Columbine, Colorado and Bath, Michigan
[edit]How is knowing the number of days between the two incidents remotely notable for an encyclopedia article, especially in the intro? --Golbez 10:53, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Golbez, Basic arithmetic was my best & favorite school subject, believe it or not! From fourth grade to now, 20+ years after highschool graduation, I still practice math. It was during my highschool years, that I decided to study over the Calendar. Reason? To figure out what DAY of the WEEK/WEEKEND, History Events originally occurred on. I also freely offer to tell anyone what day a birthdate occurred on, all he, she or they do is just tell me a Month Date & Year.
My parents birthdates, my five siblings birthdates & my birthdate. (8 birthdates, combined) Both parents were born on a Sunday, but 121 WEEKS & 847 DAYS apart, my five siblings & myself, three birthdates originally occurred on Wednesday's, two birthdates occurred on Tuesday's & one birthdate was a Friday. That is how & why I decided to figure out what day events occurred on & figure the number of days imbetween events. [Just like the two deadliest school shootings, back in June, I read of the Columbine School Shooting-Spree was (Tuesday, April 20, 1999) & Bath School Disaster was on (Wednesday, May 18, 1927) was a Wednesday] & their difference in days, among their dates was 26,720 DAYS [3,817 WEEKS & 1 DAY] apart. The Independence Day date of July 4th, 1776 was a Thursday & five days before the 230th anniversary (Thursday, June 29th, 2006) was 12,000 WEEKS & 84,000 DAYS after Thursday, July 4th, 1776. PS: I read the Associated Press' Today In History column. Incase you want to look at it yourself, the http address is:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/history
I have memorized the 12 months & by that I like to add what day dates occurred on. If you want to look it over, overnight I added the original air dates & added the day of the week, each episone originally occurred on. But I do not understand the wikify steps, I believe it means verify. I wrote down all 158 episode titles, when they still come on "Nick At Nite", during the 10 PM Hour, 11 PM Hour or midnight, back in the early 1990's & I still have the notebook now. I have kept it & made sure it was not thrown away. I also have all 181 episode titles & original air dates of "I love Lucy", in that book! Question: What are the EXACT STEPS TO WIKIFY? PLEASE, LET ME KNOW & I WILL ADD THE AIR DATES OF "I Love Lucy" show episode airdates, also. Final Note: My username is a numerical equasion, that requires all ten numerals (0 - 9) & the equasion 63 x 927 = 58,401. You may think I am "out of this world" because I am into arithmetic, so much. Also, there are 105 other equasions, 21 in Multiplication & Division & 84 in the Addition & Subtraction fields. Change fields & put higher # 1st the 106 equasions can jump to 848 & then spell divided_by or ...into the 22 equasions can be 176 more, totalling 1,024! 1,024 in prime factorization is 2 to the tenth power
and 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2. Please Write/Type Back, 63x927is58401.
Thank you for your extensive work in this article. However, Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, and we do not sign articles. Signatures are normally only used in discussions on talk pages. See WP:OWN. -- Fan-1967 03:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Actually I thought the work you did on this article was excellent, and had no problem with the date formats. I think it looks good. I just wanted to point out that we don't add signatures on articles, only on talk pages. (I know, sometimes it's just habit to hit those four tilde's just before hitting the Save button).

License tagging for Image:A Clip of Dick Van Dyke Show Episode, Buddy, Can You Spare a Job?.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:A Clip of Dick Van Dyke Show Episode, Buddy, Can You Spare a Job?.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 12:04, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Tony Dorsett's 99-yard touchdown rush
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Ambox_warning_yellow.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_yellow.svg.png)
The deletion of an article you created, Tony Dorsett's 99-yard touchdown rush, has been proposed for the following reason:
- Not encyclopedic, not sourced, not notable
You are welcome to improve the article to meet Wikipedia's quality standards and remove the deletion notice from the article. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion, though in such cases, further discussion may take place at Articles for deletion, and the article may still be deleted if there is a consensus to do so.
Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy. You may wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Disambiguation link notification
[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Time to Change, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Christopher Knight and Peter Brady (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The article NBA Record 18 3-point field goals in 1 game has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Given that some record-setting instances are notable (such as Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game), I fail to see how this is notable, especially given that this is no longer an NBA record; the Orlando Magic collectively made 23 three-pointers on January 13, 2009.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --MuZemike 00:15, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
