A tag has been placed on Stanislav zhukovsky requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it 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 page (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. Torchwood Who? (talk) 05:05, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for uploading File:NowYouSeeIt-TimesSq2009.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILYsock(TALK) 01:22, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Good work researching this. It's a mess; can you fix it? - Richard Cavell (talk) 11:41, 10 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for adding File:Norway-Stamp-1935-Fridtjof Nansen.jpg to the Nansen article. The article is still being constructed, and care and consideration needs to be given to the choice and placement of images. I have temporarily withdrawn the image, though I hope to reinstate it later when the article is in a more finished state. A better place for it might be the "Legacy" sction which has yet to be written, and for which I don't have an image at present. Incidentally, the present licensing of the image is wrong. There is a licence appropriate to postage stamps, though I can't remember offhand what it is, but this will need to be fixed before the image can be used.

I've just done some minor edits to the Red Rockers article. I introduced a History section (same as in The Clash) but I do not like the Later years section (it seems to me that the band has not disbanded yet.) What about "Aftermath: 1986–present"? It would be great to have a copyright FREE photo of the band for the band template. I like to use {{Cite book}}, {{Cite journal}} and {{Cite web}} for citing sources so they will be formatted automatically, but many editors do not like those templates because of their code. There is currently no consensus on a preferred citation style or system for Wikipedia, but the following one works well: Author Surname, Author First name (yyyy). Title in italics. Publisher location: Publisher. p. X.
ORpp. X-X. ISBN X-XXXXXX-XX-X.
If you need help or you are not sure about something, and for everything else, feel free to drop me a message. Cheers. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 09:40, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is not very difficult to use those templates. For example, the most commonly used fields in {{Cite book}} are: {{cite book |title= |last= |first= |authorlink= |coauthors= |year= |publisher= |location= |isbn= |page= |pages= |url= |accessdate= }}
If you want to cite pages 12-14 of the book Flashbacks to Happiness: Eighties Music Revisited written by Randolph Michaels and published in 2005 by iUniverse located in Lincoln, NE, United States (ISBN=0595370071; OCLC=62869054). Then simply copy all these values into the template: {{cite book |title=Flashbacks to Happiness: Eighties Music Revisited |last=Michaels |first=Randolph |authorlink= |coauthors= |year=2005 |publisher=iUniverse |location=Lincoln, NE, United States |isbn=0595370071 |page= |pages=12-14 |url= |accessdate=Ocotber 2, 2010 (OR 2 October 2010 for articles written in British English —"The Clash" for example) }}
...remove the unused fields (or leave them as they are) and it will produce:
Michaels, Randolph (2005). Flashbacks to Happiness: Eighties Music Revisited. Lincoln, NE, United States: iUniverse. pp. 12–14. ISBN 0595370071. {{cite book}}
: |access-date=
requires |url=
(help); Check date values in: |accessdate=
(help); Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors=
(help)
I frequently use WorldCat to get the correct values.
{{Cite web}} is easier to use. The most commonly used fields are: {{Cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate= }}
...so {{Cite web |url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SteveStrummer |title=User:SteveStrummer |author=SteveStrummer |date=Ocotber 2, 2010 |work= |publisher=Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |accessdate=October 2, 2010 }}
...will produce:
SteveStrummer (Ocotber 2, 2010). "User:SteveStrummer". Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Retrieved October 2, 2010. {{cite web}}
: Check date values in: |date=
(help)
Enclose one of those templates between the opening and closing tags for the REF element <ref>template code here</ref>
(and eventually give it a name <ref name="SteveStrummer">...
for reusing it: <ref name="SteveStrummer" />
) and you will get those references become visible in the references list at the bottom of an article, if there is one of course. The greatest advantage in using those citation templates is that we can change the citation style simply by changing the code of the citation templates and not millions of inline citations scattered here and there on 3,431,292 articles. Well, this is much more complicated to explain than it is to use (^___^)!
Please, next time use the {{Talkback}} template by placing it on my talk page, so I will be notified that you have responded or have a question (here) on your own talk page. All the best. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 17:57, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I was trying to help you with this article and I searched the web for "Rat Finks" "Red Rockers". I haven't found a lot of info regarding this band, but there is an interesting article about the Rock scene in New Orleans (better link from the official website of the magazine). It's from OffBeat, a New Orleans magazine. I added it to the first section, second paragraph of the article. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 09:54, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The main difference is that VCITE does not generate COinS metadata (and there should be a reason why standard templates generate metadata). But, using the VCITE template implies:
1. It generates a non-standard output (it probably is good for articles about medicine and for citing sources such as medical journals. Personally, I think that doctors do not write well because their writing style is not understandable to a general audience (take a look at their prescriptions ~ hahaha) and the Vancouver system exactly reflects this;
2. authors and coauthors need to be manually formatted because VCITE does not have last1, first1, last2, first2 parameters as well as many others.
The Vancouver system is specifically designed for publications in the medical field. Wikipedia is not a medical or scientific publication, so, even in the presence of a reference to publications of that type, and also considering that there is no consensus in Wikipedia about which citation style to use, IMHO it is best practice to use the same method already in use in an article.

