If an article needs further cleaning up, add {{cleanup}} to the top of the article. To see articles with this tag added, see Category:Cleanup
Some editors prefer that helpers work on leftovers and very old articles, just to deal with them and get them out of the way. But either preference, new or old; all help is appreciated. If you have a cleanup routine, add your name and your routine preferences (how often, old/new articles, what subjects, etc ) to the cleanup routine list.

Just In
August 29
- E. Sue Savage-Rumbaugh Text dump. Should be checked for POV. Correct name for the article should be researched. _R_
- Dr. Terrible's House of Horrible [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (talk)]]
- Zebra mussel Poorly written. Almost a stub. Needs wikifying, checking for typos [[User:zegoma_beach|zegoma_beach (talk)]] + I did some typo checks. ffirehorse 05:45, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Cisie A diacritical disaster. --Sesel 07:43, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Meir Har-Zion: Meir Har-Zion is a known Israeli commando, but instead of biography this article contains nothing but anti-Sharon gruch. The content need to be replace with a proper biography. MathKnight 12:19, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
August 28
- Velma Barfield - unwikified
- Michael Berumen -needs organising (article is one long paragraph)
- Jastrowie - wikification, clarification Andre
- Ancient trackways - would make an intersting article on British trackways, but currently very 1st person anecdotal style, also needs renaming Ianb - Just use the move tool tomove it; no cut-and-paste moves.
- Philip Marlowe - decent stub, but could use a loving copyedit for flow, and there's so much more to be said about the character
- Knights of Father Matthew - fmt, substub
- Forrest Carter - Major POV work by ignoring vast segments of Carter's real history - Went back and did some work on it.
- Alexandria class cruiser - needs to be wikified, needs to be written as an encyclopedia article, needs to indicate what universe it takes place in, needs to have image removed until an actual image is available to put there. - There is no image because I don't know how to place an image. I'm hoping someone will do that for me so I can see what they did and learn from it.
- Kylie Travis - I deleted something which said she is married to Eddie Vedder. I can't find anything but Wikipedia mirrors to justify this. Can somebody verify it? - It seems to be nonsense. An article in the Journal News based in Westchester County states she is married to developer Louis Capelli and Donald Trump introduced them. [1] I have added link to IMDB and correct marriage information to article as stub Capitalistroadster
- The N3 - uniwkified. Maybe move to South Africa Highway N3 or some other official title? - Just use the move tool tomove it; no cut-and-paste moves.
- Puffy_Amiyumi - a Japanese pop group. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk)]]
- Candied yams - just a recipe, but it deserves an article Guanaco
- Croft, Lancashire can't seem to decide what Croft it's actually talking about. Maybe it's supposed to be a disambig, but that's already at Croft? - RedWordSmith
- Middle America (U.S.) - first off, "Middle America" has somewhat pejorative connotations (at least here in the East) so I think the article should be renamed, though I don't know exactly what to call "non-coastal" America. Secondly, there are tons of redlinks, such as bicoastal and snow boom. - Maybe move it to Flyover states? RickK - Just use the move tool tomove it; no cut-and-paste moves.
- Disney's Fillmore - kiddie-wiki text dump ubout an upcoming Disney Channel series. It's actually formatted to some degree with some good character descriptions. Might be a pretty easy fix. - Cresent_Moon: HEY! Disney's Fillmore is cool! How dare you say that about a terrific television show like that!! I love this article and i don't think it needs to be inproved in anyway! - Sigh. RickK
- Like I said. Kiddie-wiki. Kid, why don't you (a) read my comment again. It's about the article, not the show which I've neither seen nor heard of and (b) take a look at the Wikipedia:Manual of Style to see how to do this right. You do not put personal points-of-view in any article. Finally, (c) cool your jets. There's a policy about no personal attacks here. - Lucky 6.9 07:28, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Mia - A dice game, basically a how-to-play at present. RedWordSmith
- Managee - just an ad at present seglea

