Wikibreak[edit]If you're stopping by to discuss policy, my edits, or just about anything else, be aware that I'm now on an extended break from Wikipedia to spend more time with my family and my students. I apologize for having left a few discussions prematurely, but there are plenty of capable minds here to handle anything which I may have been involved in. If you'd like to get in touch with me personally, feel free to use the email link. Otherwise, best wishes, and remember to keep your edits in perspective. It's just Wikipedia.

Survey Invitation[edit]Hi there, I am a research student from the National University of Singapore and I wish to invite you to do an online survey about Wikipedia. To compensate you for your time, I am offering a reward of USD$10, either to you or as a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation. For more information, please go to the research home page. Thank you. --WikiInquirer 02:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)talk to me The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{inactive}} and/or {{historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you! Delivered on behalf of xaosflux 16:33, 10 August 2007 (UTC) 2,000,000th Article![edit]Great work everyone! Our edits have contributed to reaching a Wikipedia with 2,000,000 articles. It's been a pleasure working with you. A good effort all round, and a Party at my Place! Dfrg.msc 06:23, 10 September 2007 (UTC) Tijuana![edit]I've been missing you mate. I even set up a Cactus Shrine to honor you memory. How have you been? Man, it's been a long time. Too long. I'm really, really glad an honored that you cam out of Wiki-break and supported my RfA. Seeing you sig made me jump! Cheers! Dfrg.msc 22:33, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
RfA Thanks[edit]
Hastings Town centre[edit]I'm very surprised that you decided to remove the db tag on the above. There is a fine article on Hastings but are we seriously now suggesting that towns need articles on their centres? There are even photographs of the town centre on the Hastings article! Paste 18:03, 1 November 2007 (UTC) Hello there![edit]In the usual odd turn of wikievents, I check my watchlist for the first time in over nine months and saw you edit. Hope marriage, ministry, and life is going well. Stick around! Keegantalk 06:20, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi. I saw that you carried out the deletion of the above page, and I was wondering if you could also issue a block against Pntnes (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), the SummerThunder sock that put it up. The case is too stale for WP:SSP, but it would be good to zap his sleeper accounts whenever we find them, in case he plans on reactivating them to edit protected articles in the future. Thanks. --Dynaflow babble 02:38, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Sorry for the speedy A7 tag. At first, it looked like critera for speedy deletion, but then the creator improved the article. Sorry for also not leaving the appropriete notice to the creator.--U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. deleted contribs 03:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC) Citizendium, the not necessarily free encyclopedia[edit]Thanks, Tijuana Brass. Look like an enigma wrapped in a conundrum! No, the answer is to rewrite for now and hope they straighten out there licensure issues. All of those article looked like keepers. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 21:16, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
The copyvio has been removed and the article stubbed if you would care to switch to speedy keep. Interesting developments all around. This is the last of the bunch. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 18:23, 8 November 2007 (UTC) Added clutter[edit]If people want to look up words, they will go to Wiktionary initially, not simply type it into WP. These type of pages are completely needless, and need to be speedied. Mr Which??? 06:11, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
I just wanted to say thank you for the barnstar. I enjoyed editing the article, but that really made my day! -- Kateshortforbob 23:58, 27 November 2007 (UTC) Faust (play)[edit]Hi. I've deleted the article, but please see WP:CSD#G4: a recreation must be "substantially identical" to warrant speedy deletion under that criterion. Faust (play) was about a similar topic, but not "substantially identical" or even similar to Sirc Michaels. IceKarmaॐ 05:34, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
ok[edit]But help = getting involved. A trusted Wiki admin (And no not a mate of mine) posted on that page yesterday and got zero response. I say I will take legal action and I get attention> I assure you if you see what has been said about me on wiki in the last year I have a case or a hundred so please do get involved. opiumjones 23 01:03, 1 December 2007 (UTC) blocked before my full response by a previosly unconcrned admin pls unblock to allow continuation of that discussion on talk pages 2 sets of eyes[edit]Indeed! Dlohcierekim 00:10, 2 December 2007 (UTC) Deletion[edit]Can you please explain to my why my article was deleted and the examples I cited were not? --Joshuakopel (talk) 03:04, 6 December 2007 (UTC) Guernol Lioness[edit]Ack- i was still working on that. Will fix it tomorrow. 5,000 year old statues are notable to me. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 03:30, 6 December 2007 (UTC) Too speedy[edit]Hey, you deleted an article on the Guennol Lioness, which sold today for $57,200,000 dollars. See this Yahoo article. You ignored a hangon tag. Please put the article back. AnteaterZot (talk) 03:32, 6 December 2007 (UTC) Never and thanks. Your still tops in my book!. Dlohcierekim 03:35, 6 December 2007 (UTC) I humbly request that you undelete this, as this is an article about a amusement park ride, not a person, coporation, group, band, or web content and does not fall under A7. Someone thinks that it's A3-elgible because it's very short; I tried to explain to him that it's a worthy stub-class article, but he just readded the tag (I reverted it a minute before you deleted it). hbdragon88 (talk) 03:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
I can understand the reasoning here for the withdrawal of that afd. I guess both admins (you) and non-admins (I) can learn something new every day, eh? Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 04:37, 6 December 2007 (UTC) 30 year block.[edit]Well, technically 30 years is less than indefinite. On a less pedantic note, teenagers goofing around are always welcome, as long as they don't try to wreck the encyclopedia, which is what they generally do. If they miraculously decide to become a good contributor (hasn't happened to me yet, unfortunately), I'd be very glad to reverse the 30 year block, welcome, and help them if need be. By the way, I just noticed {{test5}} doesn't list instructions on how to use {{unblock}}: I'll use {{uw-ablock}} and {{uw-block2}} now. Thanks for making me review blocking templates with this discussion. :) · AndonicO Talk 17:03, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
I thought I "proposed it for deletion" not "speedy deletion", whoops. Ryancormack (talk) 06:25, 7 December 2007 (UTC) Useight's RFA[edit]Thanks for your support in my RFA which passed with a final tally of 70/1/0. I especially liked that you noticed my six-character bio, I tried to have fun with that. Useight (talk) 08:40, 8 December 2007 (UTC) James Sloyan[edit]I don't know if you're still watching James Sloyan or not, but I think it could use another pair of eyes. There's some silly text in there, but any significant change I make gets reverted by yet another mysterious anonymous editor. eaolson (talk) 05:22, 9 December 2007 (UTC) Localgod Clothing[edit]Hey buddy. My page was deleted yet again after I cited several valid references. I thought the page looked amazing. Someone named Len deleted it and hasn't stated reasons why. Can you please check into it for me. I can put up the page again if you'd like to see what I changed. Thanks! --Joshuakopel (talk) 03:18, 11 December 2007 (UTC) Great success![edit]Click that-a-way to open your card! → → →
Theatre Editing[edit]Thanks for the heads up on the Michaels stuff. I was a bit thrown off by the immediate cornering as opposed to assistance, but it didn't turn me off to Wikipedia or the desire to help add to it. I would be very interested in helping with the theatre stuff. If there was something in particular, let me know. --Gonzodak (talk) 18:00, 12 December 2007 (UTC) Hey there[edit]I just noticed you recently returned as well. Ok, fine, Keegan told me. Let's just say I noticed. :) Nice to see you editing again! Cheers, Master of Puppets Care to share? 