HiSteveStrummer! As a member of The Clash WikiProject I thought I would let you know that The Clash portal went live today 9 November 2010. At the moment, the portal has 7 selected articles (Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, London Calling, Paul Simonon, Topper Headon, Rock the Casbah, and Should I Stay or Should I Go), some other articles are still in development and more will come in the future, 7 albums (London Calling, Combat Rock, Sandinista!, The Clash, Give 'Em Enough Rope, Super Black Market Clash, and Cut the Crap), 14 pictures (all covered by a free license; for the full list please check out this page), and 50 hooks for the DYK section (full list here).

Steve,
Madame went through your forest & left a hidden note at the Office of the Grand Veneur, which was not "long-abolished" when Napoléon III came to power. Created in the Ancien Régime, it was abolished at the time of the Revolution & was re-established by Napoléon I, kept during the Bourbon Restoration, and may not have existed during the July Monarchy - Louis-Philippe was not a hunter, and during his reign, the domain of Rambouillet with its great forest, a great hunting ground, was not in his liste civile. If you check the fr:wiki, you will notice no mention of the July Monarchy[1] - but then, that's only eighteen years, which I do not consider "long" as far as the office being "abolished", if it was.
Also, I think the title of the article should be『Forest of Compiègne』instead of『Compiègne F/forest』to keep in style with the other two important former royal then imperial forests near Paris, which in en:wiki have title of "Forest of Fontainebleau" & "Forest of Rambouillet".
Hope this helps. Cordialement,
P.S. I will look at the "marche" some other time & leave notes here & there also - we can't have your "march" stall, but there is so much else to do, specially outside of wikiland.

Not sure if these comments should be here or elsewhere (or have a title like this one) - just wanted to say that your work on the French history articles is impressive! Soboul's historical dictionary of the French Revolution really is superb. -Darouet (talk) 05:52, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
not sure how to do this, but steve, one of the laurel images is a cherry laurel and anohter is the california bay laurel.... just look at the veination for the californial laurel, it is not a member of Lauraceae, and the cherry laurel leaf has minute rosid dentition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Koibeatu (talk • contribs) 19:59, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments on my minor contribution to The Women's March on Versailles. I actually felt a bit guilty about editing this very well written and balanced article - however I felt that the role of the defending forces (however ineffectual) deserved a brief elaboration.
Yes I will be glad to have a look at the Battle of Valmy article. However like the Flanders Regiment I may just mill about in confusion and then vanish! :) Regards Buistr (talk) 02:59, 13 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I can't understand why you censor freemasonic assessments. Are you a freemason hater? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.228.39.56 (talk) 13:49, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it may be funny but I noticed right now that in September 4th 2011 you reverted my edit about his illuminati membership considering nonsense. Well, I must inform you that he is at the german wikipedia's version of the category for quite a lot of time and surely if my german were better I could find a source.
P.C.

You're welcome. I had actually decided to expand the article after creating the one about the nearby Edward Harden Mansion (now the school district's offices) for WP:NRHP, since the park is also listed and right next to it and there was already a picture and stub on it. I should probably get down there sometime and take more pictures (I didn't take the one used). Daniel Case (talk) 19:21, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
