Architecture notability

To counter spurious time consuming AfD's, I've had a stab at a draft policy for architectural notability here. I've attempted to restrict the scope of the proposal to actual 'works of architecture', architects, building technology and legal aspects of the profession. Buildings and structures notability enmasse should probably be a separate enterprise, or at least a later one. I need to give some thought to threshold notability and have shied away from minor works by major architects, because buildings are not like music or literature, they cannot generally be ignored by the public and play some kind of role in most built environments, so I argue the impact is beyond just they're effectiveness or otherwise as a work of art. Comments (by anyone) gladly received. Cheers --Mcginnly | Natter 21:35, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Disruption

Giano, I am 57 and this is just obnoxious. Your persistent incivility has passed the point of being disruptive. Please stop now. Tom Harrison 22:49, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Slim nice request there they have plotted this on IRC I have all the logs. It was one hell of a mistake on their part. Now it is payback time. Giano 23:10, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Oh yeah almost forgot some food for thought - Kelly Martin is now editing again - as a sock - anyone besides me know who? Just a little taste of things to come Giano 23:25, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

You are highly valued

You are a highly valued and respected editor, and I love you for it. But really, I hope that at least for the next 72 hours, you will agree to be calm and non-attacking while we ALL sort out the difficulties that have emerged. Good people are fighting, and that's unfortunate and sad. I unblocked you, even though I did agree that the block was fully warranted.

In April I will be visiting Taddy Belcher in South Africa. He is the head of Cida City Campus. What is this? It is a free (free as in beer) university which serves the poorest of the poor in South Africa. People who live in shanty towns can come there and get a free education. Thousands of graduates are making a better life for themselves through Taddy's work. Can we support him? Can we, in our own small way, make a beter world? Yes. And so my point is, those who are angry with you, AND YOU, can try really hard to put aside your differences and recognize that our work really can matter to the world. Let's try to do it in an atmosphere of peace and love... all of us together. --Jimbo Wales 00:30, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Request

Dear Giano,

I noticed that you have a lot of experience with getting articles to FA status. I have been working on the Ohio Wesleyan University page article and am trying to get it to FA status. I was wondering if you could provide some advice on how the article can be improved? Also, any contributions to it will be even more appreciated! Thank you so much for your time! I greatly appreciate it! WikiprojectOWU 01:55, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
