Speedy deletion of Mark Edward Lewis

A tag has been placed on Mark Edward Lewis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you look at User_talk:Arthurrh you'll see he has a habit of trying to get new articles deleted as soon as they're up. Luckily there's usually a more reasonable person around to remove his inappropriate tags before long.Quelcrime (talk) 23:15, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

John Day vs. John Daye disambiguation page.

Hi there, Quelcrime. I have started a section of the talk page of Talk:John Day about whether or not both of these spellings should be listed on the same page and I think it would be great if you responded there....though it could be that only you and I have an opinion. -Gwguffey (talk) 03:04, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

I responded on the John Day talk page and made some adjustments, though upon rereading your comment, I may have misread your thoughts. If you feel strongly that things should be set up differently than they are now (or should go back to the way they were), please change them and I won't object. -Gwguffey (talk) 14:55, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

It has been proposed that this articles be remerged. You should swing by Talk:John Daye and comment. Best wishes. -Gwguffey (talk) 14:43, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Revisited

Hi, Quelcrime. I hope you have been well since we last crossed paths. I was pruning my watchlist and saw our old friend John Day(e). A few months have passed since the conversation was opened and no one else has commented. Additionally, my thoughts on this have changed upon my current pondering of this topic. So, I no longer have any issues with merging the two pages and will adjust my commentary on the talk page to reflect that. Be well. --Gwguffey (talk) 05:33, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

AfD: Sharara

Hello. I suggested at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sharara that, per User:Pablomismo, encyclopedia users searching for either Attia Sharara or Shararat might come upon Sharara. I don't speak Urdu or Arabic, and I don't know whether Pablomismo does either, so I'm not sure whether I'm speaking out of my hat. Do you you happen to speak either language, or know of another editor who does and who we might ask to weigh in at the AfD? Thanks, Cnilep (talk) 17:48, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

identify

"identify" has usages that are transitive and intransitive. The construction you modified was not wrong. I will not revert it because there is also nothing wrong with your addition, but "identify" does have plenty of intransitive usages, and that was one of them. Thanks.
