message: Has anyone got a photo of this event.... it would really make this article. I can help with loading it. It has to be your photo or we run into copyright issues. Victuallers 22:29, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: [Untitled]

message: I added the Unreferenced, Original Research, and Informal templates. Interesting enough subject, but it really needs to cite verifiable third party references and be rewritten in a formal, encyclopedic tone (for instance, not written from a first person point of view, as occurs in the article as currently written).  DOONHAMER | BANTER  00:47, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I object strongly to the contributions made of adding templates that are inappropriate. We may not have a template that says "not enough refs" but that doesnt mean we can add one that says "no refs"  when obviously there is. We should not add an "unnotable" template when it obviously is notable ... there is a reference to prove it. I agree that this article needs improving ... but sticking templates all over it is not going to achieve this. If you have the time then improve it a bit ... otherwise leave it tagged as is Victuallers 07:54, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Its not that important to me. The needless addition of templates does concern me per se. I'm willing to sit back and wait whilst the templates attract the interest you predict Victuallers 15:03, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: References and Style

message: I don't think there is a WP criterion for "too many tags"; it seems that whichever templates are  appropriate are the ones added, irrespective of number. That said, there is overlap among them, and as the Notability template does incorporate the same concerns as the Unreferenced template and also best exhibits the main concern of this article (its lack of notability as currently written as specified in WP's guidelines), I replaced the one with the other.
I will work on this article this evening, improving its notability with reliable third party sources. If anybody would like to do the same before then, please feel free.  DOONHAMER | BANTER  17:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
