Hi, can you please check out the Nancy Mangano page that you voted to delete and maybe give me some tips to improve it? I spent hours making that and would hate to see it deleted and go to waste. Thanks Aximilli Isthill (talk) 01:27, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Inquiring about "Project: Firearms" photographs.
Hello! I noticed you coordinate Wikipedia's "Project Firearms" and thought you might have an answer to my question. I have recently purchased a large lot of collectible rifle and pistol cartridges, many of which Wikipedia does not have photos for. I would like to contribute by photographing them but I can't seem to find any guidelines for what the preferred method is. There's such a wide variety of different types of photos in the various articles and I can't find any consistency in them. Some of them are by themselves, others have common calibers alongside them for comparison, some have rulers beside them, and still others have black and white drawings or SAAMI dimensions in place of photos. I would appreciate it if you could straighten me out on the preferred method. Thanks! Ultratone85 (talk) 01:36, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey thanks for the quick response! The collection I picked up is at least 80 cartridges strong and includes all sorts of unique and unusual items. I haven't looked up every single one yet on Wikipedia but so far I can provide photos for .303 Savage, .44 S&W American, .401 Winchester Self-Loading, .284 Winchester, .25 Remington, .30 Remington, & 8mm Remington Magnum. I'll submit a couple of preliminary photos for you to look at before I go through and photograph all of the rest. Thanks for your help! Ultratone85 (talk) 21:47, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey thought I'd let you know I've finished going through my cartridge collection and I was able to contribute 18 photos to articles that needed them. If you'd like to look them over you can find them collected here User:Ultratone85/ammophotos. Thanks again for your help! Ultratone85 (talk) 23:21, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey Mike! Wanted to let you know the photos are already inserted into their respective articles. Thanks again! Ultratone85 (talk) 23:31, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited McFarlane Toys, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Austin Powers. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Stop Now
Your obstruction to Mr. Parini's wiki page is vandalism. It is obvious you are doing this because of his CNN piece on gun control. Stop now so no further action will have to be taken. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Appe499 (talk • contribs) 20:53, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Joey Gilbert boxing page
Why are you reverting the page from what I did???? I spent a lot of time fixing this page -- it has lots of errors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by R500Mom (talk • contribs) 19:11, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Joey Gilbert page.
Hi Mike:

I am a friend with Joey and he asked me to try and update his page and I know a little bit about Wiki, but I am not boxing expert. I'd like to work with you to clean it up.

The page includes information abotu banned substances but then does not include the results of further testing or the polygraph. I pulled some of the content from here but don't know how to reference it. Joey is steadfast that he did not take banned substances and went out of his way on testing and polygraph -- as we all know know, many supplements people were taking in the past were not always properly labeled for even monitored by the FDA.

 * Per this, I don't consider it a matter of AN/I. But the disability reference is pretty offensive to people who either have this condition or know someone who does. Please consider if you can make your overall point without including this disability stereotype. Euryalus (talk) 08:39, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Stub contest
A quick note to say that as of this evening you've got 10 points - and there's three days still to go, so if you've any more to add please get them in soon :-). One of the articles on your list is eligible for the contest but needs more expansion to get points. Thanks for the contributions! Andrew Gray (talk) 23:02, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
