Will Whitehorn
Well, he is the president of Virgin Galactic which will probably be the first company in the world to offer spaceflights to non-professional astronauts, isn't that notable enough? This is mentioned in the stub-article and there is a few links which can verify this. Skizzik (talk) 23:14, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Virgin Galactic is definitely notable but that doesn't mean Mr. Whitehorn is. However, I agree that the references do qualify as secondary sources per WP:EL but it is hard to tell without drilling down into them.  I'll format them to make it clearer and explain my vote against on the article's talk page. Is this thing working? (talk) 23:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Idid decline thespeedy. Presidents and CEOs of major companies are usually considered notable at WP. DGG (talk) 00:42, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:RobotKingdomCover.gif

Ambisonic decoding
You moved Ambisonic decoding from to. Unfortunately it doesn't really fit there. It is an audio technology and does not fit under any of the child stubs under. ( is probably the closest fit, although still a poor one.) While I approve of stub sorting in general, I am moved to revert your change. HairyWombat (talk) 21:44, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I proposed, and have now created the new stub. I have moved Ambisonic decoding from into it. HairyWombat (talk) 03:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Harold Camping NPOV tag
A couple months ago, you flagged the "Controversies" section of Harold Camping as non-NPOV. I don't see anything about it that really strikes me as NPOV. Can you elaborate on why you added the tag and what could be done to fix your concerns? Thanks, Kansan (talk) 17:12, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The phrases "claims to be a "Christian,"" and "not a true follower of Jesus" set off alarm bells to me. — Is this thing working? (talk) 22:02, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You're right that those phrases are definitely NPOV violations, but I don't see them in the article, so can we remove the tag from that section? (There are issues with some of the other sections, but I just want to tackle it one piece at a time.) Kansan (talk) 23:10, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 * That's how it read when I tagged it but it's much better now. Feel free to de-tag. Is this thing working? (talk) 23:16, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Col Warning
Hello Is this thing working? I understand that a person close to the organization they are writing about could be a little bias but if any of my material (which is my own copyright) they would see all I wanted to state was the actual history of a Chinese pitbike. Wiki has SDG and Pitstar listed and nice paragraph articles on them but they came after us. They copied our business plan (ie bring in Chinese pitbikes and modify them with hop up parts). Also unlike most other pitbike companies like SDG, we are still around and if anyone asks around, we are the top Pitbike company in the US.

How do we get our proper information on that pitbike page? We created the Pitbike craze. I have magazine articles to prove it. Mleija23 (talk) 16:54, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Go to Talk:Pit bike and post the name of the magazine, the article title, author, date and page numbers. Wait for another editor to read it and add it to the article. Remember that Wikipedia is a volunteer project and it might be some time before a volunteer is able to get to it. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:09, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * What Dennis said. There's no need for hasty edits, if you make the sources available — which should be abundant if your product is in fact as well known as you say — then the volunteer editors will be eager to incorporate them in the article, and you don't have to worry about appearing to be here for self-promotion instead of building an encyclopedia.
