Since no one told me about the discussion, or gave me a chance to give input, I feel your unblocking was premature and wrong. You need to at least wait until I had a chance to give input. Guiom did not tell me about the AN discussion, nor has anyone even tried to address my concerns. I'm not about wheel warring, but this is ridiculous. ] | ] 11:05, 9 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

Neil, we can't be running around after a user who keeps uploading watermarked images, and remove the watermarks.

Hi, would you take a second look at this close, please? I think that there was a misunderstanding - the science park is an integral part of the school and not a separate entity. Consequently, an article on just part of a school is not practical. Whether the coverage of the science park part is sufficient to give the school notability is what the debate was about and the views were evenly balanced. IMHO this should have been closed as 'no consensus'. ] (]) 15:31, 9 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

Hello! As you could probably tell, I'm here to add the One Piece franchise to the list of highest-grossing franchises, but I wasn't really sure how. In 2024, there are plenty of sources that suggest One Piece should be somewhere on this list (most notably in the top 30 somewhere), and I tried to do it but I don't think my html skills are up to snuff anymore sadly. I was wondering if someone with more experience could either help me do it or add it themselves? Here are some of the sources that suggest One Piece should be here: | |||
