Re:Spelling[edit]
Since the English Wikipedia draws members from all English speaking countries on earth the rule for English use is that there is to be no rule for english use. For this reason the spelling on the pages here tends to reflect a vareity of countries, from England English to Australian English and down to American English. Its for this same reason that the project does not allow automatic spell checker bots, as they would force on country’s spelling on all members of the group. In general, you use the English spelling that you came up with (in my case, thats American English) and trust that other members here will correct the mispelled words (if any) that you may have added. Hope that helps :) TomStar81 (Talk) 02:24, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Joel Rosenburg[edit]
Hi, Could you clarify why you've removed that section (again) from the article? It looks reasonably sourced and seems to have had significant coverage. Hobit (talk) 21:16, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks![edit]
I added a list of issues. Some might be too picky, but I do think the article started out as a praise of the man, and your edits made it more so. Fixable and thanks for asking. If you disagree with me, we can easily get some more eyes. I don't want to be dictating anything, but I also don't want to have a NPOV article not tagged. Hobit (talk) 03:37, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Popland[edit]
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Popland, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- Notability per WP:MUSIC
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

JR unprotect.[edit]
No problem at all. If the IPs come back, it can hit semiprotected status again. Just with BLPs we need to be careful. At the time, no one was watching it and it had remained in a bad state for quite a while. With you paying attention to it, you can revert any vandalism. Hobit (talk) 21:20, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Talkback[edit]
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Washington Times[edit]
Hi Nicholas! The Washington Times is proud of its conservative stance on social and political issues. It is also one of the things it is best-known for, so no need to remove that statement from the introduction. Steve Dufour (talk) 00:18, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
