[edit] Lewis Turco

Please rewrite this article to remove the use of passive voice.TheRingess 07:03, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the references to Turco's memoirs ... I've moved them into footnotes. I don't suppose you know page numbers we could cite? I think TheRingess was justified in tagging the article with 'weasel' but I think it is starting to look more objective. — Stumps 16:17, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your quick reponse. I'd like to do a bit more on the Turco article. It's looking good, but I think we can make it a really good article. I'd also appreciate any help you could give on the New Formalism article ... there are some users who keep blanking out most of the content I'm working on, and I'm worried that I may be inadvertently only putting forward one side of some mysterious battle. Anyhow, if you know ANYTHING about the history of New Formalism that you think should be on the page, please do add it.
By the way, you did almost everything right in terms of communicating in Wikipedia ... just three small things:
  1. Remeber to be logged in, otherwise it just looks like some anonymous IP has left a message
  2. Remember to sign your name on talk pages by putting four tildes (~~~~) at the end, this will add your name and the current date at the end of your post
  3. You edited my User page, rather than by User Talk page ... next tab across the top.
Let me know if I haven't made myself clear and I'll be happy to try explaining again. — Stumps 19:32, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Welcome back to Wikipedia. To find out how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (music) for more detail. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more:

[edit] Notability of Not As Good As Us

A tag has been placed on Not As Good As Us requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), 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 an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. JohnCD (talk) 11:01, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Leigh Allison Wilson, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://english2.mnsu.edu/gt/lw.html.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:48, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
