WP:OR & WP:SYNTH edit

Big fat hint
  • Don't include in the article anything that isn't in the source you're citing for it.
  • Don't include in the lead sentence (without citation) anything that's not mentioned, and cited , in the rest of the article.

Also, it's not particularly relevant to include former postgrad students who are neither sufficiently notable to merit their own article, nor even working in the same field anymore. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 10:27, 29 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

“badly malformed” edit

Re [1]: Just what is a badly malformed article? How does it differ from a well malformed article? —SlamDiego←T 05:29, 2 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

See the section above for some "big fat hint[s]". And "badly malformed" is to differentiate from 'mildly malformed', as anybody with a passing understanding of Enlgish would realise. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 06:20, 2 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
Really, the issue isn't whether one could guess at what you were trying to say. Perhaps you want to look into words such as “very”, “extremely”, “markedly”, “pronouncedly”, &c. And perhaps you want to tone down the intensity of your insults, as you aren't exactly performing flawlessly here yourself. ;-) —SlamDiego←T 06:52, 2 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
