Hello, Gary. It has been over six months since you last edited the [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submission or [[WP:Drafts|Draft]] page you started, "[[Draft:Vxtreme|Vxtreme]]". |
|||
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|32px|left|Image Copyright problem]] |

Thank you for uploading [[:Image:Time 100.jpg]]. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the '''license''' and the '''source''' of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a '''[[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|copyright tag]]''' to the [[Help:Image page|image description page]]. |

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted.

An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it. |
|||
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]]. Thanks again for your cooperation.

Hi Gary. I've been following the PR, and the progress you've been making, and I'm impressed with how speedily they've been addressed. I'm surprised no one else has commented, but for such a controversial topic, I'd press for at least 3 reviews before GAN/FAC.

Hmm, the 9th was the last time that user edited. Can you confirm to the best of your knowledge that you've addressed those concerns? They were mainly about style guidelines, but s/he also mentioned "substance", which was a bit vague! If the style guidelines conform, I think you should add a comment under the oppose and explain that the objections have been addressed, while also explaining that the opposer hasn't been active in the last few days. It might help if an uninvolved editor, preferably from WP:Skyscrapers, added a comment confirming that the list conforms to style guidelines ({{User|Raime}} seems like the best bet). That'll probably be sufficient for the oppose to be disregarded as acted upon. [[User:PeterSymonds|PeterSymonds]] | [[User talk:PeterSymonds|<small>talk</small>]] 22:38, 14 March 2008 (UTC) |

|||
If you're going to remove a significant portion of an article then MAKE BETTER USE OF YOUR EDIT SUMMARY. You will also notice that [[Python syntax and semantics]] exists which makes it not a loss of information and I note that you didn't make [[PHP syntax and semantics]] and so you've removed the information that really separates one language from another: its syntax. |
|||
The way you've rationalized removing code examples is on par with saying [[Spanish language]] can't have any Spanish words or phrases in it at all. If you have to cut any and all code examples to make PHP a featured article then it shouldn't be done because it doesn't better this encyclopedia.

== Re:Call of Duty 4 == |

*Merge the "overview", "single player", and "multiplayer" sections into a single "gameplay" section. Talk about the game and its general aspects (first-person shooter, objective, etc.) and then have level three sections for the single player and the multiplayer aspects. Condense the multiplayer section drastically. No need to list modes (comment on a few as examples); basically, your job is to show how the multiplayer works and how it fits into the normal gameplay. Basically, summarize the individual sections, keep it coherent, and cut the extra section headings. |
|||
*Move the characters and story section into a "plot" section that covers both characters and the story. Try to keep the story as concise as possible - level four section headings to divide sections of the story are largely unnecessary. Just start a new paragraph. For the characters, describe them succinctly using prose. As for the in-universe referencing, you don't have to - I actually found it easier to cite using that style of referencing. You're free to use third party references or really, anything [[WP:RS|reliable]] and [[WP:V|verifiable]] for them. |

*Turn the "marketing" section into a "development" section covering the game and expand more on the development of the game. Include the "game engine" section as a third level heading of the development section. Also, cut out all the headings when you merge the "marketing" section. Move the "music and soundtrack" section above the "reception" section and change it to "audio". |
|||
*For the "reception" section, you want to cover how reception treats the different aspects of the game (gameplay - make sure you have comments on both single player, multiplayer, and the gameplay in general -, plot, graphics, game engine, audio, etc.). Listing the scores in the prose is largely redundant due to the table. I'm iffy about listing out all those awards as prose - a table/box/something else may be more appropriate, or incorporate it into the main body of the reception. |

Do the above, get a good copy-editor, and you should be good. Cheers, <font face="Verdana">[[User:Sephiroth BCR|<font color="navy">'''Sephiroth BCR'''</font>]] <sup>'''([[User talk:Sephiroth BCR|<font color="blue">Converse</font>]])'''</sup></font> 05:58, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |

Hi Gary, good to see you're editing. You nominated this one at WP:FAC a long time ago. I'm thinking of rerunning this one at WP:TFA on July 1 ... the article seems to me to be in pretty good shape. Any thoughts pro or con? - Dank (push to talk) 06:07, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, go ahead, sounds good. Gary (talk) 19:12, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. The tool User:Phlsph7/HighlightUnreferencedPassages.js pointed out that the last paragraph, about Settlers, Rails & Trails, is unreferenced. Do you happen to have a reference? Would you rather pull it if we can't find a reference? - Dank (push to talk) 19:37, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- Nope, I don't have a reference for that. You can remove it, if you want. Gary (talk) 21:09, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- Just a reminder that this is coming up on July 1. - Dank (push to talk) 21:28, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Nope, I don't have a reference for that. You can remove it, if you want. Gary (talk) 21:09, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Vxtreme
Hello, Gary. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Vxtreme".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 06:48, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
The article Mesh conference has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This conference article is missing a reliable source to establish notability. The first two references are from blog/promotional websites; the other two refrences are dead links. After searching, found social media and event announcement websites, but no comprehensive, in-depth coverage of this conference itself. Article was created on 10 March 2010.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:01, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
