[edit] Re 12/0
Apparently, the site now shows a chart without the /0 part. I find it less likely that the chart was changed so quickly than that the site covered its rear end by photoshopping the image and burying any trace of criticism. Oh well, what can you expect from a site that sold such a chart in the first place. -- Meni Rosenfeld (talk) 19:27, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] PrefixNE
Hi. Thanks for keeping an eye out for spam articles!
I removed the speedy tag since the article asserts notability with the links to reviews in magazines. It still has a lot of problems, however, which I have tagged.
When you "speedy" an article, it's always good to give article creators a {{spam-warn}} notice warning them of imminent deletion:
- It's a courtesy
- It gives them feedback on what not to do if they want to recreate the article
- It leaves a record of the deletion on the user's talk page should he add more of the same articles in the future.
Again, thanks for patrolling for this sort of article.

[edit] AfD for Wilmington Montessori School
Andrew, You initially and correctly put a Speedy on my first wikipedia article - Wilmington Montessori School - this past Saturday. I began my first wiki entry (for WMS) by viewing most of the other articles for sister schools in the Mid-Atlantic region. At the time, I was unaware of WP:WAX and WP:N, as such, my first entries mirrored many of those articles and did not carry much weight for notability even though I was providing as much or more information than other representative schools (again, unaware of WP:WAX .. and WP:V, WP:N, WP:RS, and even the proposed guideline Wikipedia:Notability (schools) that could provide at least a minimal starting point for a proper article). Since that time I have been reviewing many of the WP policies and guidelines and have also been revising the article with the help of other editors and have completed the following,
- Two other editors cleaned up any promotional material. I also removed a debatable claim that was not backed with secondary sources.
- Several secondary sources have been added.
- New reference added, although written by the current head of school, it is a doctoral dissertation and probably falls under WP:V "Academic and peer-reviewed publications are highly valued" and WP:RS Scholarship.
- Two additional references from independent educational associations, Tomorrow's Child published by The Montessori Foundation and Montessori Life published by The American Montessori Society are periodicals and could not be considered extremist or self-published by WMS; therefore, they also could fall under WP:V and WP:RS
- Two additional references regarding national grants - the first by the US Environmental Protection Agency; and, the second by Toyota and the National Science Teacher's Association.
- Added Montessori Life reference that "Wilminglon [sic] Montessori School ... Delaware's oldest and largest Montessori school..." [1]
With the additional recent work toward establishing notability and the additional comments by other experienced editors, I would appreciate if you could review Wilmington Montessori School, Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_deletion/Wilmington_Montessori_School, and Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Wilmington_Montessori_School and provide your opinion.
Regards. --Daddy.twins (talk) 12:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Comradio Speedy Delete
(Note: the following was relocated from your User page. --Daddy.twins (talk) 22:26, 14 February 2008 (UTC))
Hello.
Comradio is not an attempt to blatantly advertise a for-profit organization. It is part of an education institution and teaches students the fundemenals of Radio. I would ask for help in creating a better page rather than deleting it immediately because ComRadio is a well known station that many people may want to learn more about.

- Comment - added comment to the ComRadio Talk Page regarding speedy delete and possible merge solution. --Daddy.twins (talk) 22:23, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Glina massacre
I agreed with your comments about Glina massacre, which you nominated for deletion, so I've completely rewritten the article. I'd like to invite you to review the revised article and if you're amenable, to withdraw Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Glina massacre as being superseded. -- ChrisO (talk) 10:40, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] SuperAntiSpyware
This article is less than what my article had. It needs to be deleted by your criterion. Family Guy Guy (talk) 06:52, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Reporting House
Hi, you put a Speedy Delete tag on Reporting House this afternoon, which was removed by the writer. I tagged it this evening (not realising you had already done so) and it was again removed. I have just re-tagged it, but have no faith that the tag will stay in place for very long. Is there anyone this should be reported to? --seahamlass 18:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

- The writer has just put a hang-on onto the speedy tag - and reverted my recent edit, which deleted the fake Wikimedia Commons and Wikiquote refs. I'll keep an eye on it too. cheers!--seahamlass 18:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Harmony
Hello, sorry for not understanding Wikipedia's policy on external links correctly: being a no-profit website, where a project open to any new collaboration/collaborators is proposed without any sort of commercial (or any other form of) advertisement, I thought the link could be useful and of a certain public interest. Yes, I can realize now that a conflict may arise between my "private interests", as a programmer, and Wikipedia's obligations. So, I apologize for my disagreeable inattention, and thank you for your kindness. --Faustotorre (talk) 11:18, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Embedded marketing
Hi. I have taken care of the concerns that you raised at this afd. Would you care to reanalyze your opinion? Thanks,--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
The big problem here is that the original creation of this article was a spammy effort to WP:COATRACK an ad for somebody's parent company, which sells this vile service. I have nothing against using it as a redirect, since the COI is thus defeated, and it's pretty clear that the term is in use by the Evil Empire, among others, independent of the spammer's employer. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:09, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
