[edit] Why births have been removed

I have removed various children from the birth section of this day in history pages, I do not belive they are notable in their own right. Remember entries should consist of information about "notable" subjects. What exactly constitutes notability is the subject of constant debate on Wikipedia, but few of us believe that there should be articles about every person on the planet, every company that sells anything, or each street in every town in the world.

It is nothing personal. --Drappel 00:41, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Miranda Johanna Maria Rijnsburger

A tag has been placed on Miranda Johanna Maria Rijnsburger, 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 an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "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 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. Deranged bulbasaur 12:06, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Date pages

Please note the first item of the hidden-text notification in the "Births" section of these pages:

Do not add people without Wikipedia articles to this list

I have, therefore, removed those listings you added which do not have corresponding articles. Please do not re-add them. --Calton | Talk 05:03, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] January 2008

  1. Hello. I can find no logical explanation for your recent changes to January 13 and January 14 so I have reverted your edits. It appears that the only change was in de-alphabetizing the entries. I am interested in understanding your logic if you feel that the edits were warranted. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:59, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to January 23. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:21, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
    Let's centralize this discussion. There is a standing convention that names are alphabetical within the birth and death sections, although it only seems to have been mentioned in Wikipedia Talk:WikiProject Years. Please bring up your proposed convention change in Wikipedia Talk:WikiProject Days of the Year or another appropriate Wikipedia:WikiProject Time page before making future revisions. And I agree with Mufka. It appeared to be vandalism. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 16:48, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User talk:Mufka

Please do not make your contributions using only capital letters. It is considered shouting and is frowned upon. Thanks. --NeilN talk ♦ contribs 16:41, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Also, you should consider providing an edit summary along with your edits so other editors can understand what you're doing. Thanks. --NeilN talk ♦ contribs 16:46, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

My response is here. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:12, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
