Answer for you on my talk page. --mav 21:39 26 Jul 2003 (UTC)

1. On her home page, Wendy McElroy says "At first, I assumed that my unswerving defense of 'Second Amendment rights' would automatically endear me to all other pro-gun advocates....
2. In an interview, in response to a question about mainstream politics, she talked about Republicans and Democrats...
3. Canadians, and people writing about Canadians on wikipedia, always give the nationality, for obvious reasons.

Two minor unrelated points: please can you add items to the bottom of talk pages, rather than the top. An easy way to sign is to type three tildes, ~~~, which the software will convert. A fourth tilde adds the date and time. Jim

Unverified images

Hi! Thanks for uploading Image:Africa w seychelles.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. --Ricky81682 (talk) 00:49, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)

Another taggless image: Image:Riemann.gif. I've tagged it as {{unverified}} for now. Same rules as above apply. If you want me to tag it leave me a message on my user page! Thanks --MaxPower 15:07, 2005 Jan 11 (UTC)

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Proposed deletion of Open system (systems theory)

The article Open system (systems theory) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nonsense WP:SYNTH essay, appears to be a mishmash of concepts all thrown together from different fields with no secondary sources relating them, amateurish misunderstandings of thermodynamics

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. - car chasm (talk) 00:46, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
