Patersonians

This doesn't need its own article. A mention on Paterson, New Jersey will be enough to record the fact.  (aeropagitica)  (talk)  06:07, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

E Euro

A tag has been placed on Eastern Europeans, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to add more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. _SUBWAYguy 05:54, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Paterson NJ

How are you? I have been contributing to the Paterson NJ article and have noticed a writer delete and add some inaccurate and simply made up information. I have attempted to contact him/her by posting some of my reasons for making some minor edits in the feedback space and i left him posts on the article's discussion pages. What other steps can i take? I have not yet seen a response and there is no way of knowing if the writer is aware of my comments? How can i find out his name so that i can leave him a note on his personal my talk? thank you --Javierbaires1 01:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

PS Thank you for adopting me

Erm, I haven't adopted you! Your userpage didn't include the adoption box and I haven't made an enquiry to you regarding adoption. If you do want to be adopted, check out WP:ADOPT and see if you like the idea. Follow the instructions on the page for requesting an adopter and follow it up with those who show an interest in taking you on. Regards, (aeropagitica) 16:07, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

You can't be sure that an editor will read a message sent to them, even if it is sent to their Talk page, although a yellow messagebox will appear on each page that they look at until they check their personal Talk page. To find out who has made a particular edit to an article, look at the history tab at the top of the page. This lists the edits to a page in chronological order, giving the editors' handle, time of the edit and the summary, if one was filled in. You can look at the difference before and after an edit by choosing two radio buttons on the left hand-side of the page and clicking the 'Compare selected versions' button at the top of the history page. This will give you a URL like this, which you can then use to show an editor what they have changed and then point out which changes you disagree with and why.

My apologies, thanks for all your help Javierbaires1

Adoption

Hi there, I'm Tellyaddict and would be happy to adopt you if you want. Please tell me whether you would like me to or not on my Talk page. Thanks... Tellyaddict^Talk 22:35, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, excellent! I am happy to adopt you, so what areas are you stuck on or what do you need help with and I'll get right on it! Also you may wish to place this template on your Talk Page and take the other one which is asking for adoption off as you have already been adopted, heres the template {{Adoptee|Adopter's Username}} but its completely up to you, if you do decide to put this template on your user page you would replace the 'adopters username' bit with:Tellyaddict; but its your choice! Anyway leave a message on my Talk Page and tell me what you need assistance with or what you need me to do! Have fun on Wikipedia and make it a better place!

Respectfully... Tellyaddict^Talk 10:06, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

The El Salvador portal

Dear Javierbaires1,

I am extremely pleased to once again find another person who is interested in editing the El Salvador portal. The contents have been updated and the portal is complete. If you like, here are some suggestions for editing:

• The Portal is updated once every week.
• Please choose neutral, quality articles. Here is an example of what should not be chosen.
• To the quotes and news sections, please add verifiable statements.
• Have as much fun as you can with the portal. It is here for all wikipedians and non-wikipedians to further investigate the proud country of El Salvador.

Thank you for contacting me. BashmentBoy 09:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC)BashmentBoy

Thank you too --Javierbaires1 03:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)Javierbaires1

Just curious...

Hey, your user page says you come from both the USA and El Salvador. Well, which one is it? Can't be both. Living in the USA isn't the same as coming from the USA >.<. Just curious, don't mean to nitpick. JoshHolloway 16:16, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I could not find a template that read "this user lives in The USA" --Javierbaires1 01:17, 26 January 2007 (UTC)Javierbaires1

Fair enough :) JoshHolloway 15:41, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. 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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:07, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
