You are not correct in that Encino is indeed within the city of LA. The LA city limits extend to West Hills. WhisperToMe ( talk) 01:29, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
Please create user:Toounstable with something. Users with red-linked pages are viewed with almost as much suspicion as anons. Looking at Malibu Rehab Model I almost took you for one of Reagan0005's sock puppets.
And talking of Malibu Rehab Model, if you don't take it to AfD, I will. Anyone who can create a link to TheRapistFinder.com and make the name visible must have a distorted sense of reality! — RHaworth ( Talk | contribs) 17:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
I know you mean well, but except for your addition of a category (which I restored) I reverted your edits to Haight Ashbury Free Clinics. For some resason, you reversed the reference process, moving it from the notes to external links and adding a citation tag. I understand that you are new to Wikipedia, but this is generally not how things are done. The opposite, moving external links to inline references, is preferred. The expansion tag is unneeded as the article is already tagged as a stub. Viriditas ( talk) 23:39, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to explain why I removed your edit to Gelatin dessert regarding "gelatin shots," the info in the cited article didn't quite match what you wrote. I don't have time to rewrite it at the moment, so I just removed it. I hope you don't mind fixing it. At any rate, I think what you are trying to get at is that the California legislature believes that prepackaged "jello-shots" are particularly attractive to underage drinkers. But that's not quite the same as being an "alcopop"-- in fact the draft bill referenced has separate descriptions for "alcopops" and "new alcohol products with potential appeal to young people." Here's the bill text: [1] It is an interesting issue, you should take a look at the original 1862 recipe for "jelly punch," the writer explains that ladies are often tempted to partake more of it than might be prudent if they want to continue dancing that evening.

A tag has been placed on List of America's 100 greatest golf courses requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please do not assume
ownership of articles such as
List of America's 100 greatest golf courses. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you. I wouldn't normally give someone who's been around for more than a few months this warning, but you're ignoring everything on the talk page, refusing to discuss why the article passes basic policies (
WP:N) and why it doesn't violate others
WP:IINFO), and reverting any edit not in your favor. Please discuss, not own.

arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
