Land of Opportunity help

Hey,

I moved the Land of Opportunity film page to my sandbox. How do I now request that it be created? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ameliasenter (talk • contribs) 20:14, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

About the Molly Moccasins page

Hi,

I was wondering if you could give me an example of a reliable source. I've tried posting two pages now and they've both been denied for this reason. Thanks in advance for your help!

Article "Future shock"

There is no concrete information about contents of Toffler's book in the article "Future Shock". Therefore I decided to create separate article about this book with a statement of the contents of this book. Need I transfer contents of my article to the article "Future Shock"?

Welcome to MILHIST

Hello and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you are interested, or you can add it directly to your user page by copying the following: {{WPMILHIST Announcements}}.
Important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, writing contests, and article logistics.
We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
We've developed a set of guidelines that cover article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
If you're looking for something to work on, there are many articles that need attention, as well as a number of review alerts.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the project coordinators or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! Anotherclown (talk) 07:14, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Solfeggio frequencies

Thanks for the note. What happened was I deleted that in an Afd, then redirected the page to another article. Then a new user User:MusicBuzzer changed it from a redirect to an article. I've changed it back to a redirect and protected it so this doesn't happen again. MusicBuzzer also pasted the whole article into Leonard Horowitz, I've reverted him there too. Do you think you could leave him a note about recreating deleted articles, etc.? Mark Arsten (talk) 17:09, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Left him a note. Howicus (talk) 17:19, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mariah Carey's fourteenth studio album

The user who is intent that he is right is doing my head in! — AARON • ^TALK 22:01, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I agree with that user in one respect: you're making too big of a deal about this. Just wait, and think of what the closing admin will see: a WP:TOOSOON article being defended by a new user with no understanding of policy, while several editors who've been here a while advocate for deletion. Just stop responding: I don't think the article is going to be kept just based on the actions of that one user. Howicus (talk) 23:38, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Questions

Hi,

Pertaining to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Iowa_State_University_College_of_Agriculture_and_Life_Sciences

I had a couple questions:

First, you suggested the reference be outside the college. It is a book, which was published and is reproduced on the university web site.

I followed the example of other colleges linked to the university Wikipedia page and those reference the histories of the colleges on their web sites.

Thanks,

EdEdaisu (talk) 19:16, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I said sources, plural. Just one book isn't enough to source an article. Howicus (talk) 22:02, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Starfox

Sorry if I misunderstood your message, but yes I think it's weird to call it aviation-themed, even if you're flying a spaceship. Aviation is a pretty broad thing and entails many things centered around air craft. It's a bit like calling the film Scarfaced "gun-themed". The only thing you're doing in Starfox which relates to aviation is flying in them to fight. NothingInTheSun (talk) 00:34, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Civility is always appreciated

		The Civility Barnstar
		Thanks; your civility and unwillingness to contribute to drama, while still thinking and attempting to work with others, greatly impressed me. I had to think about it, and I would not be staying, even with the kindness of a few other editors, but for seeing how sanely one individual can act under the circumstances. AfadsBad (talk) 17:46, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, thanks. That really makes me feel good about editing, I mean it. Howicus (talk) 19:54, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Where's the like button? Keep it up, please. --AfadsBad (talk) 20:06, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can "thank" people for edits, like I just did for your last edit here. Howicus (talk) 20:10, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how you do that. Someone else thanked for me editing a plant article. Where do you do this? --AfadsBad (talk) 20:18, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Look in the revision history, it's right next to "undo." Howicus (talk) 20:20, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

D. Harold article

Hello,

regarding your question of the deletion of the article for D. Harold McNamara or Delbert H. McNamara - please delete the article under the name "Delbert H. McNamara". I created a new article under the name "D. Harold McNamara" since this is how he is most commonly referred to in other Wikipedia articles and to avoid confusion with his father, Delbert McNamara.

Thanks T8yq2B96
