Speedy deletion nomination of Wrimare School Inc.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Wrimare School Inc., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

In response to your feedback

Hi Mediran, and thanks for leaving feedback. Wikipedia is the encyclopedia that anyone can edit, and sometimes people make unconstructive edits. This is why we have a policy that all information must be verifiable. If you find something that is incorrect, you are encouraged to be bold and correct it, especially if you can cite a source to support your addition.

If an article is being repeatedly vandalised, you can request that the page be protected here. This will temporarily prevent some accounts from editing.

File permission problem with File:ValSci Logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:ValSci Logo.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 12:02, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

April 2012

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Bikini Atoll. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want.

Disambiguation link notification for April 25

Hi. When you recently edited Valenzuela City Science High School, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Science High School (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Matanglawin.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Matanglawin.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 06:27, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:VALSCI.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:VALSCI.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 06:36, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Copyright problems with File:Museo.JPG

Hello. Concerning your contribution, File:Museo.JPG, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.valenzuela.gov.ph/index.php/the_city/people. As a copyright violation, File:Museo.JPG appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. File:Museo.JPG has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at File talk:Museo.JPG and send an email with the message to permissions-enwikimedia.org. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
• If a note on the original website states that it is licensed under the CC-BY-SA license, leave a note at File talk:Museo.JPG with a link to where we can find that note.
• If you hold the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the CC-BY-SA and GFDL, and note that you have done so on File talk:Museo.JPG.

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. While contributions are appreciated, Wikipedia must require all contributors to understand and comply with its copyright policy.

Non-free rationale for File:Patchythepirate.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Patchythepirate.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Proposed deletion of NEO Manufacturing and Services, Inc.

The article NEO Manufacturing and Services, Inc. has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not meet WP:CORP

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

cam bioceramics

hi Meridian,

I saw your message and was curious about your speedy deletion notice. I can find many pages about companies, and I have tried to keep the text as neutral as possible. e.g. not stating that we are better than other companies or trying to interest customers. I have tried to keep the page as factual as possible.

I would be interested to know why other companies can have wikis and you feel Cam Bioceramics can not. If there is any rules I should know about I would appreciate it if you could point them out to me so I can rewrite the text as appropriate.

Best regards, Onno "Onnovisser1979 (talk) 11:32, 12 September 2012 (UTC)"

Speedy deletion of Dj-MaltheG

Hi Mediran. Thanks for helping to tag candidates for speedy deletion; it's important if thankless work. However, you recently taggedDj-MaltheG for deletion under CSD criteria A1 (no context) and G1 (patent nonsense) - whilst it was a valid candidate for speedy deletion (I deleted it under A7 (no indication of notability)) it did not fulfil either of these criteria. G1 should only be applied in cases of genuine gibberish, not non-English content - this article was written in Danish, which needs translating, but is a coherent language. A1 only applies when the article contains insufficient information to identify the topic - in this instance, the first line reads (translated), "Malthe is a Danish pop singer". That alone is adequate to prevent its deletion under A1.

Getting the speedy deletion tag right is important, because it affects a number of metrics used to monitor Wikipedia's content. I've got an essay here which helps explain some of the more common speedy tags; hopefully you'll find it helpful. Thanks again for your work monitoring new pages. Yunshui 雲‍水 09:53, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Yunshui! As I translated the article to English, I saw at the last part of the paragraph that says "He has three testicles...." and so whatever. Its gibberish and unencyclopedic, but Yes, I was wrong for the tags I tagged to the article for deletion. Thanks again and again and again for that notification. Now I know what will and should be done. :) Mediran ^talk 10:05, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

A bit snappy at Nick

Dude, your post at Talk:Brisbane Bitter was a bit bitey on a newcomer. Though I agree that folks shouldn't get away with murder just for being new, something more like "hey, article isn't ready, I'm moving it to your Userspace until it is. You can move it back once it's sourced" would be more helpful. Or, like I did, give him a link to Help:Userspace draft.

