Re: Modern Whig Party

edit

They have discuussed it on the forums.

I find your conclusion that veterans wouldn't be for freethought simply because the symbol of it is a pansy. Why would veterans not be for freethought and freewill?

Also, the MWP logo will always be the owl. Simply including another ideology that may have it's own symbol won't cahnge the party's logo.

Ok, but I am going to add Centrism. That is mentioned many times in on the Modern Whig website.

Just so you know, I'm adding "Middle Ground" to the MWP ideology which is mentioned numerous times on their website.

Who tried to change the MWP colors from Blue and Buff to Blue and Red?

Speedy deletion of Patent Process (United States)

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Patent Process (United States), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 17:10, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I agree with the {{hangon}} tag, let's try and help the author clean this article up rather than delete it outright. --Jakebathman (talk) 17:37, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I have replaced the speedy deletion tag with a Prod tag to give the author some time to clean up the article.--Jakebathman (talk) 17:37, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

With respect to your note at the article's talk page, we need external verification of said permission by one of the processes set out above. As indicated, please make a note at the article's talk page when that verification is supplied, but please do not edit the article or remove the "copyright template" before that verification is confirmed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:11, 3 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Hi. As it has now been more than seven days and the OTRS ticket has not been supplied for Reverse domain hijacking, I am restoring to the last verifiably clean. If there were problems with your permission, you should have been notified by a member of the communications committee in response to your e-mail. If you have heard nothing, perhaps your original correspondence was lost. Please consider resending that. If permission is verified through OTRS, then the material can be restored. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:56, 11 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
