Excellent work so far :-) Keep up the good work! Finally this important piece might become NPOV :-) - Ta bu shi da yu 10:53, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Hi - Why did you put the NPOV tag back on Abington School District v. Schempp? I believe that the standard practice when you place the tag on a page is to describe which aspects you think are POV. Mateo SA | talk 02:33, Jan 3, 2005 (UTC)

Footnote proposal

edit

Hi - I saw your footnote proposal, and I'm guessing that making sure that people cite their sources is important to you. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals) at my proposal, "Remind people to cite sources while editing", and if you like it, please put in a good word for it. Thanks! -- Dwheeler 03:02, 2004 Dec 22 (UTC)

Hello, I am soliciting comments from all those Wikipedians whose edits to legal articles I've noticed. I've been editing Equal Protection Clause, submitted it to peer review, and now have nominated it for featured article status. Please tell me what you think of it, and if you support it, please add your support at the page written above (or, of course, add your objections). Thanks so much, Hydriotaphia 01:13, Dec 28, 2004 (UTC)

Welcome template for IP addresses

Nope, not a script nor special treatment. I just manually add {{anon}} kinda randomly whenever I notice an IP user make non-vandalism edits. —Kenyon (t·c) 07:18, 21 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your VandalProof Application

edit

Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Datapolitical. As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that:

You do not yet have enough experience (usually over 250 edit) in the main namespace.

Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank again for your interest in VandalProof. Ale_Jrbtalk 15:38, 29 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yes, it is. How did you figure it out? (I found it another way, but I'm impressed you came up with it). Thanks. Datapolitical (talk) 06:19, 29 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Kedon Slovis

edit
 

The article Kedon Slovis has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Proposed deletion of Kedon Slovis

edit
 

The article Kedon Slovis has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not pro and only run of the mill sources which do not show they rise above the bar needed to have an article

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Alon Tal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Blue and White. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
