An editor has asked for a deletion review of Super E. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. SustainableCommunities 11:49, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I wanted to know why you deleted our page Super E. Super E is an important new building method, which is discussed on university architecture courses, and is increasingly used to provide healthy, energy efficient homes. The page folows the format of pages that have not been deleted, such as Bedzed. If we are not complying with the guidelines, it is unintentional, and we would appreciate some adivce on how to alter the article so that it remains on wikipedia.
Thanks
Hi , I want to know why you deleted our page : http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=K3_Media
It been there for long and we are a serious business. Can you help me to re-enter it respecting the guidelines ? We are a legitimate company and not respecting the guideline less the other in this page : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K3 Regards,
Why do you delete everything? If you find wikipedia that bad, leave it!!!
Thanks for the explanation on Please Mr Thau - will work on it.
If you'd be so kind as to point out exactly what I'm doing wrong or give me a valid reason as to why my article on Please Mr Thau is being deleted then I'll be happy to make the required changes.
What is the difference between what I am doing and this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_Sportiva. I don't get it and am quite willing to conform if I can determine what I am doing wrong. henrid33

Parkland Morning News
editFirst, we responded on the talk page with credible links and included the [hang on] tag in the article. Moreover, it is difficult to establish the entire article in the hour it was there before being deleted. Is there anyway to restore it so I can continue from where I left?

Parkland Morning News
editMr. Nawlinwiki:
May I remind you that the Wikipedia definition of notability includes the phrase that nobility "is not measured by Wikipedia editors' own subjective judgments" but rather that it is the subject of "multiple, non-trivial published works from sources that are reliable and independent of the subject itself." First, Parkland Morning News has been the subject of multiple published works including but not limited to the E-School News Magazine, the Trumpet, Parkland Press, The CACLV Newsletter, and The Morning Call [1] [2] [3] [4]. Most of these links were added to the article, though it is difficult to prove its notability when you give the article a full thirty minutes to create before brashly deleting it.
Additionally, Parkland Morning News has been the subject of stories on such news stations as the Fox News channel, NBC 10 Philadelphia, Service Electric, PBS, and WFMZ 69. Moreover, Parkland Morning News airs a broadcast every day on channel 50 of the local cable station.
Before continuing your reckless genocidal deletion rampage reminiscent of the late Nazi party, perhaps you should recall the core values that are forever instilled deep within the very soul of the great Wikipedia. It is myopic, vacuous, and impetuous people like you that will one day destroy Wikipedia beyond reparation. You and your incompetence are dragging the Greatest Encyclopedia of all time down this slippery slope into that fiery chasm of world ignorance.
-An appalled colleague
Dj Soup
editThanks I'll make sure to repost the article with the notable links first this time...
Dj Soup
editJust curious as to if you even read the article or discussion comments? There was a hangon tag... This article wasn't spam and there was verifiable links added to prove notoriety and legitimacy. It appears by reading the majority of the comments below that admins are using their "power" to speedy delete without actually taking a minute to review the article or its relevance.
Please enlighten me on what further steps I need to take to validate myself and my article.
When I see stuff like mister g on wikipedia, which is cleary a violation of self promotion as his "verification" is his website and myspace it makes me feel that some of these decisions may be racially motivated. Please prove me wrong.
Matthew "You have to be mainstream to get onto here" Bond
editAs a final point hes not a 'high school kid', he isn't in high school and such a generalisation is a matter of your own personal opinion, such generalisations can hardly be taken seriously. I guess I will have to re-submit this article when he has recieved mainstream attention. Thank you for your time.
I can understand the reason you have such rules regarding sources, and believe me I appreciate them but it seems that Wikipedia is a bit behind the times in recognising that perticular cultures often will use different sources to represent things, even though they may be as truthful as recognised sources. With the exception of transforming local media outlets into recogniseable 'Wiki'sources I am struggling to see how I can inform the general public on more infomation on this person. I also agree that some of the sections may be less acceptable than others and I can only apologise for that. If you have any ideas/suggestions on how I can present an article which as mentioned previously contains facts which cannot be verified, then I would be very happy to hear them. It seems a contradiction to yourself however where you mention mainstream attention, the article clearly states his popularity as an underground cult hero of his local peer community.
So basically what your saying is that unless you can locate the source on the internet Wikipedia does not recognise it as a source.
That is not a problem however none of the articles are available on the internet for your own personal verificaton. Prehaps if there was a discussion I would be able to get members on here to vouch for the validity of the sources.
Regarding the article about Matthew Bond, I appreciate he is not well known to you personally but in the local area he is far more famous then you will ever be. Ild like request this article be available to edit in its original form, prehaps you would like some changes to make it more successfull to your specific viewing or are you decisions really representing the public of wikipedia

