Undeleting cabals?

So do any of the DRV'd "cabals", other than the one above, need undeleting? You seem to be one of the core members. The DRV result was that any admin may undelete if provided with rationale as to how the cabal helps the encyclopedia, or words to that effect (read the real result, don't take my word for it obviously). Considering that the decision was without prejudice to anyone immediately nominating the "cabal" individually at MfD (or even the undeleting admin sending it straight there), I would interpret the benefit to the encyclopedia standard pretty liberally.--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 21:37, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Note that most of those deleted weren't much more than exclusive little "clique-ish" feel-good lists of people. Unless they can be demonstrated to be more than that, I may nominate for MfD myself. (Consider the fate of Wikipedia:Esperanza.) Just a thought. - jc37 17:19, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

The page has been moved, and I'm in the process of fixing the "links". I've noticed that you included the link in some signatures for Barnstars, so I thought I'd let you know I was changing them. - jc37 17:13, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

WP:MAVS Newsletter

The Dallas Mavericks WikiProject Newsletter
Volume 1, Issue 3 • April 20, 2008 • About the Project
News by Shruti14 As of 11 April 2008, the Mavs have clinched a playoffs berth in the 2008 playoffs. The Mavs are only one of two teams to have won 50 games each season for the past eight consecutive seasons, the other being the San Antonio Spurs. The Mavs enter the 2008 playoffs as the seventh seed, playing against the New Orleans Hornets in the First Round. Jason Kidd scores his 100th career triple-double in the final regular-season game against the New Orleans Hornets on 16 April 2008. The Mavs lose the first game of the 2008 NBA Playoffs to the Hornets on 19 April 2008 with a final score of 104-92. The Hornets lead the series 1-0.	Features by Shruti14 Dallas Mavericks Article of the Week: Jason Terry was selected by the Atlanta Hawks with the tenth overall pick in the 1999 Draft. His excellent performance earned him a spot on the NBA All-Rookie Team, becoming only the second Hawk to do so. Within a year, he became one of the team's best players and top scorers. The Mavs showed interest in making him a part of their team, and he was traded to the Mavs in 2004, just prior to the start of the season. A solid shooter and three-point shooter, Terry has become an integral part of the Mavs lineup. Historically, he has had mixed performance in the playoffs.	Collaboration of the Month by Shruti14 The collaboration voting and nominating continues. More nominations and votes are needed before a Collaboration of the Month can be selected - as of now, we have absolutely none. Please put votes or suggestions here.

Newsletter Delivery Templates

I just made this template (for WP:MAVS) and this template (for WP:NBA) to make newsletter delivery easier - instructions are on the "Usage" section of the page. I haven't tested the NBA one, but I just used the Mavs one to deliver the Mavs newsletter and it seems to work fine. Tell me what you think. --Shruti14 ^{t c s} 18:23, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I withdrew my request. I noticed that there are many bots that deliver newsletters. But do you have any suggestions on a diff purpose of my bot?--RyRy5 (talk) 18:45, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I'll think about it.--RyRy5 (talk) 18:52, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

First, how does one define a personal attack. Second, how does a bot know a personal attack when it sees one? Gentlemen, I think you're thinking about this backwards: one finds a task that needs a bot, not a bot that needs a task. If there's no task for it, there's no need for the bot. - Philippe 19:39, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, but this is just brainstorming. I was asked if I had any suggestions, and I answered. Basketball110^{Go Mavs!}/_{Review me!} 19:43, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

RE: Wikifuture

Hey! First of all, let me say that I'm really sorry for going away all of a sudden; I'm just under a lot of pressure to keep my marks up and study a lot, due to AP exams coming up in a bit and so forth.

Now, your wikifuture; in a nutshell, I think you're an awesome guy (and Wikipedian) who's stuck around, learned the ways, and spoken your mind, even though you've had some conflicts (like the Cabals thing). Personally, I think honesty is a very valuable commodity here, where people are often pressured to make choices based on the will of others. So anyway, yeah, I guess you're ready for graduation; my aim with adoption is to mentor people in how to cooperate with the community and create a fun, friendly environment on Wikipedia. I'm not too concerned about how many policy shortcuts people can remember. :) And as for your Wikifuture; do whatever you feel you'll have fun doing. Oh, and also; your goal should be to improve Wikipedia, but never let that come before yourself.

So yeah, that's my little rambling essay of advice/praise. :) Cheers, Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP! :)} 00:58, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Congrats. I guess it's time for you to adopt.--RyRy5 (talk) 01:37, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I saw you add your name to the list.--RyRy5 (talk) 01:44, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Make it shorter please - 390 characters is absured. Using a subpage to get around the 255 character limit is not on. Daniel (talk) 06:32, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I've shortened it for you in the meantime. You really shouldn't use a subpage like that; it's just asking to be vandalised by a troll wanting to cause you grief. More safe just to follow the length policy and include it in Special:Preferences. Daniel (talk) 06:36, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

NBA Project

Hey there. As you probably noticed, I have been assessing and tagging articles and templates for the NBA project lately. During so, I came across game log templates in Category:National_Basketball_Association_game_log_templates and I noticed a significant number of those are incomplete or don't even log a single game (e.g. GSW Season 06-07). Since completing these templates takes a lot of work, I decided to come and ask you for some help. I'm sure all game-logs can be completed by the start of the 08-09 season, as the NBA Project has 102 members.

Oh, and, if you don't mind, I have been keeping the Newsletter updated everyday with playoff news and other league events. Cheers. _{Trance addict - Tiesto - Above and Beyond} 03:51, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Which do you rather prefer as a source: NBA.com or ESPN.com? It seems like for gamelogs, ESPN is better. Cheers. _{Trance addict - Tiesto - Above and Beyond} 04:40, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Looking over your talk page...

....I see that you really care way too much what other Wikipedians think about you.--InaMaka (talk) 01:13, 24 April 2008 (UTC) ...I see that you might need to learn policies better. Would you be interested in adoption? Basketball110 00:41, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Dear Basketball110: I'm sure that you mean well, but I don't need to learn the policies. You are making huge assumptions that the comments on my user talk page are based on anything close to reality. Most of the negative comments on my talk page are based upon the incorrect assumptions and prejudices of the individuals who made them. Also, unlike you I do not feel the need to have other Wikipedians like me. I don't know them personally. And I never, ever will. I will never, ever attend one of those Wikipedia Fests or whatever they are called because I do have a life outside of Wikipedia. Most of the comments above (on my talk page) come from people that really do care way, way, way too much about Wikipedia and as such they do not have a life. I have come to learn that there are just certain Wikipedians that will never, ever like me. And I don't care. They will find some policy somewhere and they claim--regardless of the facts staring them in the face--that I broke that policy and they will write up a nasty comment on my talk page for people like you to see and then you comment on it. Eventually, there will be enough Wikipedians--with similar (political) viewpoints to them and they will form a gang and they will start a Request for Comment page on me. Now, this RFC page is the Star Chamber of all Wikipedian Star Chambers. This gives everyone, no matter if they have reviewed my work or not, the ability to slam me until they finally just get tired. When and if I ever start editing again they will slam me until they get tired again and it will be based upon my work or the merits of any particular edit, but it will be based upon the fact that I had the temerity to point out that Wikipedia articles MUST be consistent across all categories and topics. Case in point: a few Wikipedians have taken upon themselves to remove MOST of the information in the Sidney Blumenthal bio about his drunk driving conviction. They have based that upon their personal belief that mentioning drunk driving convictions is a violation of BLP. But of course mentioning drunk driving convictions is NOT a violation of BLP. There is no set rule against it in the Wikipedian rules. But more importantly there are TONS of articles that mention drunk driving convictions. Just take a quick look at Mel Gibson's article, specifically the section called "Alcohol Abuse". Also, take a look at the article on Mel Gibson's drunk driving conviction = Mel Gibson DUI incident. The wonderful liberals that attack me on my talk page have even placed a picture of Mel's mugshot on the Wikipedia page. The article dedicated to Gibson's drunk driving convictions is very, very long and detailed. Now, when I mentioned these FACTS to the particular Wikipedians that kept removing the Blumenthal drunk driving conviction I was told that what happens on the Mel Gibson articles has NOTHING to do with the Blumenthal article. Now, I tell you these facts because you are coming to my talk page and reading just a few of the incorrect and fales comments on my page and you are jumping to conclusions about me. I know the rules. I probably know the rules better than you do. But I don't know. But I do know that I don't want you to ADOPT me. I just want you to understand that, yes, Wikipedia does not have qualifications or requirements to edit. But I can handle myself just fine. Also, I have a life, where I have adopted two REAL children and I have a wonderful life. When the Wikipedian, liberal thought police finally come for me with their RFC then I will quietly fade away from Wikipedia again. That's just the way that it works. If you really want to assist Wikipedia and make Wikipedia a better encyclopedia then you should use your time to make Wikipedia consistent across the board. Liberals such as Blumenthal should get the same treatment in Wikipedia as the conservatives such as Gibson. You would then be making a real contribution to the development of Wikipedia.--InaMaka (talk) 01:11, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Page move

Do you mind if I move No More Walks in the Wood to No More Walks in the Wood (album)?--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 02:37, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I was thinking of something else. Also, do you like my new signature? I added "wikify" so that others and I will be encouraged to edit articles. Also again, do you think I wikified Wasenbourg?--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 02:45, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for the wait, I was notifying the creator of Leandson Dias da Silva that the article fails WP:POV greatly. Your sig, good, but I know who you "stole" it from. And I thought all albums had that, but your article wasn't one.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 02:57, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

That's useful. I'll add it to my article subpage. Well, I'll be on RC patrol. Cheers.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 03:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes I did. I just could never find the link. Thanks.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 03:19, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Page move of List of University of Oregon people

I have reverted your undiscussed move of this page. Please see Category:Lists of people by university in the United States, which shows that this is the standard naming convention for such pages. Please discuss potentially controversial page moves on the talk page of an article first next time. Additionally, the title to your new page was incorrect, as the list includes more than just alumni.

Re: WP:GM May Newsletter is done!

Hi, and thanks for the contact. The newsletter looks great! I have no issues or recommendations! I'd be inclined to ask at least one other member of the project to see what they say. Other than that, I think you're good to go for May 1! Thanks! --Jza84 |  Talk  09:53, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
