Thank you for the warm welcome, I have been a long time reader of wikipedia articles and I finally decided to join with a username of my own. So are you saying that if I simply place this: (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) at the end of a message in a discussion that it would automatically sign my name so that I don't have to continuously go through the whole process of having to type it all? I'm going to try it here. [[User:Sebastian80|Sebastian80]] ([[User talk:Sebastian80|talk]]) 19:48, 14 September 2011 (UTC) |

Re: Edmond Halley. You could've left that 24 hours or so, surely? TNUK (talk) 03:03, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- No, I could not. Danger (talk) 03:06, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- I suppose I understand, but... it's sad, nonetheless. Still, I've had my fun.TNUK (talk) 05:36, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello, Danger … Since Gorak anush (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) has been delete three times this month (and twice as Anush gorak (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)), and the author can't seem to take the hint, would you please WP:SALT it? Thnx. Happy Editing! — 71.166.154.41 (talk · contribs) 17:01, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
- Done. Thank you; I should have caught that. Danger (talk) 20:38, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
- No problem … you would have to either check the authors' talk pages, or else check the logs, for every article you intend to CSD, and that is usually not necessary since the vast majority of them are first-timers … and again, beau coup thanks. :-) — 71.166.154.41 (talk) 21:47, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
- Well, I'm supposed to do that but have been lax. Bad entity. --Danger (talk) 22:49, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Questions about Verified Audit Circulation/speedy deletion
Hello, Danger-
Thanks for objecting to the speedy deletion of my entry for Verified Audit Circulation, which is one of the most prominent companies in circulation auditing.
FYI, I have made some changes to the wording of the entry that will hopefully make its reasons for notability more apparent.
I am fairly new to Wikipedia, so this is the first time that I have had an article named for speedy deletion, and I'm hoping that you would clarify some things about this process.
On my user page, I can still see the blurb that the entry is slated for speedy deletion, but I don't see any longer the notice that speedy deletion has been contested.
Does that mean this article is at risk for speedy deletion still?
Also, when I go to the article itself, I don't see any kind of messages at the head of the article talking about prospective deletion/objection to deletion. Does a speedy deletion blurb not appear with the article itself, or is this a sign that speedy deletion is no longer at issue?
I appreciate any information you can provide--and your support for the entry on Verified Audit Circulation.
Thanks again.

- Hi Sean. You can ignore the notice on your talk page. The article is only up for speedy deletion if there is a notice on the article itself. It is possible that in the future someone will propose the article for speedy deletion again, so you may get another notice if that happens.
- I strongly suggest that you take a look at this page for ideas on how to improve Verified Audit Circulation. If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask. Danger (talk) 23:02, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, Danger- Thanks for the information and for the link to the page on citing sources, which I will work in my contributions. I am also searching for more third-party references that would support notability of the Verified entry. Seandalytx (talk) 14:49, 1 September 2011 (UTC)seandalytx

Parental Advice...
Hi Parent,
If you get a spare min, would you have a peer over my shoulder at [Talk:Optical_Express] it was a COI and I've got involved to try and mediate: I could do with someone checking I'm not being an ass :( Failedwizard (talk) 17:04, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- I emphatically think you're not being an ass. If anything, I would be a little more firm with the conflicted contributor(s) regarding what Wikipedia is for (i.e. Dispensing previously published knowledge, not to cater to his employer's PR department.). The article does seem to overemphasize the failings of OE, though I'm more inclined to add more information than to trim what's there. Financials, neutral descriptions of company offerings, that sort of thing. Maybe rearranging some of the text could provide a better context; the proseline is awkward and makes the article seem more like a list of what OE has done wrong. But I didn't look at the conflict in detail, just at your contributions, so I'm not sure how much my opinion is worth. Apologies, real life is very distracting right now.
- Heh... parent. That's amusing. Good luck. Danger (talk) 22:01, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
