Barnstar? Really? Cool. Here's where I put them all (the one)

		The College football Barnstar
		For all you do to support college football and for never getting anything more than light applause, I award to the entire Wikipedia:WikiProject Marching band the College football barnstar. College football would not be the same without you.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:35, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Robert W. Smith

Thank you for your effort to cleanup this article. However, upon closer review, Activemusician.com cannot be used as a source for this article, since all it does is mirror the Wikipedia article. For greater explanation, please see Talk:Robert W. Smith. If you can find any other sources that can verify the statements in the article, please use those instead. Again, thank you for your work on Robert W. Smith. -- Johnny06man 16:55, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Troy

No problem, regarding reverting that Troy "controversy". I haven't been active on the article lately, but I edited it a bit when it was back in its stub stage and its still on my watchlist. I grew up in southeast Alabama and both my parents are Troy alumni, so there's a bit of a connection there for me. AUTiger » talk 03:05, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

KKPsi Honoraries

Even if Chuck Norris was inducted at Gamma, he'd have to be registered with Nationals, and he's not on the prominent members list. We had the same issue with Dave Chappelle being voted in by a chapter (Central State) but not confirmed. — BrotherFlounder 03:15, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I am willing to accept your word on Chuck Norris, but Wikipedia demands a reliable published source. I'm not sure how one could be found in this instance. Cmadler 15:59, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I suggest that you add an image of his shingle to the article, in the prominent members section. (The article does need more images, after all!) As a side notes, do you know that this is THE Chuck Norris, as opposed to some student who happens to have the same name (it does happen), and also, how did you get a picture of his shingle? Cmadler 10:29, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I undid your edit from August 26 that again added Chuck Norris to the Prominent Members section of the article. Reiterating what Cmadler said, I think we would all be willing to take your word for it, but until it is cited from a reliable source, it can't be in the article.

Thanks for signing up, and now it is official at Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/San Jose Sharks task force. Thanks LegoK^ontribsT^alkM 04:22, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

You are not an idiot

A whole bunch of us trying to get vandals.... we stumble over each other all the time... I lost count how many times I have made a mess ;-) So no worries and keep having fun stomping on vandals. ;-) --CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 17:42, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Accusation of vandalism

Regarding this edit, it was not vandalism as you accuse in this edit summary. I noticed the category redlinks and removed them as a courtesy, thinking that the categories had been deleted or had never been created. This is not an uncommon practice here as Wikipedia even has bots to perform such housekeeping. As far as I know, there is no Wikipedia policy that prohibits you from including your user page in non-existent categories, so the fact that you reverted my edit is fine. The fact that you accused me of vandalism is not. Wikipedia is a community and things like that are divisive. Please read WP:VANDAL to understand what vandalism is. Also read WP:AGF since assuming good faith is so important to the project. Thank you and I look forward to working with you on WP:Marching band and other areas of Wikipedia. →Wordbuilder (talk) 20:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't make a habit out of going into other peoples' houses and "fixing" things such as lining up their wall art or dusting their mantle. Therefore, I find someone coming into my User Page, this tiny corner of Wikipedia that I call my home, and "fixing" things up rather vandalistic. Fliry Vorru (talk) 21:35, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I guess that's the difference between you and me. If I'm at someone's house and the door to their fridge doesn't quite shut or a glass is precariously near the edge of a table or the faucet didn't get completely shut off and I happen by, I'll take a moment to help out. So far, no one has filed charges with the authorities, accusing me of vandalizing their property.

While you apparently still fail to understand or choose to ignore WP:VANDAL and WP:AGF, I'll steer clear of your little corner of Wikipedia. →Wordbuilder (talk) 21:58, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and reporting editors for non-vandalism doesn't make their "Wikipedia life hellish", it just makes admins wonder what you're getting so worked up about. →Wordbuilder (talk) 22:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your opinions and advice. Enjoy your Wikipedia and have a nice day. Fliry Vorru (talk) 01:07, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

{{Marching-band-stub}}

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This is partly in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and partly so that those who regularly deal with stub articles know what stub types are likely to need re-sorting soon. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 04:16, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:2005 Atlantic hurricane season.ogg

Thanks for uploading Image:2005 Atlantic hurricane season.ogg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:12, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Phi Boota roota

Thanks for the correction. I was scanning the page to see if anything was out of place and that was the only organization that doesn't have a page built on Wiki--plus I was tracking the changes made by an anon IP that had been associated with vandalism. That's what I get for assuming. Maybe someone should create a page on it since it is an oddly-named group and probably has lots of members.Atlantabravz (talk) 11:51, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of National Band Association Hall of Fame of Distinguished Band Conductors

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article National Band Association Hall of Fame of Distinguished Band Conductors, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Fliry Vorru! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot notifying you on behalf of the the unreferenced biographies team that 2 of the articles that you created are currently tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 183 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Wes Bizilia - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Ralph Ford - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
