You may be interested in Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rose_and_the_Jacksonettes given your reversions on NOLS. Fifelfoo 11:25, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Not impressed

Please don't blanket revert a libellous (and in any event outdated) article in Andrew Landeryou. I have substantially revised it and believe it is brought up to date and not the defamation it was. Please discuss changes with me and we'll work out something. DarrenRay 14:09, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Your attempt to start a revert war over Landeryou's article is explained by the comment above on 24 July. Please leave your bias out of Wikipedia articles. DarrenRay 07:34, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Can you please restore the TotallyDisputed indicator on the Barendse article? DarrenRay 08:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

UMSU

Please do not indescriminately revert my edits just because they follow on from Darren Ray's. Xtra 23:30, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Please do not indiscriminately revert my edits just because they are Darren Ray's. DarrenRay 01:46, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Darren Ray

Is it really necessary to revert or remove every word Darren Ray writes? Your editing is encroaching on harassment, which, I might add, is also a violation of Wiki etiquette. I understand that he can be biased, but surely at least some of his edits can be built on and incorporated. And at least he has the guts to stand up and admit his bias. Whereas I have no idea where your coming from and why you appear so obsessed with removing everything he writes. This revert war is really silly and needs to stop. Please try to incorporate both sides into articles instead of indiscriminately blanket reverting.

Also, when you nominate something for speedy delete, you just place the tag on the page. You don't add it to the AfD page. It then shows up on speedy deletion list and an admin will come and check if it meets the requirements for speedy deletion. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 12:38, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I agree. People should be judged on the merit of their edits, not on whether they contribute under their real name or not. That is what concerns me. I just keep seeing you reverting nearly everything Darren contributes and a lot of the time I don't think it is necessary. I do agree that he has an obvious bias, but then we're all biased. It's just a matter of whether or not we admit it. With regard to the statement that Carlo Carli is friends with de Pieri, I think it's a pretty petty and trivial thing to revert war over, specially as it's referenced in several different articles.

No problems re the deletion nom. I just thought I'd mention it to you for next time you want to nominate something. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 18:42, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

I refer you to Kim Carr Talk page and welcome your response. DarrenRay 08:39, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Socialist Alternative (Australia)

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Socialist Alternative (Australia), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but yours may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Andrew Landeryou

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Andrew Landeryou. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrew Landeryou (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:07, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.
