Kenwyne Jones

[edit]

Hi. I've added {{Fact}} tags where needed and other bits and bobs on the Kenwyne Jones article. I'll keep an eye out for sources, and I reocmmend searching for sources to use, like this on the BBC. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 20:40, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've left some comments at the peer review. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 21:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Sorry that I didn't respond to you, that was my first time using an IRC network. I hadn't registered my nick at the time you contacted me, so I couldn't reply on the query. Anyway, talk to you soon! :)  ARTYOM  19:23, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Kenwyne Jones

[edit]

I direct you in the direction of this debate, copyedit is done according to that, there is only one last criteria for it to pass to GA status and that is listed there. if all is well it should only be a matter of time.--KerotanLeave Me a Message Have a nice day :) 20:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In my "mission" to create a page for every England player, I have created pages for two Sunderland players from pre-1914. Are you able to add anything? --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 08:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the infoboxes etc. I've now added a list of England and Scotland internationals to the main Sunderland page. There are a lot of red-links, so if you're ever bored.... Cheers. --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 07:06, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Easington, County Durham.

[edit]

Hi there. I took a look at Easington, County Durham a while ago, and didn't do anything, because I found the page so confused. In all honesty, I don't thank that Easington Village and Easington Colliery should be joined in one piece, as both villages have entirely seperate identities. Easington V is very historic, while Easington C was a pit village, which grew up around the colliery. Then, of course, is the problem with confusing the term Easington with Easington District! (And that takes in Seaham, Peterlee etc too...) Having said that, I'd be happy to try and help, and could get permission to use several old Sunderland Echo pictures of both places. --Seahamlass (talk) 15:11, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Photo request

[edit]

Since yoy are from County Durham, I am hoping that you can help me out. For spite house, please photograph the Edleston Spite House located next to St. Mary's in Gainford, County Durham England if you are near that area. Thanks. GregManninLB (talk) 01:48, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Andy Reid PR at WP:FOOTY

[edit]

When you added the Anthony Stokes (footballer) peer review to the list of current PRs at WP:FOOTY, you overwrote the entry for the peer review of Andy Reid (footballer). As the Andy Reid peer review is not yet over, and you were the one who originally submitted it, which rules out vandalism, I can only assume that you don't know how to add extra rows to tables. Would you like me to explain how? – PeeJay 22:54, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Happy easter!

[edit]

Hi again - I've added what I can to the article and corrected a few mistakes, e.g. he was not ever present in 1891-92 but was the previous year. One other point - I note that in the infoboxes you have shown the full career details (also for Holley and Bridgett) whereas only League appearances and goals should be shown. Cheers. --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 07:39, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

p.s. Great win yesterday; pity my lot couldn't score, Stern John didn't have a good game. I think we're going down again. Ouch!

I've placed it on hold. Comments left on talkpage. Regards, D.M.N. (talk) 18:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]


The article Andy Reid (footballer) you nominated as a good article has passed , see Talk:Andy Reid (footballer) for eventual comments about the article. Well done! D.M.N. (talk) 13:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"He palys as a ..."

[edit]

I spotted the above typo in several articles you created, evidently from data ... you may wish to go back, check for and fix this typo :-) Examples: Francesco Amantini, Alessandro Evangelisti ...

(It doesn't help that "Palys" is apparently also a surname, so general searching on Wikipedia turns up a pile of these.) - David Gerard (talk) 01:06, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bullshit!

[edit]

[[1]]

This page is total bullshit. Please check it for yourself, then remove it. Almost all the references listed are linked to islamic sites. There is one site listed as refence to a hindu site witch tells a story completly contrary to the one written on that page.

Remove this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mah%C4%81mad

Or i will have to take legal actions. I am also prepared to go to the media. I will do whatever it takes to bring an end to these lies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.66.62.229 (talk) 21:37, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Might make you grumpy...

[edit]

but they didn't like your final warning and made one more bad edit and quit for the day. I reverted, but I keep wanting to ask people - do you have all your user subpages in your watchlist? One person thought it was automatic, but I'd thought I had to add archives 'n such manually? Shenme (talk) 05:21, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Arsenal photos

[edit]

I've contacted him on flickr as to whether he'll be travelling upto Sunderland for the game, so I await his response and shall inform you when it arrives. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 12:00, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid he won't be, but I'm trying to see if the owner of this will be willing to place it under a free licence. Mattythewhite (talk) 17:04, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
He sent me a reply giving his consent for the image to be used, but he never changed the copyright permissions, so it won't be available for use yet. But I sent him a reply telling him this, so I await a second reply. Mattythewhite (talk) 15:06, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'll happily upload it onto my Wikimedia Commons account. Mattythewhite (talk) 16:22, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
He's yet to place it under a free licence, so I've sent him another message asking him if he can do so. Mattythewhite (talk) 12:06, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for congratulating me on my good fortune. --Pataki Márta (talk) 19:29, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for uploading the Murton pics. I really will get on with that, and Easington, next week. Just been seeing my first article through FAC - didn't realise how much time it would take. Got the star today, though, so smiling!--seahamlass 08:32, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for contributions to the project, Great work, especially on BBC Young Musician of the Year - you're lucky that the BBC website compiles all that data going back to 1978, I've been having a tough time finding stuff on the Emmys going back that far - good job overall.

WP:HAU has a new format

[edit]

Due to popular demand, HAU has a new look. Since the changes are so dramatic, I may have made some mistakes when translating the data. Please take a look at WP:HAU/EU and make sure your checkmarks are in the right place and feel free to add or remove some. There is a new feature, SoxBot V, a recently approved bot, automatically updates your online/offline status based on the length of time since your last edit. To allow SoxBot V to do this, you'll need to copy [[Category:Wikipedians who use StatusBot]] to your userpage. Obviously you are not required to add this to your userpage, however, without this, your status will always be "offline" at HAU. Thanks. Useight (talk) 17:22, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I'm a frequent user of wikipedia, although I only edit pages when I know that an article is factually incorrect and needs a change. (I used to be a copy editor for a few Gannett newspapers.) Thanks for editing wikipedia and thanks for open-source information!

My recent RfA

[edit]

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Wikipedia namespace and talk space, so that is what I will do. I have made a list and I hope I will be able to get through it. I will go for another RfA in about three month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been about three months. I will not be checking back to this page so if you would like to comment or reply please use my talk page.
