[edit] For the record
In reference to your comment on Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Pilot (House), Featured articles are not chosen based on subject. They are chosen based on the quality. The articles length and topic are not a factor. A good example of articles that are not chosen based on topic is the Exploding whale article. To sum it all up: it's quality not quantity. The Filmaker 04:28, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'd like to request that you stop by and give your support at least give some actionable objection to the article becoming an FA. The Filmaker 20:55, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re:Misunderstanding
Hello there, I'm afraid that type of information can be seen as inappropriate for an article. Wikipedia tries to be as factually accurate as possible and information like that which you added is unverifiable. Thinking of it logically, did someone go around and ask each and every person there to see if they were gay? And even then, would the population all have been honest? It's for these reasons I reverted you additions to the article. --Sagaciousuk (talk) 06:20, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- Also:
- In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!
[edit] Lost
I've copied your article to wikiasite:lost:Flashes Before Your Eyes in case it is deleted from here. Feel free to use Wikia for rumors about future episodes with might violate Wikipedia's crystal ball policy. Angela. 17:44, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Flashes Before Your Eyes
I know how you feel, but this page has not been confirmed by ABC, so it will be deleted unless it has official confirmation. Thank you. --SilvaStorm
- On a further note, there is a good chance your edits concerning this rumoured episode will be seen as vandalism, and you may be subsequently banned. Please don't make these edits or create pages until official confirmation (ABC). --SilvaStorm

[edit] Deleting articles
Hi there, you left a note on Devin (The Office) for the article to be deleted, which should be carried out shortly. In future, please do not leave a page like this as this gives the false impression there is an article there when there isn't. Please either move the article to a new title (as would have been appropriate in this case), redirect it to another article (if you would have found that the article already exists) or have the page deleted by an administrator (in this case, you could have placed {{db-author}} on the page as you were the only contributor). Thanks, and happy editing, mattbr30 14:46, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on OfficeTally.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. thadius856talk|airports|neutrality 20:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:ImpatientBarnstar.png
Thanks for uploading Image:ImpatientBarnstar.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:06, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] My RfA
My request for adminship has closed successfully (79/0/1), so it appears that I am now an administrator. Thanks very much for your vote of confidence. If there's anything I can ever do to help, please don't hesitate to let me know. IrishGuy talk 01:26, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Durham NC
I see you're adding this project banner to some articles. That's great, but I wanted to make a humble suggestion. You needn't add the Template: part inside the brackets. {{WikiProject Durham NC}} will achieve the same effect. It'll work either way, just saves a bit of typing. Hope that helps, and good luck with the project! :) --Ebyabe 17:06, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] DSA
- I'm not sure, but I don't thinki that that's it. DSA's IP has been blocked for 6 months. By the way, can I be part of WikiProject Durham NC? I live here, so it would be fun.Jonwilliamsl 00:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Task Force
Hey mrcrabby- Don't you think that this WikiProject would be better as a task force of WikiProject North Carolina? Durham only has about 3 dozen pages-we could work under the NC administrators and they could do the boring stuff while we just edited the Durham pages. Jonwilliamsl
