Frenzberrian Catholic Church removed by sysops

Please don't create blank articles. You don't need to reserve a page title, especially one that no one else is likely to use. We have no problem with short articles that need expansion, but a non-existent article that is nonetheless already in two categories is unnecessary and unhelpful. Please wait until you have time to write some sort of article before creating the page. It's removed for now - please feel free to recreate it when you are ready to actually put content in it.

I also moved your TA page to Third Age (Frenzberrie). Per NSwiki:naming conventions, acronyms should be fully spelled out. If your're using an acronym that refers only to your nation and is not identifiable from the title, adding your nation name in parentheses makes it even clearer. → Fris Θtalk 17:20, 15 Jan 2005 (GMT)

overdoing it with links and categories

Could you maybe slow down on creating all these one and two sentence articles, and maybe just concentrate on one or two decent articles? All these little short articles do is add to the page count tally. They're not really informative. It would be better if you would stop linking and just add all this stuff to your main nation article.There is no advantage to having an article in every category, and adding every page to every possible category (for example, that internal 80 Years War that was added to your factbook, Wars, and History Categories) is just overloading the system. Just because it's easy to add a link or a new article doesn't mean you have to do it.

Take a deep breath and step back from adding articles for a moment. We're glad you're excited about NSwiki, but a bit of planning would be an improvement over this sprawl of short articles. Take some time to read more of the help pages, the style guide, and some of the other articles and category descriptions. Bear in mind that this place is for interactions between NationStates nations, not just a 'homepage' for your national history. A quick search of the forums shows only General and some random storefront activity, along with a few abandoned attempts at RP. If you want people to be interested in reading your work, you may want to spend more time interacting with other players rather than trying to push them into your own history. That's true in both International Incidents and on NSwiki. → Fris Θtalk 04:40, 16 Jan 2005 (GMT)

I have left a comment at the bottom of the article: Eighty_Years_War , in an attempt to prevent any later individual from doing the same. Sincerely, Rechze • (talk) 01:07, 21 Jan 2005 (GMT)
