You put an Unreferenced tag on Secret Agent on May 30th. However, I'm not quite sure what you expect to be done about that. Secret Agent is an old game, and if it's referenced anywhere, it probably is just a mention of it and who published it.

Thanks for the barnstar. I'm still a bit uncertain about the article--it's hard to judge the Asian press, as things can be published in a magazine there and disappear before the ink is dry. However, I think that in the case of AfD, editors should be required to attempt to clean up the article before nominating it--this would greatly improve Wikipedia, and reduce the workload in AfD. The article does look fine as it now stands, and certainly the kid did nothing to deserve such a crappy article. Good job awarding lots of barnstars to various editors--people need to know that their work is not just appreciated, but noticed by other editors.
I posted one of the sillier nominations to the list serve as an example of what irritates me about AfD, and one of the members pointed out that the nominator had removed content from the article before nominating it for deletion based upon the article missing the content he had just removed! [3] [4] Notice, how the editor deleted the trivia under his IP, then nominated for deletion under his user name? Might not have been caught if the editor had not posted the AfD banner at the same time he deleted the content. I gave him a vandal warning on his talk page to alert other editors of the issue.
If you get a chance to even add one well-written paragraph from a single source to this article ( Steven Krilis), please do--it was some of the worse crap I've ever seen on Wikipedia. You may be busy with end of the semester work, and the article can wait. However, I think it could be enhanced by a bit of work from you. I did, as usual, remove most of the worst of it.
There is also a musician article that I found that was pure crap, that needs some research done--I removed most of the worst of it. I really don't have much knowledge even about the musicians I listen to (my son provides me with rap music that he thinks I will like, which I do listen to, but don't pay attention to the artists), but think that this is an area in which Wikipedia can serve better. If you can look at this article and do anything about it when you find the time, please do Ithaka (musician).

[3] [4] Notice, how the editor deleted the trivia under his IP, then nominated for deletion under his user name? Might not have been caught if the editor had not posted the AfD banner at the same time he deleted the content. I gave him a vandal warning on his talk page to alert other editors of the issue.
If you get a chance to even add one well-written paragraph from a single source to this article ( Steven Krilis), please do--it was some of the worse crap I've ever seen on Wikipedia. You may be busy with end of the semester work, and the article can wait. However, I think it could be enhanced by a bit of work from you. I did, as usual, remove most of the worst of it.
There is also a musician article that I found that was pure crap, that needs some research done--I removed most of the worst of it. I really don't have much knowledge even about the musicians I listen to (my son provides me with rap music that he thinks I will like, which I do listen to, but don't pay attention to the artists), but think that this is an area in which Wikipedia can serve better. If you can look at this article and do anything about it when you find the time, please do Ithaka (musician).
