[edit] Larry Hillblom
In the Larry Hillblom article, you've made quite a lot of statements that require some sourcing, see Wikipedia:Cite your sources. Please provide some information about the sources that you've used, or else, because of our verifiability policy your additions will have to be removed. Thanks! --JoanneB 08:29, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Murder
In the article on murder you set Belgian's murder rate at 9.1 pro 100,000 citing an article from The Wall Street Journal. Unfortunatly Bret Stephens was falsely informed. That 9,1 figure also includes (unsuccesfull) attempts. In 2005 Belgian federal police registered 172 murders and manslaugthers for a pro capita rate of 1,6 per 100 000.
- btw you can sign by adding three or four ~, i.e. --~~~~ gives me: --moyogo 09:17, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed deletion of Kirby Wilbur
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kirby Wilbur, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rtphokie (talk) 01:40, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
