You are welcome. Actually the vandal (who is from Australia) corrected it themsleves before I could revert the edit. Several other users also warned this vandal (I don't know their gender) so that they don't so this again. Chris (talk) 01:37, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
GA Nomination
I saw your comment on the GA nomination. One of the requirements is to make certain you have inline citations[1] on either every line or paragraph. You can look this up in WP:MOS and it can give you information on how to do this. I can help you on this if needed. 23:51, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- ^ Like this as an example
(Sorry about that). Chris (talk) 23:51, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- You will need to see WP:CITE. This will give you guidelines on citing articles, including how to do inline citations. I could not think of it originally on how to do this when you issued your comments in the edit summary yesterday. Sorry about that. Chris (talk) 15:27, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of William Underwood Company
The article William Underwood Company you nominated as a good article has failed , see Talk:William Underwood Company for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of said article. If you oppose this decision, you may ask for a reassessment.

Goldblith book
Regarding the Goldblith book, I have that book at home and will put in the links if you give me the chance to do so. I will revert your previous edit to keep the Goldblith book in there until I can get the inline citations because it does mention the William Underwood Company at length.

- Never mind. I see you have already done so. I can clean this up for you though if you would like. Disregard previous message. Chris (talk) 00:57, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Photographs of company
If you are planning on putting in images, please read WP:IMAGE. This will give you information on image copyright tags and how to put them in correctly. That you help you. Chris (talk) 19:39, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Re: Napster -- GA but two "needs cites" banners
I don't mind you tagging the article for reassessment. I think it has contracted considerable cruft since it originally achieve GA status. I wouldn't mind a mass reversion to the original GA version, as suggested by SimonLyall here. We could then re-incorporating important new additions individually, while adding citations. --Peter Farago (talk) 07:36, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
