Welcome note
Welcome!

Hello, Werldwayd, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions, especially those to the Paul Guiragossian article.

You might like to read these pages, which helped me when I was starting:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Writing better articles
 * Manual of Style

Wikipedia can be kind of crazy, so if you need help, don't hesitate to ask. Check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  in a new section on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! « D. Trebbien ( talk ) 20:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

New Page Patrolling
Hi Werldwayd. Thank you for patrolling  new pages. I noticed that you  recently  patrolled Az (people) as OK for insertion without  applying  any  maintenance tags, but  I  feel  you  may  have missed something  extremely  important. Please consider returning to  the article and applying  any  template(s) that  might  be necessary. Please read WP:NPP because the page is constantly updated as situations change,  in particular this section. Thanks.--Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:53, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Congo (area)
Hello. I suppose you didn't mean to create Congo (area) as a spin off of Congo (which now functions as a disambiguation page). I had therefore taken very the first steps to convert it into an article for a geographical region, following existing examples on other geographical regions. 218.250.159.42 (talk) 19:51, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I have responded on your talk page werldwayd (talk) 04:14, 8 January 2012 (UTC)


 * You comment that you have "taken very the first steps to convert it into an article for a geographical region, following existing examples on other geographical regions". I understand that. But actually the reason for me creating Congo (area) was not to develop a long article nor to duplicate the Congo and Congo (disambiguation). I usually create many pages for artists of Congolese origin working in Europe (France elsewhere) but without us knowing precisely from which specific Congo they originate from. Forwarding them to Congo will give huge choices that are unhelpful. So Congo (area) was created to reduce choices to just two. So when we don't know an artist or another person's precise country of origin, we can link him to Congo (area) as if being able to say he is from Congo but without the need to specify which Congo. What you are trying to do is to expand the concept into describing a "historical" African Congo before the European occupation arose and present day borders drawn. This historical Congo area concept might include even areas beyond the two specific republics into areas that were historically Congolese but now geographically in other African states like Portuguese Congo, or say during Kingdom of Kongo (1400–1914), covering parts of present-day Angola and the two Congo states and Kongo dia Nlaza (until late in the 16th century), a former kingdom absorbed by the Kingdom of Kongo. It is a legitimate effort actually, and very important concept. But probably that aspect might have been already covered in Wikipedia anyway. Still Wikipedia is a free space and all are welcome to add materials. But it kind of defeats the purpose to create it in Congo (area). I would suggest opening another page entitled Historical Congo and start from there. Just a thought werldwayd (talk) 04:12, 8 January 2012 (UTC)


 * That's logical, since both Congos are French-speaking countries. But I believe the proper way forward is to figure out the actual origin of these people. In case they're having ancestry from both Congos or their ancestry predates the colonisation of the Congos, the Congo (area) article would probably be good enough. Furthermore, I don't think the geographical region is a historical one. The Kongo people in different countries, for instance, are the same people and have the same native language. It is still one cultural region regardless of the political borders. 218.250.159.42 (talk) 10:24, 8 January 2012 (UTC)


 * That's precisely why I created the page. Cabonda was a good addition to this. I don't know if there are other "Congo" areas as well to add. Regarding you editing anonymously, and just for accountability, its much better for majour edits to be done by contributors who sign with an ID. werldwayd (talk) 14:50, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

List of number-one hits of 2012 (Turkey)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of List of number-one hits of 2012 (Turkey), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: List of number-one hits of 2011 (Turkey). It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 08:10, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I do appreciate that as the verifiable directorial debut of a notable person, this article meets a criteria of WP:NF... but I ask that you take a look at this edit and consider that a redirect is pretty much okay for now just so long as there is no prejudice toward a recreation of the article if/when more sources become available AND as long as the returned article be properly sourced and maintain a properly neutral tone.

Removing Speedy at Tal (singer)
Hi Werldwayd, you recently removed a deletion tag from Tal (singer). Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 00:38, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Tal (singer). If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 01:31, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You really should pay attention to these notices. The addition of a claim that she had a charting single in France is sufficient to clear A7, and I think any admin would have accepted the explanation on the talk page. All getting into an edit war with SDPatrolBot does is make you unnecessarily run the risk of getting blocked.&mdash;Kww(talk) 02:28, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Tricia Walsh-Smith
Dear Werldwayd, I hope you are well. You strike me as a very responsible, sensible and experienced Wikipedia editor. You have done wonders with the Maher Zain pages. Can I please ask you to take a look at a concerning page (even though it is probably not one you would ordinarily have any interest in). I am a bit concerned about the bio page on Tricia Walsh-Smith. One user who calls herself Fruitinlondon claims actually to be Tricia Walsh-Smith, the subject of the page. On the talk page I have encouraged this user to treat the BLP page with great care and to comply with Wikipedia Biographies of living persons guidelines. I have drawn this person's attention to our need to be very careful with verifiability, neutrality, and avoiding original research. In my opinion, this person has recklessly edited this page at times. I will be very grateful if you will please have a look at this person's edits, as well as my thorough advice to him or her on the Tricia Walsh-Smith talk page. I've never had the experience before of dealing with an editor who claims to be the subject of the article. Have you? I want to be scrupulously fair and reasonable, whilst maintaining standards. Please offer me and / or the user any advice or guidance that will help to keep the page neutral, factual and scrupulously verified. Thank you for your time. Best wishes.GorgeCustersSabre (talk) 00:27, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Abalone Dots, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Bluegrass and Torsåker (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Thomas Hardy
I noticed that you recently changed the Thomas Hardy page into a dab, redirecting the famous writer's page to Thomas Hardy (writer). Thomas Hardy the writer gets 50000 views per month while none of the other pages on the new dab get even 1000. It seems like a strange thing to do to make 50000 people per month search a dab page to get to the Thomas Hardy writer page. INeverCry  22:35, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Cheyenne-jackson-amfar-reuters.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Cheyenne-jackson-amfar-reuters.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 10:38, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Rock-with-sedaka.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Rock-with-sedaka.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.

Lyrik
I came across this article today as I was adding listas to talk page. It had a ref, but the domain of the ref is for sale. I wasn't able to find a good reference, but it is a common name. I was about to do a Prod or AfD, but I saw you created the article. Could you find a ref for it? Bgwhite (talk) 22:44, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

Ki Fitzgerald‎
I want to do an Afd on him, but I thought I'd get your opinion first. You are more into music than I am. I'm unable to find that he has released any albums. He has co-written some songs. The Jonas Brother's song list five songwriters. I can find plenty of refs of him suing is old band, Busted, for money. He left the band before any albums and Busted hit it big after he left. His claims were he wrote some of the songs. But, he lost the case. He also goes by the name of Ki McPhail. Out of my last 100 Afd's I submitted, only 3 were kept and they were singers. So, I have a problem with them. Bgwhite (talk) 06:20, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Hatnotes
Hi Werldwayd. You recently added hatnotes to Next to Me (album) and Irma (name), among others. Please keep a couple of things in mind when adding those: Please use a template listed at WP:Hatnote and place them at the very top of an article per WP:HNP. Secondly, do not add hatnotes to articles with names that are not ambiguous unless there is a very good reason, see WP:NAMB. And last but not least always observe WP:HOWTODAB when linking to a disambiguation page, otherwise someone needs to fix those links. If you have questions or need help with the templates drop me a note. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 18:37, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Welcome note
Welcome!

Hello, Werldwayd, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions, especially those to the Paul Guiragossian article.

You might like to read these pages, which helped me when I was starting:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Writing better articles
 * Manual of Style

Wikipedia can be kind of crazy, so if you need help, don't hesitate to ask. Check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  in a new section on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! « D. Trebbien ( talk ) 20:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
