Hi Paul, warmest (belated) welcome to CZ. On speedy delete patrol I saw the (very nice) article on the US constitution and added some minor edits just to reinforce its acceptance on CZ. On dewikifying dates - as the links dont go anywhere now on CZ but just appear red and blind I removed them as distractions. Generally on CZ we're being much more parsimonious with links than WP - trying to make them more meaningful to the article and as the dates probably aren't going to link to anything cognate in the near future, as this article approaches approval I think we'd expect them to go.
Hope this makes sense. We're doing things a bit differently to WP and I expect the divergence to increase rather than decrease. We're emphasising style amd readability more I think as well as the expert bit, maybe more so.[[User:Gareth Leng|Gareth Leng]] 16:51, 20 February 2007 (CST)

Warm welcome, I hope you enjoy it here - bit tiresome just at the moment with vandal attacks, but it's a strong and supportive community emerging. Think toyr input on Jesus and related articles would be more than welcomed!Gareth Leng 04:35, 9 February 2007 (CST).

Article Deletion

Hi Paul. Thanks for the great job flagging the Ws for deletion. I've left two - The Winston Churchill article, although it hasn't had a huge amount of change, looks like people are working on it - Do you really think it should go? Also, the article on the Wannsee Conference was imported by a contributor who wrote the wikipedia article. So I think we should flag that its from WP but it shouldn't be deleted. -- Sarah Tuttle 22:40, 17 February 2007 (CST)
