It is definitely not marketing or anything. I am trying create a separate article that discusses what trading platforms accomplish. And list the biggest players in the market. