I did appreciate your input - really very valuable and pertinent; so let's see what happens.

Hello Werldwayd,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Cut Your Teeth for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is significant enough to be included in an encyclopedia, and the artist doesn't have an article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

Last May, James Forrester announced to the world that London had been awarded the 2014 Wikimania conference. Functioning as the Wikimedia movement's annual conference, it is separate from the chapter-focused Wikimedia Conference. The first, located in Frankfurt, took place in 2005 and had 380 attendees. London, the tenth, is now expected to attract 1500. With Wikimania ambition, attention, and attendance rising significantly over the last nine years, how have this year's monetary costs come to be?

"Great success" in Israel universities is leading to collaboration and editing in high schools.
Last week I predicted that the World Cup dominance on the report would be over—but I was wrong. The World Cup Final fell on the 13th of July, which was actually the first day of the week covered by this report, not the last day of the last report. Hence, five of the Top 10 this week are again World Cup related-topics.
Galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMs) today are facing fewer barriers to uploading their content onto Wikimedia projects now that the new GLAM-Wiki Toolset Project has been launched. The tool, which is the fruit of a collaboration between Europeana and several Wikimedia chapters, relieves GLAMs from having to write their own automated scripts and gives them a standardized method of uploading large amounts of their digitized holdings.
The English Wikipedia's did you know (DYK) section has been a feature of the site's main page since February 2004. From the beginning, the section has served as a place to highlight Wikipedia's newest articles. But over the last few years, the did you know section has gotten steadily larger and more complex, and non-notable or plagiarized articles have occasionally slipped through the reviewing process, leading numerous editors to call for reforms to the system. We asked two editors to share their views.
Ten articles, five lists, and 25 pictures were promoted to featured status on the English Wikipedia last week.

Message personnel

Hello, I'm Lézard, of french Wiki. I saw that you have added the album Message personnel in 2013. This double CD is not a new album, just a reissue for sale at the fortieth anniversary of the original album, released in 1973. Of course there are some unreleased bonus tracks on the second CD, but this is a simple marketing operation of the record label as we see often these lately. And anniversaries are a boon more to counter the crisis on sales. All this to tell you, dear Werldwayd, it is undesirable that it be added to the list. With apologies for my poor command of the English language. Cordialy! Lézard, http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:L%C3%A9zard 82.226.28.41 (talk) 10:21, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Joseph Hanna

The article Joseph Hanna has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails the general notability guideline. No sufficient coverage in secondary sources.

While all constructive 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.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
