==Re: 'jeks'==
Oh come now, I wasn't necessarily referring to you. Unless, you're admitting that you are a among "those that try to scare away content editors", in which case you should resign immediately. -- [[User:Scorpion0422|<span style="color:#FF8C00;">Scorpion</span>]][[user talk:Scorpion0422|<sup style="color:black;">0422</sup>]] 19:17, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

:98% was a pretty  all-encompassing  statement so  I naturally assumed that it  was an oblique reference to  ''my'' work. What you are probably not aware of however, is that I'm in around only 4% who badger, cajole, coax, and 'threaten', and encourage young enthusiastic users into doing things right. After all, they may even be our next generation of admins! For your information  though, and to get you up to date, you  may wish to  read [[User talk:TBrandley|this page]] -  all  of it, including  the most recent  postings. You'll realise that it's not  easy when people won't read the instructions and policies first. Although it's sometimes rather exasperating for all  concerneactually d, most  older and established editors (and admins)  are here to  help, and ironically, most new editors are scared away by other new editors ;)  Put  this way, just for a fictional example, and as a pure hypothesis: if you  were a 63 year  old professor of English  and linguistics, a 7-year editor, creator of over 60 perfect, full-sized articles, and wrote an article [[Malvern, Worcestershire|like this]] almost single-handedly, and put it in  for GA, then you  get  a 14-year  old, non-native speaker pick up the review, who then tells you bluntly it's full of grammatical errors, and gives you 24 hours to address them - how would you react? I'd be interested to know how you would handle a situation like that.  [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 01:12, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
::I've got to give you credit, you handled my taunting far better than most admins could. Now that I look back, perhaps I was a little harsh with my original wording. I was frustrated, because I've seen situations where a promising new(ish) editor gets too passionate in the defense of his work, gets a 3RR block, loses interest, then disappears.
::In response to your off-topic hypothetical situation, something similar has happened to me (okay, I'm not a 63 year old professor, but bear with me), where an article I had up for GA was reviewed by a guy who had one of those babel templates on his userpage, and it said he was EN-2. His review was full of mistakes. I think I handled the situation well (I asked an experienced reviewer to give a second opinion). A bit off topic, but unfortunately, too many users would bite the reviewer (I've encountered one user whose page advertises that he's wikipedia's foremost generator of featured content, and he had no problem insulting or scaring away reviewers) but I've always tried to treat them with respect and avoid bashing them (well, publicly anyway), partially because I used to be heavily involved in the FL process. I guess that's why I took excpetion to what I interpreted as you being very heavy handed to a user who seemed genuinely interested in generating featured content. -- [[User:Scorpion0422|<span style="color:#FF8C00;">Scorpion</span>]][[user talk:Scorpion0422|<sup style="color:black;">0422</sup>]] 01:59, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

:::It all boils down to the fact that maintenance areas are a magnet to  younger, new, and inexperienced users. There are obvious reasons for this but I won't go into detail now. Another problem is that with  its huge population  of near-native speakers (but of a very different version of English), the Indian  sub-continent also provides a vast number of new, and enthusiastic users who also get involved in these areas and often clambour for user rights. If you  do  some checking  you'd be surprised how many  of them are students and even 'trainers' at  the CVUA for example,  and reviewers at  GA and FA. However, this also  applies of course to  near-native speakers from other regions. I went through sheer hell on my first couple of GAs because that was in the days when the reviews were done by  extremely experienced,  mature editors, one of whom  is now a member of Arbcom. So  you can probably  understand why I take some exception  at what  goes on here with the '' 'pass mine, and I'll  pass yours' '' that really  does go on here sometimes (without  pointing  a finger at  anyone in  particular). This is probably  the reason  why  I  rarely  bother now to  submit  my  articles, all  of which  are of a very  high  standard, to  GA or FA. For the same reason, I  don't bother doing any reviews either although I am  fully capable of it, so you  see how these things hurt the system.  Keep up your good work, and as I say to  everyone: don't hesitate to come to  my talk  page if ever you need help or advice;  and if you're sure of ''your'' stuff, don't  hesitate either to  share your knowledge with  others too.

Hi there.  I saw that you removed the CSD tag I added to this article with the edit summary "Rm db-nocontext to replace with correct CSD criteria".  I've been doing some NPP the past few days, and have found a handful of articles in other languages.  Is there a CSD tag for foreign language articles that are not on other wikis, or a different procedure for dealing with them?  I'd rather not mistag any more articles if I can avoid it.  Thanks. —<B>[[User:Torchiest|Torchiest]]</B> <sup>[[User talk:Torchiest|talk]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-3ex;">[[Special:Contributions/Torchiest|edits]]</sub> 22:53, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

:There is a very precise procedure for dealing with non English articles. It is detailed on  [[WP:NPP|this page]] (most  of which  I  co-rewrote a year or so ago) - it's an essential tutorial for page patrolling although  the new NewPagesFeed still does not address many  of the cases it should. If it hasn't been deleted yet you  can check  out the new CSD  tag I have added to the article. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 23:02, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

==[[Blended learning]]==
Please excuse my bluntness but I have criticised your nomination of this article for deletion at the [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blended learning (2nd nomination)|AFD]] and [[Wikipedia:Article_Rescue_Squadron/Rescue_list#Blended_learning|ARS]].  Your comments would be appreciated as it may be that I have missed some aspect of your thinking or am just being too harsh.  But the matter currently seems to be symptomatic of a systemic failure; the process just isn't working as it is supposed to and so we need to rethink it.

:My answer to this would be 'Not enough recent vandalism to justify protection'(but I have not checked any  sub-pages you  might  have).

It takes away the added stress of constantly reverted pages people shouldn't be editing in the first place and having to revert vandalism from people (always vandals and trolls) I have pissed off doing my "job".

