Hello. Please don't copy articles like you just did for the two Thai provinces. If you think that Pathum Thani Province and Pathum Thani province should be the same article, then you can make the first one a Redirect - simply put

#redirect [[Pathum Thani province]]

as the sole contents of the article. Another way would be to move the article - however it's usual here to have as few capitals as possible in the title. andy 14:43, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Sources for Lumber room

Hello, some time ago you added a fair bit of content to Lumber room. As you may be aware, we are currently trying to improve Wikipedia's accuracy and reliability by making sure articles cite the sources used to created them. Do you remember what websites, books, or other places you learnt the information that you added to Lumber room? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 17:12, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Nouveau riche

Hi, I noticed your recent edit to nouveau riche. It's great—except the last paragraph reads somewhat weird. I can't really understand what you're trying to say there, do you think you could try and clarify it? Thanks. --Qviri (talk) 14:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

I see now. Thanks for the clarification. I edited the sentence in the article slightly. Hopefully it makes it a bit better; let me know if there are any problems with that. --Qviri (talk) 12:58, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Maxims on authoritarianism

Hey, if you could provide some sources for the Maxims on authoritarianism article and change the format to fit the guidelines, that would be great. Thanks. -Cheapestcostavoider 07:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

This article is now being considered for deletion --Cheapestcostavoider 00:59, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Pistol effect?

What was your sources for pistol effect? Google comes up with nothing. This seems like a neologism. It needs to be either redirected or deleted if that's the case. - JustSomeKid 01:55, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

I think pistol effect is from John Clute's Encyclopedia of Fantasy, which I was reading at the time I came across the page on "plot coupons". --Sobolewski 23:58, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Hodgepodge

Thanks for using the word "hodgepodge" in your recent edit summary on the dashboard article. You really made me smile — I haven't seen that word in far too long :-) – Kieran T ^(talk) 16:18, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Neutronium

Please, what does the abbreviation "scil." mean? On Jan.14, 2006, you added the following phrase to the article on Neutronium: "(scil., before the discovery of the neutron itself)" If scil. actually means something, the word should be spelled out since it is a very unusual abbreviation. If not then it should be deleted. Dirac66 02:23, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Beauty and Warrior

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Beauty and Warrior. 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(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Beauty and Warrior. 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.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 21:46, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Lesla-Lar

The article Lesla-Lar has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.
