University of Illinois Department of Urban and Regional Planning
Would like to post an article discussing the Department of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Illinois to expand upon the page already describing the university. Also it would be an addendum to both the urban planning and regional planning pages. It would offer up additional information on the professional aspects of both jobs. The article would have an explanation of the department itself, and its role in both fields of study.

 * DURP Planning description


 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! DURP does sound like a very worthy organization, but I think it may be a better idea if you were to create a new section in the UIUC College of Fine and Applied Arts article rather than create a wholly new article at this time. When creating a new article, one has to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. The references you have listed are primary sources; such self-published works are not usually sufficient to meet the relevant notability criteria. Unlike creating a new article, there would be little problem with using such primary sources to add your information to the existing UIUC College of Fine and Applied Arts article. On another note, for Image:TBH fall.jpg, which was taken from this website and which you uploaded, you need to establish that we have permission under a compatible license from the author or copyright holder to use that image. This may be done in a couple of ways as explained here. That image is currently scheduled for deletion in a week if the licensing issues aren't worked out. I hope my comments have assisted you. If you have any more questions or need any more help, feel free to stop back! &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 08:59, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Almost Dead (band)
No article has been created for this Bay Area Heavy Metal band that has won several battle of the bands and is being considered by well known labels. Almost Dead has had incredible success on myspace pulling in almost 400,000 profile views and 380,000 total song plays. Almost Dead is also listed by countles bands as an influence due to Almost Dead's unique and innovated sound.

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! Almost Dead sounds like a very interesting music group. Before you create an article in our encyclopedia on them, you need to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. In this case the relevant notability criteria can be found at Notability (music). If the "battle of the bands" you have mentioned qualifies as a major music competition, the group may meet the criteria, but you'd still need to document that from secondary sources as I have mentioned above. You may want to ask the members of WikiProject Heavy Metal if the competitions or other qualities about the band merit it an article. I hope my answer has helped you, if you have any more questions or need any more help feel free to stop back! &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 09:42, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan
I could not find an article related to this social/spiritual organization in India.

The main motto of the organization is to bring peace to world through self realization.

I saw a video talk by Jill Bolte Taylor she is a Brain researcher... and towards the end of the talk she describes an experience which is similiar to what has been done by Yogi's from an age old process, that is nothing new, in India ... yogi's are there who do that very often.

And that is what "Divya Jyoti Jagrati sansthan" is all about, the main motto from them is not to draw you into theories but into practical (YES PRACTICAL..AND FREE OF CHARGE ...NO COST AT ALL) introduction of the divine light within a person. And then he floats with this light into a journey of self discovery, then the person beocmes a light onto himself and all the things associated with him, and the peace starts spreading along with him, through his non intrusive actions and work, he becomes an insipiration to others.... There are Reformed HARDCORE CRIMINALS, who have been reformed with this process.... in New Delhi India ... the Central Jail... which is one of the Largest Jail in India... this program is run for the inmates there for the last 10 years....and there are numerous other social activites which the Organization takes like a common problem of Drug Addiction and alcohol abuse, and many more....

I can contribute to the article ... but went through the guidelines of creating a new article on wikipedia.... the drawing board would really be helping me carve out a nice article about this. --Chaar Padarth ka gyaan, Can get you eeshwar mahaan (talk) 14:58, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Would this be the same movement that is detailed in the Divine Light Mission article? Here on the English language Wikipedia, our naming conventions require that article titles be recognizable by English speakers, which may be why you couldn't find it using a title in another language. If Divine Light Mission is not related to what you are writing about, then of course you may start a new article, only be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. I hope you have found my reply to be useful, if you have any more questions or need any more help feel free to stop back and ask! &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 10:10, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Pentax KX
The Pentax KX was the top-of-the-line mechanical SLR of the K series, introduced in 1975. The KM, K2, and ubiquitous K1000 round out the K series. The KX, a borderline professional/prosumer body, is essntially a Spotmatic F with a better meter in it. The popular Pentax MX is essentially just a miniaturized KX.

Reference: Bojidar Dimitrov's K mount page

Unfortunately that's the only non-forum-post/opinion reference I could find. Information is rare for this uncommon camera... and I hope to fix that! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stevopedia (talk • contribs) 17:09, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! An article on that camera would probably be very interesting. You are right in thinking that having only one source could be a problem because when creating an article one has to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. Looking at the articles on Pentax cameras, proper referencing seems to be a problem for all of them. It actually might be a good idea to merge most or all of the articles into List of Pentax products. A person you might want to discuss this further with would be User:Morven because it seems he has been working on starting a Wikiproject on cameras and he may be able to give you further input on where to get good information sources or whether articles should be merged. I hope you have found my reply useful. If you need any more help or have any more questions, feel free to stop back! &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 10:55, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

for the stop motion series gi joe sigma 6 figures will be used as the characters. the characters in the series will be

development
petrelli 49 was inspired by many superhero movies shows and comics (mainly heroes) originaly he to make a series called heroes: future perfect. the story was going to be about hiro, nathan, and peter trying to make the world they lve in a better place. but the idea was droped due to coming up with ideas to corny for the heroes franchise.

he said in an video on his youtube page.

"while wathcing an episode of heroes when they in the future. i thought of making a series like that. i wanted these 4 mutants to be in a future they didn't like so they do what they can to make it better." he came up with the title because 2012 in some religion is said to be the end of the world and since these mutants don't like the world they are living in it's kind of they're end in humanty.

release

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! I see that you have already been bold and created the 2012 series article, very good! However, as the article stands right now it is likely to be deleted. You see, when creating an article in our encyclopedia one has to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. If you know of secondary sources that have written about this subject, you need to add them to the article. You also need to explicitly state in the article itself in what aspects this new series meets our Notability (fiction), Notability (films) and/or Notability (web) guidelines.

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for writing! I see that an article on Mr. Bodie has already been created and speedily deleted with a reason given as, "An article about a real person that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant." Basically what that means is that as an encyclopedia, Wikipedia entries need to indicate exactly how they are important enough to warrant an article in an encyclopedia. When creating an article, one has to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. The relevant guideline for a biography would be Notability (people). Also, if you are writing about yourself you should know that Wikipedia strongly discourages autobiographies and similar conflicts of interest. You may, however, create a short bio on you own user page if you like. I hope my reply has been helpful to you.