==WP:CVUA==

Thank you for being infinitely more eloquent and patient in your explanations to them than I am able to be. I deleted four different attempts at explaining what you managed to do much more articulately... mostly because all of mine had some sarcastic slant starting with "However have we managed to fight vandalism for the last half-decade without a bunch of high school students to instruct us on how to do it correctly???" I did want to point out that I wasn't encouraging them to continue templating anyone that looks even vaguely like they might want to revert vandalism, but rather suggesting that they do a narrowly targeted approach toward leaving a helpful note to those that appear to need help with that (which is, in my mind, very few people). But as [[User:TenOfAllTrades|TenOfAllTrades]] once pointed out, CVUA seems to thrive on taking something that is very easy and pretending it's something hard. About twenty thousand vandalism reverts worth of experience tells me that anyone who requires extensive coaching to revert vandalism probably shouldn't be doing it to begin with. [[User:Trusilver|<span style="font-family:papyrus; color:#686868;">Trusilver</span>]] 08:11, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

:I  certainly  agree that  CV is not  rocket  science. It  doesn't  need a PhD to  remove 'penis' (actually  I  think  ClueBot does that  one automatically). Nevertheless there are some subtle vandalims of a kind that  the neither the bots nor the CVUers catch. I catch  them  because I  have a speciall school  article watchlist, and another 10,000+ sensitive pages on  my  wl. What  I  have tried to  do  by  cutting  down CVUA to  the bare essentials was to  give no room  at  all for clerking  and coordination in  order to  clear out  the good faith  but  not  good-skill  work  that  was done by  the former group of editors. The fact  that  Dan and Theo (not  so  much  Theo) are back in  there with  their suggestions does not inspire much  confidence, and in  spite of my  stressing  the word ''maturity'' umpteen times, the penny  still  does not  seem  to  have dropped. I'll  still  never understand why  NPP  is open for everyone to  do when CV needs a user right  like Rollback - NPP  needs a near-admin  level  of clue and if  done wrongly, can wreak a lot  more damage than a simple  inaccurate vandal  revert.

Hence I'm  rather surprised to  see you  resorting  to  personal  attacks. I'm  not  complaining, because I, and as many  other admins have reported,  we syops are used to  taking  a lot  of criticism and derision and usually  try  to  respond to  it politely  and with  dignity, or just  not  respond at  all.

::The embarrassment is that you've missed the point so completely, so grotesquely, that apparently I need to spoonfeed the most basic concepts to you.

:::Some items in your response here (and there) puzzle me. You and I may have argued about issues related to school notability, a long time ago; if so I imagine it was more than a year ago and I don't remember anything about it.

:::What else I may "rarely agree with", I have no idea. I have always supported your efforts towards RfA reform, even if, like many others, I never had time to engage in the project itself. As for CVUA, my comments (both publicly and privately) contributed to, and perhaps helped initiate, your efforts to restructure CVUA.

:::You should be careful with comments like the ones you made to me and about Sigma, and I think recent commenters here on your talk page (about what you "want" them to say or do) help illuminate this. No-one should ever be in the least bit interested in "if I do what Kudpung says then Kudpung will nominate me", and in fact anyone who leaped at such things would be a very questionable candidate. News: many of us are prepared to entertain the idea of trying an RfA, but it's not the big deal you want to make it. Connecting it with ridiculous behaviour like that, is only going to shame you and drive legitimate candidates away.

:::Regarding your antics on my talk page, I accept that it may have been a mistake based on a too quick reading. I also see that you view yourself, in your own words, as "a Wikipedia black-belt". But I do suggest that you take a little more time, and thought, over how you direct your karate-kicks. --[[User:Demiurge1000|Demiurge1000]] ([[User_talk:Demiurge1000|talk]]) 23:05, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Kudpung

Re your comments
 
 
 
1)       I have eliminated any links to networking sites and apparent disallowed sources per your request such as “bare citations”. Any major claims not substantiated by independent citation have been removed. Most textual links are to internal wiki sites that do not contain significant issues. All multiple citations for the same link have been removed.
 
 
 
2)       Re the issue of WP:bio which states that “For Wikipedia:Notability (people), the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice" – that is, "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded”
 
 
 
The subject of this page meets all of those criteria. The page is the only one to my knowledge dedicated to Mr. Layton and is not as you have suggested part of a “Link Farm” - if I understand your meaning. Mr. Layton has consistently avoided publicity over the years and others have written about him in sometimes inaccurate and occasionally in a libelous manner – particularly in the Middle East. He is known to virtually tens of thousands of people worldwide for many different things he has done by people who find his life of “interest” and “significance” for one reason or another. This PAGE is merely a statement for the record of who he is and what he has done. Assertion of notability…
 
 
 
A)       He is a published author of books recognized by other prominent authors who themselves have wiki pages or who have been NY Times best sellers (see “published works). His books have been recognized by a US Senator and Lt. Governor  as substantially contributing to the effort to achieve democracy in Kurdistan of Iraq 

B)        He has testified before the US Senate on the issues of Genocide against the Kurds as an expert on the subject along with other notables (1 of 5 chosen for hearings for the Senate Foreign relations Committee hearings  and he is listed in Library of Congress as such 

C)      He has been country director for one of the largest political and health care projects ever run  by the US State Department in Kurdistan of Iraq (HCP) 

D)      He has consulted for the Kurdish government and represented them in Washington DC
 
E)       He has directed a large British/Kurdish public/private development partnership in Kurdistan half owned by the Kurdish Government under the auspices of the Prime Minister Nichervan Barzani 

F)       He is recognized as a key promoter of religious freedom in Kurdistan of Iraq and has been referenced in numerous articles and magazines worldwide 

G)      He is an associate of The Next Century Foundation – a renowned conflict resolution entity in London
 
H)      He served on the faculty of The University of the Presidents (YPO) an organization comprised of some of the top CEOs in the world 

 
 
… To name a few of his accomplishments and pursuits that makes him a person of interest to potential Wikipedia readers. I have researched many Wiki sites and believe Mr. Layton certainly qualifies as a person of “significance and interest” compared with many others who have been included in Wikipedia
 
 
 
3)       As for the issue of style – Apart from the issue of citation format I am not sure what you mean as I have researched a number of bio sites that seem to have the same style and in fact copied the style from another wiki site to insure the style was consistent with others in Wikipedia. However if style is an issue and I can understand what the issues are clearly I will make any necessary corrections.
 
 
 
Thanks again for your input and I hope this serves to resolve the issues you have raised.

I just tidied this page a bit, added a reference etc., as a base point, even though I feel the subject's notability is at best borderline. Having done that, I was about to move it to a properly-named page with capitalised surname, when I found it is protected. So presumably there is a past here that I was unaware of? Anyway, if that is so, perhaps it is best to take this to a more permanent resolution one way or another by titling it properly and then going via AfD?

I happen to like your altruistic notices, but I would like it ''more'' if you interact with me in ''congenial'', informal terms as opposed to very rigid-seeming, formal notices.

:Hi  Mrt3366. Well,  that's about  nine times in the last  few days I've had to  drop you  a message about  your patrolling. In  fact  if I  were to  use the standard template messages they  would be even less friendly. How about  starting  to  get  your patrolling  right and then I  won't  have to  message you  so  often?

