Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 07:03, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply


Typo redirect Kevin Bage

edit
 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Kevin Bage, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Kevin Bage is a redirect page resulting from an implausible typo (CSD R3).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Kevin Bage, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Unreferenced BLPs

edit

  Hello Ir5ac! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. 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 this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 6 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Dave Brockhoff

edit

Hi Ir5ac, nice work on the Dave Brockhoff article. It's always a pity that these articles come out as memorials rather than celebrations during a life, but that's just the nature of Wikipedia. Regards, WWGB (talk) 01:09, 19 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Really ? The article is blatantly plagiarised from the linked on-line obits with not even an half-attempt to paraphrase. And it stands without a single in-line citation. Needs a lot of work -Sticks66 12:23, 23 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Federal Prison Camp, Eglin, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chickenhawk. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
