Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. --Dynaflow  babble  09:58, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Choke ballast
Please consider creating the article Choke ballast if you feel experienced enough to do so, and inform me if you do. I have written on several items that use them (tanning beds and such) but I don't have enough background to sufficiently explain them. It is my opinion that this would be a worthwhile article, as the technology is being fazed out and fewer people understand them. I have uploaded pictures previously including a choke ballast, lamp starter, lamp ends and choke ballast wiring diagram for the article tanning lamp, which may prove helpful. I can do other custom images or photographs relating to it as well. Thanks! P HARMBOY ( TALK ) 22:29, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Your edits to Arc lamp
Thanks for your contributions: an overview from someone qualified in a particular topic is always welcome. However, citing your ownership of an arc lamp, the topic under discussion, in the footnotes is original research, which isn't allowed. Reliable sources must be provided, which usually means independently published work from a recognised authority that is available to other editors to check. You may also like to read WP:HOWTO, which warns against including "how to do it" sections in articles. It's always useful to check the talk pages and history of an article before starting: it's often the case that the wording you are considering for change has been hammered out to an agreed form—the consensus—by long discussion in the past. This was the case with "Carbon arc lamp". A consensus is not immutable, but any changes need to be given some careful consideration first. Finally on this and other articles: please stop changing (or even changing back other editor's repairs) its to it's when it's the possessive pronoun: The possessive pronouns (third person) are his, hers, its and theirs, not hi's, her's, it's and their's. --Old Moonraker (talk) 15:10, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Mention of arc lights reminds me of an incident from my youth which I have written up in this blog posting (also here). &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 03:52, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The above two external links were bypass links because, at the time Wikipedia was refusing to allow the creation of links to myspace. Apparently I can now link directly to the blog posting. RHaworth.com is now defunct so the revised version of the second link is here. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 00:31, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Newton Centimetre
A tag has been placed on Newton Centimetre, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. —Largo Plazo (talk) 17:25, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Apparently Largoplazo and Orangemike (who deleted it) were both unaware that newton centimetre (note lower case on both words) is a perfectly valid (albeit highly unusual) unit. The use of Db-nonsense-notice was, at best, inappropriate. I hope its unneccessarily strong wording will not discourage you from contributing. (Preceding text replacing the following struck text.) The above was a rather ignorant nomination. I apologise on behalf of the nominator. Your definition was however: a) utterly wrong - it is not "Newtons per centimetre" - learn your physics! and b) better dealt with as a redirect. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 19:47, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * "The above was a rather ignorant nomination." Can I ask you to take a look at WP:CIVIL and ask you to reword your remark? And since when I nominate an article for speedy deletion it means that two people's judgment is involved&#8212;mine and the deleting administrator's&#8212;your remark is also indirectly applicable to Orangemike. As for the redirection, in retrospect I should have thought of it, but so I made a mistake. That hardly warrants a slur.—Largo Plazo (talk) 20:09, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I felt that my message fell within the limits of parliamentary language but there is no harm in rewording. Can I ask Largo Plazo to take a look at WP:BITE - I feel that the Largo's first message fell pretty firmly into biting territory. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 04:06, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
