Great Question Badge | |
Awarded to those who have asked a great question on the Teahouse Question Forum. There are no stupid questions, but some are excellent! Good questions are those that reflect serious curiosity about editing and help others learn. | |
Thanks for bringing your questions to the Teahouse!

Hi there, im ryan shell and i just got your feedback on the global warming article. I'm not sure i can do anything to fix the bias that you see when you read it- but you might consider laying out a clear case (state what the bias is, where it is, what needs to be done, etc) on the Global Warming TalkPage. Hopefully someone there can find a way to help you. If you have any questions, or need anything else feel free to leave me a message here or on my talkpage. -Ryan shell (talk) 21:43, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi Smerk. I noticed your question at Teahouse. Another editor that specializes in small towns is Coal town guy. He is relatively new and really hit the ground running with creating small town articles. Dr. Blofeld is also very versed, as another host told you at Teahouse. And like Bonkers said at Teahousee, towns are automatically notable, so articles on them are a great place for new editors to get their feet wet, so to speak. Notability is kinda hard to explain, but long story short, it is the standard on Wikipedia for whether a subject can have an article. WP:N. Good luck. I'll watchlist the article and keep an eye on it. Gtwfan52 (talk) 18:50, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
