Hi Vuara--
I've just noticed that you are creating a string of economics pages, which is very welcome, but you're getting Wikipedia's *Naming conventions wrong, which means that some of your effort is going to be wasted. The rule is that unless something is a proper name, or there is some other particular reason, we don't capitalise second and subsequent words in titles. So you provided a Balance of Payments page when there was already a perfectly good (in fact rather more thorough) Balance of payments page. Please check on this when creating new pages so you don't do a whole lot of duplication. Thanks. Don't worry, there are plenty of genuinely missing economics pages you can have all to yourself!
(and in case you think this is something that only relative newcomers do, be assured it's not - I just wasted a pile of time writing a page on nicitating membrane when we already had one on nictitating membrane - I'd never realised the former was a misspelling.)

Vuara,
I reverted/removed your contribution to Google (the quote from Jim Karpen). First of all, it's a direct copy of the guy's work, and whether or not it has permission, Wikipedia is not a place for direct quotes or original source materual. Second of all, it's POV, in that it praises Google and its services in a manner far from neutral or encyclopedic. Finally, I think that much of the content of that particular post is already discussed in the page. In the future, note that copying of this nature is just not what Wikipedia wants. Best luck with your future exploits on Wikipedia,

We’re also looking for some particularly passionate and interesting Wikipedia users to talk to, especially users outside the US. I would love to talk to you about your involvement with the site. If you are interested, please give me a call at 617-497-8096, or email me at robinamer@riseup.net and send me your phone number.
Thanks so much.

[edit] AfD nomination of List of oxymora
I have nominated List of oxymora, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of oxymora (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Jmlk17 06:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
