Well, thanks Spinboy! I've seen these welcome messages on other Wikipedian's talk pages and wondered if someone would at some point add one to mine. It only took a little more than a month, too! Kamoranakrre T. Eyaelitenan 02:21, 6 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Spam in Lion's Choice

edit
 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Lion's Choice, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Lion's Choice is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Lion's Choice, 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.

Lion's Choice

edit

Hey Kamoranakrre. I put the article here for you: User talk:Kamoranakrre T. Eyaelitenan/Lion's Choice. When you're ready to move it into the mainspace, just remove the "no wiki" tags I put around the categories (as userfied articles shouldn't show up in the cats until they're moved back into the mainspace). As I said earlier, though, I do recommend that you add a sentence or two explaining why this is a notable company as I think there's a good chance it would be tagged as 'a company lacking an assertion of notability or significance' and will just get deleted again if posted as is.

Rescue Squadron members are focused on rescuing articles for deletion, that might otherwise be lost forever. I think you will find our project matches your vision of Wikipedia.

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

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.