My Dad
My dad is a firefighter for richmond VA he has firefighter of the year and he has also got the medal of valor from the presadent for saving some one out of a burning RV. he was on his way home from the firehouse and he saw an RV on fire becouse a trackter traler ran in to it and bleww up so its on fire and he got out of his truck with his fire extengwisher and went in to save the people in it one of the people in the RV was allredy dead and the other guy was stuck on the couch and my dad went in to the RV to get him and he did. my dad does not think he is a hero but i do. he is also the vice presadent of the Old Dominon Profeshanal FireFighters Burn Foundation he is working on bear that will change colers win water is to hot for kids in the bath tub. so i think that my dad needs to have his own page —Preceding unsigned comment added by Calebrules123456789 (talk • contribs) 23:58, 2 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! As a professional paramedic and a former firefighter myself, I can certainly appreciate your father's bravery and you are very right to be proud of him. I can also understand why he claims not to be a hero... it's because all of us in the rescue business know that any one of us would do the same thing. That and the fact that every year hundreds of firefighter, soldiers, paramedics, and police officers lose their lives while trying to protect or save others. Very often we feel that what we have done is no big deal compared to what those guys did. So, to get your dad an article in the encyclopedia, we have to prove that what he did was indeed exceptional- this is something we call notability. For example, those awards you mentioned, did they come from a national level? That is, was he the NFPA Firefighter of the year or was the medal of valor from the President of the United States? If so than he almost undoubtedly qualifies for an article, if not, the case is more difficult. If his story has gotten significant coverage in several newspapers, magazines, or in a book; then we may be able to make an article for him. Let us know the answers to these questions and we'll go from there, okay? Thanks for writing and remember, your dad is as proud of you and loves you as much as you do him &mdash; whether or not he has an article in an encyclopedia will never change that. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 02:20, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

IfTheWorldCouldVote.com
I was wondering if now wasn't the time to create a wikipedia page about IfTheWorldCouldVote.com.

It's a website launched in June 2008 where we, three guys from Iceland are giving the world an opportunity to vote for the next president of the United States of America. So far, close to 700.000 people form 211 countries world wide have voted. The site has been covered on thousands of blogs and forums and hundreds of radio stations, TV channels, newspapers and media around the world, including CNN and BBC.

 * Hi. The key to whether or not it belongs is that coverage you refer to on hundreds of radio station, TV channels, newspapers & media around the world. :) (The blogs are not likely to be helpful, as self-published sources.) Unless the website has won some kind of award, you'd probably be looking at the notability point for web sites that it has been widely discussed in reliable sources that are independent from the site itself. Google news certainly seems to support the widely.


 * You do have a challenge in writing the article, though, in that you are connected to the site. It's not impossible to contribute where you have a conflict of interest, but it is more difficult...sometimes because it may be harder to be neutral and avoid original research, and sometimes simply because Wikipedians are highly suspicious of conflict editing. It really isn't recommended that you create the article, but rather that you suggest it at "requested articles" or propose it at the talk page of a related article or WikiProjects. If you do decide to write it yourself, be especially scrupulous about sourcing, and you might want to consider creating it first in a user subpage so you can get feedback on it from the conflict of interest noticeboard before moving it to article space.


 * Thanks for writing, good luck with the article, and it sounds like a fascinating site. Please feel free to stop back by if you have any questions. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:13, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi. Welcome to the drawing board. She would be governed by the notability guidelines for people. There are different factors to look for for people in different careers, so you may want to look through that guideline since she apparently could fall under several (for example, is her work on permanent display in any museums? Has she received any particularly notable honors for her military career?), but one basic rule of thumb that can be used to determine notability for all subjects on Wikipedia is widespread coverage in reliable sources that are intellectually independent from the subject. The dissertation may or may not be useful, depending on whether or not it is published and by whom. Obviously, if a respectable publishing house has decided to release it, that will strongly help lend to a showing of notability.


 * If you feel like she meets the notability guidelines, Help:Starting a new page should give you all the guidance you need to get going, but you might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation.

 * Hi. From what you write here, I'm not sure that this person currently meets our notability guidelines for people. (Most people don't; I don't. :)) Without meeting those guidelines, an article on this person would probably be deleted, either through speedy deletion or after a deletion debate. Also, given your username, it seems like this person may be you. Wikipedia strongly discourages writing autobiographies even if you are notable. If you want to contribute to Wikipedia, helping us write articles, you can put a bit about yourself at your user page. You want to be careful not to go overboard with it, though. Generally, a brief description of who you are may help other contributors collaborate with you here.

ASTRA (Hiphop band)
Astra is the name of a hiphop band started by a group of talented rap artists from south India. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Venu.bharadwaj (talk • contribs) 10:56, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi. The first question is whether or not this band meets the criteria at WP:MUSIC. If they do, and that can be verified through reliable sources that are separate from the subject (not, for example, the band's own website), then an article on them is likely to do well at Wikipedia. If not, it would probably be deleted.


 * If you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline strongly recommends that you do not create or edit the article yourself, but instead consider proposing its creation at requested articles or at a related article or relevant WikiProject. If you do choose to write the article in such a case, you'll want to be particularly careful to approach it neutrally and without undue promotion or "original research"—that is, information that you may know to be true but can't verify through a previously published source.


 * The title you propose is a little more specific than necessary. The words in parentheses are for "disambiguation". They help distinguish multiple articles on the same subject. Since we currently do not have an article called "Astra (band)", there's no reason to create an article called "Astra (hiphop band)".


 * Help:Starting a new page should give you all the guidance you need, but you might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation.

 * Hello, and welcome to the Drawing Board. This particular article would be governed by the notability guidelines on companies. The rule of thumb here is noting whether the company has received significant or widespread coverage in secondary sources that are reliable and independent of the company (excluding company PR releases and information solely available on the company website&mdash;these sources may be used for additional information after notability has been established by secondary sources). All material must be attributable.


 * If you are able to assemble necessary sources to assert notability, you may certainly create such an article, although if you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline strongly recommends that you do not create or edit the article yourself, but instead consider proposing its creation at requested articles or at a related article or relevant WikiProject. If you do choose to write the article in such a case, you'll want to be particularly careful to approach it neutrally and without undue promotion. Words like "one of the best" and "especially well-known for its creativity" would need to be attributed to a secondary source. Wikipedia neutrally describes its subjects, and we do not pass judgment on whether or not an ad agency is good or creative. We only report praise or criticism of a subject that have been made by other sources.


 * Before establishing the article, please search Wikipedia to make sure that an article does not already exist on the subject (possibly under another title). Help:Starting a new page should give you all the guidance you need, but you might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation.

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for writing. Yuwie does sound like an interesting website; however what you have written above comes off a lot more like an advertisement which is something not allowed in the encyclopedia. Articles in our encyclopedia have to written from a neutral point of view giving the facts about a subject, rather than promoting it. Also when creating an article one needs to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. You have included no third party sources to demonstrate that the website meets the Notability (web) criteria.

Your company sounds like a very interesting one, especially after perusing the Lynnhaven River article where it explains how these oysters were in serious decline until recently. Before you start an article you should search the encyclopedia to see if an article on the subject already exists. Then when you do start to write, you need to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. In the case of a company, the relevant guideline can be found at Notability (organizations and companies).

Creativity has always been in Leslie's blood. She has been designing her own clothes and accessories since she was very young. With many high school and college jewelry classes under her belt she decided to put this knowledge and her love of fashion to work. In January 2000 with a passion for fashion, Rock & Roll and precious metal, Femme metale was born. Her focus on high quality, always original designs and exceptional customer service have made Femme metale the leader in “sterling silver jewelry that rocks”.

