Short articles
The series of short articles that you have been creating about various ancient human remains are really too short to be considered up to Wikipedia's standards. Consider either expanding the articles or merging their content into relevant longer articles (such as Bog body, Mummy, etc). WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:33, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Simply copy the content of the short page you created onto the appropriate longer page, and then replace the contents of your page with a redirect to the longer page (e.g. #REDIRECT Bog body ). WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:18, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Crocus
Hi. I'm not sure what you were trying to do on Crocus with the images, but it didn't work. I changed it back to the previous version. Please let me know if I can help. Rivertorch (talk) 04:32, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

FYI
Hi,

for your information only: You use a wrong language in the German-speaking Wikipedia. Your online translator put there please in "German" and not in "Dutch"!

Speedy Deletion Nomination for Boy Scout Troop 673
The article Boy Scout Troop 673 has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:28, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Welcome
Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! NotedGrant  Talk  16:02, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rhinelander School District
A tag has been placed on Rhinelander School District requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. 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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

Adoption
Greetings , I see you're up for adoption, and I'm in the market. If ever you need advice or answers, just ask me -- any question, any time. I'd like to help however I can. Happy editing - Draeco (talk) 15:28, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * You can create a custom signature by clicking the "my preferences" tab in the top right, and placing the code for your custom sig in the "signature" box. For more complicated sigs, you can create a template per these instructions. Exactly what colors, etc you use is up to you. If you see something you like, I suggest you ask the person directly. - Draeco (talk) 14:46, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * If you're talking about the right-sided sidebars in articles, those are most likely infoboxes; Help:Infobox has a good intro to understanding and using them. If you're talking about sidebars on user pages, meh, I dunno - Draeco (talk) 21:20, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Userpage info
Hi 水の男の子. I noticed that you included a lot of private information about yourself on your userpage. While most of it is fine, some of the items like birthdate, birthplace and age are definitely discouraged -- especially for those who are still of minor age. Please seeOn privacy, confidentiality and discretion. Wikipedia is an open forum. For your own safety, any specific information about your identity should avoided. I suggest that you remove these items from your page. If you would like, I can also erase the information from the page history. Cheers. — Cactus Writer |   needles  06:42, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Your signature markup
I think your signature markup needs another at the end. It seems my comment here caught your font. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:03, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, please fix this. Dcoetzee 23:02, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

September 2010
Welcome to Wikipedia! Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent uploads, such as the file you uploaded at File:Untitled-1.gif, did not appear to be constructive and has been or soon will be deleted. Please read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Acather96 (talk) 16:13, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Userpage images
Done. For what it's worth, I think the real problem was using the div tags to anchor it; what that ended up doing, at least when I looked at your page, was to anchor the images in place, so that they stayed in the same place on the screen even when I tried to scroll down the page. There are other ways to include the images on your userpage if you wish, though, so don't think that it means you can't do so — just that the div tags aren't the best way to get it done.

Username Parasect
It's OK with me - go to Changing username/Usurpations and follow the instructions there, except don't bother notifying the current holder of the username, who is a banned sockpuppeteer and whose talk page access is blocked anyway. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:24, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

ANI notice
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. ~  Nerdy Science  Dude  23:44, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Just a note to say
Whatever happened on Wikipedia today or yesterday, is not the end of your editing on Wikipedia, if that is important to you.

In more general terms, Wikipedia cannot provide personal assistance to someone in your situation. Please call the number listed under your country's name on the following page: http://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/

 * Please call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) - and don't do it. Please. I lost a couple friends that way, and wish I could have been there for them - if they'd given me the chance. Please don't. -Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 05:03, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Mentorship...
Hi, I hope you stick around and get unblocked... if you do, I'd be willing to step in and be your Mentor while Draeco is away on medical leave (btw, he was also my mentor). Best, Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 05:05, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Just a note...
Hello everyone. I just want ot let everyone know that I'm still around, and I will be getting help in the near future. You guys can not imagine how much remorse I feel for announcing something like that. I have read all of your comments and thank you so much for your support. And Rob, Yes, I would be honored to become your mentee after I get unblocked. Thanks for your support, --  Para sect  (Discuss) 20:37, 26 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Very glad to hear that you are still around and doing better (and getting help). My cousin tried (fortunately, he did not succeed - which is amazing, as he is one of the handful of people who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge and didnt succeed), and sadly, I've lost friends to such. One thing I have learned is that as long as we are around, we've got an opportunity to make things better for ourselves.
 * If you would like, I will forward an unblock request to MuZemike - or we can wait until you feel ready to come back. Best, Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 20:41, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much. I would be happy to come back to Wikipedia as soon as possible. Thank you so much :D --  Para sect  (Discuss) 20:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

I have gone ahead and unblocked you, as it looks like you're OK again. Keep in mind that I originally placed the block in your best interest as a person so that you could get the help that you needed; it was in no way meant to be against you in any way. Anyways, if you have any other concerns, drop by at one of our talk pages or email us. –MuZemike 21:16, 26 October 2010 (UTC)


 * "What he said" :-) - and welcome back! I'll be updating my userpage soon to add you to my list of adoptees. Thanks for accepting me as your Mentor, I hope not to let you down! Best, Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 21:31, 26 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Good to see you back and have found another mentor, Parasect. You've got e-mail. — Cactus Writer (talk) 21:35, 26 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok guys. Thanks so much. --  Para sect  (Discuss)
 * It's good to see everything is fine. I was using igloo when I saw that edit to your user page, which prompted me to make an ANI report. Welcome back! ~  Nerdy Science  Dude  00:59, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks! --  Para sect  (Discuss)] 14:20, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Sig Fix
Hi again, just noticed your sig needs a minor fix. Ya may want to look for this:  (Formerly Platyfishkeeper) and add one slash in the    tag so it reads  (Formerly Platyfishkeeper) 

Best, Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 22:02, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks, :)--  Para sect  (Discuss)00:26, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Any time. Lemme know if there's anything I can help you with - or if you want to help me or my other adoptees on some of the articles we are working on (I've got a few adoptees who are not native English speakers who I am helping with some grammar and wording fixes). Best, Rob R OBERT M FROM LI  TALK/CNTRB 00:29, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright. Thanks again :)--  Para sect  (Discuss)
