[edit] Wikipedia:Enforce inclusion of categories

Hi, I've made a proposal to change the software to prevent mainspace pages from being saved unless they contain a category. Since you've done a lot of work at User:Bluemoose/Uncategorised good articles, which would be affected by this proposal, I'd appreciate your thoughts! bd2412 T 23:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Eureka

Thanks for being nice about the Eureka edits. I thought editors would get really loud about my edits (I guess not much time has gone by yet). Oh boy! --al95521 23:57, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hollow-body

As a new editor I appreciate you kindness. I followed a couple of your edits to see your work and I have a question about your Hollow-body comment. How do you make a merge proposal? I found a page Adventure capital and I think it should be merged or redirected to Venture capital. Can you give me any suggestions? Thanks again. --al95521 23:57, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Here is the wiki article on Merges

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Merging_and_moving_pages

When using wikipedia example pages, I have a standard way of doing it:

A. Find a usage that you like of the thing you are trying to do

1.Hit edit on the example page 2.copy the text of the example you want to use 3.hit the back button or close without saving

B. (Note: I usually have a tab (firefox) open with the page I am editing)

1. Paste the example text 2. modify it to fit your needs 3. Hit the preview button before saving 4. say what your edit is before saving

[edit] Jack Black

Sorry about the revert on Jack Black yesterday. It didn't occur to me that you'd be creating the page you wikilinked, after changing the link. Salamurai 17:41, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem. It took me a really long time. Vampyrecat 03:56, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Award

Here is a WikiCookie award for your help. Thanks!

[edit] Notability

I've read your comment about the notability guidelines which are multiplying like rabbits. At minimum I'd like to see them trimmed back as the permutations are out of control. I'm trying to get some of the most onerous retagged as essays, and trim the rest. In a perfect world I'd like to see us relying on verifiability. Please join in some of the discussions.

Cheers!
