Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to University of East London School of Law has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

East London
I disagree. Firstly, the vast majority of your sources are from the university itself, which smells of promotion. Leave the notable alumni descriptions and list of publications for the university website. This is an encyclopedia.--TM 15:28, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Why did you remove the bit about London City Airport. The UEL DOCKLANDS campus overlooks London City Airport. Go look at Google maps!. I just wish people who have no connection to the University write, decide they know better! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.43.116 (talk) 15:33, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Rising East
going to do a bit of work on Rising East - article banner calls for links for this orphan, finding some now. Also doing a bit of research for improvement to the article. Any one want to help? Darigan (talk) 12:05, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Reply to question on Talk:Ryan kennedy
Hi Darigan, to nominate an attack page for speedy deletion, you add db-attack. I gather the 'db' stands for 'delete because'. There are similar templates for other situations, for example db-hoax and db-advert. Hope this helps. PhilKnight (talk) 15:28, 26 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Also you can turn on 'friendly' and twinkle to automate deletion tasks. On the left side of the page click special pages --> My preferences --> Gadgets --> select the "twinkle" gadget.  This will give you a tagger button on the top right of your browser, right next to the watch tab.  Bonewah (talk) 15:32, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Crystal
There were multiple successive vandalism edits there the other day. The undo button only catches the last edit, so please remember to check that the version reverted to is a good one. Keep up the good work. - 2/0 (cont.) 17:26, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Rollback Vandal
Hi, whenever I check recent edits with the "recent changes" tab on the left, i get the option to [rollback(VANDAL)]- i only noticed this over the last couple of days. Have i always had this option, or have i crossed some sort of positive-edit threshold that now allows me the authority to use [rollback (VANDAL)]? All responses welcome, thanks Darigan (talk) 13:03, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
 * rollback (VANDAL) is an option of Twinkle. You must have enabled Twinkle on the Gadgets tab of your preferences.  You can read Twinkle/doc for information on how to use this and other features.  Please let me know if there are any more questions.  Thanks!  --Mysdaao talk 13:21, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Rollback
helpme Hi, i have a quick question for anybody willing to offer an answer. I have the "rollback" option when i am working on Wikipedia with "Firefox", but i do not have the rollback option when i work through "Internet Explorer" - why is this? Thanks in advance. Best, Darigan (talk) 17:17, 5 November 2009 (UTC)


 * It seems you do not have the rollback right, so the option you mention must be the Twinkle feature, rather than true rollback. Twinkle is currently incompatible with IE.  AJ  Cham  17:35, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of San Miguel Premium Internacional
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:47, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment on my user talk page
I haven't yet decided how to handle it. My intent of it was to experiment with placing images over there. Once I put that flag up, I decided to keep it. That said, you have a point that it does block some of the links. I'll see what I can do.

BTW, how did you get my name? Near as I can tell I haven't interacted with you. I don't particularly mind, I'm just curious. — BQZip01 — talk 22:51, 19 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi, the message did seem to come out of the blue didn't it.


 * I was checking the 'Recent Changes', partly out of curiosity and partly to check for vandalism, and there was something on a page about you and another user. Can't remember what page exactly, but i think it was an admin noticeboard. I clicked through to find more about it, and thats when i saw your user page


 * I don't particularly mind where the flag does or doesn't go, but i thought i should 'flag'-up the fact that it obscured some of the links. Best, Darigan (talk) 09:33, 20 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah. I'll deal with it later and see what I can do. Thanks. — BQZip01 —  talk 16:18, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

helpme I just created a page at Rita sharma, but the page listed her surname as beginning with a lower-case 's' - my fault, but can anyone help fix it or tell me how to. Thanks, Darigan (talk) 15:13, 24 November 2009 (UTC)


