Redirects
[edit]For some alternate spellings of Frontrunners, you created pages with the content "See Frontrunners". The best way to do that is to write
#REDIRECT [[Frontrunners]]
as the only content of that page: if you go to a page with that content, you automatically end up at Frontrunners. See Front Runners or FrontRunners, where this has been done. (For more information on this, see WP:R). Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 23:34, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
Coalition for Economic Survival
[edit]I noticed you re added Coalition for Economic Survival to the CES Disambiguation Page. I had removed it from the list for a reason after I consulted the appropriate policy pages. Please understand I did not just remove them. In the future please check the Page history's Edit summary or see the Talk page before re-adding content other people removed. I had explained why I removed it on the talk page Talk:CES#Coalition_for_Economic_Survival. Please Defend your re addition of Coalition for Economic Survival to the list or remove it.
Please either Explain why you read added it, remove it or write a Stub article about the organization. After you create the article you can fix the redirect for Coalition of Economic Survival because their only needs to be one article about it. Happy Editing--E-Bod 20:36, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Original Research
[edit]Please stop adding unsourced statements to articles about West Hollywood and the Sunset Strip. Some of the information you've added is incorrect. Particularly, the current location of the Viper Room was never the location of the London Fog. The London Fog was located where Duke's Coffee Shop is now, adjacent to the Whisky (8909 W. Sunset). Many, many sources are clear on this (e.g. "Sunset Strip As Memory Lane"). It was used as a filming location for "London Fog" in the movie The Doors, but that's the extent of the connection. Also, London Fog (nightclub) should not be a redirect to Viper Room. Please discuss on Talk:Viper Room if you are interested. Mike Dillon 02:10, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
- My apologies for fingering you for the Viper Room changes. I confused you with another editor because I had seen you add a bunch of unsourced stuff to the Sunset Strip article itself. However, please read the reference about citing sources, despite my error. Mike Dillon 02:14, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
Frontrunners
[edit]Regarding Frontrunners, our WP:MOS specificies very limited use of bold formatting, really just for the first use of the article title in the text. -Will Beback 22:41, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Log Cabin Republicans
[edit]Hi there -- you first added content that makes up a section to the Log Cabin Republicans page which has many weasel words and appears to be entirely unsourced (as per WP:POV and WP:VER). On the talk page of the article I have noted that it should be deleted unless it conforms to these official policies of Wikipedia. But I will hold back for a bit if you'd like a chance to clean it up, source it properly and not include your own analysis or opinion of the original material you are referencing. Thanks for working to improve the article. (p.s. you might want to start your User Page) NYDCSP 22:48, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

I thought you might like to know that Ronald Reagan penned an editorial in the Los Angeles Herald-Exaiminer, p. A19 on November 1st 1978 that was, in part, about the Briggs Initiative. - Enuja (talk) 23:27, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
