[edit]Rodgers and Hammerstein was listed as a candidate for the Collaboration of the week recently. Unfortunately, the nomination dropped out. I have renominated it on the Biography Collaboration of the week however - come and support the nomination there!--Fenice 16:38, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

Edit summaries
[edit]Hi, thanks for all of your usefull contributions. Please consider leaving edit summaries so that other users can easily see what changes were made, especially to userpages. Thanks. ∞Who?¿? 02:15, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
- Haha, I was just thinking that as well. I was surprised to see Hamilton-Burr duel's talk get the failed fac message when I didn't remember seeing the fac message, even though the page is on my watchlist. savidan(talk) (e@) 21:39, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]Hi - just wanted to say thanks for fixing the Irish/Irish people link on my user page! Grutness...wha? 05:36, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Washington
[edit]Well, thank you for your thank you. It was my pleasure, the subject fascinated me, and in good Wikipedian fashion, I wrote my little WikiHeart out. How did you know it was me who wrote it? Páll (Die pienk olifant) 05:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm flattered that you nominated this to be featured so early. However, it is still very much a work in progress, so I wasn't surprised to see it fail. I plan on finished Flemming's book before continuing to work on the article. If you'd like to help with it, there are a lot of online sources provided by the Weehawken Historical Commission that I linked in the references section but haven't had time to go through and cite yet. savidan(talk) (e@) 21:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Just a note to let you know the article has been completely rewritten in the time since you nominted it on AfD. dryguy 15:50, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Lincoln Kennedy Rewrite
[edit]I thank you very much for that rewrite. It truly created an article worthy of Wikipedia. I would just ask that you had waited for the AfD discussion to close, so as to not confuse the admin who has to determine whether or not to delete it. Thank you again though, I believe the article does not need to be deleted anymore. --kralahome 19:04, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your kind words. I believe that if you change your nom to a vote to keep, it will carry great weight with the admin who makes the final decision. dryguy 19:22, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

==Please Use Edit Summaries==
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. kralahome 21:24, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
==Do Not Remove AfD Notices== Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages. The notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of an article, and removing them is considered vandalism. If you oppose the deletion of an article, you may comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. kralahome 21:25, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

==Chicago== A tag has been placed on Chicago, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Chicago is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Chicago. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. kralahome 21:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
==Do Not Remove Warnings== Please do not remove legitimate warnings from your talk page or replace them with inappropriate content. Removing or maliciously altering warnings from your talk page will not remove them from the page history. You're welcome to archive your talk page, but be sure to provide a link to any deleted legitimate comments. If you continue to remove or vandalize legitimate warnings from your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks. kralahome 21:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 02:45, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
Characters of Les Misérables
[edit]Hi, I placed the whole Category:Characters of Les Misérables into Category:Musical theatre characters, which gives a more structured result than adding pages individually to the latter category. Please look out for similar opportunities to enhance the hierarchy of categories. Best wishes, Fayenatic (talk) 14:00, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
category:musical theater characters
[edit]Hi Kralahome -- I noticed that you placed the category:Musical theatre characters on Emma Goldman and Booker T. Washington. I reverted that for two reasons. The "characters" categories are for fictional characters, not real people who have been portrayed in fictional works. More importantly, categories are not applied for every aspect of an article; only for aspects that are defining. For instance, Emma Goldman is defined as an anarchist -- if you think of Emma Goldman, "anarchist" is one of the first things that comes to mind, and conversely, if you think of "anarchists", certainly Emma Goldman is one of the more notable anarchists. Obviously quite a different picture for "musical theater characters'! More info at CAT and overcategorization and CATFAQ, and if you have questions or want to talk about it, please drop me a line. Cheers, Lquilter (talk) 02:06, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Motto of the day
[edit]Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.
When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.
If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:39, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
Nomination of Trendio.com for deletion
[edit]
A discussion has begun about whether the article Trendio.com, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trendio.com until a concensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Melaen (talk) 12:09, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest
[edit]I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:48, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014
[edit]C'mon now! Are you really going to let some silly trio of colored-lights tell you how to drive your car?
Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.
Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
- This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).
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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:01, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
The file File:MtBakerCouncilPatch.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unused, unclear use/purpose
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 files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
