Welcome

I saw that no one has officially welcomed you to the site, so let me be the first to say hello and welcome to the site. --ZeWrestler Talk 17:06, 20 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

Tommie Frazier

Thanks for your input on Tommie Frazier! It is common among college football coach articles to include an external link to schools where the coach currently and previously has coached. It's left there for reference purposes and is useful for those who research college football history. I reverted the edit and placed the link back.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:07, 8 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Harold Miner article

I see that you recently removed the source information from the Harold Miner article, due to the the fact that the web link to the source article in the Los Angeles Times was no longer valid. Unfortunately, though, removing the entire source information like that then leaves the article completely unsourced, which is not satisfactory. If a linked web page is found to be dead, it's better to simply remove the web link from the source listing, rather than remove the entire source listing. I've gone ahead and done that now. 12.155.58.181 (talk) 19:40, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Deleting article on Paxus Calta

Dearest Duke33:

You asked why the articles about me exists. The question has been asked before and the article was proposed for deletion and the discussion of why it was kept is here

After this decision and some conversations with the adminstrator who proposed it be deleted, i edited it back quite a bit. And he was satisfied with these edits and said if they had been in place before he proposed the deletion, it would not have been necessary to propose it - see here

Earlier on when i was editing this article, in part to teach myself about wikipedia, i was introduced to the rules about editing articles about yourself, which is not prohibited. It is basically prohibited to start an article about yourself, which i did not do. See here

So you could propose to delete it again, if you really wanted to. Since not long after the last proposal to delete, i have mostly stayed out of this article and some others have edited it.

I've been in discussions about several articles about personalities and their encyclopedic worth, generally being an author is enough. You are of course free to edit the article and cut it back as you see appropriate.

And i am happy to talk with you more about this if you like --Paxuscalta (talk) 02:13, 10 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
