Antisemitism

You added the following to the Antisemitism article:

Political Anti-Semitism is related to Racial anti-semitism. This form accuses Jews as being the founders and supporters of capitalism, communism, and liberalism. The concept was used to attract peasents (who saw Jews as equivalent to Bolsheviks and liberals), and some of the urban working-class, who viewed all Jews as dirty merchants and industrialists

Could you please specify the source(s) from whence this assertion came? We need to make sure that the assertions are verifiable. Dick Clark 20:40, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

John Luckas, Democracy and Populism, P. 64-65 explains the anti-liberalism. The Communist phobias are from FL Carsten, The Rise of Fascism,'s section on Hungary (I'll look for the page numbers). But I think overall, this assertions are clear in most studies of fascism and ant-semitism. GANDALF1992 20:50, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

FYI, I have removed this sentence from the intro. It is a pretext, not a reason for persecution. What's next, economic, cultural? AFAIK, Jews are not a political entity/party. If this "third" kind of AS is sourced and verified, it may deserve being mentioned somewhere in the article. If you strongly feel like continuing this discussion, let's do it at Talk:Anti-Semitism. Thanks. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 05:04, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Template on your userpage

I noticed there's a mistake on the {{User Pittsburgh}} template on your userpage, you put [[ instead of {{ in the beginnging of the template so it's not coming out. Thanks. -- SmthManly / ^ManlyTalk / ^{ManlyContribs} 23:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Kent-Meridian High School

Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kent-Meridian High School, I just thought you'd like to know that the consensus for deleting High School articles now appears to be swinging back in favor of deletion. So this may indicate the beginning of another campaign to remove most High School articles. Your opinion on the AfD article would be appreciated. It might be helpful if a notability standard for High Schools could be agreed upon. Thank you. — RJH (talk) 16:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Notability of A+ Schools

A tag has been placed on A+ Schools, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. RJASE1 ^Talk 22:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Pittsburgh event for Wikipedia's tenth anniversary

Hi! Since you're listed as a Wikipedian in Pittsburgh, I wanted to invite you to the Wikipedia Tenth Anniversary celebrations we're having in Pittsburgh on Saturday, January 15. During the daytime, we're going to be having a photo contribution drive where anyone can bring in their digital photos or prints and Wikipedians will teach people how to upload them and add them to articles, and maybe introduction to Wikipedia workshops as well. Then in the evening, we'll have fun at the Carson City Saloon. There will be free Wikipedia t-shirts and other goodies, as well. See the Pittsburgh meetup page for more details. I hope to see you there!--ragesoss (talk) 15:10, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Proposed deletion of Thinking Cap Quiz Bowl

The article Thinking Cap Quiz Bowl has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

competition article of unclear notability, lacking independent references, tagged for refs since 2014

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
