Hi, Nwlaw63, and thanks for your thoughtful and helpful comment on the Lanamark Education talk page. Unfortunately, you comment has been used by another editor - Pedant17, who has been persistently trying to stuff the article with anti-Landmark propaganda for several years - to support a view which appears to me to be the opposite of what you suggest. DaveApter (talk) 15:41, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. I know you meant well, but you should achieve a consensus for such a large deletion before making that deletion. SMP0328. (talk) 02:10, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I fully explained my edit on the discussion page. And I will continue to edit in the best interest of the article. Nwlaw63 (talk) 21:32, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your couple of minor edits to improve the Landmark Education page. I do think however that the article needs a much more extensive overhaul - it consists mostly of excessive coverage of marginal critical comments and very little useful information about the subject itself. DaveApter (talk) 12:07, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Nwlaw63,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

• Each casebook will have a subpage.

• Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
• It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
• Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

• I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

• Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
• Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Just thought you might like to know that removal of a banner from an article, particularly after reasoning for including the banner was given, probably constitutes acting along the lines prohibited by WP:OWN and other policies and guidelines. It is not your place, or that of any other editor, to try to dictate to others what they will or will not deal with, and is in fact a violation of wikipedia conduct guidelines. Please do not engage in such conduct again. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 18:34, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comment. I see nothing WP:OWN policy forbidding the removal of inappropriate banners. See my latest comment on the talk page for why the inclusion of this religious material seems very strange to me.Nwlaw63 (talk) 19:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Nwlaw63, It looks like you have some expertise in law and public policy. I saw some of your contributions on an article that falls within the scope of Wikiproject: United States Public Policy, and I was hoping you would be interested in assessing articles with the Public Policy Initiative. There is more info about assessment on the 9/13/2010 Signpost. Even though assessment is typically for long term Wikipedians the Initiative is also about fostering a friendly environment for new users. If you're interested or just curious you can sign up on the project page or just contact me. Thanks! ARoth (Public Policy Initiative) (talk) 00:34, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this message.

As you may know, the United Kingdom Supreme Court has been hearing cases for about 18 months now, taking over from the House of Lords as the Court of Last Resort for most appeals within the United Kingdom.

During that time, the court has handed down 87 judgements (82 of which were on substantive appeals). Wikipedia covers around 11 of these and rarely in any detail. Some very important cases (including Radmacher v Granatino [2010] UKSC 42 (prenups) and Norris v USA [2010] UKSC 9 (extradition)) are not covered at all.

I'm proposing a drive to complete decent quality articles for all, or at least a good proportion of these cases as soon as possible. If we can eliminate the backlog then a small group of editors might want to stick around to ensure articles are created relatively speedily for new cases. Since the Court process, on average, one case a week this shouldn't be too great a task.

I'd like to ask you to help with this drive, and help make Wikipedia a credible source for UKSC case notes.

How you can help

• Help me improve this Template:Infobox SCOTUK case based off the US Supreme Court equivalent.

• Complete that template and add it to existing cases.

• Improve formatting & prose. Copyediting.

• Improve the coverage of cases we have articles on, including adding content, sourcing and fact-checking

• Create new articles for UKSC cases

• Improve the categorisation and listing of UKSC cases.

• Improve the judgment listings articles: 2009 Judgments of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom 2010 Judgments of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom 2011 Judgments of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom

Hello! As someone who has edited the Landmark Worldwide article in the past few weeks, I am notifying you of a discussion at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard regarding the use of the website caic.org.au as a reliable source in that article.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. --Tgeairn (talk) 21:44, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Nwlaw63. I just wanted to draw your attention to the edits I've made to Coal Hill School. I've found a number of reliable secondary sources which discuss the fictional school, in a few cases in some detail. I leave it to you whether the citations I've found constitute "significant coverage" enough to change your view on the AfD. I will probably continue to work on improving the article's sourcing over the next few days. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 05:23, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nwlaw63-

It looks like this edit inadvertently removed your previous edit(s). You may want to restore your comments. I have dropped a note for the other editor, they can always resolve it too. --Tgeairn (talk) 23:24, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The conversation from the lp (Unix) deletion discussion had several of the same participants, and there was some discussion there as to how both articles should really be about the print system rather than the command. As you weren't involved in that discussion, there's no way you should have known that I was focused on finding WP:RS for the system instead of the command. Nor did I do a quick edit on the article itself to indicate the refocusing. You are absolutely right: the citations I listed do not establish the notability for the command.

