| == Rapid Transit == | |||
| Glad to hear you're also interested in working on the rapid transit article. I'd say we should figure out what actually counts as "notable" (off the top of my head, the world's first subway system, first to run electric vehicles, most riders per day, stuff like that) and put everything in chronological order. That might actually entail a full rewrite. The most important thing, I'd say, is sources. I don't have much experience with the citation format on Misplaced Pages, but I plan on looking up the proper way to do it and trying to find some good sources to use while editing the history section. Not sure exactly when I'll be able to get this done (maybe this weekend) but yeah, that's my plan of attack. ] 19:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC) | |||

| Hi, | |||
| ==MfD nomination of ]== | |||
| I've recently been expanding ] quite a bit and have started a subcategory called . I've really written up a bit of a skeleton for this area of planning. The planning acts, the new planning structure, PPS's, all those bloody new abbreviations LDF,LDD,RSS etc.etc. So far the majority of it are stubs and I was wondering if you might be interested in lending a hand in some way. Most of the articles so far are pretty dry statements of fact(I think) and could do with some context, structure/re-structure, debate, proof reading etc.etc. I'm a complete novice at Misplaced Pages and sure there's a heap of no-no's I've committed (Posting direct to talk pages?!?). | |||

| ==Image copyright problem with ]== | |||
| Thanks for uploading ]. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The ] is very careful about the images included in ] because of ] (see Misplaced Pages's ]). | |||
| The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Misplaced Pages are ], ], and ]. Find the appropriate template in ] and place it on the image page like this: <code>{{TemplateName}}</code>. | |||
| Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

| == Pictures in the main Milton Keynes article == | |||
| It is really good to have a town planning expert coming in to look at and improve the ] article, but I'm afraid I have a problem with the pics you addded - more precisely, where you put them. These are good pics, but they are really in the wrong place, because they don't help to clarify the text in the adjacent paragraph. The fountain in (not near) the centre doesn't really say anything about the urban design process; Midsummer Boulevard is not a grid road. They are fine for the ] article, so I'll move them there. If you disagree, drop me a note at ] to say why. | |||
| Please don't let this discourage you from improving the text. It still contains a fair amount of opinion that could to with being based on accepted sources. Better still, if you can find or make copyright-free pictures (including drawings) that would illustrate the adjacent text, that would be great. --] 09:49, 28 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Feedback appreciated! See my response on CC's page ] | |||
| : I'll repost them in the Central Milton Keynes article, which is better. If you are taking pics again, that's great, but try for something that illustrates the what the text is saying. --] 23:13, 28 May 2006 (UTC) | |||

| We've started a wikiproject for planning at ] and were wondering if you'd like to sign up, there's plenty of work to do to get planning issues up to par on wikipedia and it seems like a good idea to establish a community of wikipedians to tackle it.

| ::::If an article is worth editing, practically anyone will edit it. If in article isn't worth being on wikipedia, surprisingly few people are willing to nominate them. Misplaced Pages does need it's butchers as well as it's surgeons.

| :::::I just read what you said in Ferion, and you're right that a couple of the articles merely need some dedicated attention to satisfy criteria.

I am willing to work with you on this, as a gesture of good faith. ] 16:42, 20 April 2007 (UTC) | |||
| == MMORPGs == | |||
| When 40 articles fall in a single night, there needs to be an accountability. DarkSaber2k has yet to explain himself for doing what I would call a wiki-crime. At the very least, he should be brought before the admins. This should not pass, lest him or some other try it again someday, with some other group of articles, believeing that there be no accountability. Gothador is getting a review, and it will probably be deleted (Rightfully so- it's crap), but I know of 40 or so other REALLY GOOD articles that did not get the chance that Gothador did, because DarkSaber2k abused the system. I want to get some arbitration on this, but I don't know how to go about it. ] 18:33, 30 April 2007 (UTC) | |||
| : I totally agree. There is more to this that simply saying they don't comply with WP:Web or WP:blah blah. Its almost like they need to be judged against their peers. I don't know how I got dragged into all this... I used to play inselkampf and wrote the entry, but its more than defending a genre that was once close to my heart, its about defending a 'minority' interest. Something that only a minority may find important. </br> As for Arbitration, this has to be our next step, its the only avenue open to us. Unfortunately WP is sooooooooo hopelessly beurocratic i'm not too sure how to do this either. The problem is most WP admins' absolutely adore deleting pages. Hows about a project page? I have created User:Matt ], we should make a good case before presenting it, when we finally figure out how :-P ] 09:46, 1 May 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :: (edit conflict) In the ] deletion debate you can see my entire justification for nominating all those articles. They had all been around for sometime. Few of them even made any claim to notability. The fact of the matter is that the browser MMO section of Misplaced Pages is poorly maintained. Most of the articles had no sources, or only provided message boards and such. Looking at the discussion pages showed that requests for sources had usually been made and frequently ignored, or inadequately answered. Some of the articles had previously been nominated for deletion and barely scraped through, and then no work had been done on the article. Those articles were not even tagged for a speedy delete, I followed normal routine and put it up for AfD, where they were subsequently deleted. My point is that all those articles had been around for a length of time and no-one was ever able to come up with adequate proof of notability, despite requests and warnings. Sooner or later a line has to be drawn under just how long an article like that that is allowed to exist in that site. Protecting minority interests is noble, but no matter how minor the interest, it still has satisfy inclusion criteria such as notability and reliable sourcing. You only assume good faith so long before you have to assume that the promised proof doesn't exist. ] 09:47, 1 May 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::: And FYI, you got dragged into this when you suggested I take a look the 80% of the browser game articles that were less notable than Inselkampf as I recall. Then you decicded to try and push for Admin action when those articles were actually deleted. ] 09:49, 1 May 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::: Ah yes, now i remember. ] 09:50, 1 May 2007 (UTC). My point is i don't even play any of these, its about WP. | |||

| :::::: Erm, i did assume good faith but a week of watching the way you 'contribute' to Misplaced Pages means I have learnt that that assumption was incorrect after all, its seems to border on a ]. Anyway I'm off to actually '''contribute''' to articles now. After all I have a funny feeling that's the point? There's an article on urban renewal that needs a good going over. Although i will admit this is more fun. ] 10:17, 1 May 2007 (UTC) | |||

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve.
