Sorry for mistake

Sorry for deletion of a lot of information in the page 2010 ACN. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashusheva (talkcontribs) 19:38, 31 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

No worries! I've noticed you've come back to Wikipedia after a few months of absence, and I hope you're here to stay. We're all newcomers at some time, and becoming experienced with Wikipedia usually involves testing; if you would like to test, please use the Sandbox. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. I've left a welcome note on your talk page should you require any more information. Once again, welcome! Orthoepy (talk) 02:20, 1 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Deleting a valid topic.

edit

I posted a valid topic and you immediately removed it, obviously without any verification. If you get your kicks from trolling wikipedia thats fine, but at least verify what you're doing. No personal attacks here, so don't use it as an excuse to delete this for questioning you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChimichongaJonga (talkcontribs) 02:03, 12 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Your first edit to the Louis Vuitton appeared to have no relevance to the section and contained no citations. Your second edit replaced someone's name with the name of a character (Dino Spumoni) on Hey Arnold!. Furthermore, you vandalized my user page to include the word "feces" after I reverted your edits. I don't "get my kicks" from trolling Wikipedia, and I did not revert your personal attack edit on my talk page. If you would like to contribute to Wikipedia, please cite your sources on potentially dubious content. Orthoepy (talk) 02:20, 12 March 2011 (UTC)Reply


Screen

edit

What's your problem? You can't actually push a player during a screen in basketball, which is what I wrote. JungerMan Chips Ahoy! (talk) 02:56, 12 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sorry about that. Your edit appeared to be commentary and out of place (and was made after your first edit had been reverted). Orthoepy (talk) 20:08, 12 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
Ok, no problem. JungerMan Chips Ahoy! (talk) 02:01, 19 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Complaint Concerning Undue Process in the Deletion of Newly Posted References and Citations

edit

I had no sooner posted biblical references and external links on the Female Apostles text in the Female Disciples Article when you summarily deleted it without cause.

I am the originator of that text having researched and written most of the Female Apostle section of the Female Disciples article.

If you delete anyone's work, you should specifically quote the text that you find personally should be deleted and cite your rationale.

It is disconcerting to find one's work edited and omitted, at a whim no sooner than the save page button is hit.

Deletions must be substantiated and the text needs to remain available to the author to be edited for compliance rather than deleted without possibility of retrieval but you deleted this as soon as I posted it!

Today I worked for hours adding much needed biblical references and citations from other sources external to Wikipedia. And you have summarily removed it all without due process. Some of this I had saved to notepad digitally and was able to recover it , some was lost.

This is a formal complaint concerning your undue and unwarranted deletion. I have posted on the notice board for Dispute Resolution with DGW /Tuvok also ;

"Dispute Resolution Female Disciples:I did not vandalise my own article nor add non constructive content. I merely added further references ,external links and citations. Please see Dispute Resolution for details.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Catherine Curran (talkcontribs) 06:14, 28 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

It should be noted that nothing on any Wikimedia site is ever truly deleted. You will find your work in the article history, and can retrieve it from there. Tuvok[T@lk/Improve] 06:48, 28 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
Orthoepy: I hope you will add your thoughts to the discussion I have begun on the dispute resolution thread. Tuvok[T@lk/Improve] 07:15, 28 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