 * There's a "move" tab at the top of the page; you can do it yourself. On a related note, I'm not sure the subject meets our notability guidelines; don't be surprised if someone nominates it for deletion. (I'll step aside since I'm here to answer your technical question.) Frank  |  talk  15:19, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Andreas Papanastasiou
Hello Darigan. Thank you for the message about this article. The current concensus on notability for athletes is represented at WP:ATHLETE and indicates that youth internationals (except those competing in the Olympics) are not sufficiently notable to be able to skip the general notability guideline. In my experience, it is rare to find sufficient coverage in reliable sources for youth internationals except when the person is some type of prodigy (e.g., Freddy Adu when he was a youth international). However, I don't read Greek particularly well, so if you think you can find a good amount of coverage of Papaastasiou in the Cypriot media (or elsewhere), please add it to the article and I will be happy to remove the PROD. Best regards. Jogurney (talk) 15:16, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. If Papanastasiou makes an appearance for a Cypriot first division club or for the senior international side, I'll be happy to re-create the article. Best regards. Jogurney (talk) 15:27, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Re South East Radio
Hello Darigan, and thank you for the message you've posted to my talk page. I honestly don't know anything about the topic itself, but I have just added the article to my watchlist, and promise to return over the next few days to see if I'm able to help fill your request. Have yourself a great day, and happy editing :) -- WikHead (talk) 10:23, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Quality assessment
Hi all, i can't find out how to ask to have:

A. - An article that has not been quality-assessed, be quality-assessed.

B. - An article that had been quality-assessed, but then worked on quite a bit, be re-quality-assessed.

I'd appreciate any suggestions on the matter. Thanks in advance. Best, Darigan (talk) 13:48, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The guidelines are at WikiProject_Council/Guide/WikiProject and WikiProject Council/Assessment FAQ. In general, anyone can assess or re-assess an article.  You can either do it yourself, or ask members of the appropriate WikiProject to change an article assessment.  Each WikiProject may have specific guidelines on how an article should be assessed, or how to request an assessment, so it is suggested you look on the WikiProject's page first.  Please let me know if there are any more questions.  Thanks!  --Mysdaao talk 14:04, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

South East Radio
I guess my main suggestion would be that we don't normally want radio station articles to contain long bulleted lists of radio personalities who aren't themselves notable and don't have any additional context — what's preferred is prose that actually describes a station's programming style. As a reader living in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the staff list of a radio station in Ireland doesn't give me any valuable information about the station — since I don't already know who these people are, and the article doesn't contain any sourced information about them, just being given their names isn't useful to me.

Look, for example, at how CFNY-FM handles its on-air personalities — while there are still some sourcing problems with it, and people still tend to add inappropriate advert-speak, it actually tries to tell me something meaningful and detailed about the station and its programming. It doesn't just give me a meaningless list of names — it actually tries to tell me a bit about who these people are and what their shows sound like.

If it helps, look at it this way: this is a global encyclopedia. So your target audience for the article isn't just someone who lives in Wexford and already listens to the station a couple of times a week anyway — it's also people who live in Singapore or Toronto or Mombasa, and who don't have a clue in hell why we're supposed to care that people named Tony Kehoe and Seamus Coleman and Janice Coleman work there. Don't just list their names: tell us something about these people and their presenting styles. Don't just list the programs: tell us something about them. Tell us about their annual marshmallow-eating contest or their daily 5 p.m. Nick Drake song or the fact that Bono voiced a station identification for them last year, or whatever else they do that's unique or interesting or distinctive.

It's easy sometimes, if you're writing about a topic that you're personally familiar with, to forget that not everybody has the same background knowledge. Sometimes we need to step back for a minute, pretend to forget some of what we know and ask ourselves, "If I really didn't already know anything about the topic, would this version of the article actually help me feel like I was learning something useful and important about it?"

Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 00:30, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Linking to Search Results on Reference Desk
Hello Darigan, thanks for your contributions on the Reference Desk. I noticed that you recently answered by linking to google search results. In general, search queries are external links to be avoided - because the results are not deterministic, and change from minute to minute. Furthermore, on the Reference Desk in particular, we try to do better than Google or Bing - we are humans and have brains and we know of references. If our responses are simply "type the question into Google and post the link" - we aren't serving any useful function. Please consider whether your responses are a "value-add" to the search query: for example, you might perform the query and use your own expertise in the subject-matter to select the best response - and directly link to a useful resource. This strategy keeps our service at the reference desk at a higher quality than any automated search-engine algorithm can ever be. Nimur (talk) 16:40, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
Darigan, thanks for helping out at Requests for feedback. Good catch on the improper refs, I missed that on the first pass. We have more requests for feedback than volunteers to respond, I hope you will come back and volunteer on occasion. I can't keep up with all the requests, but when I saw you helping out, the least I could do is look at yours, which was a nice start, only a very few minor items, as noted.-- SPhilbrick  T  14:50, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

London Wikimedia Fundraiser
Good evening! This is a friendly message from Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry, inviting you to the London Wikimedia Fundraising party on 19th December 2010, in approximately one week. This party is being held at an artistic London venue with room for approximately 300 people, and is being funded by Ed Saperia, a non-Wikipedian who has a reputation for holding exclusive events all over London. This year, he wants to help Wikipedia, and is subsidising a charity event for us. We're keen to get as many Wikimedians coming as possible, and we already have approximately 200 guests, including members of the press, and some mystery guests! More details can be found at http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/London - expect an Eigenharp, a mulled wine hot tub, a free hog roast, a haybale amphitheatre and more. If you're interested in coming - and we'd love to have you - please go to the ten.wikipedia page and follow the link to the Facebook event. Signing up on Facebook will add you to the party guestlist. Entry fee is a heavily subsidised £5 and entry is restricted to over 18s. It promises to be a 10th birthday party to remember! If you have any questions, please email me at chasemewiki at gmail.com.

Hope we'll see you there, (and apologies for the talk page spam) - Chase me ladies, I&#39;m the Cavalry (talk) 22:15, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Finers Stephens Innocent
Hi Darigan, I spotted your draft and your note to Spike Wilbury. SW doesn't appear to be active at the moment, but I'd be happy to help review it to make sure it is suitable before moving it to mainspace. Having a look, my main worry at the moment would be original research as it doesn't have any sources. I also noticed that it has been edited by an IP from FSI and along with your other edits, (such as UEL law dept) leads me to suspect you may have a conflict of interest. This shouldn't be an impedement to creating a neutral article, but you need to be extra careful to ensure that everything comes from sources and that the article is neutrally written. Googling "Finers Stephens Innocent" site:thelawyer.com" may help you find sources, but try to make sure they are about the firm, rather than just reporting on cases they've been involved in unless they are clearly important, as demonstrated by multiple references. (If you are working as an intern or something at FSI, can you let your colleagues know that information must be referenced, edits like this to Mark Stephens' biography can't stay per the BLP policy. I should also point out that you don't need to either confirm or deny that you have a COI.) Drop me a note if you want any more advice, hopefully we can get a good article written about FSI. SmartSE (talk) 16:15, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi SmartSE, I can confirm that I am not an intern at FSI, although, given the history of the article, I understand your concerns. I can also state that there is no COI, although, you can obviously look at my previous edits if you have any concerns. Having looked at the article, the edit by "109.158.137.69" listed as a "typo fix" was me (Didn't realise I wasn't signed in), but the other IP edits were not me (to be quite frank, I'm annoyed that IPs have edited my user-space draft without notifying me, or without providing edit summaries. In fact, looking at the edit histories, they appear to have added the sort of stuff that I assume the article was initially db-d for) - Having had my mini-rant, I am happy that you have taken the time to look at the draft, and I believe that I share many of your concerns. I do intend to add more third-party references before I consider moving it to main-space. If you haven't already, could I invite you to add the page to your watch-list? Thanks for having a look, I noticed that you also made a few edits to the Mark Stephens article, by-the-by, I've tried reverting the 80. IP edits to my article draft space, but I cannot at the moment (seemingly because I edited from my signed-out 109. IP address since those edits, is there some way I can do this automatically? (Obv. I can do it manually, but would like to know if an auto option is available)

Darigan (talk) 21:10, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for replying. It just seemed a bit strange to me that an IP noticed your draft so quickly after you started it and I agree that those edits aren't suitable for including, without strong references. I've already added it to my watchlist so will keep an eye on it. If you want to undo the edits the IP made, the easiest thing is to load the version before their edits (this one), click edit and then save it. WP:TWINKLE is also useful for things like this, check out the installation part of the page for how to start using it. Happy holidays! SmartSE (talk) 11:26, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi SmartSE - Cheers, I loaded up the old version and saved it (I was about to go through it and try to do it manually). I can't account for why the IP picked up on the draft so quickly - Looking at the IP's history, the last edits s/he made (before the edits to the user-space draft I created) were in May. Anyways, I've had a look at a few law firm articles, and I think I'm ready to start expanding the FSI one further, I'll give you a nod when I think its ready to go to mainspace. Cheers SmartSE, Darigan (talk) 13:34, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi Darigan, Apologies for the late response, just moved over to Colorado, but in answer to your attribution question regarding Bexleyheath station, I would prefer it if you credit my real name: Sunil Prasannan.
