Dikran Tahta

Just wanted to give you a heads up. I moved "dick tahta" to Dikran Tahta and then created a redirect from Dick Tahta to Dikran Tahta. The way you created the title was an incorrect format. Quotations are completely unneeded. Typically, an article is under the person's given name, thus the name change. Either search will yield the mathmatician, though. Article still needs some clean-up. I'll see what I can do. Turlo Lomon 09:15, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much, first article so learning curve. I wanted to fit links and crosslink in later to other Wiki areas, e.g. Hawkings, Armenia, Armenian Genocide.

Triquetra

What was "known to numismatists as a triquetra" in 1865 is actually called a Triskelion today, and most of the content you added to article Triquetra was not relevant to article Triquetra. AnonMoos 11:50, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Photos

Nobody would believe I was so keen on tidying up if they looked at my desk! Don't forget that you might find photos for your articles in Commons:Category:Jersey. Man vyi 16:15, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Toning down

I agree. Best to stick to encyclopaedic facts - if people want polemic, there's plenty out there! Man vyi 14:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Regarding edits made to Christian Wicca

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Tony theprof! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \bmembers\.aol\.com\/.+, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 21:52, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Lelitia Landon

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Lelitia Landon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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. Addhoc 20:04, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

There is a fuller article that I have found since, so mine ought to be deleted please. --TonyinJersey 15:29, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Darius J Pearce

In view of the excellent job you did in sorting out the overtly and covertly partisan editing war on the Jersey Democratic Alliance page, I think you would be the perfect neutral to sort the grain - if any - from the chaff on this page, and make sure that if it is not deleted for non-notability, at least the facts are verified. Please could you have a look?

Daverotherham 15:18, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

A number of changes seem to have been made; I have made a few adjusments documented in the discussion area.

Thanks a lot for your attention

Christian Wicca

FYI: Christian Wicca was recently nominated for deletion due to lack of references. I notice that there once were references (many added by you) but it looks like an overzealous revert in March of this year blew many of them away. I thought you should know so that you could put back whatever needs putting back. Hope this helps. Crypticfirefly 05:42, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Tony theprof! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person.

In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 901 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Using the JEP as a 'reliable source' with regard to Walker

I have started a discussion on the talk page of Frank Walker on this subject, as a regular contributor, I wondered if you had any thoughts. RichardColgate (talk) 22:45, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of William George Tabb

Hello Tony theprof,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged William George Tabb for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. TheLongTone (talk) 14:39, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, The Horse and His Boy, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
