Re: Chordie and Wikipedia
I really appreciate your efforts.
Unfortunately I am unable to see the text you are trying to get approved. Could you post it here?
Re: Chordie and Wikipedia
It is always easier to get articles accepted if it is submitted by people with a long submission history. Isnt there any Wikipedia contributers around here...:)

Re: Chordie and Wikipedia
Per there was additional text added to this original text I posted and even a short version based on a conversation with Roger Guppy who recommended a brief description which I wrote down rote and I have searched the wiki for links to chordie and came up with several that are mentioned in conjunction with chopro,where I found a direct link to another chordie site domain and on my user page the discussion on the chordie forums still remains because I requested a hold on its swift deletion due to some unflattering information I dug up on the person who deleted it (this is war) this person indicated chordie had a "site comic" and I rebuked his statement by producing links to his user page on which he posed for a photo in front of a memorial dedicated to the fallen soldiers at iwo jima with a big smile on his face and stated it was in poor taste and disrespectful to the memory of the marines who were killed at iwo jima,this embarrassment put a stop to his further actions but other users joined in (there like coyotes at feeding time) so as it sits it is still possible to modify the attempt and re post another Chordie "candidate"for insertion into wiki.Russell

Re: Chordie and Wikipedia
I have updated my profile on wikipedia and all the information is verifiable so if a challange or "swift deleting" notice is posted I can back up any additional imformation with facts I have included a mention of chordie with references to its membership number,and the fact that its the largest search engine on the internet and my video tutorials for beginners on recording tips,also a reference to my city of residence (several historical landmarks are located here) and "Fish day" the largest annual gathering of the celebration of (you guessed it)eating fish! and listining to name bands and consuming quantities of alcholic beverages topped off by a dazzling fireworks display and all these facts are ALL verifiable so lets see how this floats
