AfD nomination of List of Christian metal bands

An editor has nominated List of Christian metal bands, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Christian metal bands and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 15:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikimedia Australia incorporation meeting

Hi there Kevin! As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation has recently approved Wikimedia Australia as an official chapter. In order to acknowledge this, and to appoint an interim committee, approve our statement of purpose and our rules, and appoint a Public Officer, Wikimedia Australia will be having a meeting at Computerbank in Melbourne. For those of us who are located in other cities, we shall be holding conference calls to the main meeting. The meeting will be held at 2:30PM on Sunday, 20th April 2008, Adelaide time. In order for us to organise this meeting, we need your help! Please drop by at our meta subpage with suggestions as to venues, conference calling services, etc. It will be at 2:30 so we can meet up for lunch beforehand if anyone's open for that! Hoping to see you there! ~ Riana ⁂ 01:56, 20 March 2008 (UTC) You are receiving this message because you are an active Wikimedian in Adelaide and are on this list. If you think I've missed anyone out, please feel free to copy-paste this and send it to them too!

Company Notability

Thanks for the tip on notability. I added a few references to the Avake Technology article and I will add more as I find them. This company is fairly new so it might be a bit difficult. Additionally, this company has started its website in India and therefore, there is less media coverage on the matter. But I will keep looking! Thanks. Thetalonofthewest (talk) 00:59, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

No problem. One or two print articles would really help assert notability. Cheers Kevin (talk) 01:54, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Notability

orange talk and fisher queen has constantly deleted my article.. kevin, what can i do? i already put an introduction stating what it is about.. a reference/guide on what to expect about the said program. also, it came from a notable source. plus, i added the underconstruction bit so it won't get deleted immediately, meaning it's a work in progress.. :( Imcb1925 (talk) 18:31, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

This editor seems to be under a complete misunderstanding as to what Wikipedia is about. I've given him/her a link to the list of things which Wikipedia is not, but apparently my message is not getting through. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:53, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I've left another note trying to summarize what we have all said on their talk page, so I guess we'll see what happens. Kevin (talk) 22:23, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Redirect during an AfD

While I am all for boldness, per the Guide to Deletion:" You should not turn the article into a redirect. A functioning redirect will overwrite the AFD notice. It may also be interpreted as an attempt to "hide" the old content from scrutiny by the community." Although I am sure you it was done in good faith, I have reverted your redirect so the AfD can progress. Beeblbrox (talk) 23:23, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

This talk page is becoming very long. Please consider archiving.

Thanks for the reminder. I was thinking of something else this morning. I take your point on the page length also. Kevin (talk) 23:46, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Prostitution in Europe

I'm going to re-write the article so that the longer parts (such as Prostitution in the UK) are shorter, and have a "Main Article" link to the corresponding articles, and change the short articles into redirects into the Main article. (because a 15 word article shouldn't be allowed on wikipedia...)- -[The Spooky One] | ^{[t c r]} 05:08, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good. You're probably better off just being bold, rather than nominating anything for deletion though. Kevin (talk) 05:11, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. I just got done with the hard part. Now all i have left is the boring tasks, such as changing all those darned external links into references. btw, in order to let people know you've responded to there message on Your talkpage, use the talkback template, which can be found Here. - -[The Spooky One] | ^{[t c r]} 05:58, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you mean something like the blue box at the top there? I generally don't duplicate my talk comments unless it's for a new user who might not find them otherwise. For everyone else, I reply where they do. Kevin (talk) 06:11, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I've found it helpful at times.

{{Talkback|your username|section}} is just helps keep everyone in touch. {{Talkback|Kevin|Prostitution in Europe}}would be appropriate to place on my talk page if responding to this message. - -[The Spooky One] | ^{[t c r]} 21:17, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Prod

I'm contesting the prod (no hard feelings) - feel free to take to AFD if you like ;) Domain of lighting (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 11:06, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Sure, that's the whole point of the prod. I think this may be better in the article about the place though. Kevin (talk) 11:09, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