As it was, he seemed a bit upset trying to figure things out but willing to communicate and learn, and your reply just didn't come across as very helpful. Totally understand it's stressful dealing with deletions, but given how many newb editors are unhelpful and uncommunicative, it's really not productive to snap at someone who legitimately wants to communicate and improve.MatthewVanitas (talk) 15:38, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for that. I will try to make myself clear from those issues. I will try my best. Thanks! Mediran ^talk 09:48, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Attack pages

Thanks for patrolling new pages - a tedious but vital task! Where a page is a personal attack, like one by this user you tagged a couple of hours ago, there is a better tag to use than db-person. {{db-attack}} (or{{db-g10}}) has three advantages: it hides the content of the article, it puts it in a high-priority queue for admin attention, and it generates a suitably fierce warning for the attacker. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 12:58, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Ohhhhhh Goodies! Thanks for that JohnCD! Now I know better templates to be inserted to an article that may meet Wikipedia deletion policy. Thanks again! Mediran ^{talk|contribs}13:14, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

It's worth reading WP:CSD carefully for the full list, and there is good advice from an experienced admin at WP:10CSD andWP:A7M. JohnCD (talk) 13:53, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Ohh... like what you said, WP:CSD is really worth reading. When I read the essay of SoWhy the Common A7 mistakes, it was really helpful because it makes all of the ideas clear about A7. Thanks for that, it was such a big help. Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 09:02, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Attack pages are pages that attack indiviuals, eg "John is a bastard and retard." Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 09:54, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

I was really a bit confused with Attack pages. Thanks for that! Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 09:59, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Yes, you've been a bit too enthusiastic with "attack page" flags this morning - Danil tochilin and Keegan van dyk were both kids writing about themselves - unsourced BLP and not notable, but not attacks. Sometimes that sort of page is an attack because it is rude about a disliked step-parent or someone else - an attack need not be on the subject of the page - but these two were {{db-person}}candidates, not {{db-attack}}, and to avoid confusing the newbies I have over-written your warnings on their talk pages. Keep at it, you're learning, and this place is so complicated that making mistakes is the only way to learn. JohnCD (talk) 10:08, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

I am just learning about these things... now its a bit clear for me because now it was elaborated to me what are the differences of db-person to db-attack and vice versa. Thanks again! Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 10:18, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi there, Mediran.

Just a note

If there's only one editor (apart from typo corrections, tags etc) and they blank the page, use G7 (one author blanking) rather than A3 (no content). Comes down to the same thing, but looks better and shows you're reading the history. Don't accept a blanking as a G7 if there are other contributors to the article - including IPs (who may or may not be the author - we don't know them from Adam (except that he didn't have the internet...). You can't use A3 there either. Tricky one. Best there to prod or AfD if there isn't another clear CSD reason. A3 is mainly for things created as a title and nothing more that have been left untouched for about an hour or so. Give a chance -there might have been a call to collect a sick kid from school or so on. Odds are that they won't return to it, but AGF.Peridon (talk) 10:42, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

A bit more...

Nonsense at CSD is rather limited. It's really for things like 'ytuytuyui dewweeerreer' (so long as you are sure that that isn't actually Upper Slododian or similar). If there are no vowels (bearing in mind that w, y, and r can be vowels or substitute for them), it's nonsense (if not an acronym - be careful). If in doubt, Google it. Also nonsense are things like 'paint raccoon negatively sounded forwards subterranean archive' - but beware of bad machine translations (mostly from Japanese or Korean). If it does read coherently, it's not nonsense (CSD meaning). It may be rubbish, and totally unencyclopaedic, but it's not nonsense. CSD nonsense is rare. Keep up the good work. :) Peridon (talk) 12:31, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

Proposed blackout in protest of RA 10175

Dear Polo,

Greetings!

As a Filipino Wikipedian, I hope you are aware of the passage of Republic Act No. 10175, also known as the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, which was signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III on September 12, 2012. Currently, there is a discussion on theTambayan, the noticeboard for Philippines-related topics, about a proposed blackout of the English Wikipedia in the Philippines in order to protest the passage of RA 10175, similar to the blackout against SOPA and PIPA held earlier this year. I feel that your input on the subject will definitely help in the discussion.

Please feel free to participate in the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines#The Cybercrime Prevention Act, and I hope your input will help the Filipino Wikipedia community determine which is the best course of action against this law. Similarly, we hope to get as much input from as many Wikipedians as possible.

Thank you and maraming salamat po!