::Maybe I am wrong, but are you saying that if don't do patrolling exactly the way ''you'' want me to do (PROD or CSD the pages you want to delete) then I ought to not patrol pages?? If that is the case then you should know that you cannot force somebody like that. I've already told you that the pages I patrol usually aren't chosen by ''me''. Plus I am new at this. Hence, you cannot or rather, should not put pressure on me this way, this is '''not''' helping me. I am freaking out more than anything else. If you feel I didn't tag a page with enough tags, then add tags which you think I've left out, to the page after I'm done and ''please'' leave me alone. <p>However, if you ''sincerely'' want to help me then first and foremost change your ''stern'' and ''officious'' tone. You're not anybody's boss here (certainly not mine), some politeness is looked forward to from a senior editor and ''especially'' from an administrator. I don't wish to precipitate wisdom-ridden disquisitions on you, but with greater power comes heavier responsibility. If you can accomplish these two then teaching me anything might not seem such an arduous task.

:::We're starting  off on  the wrong foot here. I  may  be one of the pioneers of research and improvement  of the NPP  system but  I  certainly  do  not seek  to  impose my  own will. My  involvement  with  NPP  and deletion  policies began long  before I  was given the 'powers' of adminship, and being  an admin  has relatively  little to  do  with  it. Fra from  being  stern and officious, the messages you  get  from  me are polite and to  the point, and are very  similar to  the messages other experienced users send to  patrollers who  aren't getting  it  quite right. The reason  you  get  so  many  from  me is because I'm one of the most  active editors  in  this field. Nobody  wants, or can force you  to  to  patrol pages in  any  particular way -  we are all  volunteers here and we do what  we can, when we can,  and we appreciate ''every''  effort to  both give new articles a boost, and to  ensure that  the encylopedia is kept  free of unsuitable new pages. However, Wikipedia has policies and guidelines for all  this and they  were decided not  by  me but  by  community  consensus. Although it  involves a lot  of reading  and practice, our policies for notability  and deletion are clear and sufficiently  unambiguous , so  patrollers should not  find it  too  hard after reading  [[WP:DELETION]] and [[WP:NPP]]. If however they  do need help, they  are welcome to  go  to [[User:Kudpung/NPP mentoring|this page]],  but I must tell you that at the moment I am very busy.

Hence, when I couldn't detect the language, I tagged it with {{t|notenglish}}. Apparently it was not enough. BTW, I didn't pass it for inclusion it was ''already'' included. I need some practice okay, be ''patient''. Yes, I could have done more but chose not to. <p>I got the hang of BLPPROD (clear and simple), I think, same way I will get the hang of other rationales for deletion. Don't worry.

*[[Monsunia]]: All geographical  locations are generally  kept unless the article is a blatant  hoax. It  helps if the creator provided the geo location. What  you  might  have considered doing  would be to  fix the layout and add at  least  one category. If  you're using  the New Pages Feed, it  would  help  to  leave a friendly  message for the creator on  what  they  can still  do  tp improve the article.

*[[Star Island, Ontario]]: Certainly  doesn't  have much  content  or context  yet, but  again, it  looks as if it  might  have been further developed -  as above, geographocal  locations are hardly  toxic, and we have a rule of not  tagging  A1 or A3 too  quickly. I'd be surprised if the creator bothers to  continue working on it now. 

The essence of patrolling  pages is ''accuracy''  not ''speed'', and remember, you're not  alone out  there, others are patrolling  too, so the very  best  advice is if you  don't  know what  to  do, leave it and move on  to  another page. Go for the low hanging  fruit  first and patrol the harder ones when you  have gained more confidence with  the tools.

== Revisiting RfA reform ==

Hi Kudpung. I was wondering what you thought had changed based on this recent RfA? Before running back to solutions such as minimum requirements or spending another 6-8 months trying to reform RfA, I think it would be better to actually discuss what went wrong (if anything) at the RfA. Perhaps let the dust settle and have some rational, focussed discussion at WT:RfA. Remember, people are allowed to oppose candidates, for whatever reason they wish - even if we feel the candidate is a good one, consensus may not be with us. [[User:Worm That Turned|<span style='text-shadow:0 -1px #DDD,1px 0 #DDD,0 1px #DDD,-1px 0 #DDD; color:#000;'>'''''Worm'''''</span>]]<sup>TT</sup>([[User Talk:Worm That Turned|<span style="color:#060;">talk</span>]]) 09:38, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

:I am totally unconcerned with what the voters think of me or the other nominators. I  have no  affinity  with  the candidate, and although I  thought  sincerely and genuinely that  he would make an excellent admin, we can't  win  them all (neither did WereSpielChequers), and I am personally untouched by an eventual  non-promotion. What  concerns me most is the collateral  damage to  the system by  turning  RfAs into  a dramafest. [[WT:RfA]]  is almost  certainly  not  the best  place to  discuss reform - that's why  we started RFA2011 as a place to  work  with  a better signal-to-noise ratio. This time round there are some very  clear indications of what  needs to  be changed. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 10:14, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

== RFA  ==

I suspect your antipathy towards me stems from our first interaction last December when you responded to a civil question with an unnecessarily combative response for which you subsequently sort of recognised that your attitude was inappropriate. Subsequently I have ridiculed some preposterous attempts at RFA reform (which I am entitled to do) which has obviously antagonised you further, culminating in you referring me to [[WP:AN]] yesterday. Your fellow nominators were not in the least put out by my approach but you were happy to see me suffer bad faith hazing in which you freely participated. Whatever the reason for your approach, I think you are over-assertive and on occasion aggressive without justification and on that basis it is likely that we will rarely see eye to eye. Where I do agree with you I will say so. As you welcome forthright comments that is what I've given you. Here are more detailed responses to your comments. No obligation to reply, we will not persuade one another.
:#I read it all and in my response probably unfairly focused on the bit I most disagreed with 
:#Without  prejudice to  the current  RfA, ''open, honest, robust debate'' should not  be a licence to  turn an RfA into  a dramfest - agreed. That includes Admins. like you. As I've often said, they should know how to behave better than most
:# If the community  insists on  being  allowed to  hand the bit  to  6-month, 6,000-edit candidates, then there is no  justification  whatsoever for dragging  up  dirt that  is older for someone who  has been around longer and contributed a lot  more content. - Where is  the evidence that the community has "insisted" on anything like that? RFA is down to the individual circumstance at the time and if a 6 month editor passes, they pass. If an 18 month editor turns up with "baggage" older than 6 months that is the risk they run. It is at the will of the community, not a select group applying what they think are suitable rules
:#What  people do  outside official Wikimedia projects is also no  concern of ours - I disagree and as this seems to have been the turning point for that RFA, nor do a lot of other people. You are of course entitled to you own opinion but not your own facts and the majority are apparently against vandalism - where and when matters less that the fact that it happend at all
:#nominators  are under no  obligation whatsoever to  make such research - I have thoughts about this which are inappropriate to discuss during this RFA
:#Candidates should be judged solely  on the merits or demerits of their work here - same point as above
:#Cunard's oppose vote was little more than an attack  on  the integrity  of the nominators,  much of which was grotesquely  off topic - yes, some of it was off-topic. I believe a majority of it was a convincing & detailed oppose rationale.

