When I try to edit the article, it only displays the References section, not the body of the article. How do I get the text to display so I can insert links, etc.? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cohee (talk • contribs)
Thank you! Yeah, I'm a newbie... Cohee (talk) 19:43, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
I'm still waiting for written permission from the people who sent me the photos, so I can link them. Cohee (talk) 01:14, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
I moved the page back to this name because it's proper page-title syntax. Generally speaking, the subject's profession does not, by Wikipedia convention, appear in an article title. If it needs to (if there are two people with the same name, for instance), it should go in parentheses after the name. As follows, for example: John Smith (Welsh politician) and John Smith (architect), to name two of many. --User:AlbertHerring Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla! 20:33, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Thank you -- this makes good sense to me, though the use of parentheses doesn't flow well when used in other contexts. Or maybe there's a way around that I haven't discovered yet... I'm still on the going-up side of the wikipedia learning curve! Cohee (talk) 21:24, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Stephen Decatur Carpenter requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Sketchmoose (talk) 21:21, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Carl Hoppe requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 02:07, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:2003 LilAleeInn.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. [midnight comet] [talk] 14:11, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
I think I fixed it, by uploading the file again and choosing the tag this time. If not, please let me know and I'll try again. Still learning the ropes... Cohee (talk) 02:49, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
Hello. I have removed the copied material from http://www.ksat.com/travelgetaways/18420940/detail.html. Please do not copy/paste material from other websites.--TParis00ap (talk) 23:06, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the message -- can I use the link as a reference for the "citation needed"? I wasn't going to leave all the content, just the link, once I had the two references differentiated -- the 2nd reference information overlaps with the 3rd. Cohee (talk) 23:11, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
The article Carpenter House, Plano, Texas has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
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 {{dated prod}}
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 {{dated prod}}
will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Thedarxide (talk) 11:22, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

FYI,
The Carpenter (surname) talk page is having an interesting discussion on what should and should not be allowed. I have asked a few admins to review and make suggestions. Jrcrin001 (talk) 06:20, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

FYI
There is a discussion going on regarding disambiguation pages verses list pages.
Disambig pages do not want partial name listings. Until this is resolved, I created a list page. List of Carpenter related articles I am now stressing this instead of the disabig page for Carpenter related articles.
Hi. I've nominated Harry Hoogstraal, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. PFHLai (talk) 21:54, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Thank you! I agree that he is worthy of being spotlighted on the front page, and I hope the nomination is approved. I have a few more tweaks for the main page, from research that is ongoing, which might result in a minor change to the wording of the hook -- thank you for putting that together and nominating him! Cohee (talk) 13:23, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Harry Hoogstraal at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! — Rlevse • Talk • 00:16, 6 June 2010 (UTC) — Rlevse • Talk • 00:16, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
approved now also moved to a prep area so it should be on the main page within 2 days. — Rlevse • Talk • 13:37, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
On June 8, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Harry Hoogstraal, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
Thanks for uploading File:HarryHoogstraal1960s.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. IngerAlHaosului (talk) 09:29, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Philip Herbert Carpenter, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.kalahari.net/page_templates/searchresults.aspx?qs=MHxFbnRpdHlfRW5nbGlzaHxQaGlsaXAgQ2FycGVudGVyIHx8MHwwfDF8MjV8fHxNYXJrZXRQbGFjZUF2YWlsYWJpbGl0eVR5cGV8Rm9ybWF0X0VuZ19GYWNldHxEZWxpdmVyeURheXN8UHJpY2V8fHw=&displayShop=home&navigationid=1.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

Thank you for the very cogent defense of moving the article to my sandbox, and thank you also for moving it to the sandbox! If the article must be restored right away, please put the version I started with back up -- the revision underway is not ready for prime time. The article has been the topic of some hate mail I've been receiving -- if it's the same person demanding the article be put back up, be prepared for some hostile interaction with an angry and controlling person. Thanks again for your help and support. Cohee (talk) 14:54, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
Hi I just checked out your John Lingo it obviously needs work, but I could not find any indication of major notability. Where you planning on adding more?Drewerd (talk) 15:35, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
I know this has already been brought to your attention but please add WP:NOTABILITY to the article on Thomas Carpenter (1752-1847) as well. I have the urge to nominate both for deletion using WP:CSD#A7 or WP:AfD but I wanted to bring the issue to your attention first since you are the primary editor. In the John Lingo article the first paragraph is original research WP:OR because you have no sources to verify it. The second paragraph looks like your own analysis WP:SYN. The first paragraph says he was a Vicar in St. Hilary and the second paragraph says he practiced in Wales during the 1500s: this doesn't make him notable. This article doesn't say why he is more notable that any other vicar in Wales in the 1500s. Beyond being present during this time what did he do that makes him special or important enough to deserve an article? For Thomas Carpenter, the same issue is present—the lack of notability. I'm a veteran too but I don't see the point in having an article about myself on Wikipedia. I didn't do anything fantastic or amazing outside of the specific duties of my job. Did he win a medal of honor or a bronze star? Is there a military base named after him? What makes him more notable than any other veteran of the Revolutionary War? The second paragraph is particularly troublesome. It talks about how he manufactured glass and "witnessed a land transaction"—how is this notable? Please establish notability in these articles (for your reference, in biographical articles it is a best practice to establish significance in the opening paragraph WP:OPENPARA). //Gbern3 (talk) 18:36, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
Primary sources are where secondary sources come from.
The articles you tagged are about people who haven't gotten rockstar coverage on the internet. That doesn't make them not notable.
Notable is notable, regardless of type of source.
The information in the Warren L. Carpenter article, like others, is based on the references cited in the opening sentence, as is apparent when the content is compared to the references.
Details are added from more specific references cited subsequently.
Other articles also use this method, but they are not tagged. No one else has said they were a problem. Cohee (talk) 16:02, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:WLC Marine.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:
Thanks for uploading File:Jane T Lingo with Trumans USS Missouri 1946.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:06, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Stephen Carpenter (writer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Thriller (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.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Thomas Carpenter (1752-1847) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 184.107.200.59 (talk) 19:31, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

The article Sue Carpenter (Writer and pirate radio personality) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
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.
