Kombucha's Talk Page
Say whatever you want to me here, although I'd rather not be flamed, if you can resist the temptation.

To ensure that I (and others) can clearly follow the progress of this page, please do the following:


 * Sign all comments. If you have no account, I suggest you either get one, or sign your comment with something to identify you.

Thank you for starting this talk page, and thank you for your advice. Although I have not written any articles, or done any major editing for Wikipedia before the Honour and Justice article, I have edited small mistakes, both in content and spelling/grammar before. I have also read a great deal of articles, so I am not entirely new to Wikipedia.

I hope to write an article that there is less disagreement over in the near future. I simply need to find something that I know about that hasn't already been written about. That, I must say, is not very easy! --Kombucha 21:24, 22 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Good luck, and don't feel bad if the article gets redirected or deleted. It happens all the time.   Friday (talk) 01:45, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Sh1 streets.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Sh1 streets.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 21:40, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Western stereotype of the male ballet dancer
Hello, Kombucha. Personally, I think you should experiment with nominating an article for deletion, to get more comfortable with the process. First, I would suggest scanning the article in question, and then checking out basic policies like WP:Notability, WP:V, and WP:RS. Does the article's subject appear notable? Is there reasonably decent coverage of the subject in other sources (a Google or Bing search should help with determining this)? If not, a deletion nomination is appropriate. If you are interested, the page WP:Articles for deletion has some tips and something of a how-to guide. If you'd rather have another editor handle the nomination, that's fine, but it's worth trying. dci &#124;  TALK   01:20, 19 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your input. I'll do as you suggested tomorrow. However, this does seem (to me) to be quite a difficult thing to assess. One reason I'm uncertain is that it's a very narrow topic and so could be considered unnecessary even if other sources can be found to qualify it as notable. Perhaps overcategorization is also an issue? Kombucha (talk) 01:45, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Now that I think about it, perhaps the most appropriate first action would be to nominate the article to be merged into another. Kombucha (talk) 01:46, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Sounds good; please let me know if you need any help.  dci  &#124;  TALK   01:58, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Take a look also at Notability for criteria that can help to decide a likely target article for merging. The best option would be an article about cultural influence of ballet, but there is no such thing at Wikipedia. History of ballet is related, but this content seems too specific there. If there is no good target for merging, it's better to have it as a short article. If you feel that it has to be merged, maybe Billy Elliot is an option? It's a high profile film that dealt with the topic. Diego (talk) 10:19, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Nice to meet you
... on Mozart. A more general discussion is on project level, following one on Pierre Boulez. We are in the eleventh year of the infobox wars which I still don't understand ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:44, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
