'inappropriate redirection'
What was 'inappropriate' about my is it safe redirection? Musungu jim 20:19, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
What else would you be looking for if you typed 'is it safe'?
Bwahh? Raul Ashraf
Apparently you and I were both browsing the recent changes page, but I have to question your decision to put Rauf Ashraf in the quick delete pile. I added a cite and wiki template, and really I think that's all there needs to be, I mean the guy notes that this guy's company or whatever as achieved billion dollar assets, and I think that qualifies as a notable biography. Could you chat with me on the talk page a bit? Thanks,
Danielfolsom 03:11, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Ya but a quick delete doesn't give the author much time... Hmm, I don't know, I'm really hesitant to take out a bio with this first sentence,
- "He started at the largest asset management firm on Wall Street and worked for five years with two of the world’s largest hedge funds with peak assets of over one billion dollars."
Honestly I don't know much about the guy, but you should def. note on the talkpage what you want the author to do. Danielfolsom 03:17, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Ohhhh my bad, I didn't know the page was something different
before, apparetnly your a bit faster than I am at browsing the recent changes/
By the way...

"Notability," regarding Wiki page for Xfanz.com
Good morning! I copied this from the AFD entry for Xfanz.com:
- OK, I've done some reading about the notability guidelines for Wikipedia. I'd like to call your attention to the seventh prong:
^ Content that is distributed by independent online sites will almost certainly satisfy the first criterion. However, this criterion ensures that our coverage of such content will be complete regardless. For example, Ricky Gervais had a podcast distributed by The Guardian. Such distributions should be nontrivial. Although GeoCities and Newgrounds are exceedingly well known, hosting content on them is trivial.
Many Web sites use XFANZ RSS feeds for their news content. One prominent site that uses our content is Booble.com (Booble's Wikipedia entry), the adult search engine:
You'll see that we are the sole news provider for one of the most popular adult search engines on the Web.
I believe this should satisfy the requirement for notability.
Thanks!
Wikifascist
This term is quickly moving from nonsense to mainstream slang. When I first started hearing it, I had trouble finding a definition for it. It would be helpful for Wikipedia to carry a working definition of a word that has quickly entered our language and is being legitimized. When do new terms coined on the Internet (like "blog") move from being nonsense to commonly used slang? In Defense of the Artist 23:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- So how old does a word have to be before being defined as a neologism? ...and what criteria would back up the legitimacy of slang other than it's common usage? In Defense of the Artist 00:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)\
- Thanks, I'll hit my periodicals where Wikislang's been dropped to find more sources. In Defense of the Artist 00:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Talk:Main Page revert
Hi Mhking. I noticed that you reverted this edit to talk:Main Page, calling it vandalism. I don't think it qualifies as such. Could you explain why you view it as vandalism? Picaroon 01:39, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Removing my speedy deletion tag
Just wondering why you removed my speedy deletion tag from How to tell the difference between a chess geek and a computer geek and saw fit to place your own over it... please contact me back on my talk page. ScorpO 02:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Lyrics
OK. That edit MUST be good. Since ONE line from Love Profusion was added and criticised negatively, I added ONE Live To Tell line and added a source that criticises it positively. Editing a Madonna page is so hard. This I know. lol
However, Madonna's vocals on Live To Tell were considered her best by others at the time[1].
They deemed Live To Tell's lyrics poignant.[2] "A man call tell a thousand lies. I've learned my lesson well. Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned. 'Til then it will burn inside of me."[3]
Madonna also received good reviews from some reviewers for her Love Don't Live Here Anymore cover[4] which was described as "heartfelt vocal"[5].
skywaybridge.com
why are you refusing to allow a link to skywaybridge.com? it is a free site with a wealth of information about the bridge and suicides from it. i make zero money on it and see no reason why you refuse to allow an external link. please review the site.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.200.105.180 (talk) 13:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC).
Vandalism?
Hi - which page was inappropriate, that may be deemed as vandalism? I assure you that all of the pages that I have just edited were done with the best possible intentions. I apologise for any inconvenience caused.
sunshine skyway bridge external links
on your 'external links'section, the listing "The Sunshine Skyway Bridge" and it's redirect to http://www.bridgepix.com/ is someone's personal site. they collected pictures of bridges. the link below it, Sunshine Skyway Bridge page at Interstate275Florida.com and it's redirect to http://www.interstate275florida.com/ssb.htm, a personal site someone created about the driving over the bridge. with the same logic you use to remove my link to the skyway bridge, i expect you to remove those links as well. please explain to me why those have more validity then mine? perhaps you have issue with the site contents. is this the case? my site has zero personal relevance to me. i don't share recipes, i post no pictures of me on vacation, we don't blog. it's 100% about the skyway bridge and what happens on and around it. read the site. i feel you prejudice my site for some reason. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.200.105.180 (talk) 18:18, 8 January 2007 (UTC).
i think you are prejudiced. my site has many skyway facts and a warning to those not wishing to view what may be disturbing to them. i wish i had the time you spend policing wikipedia by swinging your big censorship club at every opportunity. you know you are wrong. good luck with that.
Hey, I created this article, and it's a work in progress. Any help you could offer would be great! --myselfalso 07:39, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the help. So I would have to find an article or something about it on the internet? I will try. If I can't, then I guess it isn't good enough for wikipedia, and I totally understand. Thanks. Fortyniners9999 06:16, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Nonsence??
mhking, just because you dont know what the article was about, didnt mean that others would to, therefore i think that you were innapropiate in you actions of deleting it. i am not impressed with the way you responded to my requests and the way i was spoken to, you were aggressive and i was polite. you have changed my view on wikipedia (in a bad way)

FFF (artist)
How can you speedy delete the article about FFF (artist) if the deletion is contested? I clearly says that when someone contests a speedy deletion, the article can only be deleted via the normal deletion procedure.
"An article that fails to even claim that the subject of the article is notable can be speedily deleted under criterion A7, however. A mere claim of notability, even if contested, may avoid deletion under A7 and require a full Article for Deletion process to determine if the subject of the article is notable." WP:BAND
Her the article was deleted a couple of hours after the speedy deletion was announced. Why would I even bother to write anything for the Wikipedia if this is the way it's governed. No one has even bothered to read the talk page and the arguments that are posed against deletion. This suck big time. You can count me out as a wikipedian if this is the way things are run around here.
psi36 17:52, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- The article had been deleted before, that's why I included an explanation in the talk page at the same time as I wrote the article. The first time the article was deleted I hadn't even had the chance to contest it (I'm not the original author). Is there any way to get this article on here again as I'm convinced it does meet the requirements. The only problem is that the articles I could reference to are in Dutch. And the record labels (and other artist on the roster of those labels) that prove the importance of FFF within the breakcore genre are only notable within that genre. So someone who isn't into breakcore probably won't know them. I don't think that should be a reason not to include this article, since then all articles about artists in less known genres should be deleted. How can I restore this article without it being deleted again the same day? psi36 18:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- BTW: sorry if my first reaction was a bit crude. I didn't check whether it was you who actually deleted the page. Apparently it was someone else. psi36 18:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Mary Easaw-John
I just placed the entry on Wikipedia when I got a notice of speedy deletion.. I haven't even perfected the article yet.. For ur info, Mary is the Chief Dietitian of the Malaysian National Heart Institute, which is Malaysia's referral centre for cardiology and it is a government institute. She has been responsible for bringing dietetics in Malaysia, which was once an unknown field, to the forefront.
The American Overseas Dieticians Association (AODA) appointed her as country representative for Malaysia in 2004. She is also the first Malaysian dietician to receive the International Dietetic Network STAR Award bestowed by the AODA for 2005/2006. The award also makes her the first Asian to be recognised for leadership skills and promoting nutrition and dietetics locally and internationally as a country representative.

¿WOOFY?
Why the heck did you delete my woofy page? of course it wasn't good yet, it had been up for 5 seconds, how the hell do you expect to judge an article in that amount of time. WIKIPEDIA BULLY. You are not cooler than everyone else because you have administrative powers. Get off your high horse and stop being such a douchbag. give people the time to add substance to their articles before you go deleting them. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO WOOFY IS, YET YOU CALL IT NONSENSE THE MINUTE YOU SEE IT. THE HEADS OF WIKIPEDIA WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS, AND YOU WILL BE RELEAVED OF ALL YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES. A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE HAS THE POWER TO DO THAT TO YOU, AHAHAHAHAHA. YOU MESSED WITH THE WRONG GUY, LOSER.
Oh c'mon
You're really gonna split hairs with me over which speedy template to use? It's going to be deleted either way. For the record, though, he DID ask for it to be deleted, on the very last line. So db-author is appropriate. Jhinman 19:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
banned?
It seems as you've been bullying alot of Pages. Who nows you might even get banned from being an admin. what makes these articles worthy of youre deletion anyway?

Pie
I edited pie and I want to know if this is okay.
Pie throwing
Cream filled or topped pies are favourite props for humour, particularly when aimed at the pompous. Throwing a pie in a person's face has been a staple of film comedy since the early days of the medium, and real life pranksters have taken to targeting politicians and celebrities with their pies, an act called pieing. Many clowns enjoy throwing pies at targets such as people's faces. Activists sometimes engage in the pieing of political and social targets as well. One such group is the Biotic Baking Brigade. "Pieing" can result in injury to the target and assault or more serious charges against the pie throwers [1]. In Des Moines, Iowa, in 1977, singer and anti-gay-rights activist Anita Bryant became one of the first persons to be "pied" as a political act.[citation needed] See List of people who have been pied.

License tagging for Image:Colorheads2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Colorheads2.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Please go through the discussion
Hello there, I have been warned by you that I will be blocked if I don't stop adding what you consider an unwanted page about TM Soundararajan. I kindly request you to go through the links I have given in the discussion page about him. If you still consider that the page is unwanted please explain to me why before blindly deleting the article. Thank you!
Vijay 22:03, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Ok then first, what exactly do you mean by "notable"?? Should it be known by each and every person in the world?? You say that you are from Gary, Indiana. I'm sure you do not know anything about happenings in Chennai. Even I don't know anything about Gary, so should I go deleting articles about it?
Second, more importantly, none of the articles are created on a single day. Please give some time to upload and update the article. I accept that it is not a good article at the moment but come on, if bad articles should be deleted the minute they're created, then how was Wikipedia built? I am in the process of requesting his current and previous students to add information about him and provide more "notable" info. Please give at least a couple of weeks time and even after that you find the article bad, you can delete it to your heart's content.
And finally, this is just for your information, the other 3 admins who deleted the article also did it within a minute of uploading, only that I didn't request them this much. Please excuse me if I sounded too harsh, which I didn't mean to.

The What'sBest! page has been created for the benefit of all those Students, Professors and Industry people who want to explore about What'sBest!. The product has been very helpful in my coursework at IIT and realized that many are unaware of its usage and help. Hence, an article on it has been created by me for everybody's benefit. It doesnot contain any self promotion of the product, while it does provide the useful information in a Nut shell and the URL from where a trail version of it can be downloaded. Should you have any further questions, please donot hesitate to post me before proceeding with any other options. --Srinnath 20:49, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
aversion bmx
why are you indicating that I am a Spammer.. I put a long time into writing the information for aversion and I will continue to add to it untill it has the whole story and details of it..

I am unhappy with that! I have done my best to provide every bit of information about aversion in an objective way. I have detailed each riders information and said what the company do. The only piece of advertising on this page is the link to the website. By all means delete the link - I want aversion's story to be on wikipedia so that the bmx community has access to it.

- I think it should remain because, it is linked to in the Wikia article. Also, it is the leading site of its kind, in the same way that Wikia has an article on here because it is the leading wiki of its kind. I don't see the problem - fair enough, it needs to be referenced, but I'll sort that out over the forthcoming hour or so - if you tell me what you think needs to be referenced. Alex Holowczak 14:49, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
- Alright, I'll see what I can do - I have to go for half an hour now, but when I get back I'll look for sources. Please don't delete the article - give me chance to put sources in. Alex Holowczak 15:16, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

You sited our page Netarus as spam. How is this spam if this is about when our company is formed, the products we offer, etc.
Self promotion? I'd agree if Netarus meant something else, but this is about our company. So if an outside source were to do a write up on us, this would be ok?
