Speedy deletion nomination of Robert Joseph Greene
editIf 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 Robert Joseph Greene requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Kumioko (talk) 02:53, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

I saw that Gene93k has open the discussion to Canadians. Is there anyway you can open it up to the LGBT community on wikipedia too? Talk:Tews
- Cirt (talk · contribs) just listed the discussion under Sexuality and gender and notified the LGBT Studies project. • Gene93k (talk) 15:52, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
Citation Needed
editThis prompted the Canadian Library Association to reiterate their policy towards LGBT inclusiveness that would apply to "freedom of expression".[citation needed] is on page two of ^ Christofle, Robert (July 1, 2012). "Are Librarians Fearful of Giving Their Opinion Publicly?". Feliciter via Highbeam. Retrieved April 8, 2013. So, I don't know how to site this. This article isn't online but I do have a copy of it.

I added reference 9 but it's not aligned properly. I also think I placed the source Xtra West in the wrong section of the reference. Can someone change this?
- You'll need to type it as <ref>{{cite news|title= Xtra West Complaint filed against Surrey radio station|url=http://www.xtra.ca/public/viewstory.aspx?AFF_TYPE=4&STORY_ID=4328&PUB_TEMPLATE_ID=2|accessdate=April 8, 2013|newspaper=Canadian Broadcast Standards Complaint|date=February 13, 2008}}</ref> and insert it right after the closing period of the sentence you're citing. See this if you're looking for more info. Don't put it in the actual References section - that will automatically populate itself based on what you put in the body of the article.
- Also, please remember to sign your edits to talk pages (such as this one) with four tildes, like this: ~~~~. Cheers, m.o.p 05:49, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
Please follow policy here or you may be blocked. Take this warning seriously. Qworty (talk) 23:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
- The threat of blocking is unwarranted, but please clarify whom you've sent the e-mail to. Is it the official copyright-notification OTRS address? Thanks, Newyorkbrad (talk) 23:21, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Tiko Kerr Help
editHey Tews,
Could you help me with my Tiko Kerr article? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiko_Kerr) I need it NOT to be an orphan and I don't know how to do that. You seem to know these things better. Thanks. Desaderal (talk) 02:38, 24 June 2013 (UTC)desaderal
OK. Done. It wouldn't let me remove the notation but I notified the editor of the changes I made.Tews (talk) 14:31, 24 June 2013 (UTC)Tews

editHello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Arthur Erickson may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

- were also the subject of painting by famous artists including Vancouver artist [[Tiko Kerr]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Near death in 2006, Tiko Kerr has a 15-painting tribute to architect Arthur
Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 14:24, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
Adding categories
editTo add a category to an article place the following mark-up at the bottom of the page:
[[Category:"Name of the category"]]
Replace "Name of the category" with the actual category (without quotation marks). Categories can be found at Portal:Contents/Categories. For more information see Help:Category. If you have any further questions feel free to ask on my talk page.--Mark Miller (talk) 06:13, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
editHello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Tews. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tews~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Renamed
editThis account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)

Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Tews~enwiki. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Robert Joseph Greene, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:40, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
