How come you report how many Muslims are in the world and not Christians???184.9.151.177 (talk) 03:41, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
You report 1.6 billion Muslims in the world. I had to visit another page to find out how many Christians are in the world. The site I visited said there were 2.18 billion Christians in the world. I always refer other people to Wikipedia for answers. I am at a loss as to this ommission at Wikipedia, unless I'm not asking the question correctly. Thanks for your wonderful site. I use it all the time. Jo Ellen

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/South African Legion of Military Veterans
Could you please explain why the article is not "sufficiently notable", after all, being both a founder member of an international organisation and the oldest such organisation in South Africa, surely that is notable enough? As to their being sufficient notation, could you give an example of what would suffice? I have given references to almost every sentence and used recognised historical sources. Please indicate if you insist only on American sources or precisely what is needed?

 * 1) Wikipedia cannot be a source. 2) "being both a founder member of an international organisation and the oldest such organisation in South Africa, surely that is notable enough?" Give independent sources which says that. If it is notable, then there will be more than one source on it. 3) Please use a consistent format when citing (I have fixed it now) 4) If it is not notable, it will never make it on Wikipedia, no matter how much you try. We do not insist on anything. 5) I have found some so-so sources, try adding them on. Kinkreet~&#9829;moshi moshi&#9829;~ 11:51, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

free advertising
We want to post an article about our company which isn't very noteworthy or groundbreaking. Basically we just want to use Wikipedia as advertising and get out information about our small, insignificant company. How do we do this? What are the loop holes? And are there any examples I can copy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.131.156.49 (talk) 15:47, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Nullspeeds in General Relativity
"Most people would be very happy to have such a comprehensive, individual explanation of a decision." Why do you group me with most people? I am noted as working to further General Relativity.

I see my name is not attached; I am Norman Albers...MY BROTHER is STEVE ALBERS, and I had mentioned his name as having helped gather ref's, but he is a professional meteorologist. Have sold his soul, he asked that his name be removed. TOO BAD. Boyd also got cold feet. This is an ugly experience, at first. This morning, tho, I realized that in offering this physics, I stand alone but shoulder to shoulder with Albert Einstein. This leaves me feeling strong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ncutssss (talk • contribs) 18:08, 9 May 2012 (UTC) unsigned not NORMAN ALBERS

Article for creation Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Dennis Moody
I received a message stating this article no longer had copyright issues, but needed references. These have been included. What is the current status of this article?

Jamesmulder (talk) 20:37, 9 May 2012 (UTC)


 * The article still needs work, in my opinion. Of the three links provided, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hal_Davis can't be used as a reference as you're using Wikipedia to source itself (if there's useful info on Hal Davis' page, find out where the author of *that* page got the data and cite that directly, so that this is not merely Wikipedia citing itself), I find nothing on sonorarecorders.com and www.allmusic.com/artist/dennis-moody-p106972/credits is just a discography with little else in the way of biographical info. A biography needs to be sourced more carefully and meticulously than other Wikipedia articles as the reputation of a living person is at stake.
 * The page is also just a single paragraph (so a bit of a stub... which needs to be expanded) and lacks even the most rudimentary formatting (for instance, Phantom of the Opera gives a pretty blue link to Phantom of the Opera, a blank line gives a new paragraph, images need to be under a free license and uploaded to this site (or Wikimedia Commons) instead of being posted as off-site links. If you're new to Wikipedia, the "Help" link on the left-hand sidebar should give information on some of the codes you can use to format text and make links to other pages. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 20:09, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