- Tláhuac. Travel invitation mixed into text. VV
- Xerocracy. VV
August 27
- Abrahamic God - substub; says something that probably needs saying, but POV and overlap with existing articles need looking at seglea
- Meow Wars - needs expansion (what the heck happened? What's the "Raoul Xemblinosky" section doing there?), npovification — Gwalla | Talk
- all pages from Discontinued palmOne Handhelds -- POV. Dunc_Harris|☺
- Ranganatha Swami temple - needs wikifying and structure. Andre
- The Lizard King - needs wikifying and quite a lot of de-POVing, along with some discernible structure. [[User:Mike Storm|Mike
- Marshall McLuhan - an anon has spent the last several days adding a massive unwikified paragraph into the middle of the article. Reads like it was copied from somewhere else, but I can't find where. Has made it to one mirror of Wikipedia already. RickK +Much hacked and much dumped as unrecoverable NPOV, or too clever by half. I *think* what we see here is a media student's essay. C-, could do better --Tagishsimon
- Not sure where to start with this. The midsection seems to be more about Neil Postman and Harold Innis than McLuhan. ffirehorse 22:21, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Green chemistry - pulled from EPA website (thus probably PD, though haven't checked). Needs wikification and formatting. Diberri | Talk
- Representative sequences - well they're sequences, and they're representative, but of what is completely missing. Dunc_Harris|☺
- List of failed comic strips - This needs much cleanup than I can give it. Could someone help? Thanks. Mike H
- Alexis Arguello, Aaron Pryor - Competitors of Battle of the Champions, which I have just cleaned up. Both articles should be checked for POV. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk)]]
- Transportation in Tunisia looks like a copy and paste from the CIA World Factbook. Nothing but stats, no solid text. - RedWordSmith
- Filmmaking -- needs rewriting as prose rather than bulleted lists. —No-One Jones
- All buildings in Category:Columbus, Indiana -- I have found some US govt text, but there's quite a lot of it that needs wikifying. Dunc_Harris|☺
- SMD - substub, related to surface-mount technology Rvollmert
- GetCheapBooks - may or may not be notable, but certainly reads like an add
- HNoMS Rap - almost a stub. Needs wikifying, checking for typos. WegianWarrior
- Vibhajyavada - written by non-native English speaker, needs somebody to make some sense of it.
- Bag of Bones - breezy, first-person POV about the Stephen King novel; it's more story review and opinion than encyclopedia article.
- Evan Forde - copied from http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/od/people/forde/, whcih makes it public domain, but it hasn't been wikified.
- Sant Kirpal Singh - "overwiked"; also needs neutering Mikkalai
- Gene Starwind doesn't need the plot spoilers and does need improved information about the character. —Triskaideka
- Type R - Lots of juicy goodness for the Honda and Acura fans among us. I thought it was a copyvio, but I get no hits. Unwikied text dump written like an automotive review. Major POV-ectomy required as well a rewrite from a world standpoint instead of a UK one. Plenty of info to work with. Beats substubs to hell! - Lucky 6.9
- Karoubi envelope - needs help with math formatting. Diberri | Talk
- Mir Babr Ali Anis - Rough. Needs work. --LeeHunter
August 26
- RaD Man - This is looking for some additional detail. Checking the ACiD site for context.
- Redass - real Canadian ball game? Needs wikification, at the very least. Diberri | Talk
- The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra - needs formatting. Diberri | Talk
- Bindu -substub
- Seven Persons Canadian hamlet. Dunc_Harris|☺
- Weasel war dance Huh?
- Why would a ferret do a weasel dance? I think it would do something 'stoatly' different like a ferret dance! If a Zoologist does not clean up and explain, some one should delete but be careful because they bite Giano
- Election Results, Montgomery County, Ohio, Coroner substub; relevance?
- Joey Potter - supposed to be about a character in Dawson's Creek, but is actually about almost everything that happens in the series, as well as containing lots of minor errors. Deb
- Jim Ogston still needs tidy and establishment of notability. Dunc_Harris|☺

- Communicatio idiomatum sthg to do w/ Christianity. makes little sense, so nothing new there then. Dunc_Harris|☺
- Someone has copied the first two sentences of the Catholic Encyclopedia text (public domain, so no copyvio), and left out the 15o or so sentences that actually explain the concept. I've expanded it; it's an interesting concept for those of us who are so inclined. I haven't removed the cleanup tag - it makes a lot of sense to me, since it fits nicely into my view of the Incarnation, but could anyone with less knowledge of theology see if it makes any to them? Cnyborg
- Makes sense to me. Good work. ffirehorse
- Astrodynamics - someone added a huge block of unwikified text into it about a month ago, looks like a copyvio to me but I can't find it on the web. If it's not, it needs a good cleanup. Stormie
- SCP-ISM needs copyedit, context, probably an expert review
- Gardia (Nicaragua) - context. Diberri | Talk
- Belly (band) - cleanup, wikify, NPOV - MattTM
- Diseases of the nails - needs context and examples. Diberri | Talk
- Kvener - grammar is unclear: people or peoples? Burschik
- I think this needs to be split in two; the article covers both a mythological/semi-mythological people in Finland, and an ethnic minority in Norway. It might be appropriate to mentioned the other meaning briefly in each article, but I think they deserve separate entries. I can turn it into two coherent entries (expanding the bit about the Norwegian minority somewhat), but I need a suggestion on naming them. Cnyborg
- Killing spinor -- Mathematical term that needs a clear definition. SWAdair | Talk
- Cleaned up and clarified a lot, but still needs a good lookover from someone really expert in supergravity/superstring theory or related fields. Bhugh
August 25

Brain fingerprinting - needs context. Diberri | Talk
2 Gryphon: - Requires someone with knowledge of 2, The Ranting Gryphon's rants and shows to include alot more information

Critical thinking - consists mostly of bullet points, reads like a how-to.—Rory ☺
RFA Bishopsdale (A128) - Empty table [[User:Krik|User:Krik/norm]]
Radisson Hotels - needs NPOV
- Moved the links in the headline and text to 'external links' paragraph. The text itself still needs NPOV. Cnyborg
Follow The Reaper - same as above JamesMLane - should probably be at Follow the Reaper, but is this group notable?
Timeline of liberal parties in the Czech lands - Needs a lot of work on formatting, it is practically impossible to follow. Darksun
British Free Corps — very long, no headings, gave up trying to follow it, as I know little about the subject matter. — OwenBlacker
Osan - in South Korea; contradictory information on location. Kokiri
Activist magazine - Reads like an advertisement with no significant wikification and LOTS of external links to the magazine. Kevin Rector
Kanterovich inequality - Needs some context, right now it's nothing but a formula --Fenice
- Expanded, did some work but the article could use some review by someone who actually knows the field (math--vector spaces, linear algebra, matrix theory, etc.). Bhugh
Hawazma - needs wikifying, grammar improvement, has interesting information on an Arab tribe living in Sudan - (I started cleaning it up, but the user who wrote it reverted it. He's still working on it) --Fenice
2 Gryphon - Need alot more information. And a fan of 2, the Ranting Gryphon with alot of time on his/her hands to put some thought into it. It is mearly a reference to him.
August 24
Soviet-German cooperation: no header, needs rewording
Push-pull factors for colonists: unwikified. It also reeks of copyvio, but I can't seem to find any evidence. Probably a student's essay. The contributions of DetroitSportsFan12

Buffalo Blizzard some minorly notable five-a-side football team. Dunc_Harris|☺ 21:47, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Destination Imagination Dartmouth College contribution; needs tidy, establishment of notability. vfd if not improved. Dunc_Harris|☺ 21:37, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
The Man This is probably borderline VfD material, but maybe someone can salvage it. It could be an interesting read if it documented the origin and notable uses of the term. As it stands now, the largest portion of this article is a quote from a movie. Contains fair amount of POV, e.g. "would be rebels". Taco Deposit | Talk-o Deposit 20:49, Aug 24, 2004 (UTC)
- I added material about origins and usage of term over the decades. ffirehorse 22:11, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Heuijong of Korea -- Curps + attempted wikifying Srd2005 21:01, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Moved to King Huijong of Goryeo (to conform with how other Korean monarchs' articles are titled), but still needs cleanup. -山道子 (Sewing) - talk 19:58, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Haverstraw - there are several articles about different locations called Haverstraw, New York. This apparently belongs to one of them, but which one? - this one: Haverstraw (village), New York, to which I've moved its contents: they can be cleaned up there.
Lord Hannay of Chiswick - unwikified mess, seems to be an informal essay outline Andre 19:24, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Mocatta unwikified text dump, passes google test , may be awkward article title Lady Tenar 19:06, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
List of radio stations in Veracruz-Llave not a list but an unwikified mess Lady Tenar 19:06, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Planing is a nice discussion of Hydroplaning, which unfortunately also already has an article. The two need to be merged in some intelligent way and I'm not an expert. The final version should be at Hydroplaning since planing is also something you do to wood (planing could become a disambig). While you're at it, the discussion of hydroplaning from a car safety perspective should probably be made more prominent in the article.
Bacco-22-A and Agawam (grape) - apparently types of grapes but the only mention of the word "grape" in either unwikified stub is in the title of the second one.
Nekeme Prod - Was about to VfD it, but Arkhart appears to be a real, if not notable, game. Needs cleanup if it's not going to be VfD. --Golbez 16:27, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- The organization/club making it is on VfD and failing. The VfD vote is stipulating the deletion of this, as well.
Hunter Abbey - I attempted to give it NPOV, still needs work. [[User:Supadawg|supadawg - Talk]] 15:38, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Ashur-etil-ilani - needs fact-checking and expansion
Blizzard of '77 - unwikified, not contextualized (you have to guess it's in the US and the NE), possible copyvio.
RAHOWA_(band) - substub, notable? - To VfD with it. Smerdis of Tlön 15:04, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)

1964 Summer Paralympics, 1996 Summer Paralympics, 2000 Summer Paralympics, 1976 Winter Paralympics, 1994 Winter Paralympics, 1998 Winter Paralympics, 2002 Winter Paralympics - all have problems with overlapping/wacky tables. The 1998 Winter Games one is the closest to being okay, but still needs work.
Endocrine disruptor - focus, wikify. Lupo
Review-Anime - written by a non-native English speaker. Needs much work
- Moved to Houshin Engi. Still a mess because I know nothing about the series. See talk page.
Jung Myung Seok - a mess, and highly POV

Goguryeo. An ancient kingdom in East Asia that is claimed by both Korea and China. Doesn't need too much work. Kokiri 17:01, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Mainly, it's just that the tables of royal names (Mandarin Chinese and Korean), which have to be merged, so that one or more columns in the main tables are for the Korean pronunciations of the names. -山道子 (Sewing) - talk 17:24, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)

AIDS-related lymphoma - stubby and the second paragraph seems off topic. -Seth Mahoney
Craniometry - adapted from 1911 encyclopedia - needs more copyediting, and updating of language, stripping away of last shreds of 1911 worldview, fact-checking
Erste Schritte - huge, unwikied text dump. Might be copyvio, but I can't find it on Google. Also, the name doesn't match the content of the article. It seems to be about skater Eva Pawlik (sp?) - The name at the bottom of the page, Roman Seeliger, is that of the author of Die Wiener Eisrevue. Ein verklungener Traum ("The Vienna Ice Revue: A Lost Dream"), 1993. [2]. I suggest the text may be from this book. Erste Schritte ("First steps" uh, skating steps, probably) sounds a bit like a chapter title. Bishonen
John Strange Spencer Churchill Someone dropped this on us from a genealogy site: If cleaners find no notability to him, please list him on VfD. + Wikified and Cleaned: A man of no personal consequence, but as the brother of Winston Churchill, and father-in-law of his successor I suppose he is just notable Giano
Daniel Dumile Yo yo yo suckaz; hip hop thingie (AMG knows him). Also, IP who created this has created articles for each of his stage names. These should redirect back to this article, please. Only one article per performer, let's hope.

Stone, Staffordshire - unwikified. Reads like a copyvio (complete with author's name!) - Keith Edkins
Smart windows -substub
Mass (liturgy) - Can we have a better definition at the start? And why can't we have the theology behind the mass in this article? I don't see why I should have to look up a different site for this information - if it's important (as you'd hope it would be) then lets put it in. Lastly, this got moved from Roman Mass to Mass (liturgy), and the mover says that he did this because of emotional baggage of the phrase. He then says that Mass (liturgy) is a less accurate phrase that Roman Mass. If this is the case, can we have it moved back to Roman Mass? - Ta bu shi da yu
- It sounds right to include the theology behind the Mass, but in that case I would advocate moving it back to Roman Mass - if the theology is included, it should be made very clear from the beginning that this is the Roman form and understanding of Mass. I think it's sometimes unwise to move something to avoid emotional baggage in the title, as the article then often becomes more limites. There is no mention of the Anglican or Protestant Mass, even though the word is used in those churches too - the title should reflect that. Cnyborg

XML schema and XML have complementary content on the same topic. The information in both is accurate and fairly well-written (if I do say so myself), but a merger is probably warranted.

See Talk:XML schema. - mjb
