Big talk.

Removing material without explanation is vandalism. Removing material with it is not. CyberAnth 07:29, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Copyright concerns
The article Washington College Academy was marked as a copyright concern and listed for evaluation at the copyright problems board. Investigation suggests that the page does duplicate the suspected source. You should have been notified of these concerns, but evidently were not. The template I am placing below, though engineered for new contributors, does contain some useful information for how you may address this matter, such as verifying permission if you have been authorized to place text here from that site or revising if you have not. Since the material is reserved, "© Washington College Academy 2005", and archives confirm that it predates our usage here, I'm afraid that we will not be able to retain the article without verification of permission by one of the processes below. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 01:54, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi!
I think you are most likely the Grkndeacon that I know from Livejournal. I didn't know that you were also a homeschooler. We now have four children, with the youngest learning how to walk. Anyway, you might want to check out the Quiverfull entry. I have edited it in accordance with Wikipedia guidelines and explained it on the talk page. Pammalamma (talk) 04:33, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 08:58, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
