Brylan Records
Please check Talk:Brylan Records... I've attempted to justify the creation of this article.

I've also added the required "hangon" template.
 * Hi and welcome to wikipedia! I requested a speedy deletion because the article is very short (2 lines), doesn't cite any source, and, in my opinion, it does not meet the notability criteria (A google search gave only 2 results). Also, you might want to sign your comments with four tildes when leaving a message in a talk page! :) --Swalot 18:22, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

IPA2
Hi, ! Thank you for your message. I just did according to your notice. Can you give your opinion upon the article for deletion: IPA2? I am against its deletion cos I think it is a very useful page where I can find the info about my favourite subject which is alphabet change. -Persiciser, 17:20, 16 September 2006 (UTC).
 * Hi Persiciser! I don't want to delete it, even if I'm not against its deletion, either. However, if you think that it should not be deleted, you should leave a comment Here (and you did) rather than deleting the AfD message! :) --Swalot 18:22, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Virtual classroom
I've set up the Virtual classroom (VC), which is a forum for the discussion of advanced Wikipedia skills. It differs from the help forums on Wikipedia in that major topics of discussion are scheduled and once started remain continuous.

The reason I'm contacting you is because one of the class assignments is a comparison of our user interfaces. A lot can be learned from individual users, who usually have developed their own ways of doing things. I noticed you are an expert programmer, so you no doubt have some tricks up your sleeve. I'm hoping that you will stop by and share and compare the interfaces you use when browsing and working on Wikipedia. I've also constructed a tools page which presents everything learned from these discussions, and it is growing -- there are some pretty powerful techniques on there now. Even Interiot, Rich Farmbrough, and CBDunkerson have stopped by the VC to show off their tools and methods. It's been a lot of fun, and you are invited. The interface topics are called:


 * External interfaces - let's compare

and


 * Internal interfaces - what do you use?.

I look forward to seeing you there and to learning your wikiways. Sincerely,  Th e Tr ans hu man ist    06:10, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
