Fictional hurricanes

Oh, I'm not discouraged. I just do it for fun. I asked if you wanted to join in because I wanted to know if you wanted to play. (Of course, Wikipedia is already a good place to have constructive fun. :-)) Good luck! Dylan620 Life story 21:45 UTC October 3, 2008

Tropical Storm Norbert

Norbert's active now, which means so am I; I'm starting an article on it in my sandbox. Of course, the article is extremely stubby, but that's because I literally just got started minutes ago. Just thought you'd like to know.

P.S.: I'll remember to take your advice, and read a featured article (I'll read Hurricane Lane (2006), because it had origins similar to Norbert).

P.S.S.: In your spare time, come play a game here.

Have fun! Dylan620 Life story 10:30 UTC October 5, 2008

Another request for reference-checking

If you've got time, could you also take a look at the references for Theodore Kaczynski and post the results on the article's talk page? Thanks in advance! Gary King (talk) 15:40, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Okay thanks; all resolved. Gary King (talk) 15:53, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

You were owned...

at G.A.S's talk page. Lol. ;) — Ceranthor [Formerly LordSunday] 23:59, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

RFA Thanks

Juliancolton, I'd like to thank you for voting in my RFA. Thanks also for expressing your trust in me, and I hope that I live up to your expectations. Don't forget, if you have any questions (or bits of advice), please leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again, Spencer^T♦C 02:15, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

For me, it's Don't Delete ITN. :D. Thanks again, Spencer^T♦C 02:19, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Checking sources

Julian, when checking sources, don't forget to look for mixed citation styles. The easiest way to check is to view the article in edit mode, scroll to the bottom of the page where transcluded templates are listed, and see if both {{citation}} and any of the cite xxx templates (book, web, journal) are mixed. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 16:21, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Will do, thanks for the reminder. 17:35, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Move request

Please move Vatican City culture to Culture of Vatican City (over the redirect), to match the standard naming used on the rest of the countries (see Cultures of present-day nations and states). There's multiple edits at the destination, so I can't make the move (I'm not an admin).  :( But you are! Congratulations!  :) The Transhumanist    23:45, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

More insults, same Anon

[1] Apparently 24.67.253.203 is indifferent to warnings. He again has posted insults to anyone that disagrees with his/her POV. Also, he/she has removed the referenced material from the Murad Gumen article. Kansas Bear (talk) 19:52, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Update

A couple of us have been working on another country page...

Topic outline of Vatican City is almost ready to be moved to article space.

Would you look it over and see what you can do with it?

I'm sure you'll notice or find things we missed.

Reference check

If you've got time could you take a look at the references for Final Fantasy XIII and post a report on the talk page? It used to be littered with a lot of unreliable sources but I think I've cleaned them all up. Thanks in advance! Gary King (talk) 16:37, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Actually could you post them on the article's Peer Review? Thanks! Gary King (talk) 16:38, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Okay thanks; please watch the PR page, I will respond there. Gary King (talk) 16:49, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

On a general note, if you're up for it, you could also take over some of what Ealdgyth does at WP:FLC. She also checks references there and it'd be helpful if you could cover some of that, too, especially since a lot of lists have much less references than FACs so it shouldn't take as long :) Gary King (talk) 21:09, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Education and the Vatican

Found these:

• Academies in Vatican City:
  • Pontifical Academy of Sciences
  • Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences
  • Pontifical Academy for Life
• Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (Vatican Library), includes the Vatican School of Librarianship
• Congregation for Catholic Education
• The Vatican Museums
  • Conducts guided tours for school institutions (field trips)
  • Publishes educational guides for children and youth
• Vatican School of Palaeography, Diplomacy, and Archivistry, run by the Secret Vatican Archives.
• Vatican City is too small to host extensive educational facilities, but the Holy See operates several pontifical universities close by (in Rome), which are often considered part of the Vatican:
  • Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum)
  • Pontifical Gregorian University
  • Pontifical Urbaniana University
  • Pontifical Lateran University
  • Pontifical University of the Holy Cross
  • Salesian Pontifical University
  • Pontifical University Antonianum

I moved List of universities in Vatican City to List of pontifical universities, since they are not physically in Vatican City itself.

I bet there's more. :)

Hurricane Donna

Preparations were added. What kind of aftermath were you looking for? I know in some articles we can include aftermath after significant destruction has occurred, but I haven't uncovered anything like that for Donna. Thegreatdr (talk) 22:04, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
