Hi Ww, There has been a lot of IP vandalism here and I wonder if you would consider semi-protection please... Johnfos (talk) 17:51, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Nijuuhibaku

Abouth the death of Tsutomu Yamaguchi the last survivor of the double bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki who died on January 5, 2010.

Hi. Is "Nijuuhibaku" a word, or the name of a film? —WWoods (talk) 23:45, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Hello, as far as I properly understood the context of the page, I first though it is a word, but I did not perform a detailed investigation on the topic. My first aim with the wikification of this not yet described term was to attract a next contributor for creating and developing the related page. If you have inspiration and time, please, feel free to search for the information and to contribute. In advance, Thank you very much. Best regards, Shinkolobwe (talk) 23:59, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
It seems it is also a word that was used as title for a movie. See the two following references (already formatted):

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Wwoods! 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. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure 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 14 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 21:52, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

What is the motivation to archive the MHP talk page after 20 days?

Are there guidelines that you are following? I think the bot started at 30 days. Why a bot, anyways? It does a bad job of archiving, as the sections end up out of chronological order. Older sections could end up in newer archives. Making a top to bottom reading of the archive page, by a human being, useless. Glkanter (talk) 18:16, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

The notice "This page is kilobytes long. It may be helpful to move older discussion into an archive subpage." shows up when the page is more than 72k; Monty Hall is still over 310k! The bot is doing a better job than relying on manual archiving; when it was put in, the page was over 660k.
I don't see the need to order archived sections by first post rather than last, but it doesn't seem to be a serious problem. Checking the posts of the last few days — — virtually all comments are posted to the most-recent dozen sections.
