Book of the New Sun
The problem I have with all these sub-genres ans sub-sub-genres is they have no clear definitions and limits. Probably the best definition is that the genre is assigned by what is hoped will create the largest sales: is s-f big it's s-f; is fantasy big it's s-fantasy; could it sell as mainstream then s-f and fantasy disappear from the cover; and is the author known as a s-f writer then his historical novel is gonna be in the s-f section of the bookstore. But I don't think that idea would fly well in the articles.Nitpyck (talk) 00:21, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
File:Information.svg Hello Jplatt39! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 0 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the Template:Tl tag. Here is the article:

Harold Gray
Hey there, I saw your message about the Harold Gray page. Said vandalism has now been reverted. To do this yourself, go to the history page and compare diffs until you find a stable version, and edit (and save) that page with an edit summary something like "reverting back to last stable version". Hope that helps! -- Casmith_789 (talk) 12:07, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for March 17
Hi. When you recently edited Bau (singer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sao Vicente (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ

Hello, Jplatt39. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Charles W. Schwartz, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this: Template:Tlc
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Ad Orientem (talk) 21:52, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom 2017 election voter message
The article Jim Keefe has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
BLP cites only one non-independent source. Search revealed no significant coverage in independent sources.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the Template:Tlc notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing Template:Tlc 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.