Femme metale has graced the manicured hands of Christina Aguilera, Kate Moss, Sheryl Crow, Kat Von D, Brittany Murphy, Avril Lavigne, Angelina Jolie, and the Divas of the WWE to name a few. A darling of the press Femme metale has been featured in the following top publications: Teen Vogue, Cosmo Girl, ELLEgirl, Lucky, Cosmopolitan, J-14, Twist, W, Vibe, Lemonade, In Style and many more. Femme metale jewelry has appeared on America's Next Top Model, Miami Ink, L.A. Ink and Dante's Cove.

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for writing! This does sound like a very interesting jewelry line and I see that you have been bold and are working on a version of the page on your user page &mdash; very good! There are some issues that should be addressed, though. First, the tone of the article makes it read like an advertisement, something that is not allowed in the encyclopedia. All articles are required to be written from a neutral point of view. Also, large portions of it seem to have been copied verbatim from the company's website which, unless the website's content is released under a compatible license, is a copyright violation. In general, before you create an article you should search the encyclopedia to be sure that the article doesn't already exist; sometimes an article will have a title that is a variation from what you might think. Then, when you start to write, you need to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. The relevant guideline in this case would be Notability (organizations and companies). Additionally, if you are closely associated with this company, you should read our conflict of interest guideline. Thanks again for writing and I hope that you have found my reply helpful. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 15:09, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Starting an article about a business?
I am trying to learn how it is appropriate to start an article about a business, I notice that there are businesses such as VistaPrint that have articles on wikipedia, but the first attemt I made at trying to construct an article was taken down in 5 minutes. I have read and reread the rules and I have rewritten my article, but I am afraid to post it? Can anyone give me advise on what to do next? If I put it on my user page to try it out will it be deleated?

Thanks, MegaPrint (talk) 15:09, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
 * It might very well be. We have guidelines on user pages that defines what should be included there. I'll take a look at your article to see if I can help you figure out the issue. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:42, 5 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay. The article was deleted as promotional. A glance at the contents doesn't reveal any particular non-neutral language, but it also did not offer much by way of encyclopedic commentary. And there is the problem of your username. Wikipedia strongly discourages conflict of interest editing. We also discourage the use of a company name as a username. The combination of username and lack of encyclopedic detail might lend to an interpretation that you introduced this article in an effort to publicize the company, which is not our purpose here.


 * As you are connected to the company, you should read over the conflict of interest guideline I linked above and also FAQ/Business. Ideally, you should not write an article about your own company, but should instead propose it at requested articles or at the talk page of a related article or WikiProject. If it can be verified through reliable sourcing that the company meets our inclusion guidelines for companies, one of Wikipedia's volunteers may choose to create it. If you do choose to write the article in spite of your connection, please be scrupulously careful with sourcing and tone and avoid including unpublished information. You might even consider creating the article in a user subpage and requesting feedback at the conflict of interest noticeboard. While it's good to be up front about your connection to the company, please also consider changing your username. If it is perceived by the combination of your username and your article contributions that you are here only to promote your business, your account and your IP address could be blocked from editing. It is much better to use a neutral name and to disclose your connection under it. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:54, 5 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! Your article on MegaPrint, Inc was speedily deleted as being "Blatant advertising. Pages which exclusively promote some entity and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic." I also note that the similarly titled Megaprint Inc. article was deleted two months ago for similar reasons, see Articles for deletion/Megaprint Inc.. I don't have access to either of the pages now that they have been deleted, but judging from your user name I will hazard a guess that you have a conflict of interest and the article that you wrote was inappropriate in tone. All articles in the encyclopedia are required to be written in a neutral point of view, in other words while it is okay to write about a company, it is not permitted to promote the company. It is very difficult to write neutrally about subjects we are closely associated, so the practice is discouraged. Also, to explain more generally about writing articles, one needs to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. In this particular case the relevant notability guideline can be found at Notability (organizations and companies). To sum up; if your company is notable someone else will eventually write an article about it, but you should not write it yourself &mdash; especially since doing so can have unintended consequences. I hope that you have found my reply useful. Please feel free to stop back with any other questions you may have. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 16:47, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Schmeeckle Reserve, Stevens Point Wisconsin
Schmeeckle Reserve is s 275 acre natural land area located on the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point. It contains hiking trails, natural land area, a visitor center, multiple different habitats, numberous wildlife and a lake (Lake Joanis). "The Reserve was created to protect and restore native ecological communities, serve as an outdoor classroom for students and teachers, and provide recreational opportunities to all visitors." (Schmeeckle Reserve website, )

History
Before 1956 the current Schmeeckle Reserve was farmland and grazing land. This land, however was not fertile enough to support a large plant population for agriculture due to the rock formations located very near to the surface. The University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point began purchasing this land, which is located to the North of campus, in 1956. Students from the University were called out to fight fires many times. In 1969 a total of 127 acres of land was owned by the university. There was some debate of how to use this land, whether for residence halls, student housing, athletic fields and other options. Finally in 1974 the university proposed to use this land for a natural area and hiking trails.

Lake Joanis was created due to the construction and completion of the Sentry Insurance Complex just north of the Reserve. Soil needed for construction and leveling of the ground underneath the complex was taken from the area currently known as Lake Joanis (spring water filled in the hole left).

Schmeeckle Reserve was established in 1976 with a $250,000 Land and Water Conservation Grant. Also at this time the 50 acres wtih Lake Joanis was included within the reserve. The Visitor Center was created in 1979 after the purchase of a local farmers land and home. The current visitor center is the renevated home. In 1984 when the Conservation Hall of Fame was created, Schmeeckle Reserve was its home. In 1998 the reserve totalled 275 acres with the purchase of 75 acre Berard Oacks area.

Fred Schmeeckle
Fred Schmeeckle, the namesake of the reserve, was a professor from Nebraska who taught at the Stevens Point Normal School. He taught agriculture but was also a supporter of conservation education. In the 1930s the School began teaching conservation courses. This program is now the largest undergraduate natural resesources program of its kind in the nation.

Plant and Animal Life
The habitats within the Reserve are many and varied. Cattails and Marsh areas along with Prairies are common. Pine, Oak and Decidouous forests are also contained within the Reserve. Lake Joanis is an important inclusion as well. wildlife common to the reserve range from frogs, deer, rabbits, squirrels, turtles, geese, ducks, and many other bird and small mammal species.

 * Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. The first and most serious problem with the above (which I've removed) is that the site you've duplicated is copyrighted. Material cannot be copied to Wikipedia from any other source unless it is public domain, licensed compatibly with GFDL or unless we receive explicit permission from the copyright holder through one of the processes set out at WP:Permission. Because we do not require identity verification at account creation, we need this external permission even if the material is placed by the copyright holder him or herself. Because we cannot legally display the text without that on any space in Wikipedia, I've removed it from this page.


 * The second issue concerns sourcing. The text removed would certainly indicate that the individual is notable, but Wikipedia verifies notability for biographies by utilizing reliable "secondary" sources, intellectually independent of the subject. (See the following policies and guidelines for more information on that: WP:BIO, WP:V, WP:RS.) I would imagine that you would be able to assemble newspaper or magazine articles or independent website coverage on this individual. Sources connected to the individual can be used to add detail or substantiate facts, but can't be used to verify notability.


 * An article of this sort would be covered by Wikipedia's guidelines on "biographies of living persons", which in part urges editors to be extremely careful not to include any information that isn't sourced, even if it's true, and also reminds us that biographies particularly must be written from a neutral point of view.


 * If you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline urges great caution, particularly with neutrality and not adding information you know to be true but cannot verify. It is strongly recommended that you do not edit an article on a subject with which you have a conflict of interest but instead consider proposing its creation at requested articles or at a related article or relevant WikiProject.


 * Help:Starting a new page should give you all the guidance you need to get this going, but you might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation.

Lean Engineering - Lean Product Development
An increasing number of industrials groups are looking at so called "Lean Engineering" : some of them are assessing its potential contribution while others have initiated its full size implementation, finally some just "do it" !

But what "Lean Engineering" actually means ? Lean approaches have long been put in place for production (manufacturing, administrative processes, processes...), but when it comes to Engineering and Product Development, different interpretations of Lean can be figured out :


 * One is to consider Engineering as a "Design Factory", where Product Value Stream oriented principles inspired by Lean Manufacturing shall be put in place : reducing stocks (of information), diminishing non-value added tasks (looking for information), better sequencing of tasks for cycle time reduction, etc...


 * Another, inspired by Toyota, is not only to tackle the Product Value Stream but to re-consider some concepts and principles of design : learning first and then develop i.e. go as much in details in up-stream feasibility phases with Set-Based Engineering and knowledge orientated management tools.

This article idea is to gather references and material about Lean Engineering or Lean Product Development, in order to share good practices. —Preceding unsigned comment added by OlivierSchmitt (talk • contribs) 09:22, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi, and welcome to the drawing board. :) My first thought is that it sounds as though some of this material might be appropriate for development at Lean Systems. It seems as though there might be overlap if you created a separate article. But from what you say about your purpose--"in order to share good practices"--I wanted to point out that our purpose here is not share good practices or pass judgment (ourselves) on what practices are good, but simply to note as a reference guide what previously published sources already say about topics. Some potentially useful reading for that, if I'm understanding your purpose correctly, would be NOT, No original research and Wikipedia in brief. In other words, if the (probably fictional) book The Professional Guide to Lean Engineering says, "Practice X is considered effective in lean engineering," then we can indicate as much, but otherwise we should not. It has to be published somewhere else first before we can include it here. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:36, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello, and Welcome to Wikipedia! The answer to your question is it depends. The notability guidelines on companies also covers products; it requires verification through reliable, independent sources. Is there coverage of this product in newspapers, magazines or reliable industry websites that is not directly or indirectly released by the company? (Press releases, for instance, do not count.) If there is such coverage, and its widespread, than the product is notable.

Darragh Schick
Darragh Schick, a worldwide known trumpet player for the Royal Opera House of Yugoslavia, was born on July 16, 1944. She was born in the small town of Yverdon in Switzerland her parents by Hrodohaidis and Ljubomir Schick. Her father, Ljubomir Schick, was once a famous opera singer in the opera house so that is how she got her admittance into this prestigious and renown musical theatre. Her mother was a seamstress and made her clothes for her performances, as well as the rest of the casts'. However, before Darragh was so warmly welcome in the Royal Opera House of Yugoslavia, she was once a member of the infamous group, The Beatles but was kicked out because of her extrodinary talent. Paul was jealous that the other members liked her better than him so he kicked her out. Now, the Royal Opera House of Yugoslavia is where her heart is and they respect her talent and treasure it greatly. After having the honor to play with such outstanding performers, Darragh found love and a bestfriend. She found love in one of her fellow performers, Shawn Fricker (who was rasied in Germany). He played the triangle and it was love at first sight. And she found an unbreakable friendship and bond in a man named John Dimaio, the Opera House's fantastic cymbal clapper. Darragh and Shawn married on her birthday of 1970 and had a child by the name of Acueucyoticihuati Schick; she is named after Darragh's Mexican grandmother whom Darragh loved dearly. After Acueucyoticihuati was born, Darragh and Shawn needed extra money to support the family. John decided to help out and him and Darragh started a business called: DARRAGH'S SPANISH: Learn Spanish Darragh's way for only 3 payments of $27.61. The business took off and now Darragh is a famous trumpet player and a Spanish teacher on 8track. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Darraghbaby (talk • contribs) 5 November 2008

 * Hi. I'm afraid you may have landed in the wrong place for this one. :) The Drawing Board is a forum for discussing articles that you intend to write, to get feedback on them from other editors if you aren't sure that they're appropriate for inclusion or would like tips on how to proceed. If you want to request feedback on the neutrality of an existing article, you might want to ask at the neutral point of view noticeboard or, given your concerns about self-promotion, the conflict of interest noticeboard. In the meantime, I have placed a couple of "maintenance tags" on the article that may draw the attention of other volunteers. You can find a whole compendium of these at Template messages. For this one, I've used advertisement and PrimarySources, to indicate that language may not be encyclopedic and that we need secondary sources to support the article. Perhaps someone will remedy those concerns. Thanks for keeping an eye out for article quality! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:50, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello, and Welcome to Wikipedia! This particular article would be governed by the notability guidelines on web based material. There are some specific factors that might make it appropriate for inclusion, but the general rule of thumb is noting whether the web series has received significant or widespread coverage in secondary sources that are reliable and independent of the company (excluding company PR releases and information solely available on the company website&mdash;these sources may be used for additional information after notability has been established by secondary sources). All material must be attributable.


 * If you are able to assemble necessary sources to assert notability, you may certainly create such an article, although if you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline strongly recommends that you do not create or edit the article yourself, but instead consider proposing its creation at requested articles or at a related article or relevant WikiProject. If you do choose to write the article in such a case, you'll want to be particularly careful to approach it neutrally and without undue promotion.


 * You might look at Your first article and How to write a great article to get some ideas. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation. Good luck, and happy editing. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:47, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello again, thanks for stopping back! I think you have misunderstood the purpose of the Drawing board, the volunteers who reply to posts on this page are here to assist and advise you on how to go about creating a good article that is unlikely to be deleted. This page is unrelated to the deletion process and Deletion review. I linked to the deletion discussion above so you could so that you could see what the previous reasons the page was deleted were so that you could avoid the same mistakes again. You could bring the article to Deletion review and request that the article be restored, but unless the article adheres to the standards I outlined above, it's unlikely to be a successful request. Also, if you are the same person as, then you should know that the use of multiple accounts is discouraged on the project. If I may speculate, I think part of the problem here is that of a Language barrier &mdash; it may be the case that you are having difficulty in understanding our policies. Since you have stated on your user talk page that you are from Iran, you might find it easier to start off editing on the Persian language version of Wikipedia where you will be better able to read and understand the policies. Thanks for writing again and I hope I have helped you better this time. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 12:15, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, I could just send you off to request un-deletion; but it would be like sending a "lamb to the slaughter" because your request would just fail. Don't you think it would be a better idea to address the issues that got the article deleted in the first place?


 * The article has been deleted twice in the past for the same reason, that it was, "An article about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant". In other words you merely described the website without explaining just what about it makes it important enough to merit an encyclopedia article. The article has to explicitly state what makes the subject important, something like, "This website won the XYZ award for best website". Then you have to prove that statement by showing that third parties have taken note of the website; you do this by providing citations from reliable sources.


 * I'm not just linking all those words for fun, they're links to the actual policies and guidelines you need to follow to make it so that your article won't be deleted. You need to click on those links and read what they have to say, then apply them to the article. If you follow those rules, then you won't even have to ask for un-deletion because the revamped article will be able to stand on its own.


 * If you would like, I can create a subpage of your userpage that you can use work on the article in draft form without worrying that it will be deleted. When (and if) it's ready, we can move it into the main article space. Let me know if you would be interested in this.


 * I hope this helps. Let me know if I may be of any more assistance. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 12:23, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

(maybe they don't answer your mail, and still slow in MSN , one of them is ScoOobY : Email removed for privacy ) go and research ... if admin before delete research about that, i were acquiescent , but google is not good reason for any thing , that's a program writed by people like this site , but just that's too complete , also i like Live.com more than any search program —Preceding unsigned comment added by DeadManN (talk • contribs) 21:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The website itself, its promotional material, etc. cannot be used to establish notability because it is what we call a primary source. What is needed are third parties who are not associated with the subject who have written about it in published reliable sources such as a newspapers or magazines. (Primary sources, however, may be used to add information to an article that has already had its notability established through secondary sources.) Regarding your suggestion to interview users of the site, that would not be allowed under any circumstances because Wikipedia has a strict policy prohibiting original research. You also seem to be operating under the misapprehension that we will do this fact-checking for you; this is not the case. We are here to advise you on how to write a good article, not to do it for you. In all honesty, I think you would find yourself having a much easier time working in your native language because you seem to not be understanding the rules I have explained and linked to several times before. The Persian Wikipedia is not a sandbox for kids or something, rather it is a fully functional encyclopedia just like this English language one only that one is written in your native tongue. You are obviously a well-educated and intelligent person (your English is much better than my non-existent Persian!) and I am sure they could use your help in creating a truly great encyclopedia for the free use of all Persian speakers. It's a very worthy goal well worth your consideration. Once again, I hope you have found my reply helpful. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 23:38, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

leave this not important, i leave writing some thing in here ... here's not for me ... or who one like me ... also i forget , and i don't want left my time here for several hours to thinking and write some thing that some one will delete that ... bye mate —Preceding unsigned comment added by DeadManN (talk • contribs) 05:47, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Aberdare Grasshoppers Junior Football Club
Situated in the Cynon Valley, South Wales, the Club was founded in 1997 by a group of parents who decided that they wanted their children to play football, hence the formation of the Grasshoppers.

Amongst the founder members was Mark Barnes who became Chairman and who directed the Club in it's aims for a total of 8 years before he stepped down allowing Chris Welch to take over the reigns in 2006.

It was under Mark's leadership that the Grasshoppers started with one football team, and throughout subsequent years the Club has continually increased in players, coaches and teams. Treasurer for 10 years was Huw Bond who stepped down allowing Steve Pearce to have the honour of becoming Treasurer, Steve also holds this position with ENTO Aberaman Athletic AFC. Aberaman FC was founded in 1892 and was one of the founder members of the Welsh League in 1902-03. Like many clubs in the late 1800's their early history is lost in the mist of time. It would be true to say that they established themselves as one of the best sides in the valley earlier on. For instant recognition regarding their early status is shown by stark statistic that in 1902-03 season they were finalists in the Welsh Cup. 10 years later (1912-13) they were finalists in the Welsh Amateur Cup. They won the South Wales and Monmouthshire Senior Cup in 1902-03 and in the 1911-12 and 1912-13 seasons they were winners of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Amateur Cup. In 2006, a memorandum of understanding was made between both Aberaman and the Grasshoppers for the Grasshoppers to become the official feeder club to Aberaman, as a result the oldest team each season within the Grasshoppers club automatically become Aberaman players. This is normally an U16 team and when players reach the age of 16 within the season, providing they are good enough, they could be selected by the team management of the senior team. In conjunction with the memorandum of understanding, the Grasshoppers were approached by ENTO for a 3 year sponsorship to which the Club would for the period of the sponsorship be known as ENTO Aberdare Grasshoppers, it also involved the purchase of new kit to follow in the fashion of Aberaman AFC, Huw Bond raised his concerns of the change of colours from the red/green style to royal blue stating that “it was selling the soul of the Club”. This deal expires in the summer of 2009.

Also in 2006 the Grasshoppers progressed to entering an all girls team into the South Wales Girls Football League. This was the first for any Club situated within the Cynon Valley to run an all girls team and at present the club runs both under 16 and under 14 all girls teams, with plans to run a under 12 team in the season 2009 - 2010. Instrumental in setting up the Girls division of the Club was Lorraine Olson, this section of the Club has further been enhanced by fellow coaches Alison Lloyd and Gareth Williams.

Historically, and since the Grasshoppers conception, Club meetings were held in the Seren Y Bore in Aberdare once a month, but since August 2008 the Grasshoppers utilise Aberamans AFC’s Clubhouse. Meetings are still once a month, with the yearly AGM held in June for the election of committee officers. The Club follows a strict agenda for meetings to ensure that all represented teams within the Club are considered and concerns raised. At each meeting football training videos are shown to further enhance Coaches skills and further their development. Meetings are not strictly business orientated by also a social event to have a drink, unwind and discuss issues with coaches that train and play on different days to each other.

The Grasshoppers in 2008 were fortunate to obtain major sponsorship(s) from TYCON Civil Engineering and Underwood Insurance Services Ltd, these sponsorship(s) were matched almost pound for pound by Sportsmatch Cymru Wales. Gallery Loft Conversions also came forward to sponsor a junior team. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Exemption (talk • contribs) 15:29, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! The Aberdare Grasshoppers certainly do sound like an interesting organization. Before you start your first article there are a few things that you should do. First you should search to be sure we don't already have an article on the subject. Sometimes an article's title may not be what you first expect it to be, so it's a good idea to also search related topics; the subject may even be included as part of a larger article that you can expand. When you actually start to write the article, you need to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. The relevant guideline in this case would be Notability (organizations and companies). Thanks for writing and if you need any more help or advice, please feel free to stop back. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 21:16, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for writing! I see that you have been bold and created the Lexi Blade article already, very good! I have corrected the article's capitalization error for you by moving it. Since you came for help, I'm sure that you're aware that the article has some serious deficiencies in content, or to be more blunt &mdash; it has no content at all and is in danger of being speedily deleted because of that. From your post above I'm lead to believe that you would like someone else to write the article for you, the correct forum for that would be requested articles; but they do have a backlog there. The Drawing board is here to help you to write a good article, so I'm going to write some advice on what you can do with the article you've started. Usually before writing an article you should search to see if the encyclopedia doesn't already have an article on the subject. Often an article may be under a different title than you expect it to be, so it is a good idea to search related topics as well. Sometimes you might find the subject addressed as part of another article that you can then expand. You've already created this article and it doesn't seem to be a duplicate as far as I can tell, so next on to what to do with it now. You need to be sure to establish the subject's notability in the article by verifying the information with citations to reliable sources, preferably by using footnotes. Articles that don't establish their subject's notability may be deleted. The relevant guideline in this case would be Notability (people) which has a special section on Pornographic actors. For general tips on the actual mechanics of writing an article, you might want to have a look at our tutorial. I hope my response has helped you, please feel free to stop back if you have any more questions or need any more help. &mdash;Elipongo (Talk contribs) 21:43, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Sir James Drake, Pioneer of the National UK Motorway Network
With the forthcoming 50th anniversary of the Preston By-pass (5th December 2008), the first length of motorway in the UK, it seems appropriate to recognise the achievement of this Lancashire civil engineer. He largely single handledy persuaded the Ministry of Transport to back the construction of a new type of road around Preston and to back this up with a succession of schemes that would eventually link to form the longest motorway in the country. In the 1930s Lancashire County Council saw that recent new highway schemes had significant accident records, often due to unregulated exit and entry onto the new roads, vehicle collisions from traffic crossing the carriageway or the new roads being occupied by traffic travelling at vastly different speeds. These situations all led to high accident rates.

Traffic congestion, quality of life and travelling time through and across Preston was proving unacceptable due to a combination of north/south traffic on the A6, east/west traffic on the A59, and holiday traffic to and from Blackpool and the Lake District. This meant that Preston was suffering from the effects of increased car ownership and usage in the UK and the switch of freight traffic from rail to road.

His contribution to Lancashire, the north west of England and to the development of the national motorway network seems to currently be largely unrecognised by Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by John Gatheral (talk • contribs) 23:34, 8 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, and welcome to wikipedia. The first thing I would point out is that Wikipedia is not a place to recognize people who have not been written about by reliable sources. Take a look at the both the general notability guideline and the guideline on individual notability. Another recommendation I would give is most of what you have written so far gives the background on the road system, and doesn't specify what his contributions were. -Optigan13 (talk) 07:32, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments and explanation - this is all very new to me. The only source that I have found up to now was in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography website where he has a fairly lengthy entry, perhaps a thousand words. I wanted, in the first instance, to submit something to Wikipedia to better understand the procedures, rather than develop a full entry, only to find that it would not be possible to post on the site. I obviously need to gather material, images etc and knock it all into shape, my aim is to try to do this over the next few weeks. Any other tips or hints would be most welcome. —Preceding unsigned comment added by John Gatheral (talk • contribs) 10:03, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

James Drake (1907–1989) was born on 27 July 1907 in Burnley, Lancashire. He was educated at Accrington Grammar School and at the Victoria University of Manchester, where he graduated in 1927 with a first class honours degree, a BSc in Civil Engineering. He passed the professional examinations of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) in April 1931, was accepted as an Associate Member in 1933 and as a full Member in 1943. He married Kathleen Shaw in July 1937 and they had two daughters.

He first worked for Stockport County Borough Council from 1927 to 1930, from where he joined Bootle County Borough Council, working there until 1937. He moved to Blackpool County Borough Council, initially as Deputy Engineer and Surveyor and in 1938 he took up the post of Chief Engineer and Surveyor at Blackpool.

In his early working life James Drake worked on the design and delivery of a wide variety of municipal engineering projects; an eighteen hole golf course; a sports stadium; housing estates; libraries; schools; sea defences; sewerage systems; Britain's first multi-storey car park; and a 7 mile ring road. In the mid and latter stages of his career, highway schemes were to play an increasingly significant role in his portfolio of work and he was to play a lead role in the development of a national strategic road network.

In 1936 the first Trunk Roads Act saw central government become involved in road building for the first time. In the same year the Institution of Highway Engineers published a plan for nearly 3,000 miles of motorways in the UK. James Drake viewed Germany's autobahns in 1937 with the County Surveyors' Society, which published its own plans for 1,000 miles of motorway in Britain in 1938. James Drake became a committed proponent for the construction and development of a motorway network for speed, safety and improved communications and commerce. —Preceding unsigned comment added by John Gatheral (talk • contribs) 22:38, 9 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. ODNB is certainly a good step towards establishing notability. Have you had any luck locating additional sources? A sometimes gold-mine for me is google books. There are some promising leads there for this: see here. If I were writing this article, I'd be very pleased to find material like this. (If you aren't familiar with google books, you can find all the information you need to cite them by pressing "more about this book" to the side. I might use that book, for instance, by writing, "James Drake was a leader in the effort to create a national (what? motorway system?) in England." . In a reference section, that footnote will look like this:

""
 * I used a handy citation template, Template:Cite book to format it. Quotations are optional and should be limited in brief sources in order to comply with our non-free content criteria. We have other templates for journals or websites or newspapers. You can read more about that at Citing sources.


 * Also potentially useful here is google news, though with the older biographies they can be limited. Sadly, most older archived news stories are tucked behind pay walls. :/ (You can still use them if you can reference them, though we prefer freely available sources so any reader can verify.


 * With a few sources, particularly sources that indicate as clearly as that one "This gentleman was important", your article should be secure. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi, and Welcome to Wikipedia! :) In order to create an article about that person, you'll need to be able to assert notability per Wikipedia's notability guidelines on biographies, which will mean utilizing reliable secondary sources, like newspaper articles. The subject's own websites are not usable for this purpose, although they can be used to add detail to an article. An article of this sort would be covered by Wikipedia's guidelines on "biographies of living persons", which in part urges editors to be extremely careful not to include any information that isn't sourced, even if it's true, and also reminds us that biographies particularly must be written from a neutral point of view.


 * If you are able to assemble necessary sources and if your subject meets the notability requirements, you may choose to create the article yourself, although if you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline urges great caution, particularly with neutrality and not adding information you know to be true but cannot verify. It is strongly recommended that you do not edit an article on a subject with which you have a conflict of interest but instead consider proposing its creation at requested articles or at a related article or relevant WikiProject.


 * Help:Starting a new page should give you all the guidance you need, but you might also look at Your first article and How to write a great article. Please consider taking a tour through the Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:33, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Wholesale Fashion Square
About Wholesale Fashion Square Wholesale Fashion Square is one of the biggest clothing and apparel wholesale distributors in Los Angeles, CA. We are in business since 2006. Wholesale Fashion Square started as a brick and mortar store smaller than it is now and grew faster in barely two (2) years. Now, we own a huge warehouse in Los Angeles, CA, a brick and mortar store and an online store that caters to hundreds of loyal domestic and overseas clothing retailers worldwide. Our success is due to many factors. Perseverance is one, hard word, excellent business model, quality and great pricing on top of all, excellent customer service. Because of our tireless effort in finding the best deal in wholesale clothing and apparel inventory, we have realized that dealing directly with direct importers and buying in the traditional wholesale pricing, we will not be as competitive as we are now. We started to source out for closeout inventory from big liquidators, business that are folding, and those that directly from manufacturing companies and importers but buying in bulk for a price of hundreds of thousand dollars per shipment. The process allows us to sell the merchandise in a much lower price than the industry standard. Per package price is a lot lower than most which is about 60% - 80% lower than retail. And if you’re lucky, you can get an even lower price up to 95% off from their clearance rack which runs all year long. On top of that, there is no minimum order allowing the smallest clothing retailer to afford to buy inventory to resell. If you purchase an item of $200 and up, you even get free shipping to continental US. For those overseas buyers, we also give shipping price break. Because of this, the business has evolved and we now become one of the biggest suppliers in and around the country as well as overseas for all kinds of wholesale clothing and apparel including jewelry and fashion accessories. The success of the business is not just about the price, it is also about the quality of the merchandise they sell. Not because we are buying closeout and liquidated inventory, we settle for just about anything. One of the key successes to our business is buying high quality merchandise in bulk for a lot less passing the savings to the retailers. Lastly, our customer service is superb second to none. Among the women’s clothing and apparel we sell are jeans, tops, plus size, dress, active wear, jewelry, costume jewelry, skirts sweaters, jackets, pants and some men’s clothing as well. We have about 10,000 different items, styles, colors and sizes to choose from. The shipping process is also seamless as you can track your order as soon as you get your order confirmation. And to make ordering to us a lot easier, we accept all kinds of payment from credit card, PayPal, corporate and personal checks, bank wire transfer, cashier’s check and money order. Wholesale Fashion Square, is definitely the best supplier of wholesale women’s clothing and apparel that offers deeply discounted prices affordable to all!

 * Hi. I see that this one has already been deleted once as overly promotional, and I'm very much afraid that any article along these lines would be as well. Articles on Wikipedia must be written neutrally—we wouldn't refer to your "excellent customer service", for instance, unless a reliable source had done so first, and then we would attribute it: "In its profile of the company, the LA Shopping Guide praised the "excellent customer service". . There are many such points of concern in the above text: "seamless" shipping processes, "superb" customer service, "tireless" efforts. Much of this language is not neutral. We also wouldn't write the article in first person, which brings me to another problem: your evident connection to the subject.


 * Wikipedia has developed guidelines to help people who are closely connected to a subject see how they can best contribute to it. These are located here. Also of use is our Business FAQ. Essentially, they emphasize the same rules to which all contributors must adhere: neutrality, good sourcing and avoidance of including unpublished information or personal observations. But if you have a conflict, it is particularly important that you adhere to these policies in order to make it clear that you are not attempting to use Wikipedia as a forum to advertise your business. We do not accept advertisements on Wikipedia. Rather, we're here to collect previously published information about notable topics.


 * The final point to consider here is precisely that: the notability of this company. We have specific notability guidelines; the ones on companies & organizations can be found here. In order for this article to survive the speedy deletion process, you would want to neutrally assert what makes it significant or important. In order to secure it, you would want to verify how it meets that notability guideline with reliable sources that are separate and distinct from the subject. PR releases and the company's own websites cannot be used for this purpose. What we look for here are things like newspaper articles, magazine profiles, references at reliable industry websites. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:51, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. With respect to the article I would recommend against creating the article unless you can satisfy the general WP:Notability guidelines which require significant coverage by at least two reliable sources.

NEW IDEA
We need to think outside of the box, people! Think different. One kid in my 7th grade wrting class (when I was young)wanted to do a topic on opinions. I loved this idea, so I said seach on AWikipedoa, it has everything. He didn;t find anything and instead left a comment, make an opinion page. They came out with a page about how opinions are formulated but not actual opinions, I would like to do a page of polls that people have voted on and add a bit on how opinions are fromulated —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sporty95 (talk • contribs) 19:31, November 11, 2008


 * Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. The first thing I would recommend is that you take a look at What Wikipedia is not. Wikipedia is not a place to publish original thought or research, nor is it a venue for advocacy of a particular topic. While wikipedians have performed informal polls in the past on various topics, it is generally believed that polling is not a substitute for discussion and polls are rarely held anymore. -Optigan13 (talk) 07:44, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

The Whiskey Painters of America: A Short Brush With Alcohol
Greetings. An article on the WPA would be my first contribution to Wikipedia. I have done extensive research on the society and interviewed the 2003 president. The Whiskey Painters was started in 1951 by a group of hard drinking engineers and artisans. They carried miniature palettes and used cocktails as the agent. Their colllections are sought after and must meet demanding requirements. The membership is limited to 150 watertcolor artists. What do you think? Checkpoint one four (talk) 00:40, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I would recommend you check out Your first article if you haven't already. If you have research on the material make sure it is from reliable sources like newspapers, published books, etc. Unfortunately we can't use interviews you've conducted, since it's original research. -Optigan13 (talk) 07:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello Optigan 13, regarding the article suggestion on Whiskey Painters, an article was published in 2003 by me on the society in Akron Life and Leisure magazine and its details cited to me in the article by the last living founding member plus it is profiled on the web. Would this qualify as affirmation? Thanks — Preceding text originally posted&#32;on User:Optigan13&#32;([//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Optigan13&diff=prev&oldid=251621386 diff])&#32;by Checkpoint one four (talk&sdot;contribs)&#32;13:20, November 13, 2008 (UTC)


 * Ok, that's different than what I normally think of when I hear "I interviewed them", at least on Wikipedia, since your interview was actually published by what I'm assuming is a magazine with some kind of reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. As long as the website you're referring to isn't the same magazine's website, the whiskey painter's website, or your own personal website, and is another reputable source that should be enough to satisfy the general WP:Notability and more specific WP:ORG guidelines for what is accepted. The two source requirement is so that we aren't just rehashing a single source's material in a different venue. The concern with all of that is the idea that if you do put this article up, and it satisfies the notability requirements and is not deleted, that if someone else wanted to come along and verify some of the more questionable facts and figures they could from the same sources you provided. -Optigan13 (talk) 10:04, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for replying Optigan 13, I do believe I'll take up the task as I'm sure it meets notability. Checkpoint one four (talk) 23:34, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Free Market Economy in Afghanistan

 * Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. While you do have a well referenced page there is one big problems I can see. While you do reference and use several reliable sources, you then proceed to synthesize that material to make certain assertions of your own, which we cannot accept. While perfectly valid for an academic work, we can not use it. I would recommend reposting this material in your personal sandbox (located at Special:MyPage/Sandbox); adding some basic wikipedia formatting; removing the synthesis material; and then posting the new page at somewhere which corresponds to the correct naming guideline. Consider how your work would fit into the Economy of Afghanistan which has the broader scope. I would then work with someone from WikiProject Afghanistan or WikiProject Economics to further develop the article. -Optigan13 (talk) 00:56, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Pagoo Inc.
Pagoo Inc is a computer-linked telephone answering service corporation based in Red Wood Shores, California. I read about it in an article printed in Smart Computing in Plain English magazine eight years ago.

How it functions is this: When an individual (or company) has dial-up computer service his telphone line is in use when he/she is on line. Subscribers to Pagoo register their personal data and contact their telephone server to request the "call forward when busy" service. When incoming calls are received, the calls are forwarded to Pagoo's toll free 800 telephone line for recording. After the recording is complete, the subscriber receives an audible tone on their computer to advise him/her that a message has been recorded and are then able to click on the Pagoo icon to hear it. This service is provided for a token monthly fee. - I recently had need to send a "snail mail" to Pagoo and from my experience with Wikipedia, conducted an address search on your website. There was nothing for the company name, Pagoo, in either the case sensitive search or in an alpha search for pending articles. However, I was able to locate the company and obtain it's address by Googling it. 209.244.43.213 (talk) 04:13, 15 November 2008 (UTC) Please add this name to your database. Thank you in advance.


 * Hello, and welcome to wikipedia. While we do have articles on several companies, we need at least two sources to right an article about a given subject, as we are not a business directory.

The Five Bases Of Love
'''Not too long ago my good friend and I were discussing what these so called bases of love are and we came to the conclusion that:

1st base = Kissing, hugs, that sort of stuff.

2nd base = Fingering and giving handjobs (basically anything you do with your hands).

3rd base = Cunt licking, blowjobs (obviously, things you do with your mouth).

and of course:

4th base = SEX (vaginal).'''

5th base = Anal sex (Receive your Brown Badge) (Clearly involves your arse)

so can gays not love if they cant do 4th base? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Piawusten (talk • contribs) 15:56, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi and welcome to wikipedia. Do you have any sources that could be used to verify this information? Otherwise we cannot accept it because it would fail to pass our general notability guidelines. Also it has some overly promotional language such as "spreading the flame further". I would recommend reading WP:Business' FAQ. -Optigan13 (talk) 02:12, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Project Management Simulator
Project Management Simulation is used in project management training programs. Flight simulators are used to train pilots. Similarly, project simulators are used to train project managers. Project management simulation is a group exercise. The computer-based simulation is an interactive learning activity.

During couple of hours at a time, a project management simulator confronts learners with the situations and problems that arise in every project. Learners see the consequences of the decisions they make. They can track the evolution of the project parameters: scope, costs, schedule, quality as well as human factors. The simulation provides an opportunity for learners to solve typical project problems, to make mistakes and analyze them. The mistakes will be avoided in the real work.

Pedagogic goals of project management simulation can be : to teach the learner how

to plan resources in a project; to use project management tools; to control the progress of a project; to make team decisions under stress; to have the proper reactions in typical situations of project management.

There are different types of support: from paper materials to computer-based multimedia environment. Examples of project management simulators: Celemi, Clarrus, Fissure, ITMG2, PM Simulation, SimulTrain, SMG, SkillSoft, Synergest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kokcharov (talk • contribs) 10:29, 18 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I see that you've already created this article. However, your article (and the above) lack reliable sources to verify notability. The best sources in such a case are likely to be newspaper articles, magazines or respected industry websites.

 * Hello again, I've already responded to your first post above. Unfortunately your article does not meet out notability guidelines for web content. A further explanation is that for a youtube channel the group has a rather low number of views so far. While that in and of itself isn't a criteria for inclusion, it is a somewhat reliable indicator. If I am incorrect and this group has had either: a) multiple non-trivial works written about it; b) has won major awards from a respected organization or; c) has been distributed via a medium which is both respected and independent of the creators (note that YouTube is specifically mentioned as not fulfilling this criteria). Then please provide links to any sources that prove that this group is notable. If you do not and try to create this article, then it is likely to be deleted either through the articles for deletion process, or as a speedy deletion (most likely for being blatant advertising, or for not asserting its notability). -Optigan13 (talk) 06:32, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Please do your own homework. Welcome to the Wikipedia Drawing board. Your question appears to be a homework question.

Michael Iver Peterson murder trial
Shaibani was an expert witness in the Michael Peterson (author) murder trial in Durham County, North Carolina. During the trial he was accused of perjury on September 26, 2003; specifically his affiliation with Temple University was questioned. David Rudolf produced two letters. One was dated September 27, 2001, and addressed to a Washington defense lawyer from Edward T. Gawlinski, chairman of Temple's physics department. The letter, Rudolf said, was addressing Shaibani's testimony as an expert prosecution witness in a murder trial. "Any claim by Mr. Shaibani that he is now a member of, or even affiliated with, the Temple University Department of Physics is fraudulent," read a Sept. 27, 2001, letter from Edward Gawlinski, then chair of the Temple University physics department. David Rudolf then produced a letter dated September 25, 2003, from Virginia L. Flick, Temple's associate university counsel, "Any current representation that Mr. Shaibani is employed by or affiliated with Temple University is simply untrue." Judge Orlando Hudson Jr., ruled that Shaibani had committed perjury and instructed the jury to disregard everything the witness had said. The docket (court) number of the Michael Iver Peterson murder trial is, 01 CRS 24821.

David Aesoph murder trial
Shaibani was an expert witness in the David Aesoph murder trial in South Dakota. David Aesoph was convicted of first degree murder on October 5, 2000, for the murder of his wife Tania.

David Aesoph, Habeas Corpus Appeal
Aesoph filed a habeas appeal contesting the credibility of Shaibani. A hearing was held on September 9, 2004, in circuit court on habeas corpus petition. The circuit court denied Aesoph's request for habeas relief on September 6, 2006, as well as his motion for a certificate of probable cause. The S.D. Supreme Court also denied Aesoph's motion for a certificate of probable cause, determining that an appealable issue does not exist. It was found that Dr. Saami Shaibani was, in fact, appointed as Clinical Associate Professor in the Physics Department on July 25, 1995 by Carolyn T. Adams, then Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Temple.

Testimony of Temple University Associate University Counsel, Virginia L. Flick
On September 9, 2004, Temple University Associate University Counsel, Virginia L. Flick, testified that she had found additional documents in 2004 which related to Shaibani’s affiliation with Temple University. Flick also indicated that she had discovered a July 25, 1995 appointment letter for Dr. Shaibani at Temple, as well as a September 27, 2001 letter written by Dr. Edward Gawlinski, Chairman of the Physics Department, which incorrectly stated that Shaibani had never been a Clinical Associate Professor of Physics at Temple University. Flick’s testimony lends credibility to Shaibani’s testimony at Aesoph’s trial. .

Any advice on this article would be helpful. Here is the AfD page on the first version of this article. I think notablity is established, but would like some help with this article. Thanks. Feel free to paste comments here or on my talk page.(Jvfulcher (talk) 21:53, 28 November 2008 (UTC))

 * There are still problems with WP:OR. The first two paragraphs might be okay; but there isn't any good reason to have separate sections on all those different murder trials.  The Aesop thing is based entirely on primary sources -- see WP:PRIMARY.  There's no justification for including images of private correspondence (which in any event does not meet WP:RS).  Since my guess is that your motivation for writing this article is precisely to use that stuff to try to repair Shaibani's credibility, I wonder how interested you are going to be in an article that sticks to what has been written about him in the sources that will be accepted by others here as uncontroversially satisfying WP:RS. Remember that if an article is re-created and not deleted, you will not be able to control how others will edit it WP:OWN. 86.25.195.253 (talk) 17:33, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
