Hi, Izzygood. Re Sergei Bobrovsky, I re-ordered the categories, per Wikipedia:FAQ/Categorization #In what order should categories be listed within the article?. Go, Flyers! Eagle4000 (talk) 04:54, 12 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

emdashes and sorting

edit

Regarding this edit: diff I don't understand. I went back to the previous revision and tried it, and didn't notice any issues. What was the problem, exactly?

It sorts correctly the first time you click it. The second time the numbers go 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 34, 33, etc. The third time, 1, 10, 11, 14, etc. The fourth time it sorts correctly in reverse order. It repeats from there. --Izzygood (talk) 14:17, 27 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
ah, I see. :)

Colin Suellentrop and proposed deletion

edit

As it turns out, it's not required to have a reason for contesting a normal proposed deletion, as the previous editor did on this article. While I tend to agree that the article doesn't appear to meet the appropriate notability guidelines, but you'll have to take that to AfD as a matter of process. The relevant policy on this point is WP:DEPROD.

As a result, but I'll be reverting your reinstatement of the tag.

(One source of confusion on this point is WP:BLPPROD, which is similarly named and does require the addition of a source before removal, but it's a different tag with several other different requirements.)

Let me know if you need a hand listing this at WP:AFD.

All the best, --joe deckertalk to me 13:31, 28 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Harry Zolnierczyk

edit
 

The article Harry Zolnierczyk has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Rookie minor league hockey player who doesn't meet notability requirements per WP:NHOCKEY

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
