Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 18:19, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates
Hi,

I'm new to wikipedia and i'm trying to write an entry for wiss, janney, elstner associates. i've taken several actions to add third-party references to the page and would like to know how the advertisement tag can be removed from the top of the page. Thanks for taking time to review the page. When possible, could you please review these references and let me know what can be done to have this tag removed?

Thanks,

 * Thanks for taking the time to respond back. Adding references is good, but I'd ask if possible that you use the citation templates. This means that when the entries appear in the reference list, they are automatically formatted for you. I've added a template in the references section to pick up all the in-line citations for you, but these still need formatting using citation templates. You can find examples on in-line citation templates at Citation templates. If you have any problems using them, feel free to ask for help


 * In terms of reliable sources, Wikipedia uses a guideline for quailty, which you can find at Reliable sources. It is important that any source you reference meets this criteria. We also have a reliable sources noticeboard, where you can ask for advice on the reliability of a source. In particular, awards won need to be referenced.


 * Finally in terms of tone, the article needs to have a neutral point of view. Please be careful to check that the article content only reflects what is described in the sources. If a source feels that a piece of work they did was particularly good, then that's fine to state.


 * Hope all this makes sense, but please ask if anything's unclear. Many thanks,  Gazi moff  12:44, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Error on ArbCom page
A link in the third paragraph on this page


 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Fringe_science

is too short and doesn't work. It should point to:


 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Fringe_science#Log_of_blocks.2C_bans.2C_and_restrictions

 * Thanks for that Fyslee. That's an issue stemming from the base template we use; the header was updated in the template but the link wasn't corrected as well. It's surprising no-one had spotted this before, given it's been that way since Feburary! Cheers, Daniel (talk) 01:13, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Glad to be of help. -- Fyslee (talk) 01:36, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
