Usenet cleanup?

Hey, a while back you marked the Usenet article as needing cleanup (here), but you did not leave a message on the Talk:Usenet page explaining what needed cleanup. I'd be interested in doing the cleanup and removing the cleanup tag, but I don't know why it got the tag in the first place. Could you please clarify what needs to be cleaned up (assuming it hasn't been cleaned up already) on the Talk:Usenet page? Thanks. -- HiEv 18:55, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Ads in userboxes

Hello. I think that some of your userboxes fall on the side of advertising, rather than expressing personal preferences. I know that it's your user page, and that "this user likes Coke" just means that you like Coke, but the fact that it's in a box, in color, and in large letters, makes it look too much like an ad. Could you please remove those userboxes and present your preferences on things like that in text, if you think they're important enough for your Wikipedia identity to deserve a mention?

June 2007 WP:Films Newsletter

File:Transparent film reel and film.png The Films WikiProject Newsletter Volume II, no. 6 - June 2007
Project News We have now reached over 27,600 film articles that have been assessed by our assessment department! Remember to always add the {{Film|class=}} template to a film article's talk page so the project can get a better idea of what work still needs to be done. Below is a table showing a breakdown of our articles by class and importance. As a result of recent discussions and polls on the use of the spoiler warning, the template should not be added to "Plot" or "Synopsis" related sections as the heading makes the use of the spoiler template redundant. For more information, see Wikipedia:Spoiler. The current Cinema Collaboration of the week is Monster. Go to the article page to help contribute on improving the article and visit the CCOTW page to vote on the next collaboration. Current candidates include 1960s in film, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Final Destination, and The Departed. Wikipedia:Good article candidates could use more assistance in reducing the backlog. There are currently several film-related articles that can be reviewed by any editor, as long as they follow the requirements of the GA criteria. Please help determine if the nominees are GA-quality. Spotlight Update: Multiple films and film-related articles have reached GA and FA status in June 2007. We now have over 50 featured articles! Kung Fu Hustle (6/1) Miranda Otto (6/1) "She Shoulda Said 'No'!"
