Dear

You have deleted again “Eagle’s wing “magazine. This history it’s about two years going on without any valid reason. This magazine represents a big Albanian community, in need, which is almost equal with Kosovo population, represents even the Albanian communities in Kosovo, Montenegro, Macedonia and USA. This is the unique magazine that is used as a reference source for the problems of these communities. And it has more reason to be displayed in the pages of your encyclopedia than being deleted. It makes favors to you encyclopedia. These reasons, yesterday, on 26 March were presented to the administrator below: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/User:Future_Perfect_at_Sunrise, and he agreed that the article could be included again in the pages of the encyclopedia. You can see this even in the page of this administrator. We will put again the material in your pages and we hope to find your support. Regarding the references sources we will try to fulfill them, following your conditions. Again I repeat you that this is an article widely read and it does a favor to your encyclopedia. Respectfully Xanxari en. March 27, 2009 --Xanxari en. (talk) 11:16, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Alexis Grace (American singer), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Serious violation of WP:NPA

Hi Woohookitty. I'd like to report a serious violation of WP:NPA, which is going on in this discussion page. I come to you because I've seen you had some involvement in other conflicts relating Gibraltar articles. As you may know, this case follows a long history of British editors who do not allow any Spanish users to participate in the edition of any Gibraltar articles and is now going too far with insults like utter dick from user:Justin A Kuntz, just because he is losing a debate. Please stop this person from abusing other editors, his behaviour is unacceptable. Thank you in advance. --Té y kriptonita (talk) 14:26, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Re above and Proboscis Monkey

Well, what a weird person above. British are like that. They don't like to be educated that their history is mainly lies, boast and propaganda. Anyway- I notice some edits on proboscis monkey- I was just wondering if you had anything to add or contribute- as some of your edits do not quite seem to make sense- maybe its' my reading. Anyway- not angry or protecting my 'baby':- more than happy to have extra help- please discuss on the talk page of proboscis monkey. PS- I would keep going with the Gibraltar articles just to annoy the silly people. Viva campaña de la verdad "jebel Tarik"!Starstylers (talk) 18:04, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Hey there

As an admin and one of the more respected wikipedians on the American Idol discussion pages, I would appreciate it if you could offer your opinion on this if you get a chance, regardless whether you agree or disagree with me. :) MarkMc1990 (talk) 20:42, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

I notice that this category you created is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted without discussion, in accordance with Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1. I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding [[Category:Georgia (U.S state) government navigational boxes]] to pages that belong in it.

I tagged the category. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of tagging and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to remove the tag if you wish. However, removing the tag will not prevent deletion of the category if it remains empty.

If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{db-author}}.

I am a human being, not a bot, so you can contact me if you have questions about this. Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 04:14, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

I don't know how you do it. I start a page and in my sloppy way put in ambiguous links like [[Greek]], then I come back soon after and find you have fixed them. There is something really comforting and reassuring to see that Woohookitty has taken a look at the article and fixed it up. But maybe you make us other editors lazy? Thank you so much, you are doing a great job. Aymatth2 (talk) 00:12, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

When prodding

Just a friendly reminder to use an edit summary when proposing deletion for an article. Edit summary usage is always good, but it is especially important that edit summaries are used when proposing deletion. The reason for this is that articles proposed for deletion that later have the {{prod}} tag removed should not be proposed for deletion again, but rather sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. The only easy way to check if an article was previously proposed for deletion is to look at the edit history and the edit summaries people have left before. Thanks!

Dear,

You are tiring us with the deletion of “Eagle’s wing” magazine from your encyclopedia. Your action seems intentional because you could have let enough time to the other collaborators of the encyclopedia to edit the article, as you do with other articles that can be firstly incomplete but then they become complete. There are tens incomplete articles in the encyclopedia and nobody has deleted them. We are astonished by your unfair behavior.

Hi - saw you edited this page. This page was nominated for deletion; it seemed to me that consensus wasn't really reached but the decision was to keep.

User:Woohookitty,

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia!

Is it really an encyclopedia of free thought which supports advanced developments, the fair and honest issues, which expresses itself against genocides and vandalism?! I don’t think when it has such conspiratorial administrators! With such administrators it seems as Encyclopedia- dictatorship which supports only the unfair strong persons! Why don’t you delete hundreds of articles with two rows that you have in your encyclopedia and instead you deal so much with the article “Eagle’s wing”? You have to become fair and honest judgers and let the article “Eagle’s wing” in your encyclopedia and so the others can have the possibility to judge and edit its content. Many friends of the Cultural Community of Chameria and I are disgusted by this massacre against free thought practiced at Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia! I hope you will give up having such attitudes.

And if you are careful, you will notice that there are new sources and references of the most reliable.

Deletion of content in Rob_Shepherd entry

http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Rob_Shepherd&action=history

Hi. On May 27 you undid additions I had made to this page: your action was on the grounds that two entries for two different people sharing the same name were confusing and you suggested another page should be started to say what I had to say. But how do I start a separate entry with the same name as the existing entry?

In practice: there are two people with the same name who've both had UK media careers and who should not be confused with each other and have the right to equal prominence within Wikipedia. Is it possible to have two entries with the same name? If not, surely there need to be two entries on the same page, otherwise how would one resolve who has primary title to their own name?

Be grateful for your advice.

While my membership is related, 99.99% of the brothers in Alpha Phi Omega-USA have no idea who Scouts Royale Brotherhood is, the cultures between the USA and Philippines fraternities are *significant*. I'm on both the National "International Relations Committee" and the National "History and Archives Committee" which adds up to being an Alpha Phi Omega geek. :).
The Alpha Phi Omega page actually has its purpose (which is almost identical) in paragraph three in the header. I think it might not be so bad on Scouts Royale Brotherhood if it weren't an H2 header. If I could move it down to H3, do you have a suggestion for what header might include them all? Also, I *think* it is an exact quote, but unfortunately most of the www.srb-lfs.org site requires logging in. I'm going to go ask on a Philippino Fraternity webboard that I'm on to see if I can get something.Naraht (talk) 15:20, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Goals may be OK, but I'm looking for something wider that might cover everything from purpose to official flower (if they have one).
I'll keep an eye on it anyway. The pages for the Fraternities in the Philippines get an incredible number of edits from brothers who don't have english as their first language and only care about their own fraternity as opposed to the rest of Wikipedia. I'm the primary editor on List of fraternities and sororities in the Philippines, you should see some of the edits...
At least for most of them, their first language is english. I may end up learning Tagalog to understand some the comments/vandalism.

So I'm searching for live voices, for accounts of active users.

I see you are highly active in Wikipedia, so I thought your experience and opinions would be a great help. Would you by any chance care for an email interview? You just have to answer several questions, but it will be of tremendous meaning for me. If you have the time, please contact me on my user talk page and I'll mail you the questions.

Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.212.147.98 (talk) 17:22, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Reliable sources: Twitter?

Hey! I know we don't consider random blogs to be reliable sources of information, but does Twitter fall under that category? I ask because Nigel Lythgoe has an account, and his updates have included the [currently unsourced] information that Louis Van Amstel, Shane Sparks, and Wade Robson are going to choreograph/judge for SYTYCD this season. Since he's the producer, I would assume he's as reliable a source as we can get, besides news reporting and announcements on the show itself. What do you think?

Despotate of Epirus languages

Could you please join Talk:Despotate of Epiros, and help us resolve an issue regarding main languages. The user Alexikua claims that Albanian migrations were limited and he moves Albanian language from main languages of the area to limited use languages. I have provided the necessary sources that clarify totally the issue of Albanian being a main language, but he just keeps reverting them. Could you take part in the clarification of the issue as you are an admin? --Sarandioti (talk) 10:48, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi, sorry for interrupting, it seems there was a comfusion about the language of the Despotate of Epirus, Saradioti cumfused the Despotate of Epirus with the Despotate of Arta (althought that's explained on the article's first line) which was Albanian speaking indeed.

The migration argument concerns the geographic region of Epirus not the identity of the Despotate of Epirus. Moreover the books he provides claim that there was a continuous struggle between the Despotate of Epirus and Albanian clans (however he claims the opposite that it was Albanian itself).

Turkmen people and Turcoman etc

Hi, Woohookitty. I have noticed the large number of links you made recently to Turkmen people. Please know that many of these links are not accurate. Turcoman is a name assigned to the semi-nomadic populations of Oghuz Turks who inhabited large parts of Anatolia, the Middle East, and the Iranian plateau. It is primarily a historical designation. While the modern Turkmen people are related, the two groups are usually considered distinct. When I write the word "Turcoman" in an article, I tend to leave it unlinked as there is not yet a satisfactory article to link to. Perhaps the most accurate would be Oghuz Turks or the section of that article entitled Oghuz_Turks#Turcoman_.26_Turkmen. Aramgar (talk) 16:37, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick response. Some of your changes however were perfectly appropriate. Regards, Aramgar (talk) 14:30, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

New article

Hi Woohookitty,

I am new to Wikipedia discussions so I do apologise if this is not the correct place to ask this :)

I recently added a new article that you deleted as being too advertorial.

What should I do or change to make this acceptable for Wikipedia?

Many thanks!

Hello

I noticed that You are in Anti-vandalism unit. I want to report that user Bluebird207 is vandalising articles about Opel Omega, Opel, Opel Rekord and couple others as well. His edits consisting eternally from deleting well sourced material and helpful internal links.


Couple of examples:


In article about Opel Omega he deleted way above 700 lines of text without adding any single line (I completely refurbished this article some time ago, adding lot's of informations and don't like that someone is simply using delete key without any sense or reason whatsoever). More than this, after my revert he done the same thing again!


In article about Opel Rekord he changed United Kingdom to UK without link - why?


This article is much interesting I don't know what for was this edit since completely nothing has changed: http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Vauxhall_Belmont&diff=295645877&oldid=247783157


Given those informations I dare to say that he's only doing this to bounce up his edit counter.

Hope You'll help me with this

Your Disambiguation Efforts

Your efforts to disambiguate wikilinks are worthwhile, but see two things to complain about. First, it's often the case that what you're disambiguating is spam, and then your edit makes it a little more time consuming to undo the spam. See e.g. today's edits of John Tyndall and Alexander MacAulay. I suggest you wait for a week or two before disambiguating anything new, to give the ambiguous link more time to be cleared out as spam. Especially when the edit being disambiguated was from someone who isn't an Wikipedia:Autoconfirmed user. Second, it's not rarely the case that links you are taking trouble over are inane and worthless. In the two articles I just mentioned, for example, you changed the link from English to English people, whereas nobody reading an article about 19th century scientists wants to follow a link to learn what "English people" is. It would be preferable to delete the link altogether. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Seanwal111111 (talkcontribs) 17:23, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Honestly, I'm not sure how this can be considered "spam". That is one of the edits I changed. Listing a nationality of a person is definitely not "spam" by any means. This is another edit I changed and again it's not spam. And honestly, whether the user is autoconfirmed or not means absolutely nothing in terms of general editing. That only matters if the person wants to move a page or patrol a page or whatever. Both of the edits you are referring to are legitimate edits. The fact that the users do not have registered accounts or are not autoconfirmed does not make them "spam". As for your second point, I think that nationality is very important when it comes to articles about people. You are entitled to your opinion about nobody wanting to follow such links but they are in just about every article about a person, living or dead. --User:Woohookitty Diamming fool! 04:30, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
In the case of the edit to physicist Tyndall, the new text had removed him from Category:British_mountain_climbers whereas he is famous as mountain climber (see Weisshorn, Matterhorn); and placed him in category English_physicists whereas he's already in Category:British_physicists and furthermore he lived in Ireland until age 22; and introduced the notice that his ethnicity was English whereas he was not an English ethnic or any ethnic. In the edits to the mathematician MacAulay, the new text removed his name from Category:Australian_mathematicans whereas he spent the bulk of his working life at an Australian university; and said that his citizenship was English whereas his citizenship was British (and I suppose Australian also); and again makes the laughable edit that his "ethnicity" was "English" which I think is just silly because he wasn't ethnic. On the other point, I disagree with you when you say that nationality is important. In the context of mathematics and physics anyway. But no matter whether it's important or not, it is inane and worthless to have LINKS to well-known nations in the context of mathematics and physics history articles. There used to be a custom at Wikipedia to have a link to the day of the year of a person's date of birth, and also a link to the year of the person's date of birth. The custom has died out. I suggest for your consideration that the nation custom should die out too. Seanwal111111 (talk) 17:47, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
I actually didn't see the cat change. Having said that, just change the cat back then instead of reverting the entire edit. As for the nationality thing, again, you are entitled to your opinion but I think you are comparing apples to oranges. Yes the date is no longer linked but it's still there in the infobox and in the opening line of the article. You completely removed any mention of the nationality. The fact that you think its useless information is your opinion but it's not a guideline or policy on Wikipedia. Yes we no longer link the date (The archives on here have major discussions on the topic) but this was changed per consensus and not just based on one user's opinion. Do I think the nationality should always be mentioned? I think it's often useful as I think nationality tells you more about a subject than just the date of birth does. Nothing in the date of birth articles pertain to the subject but the nationality articles might. But in any case, I'm here to uphold consensus first and foremost and the consensus is to link them. --User:Woohookitty Diamming fool! 02:06, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
The fact that you are sometimes unable to discern between legitimate and illegitimate edits strengthens the case that you should delay your disambig efforts until a week or two has past after an ambig link is introduced. As a different kind of example, you have made a half a dozen disambig edits at Robert Boyle over the past few months, all of which were undone or redone later by others -- the article has had a lot of reversion activity. I suggest for your consideration that these have been a waste of your time and that you could use your valuable time more effectively by delaying for the week or two. A worthwhile link will stand for years. A week or two is nothing. The delay would also increase the use of time of others who, when using UNDO, are inconvenienced by the edit conflicts created by you. Incidentally, in the Tyndall and MacAulay articles I did not "completely remove any mention of nationality". Rather I removed one redundant mention of it; both articles still mention nationality more than once. Seanwal111111 (talk) 20:44, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
Another consideration is that many people don't have a single nationality -- that includes MacAulay who grew up in Britain and lived most of his life in Australia. It also includes Robert Boyle, and it is the cause of the reversion activity at the Robert Boyle page. I think the right way to solve such a reversion dispute is to not mention the disputed nationality in the article's first sentence, and let his nationality emerge from the details in the article, plus put dual mentions for nationality in the Categories at the foot of the page. That's what I did at the MacAulay article. The Tyndall article prominently declares his nationality in his infobox. Seanwal111111 (talk) 21:03, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Story -> Short Story

Re: my List of films based on war books

Hi, There is no precedent for using "Short Story" on any of my war film pages.

In the context of a movie, "story" does not necessarily mean "short story". Ok? "Short story" on my pages constitutes an error. Or has the potential to. I need the word "Story" because it is vague, and therefore accurate.

I have been talking to "RussBot" about how to retrofit that stupid column in my table structure where some guy decided 3 years ago that "Novel" and "Story" needed to be lookup fields, with 200 lookups on the word "novel" on every single page.

Thanks for disambiguating, but it's not helping the situation right now.

And please change every occurrence of "Short story" back to plain "Story". I don't like to see errors on my pages.

Thanks, Varlaam (talk) 14:42, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

And don't waste your time disambiguating "Play" or "Musical" either. We're going to solve this issue a different way. Cheers.

I even asked you about this issue up above on June 10. If you responded somewhere, I didn't see it. Sorry.

Possesive User

  • Hi, I noticed you had left a message on the talk page of a user known as Varlaam and warned him about being too possesive of articles. He doesn't seem to have paid any notice as he is still continuing to act as though he is the sole owner of these pages, and often signs himself as "the editor" such as on the discussion page of the List of films based on war books — pre-1775. On my previous visits to wikipedia I was led to understand that personal ownership of pages was strongly discouraged.

I don't want to sound catty, becuase this user appears to have put in a lot of time and effort into these pages, but he has also used it to insert some non-neutral stuff as well. I'm not a very experienced user, and I wondered if you knew if there was anything that could be done about this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.157.89.44 (talk) 21:04, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi there! I noticed that in several places you disambiguated crossover on comics characters articles to intercompany crossover. While this may be appropriate in some cases, such as Superman meeting Spider-Man, or the Avengers meeting the Justice League, it doesn't seem to work in cases of Batman and Superman getting together, or when Marvel does a storyline featuring characters from several titles; I think the best thing to use when only one company's characters are involved would be Fictional crossover#Comics. 67.175.176.178 (talk) 14:35, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

I realize that since I didn't change them all to the language (quite a few went to Pahlavi Dynasty). But to me the ones I did change seemed to fit that description. The link on the disam page does state that it refers to the language and the speakers of the language. I don't do disamming without thought, trust me.
