:It's not that he hasn't discovered them. It's that personal names in Errinundera are ''not'' capitalised. As is indicated in the article you mention: "The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is '''antarcticad'''." I assume the cleanup notice is for the article's format, though. (P.S.: Please sign your comments.)[[User:Aridd|Aridd]] 22:05, 9 June 2006 (GMT) Have completed a major re-write.

*[[History of the Revolution]] - It's unclear what Revolution this is, who the characters are and where it takes places.

Articles that require an extensive cleanup should be submitted to the list below with details. See Wikipedia:Cleanup process for more information.

Basically, if the article isn't quite a stub, but it is in need of more content, a re-wording, or even just a structural adjustment, it should be placed here. Those NSwikians who prefer to be editors can then go through this list and make their contributions to those pages that are most in need of help. This should not be a list of stubs. See also, What to contribute.

Note that articles in the general namespace should be put here, not meta pages.

Categories for cleanup

  • The entire Regions category needs to be sorted through with most being put in Historic Regions

For a review of the situation regarding articles in Category:Sober Thought, please see the relevant section on that user's talk page. The initial concerns can now be found on category talk page. Gruen2alk 19:04, 29 November 2005 (GMT)