06:17, 14 December 2007 (UTC) Hi! Just a reminder that, when performing a merge, the article history of the page that was merged must be preserved per the GFDL. I have restored the history of the article Master Higgins and redirected it to Adventure Island (video game), which is where you merged it. Cheers, Black Falcon (Talk) 07:54, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Jose Luis Aquino and Zaydra Pena[edit]I am surprised at your deletion of these two articles, even though consensus ruled otherwise. I have listed them at WP:DRV and encourage you to join in the discussion. ''[[User:Kitia|Kitia]]'' (talk) 21:45, 16 December 2007 (UTC) Territorial evolution of Colorado[edit]How can I get an archived copy of the deleted article Territorial evolution of Colorado? As noted in the discussion, this was an article under development, and there was a fair amount original content lost. I would like to hold the copy until I have the time to develop an appropriate replacement. Thanks, Buaidh (talk) 15:10, 17 December 2007 (UTC) Thanks for the speedy response on the Afd. However, I think you should heed my advice on the protected redirect part of my post there. The anime and magna draws a lot of fans and they might re-create the article again.--Lenticel (talk) 07:39, 18 December 2007 (UTC) Sir James Baird, 2nd baronet of Saughtonhall[edit]Curious to know why this article was speedily deleted - it was nominated for deletion wiithin minutes of writing, and although there was a hold put on it, seemingly no discussion took place - and it had vanished within 12 hours. The reason stated was lack of notoriety for Sir James Baird - I just don't get this. At the very least he has the notoriety of being a titled Scottish noble - a certain level of notoriety attaches to this alone. Additionally he played a role in religion and politics in the seventeenth century. Wikipedia lists his name in a comprehensive list of baronets of Saughtonhall and has articles for some - it seems logical to offer at least brief information about others - their dates, who they are related to (important when the title is hereditary) and what they did. This is basic encyclopedic material found in other encycliopedias on and off line - why doesn't Wikipedia want it? Graemedavis (talk) 19:25, 18 December 2007 (UTC) Copyright permission obtained[edit]Dear TJ Brass, you deleted my article posted yesterday 12/20, http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/PearsonWidrig_DanceTheater for copyright violation. This morning I obtained copyright permission and submitted it to permission-en@wikimedia.org. Can you help get the article posted? Many thanks --Jonwiener (talk) 16:55, 21 December 2007 (UTC) Merry Christmas![edit]Hope you have a great one! Cheers, Master of Puppets Care to share? 04:23, 25 December 2007 (UTC) somali stub[edit]Thanks for your note. It's always a pleasure to de-speedy instead of de-lete. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 04:17, 27 December 2007 (UTC) Template:Socialism[edit]Why did you revert my changes to this template? I spent some time on this and for good reason. It displays better on articles with multiple templates, ex. Socialist state, and your revision has once again ruined the formatting of that page. I made it nearly identical to Template:Communism, which seems to be a perfectly acceptable template format. Please respond as soon as you can.

Although I am now wielding the keys to my very own Bitchin' Meatcar, I promise to uphold the laws of the land, martini in hand, in a way that would make Saint Sneaky Pete proud. I will do my best to be a Jack of Several Trades (although I may be a Master of Nuns). I promise to Heart Canadia. And I will make it my goal to Make War, Not ... er, Wait, Never Mind. I am glad to serve my guild, the League of Wikipedians. If I can be of any assistance, or you have any questions, suggestions, or criticisms in the future, please let me know. And if you are at a loss for what any of the above actually means, see this website. Thanks again.

Is there anything else I need to do to avoid deletion of the article?

Hi, and thanks again! Following is the clarification you needed: 1. is it just a website on its own, or is the website of a newspaper? - Yes, it's a website of its own and it published an article written by http://big.bg/ (Интернет Медия БИГ.БГ) - Internet Media Big.bg, which is an official internet media publishing company in Bulgaria. 2. Is the title of it "Internet Media Big" or something else? - Internet Media Big.bg is the publisher, the title of the article translates to "Slaveevi Noshti begins in Aitos" 3. And is there an author's name attached to this article? - I couldn't find an author's name, but under author it lists the publisher's name: Internet Media Big.bg Hope this helps. Thanks again! --NeoOrpheus (talk) 08:50, 31 December 2007 (UTC) |