Kind regards,

Infoboxes

When you get a mess like the one you found at Fitri shazwan raduwan, it usually means someone new has made a balls-up of an infobox. Very often, sticking }} on the end sorts it out (unless it's already got that - I get lost then...). I've declined your speedy, as it now has some sort of content. On the basis of that content, I've retagged it A7 as it gives nothing between the ages of 17 and 24. Now the box is fixed, they may finish things off. Or someone who knows football might agree with the tag and delete it or add to it. I don't care which, really. Peridon (talk) 14:05, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

--Randeep Singh IK (talk) 10:15, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello Randeep and welcome to Wikipedia! As I read the article, Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought as one of the content of What Wikipedia is not. The article looks like an original research or essay. The article is wholly unsourced and some info looks like a hoax. If you can, please add citations on the article for it to beverifiable. Regards, Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 10:22, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Well I disagree

Okay, the swim coach didn't have to be added, but the other things I added, that is what those characters were notorious for. I really don't understand why you decided to take those down. The fact that Mark betrayed Jenny and Shane was very important, that was the beginning of Jenny's downward spiral and you see Shane at one of her most emotional times although she tries to keep herself distanced. You really shouldn't have changed that part. My thing with Dana and Jenny in season one is that they did not date. They went to Jenny's apartment, tried to have sex, it was too awkward so they decided to be friends, that was it. There was no dating. Now just as I corrected Jenny's, maybe it should have just read Attempted to date Jenny (her last name) during season 1. And Yolanda, my gosh, that's all she ever did was try to chew Bette's head off at every single meeting they had. She was very confrontational! That's what she was known for. I have nothing against that character. I guess we could leave the temperamental part off.

Hello Anonomous8511 and welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for your recent contributions. You recently added; "Known for being very confrontational and temperamental.". That is not much significant to be included and please do not include like all of the characteristics of a character should be included. Also this "Betrayed them by setting up hidden cameras throughout the house.", who are the them in the sentence, it might confused the readers asking "Who are thosethem?". Please provide a specific name or names on pronouns if the noun it substitutes is unknown. And please do not make like making the article as a plot of the whole series.

Thanks for the information on CSD 1. Now that I think about it, a page like this, Gdunk, which is suspicious and for which no information can be found on High Beam or google is more likely to be characterized as a hoax, and still eligible for speedy deletion. Do you agree? Donner60 (talk) 02:33, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

I have gone ahead and changed the template to hoax (vandalism). I left an additional note inviting the user to support the article with reliable and verifiable sources. I repeated this and my inability to find any reference to this on google or high beam. I see you have now left a message as well. I support your encouragement to and education of the user. In view of the unpersuasive comments contesting the deletion, from an IP address which is likely the same user in my opinion, I doubt if any valid support for this article will be forthcoming. Donner60 (talk) 03:03, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Could be... but I think since the "Gdunk" was developed by less known basketball player, I think it would be better to redirect it to its developer, Steven Gray. Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 02:47, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for making me take a closer look at this. There is indeed a video which might support this; at least it shows Steven Gray making a tricky dunk play. I did some additional research under his name and found that. Still nothing on the term "Gdunk" but perhaps it is being tossed about somewhere. In any event, I removed the speedy deletion template and placed the following on the user talk page and similarly, the quoted part on the article talk page.

"I left this message on the article talk page. I am removing the speedy deletion template because I found a You Tube video with a Steven Gray dunk. I have still found nothing on "Gdunk". I now think this should be evaluated on other criteria and in line with the other tags placed on the article. Due to the video, I think this may be agf. I still think it is not notable enough for a stand-alone article even if other sources eventually show up. Sorry if the template was premature or erroneous but I think the verifiability of the article was questionable, especially under the term "Gdunk" which seems not to have gained much currency in the sources yet. The notability still seems questionable.

"Again, I encourage you to support the article's facts, and its notability, with reliable and verifiable sources. The other tags placed by other editors remain." Donner60 (talk) 03:33, 13 October 2012 (UTC) Sorry for the wheel spinning.Donner60 (talk) 03:34, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

As I researched it on Google, it says; "Did you mean Steven Gray Dunk". Most of the results are about a dunk by Steven Gray but nothing about the dunk "Gdunk". I think for me, in my own perspectives, I think the "Gdunk" means "Gray-dunk" from Steven Gray. Yes, because it has no results on Google, just nominate it for deletion on AfD since it also have no significance and it is wholly unsourced. Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 03:53, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