I've done a quick pass on the article. If you have time and inclination, take a look and see if you think there's sufficient notability to support a merge+redirect to Line Printer Daemon protocol.

Again, sorry for the confusion. It was entirely my fault.

This is a courtesy message to inform you that an arbitration clarification request in which you were listed as a party has been closed and archived with a motion being enacted which authorises standard discretionary sanctions for the topic of Landmark Worldwide, broadly construed. For the Arbitration Committee, Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 10:13, 23 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Landmark Worldwide, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

This message is informational only and does not imply misconduct regarding your contributions to date.

Apologies for this bureaucratic silliness, but according to the labyrinthine WP:AC/DS system you aren't "alerted". Which doesn't make sense because you were part of the arbitration case, but bureaucracies seldom make sense. Manul ~ talk 01:47, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Landmark Worldwide". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 13 February 2015.

The request for formal mediation concerning Landmark Worldwide, to which you were listed as a party, has been declined. To read an explanation by the Mediation Committee for the rejection of this request, see the mediation request page, which will be deleted by an administrator after a reasonable time. Please direct questions relating to this request to the Chairman of the Committee, or to the mailing list. For more information on forms of dispute resolution, other than formal mediation, that are available, see Wikipedia:Dispute resolution.

Thanks for cleaning up Uwe Rosenberg's page and updating it with so much useful info. While making a few edits of my own, I noticed by accident that some of your work (the bit about him founding Lookout games in this edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uwe_Rosenberg&diff=716815443&oldid=716814144) was hidden on the page the a result of a misplaced closing bracket in a ref tag.

@Nwlaw63: I do what I can. But the state most of those articles are in.. A deletionist's nightmare. :) I think the project's page needs a styleguide section for "Gameplay" sections. Most of them are 10,000-word manuals — and if you look at the project's talk page, people keep adding new ones along these lines, thinking that's the idea. Do you know if bold editing also applies to project pages? I've joined about a year ago, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to go ahead and come up with guidelines just like that.

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Blood Rage (board game). I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

A tag has been placed on Near and Far requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. 216.235.231.28 (talk) 14:54, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

There's about 5 others I see in a Google News search - about the same as Azul at this point.

Thanks for creating Karuba (board game).

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The article could use a section about the game's critical reception

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Snakes and Lattes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wired (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

I think you should perhaps consider changing the section on Dark Tower (game) back to simply saying "Restoration". Return to Dark Tower is indeed a restoration and while there are changes to it, it's still classified as a restoration - similar to Restoration Games' other projects that include Stop Thief and Fireball Island. DÅRTHBØTTØ _(T•C) 20:16, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose what I'm suggesting is just going by the categorization of a restoration, rather than the publisher name. DÅRTHBØTTØ _(T•C) 20:25, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think just 'Restoration' is confusing - since the game is being remade by Restoration Games, it's unclear whether or not the section title refers to the company name. Some other synonym for restoration would be fine, I think. Nwlaw63 (talk) 21:13, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

When I first read about the game, I heard the term "sequel" thrown around just as much as "remake" and "restoration". Do board games have sequels? DÅRTHBØTTØ _(T•C) 21:33, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there are. I think sequel works just fine. Nwlaw63 (talk) 03:30, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Calico (board game), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ... discospinster _talk 21:27, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Nwlaw63. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Polygnotus (talk) 20:44, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
