More about splitting

Hi. :) I note that you recently performed a split of material to the article Slinky Dog (Toy Story), and I just wanted to drop you a note to point out a few things about the procedure. As Wikipedia:Split sets out, when we split material, we have to provide a direct link to the source article. This is necessary because Wikipedia's contributors do not release their material into public domain, but retain rights to authorship under the terms of GFDL. This wikilink satisfies that requirement by allowing readers to access the history and see who contributed what and when. Usually, we put into the edit summary something along the lines of "Split from List of Toy Story characters". Then, we note the split as well in an edit summary at the source article. That would read like "Material split to Slinky Dog (Toy Story)", in this case. This helps make sure that the article is not later deleted, as it cannot be as long as the article to which the material has been split remains. With this split, I have simply deleted the new article, since all the material is still in the source article, and there doesn't yet seem to be consensus for a split. You might want to consider discussing the idea with other contributors at the list's talk page or at the talk page of the article on Toy Story. But I wanted to let you know for future use. Thanks, and if you have any questions about this, please feel free to leave a line at my talk page. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:15, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Josh Robles

A tag has been placed on Josh Robles requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. JohnCD (talk) 20:15, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

January 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Up (2009 film), did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

As I indicated in this edit summary, year ranges were changed to comply with Wikipedia's Manual of Style, or MOS as it is commonly known. You may wish to familiarise yourself with Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers), particularly the section dealing with year ranges. This will avoid edits such as this, which reverted the corrections, making the article non-compliant again. Regarding this edit, as explained in my earlier edit summary, use of a date range implies that she has appeared in a number of episodes. In reality, she has appeared in only two, one in 2008 and one in 2009 so "2008,2009" is more appropriate. If she appears in more episodes then conversion to a year range might be appropriate then. --AussieLegend (talk) 23:31, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

March 2009

Regarding this edit, please read the above again and please, do not make these changes again. --AussieLegend (talk) 16:19, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
