Thanks for the barnstar! Yesterday I created my 4,000th article. Lugnuts ( talk) 14:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
I personally am not comfortable deleting it, because there is a direct claim to notability (which technically circumvents {{ A7}}), and since the subject is from a foreign language source, it's likely going to be more difficult to source this for the English Wikipedia. I'd give it a bit more time than a standard English-language entry. If they make no more edits to it, then prod it. IF that doesn't work, do some due diligence searching, and see if you can't find anything about the subject yourself, and then if nothing, take it to AfD.

Hey Ceranthor, this is IMatthew ( talk · contribs), co-coordinator of the WikiCup; just informing you of the Featured List contest, starting this coming Friday.

I was just checking out your bragsheet. You have Oort Cloud listed as a featured article you contributed to significantly ("pretty substantial"). What work did you sinificantly contribute to it (i.e writing content)? I could only find examples of wikilinking and captioning etc. Just wanted to see an example of your own work. Seraphim♥ Whipp 13:48, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Likewise with King Arthur. I note you made seven edits to that page. There are over fifty others who made more edits than you. I made 139 (the second highest number), and even so don't put it on any braglist (mostly because I didn't do any actual research for the article). Your list is misleading at best. -- jbmurray ( talk • contribs) 20:38, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Or to put it more positively, to include King Arthur, Neptune, or William Shakespeare (where your contributions were even more marginal) really devalues your contributions when you are a major contributor, as at Mount Baker. I checked out your contributions to a few articles and thought you were completely making them all up, until I looked at what you'd done to Mount Baker, where you do seem to be the prime mover, at least in terms of edit count. In short, such a padded braglist (like a padded CV) hurts more than it helps. -- jbmurray ( talk • contribs) 20:51, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Ceranthor. As you are a member of the FA-Team, I would like to ask you assistance. The Oil shale extraction was a FAC, but was not promoted, mostly because of the prose. I wonder if you could be interested to help bringing this article to the FA level. Thank you in advance. Beagel ( talk) 20:36, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
Ceran, I encourage you and other specialists get your hands dirty and help turn the Ring-tailed Lemur article into one of the best on Wiki.

The speedy deletion criterion A5 is only for articles that have already been transwikied. Now I doubt that Hub hub will last much longer on Wiktionary than as a prodded article on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, there is no speedy deletion criterion that applies to neologisms (except in the case of pure vandalism), so I started a deletion discussion. -- Blanchardb - Me• MyEars• MyMouth- timed 20:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
I believe my signature and its related coding does not fall under the forbidden category you linked to me. I believe that my signature code is not over 255 character after the substitution, but also that the code would not work if I were to use it raw. Thus I shall not be altering my signature. Garden. 23:27, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Please see the WP:FAR instructions and refrain from overburdening FAR with more than one nom at a time; in particular, multiple nominations in the same topic area overburden the small group of editors who may be able to improve those articles. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 14:39, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the suggestion Ceranthor. I know about DYKs but don't feel particularly enthusiastic about them. I find that it takes most of my energy just getting a new article to a stage where it's worth putting it out there, so I'm not planning to try for DYK on any of my created articles.

The speedy deletion criterion A5 is only for articles that have already been transwikied. Now I doubt that Hub hub will last much longer on Wiktionary than as a prodded article on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, there is no speedy deletion criterion that applies to neologisms (except in the case of pure vandalism), so I started a deletion discussion. -- Blanchardb - Me• MyEars• MyMouth- timed 20:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
I believe my signature and its related coding does not fall under the forbidden category you linked to me. I believe that my signature code is not over 255 character after the substitution, but also that the code would not work if I were to use it raw. Thus I shall not be altering my signature.

Please see the WP:FAR instructions and refrain from overburdening FAR with more than one nom at a time; in particular, multiple nominations in the same topic area overburden the small group of editors who may be able to improve those articles. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 14:39, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the suggestion Ceranthor. I know about DYKs but don't feel particularly enthusiastic about them. I find that it takes most of my energy just getting a new article to a stage where it's worth putting it out there, so I'm not planning to try for DYK on any of my created articles. Just too lazy I guess. Mikenorton ( talk) 23:38, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
