Hi there; you seem to have added a 'Support' !vote in the 'Neutral' section, if you could move it it would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, GiantSnowman 23:02, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
FYI - I declined the speedy. It says in the body of the text that he was a member of the Irish House of Commons; that should mean he passes WP:POLITICIAN. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 23:04, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

blankings at Tanoli
See Talk:Tanoli#Vandalised_once_again. The blanked content has been challenged and has no sources supporting it. I have restored the sourced sub-tribe list, which had lost the sources at some point in time. --Enric Naval (talk) 14:33, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
Updates in Events of 20 January were being Deleted
Hello,
I'm glad to be an editor for wikipedia. I've updated the "events" section on the page of January 20 with following content.
"2011 Mobile Number Portability (MNP)flagged off in India by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh"
But I found that after refreshing,the page it's not updated.
I've done for 3 times but in vain.May I know the reason!!??
ThankYou

It seems that the other editors who are undoing because they are saying that the event is not a notable or credible event. I suggest maybe putting a reference there or contacting the editor reverting it. Baseball Watcher 21:31, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

I am sincerely sorry for the disruption I have made in the Family Game Night article discussion, I am glad that you are trying very hard to revert/delete vandalism and get promoted to a Wikipedia administrator, however, the comment that I have deleted was MY comment. So therefore, you have ABSOLUTELY NO RIGHT TO WARN ME OR BLOCK ME for that incident. You know what, I'm taking back the "sorry" I gave you. (P.S. You owe me one free warning.) (Also, NOT to insult you, but I dislike your userpage. I DISLIKE FOX, not hate them. Also, I hope no Nazis or Nazi fans see your userpage, they will seriously violate your userpage rules and vandalize your userpage.) (I'm a Giants fan. Leaving now. Goodbye.) (Let me say it again if you didn't hear me: I'M A GIANTS FAN!!! TAKE THAT!!! :D) (APRIL FOOL'S!!!) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.146.33.221 (talk) 07:02, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Updating pictures on an existing Wiki page
Hello,
I have a copyrighted picture of Canadian professional tennis player Aleksandra Wozniak that she would like to put on her Wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandra_Wozniak) replacing the one that is already there. How do I go about uploading the picture and making the change on her page?
Thanks for your help, Melissa Boyd — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boydmel (talk • contribs) 02:07, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- You would need to upload it write Wikipedia:Upload or go right here and upload it. Baseball Watcher 02:13, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Just a quick note to say I removed the speedy deletion tag from this article because I believe it contains a credible claim of significance, sufficient for A7 not to apply. Specifically the article claims that the subject's works are in the "permanent collections of several notable galleries" which, if true, would be enough to pass WP:ARTIST and be considered notable.
Cheers,
Any reason for the revert on Tiffany Mynx?
Please read Wikipedia:Good faith, I believe reverting my double cited source is an unfounded accusation of vandalism. I noticed that you did not cited a reason and have been on Wikipedia for a month please follow proper protocol in this situation, otherwise arbitration may be involved. Thank you.68.46.162.139 (talk) 03:45, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
my changes to superbowl 45
Um, I made 2 deletions. The first was to remove a post that someone made claiming that "Superbowl 45 wont be watched because everyone will be too busy watching the world cup" and the second was to remove a post that said the "Patriots" are the favorite for this years superbowl... the patriots wont even be competing in this years superbowl so they cant be a favorite. i was removing vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DurotarLord (talk • contribs) 16:41, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- Look at your edits right here I consider that vandalism. Baseball Watcher 17:10, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- whatever, next time ill just leave all the vandalism on the page and wont bother to fix it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DurotarLord (talk • contribs) 18:17, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
A user talk message
I assume you meant to not to start WikiWar with this user or something, but you added a welcome template to 84.13.17.244's user talk page right after you reverted his vandalism. --Perseus, Son of Zeus ✉ sign here 20:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

It appears this user was attempting to either contest the prod or delete the page (as under G7) . Either way it wouldn't really be vandalism. --nn123645 (talk) 05:25, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Remove speedy deletion tag
I just copy-edited the article Grete_Stern (it was not copyvio but it was close, and the bot triggered). It should be ok now. Anyway, please remove the speedy deletion tag that is not ok to remove it myself since I'm the creator of the article. Thanks --Neo139 (talk) 02:46, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Reviewer
Can I ask you why you accepted this revision, while it clearly changed a piece of information backed by several references? —Ruud 11:03, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Please be more careful...
When tagging pages for speedy deletion, as you did for Kevin Pomplun here. The page is obviously not in anyway a copyright violation of https://www.starchefs.com/news/rumbles_murmurs/html/2006/10.shtml, as that page is about chefs, while the article was about the President of a company providing a web service called SkyGrid. Could I suggest you read up on our copyright policy before you tag an article for speedy deletion as a copyvio again? Thanks, Acather96 (talk) 19:06, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of user talk page
In regard to this edit, I would not normally recommend speedily deleting the user talk page in question, because then the user might never get to see the notice you had placed on the page just two minutes before. Instead, I've blanked the advertising content from the user talk page and declined the speedy deletion. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:29, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Where do you get off buddy?

We should go for lunch sometime. I'll have my people call your people.
Hey!
Hey, why did you request a deletion of my page within a couple minutes of it being launched? It is about legit artists and they are on iTunes and have been reviewed by sites. Can you please explain to me why? And what I can do to fix it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stinasaunders (talk • contribs) 01:58, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- The article is a candidate of speed deletion because the artist/group's article doesn't exists. See here for information. Baseball Watcher 02:03, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Just to add on to what Baseball Watcher is saying, check out the notability guidelines for bands and artists and make sure the article is sourced. BurtAlert (talk) 02:09, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Trigger happy much?
You should at least wait until someone finishes editing before you change what they did. I'm in the middle of updating the section and reading through to verify the information I put in. That was rude. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjennmom (talk • contribs) 02:44, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
