Speedy deletion nomination of Clifford Hart

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Clifford Hart requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from URL. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.



I don't usually go for speedy deletion with established users, but Hart's page is mostly cut/pasted from the first source on the page. AbuRuud (talk) 13:21, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

wikEd translation

Hi Quest for Truth,

I have updated your wikEd translation to the current version (0.9.119c). It would be great if you could find the time to translate the new additions into English. Please let me know here if you have any questions or suggestions.

Thanks in advance, Cacycle (talk) 14:03, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Your addition of the Marmaray route to some quarters of Istanbul

Hallo Quest for Truth I removed your addition of the Marmaray route from some quarters of istanbul. The reason is that this info is now plainly misleading. As a matter of fact, instead of the old railway, now in Yesilköy we have a hole (and last week it took two hours to reach Sirkeci by bus from there). Please add the route when the railway will really exist (not before 2015) or - alternatively - use another diagram which shows that this part of the railway is under construction (which - as of today - is not the case: they just demolished the old one six months ago, leaving all of us with the comfortable Istanbul buses :-(). Thanks, Alex2006 (talk) 16:20, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:33, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Yasi

So you know for future reference, Yasis windspeeds were reduced during post analysis to 110 kts/56.6 m/s/205 km/h.Jason Rees (talk) 18:35, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

This is my main source for the reduction, however i thought it was already noted in the article that the windspeeds were lowered.Jason Rees (talk) 19:57, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