== Need your opinion on two things ==

Two following two things are vexing me:
#I came across a page called [[Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Infosurv, Inc.]] and then [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Infosurv]] what does this mean? I think the page is best where it is, do you? Just checking the strength of my evaluation. You might also like to comment [[User_talk:Mrt3366#Infosuv_article_not_accepted|here on my talk]], albeit I would like it if you stayed out of the discussion (don't want to be accused of [[WP:CANVASS|canvassing]]).
#Check <span class="plainlinks">[http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Storage_Hunters&diff=516649618&oldid=516646633 this]</span> instance of section blanking. And do whatever the need dictates. I, for one, think it's a case of [[WP:POV]] (but it's based on a cursory glance so it's susceptible to mistakes), now given my terribly slow net connection and relative inexperience, I cannot afford to follow any lengthy dialogue. You're best suited for this, Kudpung. 
I leave it entirely up to you. I will not get involved in it any further.

As you can see there are some sources claiming to be operated by state departments (*.gov). But you focus on only "ripoffreport.com", why?

:I didn't say they were all blogs. The only thing that can be reliably sourced is that Tassone claims that he has a moving business and also has a comedy act. (refs 1 and 2). Note that ref 2 merely says he's a comedian. It does not remotely verify (a) that his comedy routine utilized the "Scott the Mover" persona or (b) that he used it until his initial appearance on Storage Hunters.  The ripoffreport.com is unacceptable per the reason I gave you above. The California documents are inadmissible per [[WP:BLPPRIMARY]]. But we shouldn't clog up Kudpung's page with this.

== Cunard ==

Between bludgeoning and quoting me out of context, I'm working if an RfA topic ban is needed at WP:AN.  For me, it isn't about the candidate, whom I don't have any feelings for one way or the other, but I have worked very hard to return some normality to RfA since my own, and if we start condoning this kind of disruptive behavior, we can expect more of it.  I had contacted an Arb, who did nothing, and complained in a number of forums, to no result, so I"m rather disappointed in the community response in this.  I had voted so felt I couldn't be as aggressive as the situation warranted.  I don't want to see this kind of behavior from anyone at RfA, and only by the act having consequences that prevent future acts can we guarantee this.

:Well, I  know how you  feel. I  spent  hundreds of hours pioneering  and  and managing  the [[WP:RFA2011]] project  and as you  can probably  understand, I'm  sick of these repugnant  voters.

If there's anything  I can do to help I will even if it compromises my future runs for crat or arb. The problem is that admins are expected to  take untold abuse and are not allowed to react  to it. For starters, while I  value Scottywong's initiative, that  block  should have been indef, with  a permanent  site ban - enough  is enough. But  since arbcom  has practically  decreed that  RfA  is a safe haven for those who smugly pride themselves in  their disruption  and their success at  deliberately  bringing  the RfA system  to  its knees, I don't really  see where we can go  from  here.

::What bothers me is that I have seen people get blocked for less, at my own RfA.  If there is a process that demands equity, it is RfA.  That should be our shining example of fairness.  I can tolerate heated debate, I've started a few of my own, but some lines still must be drawn and when someone is told multiple times by different people that their "contribution" is excessive and they just deny and revert back, that is problematic.  Had I not voted, I would have blocked him.  I'm disappointed that the reaction to the bludgeoning was so weak, and I credit that to sigma having lost popular support.

== Stepping back and regrouping ==

You have done a great deal of work. I need to remember that when posting in order not to allow others to use me to bring you down. I don't wish to begin suggesting things that will just be brushed off by others in an attempt to make me out as some freak or someone that can be walked over. At the same time, while I have the ability to fight in a similar manner (trust me.....I can be a far bigger ass than others) it won't improve the project. I need to step back and regroup before I submitt any ideas. This is a serious issue. One that I feel needs to be addressed in the best possible manner. Give me some time and i hope to post some ideas. If not then I probably decided it was not worth being personaly destroyed over.--[[User:Amadscientist|Amadscientist]] ([[User talk:Amadscientist|talk]]) 05:37, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

:The time has finally  come come for every  constructive effort to  reach  a solution.

That's probably  the reason  why  I  don't  go  to  meetings when I  know they  will be there.

Thank you for letting me know about this over at New Editor Retention. I had no idea this was an actual initiative.

Is there a reason why I can be denied this for so long, for such a mistake, and still be possibly denied after the next three months. I know there are users who aren't perfect with most of their edits, however, clearly I try to at least halt the vandals on my talk page and and further contributions, I tend to at least help in some reviews, if only possible denial I may find this denying my right to use the review and send a complaint to Wikipedia itself. 

All I'm saying is I trying to use this review to suggest a more suitable table for articles in Wikipedia and not to show off in any form, I understand the policies from [[Wikipedia:Reviewing]], request, and forms of vandalism policies I am stilling willing to learn the review, once again, I am willing to build articles by using the review and other methods to help new articles   --<span style="text-shadow:#222222 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">[[User:GoShow|GoShow]]</span>[[User talk:GoShow|<span style="color:navy;"> <small>(............................) </small></span>]]  00:54, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

== Rollback-related question ==

I have a question: Would I be allowed to suggest that someone else be given rollback at [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback]], or is that a thing where only the user himself or herself may request it? [[User:AutomaticStrikeout|Automatic]]''[[User talk:AutomaticStrikeout|Strikeout]]'' 02:11, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

:History  has shown that generally  only  'Autopatrolled' is requested by  users other than the editor concerned, which  makes sense because Autopatrolled is a technical aid for the New Page Patrol system and not  a 'hat' or a privilege for users to  collect. That  said, PERM  is not  a mini  RfA where users are nominated and where !voting  takes place - something  which  the non admins who  post there often fail  to  understand. Proxy  requests for an editor  who  has already  been given 'no' for an answer are also likely to be met with a decline. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 02:51, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

:::Not strictly doing  anything  wrong or a breach  of any  policy  that  I'm  aware of, but  making  proxy  requests would not  be looked upon  favourably and you  might be told that  the user should make the application  him/herself. After all, if an editor  is clueful enough to  obtain the  user right, shouldn't  they  be mature enough to  make the requests themselves? By  the same token, candidates for adminship who  can't  do  their RfA transclusions  themselves have already  demonstrated that  they  can't  master an operation  that  is essential  to  the work  of admins. A point  to  ponder. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 03:57, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

You said that it wasn't technically inappropriate, but that it wouldn't be looked upon favorably.  I think we are mincing words at this point, but to me, it seems like it would be OK (and would not be looked upon unfavorably...ugh, double negative) for AutomaticStrikeout to suggest to a user directly that they apply for rollback, given that sufficient research has been done on the user's contributions and behavior to support that rollback would be used responsibly.  I'm sorry that my choice of words was not very good, but I was just attempting to make a suggestion to AutomaticStrikeout based on how I've learned about various permissions and tools here.

It might be possible that we differ on how we interpret the word inappropriate in this situation.  I honestly didn't think I was overstating or misrepresenting your response, but clearly I am in the wrong here, and I apologize for my behavior.  I do think my suggestion was related to AutomaticStrikeout's original question, as he seemed to want to help another user gain rollback permissions.  So, from my perspective, it made sense for him to suggest it to the user directly.  I know it wasn't mentioned explicitly, but I thought it might be helpful.  That's all.  It was not my intention to step on your toes, or make any negative accusations about anyone's conduct or opinions here, but clearly I didn't do a great job about that.  I will be more mindful about making responses here in the future.

:::::::::::::Mmm, fresh perspective.  Thanks for sending it my way.  Those comments span across a few different issues, and some of them resonate with me.  I'll make some comments here, but don't feel like you need to respond to them unless you want to.

No wonder that [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User:Writ_Keeper/test&diff=518626444&oldid=518621769 "staying out of ANI" is considered a plus].  However, some stuff doesn't sit well with me.  Call me biased because I might be one of those whippersnappers, but I don't really subscribe to the idea of judging RfA candidates or others based on how old their account is / whether they've had access to Twinkle / whether they've "accomplished something."  These requirements ignore the fact that many experienced editors who fail these criteria can have well-informed and valuable opinions that are worth listening to.  I mean, if one such user has a set of personal criteria for an RfA, isn't it just easier to appraise their support / opposition based on the quality of their criteria?  Anyway, I am sure those predictors work sometimes to weed out unnecessary comments, but they seem like broad generalizations.

Broadly, I  come across these problems every day  at  PERM, AfC, AfD, RPP, AiV, NPP, etc., and it's one of the reasons, for example, which  also  led the CVUA being  remodeled.

:Yeah, I've been watching these events unfold, but I really have no desire to participate in them.  I have nothing constructive to add.  As far as I've been able to ascertain the context of each, I am sure each user believed their actions were justified in policy, guidelines, or their personal philosophy, but were still done in poor judgment.  When it comes to interpersonal situations and conflict, something many editors, myself included, can always get better at is knowing when to pick your battles.  I do believe it is important to speak out against perceived injustices, but it is also helpful to know when you will add nothing helpful to the discussion, even if something seems unfair.

For example, although you  might  have seen me around at  ANI, in  fact  I'm not  one of the regulars  and I very  rarely  comment  there ''because'' it's swamped by  the wannabe admins.

== [[WP:RRN]] ==

Hey Kudpung. So, I've received three different emails (generally from people who were around during the start of [[WP:CVUA]]) suggesting that I put in an RFA. While I would find The Tools™ useful in what I do, I just don't think I'm ready at all (though, I have some serious self-worth issues that I'm working to fix). As someone who has generally been around the same places, but that I don't feel like I have a close, personal relationship with, I'm wondering if you'd be willing to look through my contributions and assess my chances at RFA. I think I can be useful, but I don't want "another premature CVUA RFA", as it were. If you have time, I'd really appreciate a 100% honest and open review of my chances at RFA. Cheers!

:Hi. Give me a day  or two. This takes a couple of days to do  and I'm  out  of town today. In  the meantime, please read [[WP:Advice for RfA candidates]] and follow all  the links in  it  and the footnotes, and [[User:Kudpung/RfA criteria]].  These two  pages will  already  give you  a fair idea of where you  stand. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 21:21, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
::Oh, I've definitely already read [[WP:RFAADVICE]], as well as just about every [[WP:OMGWTFBBQ]] TLA out there. In fact, and I don't know if this says something good or bad about me, I think I read just about every policy, guideline, and well-supported essay that there was ''before'' I registered and started seriously contributing. My biggest downside, I feel, is that I haven't created any articles, at all. My content work has focused on Portals (where I brought [[Portal:New England]] up to featured from the shell it once was and am currently working to recreate [[Portal:Nazi Germany]] after the old version was MFD'd for being far too pro-Nazi) and fixing the holes in the content we already have. I understand, and recognize and accept, that I'm never going to be the Article-writing type; I do maintenance, and some of it, fairly important maintenance. Thanks for looking into this for me. And please, feel free to take your time and do it whenever you get around to it. I'm asking you for a favor, and I have no pretension that might suggest that my wants are more important than the things you need to do. Cheers!

== Why does wikipedia have this rule? ==
I desperately need confirmed status on my account. I cannot wait 4 days for autoconfirmation. I am being denied on the basis that my article isn't finished yet. I do not understand this. Can you please explain to me what the reasoning is behind such a rule? I am new to wikipedia, and I understand that there are rules, but why a rule that insists that I complete the text portion of an article before I can upload images? Please see: [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Confirmed#User:C_Coligniero]] Why can't I do the article one portion at a time? --[[User:C Coligniero|C Coligniero]] ([[User talk:C Coligniero|talk]]) 02:49, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
:{{tps}} One way to get your article approved is by submitting it to [[WP:AFC|Articles for creation]] where a reviewer will take a look at it and provide suggestions, or approve it. In answer to your question regarding reasoning behind the rule, I would attribute it at least partly to the [[Siegenthaler Incident]].

==Page Curation newsletter - closing up!==
Hey all :).

We're (very shortly) closing down this development cycle for Page Curation. It's genuinely been a pleasure to talk with you all and build software that is so close to my own heart, and also so effective. The current backlog is 9 days, and I've ''never'' seen it that low before.

However! Closing up shop does ''not'' mean not making any improvements. First-off, this is your last chance to give us a poke about unresolved bugs or report new ones [[Wikipedia talk:Page Curation|on the talkpage]]. If something's going wrong, we want to know about it :). Second, we'll hopefully be taking another pass over the software next year. If you've got ideas for features Page Curation doesn't currently have, stick them [[Wikipedia_talk:Page_Curation#Future_software_.28please_comment.21.29|here]].

Again, it's been an honour. Thanks :). [[User:Okeyes (WMF)|Okeyes (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Okeyes (WMF)|talk]]) 12:24, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello,

I am wondering why you deleted the AMRAP Nutrition page. 

Please tell me how it appeared to be promotional / advertising as I trust your opinion and respect your concern for keeping garbage out of Wikipedia. However this company is doing good things and I am one of many that think we should support them. 

Kindly review their Facebook page ( https://www.facebook.com/AMRAPnutrition ) and please let me know your final thoughts as I will respect and support them. 

Thank you and have a nice day!

:Hi. I cannot connect to the FaceBook page because I do not have an account there. Also, a FaceBook  page is not a reference of importance that  asserts notability  for Wikipedia articles.  The article was deleted because the content read like a social  networking  or directory  entry, with  promotional  text  and links. Companies must  satisfy  our criteria at  [[WP:ORG]] -  that  means that  their significance must  be supported by multiple independent  third-party sources such  as dedicated articles in  the established press. I'm  afraid that  AMRAP Nutrition will probably  not  be able to  meet these requirements. For more information  please see the notice on  the creator's page at [[User talk:IHeartAutumnVT]]. Thanks.

== Unreadable user page ==

[[File:User page in lynx.png|thumb|My user page in [[Lynx (web browser)|Lynx]] with default settings]] Hey Kudpung, I assume you noted my user page as unreadable for one of two reasons: 1) the colours hurt your eyes, or 2) it doesn't render properly in your browser. I wanted to note that I have no emotional attachment to any aspect of it, but also that there is a thought process here.<p>
As far as the colours go, I understand that they are not the standard on Wikipedia, but they exist in that form for a reason. If you spend any time using a command line or text-based operating system, you know that such software is almost always distributed with black backgrounds and non-white text. This is because people who spend excessive amounts of time looking at text on computer screens usually find (if they have given it a good shot) that such a colour scheme tends to keep the eyes from getting tired. If you note the image to the right, that is what my user page looks like in a text-based environment. I did not choose those colours, that is how the software is distributed. I would be happy to change the colours, I just chose those because it is what I am used to seeing elsewhere. I have never had anyone come to me (in person or on Wikipedia) to say that they could not read my user page, but that does not mean there aren't people out there who can't (triple negative!).<P>
With respect to rendering, I do look at my user page in modern and ancient browsers, and have only seen it not render properly with software that can't render the rest of Wikipedia anyway. Do you have a problem seeing it?<P>
In short, I would change it without strife if someone could provide a credible reason for it. I would appreciate your thoughts. <span style="font-family: DejaVu Sans, sans-serif; ">'''[[User:Hajatvrc|<span style="color:purple">hajat</span>]][[User talk:Hajatvrc|<span style="color:green">vrc</span>]]''' @</span> 07:49, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
:{{tps}}. I had a look. It loads fine, but it ''is'' virtually unreadable. There is insufficient contrast between the black background and the dark purple and blue coloured text. Your user page is where other editors can find out more about you, and to a certain extent is how you choose to present yourself here. No one will bother to find out more with a page that looks like that. I had to highlight all the text just to be able to read it easily, and it runs the risk of implying to others (rightly or wrongly) that you put a low priority on communicating clearly and a high priority on looking "cool". Just a bit of advice. Best, [[User:Voceditenore|Voceditenore]] ([[User talk:Voceditenore|talk]]) 08:49, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

Kudpung, maybe you can judge whether [[Peasant revolution in Thailand]] is a viable article--I have my doubts. The user has a specific interest in this field which you can see at [[Talk:Peasant's revolution]]. Thanks! [[User:Drmies|Drmies]] ([[User talk:Drmies|talk]]) 17:01, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

:A. An opinion piece, essay, or academic dissertation (which according to the author it is) with  some supporting  print references that can neither be easily verified nor checked for copyvio. Just  because an article is referenced does not  mean it  is suitable for inclusion -  all academic theses have footnotes. Wikipedia is not  a place for simply publishing  original  research - whether acaademic or not, and  with  or without  footnotes. That's my  take on it. If  it  were an article in an established peer reviewed journal, a Wikipedia piece on  Thai  history  could reference to  it  as a source, but in my opinion, that's as far as it goes. The deleted stub by the same author started off in the same tone. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 12:15, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

== It's been a while. ==

Hi, Kudpung! It's a been a while since we talked, but I just had a question about [[WP:NPP]] that I thought you'd be more than fit to answer. In instances like [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Yangloudong&diff=518871790&oldid=518871447 this], I end up having an edit conflict/such with one of the copyright bots -- which I am unaware of until ''after'' saving the page, because of the way Twinkle processes CSD tagging. My question for you is: Is my tagging completely redundant (and should be reverted, trouted, and thrown into a large cage), or... not?

:Perfectly  OK. However, you  might  wish  to  follow up  on  the Duplication  Detector report and decide whether the entire article should be CSD'd or whether you can attempt a quick  clean up.

== article about Jason Shulman ==

Hello Kudpung,

Thank you for your comments in response to my question about the article on Jason Shulman. I'm new to Wiki, so your comments were very helpful.

I wondered if I could check something with you...

I had believed that the following establishes Rev Shulman’s notability:
* The books he has authored (very impressive list in bibliography - coauthor of book with Isaac Asimov; his most recent book was in the Amazon bestseller list etc)
* His music for theatre, advertising and spiritual music (listed in discography)
* Being the founder and head of a growing organisation with students from around the world
* Creating a new body of spiritual work that brings together Judaic and Buddhist thought

I'd be grateful for any thoughts you could offer on how I could build my case based on these facts...?

Thank you once again for taking the time to write and give me feedback.

