Uploading images edit

I'm sorry to hear you are having trouble uploading images.

Please check your file. It must be in an appropriate format (e.g. jpg, png, gif for pictures, ogg for media files). Other formats are disallowed. They must also have the correct file extension.

Try saving and then reuploading image:example.jpg. — Dunc| 14:44, 28 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

Deletion edit

Hi! The reason I deleted it is that it was simply too short for inclusion and little more than a "placeholder" for the external link. Someone researching the subject already knows that they're researching toothpaste.  :) Feel free to recreate it, but please expand it into at least three good, informative sentences. Maybe you can talk about the brand's history, marketing campaigns, anything. - Lucky 6.9 20:10, 23 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Better...let's see if we can fix this together. - Lucky 6.9 20:19, 23 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

OK, it looks like we have a rather interesting stub over at Stomatol now. Take a look.  :) - Lucky 6.9 20:36, 23 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Vandalism edit

Page move edit

Aloha! I've just moved 7-Eleven back to its original location. This form is used both throughout the article itself and by the company in question in its literature. If you still disagree with the name, can you leave a reason on the talk page of the article before moving the page again? GeeJo (t) (c)  14:32, 2 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Reverts edit

Please don't use simply reverts. It is administrator-impersonating. --1() 16:48, 19 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

And yet you've done the same thing to his edits? I've found that Akhristov's edits and reversions are always in pursuit of higher article quality and coherence... if you have a specifc issue with a specific edit he made, talk about the content of edit, not his style.

Deletion of Microsoft Fingerprint edit

The page was deleted because it was a copyright violation from Microsoft's page, as listed in the deletion log. You are welcome to resubmit the article if you write it yourself instead of copy-pasting from another site. (ESkog)(Talk) 07:10, 11 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Microsoft edit

Judging by your contributions, you seem rather focused on Microsoft software. Why is this? JIP | Talk 20:31, 18 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Interwiki Microsoft Links edit

Hello. Those link were done by mistake early in my editing. I didn't realize what I had done until other people started pointing them out. Thank! Jerry G. Sweeton Jr. 00:42, 15 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Why did you move Africa-Eurasia to Africa–Eurasia? ~MDD4696 23:43, 4 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Philanthropist edit

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Philanthropist, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Philanthropist. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. — Sebastian (talk) 03:49, 8 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
