For the record
In reference to your comment on Featured article candidates/Pilot (House)/archive2, Featured articles are not chosen based on subject. They are chosen based on the quality. The articles length and topic are not a factor. A good example of articles that are not chosen based on topic is the Exploding whale article. To sum it all up: it's quality not quantity. The Filmaker 04:28, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd like to request that you stop by and give your support at least give some actionable objection to the article becoming an FA. The Filmaker 20:55, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Re:Misunderstanding
Hello there, I'm afraid that type of information can be seen as inappropriate for an article. Wikipedia tries to be as factually accurate as possible and information like that which you added is unverifiable. Thinking of it logically, did someone go around and ask each and every person there to see if they were gay? And even then, would the population all have been honest? It's for these reasons I reverted you additions to the article. --Sagaciousuk (talk) 06:20, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Also:
 * In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button [[Image:Button sig2.png]] located above the edit window.  This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!

Deleting articles
Hi there, you left a note on Devin (The Office) for the article to be deleted, which should be carried out shortly. In future, please do not leave a page like this as this gives the false impression there is an article there when there isn't. Please either move the article to a new title (as would have been appropriate in this case), redirect it to another article (if you would have found that the article already exists) or have the page deleted by an administrator (in this case, you could have placed db-author on the page as you were the only contributor). Thanks, and happy editing, mattbr30 14:46, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on OfficeTally.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add  on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. thadius856talk 20:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:ImpatientBarnstar.png
Thanks for uploading Image:ImpatientBarnstar.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 16:06, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Durham NC
I see you're adding this project banner to some articles. That's great, but I wanted to make a humble suggestion. You needn't add the Template: part inside the brackets. will achieve the same effect.

Hey mrcrabby- Don't you think that this WikiProject would be better as a task force of WikiProject North Carolina? Durham only has about 3 dozen pages-we could work under the NC administrators and they could do the boring stuff while we just edited the Durham pages. Jonwilliamsl

Regarding Deletion of a Tag on Devon's (The Office) Entry
I am not bound to discuss removing the tag. Here is a quote from the tag's disclaimer:

"You may remove this message if you improve the article, or if you otherwise object to deletion of the article for any reason. To avoid confusion, it helps to explain why you object to the deletion, either in the edit summary or on the talk page. If this template is removed, it should not be replaced."

Notice the wording. "If you otherwise object...for any reason." I am told that it "helps" to explain why I feel the object should not be deleted. I don't wish to help, I wish for Devon to remain on Wikipedia.

I see you're a Duke fan. That, along with your desire to delete Devon, is unfortunate.

A suggestion
In May 2005, Durham School of the Arts performed The Laramie Project, about a homosexual being beaten and killed. Ten members of Fred Phelps' Westboro Baptist Church came from Topeka, Kansas to protest. They were met by over 200 counter-protesters. In fact, counter protesters out showed the protesters 10 to 1. The actors and producers were given the Independent Weekly's Valor Award for ignoring protests by Phelp's group. Victuallers 11:18, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:WRAL Logo.jpg
Image:WRAL Logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Importance rating
The NC State main article received a "mid-importances" rating while the NC State Wolfpack article received a "high-importance" rating. I am not sure what criteria are used to judge the importance of an article, but that seems backwards to me. What do you think?

GAN on hold for Climate of North Carolina
I have went ahead and put the GAN on hold for Climate of North Carolina. It just needs a few tweaks here and there to get up to GA status. It would be a good idea to include a few more references, or use the same one more than once using. You also should include some information about the state's severe weather climatology. I suggest using data from Raleigh's National Weather Service office for detailed information, and the extremely useful (for all things) National Climactic Data Center database, for hard numbers and descriptions of events after about 1990. I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by North Carolina, especially Raleigh. Keep up the good work! Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 03:46, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The weather section is the one that needs more references, but even though I didn't see any controversial comments, cite everything in the Global Warming section. For the severe weather, look at List of North American tornadoes and tornado outbreaks for tornadoes in the state, and add them in under a severe weather section. Just include general severe weather climatology (deadliest, costliest). Just use those links above to find some of the info, but the list also has info. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 19:40, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I've solved the problem concerning the lack of a precipitation section. Let me know what you think of the change, and whether or not it looks good to you.  While I can't review it for GA per se, I can help out with the editing.  Thegreatdr (talk) 20:16, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

And if you're a non-member reading this, feel free to drop by and add your name to the reconfirmation category; you'll be added into the list once it's finished. Thanks, and have a great day!

Just saw it. I can't take much credit for anything, you did a lot of the work.

Also, I'd like to pose a question. In the very near future, would you like to collaborate on the Season 2 and 4 articles? 2's almost at FL status, but 4 needs some work.  Mastrchf91 (t/c) 22:03, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello. Since you've moved all The Office episode articles, all the images in them now fail the fair use requirements since they do not contain the exact name of the article in which they are used. Your task isn't finished. Gimmetrow 03:16, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

There's a great site, http://www.tvbythenumbers.com, which does detailed analysis and has charts and rankings for TV ratings, but they started with the 2007-2008 TV season.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:LostPeanutButterHurleyCharlie.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:LostPeanutButterHurleyCharlie.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:18, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi, there, Mr. Crabby, I'm taking you up on your offer to help out with rating the importance and/or quality of articles. I have been unable to figure out how to put a rating on the talk page of an article. I see the scale, and I went hunting for information on rating, but I couldn't find anything that described the steps necessary to actually post that rating on the page.

