Ta maveric149! I'm enjoying it, it's an interesting resource... Bbtommy

Hello. Please note that the first sentence of an article should be a complete sentence like any other, not a dictionary definition, and the title phrase should be highlighted very early in the article, preferably on the first line and usually at or near the beginning of the first line. For example, notice how I edited your Touch Rugby. 131.183.81.100 22:42 Apr 11, 2003 (UTC)


I see that you run your own wiki on your own site. I am hoping to do the same thing. But I need advice. What software are you using? How much space does it take up? Is the editing syntax close to that of Wikipedia? etc. etc. etc. Kingturtle 02:07 Apr 15, 2003 (UTC)

Okay, I'm using wakkawiki [[1]]. It's quite small, maybe 100 or so K, and uses up 5 MySQL tables. You can lock pages, it has commenting, a Recent Changes page. The editing syntax is not similar to Wikipedia, but uses a LotsOfWordsPutTogetherWithNoSpacesInBetween naming system. All in all, it's quite good. The best thing is to look around, Tiki looks quite good. Anyway, gotta go to bed! -- Bbtommy

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article PostNuke, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Jackaranga 12:29, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Permissive society has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

As presented, not an encyclopedic topic, covered in other parts of the encyclopedia.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. —¿philoserf?
