May I suggest the Pembury Tavern in Hackney? Not Central London, but a great venue with free Wifi, Python driven till etc and great beer and food. Otherwise, Penderel's Oak near Holborn Tube station (no wifi).

A tag has been placed on Chiang K'ang Hu, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Hi, an anon removed some long-standing (since 18 October 2006) text from John Dillinger with this edit without leaving an edit summary. I undid his edit (I should have left an edit summary 'rv unexplained change' but I was lazy, so I am arguably as guilty as he). I think you very understandably mistook my replacement of the text for a vandalism and reverted it. I wonder if you would mind restoring the '(which Hoover later kept in a jar)' phrase, which is actually part and parcel of the rumor the article mentions.

An editor has nominated Noël Martin, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Noël Martin and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

SmackBot uses WP:AWB for almost all its edits. Rich Farmbrough, 07:05 14 January 2008 (GMT).

I think a country page should not have a separate section for "Human rights" in that country.

No, I'm not using a bot "to do this".

OK. It's not the reversion that I minded so much as the lack of explanation. I didn't know if you thought I was vandal or whether you had read the quote. If I had read your argument at the time I might not have objected.--Admitmeets (talk) 19:24, 24 January 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-01-24T19:24:00.000Z","author":"Admitmeets","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Admitmeets-2008-01-24T19:24:00.000Z-Poeloq-2008-01-24T19:18:00.000Z","replies":["c-Poeloq-2008-01-24T19:30:00.000Z-Admitmeets-2008-01-24T19:24:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks a lot for intervening. I was in serious danger of violating 3RR over this one, and since two users were adding that same content, I felt like there was little I could do to combat the vandalism without ending up with my name on the 3RR noticeboard... To the same end, could you please have a look at Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Chimpywiki and comment on those two users' strange activity?

No problem! 3RR can be troublesome sometime, but it has good intentions. If you ever need me to look at something again, just contact me either here or on IRC. Enjoy the weekend and happy editing!

So are different generations of Malibus or Impalas, to give one example (or Skylarks or LeSabres for that matter) - but there are many more of them. The generally apllied practice is not to split such articles unless content is overflowing. In this case, we have pretty little content, so splitting the article makes little sense.

I'll look into it. I just have a disliking of long pages with many infoboxes.

Well, I proposed ways to cut the infoboxes' length @ the WikiProject, but have too little time now to pursue that seriously. Please raise the issue there if you have the time, I will surely support you. As concerns long articles, I hate shortish article created for the tiniest bits of info. For sure, if the article gets like 40k text alone, it's time to split into sub-articles, but until then, article proliferation is evil.

It doesn't exclude anybody, just people who can't/don't want to travel later in the evening. This is the monthly London Meetup - not the UK one. Maybe there should be a yearly UK Meetup? If there is demand for something along those lines, possibly with other Wikimedia projects, I would be willing to organize a UK Meetup at a venue in London for June time.

Monthly London meetings - an excellent idea! Sorry I will have to miss the February meet.
