AfD nomination of KrisWorld edit

I have nominated KrisWorld, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/KrisWorld. 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.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Russavia Dialogue 04:17, 9 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Re: Life on Earth edit

The following comment by me is exactly the same as the one at Talk:Carbon#Life on Earth, except for the link added in the first line to preserve the context [Brian Jason Drake 02:11, 30 April 2009 (UTC)]:Reply

The article carbon states:

Carbon compounds form the basis of all life on Earth...

Huh? According to Wikipedia's article, we don't even have a good definition of life! Even if we did, it's not entirely clear (at least from what I've read) that we know about all life on Earth. Brian Jason Drake 13:09, 24 April 2009 (UTC)Reply


Dear Brian, that article is about what we know, not about what we don't know. As a scientist, I agree that any fact can be questioned, but there is a threshold for what we consider "knowledge", and in this question, the threshold is long passed. If start adding such tags[dubious ], then most wikipedia articles will be unreadable. Best regards. NIMSoffice (talk) 23:28, 24 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Why does this, as you claim at Talk:Carbon#Life on Earth, belong here? Brian Jason Drake 02:11, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

It's not just that you tried to make them write back, it's that the way you asked that question seems likely to upset them, and therefore likely to tempt them to write something nasty back. Brian Jason Drake 03:42, 2 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

You had made a request on en.wiki to have the higher resolution version of the File:Valéry Inkijinoff.jpg restored so you can transfer it to Commons.