Best wishes,
Sharadha

Hi Kudpung, 
Thank you once again for this very helpful feedback. May I run a quick question by you: Two well-known books about healing have dedicated an entire chapter each to Shulman and his teachings. The authors had no personal connection to him, so they are independent sources. Further: comments/blurbs for his books came from highly respected folk - Stephen Covey, Lama Surya Das, Carolyn Myss etc. Would these help in establishing notability?

:See the message I  have just  left  on  his tp. Running  to  Aunty  ANI each time a user picks his nose doesn't help. The other point -  which  he succinctly  made in  his comments at  [[WT:NPP]] - also reflects several  comments by  others around the site that  since the new cool patrolling tool went live, there are a lot of users working there now who  appear to believe that reading  through the tutorial at [[WP:NPP]] isn't necessary. I've been campaigning  for years to  get NPP improved, and although the Foundation refuses to  acknowledge the core problems, they ''have'' at least given us the new patrolling interface, but I did warn about what a magnet it would be to new or less experienced users. What  will happen ultimately is that  page patrolling  will  be made into a user right and because of its special nature, the right will need one heck of a lot more clue than Rollbacker or Reviewer.

===From Go Phightins!===
Kudpung, I am completely aware that patrolling from the NPP backlog is what's recommended, and I try to. However in this case I was looking at "new editors contribs" under recent changes. I saw a mistake, fixed it, and when Fjozk came to my talk page I politely apologized, I explained how to resolve an edit conflict, I thanked him for his contributions, and asked him to come by if he had further questions. I assumed good faith. It was an honest mistake, one that I now am more careful about, and I just don't see why this has gotten so overblown. It was a single apostrophe. If people can get this riled up about an apostrophe, then I give up.

*No need to give up, he is new.  I went afterwards and gave a welcoming personal message and was rudely blown off, I didn't worry about it.  A little rudeness isn't enough to block, that is the key.  Hopefully he will settle in here and mellow out.  If not, then eventually he will get booted, but until then, it looks like he is a net plus for now.  This is what I talk about with civility, we have to make room for all kinds, including grumpy people.  Not everyone is "chipper", and just like the in real world, we have to tolerate ''a little'' rudeness here and there.  Best to just ignore mild rudeness, as we can't all be bundles of sunshine, but even grumpy people have skills and can be helpful.  Don't make me name names ;).

{{ec}}{{ec}} Wow, tryin' to  get  a word in  edgways on  my  own  tp ;) Well  'ere it  is: :I  agree entirely  that  this whole thing  has been blown up  out  of proportion. See the conversation  above with  AutomaticStrikeout. The message going  round the site at the moment is that the same signatures keep  appearing  on  messages at  ANI whether as plaintiffs or as uninvolved commentators. The only  names that  should be seen there with  any  regularity  are those of the admins - and I'm  sure you  can figure out  why  that  is. As for NPP, yes, it  is indeed recommended to  work  from  the back  of the queue, ''but'' paradoxically those articles are the hardest  to  patrol  because they  are the ones that the newbs and kids have left after going  for the low hanging fruit at the front of the queue. I  would prefer to  see the less experienced patrollers doing just  that: leaving  the tough pages for the experts to  deal  with. Almost everyone agrees that  the real  priority  is at  the front  of the queue because that's where the hoax, attack, vandal,  and copyvio  pages are easily  identified, and very  quickly  deleted. Fjozk made some very  valid points in  his posts at  [[WT:NPP]] -  do  check  out  the entire thread because he's got  the picture perfectly, it's just  a shame he has a caustic way of commenting. As regards to  incivility, if Arbcom  won't block serial offenders, how do  you  expect  us mere admins to risk  our reputations (and perhaps our tools) for blocking  anyone for something less? The best  way  to  handle people like that  is to  ignore them. It  usually  works. Once you  know your stuff really  well  at  NPP, you  can help us patrol the patrollers and correct the mess they  make.

== Breast Cancer Awareness ==

I don't take it upon myself to fix the world very often, but this article is seriously harmful. It needs to be completely scrapped and re-written or deleted altogether. I am very willing to work with somebody to re-write this article. If nobody else will, I would like to re-write the article myself. I will make it objective, have appropriate information, have good sources, etc (obviously different from the message I put on it). Please help me with this. I will speak to whoever I need to and put in as many complaints directly to Jimmy Wales's inbox as it takes if I have to (obviously a joke).

I am sorry if this comes off arrogant or generally crazy, but this article is not just a poor article - it is a problem. It is harmful for it to be visible to the public, and it is not appropriate for the purposes of wikipedia.

I appreciate whatever help you can give me.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/107.0.32.44|107.0.32.44]] ([[User talk:107.0.32.44|talk]]) 02:18, 25 October 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Assistance with my page ==

Hey Kudpung,

I just received notice about the deletion of the page I made. I saw your notes, "subject not important" to put in an encyclopedia. 

My ambition to start this page is well Im an American student studying my masters in Norway at BI Norwegian Business School.

The Alumni Association here enables students to meet with past alumni, to speak about jobs, mentoring, networking things like that.

I did my undergrad in the US, and the day I graduated I received an email from the alumni department at my school asking for donations.. 

WHY i made this page is, well i think this is one hell of a vision, instead of asking for money, they operate solely on funding from school, to benefit their former and current students. The closeness of the university to its former students is fantastic, their cooperation and everything is like nothing i have seen before, because it is a program that reaches out rather, asks for funding. 

I know alumni isnt the hottest of topics. But there is a page for Texas Tech Alumni Association, so i though that mine would be applicable and even more relevant. 

Please, could you assist me with recommendations, or help me get this posted.

Thank you very much

== User:Part of me 2 ==

Hi, there have been four warnings on this user's page since last month when we attempted an ANI report. Is there anything we can do at this point? RFC/U? [[User:Elizium23|Elizium23]] ([[User talk:Elizium23|talk]]) 18:13, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
:It's delicate because what  we have here is not  vandalism. [[User talk:Part of me 2|Part of me 2]] really  believes that  their edits are constructive -  they  are cetainly  not  vandalism  even if they  are largely  disruptive and hence I  would regret  having  to  impose a block, at  least  just  yet. I  think  probably  one solution would  be to  insist  on  an [[WP:Adopt|adoption  programme]]. Much  depends on  how such a message on  their talk  page is worded and because I  think  this is a young  user, our standard elocution may  be too  formal and intimidating. It  remains to  be seen however if there would be any  reaction  to  such  a suggestion  on  their talk  page. If not , then it  should be the subject  of (yet another)  discussion at  ANI. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 01:27, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
::Any reaction at all would be great. As it stands, this user has never used a talk page, in nearly 1500 edits logged.

== RE:Clerking ==
I am kinda at a loss, I've re-read the documentation here [[Template:Non-administrator observation]] as you suggested and I don't see what that documentation has anything to do with the amount of edits made. You made another comment a while back [[User talk:Mlpearc/Archive 11#Request|here]] which is more confusing, which comment do stand behind ? [[User talk:Mlpearc#Clerking|this one]] or [[User talk:Mlpearc/Archive 11#Request|this one]]. An editor pinged me in IRC and was upset because they thought they got me in trouble after seeing your comment (today) as they were the one that pointed me to [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Account creator#User:Titodutta]], I assured them they had nothing to do with your comment. After thinking about this awhile your comment might have been placed as "''a truly friendly reminder''" but frankly I think it's caused more problems than it apparently meant to save. [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions|WP:PERM]] are project pages not [[Wikipedia:Ownership of articles|owned]] by anyone, I don't see how my 600+ edits there has anything to do with you or [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions|WP:PERM]].

:I've already  apologised once, and there is obviously  no  risk  whatsoever of ''anyone'' being  sanctioned for posting  on  those pages. I  do  have a clear agenda there though: to discourage newbies and wannabe admins from  from  believing  that contributing  there may  be a step  towards recognition  for RfA,  and without  an nao  it  might  confuse users that  the decision  has been made by  an admin.  You  may  recall that  just  a while back before the CVUA was revamped, there was a huge spate of unnecessary  clerking and non-admin  decision  making. That  obviously  does not  apply  to  you when commenting  there. As far as I  understand, and as documented, '...but is not in the position to make any actions.' Perhaps I'm interpreting  that  too  literally. Nevertheless, it  would be nice if you could keep  your comments on  the same friendly  terms that  I employ - we ''both'' genuinely  have the best interests of Wikipedia at  heart.

Since you seem to be responding to queries in his stead, I was wondering if you could help me with something. Someone moved "[[A Picture is Worth a 1,000 Bucks]]" to "[[A Picture is Worth a Thousand Bucks]]". The user likely meant well, but the former is the episode's correct title.

:This doesn't  really  need admin  intervention, just  a gentle touch. The article talk  page is the best  place for a discussion before trying  to  revert  the move and that's where you  can perhaps prove what  the right  page name should be.

::I'm confused on both counts. When I attempted to move the page back, I got a message stating that the move had to be done by an administrator. As for discussion, the time for that was before the move. I'm trying to follow BRD here. The page was boldly moved, now I intend to revert, and then I'd be happy to engage in discusssion.

::::The page was moved without any prior discussion. I disagree that discussion is required before reverting to the long-standing version. The user boldly moved, I reverted, and now it should be discussed. Again, I have no doubt that the user's intentions were good, and discussion is of course always a good thing. But what you seem to be proposing is BDR, rather than BRD. In any case, the more I try to fix it, the more it's getting messed up. I absolutely did not do a cut-and-paste move, but it's entirely possible that I erred in some other way. If you could move the page back to its long-standing version, I would appreciate it. I'm afraid to keep messing with it. I moved it to "[[A Picture is Worth a 1000 Bucks]]", but I'm still unable to get it back to its original title: "[[A Picture is Worth a 1,000 Bucks]]" (the only difference being "1000" and "1,000").

Why did you delete my page Waterloo Road School (Greenford) when it was a reliable page about a fictional school set in Greenford west london  <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Burrs002|Burrs002]] ([[User talk:Burrs002|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Burrs002|contribs]]) 14:18, 28 October 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Thanks for stepping up (down?) ==

and dealing with my whinging and whining about the state of affairs at  [[Talk:Depictions of nudity]].  It seems so simple when ....... someone else does it.  Einar aka [[User:Carptrash|Carptrash]] ([[User talk:Carptrash|talk]]) 15:24, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

== [[User:Jordanalan]] ==

Why did you username-block this one? There is gross self-promotion going on and I was about to prepare a note for COI/N and to ask {{user0|MichaelQSchmidt}} whether any of these films were notable; Jordanalan may end up blocked for advertising (though, as we don't tell new users what WP is not for, it would be only fair to warn him first), but I don't see a problem with him using his own name. There was an earlier account {{user0|Jordanalan00}} but that has not edited since February so there isn't really a sock problem.

To illustrate the degree of self-promotion, I reverted [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Terminal_Bliss_(film)&diff=520346682&oldid=519863694 here] edits to one of his film articles which altered sourced statements that the film "''was panned by the critics''" and was "''a box-office flop''" to say, without sources, that it "''garnered rave reviews''" and "''went on to unprecedented success''"!

:Hi  John. I  username blocked him  because he is not  Jordan Alan. He is Jordan Alan's employee, and is thus impersonating another person. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 23:47, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

::Aha, I understand - I hadn't seen his post to RFPERM. I will carry on sorting out all the promotional edits and see what if anything should be saved. Cheers, [[User:JohnCD|JohnCD]] ([[User talk:JohnCD|talk]]) 00:01, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

== Am I faring well at New Page Patrolling? ==

Hello Kudpung. Can you please review my recent patrolling actions and tell me if I am doing good there. If that area is clean I will focus on working on patrolling of new pages. Thanking you, Dipankan001. @'''<span style="text-shadow:4px 4px 5px LightSkyBlue;">[[User:Dipankan001|<span style="color:#0C93EF;">Dipankan</span>]][[User talk:Dipankan001|<span style="color:#F87217;">Upgraded!</span>]] <sup>[[Special:Contributions/Dipankan001|Tag me!]]</sup></span>'''  06:09, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

== New articles? ==

Hi Kudpung! I would like to soon create articles Osoyoos Times and Oliver Chronicle, but am afraid it wouldn't pass [[WP:GNG]]. They are city newspapers, and i find some newpaper articles on the Osoyoos Times, including one by CBC News. May I ask for your input? Thanks so much, <span style="font-family:Impact;">[[User:TBrandley#top|TBr]][[User talk:TBrandley#top|and]][[Special:Contributions/TBrandley|ley]]</span> 00:51, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

:I'm  never optimistic about small local newspapers passing GNG. The CBS news source make the Osoyoos Times 'famous' for one event only, and the Oliver Chronicle website is down due to  having  been hacked. Best thing to  do is to look at Wikipedia articles about any small town newspapers and rate your chnaces.