editHello. I have no idea what I'm doing. I was trying to create a page about my radio station which is listed on this page - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_stations. Every other station there has added a page with information about their station and I was trying to do the same. Before I could even finish you deleted my entry. I have no idea what I did wrong as this is the first time I have attempted to create an article. Could you please tell me what I need to do to create this article and not have it deleted? --Dfwlinuxguy 23:00, 13 January 2007 (UTC)dfwlinuxguy
the little buzzers page
editI don't understand why it has been deleted I've put what company it's made by and I personally think it is pretty reliable. Was it because at the front page there was two links and you didn't know which one it is? (the second one channel 5) please email me about it or if you hav an account on ffstv then use their Private Message system to contact me kindly, 1oooop
so you are saying that ffstv deserves one page? (instead just one on one of their shows) 1oooop ok
No Chances?
editI was in the process of making a Wikipedia entry for a website that is fairly popular among its niche community. I really commend you on your promptness in dealing with vandalism and such, but I am still beginning the Wikipedia editing process and still need to get to know the basic shortcuts and symbols. As such, and considering I am trying to get more and more information, help from members of the site, and have a limited time frame in which to work and add the information, I'm basically saying you barely gave me a chance to write the article before getting it labeled either as a stub or for speedy deletion. I support anti-vandalism, but I believe you should give a little more of a time frame, since vandals get over 10 warnings before they are blocked, usually in the span of about a few days, whereas an article that is still be added to and researched gets a couple of minutes tops 'til it is deleted. I guess that I am not alone, judging from the titles in your contents for talk, so you should probably start considering slowing down a bit with the deletion; I know it's called "speedy" deletion, but it was labeled for not even five minutes after I entered it.

editConcerning the Bob Judd article.
I did a search for information on Bob Judd, but found nothing at all, so decided to start an article with the very basic of info in it.
I am sure I heard of someone starting an article with hardly any information in it and other wiki users added more information as time went on.

your deletion of "Airdates of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip"
editShouldn't you guys read the talk page before deleting an article when someone adds a {{hangon}} to a speedy delete? This article had a merge request and I was following merge guidelines by allowing some time to go by so anyone could comment before I redirected the airdates article to the episodes article and also fixed the dozens of links to this article from other articles. By charging in and deleting the article you just created a bunch of broken links. Admittedly this is also the fault of the guy who added the speedy delete flag just a couple days after I stated my intentions to resolve the merge on the talk page, but I thought people with delete privileges would be more careful. I'm just going to fix the broken links you made now. As for the redirect, I realized that is probably not important since a google search found no links to the article. :) I just thought it made more sense to redirect instead of delete since dozens of other articles linked to it (although most of those just have the link because of the template so I'll be fixing most of those with one edit, whee! :) --Danny Rathjens 09:05, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

magging
editI created with a good reason. maybe you should have read my reason before you deleted it. This was not a thing made up in school on a day. Just because you don't live in Orange County and don't know that this is happening and spreading does not mean it isn't real, or it is fake. please read the talk page or leave a comment on the talk page before randomly deleting an article.
Sppedy Deletion
editI did put a hang on at the top of my article 'everyclick' and at time of deletion I was actually editing the page to bring it up to standard, and therefore feel I wasnt given enough time to sort out the article, I needed more than a couple of minutes.
^^^
editThanks, I will repost at some point. I am mainly using information from their site and press-pack, which I admit needs to be edited, especially with all the references to 'you' and to the site-link, and my intent is to put across information about Everyclick and I realise this can be very close to advertising. Is there a way to show that a page is underconstruction so that it doesnt get tagged as spam, or is there a preview button I have missed?
The Legend of the Luscious Limited Edition Lilac Ice-Cream
editLess than 1 minute after completing this article I found that it had been deleted for "Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content." I do not understand this as the article was about a film recorded, edited and released on DVD and in cinema. Many other films are listed on Wikipeida and are just as important as this one. I am very surprised and insulted that you underestimate this film and let me add that they actors are not from any collective "company", "group" and are not "unremarkable people" as one of the actors -Gavin Mitchell- has an article about him on Wikipedia! Do you not check!

Wolfgang Somary
editI 100% accept your ruling to decline speedy delete of the Wolfgang Somary page, but am curious as it seems to me like a clear case of defamatory content unsupported by adequate source material. Would you care to comment further? DaveApter 20:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- The article has lots of sources and asserts the subject's notability, which means it is not a good candidate for speedy deletion. If there is content not supported by the sources, just edit it out rather than flagging the entire page for deletion. Thanks, NawlinWiki 20:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarification. The reason I thought the article was a candidate for speedy deletion is that it would be almost devoid of content without the references to the alleged tax fraud in connection with Werner Erhard. I am gloomy about the prospects of achieving a resolution by removing the offending content because attempts to do so elsewhere with material posted bySmeelgova are simply reverted more-or-less immediately by him at a rate that others cannot keep up with. Thanks anyway. DaveApter 13:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Re:Pony Mafia
editIt doesn't be to be seriously relevent, as lonng as it is above average and includes an signifigant animal, or more than one average person (as long as it is not an advertisment). Many things on wikipedia aren't, but my things usually are. People always ask me about it, so I had started to refer them there. So I come home, and it gets deleted again! I've written that 7 times, and only this time told why not to delete it. I'm sick of it. Why don't people delete Alf's Imperial Army? Why is that important? Why are the mousers of the Prime Minister of Britian's residence important? Why is the local band which I am very close to, In the Fur, who have several hunderd fans on both sides of the Atlantic (Mostly in England an America, esp. Philadelphia and Camden Co.), not important? I'm sorry if all my anger is going out on you, but seriously, I have had 5 of my articles deleted without notifcation! Tell me, please, why the author does not get a fighting chance, and tell of their signifigance?

Phil of the Future episodes
editI noticed you created a category for these. On one level this is very helpful. The difficulty is that all of these articles are stubs, and per WP:EPISODE should be merged and redirected to a season or list page. Do you agree? It seems tough to expand these with the other areas (cultural impact, critical reviews, public controversy or whatever) that this guideline suggests for episode specific pages. Phil of the Future is not Star Trek. Not rushing things - looking for consensus.Obina 21:40, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Great. Heh heh if you are working categories then you are probably cleaning up all my shoddy work, since that is something I'm doing now too. It is enjoyable since it takes me to all sorts of interesting puzzles as I try to categorise things I don't know too much about. Sadly I come across a lot of junk that needs to go to prod or AFD....Obina 21:52, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
The time bombed skyscraper article
editHello, I have noticed that you were the one who removed the speedy deletion tags, and the wikify article tags off of the TIme Bombed Skyscraper article. I however, re-added the wikify tag onto the article because this article does nothing but show a review of the movie. For articles like that, it really belongs on IMDB not Wikipedia. There's no information on the background, direction, cast or even the company that produced the film. Perhaps you may need to look at the article again, and maybe compare it to other aritcles on movies to get what I am talking about. If you disagree feel free to drop me a line at my talk page.

Housekeeping request
editHi Nawlin, it looks like you up editing at the moment...may I ask a favor and have you speedy Rutan Voyager for housekeeping purposes? It is a redirect to Scaled Composites Voyager, and reliable refs show that Scaled didn't build Voyager, so renaming it Rutan Voyager (since it was a product of the Rutan Aircraft Factory) puts its name in line with other similar articles, and eliminates some inaccurate information. Proposal on the talkp page was unopposed. Thanks! Akradecki 02:37, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Notability of "The Guggenheim Grotto"
editHola, NawlinWiki! You recently axed the page I created for the band The Guggenheim Grotto due to lack of established notability in the article. I have recreated the page with an attempt to establish such notability: more information about the band, links to various articles and high-profile appearances (NPR, KCRW, etc.), and information about an Independent Music Award recently won by the band. I hope that this helps. If there are remaining questions, I would appreciate some notification on my talk page so the situation can be remedied, rather than immediate deletion of the article, because it's a pain to "fix" the article once the history is gone. Thx! - Ctb 22:46, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Why the page Benjamin M. Emanuel should be speedily deleted.
editHi, I understand that you think the normal process of deletion is acceptable in this case but I think you have missed some of the postings I placed in the talk page:
To clarify any uncertainty about whether this is an attack page look at the blogs cited as the main sources.
http://www.cloakanddagger.de/media/S_284_S/Overthrow%20series/Rahm%20Emanuel.htm
- “[Rahm] Emanuel is no stranger to political assassination. His father was reputedly part of the Israeli assassin team that murdered Sweden's Count Bernadotte, part of a U.N. team in Palestine in 1948.”--Wowaconia 22:47, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
The other source mentioned http://www.iamthewitness.com/Bollyn-Emanuel.html makes similar claims:
- "American congressman Rahm Emanuel, is the son of a terrorist.… Rep. Rahm Emanuel, the Democrat congressman for the 5th District of Illinois in Chicago is the son of an Israeli terrorist. Rahm's father, Benjamin, was a member of the Irgun, the Zionist terrorist organization that coined a new word as they blew up hotels, train stations, and other buildings in Palestine in the 1930s and 40s. …Irgun, the army of his father, is short for Irgun Zvai Leumi, which supposedly means something like "National Military Organization" in Hebrew. As a matter of fact, the Irgun was simply a terrorist Zionist group that operated in Palestine from 1931 to 1948. They killed innocent Palestinians and British soldiers and blew up buildings."
- This source also asserts that the events of 9/11 where caused by this organization they claim Emanuel was part of saying, “The Irgun even has a website with pictures of the buildings they blew up before they demolished the World Trade Center with Thermite and high explosives”
It should be obvious that these unsubstantiated claims are not up to wikistandards and must be deleted as per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Biographies_of_living_persons .
I also refer you to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#General_criteria which lists criteria for pages that merit Speedy Deletion.
- (emphasis added) “10) Attack pages. Pages that serve no purpose but to disparage their subject or some other entity (e.g., "John Q. Doe is an imbecile"). This includes a biography of a living person that is negative in tone and unsourced, where there is no NPOV version in the history to revert to.”
In addition I refer you to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:BLP#Reliable_sources (Emphasis added) “Any assertion in a biography of a living person that might be defamatory if untrue must be sourced. Without reliable third-party sources, a biography will violate No original research and Verifiability, and could lead to libel claims. Information available solely on partisan websites or in obscure newspapers should be handled with caution, and, if derogatory, should not be used at all.”--Wowaconia 00:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I notice you continue to revert the article to avoid the call of speedy deletion. And that your doing this without explaining why you believe this article is not an attack page. I have cited several wiki-standards explaining my position and invite you to comment on whether they are mistaken. Currently no one has bothered to explain why they think blogs claiming this man is a murdering terrorist are somehow reliable sources, until I am convinced of that I will continue to follow wiki-policy that states such libel must be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. Thanks for your time.--Wowaconia 01:00, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Are you really suggesting that slanderous libel should remain posted for five days?
editHi on the topic of Benjamin M. Emanuel you posted on my talk-page “I haven't speedily deleted the article and neither has any other administrator. So what's the point? Wait the five days, and if the article is then deleted, you'll have better precedent against reposting the article (consensus rather than one person's decision).”
- In response I would say that the point is that Wikipedia has standards against publishing slander and certainly people can "ignore all rules" as per wiki-policy, but the Federal Legal system that would judge this case in a civil court is not so forgiving. Please explain why you think that citing unreliable blogs to declare that a man assassinated a political figure deserve to remain posted for five days?
- PS the other person who I was told was an Admin who disputed that this should be speedily deleted can be found in the history log of the article;
- 10:33, 7 January 2007 Mel Etitis
- 10:29, 7 January 2007 Mel Etitis
- A fact he didn’t mention in AfD discussions where he takes umbrage at the fact that someone’s contesting his article and accuses me by name (with links to my logs, contributions, etc. ) of having “some sort of problem with the articles on members of this family, which seem to involve protecting a politician against what he sees as negative facts. he shouldn't be allowed to get his way on this.”
- So I’m not impressed by the supposed neutrality of Admins. With that in mind I repost the call for Speedy Deletion with the anticipation that someone knowledgeable on wiki-standards will bother to review my arguments and prevent Wikipedia from being sued for libel. As of yet even you haven't bothered to explain why it isn’t slander to say that this man was a murdering terrorist.--Wowaconia 01:31, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I also note that when you deleted my initial call for this to be Speedily Deleted the title you placed on your edit of 18:44, 10 January 2007 stated "rm tag, doesn't seem to be an attack page, has sources; take to afd if you want". Please explain why you think an article calling someone a murdering terrorist assassin without any reliable sources is not an attack page.--Wowaconia 08:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Update
editWhen I tried to cut out the slanderous material it was reverted back in by Admin. User:Mel Etitis, someone else has now cut out those blog claims again. If the slanderous material is dropped as has been done as per the history page
- 06:21, 11 January 2007 Chick Bowen (stubbify per WP:BLP, used sources that were not reliable)
Then I do not object to using regular AfD instead of speedy delete, if the slanderous material is reverted back in then I will follow wiki-guidelines and call for its Speedy Deletion.--Wowaconia 07:08, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

editI do not understand your reasons for deleting my entry: "...because its content is clearly written to promote a company, product, or service. ... Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising service. Thank you. Please don't use Wikipedia to solicit donations."
Although the donations were mentioned, they certainly were not to benefit a company, product, or service unless you define "service" as "charitable work." Any reason you didn't tag this for a rewrite rather than a delete? I would have been happy to eliminate the donation reference blurb and leave the content. Wouldn't that have solved the problem??

Speedy deletion of Turner, surname - thanks!
editI'd just like to say thanks for deleting that - that really was SPEEDY deletion, all of five minutes from being tagged... just to let you know, you (or another admin) might need to watch London2012 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) - he/she (probably he tbh) is a student at the same school as me, and the page you deleted was one of a string of vandalism edits attacking another student at the school (surname Turner, would you believe). I first spotted him vandalising the school's own (legit, not vanity, it's a fairly unique school) article. Very likely to be troublesome, and the banmobile will be visiting him soon I hope. I may run some RL enquiries at school - the person is most probably in most of my sets, and I've a few good ideas who it is. Just to let you know - they could be a lot of trouble in future. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 20:41, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Question for an Administrator
editHey, NawlinWiki, I'm new to Wikipedia editing (though I use the site endlessly), so let me introduce myself.
I co-edit A Lush In Rio, an online literary journal (http://alushinrio.com/), and we've had some success and have a real readership. I know we're not as "notable" as, say, Tin House, but that hardly means we're not notable. That fallacy in thinking strikes me as odd. What number of readers must a publication prove it has before it is "notable" in a Wiki-worthy sense?
I'm not trying to spam Wikipedia or promote myself, but people do use Wikipedia to look up real information on real things they like (I know I do), and we're a real journal; we're in the process of incorporating as a nonprofit right now, for example.
What do I have to do to prove "notability?" Please advise.
Again, not trying to be a jerk, just new to this whole editing thing and trying to get started.
Thanks,
Sir Lysander, also originally from Nawlins.
Notability and verifiability
editSo what sources, and how many of them, need to verify a journal before its existence/notability is proved? Do lots of blogs equal one NYTimes article? I'm not sure I understand the criteria that Wikipedia looks for during the verification process, since, especially in the internet age, the "media" as this monumental, objective, validating "other" seems like a weird concept. Again, just curious. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sir Lysander (talk • contribs) 19:12, 18 January 2007 (UTC).
Thanks for notes on verifiability
editMuch clearer reading the three main tenets of the namespace. And thanks for moving the page for now. Again, I'm new to editing (though I do other web work and get the general idea), so please forgive any etiquette faux-pas.
Obviously, it would be great if my organization were such that I didn't have to work on a wikipedia entry myself, but I don't think the fans are going to go quite that far yet...
I'm sure you have lots of crap to delete, so sorry to bother. Rock on.

Speedy deletion of Smoothbeats
editI am writing to inquire about the recent deletion of the article I started on Smoothbeats. Although the article focused on a specific web site, I feel it definitely met the notability criteria set forth in WP:WEB. It fits into the [Category:Internet_radio] catagory in the exact same way that 150+ other articles on specific online radio stations linked from this category page.
Smoothbeats is also the developer of open source broadcasting software used by many internet radio stations, utilizing such technologies as Shoutcast, Mp3, Icecast, LAME, and is partnered with other stations with existing articles, such as Bassdrive and Digitally_Imported. These technical discussions we to be a part of this article as well.
Unfortunately, this article was tagged for speedy deletion less than an hour after a placeholder page was setup, before any significant content could be added. Is there an appeal process to have this page undeleted, so that individuals could help us build this and other articles on these subjects? Thank you.

From the quick glimpse I got of the history before you deleted it, it read something about how the user moved their talk page to Beyond Vapor, which was in turn deleted as an A7. As Wikipedia generally preserves user talk histories - the last ANI discussion reached this concensus, at least - could you please check the deleted history of Beyond Vapor to see if anyone else other than Rudyevanescence, the "owner", posted, on it, and if so, restore it and move it back to User talk:Rudyevanescence please?

You recently deleted the article Celestiial as non notable. I obviously cannot view the page, as it was deleted, but please review my comment on the talk page. I linked to numerous verfiable, third party, reliable articles about the band, and I would like to know why you think the band is still non-notable after that. Can I just say that I am unbiased on the matter- I am not the creator of the article, and I had never even heard of the band until I came across the article while I was on new page patrol. Thanks.

If on the other hand, Wikipedia states that by notable implies a worldwide fame, then you are right in deleting the article :)

Speedy Deletion?
editCan you please explain to me what was wrong with my article on Jordan Le Poidevin. After I was notified that the notibility wasn't asserted, I added to the article that he was a promising college cricketer. Virtually every professional cricketer started off as a college cricketer and he may become a professional player. Scores of college matches are reported in a newspaper, with individual player scores. Why can't he be included on wikipedia? I have found various other pages on college cricketers, which haven't been deleted, so can you please justify why this was deleted. Thanks for your time.Tkma 13:54, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I don't understand your point, there are many articles of college cricketers on wikipedia. Just because someone isnt paid for what they do doesnt mean they aren't notable. Mother Teresa wasn't paid for helping people. College cricket is written about in the newspaper. There aren't only scores but there are articles about particular players and interviews and what went on the field. Please readd my article because it had been completely unfairly dismissed with no justification.
A*star actress 19:28, 23 January 2007 (UTC) I don't really like the fact that you and/or any other Wikipedia editor removed my page 'Completely Useless, Yet Interesting, Facts.' My reasons for creating it in the first place are listed below. I don't think that this page should be deleted because there are some people that like this kind of thing. Also, when I created it, I was thinking of the kids. In school, the kids of America are hazed, and a great many of them suffer from boredom all day. This page provides an environment that anyone can enter and wind down, maybe have a few laughs. Actually, if you think about it, this page contains life science. It may not be coherent, but there are complete, uncomplicated sentences that everyone can understand, no one needs to really think about, and, best of all, the knowledge on this page isn't expected to be crammed into a person's head. It may not matter to most people, but if only one person wants to read it, I think it should stay. Kids have useful knowledge shoved down their throats all day, and I think it's high time that someone doesn't try shoving knowledge down innocent childrens' throats. The facts that can actually be used for something usually get crammed into the heads of America's youth. But there is a time where students aren't in school and no one tries to force facts on them. This page is just here to help kids unwind after a rough day of learning. No one expects any one to remember any of these facts. I think kids would like to know that there are facts in the would that they're not going to be asked about, or tested on, which I think would make kids able to relax more often and more deeply. Not all information can be useful. Am I right? I think I am. Just keep this in mind when you're deciding whether or not to delete this page. It may not be informative, but it's specifically designed for the entertainment of youth. Don't take the privilege to learn something other than useful things away from kids.A*star actress 19:28, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

- Too fast! Thanks! Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
You are on fire!
editThanks very much for clearing those articles I tagged! You deserve the highest praise for such speedy work! -- Sasuke Sarutobi 21:59, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

editPlease see discussions at User talk:Adavidw and User talk:Ghmyrtle. As the original author I accept the article needs some rewriting to demonstrate notability, which I will undertake - hopefully then the revised article can be reinstated. In my view the notability criteria are met. Ghmyrtle 22:23, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Deleting pages from user namespace
editPlease don't delete pages from the user namespace without checking with the user. I'm sure we can agree it sets a dangerous precendent. I am referring to the page entitled User:DetCoot, which I created myself. If you wish to reply you may do so here, as I will be watching this page. -- User talk:DetCoot 22:49, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Image question
editAs someone who appears to know what they are doing, image and copyright wise, can you take a look at something for me? A user has uploaded this photo [10] with some copyright tags I havent seen before and I am not sure how to interpret this. Is the line of reasoning in the tag correct and valid, and should this be treated as a fair use image, or a free image? Appreciate your input. Caper13 04:53, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
DDD and KDD
editI am responding to your deletion of my two articles. Both articles are about characters in my own comic serires, The Damned Still Want Their Shades. I am confused as to why my pages would be deleted, as there was no plagiarism or copyright infringment, as I am the creator of the series. I see that they are both labeled as "non-notable comic book characters" but I must say I do not understand why comics such as 8-Bit Theater are allowed to remain, which rips images off of the Final Fantasy series, but my own creation is not allowed. If it is because 8-Bit is online, and mine is not, I must inform you that I am currently working on a webpage that I can host the comics on. This would destroy the differences between my comic, and 8-Bit Theater. I am fairly new to Wikipedia, and I am still learning the ropes, so I am unaware if there is anyway I have my articles reposted now that they have been removed without having to retype them. Any help would be great.
Thank you for your time

L&O episode
editwhy revert? this all version is a copyvio. not a GFDL texts.--Xylit 13:30, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
The entire text of the article was a copyvio--just from different sites, and I have retagged. I only noted one because {{db-copyvio}} only allows one url parameter, but the remaining text, after your edits, is straight from the plot summary at imdb. Sorry for the extra work you did fixing and editing out stuff from the first site I listed in the tag. In the future I will note all other sites in the edit summary to avoid just this result.--Fuhghettaboutit 23:35, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Deletion of Chubby robot
editWhen speedy deleting a page, make sure that you've also deleted the talk page, if one exists. Thanks! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 15:31, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Law and Order Episodes and copyright violation
editI noticed you have edited some of the Law and Order pages I've made to correct possible copryright violations. I know you didn't tag them but I'm checking with both you and Xylit to try and figure out what the violation was. I'm relatively new to Wikipedia, so I've accepted that I might have done something unintentionally. From what I can tell, the issues have been taking the episode descriptions from other websites. I've know I copied the text directly over, but cited the reference. If that's not ok, then fine, but I would like to know. Thanks. Benjo 17:24, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Real Samba
editWhy was the Real Samba article deleted, who actually decides what it notable or not? They were a hugely notable team in the Oxfordshire county in the UK. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kizybit (talk • contribs) 17:05, 28 January 2007 (UTC).
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Talk:Long Island Electric Railway. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. NE2 18:40, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Arkona
editHello. This is a courtesy notice to let you know that I have restored Arkona (Russian band) which you deleted earlier today under provision A7 of WP:SPEEDY. My comments regarding this matter are available here. If you still believe the article should be deleted as the subject fails the notability guidelines, please proceed with the AfD process. Thank you.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:18, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
You deleted this article on January 7th as non-notable: [14]. However, I've just gotten a WP:AFC request, and my research seems to indicate otherwise: [15] (though granted, it did put in the words "their lack of fame is due to...", which was dumb). Would you be willing to undelete the article, and, at least, send it to AFD (and even delete the offending sentence)? I would appreciate it; thanks. Part Deux 23:07, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the deletion!
editThanks for deleting my botched archive of my talk page. I have no idea how I ended up archiving it as a user page instead of user talk. (1000+ edits and I still stumble about like a newbie...when does it ever wear off? :)) Panchitavilletalk 06:32, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
You made a mistake there. It's Talk:ROOT/index.php you should be protecting instead. These spambots are all IPs so all pages they create are in the talk namespaces. ;) Flyingtoaster1337 15:19, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
I find them with Special:Recentchanges - select only the Talk namespace , and hide logged in users. But there are so many entries to look through that I choose to focus only on the new pages. Flyingtoaster1337 15:30, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Did you see my comment? ~ trialsanderrors 18:51, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- I saw, but I disagree -- given that the last article to be AFD'd was protected, I think it is the burden of the author to go to Wikipedia:Deletion review before reposting. NawlinWiki 18:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well, technically yes. But what we'll get instead is more rounds of G4's, under Allen J. Greenfield, S. Allen Greenfield, etc. Plus chances are pretty good that this will be sent back to AfD anyway. ~ trialsanderrors 18:58, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Instant Tax Service
editHow much leeway does one get on a user-page? The user who created the Instant Tax Service page you just speedied as an ad has a clone of it as user-page...is it too ad-like/WP-is-not-your-personal-website? DMacks 20:12, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
TINKLECOMM Wireless
editWhy did you delete the article I created "TINKLECOMM Wireless" that was a real Wireless company from 2004 to 2007. People need to know that. I worked hard on that article and I was going to add more things to it. From User Muriness
When you make a claim than an article deserves deletion, and should be speedy you might want to explain why.--E tac 22:00, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
"Delete, fails WP:BAND, arguably speediable but probably better to settle it here. NawlinWiki 13:31, 27 January 2007 (UTC)" Why does it fail WP band? I'd say 3 albums released in 16 different countries gives them notability, they are known for their song hunger being thought to be a bootlegged new metallica song, They have had several songs near the top on a Christian Rock Chart. They are on may online music directories.--E tac 22:10, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Well thats just it, they are using false accusations about the band and using flawed logic to attack it's notability.--E tac 22:25, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Maybe I am being argumentive, but how is not pointing out peoples hypocricy and incorrect statements going to help? If I did that it would appear I agree with them and I do not.--E tac 22:26, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Please tell me I didn't put a db-bio tag on User:Hpinon. If so I am extremly sorry and Embarrassed. Shoessss 22:20, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you OH great one :-) Shoessss 22:24, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
hay wain
editThere is this : [16]. However, I don't see why the definition of the phrase hay wain should be on Wikipedia. One may look up hay and wain on Wiktionary. Zigzig20s 17:16, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Those two seem to be at each other's throats, see creation of Frank Califano (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Do you think they both should be blocked? ~ trialsanderrors 18:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks!
editThanks for the revert on my page. I owe you one! MetsFan76 18:58, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
You're right. The bands were not WL-ed in the article, and I failed to consult the talk page. No AfD here, blue links are automatic notability. GregorB 20:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Sean Wolfington
editHey, I removed that prod from Sean Wolfington, since the article recently survived an AfD with no consensus, so I thought the deletion should be discussed. I think another AfD would be a good idea though, since the last one didn't get much discussion. I don't want to nominate it myself since I've been working a lot with User:Seanwolfington, but I thought you might want to. I was also curious, though, if you thought that just cleaning out the advert-y stuff would be enough to make it keepable? Thanks, delldot | talk 05:02, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Sd comments
editHi. Your recently deleted a talk page orphaned by the main article delete. The comments applied were ""g8 content was: '==Speedy Delete==*Blatant nonsense. Image uploaded for this purpose. Why waste my time and your contesting the SD ? Has the author nothing better to...' (and the only contributor was 'Pedro1999a')) "". I can't see why my id was dragged into this. One look at the comments would indicte my vandal fighting not my vandalism. Or is the "only contributor" line automatically applied ? Thanks!Pedro1999a | Talk 13:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, typically, the software will include the contents of the page on an edit summary. In general, if there is a speedy deletion tag on a page, you don't need to create a talk page to request deletion as well. It just makes another page for the admins to delete. Thanks, NawlinWiki 13:55, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Ah sorry! It's just the SD was contested by the author, so I started the debate on why to SD, as per the instructions on the template to discuss on the talk page. Sorry to create more work!! Pedro1999a | Talk 14:34, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

editInstead of deleting so much can you start a page on Angella Christie the famouse gospel saxophone player. thanx.

Tribal Internet Marketing
editHi , I want to know why you deleted our page : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribal_Internet_Marketing
It been there for quite a long time and we are a serious business. Tribal is one of the market leaders in The Netherlands and works internationally. Can you help me to re-enter it respecting the guidelines ? According to the guidelines of deletion criteria #11 (Blatant advertising), an article should have inappropriate content to be removed. My opinion is that the article has no inappropriate content or whatsoever.