 * This sentence needs to be changed: "Although he was placed in special education classes,[3] McElwain was introduced to basketball by his older brother Josh,[4] and was appointed manager of Greece Athena High School's varsity basketball team.[3]"

When did his brother introduce him? If he introduced him when he was young, then that needs to be moved up a bit...chronological order. Also, the article will probably fail the comprehensiveness requirement (see 3a) in the GA Review... Sorry and cheers,  -talk- the_ed17  -contribs-  04:23, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Extreme points of Bulgaria
Thanks for working on a Bulgaria-related topic, a still underrepresented area of our encyclopedia (but we're trying! :)) You've done a great job with the list and it has the potential to get to Featured list status in my opinion. You have my full support. I saw the request for a peer review but as I don't have much experience with that or with featured lists, I'll just leave a few suggestions and ideas here :) First, I can tell you that would be pretty hard to obtain free licensed images of some of those points from the ground, but we can perhaps make the article more shiny by adding pictures at least depicting the entire geographic feature or something close nearby. The first row in the tables might display a small thumbnail of each place.

For example, we can include:


 * North: Image:April2003 (22) Timok.JPG or better yet something without a time tag (or doctored out)
 * South: Would have to be a general view of the Eastern Rhodopes, something like Image:East-Rhodopes-view.JPG. There are also unfree (yet :)) images of Veykata here.
 * West: Hard one. There are photos of the nearby village of Bobeshino, Image:Bobeshino-church-Ignat-Ignev.jpg and Image:Bobeshino-Ignat-Ignev.jpg. Edit: there are also images of Zheravino, not sure which one is closer, Image:Zheravino-church-Ignat-Ignev.jpg and Image:Zheravino-Ignat-Ignev.jpg. Online I found some unfree images of Shulep Kamak here.
 * East: We have Image:Shabla-lighthouse-dinev.jpg, the lighthouse on the cape. Image:Shabla Lighthouse 2008.jpg is less pastoral :P
 * Highest: Image:Musala.JPG or something like that, there are many free images as it's a popular climbing spot, needless to say.
 * Lowest: Pick one of the hundreds but I've always had a crush on Image:Veleka-sinemorets-mouth-dinev.jpg :)

I might get to ask the owners of those unfree images I mentioned to release them under a free license, but unfortunately I'll be out of town for three days. If you can do that in the meantime, it would be great. If not, I promise I'll get to ask the guys as soon as I'm back.

Also, we need some more references for the descriptions of the locations, and some more descriptive text about the areas where Shabla and Shulep Kamak are located. For example, Shulep Kamak is in the Chudintsi Mountain (locally Чудинска планина, Chudinska planina). Something like that or that is quotable, but in Bulgarian. The latter is practically a list of all the points and can be used as a general source. As for Shabla, Dobruja can be mentioned to give some geographic idea.

I also suggest removing the descriptive text from the tables and adding it in the paragraphs: it would help keep the tables concise. Todor→Bozhinov 20:48, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Great, let's hope it'll make it :) As a contributor to the article, am I allowed to vote? I'll express my support anyway, but I wonder if my vote counts. Todor→Bozhinov 21:20, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Office episodes
Hey Crabby, long time no see! Yesterday, I felt a sudden urge to get the rest of the season 1-3 Office articles to GA status, and I was wondering if you'd like to aid in this endeavor? Basically, I'm just interested in completing the work we originally started months ago, and eventually get Good Topics for the first 3 seasons. Your thoughts? <span style="font-family:Lucida Calligraphy, sans-serif;"> Mastrchf91 (t/c) 14:13, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, time is also an issue with me. I've not as much time to spend on Wikipedia as I used to, unfortunately.  I was thinking that this could be a rather on-going project, whereas last time we were knocking off multiple ones per day, I'd love to get even a few per month.  Most of my available time is on weekends, so perhaps we could just work when we can and converse whenever.  As for Dwight Schrute, if my memory serves, the article was nommed prematurely for GA, despite my warnings.  It was almost 100% in universe material, and not likely to pass anything.  Then, without even going through a GA review, it was nommed for FA, where it quite easily and quickly was failed.  I've added bits and pieces of out of universe material here and there.  <span style="font-family:Lucida Calligraphy, sans-serif;"> Mastrchf91  (t/c) 14:59, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of Arsenal F.C. individual awards


The article List of Arsenal F.C. individual awards has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * WP:LISTCRUFT and WP:Incomplete lists, no other football clubs have lists devoted to 'individual' awards

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The article was proposed for deletion by an anon editor. I can see that the last point in the nomination is incorrect in that you have also created the page List of Leicester City F.C. individual awards, but I'm not expressing an opinion about the rest of it either way. If you miss this notice until after the deletion, please apply to WP:REFUND if you want it to be undeleted. – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:23, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
