Hello, I hope all is going well. I just wanted to send a friendly message out letting all the new article boosters know that the number of articles awaiting a boosters' review is the highest it has ever been. If you happen to have time to boost a few articles, it would be greatly appreciated. Since we strive to have all of our articles accurate and properly formatted, we are hoping to get caught back up on our NAB backlog as soon as possible. Thanks in advanced for any help!

Sorry about that. I just had remembered someone saying on the forums that being welcomed twice may overwhelm newbies, but I guess that the verdict of that topic said it was OK to welcome twice.

You have placed a merge template on my wikiHow article, and I was unaware that there was another article almost completely the same, and thanks for pointing it out, but I poured time and effort into the article, and was going to ask "How do I efficiently merge articles?"

I apologize. To be honest, I didn't even see the comma. I thought you were talking about the letters so I kinda got confused. My mistake! I read the username policy but it's just one comma....so I don't know. I'll check with an admin as soon as I can.

Thanks for your help making wikiHow a great place!
I noticed that you recently nominated an article for deletion. As you may already know, the NFD tag uses three character codes to aid the the evaluation and review of the nominations. One of your recent nominations did not use a code. I've gone ahead and fixed the code. For more information on these codes and how they work, please see How to Nominate an Article for Deletion in wikiHow.

Hey! I was just wondering....what is Deal With Cheating Spouse a duplicate of?
At 17:45, Oct 13, 2009
Krystle said:
Same question for Get a Free Ninja Suit on Club Penguin.
I just saw your note on your talk page - I can't stand Vista! I have it on my laptop and considered downgrading to XP. But I think I might be able to get Windows 7...
At 19:32, Oct 13, 2009
Mountain Dew said:
Yeah, I was a bit unsure about it too.
I did copy some of the instructions, but I did rephrase them.
I'm not an expert on copyrights and stuff like that, so if it is a copyvio, I apologize.
At 22:20, Oct 13, 2009
Michael S said:
Well, if you need to merge them, then I'll agree to that. So my vote is on merge.
At 01:04, Oct 14, 2009
Krystle said:
Hmmm. I think dealing with a cheating partner is slightly different than a cheating spouse, because if it's your spouse, that means you're married, so there's all that jazz to consider.
I wonder if being a ninja on CP the same as getting a ninja suit? And I wonder if you normally have to "pay" for a ninja suit, and the title is about how to get one for free? I have no idea what the game is about...Oy.
I've never had so many problems with a computer in my life until I tried Vista. I loved XP! If I had the spare change, though, I'd probably make the jump to a Mac...

Hello,
Yes I have been patrolling recent changes, and when I come across joke, adverts and so on I nominate them for deletion based on Wiki-hows deletion policy. When I encounter pages that are very racial, hateful, hurtful and sexually explicit in nature I use the the speedy delete template. I really enjoy this site and am dedicated to helping make Wiki-how the best free on-line how-to on the net. Soon I will contribute my own articles, but until then I am enjoying copy-editing, formatting, spell-checking and so on, all (hopefully) consistent with the guidelines of the writers guide. I thank you for your advice, and willingly accept any other advice you may give.
Mark aka Sanssheriff

Krystle said:
Hey! I wouldn't be averse to deleting Deal With Cheating Spouse. The thing is, there's a specific reason merging is based on titles, and not content. If they get merged, the title "deal with a cheating spouse" gets redirected to the other one, and if someone ever wants to write about dealing with a cheating spouse specifically, they won't be able to use that title because it'll be tied up in a redirect. It's hard to imagine that someone will ever write something so effectively specific, but if this website continues growing the way it does, it could definitely happen! :P
Same for the ninja suit articles...if they have the same instructions, there's nothing wrong with that, as long as they address the title accurately, to one degree or another. Duplicate content is OK, duplicate titles are not. Like Be Popular and Be a Popular Girl are going to have a lot of overlap, but they're still unique titles. Now if the content doesn't address the title accurately...then deletion would work, but I wouldn't redirect. It's important to leave distinct titles "open" so to speak.
So then what would you recommend? :)

hmm, I think that the only one I marked for deletion today was a speedy. Should I be entering that as an action when marking for speedy?
At 23:49, Oct 17, 2009
Mountain Dew said:
Oh.
If I remove the pictures, will it still be a copyvio?
(I used those pictures because I cannot draw at all.)
At 07:12, Oct 21, 2009
Mark Davis said:
Sure. I meant to ask, should I state in the summary of the edit "speedy delete request", to let an admin know that a speedy was requested?
Thank you, that's better than a deletion. Yes I am aware of the speedy template. And thank you, now I know how to add a 'quote' to a reply as well. :)

Hi ChoiceFresh: Yes they are. A couple of points. 1) The red saw in the pictures is illegal to use in most jurisdictions - no chain break. The "Husky" (orange saw) is a good one - there are many other good brands. 2) While the information from this site is largely accurate, it largely incomplete. If you want to save yourself from injury or death take a course from a certified instructor. It's a day long, usually less than $100 - sometimes free. Phone your local utility office and ask them for a contact. Your local hospital will thank you.
Cheers,
A certified chainsaw instructor
