Re: 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict
Because it is linked from the main page, I will be unable to do so. Please list it at WP:RFPP. Thanks. -- Pilotguy (roger that) 00:39, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

No i couldn't either. Hello32020 21:06, 31 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It could just be server load, I will see if theres any other sources for it 82.29.227.171 21:20, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

New Jersey School District edits
Welcome aboard! Thanks for yur efforts to fill in and create articles for several of the school districts in New Jersey that did not have articles. In craeting and expanding the articles for virtually every other existing NJ school district article, I have developed a very crude standard, which I have applied to Absecon Public School District. The names of the articles have been standardized to match the names used by the districts themselves, not the names of the districts listed in List of school districts in New Jersey which unfortunately rarely match the names used by each district. Information needed to fill in the templates are available at NCES school search which has the NCES district ID and State district ID on the district page once you've selected the correct district. The DFG category is on the bottom of each municipality article, for all municipalities where the district article had not been created. I hope this is helpful for you in (and not too daunting) if you are still willing to work on thiese article. Thanks again for all your effort! Alansohn 21:28, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

July 2006 North Korean-South Korean border skirmish
Hi, I noticed this article which you created was up for deletion. Perhaps you would like to submit it to Wikinews where news stories can be submitted --Astrokey 44 06:03, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Hurricane articles
Please stop creating articles on hurricanes until they are necessary. As you can see, you jumped the gun on Daniel and in the end it did nothing. As of right now, there is little to no information that can be added to an article on Chris not already in the main seasonal article. Chacor 12:00, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

May I Suggest Wikinews?
You're doing some great work on being the first to create and update current events articles. However, may I suggest Wikinews? You help would appreciated there greatly, I'm sure. I'm not suggesting you leave Wikipedia (of course not), but as an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is not really meant to cover the less historic events of our times. A good question to think about when creating a current events article is "Will this event be important or remembered in ten (or five or twenty) years?" If the answer is clearly no, it probably should not have an article on Wikipedia, but may be worth one on Wikinews. --  tariq abjotu  (joturner) 12:44, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Kudos for July 2006 Cuban transfer of power

 * Heh, I guess the section title is a little misleading. I didn't mean to imply that you transfered power in Cuba. :) Either way, excellent idea on breaking this article out of the main Fidel Castro.  I know many will say it belongs on Wikinews, but, until people get used to that, you know people will come here and edit thrashing will ensue, filled with WP:NOT, WP:NPOV, WP:yada yada yada. bAt least it is contained and once the edit fever dies down, what's left can be merged back into the main article. &mdash; MrDolomite | Talk 14:33, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

David Witt tagged for speedy deletion
David Witt has been tagged for speedy deletion under A7 criteria (non-notable person). He isn't notable simply for being Landis's father, nor for the fact he committed suicide. Your creation of new articles is bordering on WP:POINT. Chacor 13:58, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I strongly disagree with your assertion. Hello32020 14:03, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


 * We are not Wikinews, nor a memorial. Your continued creation of articles that violate this policy is becoming disruptive. Take it from an ex-admin - I'd know. Chacor 14:05, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Deletion of David Witt
Could you restore and nominate it for Articles for Deletion. I don't think that was resolved yet. Hello32020 14:18, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The admin deleting it usually has the last say, and I fully support the deletion, as an ex-admin. Chacor 14:20, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think it classifies for speedy deletion. If you disagree, go to Deletion review — Mets 501  (talk) 14:24, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
