== Article deletion (C. James Block/Alexander D. Farris) ==

Dear sir/madame,

I believe it is inappropriate to suggest the deletion of the aforementioned pages.  These two journalists are well-known in Michigan, United States and seem to be well-sourced enough for the length of the articles.

Thank you,

== Edits to Lambeth wards ==

Hi 

Thanks for your edits to the little project I am working on currently - that of adding all 23 local government electoral wards in Lambeth. Please could you make them all consistent in titling - currently there is Coldharbour Ward but the rest are x ward and Larkhall ward is listed as larkhall (ward)

== "Mae's Lost Empire" page deletion ==

Hi could you explain why this page has been deleted?  This isn't just another band page they're a signed act with an album out on worldwide distribution and management.  Album's available in shops, people are going to want to know about these guys.

:Hello. The article was deleted by an admin, who cited in the log "‎...Article about a band, singer, musician, or musical ensemble, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject".  The band don't appear to be notable yet, as there's no significant coverage of them online from [[WP:Reliable sources]].  But if you can find some reliable secondary sources showing that they are notable, I'd be happy to help you re-create the article.

Hi MuffledThud, just dropping by to make three quick points:
#I didn't close the debate.
#I was not criticizing you, merely offering a piece of advice. I am ''sincerely sorry'' if you took it as criticism, as that was not how it was meant.
#However, please also note that if a page can be deleted under CSD, then it's quicker and better to do so, rather than subjecting it to a AfD debate (that probably could have been [[WP:SNOW|snow'd]] anyway)
Kindest regards, [[User:Spitfire|Spitfire]]<sup>[[User talk:Spitfire|Tally-ho!]]</sup> 20:52, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
:You're right, you didn't close the debate. Apologies for the misunderstanding: it's been done to me before, but that's not your fault. [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 20:54, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
::No problem, that's happened to me too. Kind regards, [[User:Spitfire|Spitfire]]<sup>[[User talk:Spitfire|Tally-ho!]]</sup> 21:05, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
:It's normal practice to close an AfD per G7 if the author clearly requests deletion, and nobody else objects to deletion. Nothing was unusual about this case, so I closed the discussion.

::Quite right: I was arguing that page-blanking is not acceptable for the purposes of closing an AFD, but explicitly requesting deletion (e.g. in an edit summary or a one-liner in the article, etc.) is an acceptable way.  But I'm quoting the AFD template, not policy, so I could be wrong about this. [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 23:02, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

==Vajazzling==
Yeah, you could have knocked me over with a feather, as the saying goes.  The things people will say on television constantly astound me.  Needless to say, I am in 100% agreement with your impulse to tag  this as a made-up word.  Frankly, I wish it HAD been a hoax.  If the prod doesn't remain, let's agree to AfD this ASAP.

[[User:RogueX10|RogueX10]] Ok, not sure I'm doing this right, but I found some solid refrences for this. Decided to leave out the pictures this time. Personally, as a woman, waxing and/or shaving is enough. Why do we need another step? But I guess if your business is looking beutiful, Why Not? 

:I've removed the advertising material that the above-noted editor added.  I guess I'm just conflicted about whether this needs to go to AfD.  It's certainly unbelievably vulgar, but the number of Google hits is giving me pause to think.  Is this a peculiar case of [[WP:BLP1E]], where Jennifer Love Hewitt is entirely responsible for this neologism and it will immediately die once her book tour is done?  Dare I suggest that she is trying to promote her book by talking about decorating her vagina on national television?  Of course there are now "salons" that will apply these pieces of glass for you and are willing to advertise that service, but you can find a commercial enterprise that's willing to do just about anything in the name of beauty.  I just don't know.  I surely have respect for the idea that Wikipedia is not censored, but at the same time I have to admit I don't WANT this to be a word.  Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.  [[User:Accounting4Taste|Accounting4Taste]]:<small>[[User talk:Accounting4Taste|talk]]</small> 17:42, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

:::A co-worker tells me that this concept has been mentioned in a free paper that they hand out on the transportation system here, and the concept (although not the specific word) and its originator was known to a number of them, so I may have to swallow my distaste on this one.  I guess part of my problem is that I don't think it's fair that Jennifer Love Hewitt gets to single-handedly add a stupid invented word to the English language when I delete things all the time posted by kids in primary school who have come up with silly names for body parts or functions; how am I ever going to tell them they can't add those neologisms to Wikipedia?.  Perhaps I'll have to settle for cherishing the belief that it may well be the most significant thing she will ever accomplish.  BTW, above, I should have said "talking on national television about decorating her vagina".  The way I expressed myself was .... BRRRRrrrrrr.  Don't even go there.

A tag has been placed on [[:UHY Hacker Young]] requesting that it be [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedily deleted]] from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]]. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the [[WP:Your first article|guide to writing your first article]].

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to the top of the article ('''just below''' the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[Talk:UHY Hacker Young|the article's talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|for biographies]], [[WP:WEB|for web sites]], [[WP:BAND|for bands]], or [[WP:CORP|for companies]].

== Stupid questions? ==

Hello,
I just added the Tieto Engineering Toolbox page into wiki. I read through the links behind the wiki tags and I fully understand the meaning and resoning behind those issues. Question 1: What is the biggest issue of the three tags? Question 2. How long time I have to correct those incidents before the page is deleted? As you can see, my concern is the page to not get deleted. So, please, give me advice how to a) keep the page in wiki and b) how to edit those pages in that manner which satisfies wiki standards. I think, the b) is tackled as I send those editions to you before publishing for validating?

Hi Muffled,

I've removed your speedy deletion request from [[Brent "Tha Bones" Jones]], which you tagged under [[Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#G2|G2 reasoning]], as I do not see how the article is a test page. The page has been retagged as a hoax (perhaps you meant to tag it as a hoax, but accidentally chose the option above it). Just wanted to give you a little heads-up.

== Marking pages as patrolled ==

Hi there. I thought I'd stop by and inform you that it's usually customary to patrol newpages after you've tagged them for speedy deletion, the reason being so that someone doesn't look at the article only to find out that it's already tagged. There is a link at the bottom of the unpatrolled page when you navigate to the page from [[Special:NewPages]] itself, and if you plan on tagging it for CSD it's usually wise to click this link. There is also a [[WP:TW|userscript]] that does this automatically, which can be turned on in your preferences under "Gadgets".

The draft of [[The Latin Phonetic Method of Shanghainese]] (LPMS) was published for the first time in 2001; its latest version was decided after a couple of revises and updates in 2003. It is the first Shanghainese phonetic notation which had been popularized on internet and the only Shanghainese phonetic notation designed based on Western linguistic spelling traditions. In 2004, the first [[Chinese input methods for computers | Shanghainese Input Methods for Computers]] complying with LPMS was developed and formally published.

== Notability Schools ==

Hi MuffledThud. Just want to ask what are the currect thoughts on elementary schools articles with no sign of individual notability such as [[Country Oaks Elementary]]? I would have considered redirecting this. [[User:Polargeo|Polargeo]] ([[User talk:Polargeo|talk]]) 15:45, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hello there. There was an attempt at this: see [[WP:Notability (schools)]].  My own opinion is that all established schools are likely to be notable, and any defunct ones that were around for a significant length of time.  This view isn't universally shared though, so I'd like to see some consensus around a new proposal for notability guidelines.

{{Talkback|rgbroitman}} Appreciate all of our helpful input as I'm new at this.  In terms of integrating into the National Wildlife Federation Page, there is and has always been a separate page for NWF's other pub Ranger Rick so would seem to make sense to have separate page for the flagship publication too.  Also too, we are gearing up for our 50th anniversary. So plan to put more history in this article.  Should interest people who have read the publication through the years.

Thanks and well done for creating a page on Tallulah - I was amazed and delighted to find one. I didn't think anyone else on earth would remember that one.

I've actually been looking for a copy of Tallulah for years, I only have a scratchy copy on old audiotape. Do you have a copy that you might be able to stick on a CD and send me? Or even perhaps a digital version?

==Userfying autobiographical material==
First off, let me say thanks for your kindness and thoroughness in taking autobiographical material from articlespace and moving it to user space.  It's certainly the policy-dictated way to go, but many people don't bother; I have noticed in the past that you're quite diligent about it, and wanted you to know that it didn't go unnoticed.  What I wanted to suggest is that you NOT leave a redirect in place when you do it.  I don't know if there is a specific policy that covers this or not; my feeling is that it's not crucial to save the two elements of the page's history (its creation in articlespace and its move to userspace) and it simply makes a redirect that has to be deleted, which is extra administrative work.  If you think I'm wrong, and that it's important to preserve the history of those two elements for the user, of course you should continue to leave the redirect in place; it will be an example of the kind of scrupulous attention to detail that I have noticed is your hallmark.  (If you ever decide to undertake an RfA, please do let me know; I'd like to comment in it.)

::Hmm.  Yes, I noted that you always tag the redirect for deletion, for which thanks (I end up tidying the ones that are not so scrupulously tagged, hence the barnstar).  I'm afraid I'm not sure of how this differs for non-admins; my examination of the "move this page" function shows there's a tick-box below the box where one explains the reason for the move.  If ticked, it says "Leave a redirect behind".  It may be that you ticked one long ago and, as I understand it, such a setting persists until removed; it may be that you just haven't noticed it.  Please let me know if I am making an error based on the admin access; if I've suggested you do something that isn't possible, of course, my apologies.

Okay, firstly, [[Simplelinux]] is a remastered version of Slax. The quality of the distro is because of its Mini version, only 90MB in size but user can do the same that Slax did (eg, removable apps et cetera) The developer of this distribution is me, however, there is a numerous people willing to help me, then made a group called "Simplelinux Foundation". 

The linux kernel in the package (both versions) is using Slax (and Slackware also), however, a lot of improvements (addition os system resources/libraries has been included, and unneeded resources is removed. We also compile and make the resources, so applications can easily being installed.

I hope it can be in this encyclopedia just like [[Slax]] etc... I hope it won't be deleted because its give meaning to us (AND MALAYSIANS), every Malaysians here are started talking about the distro which is produced by Malaysians. One day, it will comes in dual language, Malay and English. We even in project of making an open source Media Player from scratch (HelixCommunity player open source).

Might I Add That, The Jamiatu Muslim Mindanao Page Referred To In A Previous "talk" has yet to be rectified of its copy right infringement and with countless orphaned pages clogging up wikipedia - why has this gotten to this point?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_G14 has less then a sentence in it, WHILE my proposed page was more extensive and detailed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KBFP_%28AM%29 is surely a regional/obscure article and once again less detail then my page.

:Please have a read of [[WP:OTHERSTUFF]]: it's not hard to find examples of articles that need expansion or deletion on Wikipedia, but the length of those articles is not what makes their subjects notable or non-notable. You can of course expand or tag [[HMS G14]] and [[KBFP (AM)]] for improvement.  Re-writing [[Jamiatu Muslim Mindanao]] is an excellent idea, and would solve their copyright problem, but I have no expertise in that area myself. [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 11:31, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Notability, You Can Ask Anyone Who Was On The HMS G14 If They Note It and They Will Say Yes. Likely So You Can Ask Any Member of The Dreaming Dog Appreciation Society and They Could Note It. There Is A Bug In The System and It's Called Relative Notability.

I've seen pages sit in a vandalised status for over a year. Keep up the good fight everyone!!!! [[User:Wiki libs|Wiki libs]] ([[User talk:Wiki libs|talk]]) 15:27, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
:Anna should be the project manager where I work: my workplace closely resembles the edit history of [[Ian Halperin]].  [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 15:33, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

:If you are his manager, then you really ought to log in as your account [[User:Listarmadur]].  As noted at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tómas Davíð]], the main issue is notability per [[WP:MUSICBIO]]. If you have any further information about Tómas Davíð that would support his notability for inclusion in Wikipedia, please let me know and I'll help add it to the article. Thanks, [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 20:55, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Oh, allright!! So we should just add more legitamate references and detailed info about him to make the page good for wikipedia?  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/68.189.43.141|68.189.43.141]] ([[User talk:68.189.43.141|talk]]) 21:55, 25 February 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Not quite: you need to show why the subject of [[Tómas Davíð]] is notable per [[WP:MUSICBIO]].  That notability should then be supported by references from [[WP:Reliable sources]].  But lots of detailed info doesn't on its own necessarily make him [[WP:NOTABLE]]. Thanks, [[User:MuffledThud|MuffledThud]] ([[User talk:MuffledThud#top|talk]]) 09:36, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

==deleted article==
Hello there, thanks for the notice on [[Myagi Australia]]. Sadly, I was too late, the article was deleted. I didn't even get a chance to put my case. The article did meet the notability criteria, sources, references for a an Australian company. Well, the administrators should also delete [[Kogan Technologies]] as well because it is similarly based article on an Australian company.  it was just a company stub and these stubs are very common in wikipedia.[[User:Takamaxa|Takamaxa]] ([[User talk:Takamaxa|talk]]) 08:38, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
:I had a hunt online before nominating [[Tyagi Australia]] for deletion, and couldn't find any significant coverage of it from [[WP:Reliable sources]] that showed it was a notable company per [[WP:COMPANY]].  All I could find was [[WP:Primary sources]] like press releases. If I've missed something out, let me know and I'll help you re-write it. I notice that whil the [[Kogan Technologies]] article cites significant coverage from secondary sources, at the moment it needs re-writing for [[WP:NPOV]], so I'll get onto that now.