That makes sense. My current thought is that this was probably not intended as a hoax but is merely the work of a young person who is a fan of Steven Gray or who saw the You Tube video and was impressed by it. That would make it good faith. But it still does not make it notable. If someone would have to dig deeply, and then perhaps reason it through as you did, just to figure out where Gdunk came from (because it doesn't appear in any easily findable source at the current time) it certainly would not seem that Gdunk is notable. Not to take anything away from Gray's talent or his fan's admiration, but it doesn't belong as a separate article. Since there is a page on Steven Gray, your suggestion that the user add something to that page would probably be most suitable and the most it deserves.Donner60 (talk) 05:12, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes..... as I watched the video on YouTube, it was simply a video taken at home..... it is home-made. I don't know if the video wasthis, but it just simply have no significance at all. Yes, as what you have said, maybe it is from a young person that saw the video and got impressed or fascinated with it, but we all know that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and we all know its policies when it come to notability, everything that doesn't assert its significance may be deleted and that Gdunk is an example of an article that it is lacking of asserting the significance of its subject. I don't think there are any sources that can support and verify that article because I think... that Gdunk doesn't exist at all because even Google and other sources and even on news have no results of that subject. As I read the article, there is a statement saying; "Critics claim that Gray never performed the dunk, justifying their belief based on the lack of evidence to prove otherwise.", even critics believe that the dunk is not real.Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 07:09, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

I have been busy and off line since my last message but I will look into this further. As you note, even though this might not be a hoax, it has no notability. Donner60 (talk) 18:52, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

As I looked further at this I saw that another editor has had Gdunk deleted. So it seems that should finish that.Donner60 (talk) 19:44, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

OK Beverli... Wikipedia I think cannot grant you that unless if you have any reliable sources from any pages... Wikipedia is not an original or a primary source, it is a gathered info from different reliable sources, it is a composition. Please... if you want for inclusion, please contact the recording label of the recording you did if you want ... and not here on Wikipedia. Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 02:16, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanx Medarin... however that makes your page inaccurate...i will follow what u said, as i hv tried it already as i said in one of the texts to u......since i been reviewing info about "wiki" i now know a little more about it.......but remember, ur info re: the Monitors is not complete, and unleaa u got ur info from Ian himkself or one of the members of the group, which are all deceased except myself and darrell..ur ino is hearsay and unreliable, unlike what u profess it to be....word of mouth is u can't trust whats on WIKI"....thanx again — Preceding unsigned comment added by98.243.241.123 (talk) 02:59, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Regarding protection of Jinn

I've edited an article about the protection from Jinn, which you have reverted. The reason I've edited it was because the person that wrote it had no idea what they're talking about, the information they wrote being misleading. The majority of Muslims don't believe/ have an idea about what was written there, and what I wrote is a much more accurate account of their beliefs, please revert it to my version. What was written is so misleading/inaccurate that it shouldn't be even kept up as a different opinion.

Thanks

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Unfortunately, as I read what you have added, it looks like a hoax and not well-constructive. Please be bold in editing! Regards, Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 10:25, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

It is not a hoax I assure you, I am a muslim, so I pretty much know this information. The information presented before regarding amulet's tajja'd, and trying to evade angering the Jinn is pretty much all against the principle's of Islam. Check this out for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayat_al-Kursi#Authentic_or_Sahi

