Vargas Von Tullio

Hello Pichpich, you have recently put a vandalism tag on my "Vargas Von Tullio" page. I am sorry that I kept on deleting it. I was lying about Vargas Von Tullio and I feel guilty about that. Vargas Von Tullio is a made-up name. I wish to keep the page for personal purposes, but I will delete the inappropriate parts of the article and any other section that offends people/that is against the Wikipedia rules. I admire your ability to do the right thing. This idea was originally from a show "How I Met Your Mother" and I wanted to make a cool made-up name of my own and a website for myself, but my family is going through a tough time financially and I personally am saving for college so I am not able to pay for a website and a server myself. I was planning on putting a picture of myself on the article so my friends may see and be humored. My friends think of me as a magician and comedian. They are always telling me to show them a magic trick or show them something cool. I love cheering people up and making people feel good about themselves and everything else! You would do a great favor if will let me keep the article "Vargas Von Tullio", to entertain my friends, of course I will change it to a G-rated article. ;) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Genius and Tomato Soup (talk • contribs) 01:57, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Belinda songs

A tag has been placed on Belinda songs, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Lwow

Thanks for your interest in Lwów article. I hope you undid my edit in a good faith but you simply lack knowledge that is needed to describe places in Galicia region. 85.202.40.145 (talk) 14:02, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Please read WP:3RR. Thanks, 85.202.40.145 (talk) 14:17, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Please read Talk:Lviv#The_name_of_this_article_is_LVIV._That_is_the_name_to_be_preserved_throughout and many other threads on the talk page. The title of the article is Lviv and this name should be used pretty much throughout the article. This is a longstanding consensus and going against that consensus is disruptive and will be reverted. Pichpich (talk) 15:05, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

STOP EDIT WARRING. You violated the 3RR. 85.202.40.145 (talk) 15:34, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Your edits are disruptive. You're editing against a long standing consensus on the title of this article. Pichpich (talk) 15:37, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

It's just your opinion. There was a long standing consensus in the world that stated the Earth is flat. Does it prove anything? 85.202.40.145 (talk) 15:39, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

If you want to change the title of the article, by all means do start a move request but as long as the article is under the title Lviv, using Lwów throughout the article is incoherent. I invite you once again to participate in the discussions on the talk page. Pichpich (talk) 15:43, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Proposal to rename

Please see my proposal to speedily rename Category: Electric power in Central African Republic to Category: Electric power in the Central African Republic Hugo999 (talk) 00:12, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing my mistake. I've asked directly for the deletion of the category. Cheers, Pichpich (talk) 00:22, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Jimmy The Groundhog

Hello, I indicated on the comment for Jimmy the Groundhog that I had started with the source for the Wiarton Willie and was editing to replace Wiarton Willie information with the Jimmy the Groundhog information that I have acquired from reliable sources. I also indicated on the Jimmy the Groundhog talk page that I was currently editing the page to remove the Wiarton Willie page and add Jimmy the Groundhog information. But when I went to save the page - it had been deleted. Why did no one read the talk page and wait for me to finish adding the information that I said I was in the process of adding? Can you undelete the page so I can add the mentioned text? Thanks! Uncle uncle uncle 02:36, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

Category:Terrorists by status

Hello, Pichpich - I'd appreciate it if you would take another look at the CFD for this category and give serious consideration to my counter-proposal to rename the category rather than merging/deleting. Regards, Cgingold (talk) 02:23, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Begin Again

Sorry about that, I wasn't meant to submit, was just starting one and accidentally pressed save which automatically submitted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woody286786 (talk • contribs) 02:57, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

ok, no worries. I have two pieces of advice: first, you should probably create KLOQ (band) before creating an article about one of their albums. Second, there's already a Begin Again (album) so your article about the KLOQ album should be under the title Begin Again (KLOQ album). Let me know if you need help with any of that. Cheers, Pichpich (talk) 03:02, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the advise. I have created the Kloq band page. I have created it all, cited everything that needs be I believe. Just waiting for it to be reviewed. Thought I would make a start on their album. Not sure if you could take a look at that and tell me if there is anything else I could do to improve? I will also get that album name amended. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woody286786 (talk • contribs) 03:10, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Physics0x02-possible sockpuppet of the other one with a close name?

I just saw someone with this name on that math talk you were talking with-I think it is possible this is a sockpuppet.

Wgolf (talk) 04:05, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

meh, whatever. Looks like a high-schooler finding it oh-so-fun to create bogus articles. A nuisance for sure but so far not worth going through an SPI. I'll bet that he'll be bored soon enough. Pichpich (talk) 04:11, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello, mate, Physics0x01 again, I'd just like you to know that my IQ has a 99% chance of being higher than both of yours and I'll most likely be making tens of thousands of dollars more than you when I graduate college. Oh, and could you check up on the contest of deletion on my article's page? I'm sure you'd appreciate it. And, chap, you might want to look up the definition of conjecture... Infact, here it is for you: "an opinion or conclusion formed on the basis of incomplete information." (Google)

My article follows the strict definition of conjecture, and therefore everything I stated in valid within wikipedia criteria and your request for deletion is bogus. Go ahead and try to get the abc conjecture deleted also, I'm sure that is also bogus. ;D

Please proceed with deleting unwanted 'Category' pages.

Hello Pichpich,

Please proceed with the speedy deletion of the three 'Category' pages you identified earlier, with various spellings of 'Hurdy gurdy'. (I updated each of the three talk pages earlier today, giving reasons for why they can be deleted.)

I am glad there is an automated process for deletion, as I didn't know how to delete pages. Please accept my apologies for causing this extra work.

Thank you for your help!
With kind regards;

Aachen

I am not sure why you needed to jump in for the other editor; however seeing as you did, if you take a look at the history of the article you will notice that they were all "short month" style until User_talk:Ohconfucius decided to change all the dates per MOS:dates, which was incorrect and not needed. MOS:Dates states that the "Preferred" style for articles is the full month style; however for references and such, the short is perfectly fine. He agreed and changed it to the "incorrect--Current free-for-all" that it was before the changes. Please, if you are going to change a prevailing style of an article, and you run across caring editors that disagree, don't just revert (At the very least talk to the editor after you revert), as this is contrary to the way things work on Wikipedia. I will abstain from reverting again, as a show of good faith and ask why your way is better than the way that the article has been prior to the recent edits. Cheers speednat (talk) 22:35, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

I don't care about the dates in the references but for dates in the article, I think uniformity (day/month/year in this case) is important and is explicitly recommended by the MoS. Pichpich (talk) 22:41, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

I agree; however you never gave me a chance to state that to the orignal editor--Gaius Cornelius-- I believe. I changed, my wife booted me off the computer, and when I got back it had been reverteed. I normally would have just fixed it to my liking; however, when the majority of changes are of the type that I wish to change back (Ref. dates), I feel the onus should be on the original editor, and revert the entire edit and notify the editor. speednat (talk) 22:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

I made the edits in question; they were made in good faith as you indicate. I edited the article because it has a "Use dmy dates" template right at the top. My feeling is that article should be consistent with the MOS and where the MOS allows some flexibility the style of an article should be as internally consistent as possible. (That said, there are some things that have become "custom and practice" that are not explicitly mentioned in the MOS as far as I know: one of these would be no blank lines between items in a list, this being something I also changed.)

Recently I have been formatting dates from the all-number style to spelled-out in the manner requested by a "Use xxx dates" template, all-number dates are a left over from the past when users were able to choose a date format they preferred; this was never satisfactory as was dropped some time ago. There weren't many all-number dates in this article as it turns out and the expansion of abbreviated dates was something of a side effect. Still, I would defend full dates where space allows because they are clear and consistent, and because "Wikipedia is not paper".

I don't really have any strong feelings about this, I am just trying to make Wikipedia better. Formatting details like this are insignificant compared with the importance of dedicated contributors such as yourselves who should not have to feel that their efforts are being trampled upon nor their time wasted in fruitless arguments - so please go with whatever format you prefer.

Happy editing. Gaius Cornelius (talk) 08:03, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Recursive languages and sets

The article Recursive languages and sets has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A six-year-old "temporary" content fork

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
