==Flags in infobox==
Hello, I see that it is the case to use flags in school infoboxes. There is a discussion (ending in stalemate) ] about whether or not they should be used in infoboxes. I think the article I was originally put to is ] when I used too flag a lot! There are a multitude of opinions of what the standard should be. Personally I used to be an over-zelous "flagger" putting them everywhere but now i've become the opposite and don't like them at all. In this case a standard has been set for this infobox but I'd be interested to know what other wikipedians thought and whether they think its necessary or not. ] (]) 23:07, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

==Speedy deletion of ]==
] A tag has been placed on ] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under ], because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see ] for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on ] subjects and should provide references to ] that ] their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of ]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ''']''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. <b>]<sup>] or ]</sup></b> 20:22, 26 December 2007 (UTC)<!-- Template:Db-nocontext-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom -->

I think you either got the wrong person or typed the wrong text into my userpage. Did you want me for something to do with ]? ''<FONT COLOR="#800000"><B>]</B></FONT>'' <sup>]</sup>/<sub>]</sub> 21:56, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

==Your recent edits==
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to ] and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should ] by typing four ]s ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the ], and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button ] located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!<!-- Template:Tilde --> --] (]) 22:03, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

==Speedy deletion of ]==
] A tag has been placed on ] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under ], because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the ], articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please ], as well as our subject-specific ].

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of ]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ''']''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. ] (]) 12:03, 27 December 2007 (UTC)<!-- Template:Db-bio-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom -->