Abu Hurayrah said,

"Allah's Messenger assigned me to keep watch over the Sadaqah (charity) of Ramadan. A person snuck in and started taking handfuls of foodstuff. I caught him and said, `By Allah, I will take you to Allah's Messenger.' He said, `Release me, for I am meek and have many dependents and am in great need.' I released him, and in the morning Allah's Messenger asked me, `What did your prisoner do yesterday, O Abu Hurayrah!' I said, `O Allah's Messenger! He complained of being needy and of having many dependents, so I pitied him and let him go.' Allah's Messenger said, `Indeed, he told you a lie and will be coming again.' I believed that he would show up again, for Allah's Messenger had told me that he would return. So, I watched for him. When he (showed up and) started stealing handfuls of foodstuff, I caught hold of him again and said, `I will definitely take you to Allah's Messenger.' He said, `Leave me, for I am very needy and have many dependents. I promise I will not come back again.' I pitied him and let him go. In the morning Allah's Messenger asked me, `What did your prisoner do last night, O Abu Hurayrah!' I replied, `O Allah's Messenger! He complained of his great need and of too many dependents, so I took pity on him and set him free.' Allah's Messenger said, `Verily, he told you a lie; he will return.' I waited for him attentively for the third time, and when he (came and) started stealing handfuls of the foodstuff, I caught hold of him and said, `I will surely take you to Allah's Messenger as it is the third time you promised not to return, yet you returned.' He said, `Let me teach you some words which Allah will give you benefit from.' I asked, `What are they?' He replied, `Whenever you go to bed, recite Ayat Al-Kursi- Allahu la ilaha illa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyum, till you finish the whole verse. (If you do so), Allah will appoint a guard for you who will stay with you, and no Shaytan will come near you until morning.' So, I released him. In the morning, Allah's Messenger asked, `What did your prisoner do yesterday?' I replied, `O Allah's Messenger! He claimed that he would teach me some words by which Allah will grant me some benefit, so I let him go.' Allah's Messenger asked, `What are they?' I replied, `He said to me: Whenever you go to bed, recite Ayat Al-Kursi from the beginning to the end, Allahu la ilaha illa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyum. He further said to me: (If you do so), Allah will appoint a guard for you who will stay with you, and no Shaytan will come near you until morning.' (One of the narrators) then commented that they (the Companions) were very keen to do good deeds. The Prophet said, `He spoke the truth, although he is a liar. Do you know whom you were talking to, these three nights, O Abu Hurayrah!' Abu Hurayrah said, `No.' He said, `It was Shaytan. [AL-Bukhari ; An-Nasa'i also recorded this Hadith in Al-Yawm wa Al-Laylah. ]

So basically this is evidence from a hadith(story from the prophet) about one of the sura's I've posted. If you want to be more sure ask a (knowledgeable) muslim. 41.254.1.116 (talk) 10:54, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Edit: Sorry about the format I'm pretty bad at this. 41.254.1.116 (talk) 10:56, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello! I am not a Muslim so I don't know much regarding to these things. I reverted your edit because I based on what you did and it looks unconstructive and not adhering the neutral point of view and of a bias like you want to say something that is wrong/right. Please if you want, revert what I did or reconstruct your thought for it to be encyclopedic and please adhere to neutral point of view. Again, please be bold in editing.

Dottie West discography

Hello,

I recently created two separate discography articles for American country music artist, Dottie West. This a very popular method used on Wikipedia from my understanding, as many discographies are often split this way if they are too lengthy. When a discography is split, their main "discography" page is only used to refer to the other two discography articles. I have done this on numerous occasions when creating discography articles for other artists. Please note discographies such as Dwight Yoakam andMariah Carey that exemplify this formaula. Overall, I would like to know why my edits for removing the information is considered to be vandalism. I do not think this fair on my part. Thank you.

ChrisTofu11961 (talk) 20:03, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Also, please consider the following page, Wikipedia:WikiProject Discographies, which includes links to separate "singles" and "albums" discographies. Many of these articles are considered to be "featured" articles as well. Please let me know what I have done wrong so I can fix my mistakes. I do not write for Wikipedia as often as I used to so I am little behind on some of the new policies. Thank you.

ChrisTofu11961 (talk) 20:31, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello ChrisTofu11961! Thank you for your exceptional contributions. Thanks for your concern and Im sorry for that, it was a really big big big mistake. Your edit summary wasn't that clear and I didn't know that you simplified it into a disambiguation page, sorry for that. I reverted the article into your latest version and now it is perfectly fine just the way your last revision. Thank you and Happy Editing!. Regards, Mediran ^{talk|contribs} 03:51, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

No problem, have a good day. ChrisTofu11961 (talk) 04:11, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Page Curation newsletter - closing up!

Hey all :).

We're (very shortly) closing down this development cycle for Page Curation. It's genuinely been a pleasure to talk with you all and build software that is so close to my own heart, and also so effective. The current backlog is 9 days, and I've never seen it that low before.

However! Closing up shop does not mean not making any improvements. First-off, this is your last chance to give us a poke about unresolved bugs or report new ones on the talkpage. If something's going wrong, we want to know about it :). Second, we'll hopefully be taking another pass over the software next year. If you've got ideas for features Page Curation doesn't currently have, stick them here.

Again, it's been an honour. Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 12:28, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
