Hi just to let you know I removed your speedy delete tag, because in order for something to be speedied, there must be no claim of notability. This article said he was one of the "greatest" at what he does, which is probably nonsense. You might find [[WP:CSD]] helpful-- I think I'll go ahead and [[WP:PROD|prod]] it, while keeping it on my watchlist in case it's removed. Happy editing!

==[[Kintera]] and [[User:Anne.davis]]== |
|||
Hi. Earlier today [[User:Anne.davis]] created the [[Kintera]] page which is heavily advertisementish. You duly nominated it for Speedy, and she then removed the tag. Some time later I added a <nowiki>{{advert}}</nowiki> tag - and she removed it. I've re-added it and done a spot of research. Kintera may actually be notable - I'm looking at [[WP:CORP]] and am not sure about the non-trivial ... well - there's [http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/oct2005/tc2005107_4051_tc024.htm a Business Week] article; [http://www.nonprofitmatrix.com/news.asp?ID=369 some stuff from the Non-Profit Matrix], and [http://www.nsfre.org/ka/ka-3.cfm?content_item_id=19888&folder_id=887 a partnership with AFP], among the other interesting-ish reports. So I'm not sure what a suitable action is. I don't want to AFD the page (I don't feel sufficiently sure that it's non-notable), and certainly I don't think Speedy's appropriate. But I'm really not sure what's the best thing to do and I'd appreciate your eye on it again. Thanks. --[[User:JennyRad|JennyRad]] 21:30, 12 July 2006 (UTC) |
Revision as of 21:30, 12 July 2006
Just because you don't know much about a subject, in this case law schools, does not make an article on the most popular website in this subject not notable enough. Ask a law student whether 4LawSchool.com is notable and you'll get your answer! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mylaw911 (talk • contribs)
- Unfortunately, advertising is not permitted on Wikipedia, and your claim to being the "most popular website on the subject" is laughable at best. The page met the 7th criteria for speedy deletion: "Unremarkable people or groups/vanity pages. An article about a real person, group of people, band, or club that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject." - Kookykman|(t)e 17:51, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- It's not my responsibility to point you to a notable law website, as I am not creating an article on said websites. If you, however, are able to provide mentions in the mainstream press about the website, your article will be gladly accepted. - Kookykman|(t)e 18:01, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Again, I'm not talking about a law related website. I'm talking about a website on "law schools" and "law students." Sadly, you will not find many articles in the "mainstream press" (very subjective term, BTW) on this small niche. Anyways, there is no point in arguing. Have a nice day.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mylaw911 (talk • contribs)
- Unfortunately, that "subjective term" isn't mine. From our website notability policies: "This criterion includes reliable published works in all forms, such as newspaper and magazine articles, books, television documentaries, and published reports by consumer watchdog organizations.". - Kookykman|(t)e 18:10, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for your help.
- No problem. It's always nice to be able to have a civil discussion with a fellow contributor. - Kookykman|(t)e 18:16, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Safety
Lol! Did you make it? — Deckiller 18:37, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah. Had to. The YTMND-sense was overpowering. It's hanging in there at a 3.65/5 rating. =p - Kookykman|(t)e
3RR Warning
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you.--digital_me(TalkˑContribs) 17:09, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fine, I've changed it to a link. But this is an attempt by the aforementioned users to sweep this under the rug, not a just revert! - Kookykman|(t)e 17:11, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Speedy
Hi just to let you know I removed your speedy delete tag, because in order for something to be speedied, there must be no claim of notability. This article said he was one of the "greatest" at what he does, which is probably nonsense. You might find WP:CSD helpful-- I think I'll go ahead and prod it, while keeping it on my watchlist in case it's removed. Happy editing! AdamBiswanger1 18:02, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
