed, as follows:

1) Renaming the article "Alexander (stage magic)" or some thing of that sort, because Claude Alexander Conlin's stage name was Alexander and his pen name was "C. Alexander" and no evidence has turned up that he used the name "C. A. Alexander."

2) Making a rediect from "Claude Alexander Conlin" to "Alexander (stage magic)" (or whatever).

3) Making a redirect from "C. Alexander" to "Alexander (stage magic)" (or whatever).

4) Making a redirect from "C. A. Alexander" to "Alexander (stage magic)" (or whatever).

5) Getting permission to use one of the many public domain posters of his face, in the same way that public domain posters for other famous stage magicians are being used at Wikipedia. One good poster can be found at the LOC shop URL that is referenced in the article itself.

6) Uploading said picture and coding it into the page.

7) Copyediting what has been written by me, please.

If you would be so kind as to help, you would have my gratitude. I am not a full-time or even part-time Wikipedian, just a person with an interest in that subject. Learning all the ins and ous of how to create, rename, and get image prmissions for Wikipdia is way beyond my ability or time-constaints.

Thanks vry much for considering this request, and if you choose not to handle it, please consider passing it along to another editor.

Cordially,

23:17, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I'll get right on that. However, I do suggest you create an account - that will allow you to do all these things yourself, and I can help you if there's anything that you are unsure of or don't know how to do.  Ali  (t) (c)  05:38, 24 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much for the help. I used to have an account but for the past year or more have edited anonymously, which is much more relaxing to me. I may re-use my account (it is still active) if my current anonymity becomes inconvenient. My relationship with Wikipedia is not static and has changed several times over the years. Again, thank you for the help. It was quite kind of you. 04:57, 25 August 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)
 * No problem! I also added the image you requested.  If you would like to continue contributing anonymously, I support your choice, but remember that a username can be just as anonymous as an IP address (if not more so), and I'm sure you know that there are a lot of other benefits that come with it.  Good luck!  Ali  (t) (c)  08:04, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, thank you! The image looks great! I consider this page greatly improved by that picture. If reactivating my user name is in my future, you can expect a less anonymous thank-you then as well. 03:43, 26 August 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Hi
Hi Ali You Left Me A Comment Thanks! But Im A BIG BIG BIG!!! Nicole Fan! And Her Album Is Talking So Long And She Has A Lot Of Fans Coming On Her Pagr Evreyday From All Over The World Wanting To No About Her Album Wanting To No Has Anything Changed? So I Thought If I Made This It Is Like Taking It A Step Further! Also Her Page Is Getting Long Enough Now So I Think Its A Good Idea Dont You?? Evrey Album Has One Also! Thanks For Understanding ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by TOOEDDD (talk • contribs) 19:22, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand, but it would be best if the name of the album was released before an article is created for it. I still strongly suggest that you add information about the album to Nicole Richie instead, until the name of the album is released.  I'm glad that you're adding information about her album to Wikipedia, but as it stands your article probably does not meet with Wikipedia's policies.  If you can change it so that it does, then feel free to remove the prod template that I placed.  See WP:MUSIC and WP:CRYSTAL if you want to know more.   Ali  (t) (c)  07:20, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Ali, I'll have a look when I get a chance. I have concerns about simply using tags when references are poor or aren't there as this is a BLP. Even if the material might not seem controversial, in the case of a BLP we should err on the side of caution. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 04:50, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Please help
I would really like to be adopted, I understand the premise behind Wikipedia and the cooperative format for content. I even kind of have an idea about the article format ...

Consideration for adoption
Hello Ali, Can you please consider me for adoption. I have submitted an autobiography as an article in response to several requests for my resume from various sectors of society here in the Philippines. While done in good faith, being a new editor and my lack of familiarity of the rules caused the nomination of the article Benito T. de Leon for deletion on issues of WP:Notability and WP:COI. Noting that the article is about myself, it would just perhaps be best for other editors to debate on it. May I solicit your advise how to proceed from here. Thanks very much for your assistance.-Sultan-Commander (talk) 07:57, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I could use a bunch of help.
I can't quite grasp how to "create" a page from scratch. I know the guys in Limp Bizkit and am trying to create a page for my band Snagglepuss. There is already a wiki for Snagglepuss the cartoon character. But I need refernces to point off of Limp Bizkit's page to our band's page, because their old guitarist Rob Waters, is our bass player now.

Can you adopt me?

Please help me in return for promotional help
Hi Ali,

I am an award winning copywriter - if you need any promotional help in return for your technical help, please help me

Please forgive me I am new at this. I have read "Wikipedia: Your first Article" and posted "Secure Video Hosting"

Am I being tagged because: 1) my formatting (my references were not in the right place) 2) the fact that I refer to a company 3) the topic is already covered

How can I correct this?

In need of mentorship
Hi,

I saw your name over at WP:ADOPT.

I need the advice of an experienced Wikipedian.

I'm currently coordinating development of Wikipedia's Outline of knowledge, which has grown to around 500 pages, and I am having trouble recruiting editors to help build and improve it. I need some mentorship here.

I also need advice on the guidelines I've been writing for the Outline of Knowledge at User:The Transhumanist/Outline of knowledge. Is it good enough? Did I miss anything important?

My latest effort to recruit help on the outlines is a proposal for a contest between all of the country WikiProjects on Wikipedia (about 200 of them). Each country has an outline devoted to it, and so I figured these fall within the scope of the corresponding WikiProjects. This will be a very big event, and I'm not sure I'm going about it in the best way.

So you see, I've taken on a lot, and I need as much advice as I can get.

I look forward to your reply on my talk page.
