- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page to follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons' policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring and sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of Kenneth R. Powell
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Kenneth R. Powell requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — Timneu22 · talk 15:21, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Barbecue. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive; until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. - SudoGhost™ 17:44, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
The Barbeque is sources, it is relevant history to the beginnings of Barbeque and documented in the Journal of Archeological Society. Modern Barbeque in the primitive aspect is cooking meat over a simple fire. No matter if people in the modern world understand this or not.
- Please discuss this on the article's talk page before reintroducing the material into the article. Your information has been reverted by several editors, and WP:CONSENSUS is an important part of how Wikipedia works. - SudoGhost™ 18:02, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
History
[edit]A 7,700-year-old Stone Age barbecue feast has been described in the Journal of Archaeological Science. According to the article, the remains are found in the Tjonger River valley in the Netherlands.[1] It has been determined that the main course of this BBQ was a Auroch. The Auroch is a wild Eurasian ox that was living in that era. A flint blade was found near the Aurochs bones. The results of the study show that after the female Aurochs was killed, the hunters cut her legs off and sucked out the bone marrow.
Next, it is believed the individuals skinned the animal and butchered it using the Flint tools, reserving the skin and large hunks of Auroch's meat for carrying back to a nearby settlement to feed other members of the clan. Furthermore, chop marks left behind by the flint blade show how the meat was meticulously separated from the bones and removed. The people that killed the Auroch lived during the Late Mesolithic period of the Middle Stone Age.[2]
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
