Twice exceptional

edit

Hi there. Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Twice exceptional, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Twice exceptional. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Talk page guidlelines

edit

Based on a contribution you made at Talk:Grinnell College I'll suggest that the Talk page guidelines suggests that you should:

  • "Start new topics at the bottom of the page: If you put a post at the top of the page, it is confusing and can also get easily overlooked. The latest topic should be the one at the bottom of the page.
  • "Make a new heading for a new topic: It will then be clearly separated into its own section and will also appear in the TOC (table of contents) at the top of the page. A heading is easy to create with == either side of the words, as in == Heading ==. The "Post a comment" feature can be used to do this automatically. (If you're using the default Wikipedia:Skin, you can use the "+" tab next to the "Edit this page" tab instead.) Enter a subject/heading in the resulting edit page, and it will automatically become the section heading."

hope that helps. Pdbailey 20:53, 6 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Affirmative Action

edit

If, as currently appears to be the case, User:Psychohistorian insists on me starting an RFC on his conduct instead of accepting mediation, will you be willing to join me in that? To start an RFC requires that at least two parties say that they have tried and failed to work out the problem with the person. - Jmabel | Talk 02:33, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Double eyelid surgery

edit

The article already exists; it's actually at its "scientific" name, Asian blepharoplasty. ColourBurst 17:42, 27 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Grinnell College Rumors

edit

Regarding the radio to railroad tracks rumor, I read recently, I believe in the latest Grinnell Magazine, that the station got its licensed revoked for hooking up to the tracks and getting heard in St. Loius. Since you seem to be a dedicated wikier, and I'm lazy, I thought I'd tell you. I'm also kind of curious as to who you are. -Ian Bone-Rundle

Hey- I'll look that up. I should be able to scrounge a copy up somewhere... I prefer not to put my name out, so [woodschr] will have to do. Thanks for the tip! minidoxigirli-talk--contribs 03:44, 17 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
