I just made this page because there was not a page for him. I dont know much about his personal life but everything in the page is pretty obvious from watching him in his band versailles (which you could easily do by searching the band on youtube). I provided my references as proof for what i posted. Its definintly up for editing. Im sure there is someone else out there that knows more than me. I just wanted there to be a page for him.

You'll probably need a lot more reliable third party referencing and sourcing to prove that they are notable enough for their own article, rather than just a section in the band's. If you can't you may want add some of the information to the band's article instead. Good job though! ~ QwerpQwertus ·_Contact Me_·Get Adopted! 01:11, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please ask me any Questions regarding my article on Flovel. This article has been created by Vikithakar

Your article has been deleted because it gave no indication that the company is notable enough to have an article. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a business listing directory; article subjects have to be of enough general interest and importance. The Wikipedia term for that is notability, which is not a matter of opinion but needs to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." More advice on your talk page. JohnCD (talk) 08:43, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yesterday I created an article about integer circuit and since, in computer science/computational complexity, wikipedia seems to know only about binary circuit, I thought it could be usefull to create a circuit page. (Binary and integer circuit are two special case of circuits) So I wonder if it should be moved as an article or not, and what would be the exact name ? Circuit (complexity) ? Circuit (computer science) ? because [Circuit] is already used. My second problem is that, circuit is a well known object, used in a at least 2 differents fields in computer science, but there is no article about circuit, every reference I have got define what is a (boolean/integer/real...) circuit, and even if they speaks of the same underlying object, they don't spend time of the circuit itself, and speak of his property as a boolean/integer/... circuit. So, is it ok if I give as references articles whose main subject are of integers/boolean circuit ? Arthur MILCHIOR (talk) 14:34, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there!
Re. the name, "Circuit (computer science)" sounds fine to me. Don't worry too much about it; Wikipedia:Article titles has much to say on the subject, but frankly it does not matter. We can always change the title later.
You can't use Wikipedia articles as references, sorry; odd as it may sound, Wikipedia is not a reliable souce!
You must use secondary sources, such as books or newspapers; reputable websites are OK too. You might find references used in the other Wikipedia article(s), and be able to use them.
Articles require more than one source - so please, if possible, add a couple more. Preferably, using inline citations - I'll add help about that on your own talk page.
Apart from that - please, get it live, ASAP - and then develop it further. Many thanks,  Chzz  ►  19:28, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am new to wilkipedia. Thanks for any opinion on that article.

You should probably add more references\sources which will prove the accuracy and importance of the article to an encyclopedia, and a picture and infobox are also always helpful. Good job though! ~ QwerpQwertus ·_Contact Me_·Get Adopted! 02:22, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am practicing writing articles, so I put this together as a test. Please let me know what changes I should make.

I would make it sound more neutral, not in favor of the website and you need relaible-third-party references and sources to prove the accuracy and notability of the article. I might also recommend editing articles more before creating one, but good job! |:-) ~ QwerpQwertus ·_Contact Me_·Get Adopted! 02:28, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I recently added "Don Ashworth" - a noted swing and jazz musician who played for Doc Severinson, among many others. I would appreciate feedback on the article. Thank you.

Hi, thanks for making a request for feedback. I think the article is good, but there needs to be some improvements still. One thing I noticed was that another Wikipedia article was being used as a reference. As per the rules at WP:CITE, this is not encouraged, so please remove it. I think you should also try adding sections to the article to make it easier to read - things such as 'early life', 'education'.... you can add sections to an article by adding == == around the section name, such as ==News articles==. This is an easy way to create a new section. I hope this is useful and that you understand, but if you have any more questions feel free to either ask here or on my talk page. Thanks.
