[edit] Category renaming
Hi. Please do not empty categories such as Category:Urban Culture which are undergoing a Categories for deletion discussion. Doing so disrupts Wikipedia as the discussion then becomes fragmented, making it harder for us to function as a community. Thanks --Pak21 17:41, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
- Please do break cfd tags as you did in this edit. Doing so is vandalism and could get you blocked if you continue. --Pak21 17:57, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No personal attacks
Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. --Pak21 18:04, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Manual of Style
There is a Manual of Style that editors use when formatting text, links, and media in an article. Could you please ensure that your contributions are consistent with this. For example, this edit, in which you demoted several headers, is inappropriate. Mindmatrix 15:06, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Intrusion on your user page
By the way, sorry to delete the category from your user page. As I mentioned in the edit summary, you should create a separate category for the user namespace; categories in the article namespace should only contain articles (and infrequently templates). This is done not just for neatness, but also to ensure that mirrors and forks aren't polluted with Wikipedia user pages. Mindmatrix 15:19, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Bread Store
Hi,
I noticed you removed the {{importance}} tag I placed on this article. The reason I placed it there is I wanted the article to state what made this store notable. I don't think you answered it. Please try to add this information or this article may be placed for a vote for deletion. Thanks. --YUL89YYZ 21:27, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
