User categorization
Greetings! Your user page hasn't been vandalized :-) --it was updated to use the new User Categorization scheme. I have categorized your User Page as a Wikipedian in North Dakota (Category:Wikipedians in North Dakota) since your name was listed on the Wikipedia:Wikipedians/North Dakota page.  The Wikipedia:Wikipedians/North Dakota page is scheduled for deletion.  Thanks!   Roby Wayne  Talk &bull;  Hist 01:51, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Wikiproject North Dakota
Hi! you might be interested in helping Wikiproject North Dakota off the drawing board. --AlexWCovington  (talk) 22:33, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * WikiProject North Dakota is official! Sort of.  Lot of cleanup needed on the project page and plenty of work to do making a decent to-do list, etc. etc., but it all starts somewhere.  Thanks for all your help! --AlexWCovington  (talk) 05:28, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Adolfo Farsari
Hi David, Would you mind reading this article on Adolfo Farsari and suggesting on the featured article candidate page whether you think its worthy of featured article status or not? No worries if not, but I'd like your sage commentary. Thanks. Pinkville 23:53, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

MatthewUND's RfA
I just self-nominated myself for administrator's status on Wikipedia. As an active member of WikiProject North Dakota, I feel that having admin status would allow me the ability to be more useful to the project and to curtail vandalism and other problems. An admin is able to protect pages that are being bombarded with vandalism and to more quickly revert pages that have been vandalized. I've always hoped that we could get an admin to join the WikiProject so we would have someone to turn to in times of need. Since we still don't have an active admin within the project's membership, I decided to nominate myself. I really hope you will visit my request for adminship and support me. Thanks! --Matth e w UND (talk) 10:47, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Saesee Tiin
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Saesee Tiin, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello DavidA! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 7 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:
