About that signature
Yes, that is way too much. Also the code is broken, every font tag needs to be closed. That means you have to make it even longer, which is going to be even worse. Please change it. Prodego talk 18:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Signature
Please fix your signature so that it complies with the guidelines set down at WP:SIG. Adding 711 characters of pure guff to the site every time you sign your name is unacceptable, it hinders users with slow computers and connections, it is unreadable by those with colour blindness and the code you use is liable to break screenreading software used by blind users, for those of us that are on fast connections and have perfect vision, it's just plain disruptive. There is nothing wrong with the standard signature and this, or a lightly modified version should be used. Nick (talk) 18:20, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I would ask that when you change your signature to something much shorter in terms of characters/lines etc, you re-sign your comments on active talk pages and pages like RfAs in order to remove the long and unwieldy version of your signature that's present. Archived pages should be OK to leave as they are though. Nick (talk) 18:25, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Very much agreed. Your signature is quite gaudy and irritating, plus the fact that it spans nearly two lines because of all the superscript. Please change it as soon as possible. Glass  Cobra  18:23, 14 April 2009 (UTC)


 * All that needs to be done IMO to make the sig reasonable, is to bring remove the second set of superscript, so it is on the level of the first. Beyond that there arent really any issues. Jenuk1985  |  Talk  18:28, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Dagwoods
A tag has been placed on Dagwoods 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 a company or corporation, 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 companies and corporations.

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.

AfD nomination of Dagwoods
I have nominated Dagwoods, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Dagwoods. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Ironholds (talk) 14:55, 24 April 2009 (UTC) == Wikipedia Signpost : 27 April 2009 ==
