Unfortunately, I had to revert your changes to Electoral roll in order to restore the vfd notice and the history relating to it. Your intentions were in the right direction, but we generally wait for vfd's to play out before removing the notice. Also, if the page is kept solely because of your good changes, the silliness that came before it will be preserved in the page history (instead of being consigned to the static wasteland where it belongs). As I have suggested on the vfd page, the article should be deleted, then remade as a stub using the text you provided, which I moved to the bottom of the current article. bd2412 T 02:29, 2005 Jun 14 (UTC)
- The old article has now been speedily deleted, and you are free to put in your earlier text, which I have preserved:
- An electoral roll is a list of eligible voters in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Australia. Its function is similar to a census, in that it is a comprehensive population list, but it can be bought or sold privately by specialized companies.
Your user name
editI don't mean to be rude, but I find your user name offensive. I assume you know who Pol Pot was. I think you should reference the [usernames Wikipolicy] concerning user names )see the log in dialogue): Avoid choosing a username that is the name of a celebrity, or a political, military, or religious figure or event or known Wikipedia user.--naryathegreat | (talk) 02:50, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)
That's fine. I figured this was the case. I just saw the name and it was rather disconcerting because I've known people who sufferred under Pol Pot. Thanks, I didn't mean anything against you personally.--naryathegreat | (talk) 14:43, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)
