== What is the protocol for moving or deleting pages? ==

Way back when (it seems now) you greeted me on my page when I started my account. This question needs something besides the letter-of-the-law...perhaps something on the lines of social correctness. I've puzzled why there is often controversy about renaming pages. Apparently, some larger process is at work, but I can't quite understand why editors can be so passionate about this. Then, as I looked at a stub that I'm planning to expand, it occurred that there might be a right way and a wrong way to proceed. There is currently an article "X", a stub, with 20 words. A reasonable way to proceed would be to create two new articles "X (movie)" and "X (album)". Since the current article has almost no information, would it be renamed to "X (movie)" or deleted? (I'm not intending to contradict the existing information, but I am planning to completely rewrite it, since it wouldn't be suitable for the introduction to a long article.) I have the intimation that the stub article's creator might (who knows?) feel a certain "pride of place" at having created the stub. The stub hasn't been modified for almost a year, since it was created. Any thoughts? Guidance?  Thanks, [[User:Alpha Ralpha Boulevard|Alpha Ralpha Boulevard]] ([[User talk:Alpha Ralpha Boulevard|talk]]) 22:41, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

:Thanks for your comprehensive and quick answer! (which you left on my talk page). I was using "Article X" as a placeholder, because the situation is a little more complicated than the above description presents it. But the important things were the questions you answered. Your answers fall right in line with what's practical...that the article's original creator -- even a stub creator -- should "get credit" and "follow" the article when it's renamed.

:In a related situation, I decided not to modify an article at all. Awhile ago (answering your question to me about why I'd considered the option of deleting the article entirely), I came across a stub article on a subject I knew. The editor (who, on investigation, took great pride in the number of articles they have created) had gone to the official web site, paraphrased a couple sentences to create the stub, and left. But even those two sentences were to a degree incorrect. In that situation, in reworking the article, there was little alternative but to erase the existing text. I knew from reading their user Discussion page that they were likely to be defensive, even hostile, about changes to their work. At that point, I felt the editor had done something unfair. But my decision was to let the article sail on, untouched. The least amount of confrontation, but also, the least value to Wiki readers.

:Now that I've been with Wiki awhile, I have three or four articles that I've been working on for some time, but which aren't to the state where I'm ready to take the public "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune". The scenario I *really* don't want to be in: The day arrives when an article finally ready for posting, only for me to discover another brief article has already been added. It's not a matter of "credit" to me, it's just that one of the nice things is occasionally not having to consider every nuance of existing material before making changes of my own.

:I guess I thought if I was working on a "hot topic", the thing to do would be to add an article in skeleton format, then return to finish it. There does seem to be something of a Wiki predisposition that encourages editors to publish work that isn't polished. Which brings up my other question: At what point are articles likely to receive the most editorial attention? It seems that the "Random Article" function in the Navigation menu brings up articles that have been recently altered. Even clicking a few hundred times, I notice that some of the same, recent articles pop up. There are apparently various types of Wiki changes that alert other editors it might be worthwhile reviewing an article?

== Perhaps some more discussion is called for ==

I would appreciate you not contributing to the edit-warring that has plagued this issue of the Longbottom/Lovegood articles merging. There is a discussion currently ongoing in the HO wikiproject. Perhaps the irony of your actions is lost upon you, but your undoing the merge doesn't appear to have consensus. I would invite you to continue to discuss the matter without undoing the merge. You've boldly made an edit, they have been reverted. Now, let's discuss the matter until you find a consensus for undoing the merge. I've suggested an RfC to weigh in on the appropriateness of the merge. Maybe you'd care to discuss the merits of that? - [[User:Arcayne|<span style="color:black">'''Arcayne'''</span>]] [[User talk:Arcayne|<small><span style="color:gray">(<sup>'''cast a spell'''</sup>)</span></small>]] 10:34, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
== Deletion of copyvios ==

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you're not supposed to use the default edit summary when deleting copyvios as it can leave copyvio text in the deletion log (as here [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=UniQoptcs&action=edit&redlink=1]) ?

== Carr Site ==

A. The name was changed to its most readable order per the WP:NRHP style guide [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_National_Register_of_Historic_Places/Style_guide] 

B. There are several points here. 
*1.If you were to look up information about a site, out of the blue - you just decided to look it up, would
look at Smith, John, Site or John Smith Site? What is a normal search for you?
*2. However, if you do use last name first, I left the redirect. 
*3. BTW The reference noted is an unofficial site - it is not a government site
*4. That said, the National Register of Historic Places does indeed invert names (see [http://www.nps.gov/history/NR/publications/bulletins/nrb16a/nrb16a_III.htm])
*5. The inversion is internal only - are you going to tell me that this inversion is the official name? That the [[Elihu Root House]] is not the name because the NRHP calls it "Root, Elihu, House" ? (check ''all'' the references here). Is Hamilton College wrong for calling it the "Elihu Root House" instead of "Root, Elihu, House" as the NRHP does?
*6 That is why I rename as I find them. Most of the times, they're redlinks.  

C. This time it went bad. I went about the renaming badly and caused a bot to go on the prowl - for that I'm sorry.

D. I hope this explanantion helps.

== Deletion review for [[Leathermouth]] ==

You recently closed the [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Leathermouth|deletion debate]] for [[Leathermouth]] and deleted the article. I would like you to reconsider and undo the deletion because the article met the criteria for notability at [[Wikipedia:Notability (music)]]: "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable". Among the band's members were [[Frank Iero]] of [[My Chemical Romance]] and [[James Dewees]], who plays or played in multiple notable bands. Furthermore the page can not be redirected because there are two notable personalities. – [[User:Zntrip|Zntrip]] 03:30, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you removed the prod with the rationale "appear to be playing for FC Rapid Bucureşti".

:Er, I would say it was very uncontroversial - he clearly fails a key guideline, and the article had already been deleted once for the same reason. I've AfD'd this one, but please think twice before deprodding footballer articles again - as it's such a popular sport we get tonnes of fancruft, equating to tens of AfDs a week, which are mostly pointless and tiring.

== [[List of Twilight characters]] ==

The reasoning is that they should be included in the list, and not just in the small paragraph on the top, so the list is complete. I haven't been able to complete editing the Central Characters section so it looks better (I do think it's pretty messy right now), but it will look something like the Major Character section in [[Characters of Final Fantasy VII]]. I was also a little iffy on the mention of them having articles; saying outright that they have articles. I wasn't sure if it was against any policy in particular, though. Also, most of the pages, save for Bella, Edward, and possibly Jacob, will eventually be merged (probably after the BD hype cools down). They have no third-party sources or reception, and almost everything is in-universe. They are never mentioned in reviews and Meyer doesn't reveal any creation notes about them, so there is no way they could ever become a GA. I kept them in a Major Character section because it helps when merging, as I would already have an already developed section and all that I have to do is merge the non-repetitive information. I'll work on cleaning it up today so it doesn't appear so messy. Hope this helps, [[User:WhiteArcticWolf|WhiteArcticWolf]] ([[User talk:WhiteArcticWolf|talk]]) 17:37, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
:I probably won't end up merging Jacob:) I've worked on Bella's article, so that one at least has some reception and concept/creation notes. The real problem comes up when there aren't any interviews that mention him and such. Edward will probably make it because we have at least have something on him. I'm going to end up merging the other Cullen's pages, but will leave Bella, Edward, and Jacob; hopefully someone can help with the latter. All that I ask is to let me finish up with those merges and fix up that section of the list. Once I'm done, we can see where to go from there (what looks best). Is that fine?

::Thank you! I've tagged most of the character articles (except Bella, Edward, and Jacob) for merges.

I noticed that you closed this AfD after I had relisted it, and just wanted to ask why (as I'm relatively new to closing these).  My reason for relisting it was that the only comment was silly per [[WP:JNN]] and [[WP:JUSTAPOLICY]], being as it consisted only of "per [[WP:NOTE]]".  I'm not upset and wanting to march off to deletion review, but I am curious.  [[User:Falcon Kirtaran|--Falcon Darkstar Kirtaran]] ([[User talk:Falcon Kirtaran|talk]]) 10:12, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
