Helpme

edit

{{helpme}} I've placed my new article under User:Alaskah/KIDO'Z as I've understood that this is the place for editing assistance before it goes live and can possibly be deleted. Can I please request for someone to review this article called KIDO'Z to make sure that it is within the Wikipedia standards.

Many thanks

Hi Alaskah, I've adjusted your comment to include a link to the subpage. Hope that's ok. PhilKnight (talk) 16:35, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Hey, just a question. Has this article beed deleted in the past or is this the first version?--Gordonrox24 | Talk 16:49, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
KIDO'Z was deleted because of concerns about being advertising. PhilKnight (talk) 16:52, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'm curious as to how User:Alaskah/KIDO'Z compares to the deleted version? I wouldn't call the current version "pure advert". Jozal (talk) 16:59, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Same here. It looks decent right now and I think some more references could be found if need be.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 17:05, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I've restored the history, so you can compare the previously deleted version to the current version. PhilKnight (talk) 23:37, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

(←)I just had a quick read through of the article. It looks very good with the references (shows it is indeed notable), but the prose needs a little work. Perhaps a little more organization with regards to what ideas are in each section. A little organization and I'm sure it'll be fine to move to the main (article) space.

{{helpme}} Thanks to everyone for your valuable assistance. Killiondude, please can you elaborate a little on how you feel I should organize the prose a little? I've added in a Heading called 'Features' - will this suffice? Also, I've read through the Move article but cannot locate the move tab to move this into the main article space? Many thanks Alaskah (talk)

Hello again, the "move" tab is located at the top of article above the title, next to the "histroy" tab. Hope that helps. Jozal (talk) 13:04, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'm guessing that your account isn't autoconfirmed, because you have nine edits, and the requirement is ten. After your next edit, the move tab should appear. PhilKnight (talk) 13:15, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm the one who deleted the original article. The article looks good. The only comment I have is that as someone who does lots of disambiguation, I'd love to see all of the language links be disammed before it goes to article space so I don't have to do it. :) I.e. [[English language|English]] instead of [[English]], etc. --User:Woohookitty Diamming fool! 13:13, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I've taken care of Woohookitty's suggestions, thanks for your input. Jozal (talk) 13:21, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • I would glady move it into the mainspace for you if you wish.--Gordonrox24 | Talk 17:08, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks Gordonrox24 - I would really appreciate it if you could move it into the main space for me. Thanks everyone for all your help. Alaskah (talk) 05:37, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Done!--Gordonrox24 | Talk 06:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
