I would love to adopt you. Check out Wikipedia:Adoption and let me know if you'd like the appropriate userbox added to your user page. All the best! Kntrabssi 22:55, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Well done! That's exactly what I was talking about. Your user page is looking really good! Is there anything else I can help you with? Kntrabssi 23:44, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The NIV Adventure Bible

The article The NIV Adventure Bible has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 23:43, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on The NIV Adventure Bible, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how The NIV Adventure Bible is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:The NIV Adventure Bible saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. Cquan (talk, AMA Desk) 23:56, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself, as you did with The NIV Adventure Bible. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you.

[edit] Vandal

• On your talk page, you don't have a final warning yet. In fact, you have only hit a level 1 warning out of 4 levels. I would suggest not removing tags, especially speedy deletion tage, but to add the tag {{hangon}} on the page, which will contest the speedy deletion. If you have any more problems, please contact me! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kntrabssi (talk • contribs)

[edit] The NIV Adventure Bible, continued

OK, your first version of the article started like this: "What Makes This Bible So Great". That conflicts with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. The second and third versions were about 5 words long -- the last one said "This is a good Bible." An article needs to describe the subject and explain why it's notable. See, for example, the entries New Revised Standard Version and The Living Bible. Take a look at those articles (and, in general, other Wikipedia articles) before trying to create your own.

[edit] WikiProject Ohio Newsletter

Issue II - May 2008
From the editor: Here's Issue II of the project newsletter. We're trying to decide if this is sinking or floating. If you would like to contribute to next month's newsletter please jump right in at the News Desk! Have a great May. The Ohio Portal The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images. Selected Article: Indian Head Rock There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it. With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value. After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river. Billy Massie	Article Assessment Reedy Bot and ShepBot are currently hard at work tagging all of the Ohio articles.
