Cheers!
I'm not really all that knowledgeable about Wiki, so I figure if I just point the things out, better people than I will fix them.

Speedy deletion nomination of Muzz Buzz
A tag has been placed on Muzz Buzz requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies.

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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Proposed deletion of Dome Coffee Locations

Saturday Night Live list of hosts and remarks
Hello Generic. I just wanted to send you a note thanking you for your starting a thread on this dilemma that CompFunk raised a few days ago. I am an occasional user. (I don't really feel the need to register fully) I was the one who reverted the edits, as as far as I could remember this is the way that the Seasons pages were handled (with remarks).

Anyhow I thought that users like JasonBres would get a bit upset at this, so I reverted and suggested he start a discussion before making such a huge edit. In fact I don't think he had even made any edits on that particular page until now. I couldn't reach him as I am not registered and his page is protected. So I am glad somebody started this discussion page. Thanks.

My view? I would say keep to some extent. I would say some info is cool and notable. Songs performed, special guests for example but when it gets to extraneous random facts, it gets too big. Although, I've seen other TV shows where they have had a main page, a list of episodes and then each individual season page with  a synopsis, notes and guest stars. (If we get rid of the notes in the seasons pages, why do we need two lists of the episodes, in the same page?) Honestly, I am a bit confused when it comes to Wikipedia. I understand where you guys are coming from, but it is a bit confusing when I have seen this format for the past few years, and then somebody new comes along and opens up a whole new can of worms. (Though I do have to say that the example he gave as a reason for this was a list of every episode of the series, while what we are talking about are Season pages.) Anyhow, I just thought I 'd pinch in with my 2 cents.65.92.21.111 (talk) 18:43, 6 December 2009 (UTC)samusek2

You are very welcome - glad to help and to know that my comments were useful. I think everyone who sticks around here at some point looks at their early work and cringes a bit, seeing only what could be improved (I know I do).

Please be aware that non-free images are only allowed in articles, not Wikiproject pages, article talk pages, etc.; see WP:NFCC criterion #9. If you want to use something like this for a Wikiproject banner, I would suggest making your own version with just the text "Saturday Night Live", but not the background. That could then be licensed PD-text. It can still be in the same font and layout, so the free image would be virtually the same as this non-free one. --dave pape (talk) 15:01, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

would greatly appreciate your help :)
Hi ! I am new to wiki so i hope I'm typing this in the right spot! I'm reaching out to other users for help. As I understand it, I need to track down an established wiki editor to help me rid the first article i've created ("Stone and Stone")of the ugly box that was posted on top "This article has multiple issues....".

I know exactly how these complaints came about. In my ignorance on how wiki works, I gave myself the same nickname as the subject I was writing on and then a whole drama ensued, as it was assumed that I was my subject and that I was writing an autobiography! In truth, I am a huge comedy fan and biographer and was dipping my toes for the first time in wikipedia waters!

Any help or solutions you could provide me when you get the chance would be greatly appreciated! This poor little article certainly doesn't deserve such an ugly heading box because of my wiki-ignorance! Thank you in advance for your time! Comedybiographer (talk) 10:32, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

SNL F-bomb?
''Personally, I think having this section, with is very subjective, in the main article is a problem. Better to move it to a new page, where it can be elaborated on (like adding the "f-bomb" incident from a couple episodes back. (...)'' Who said it?
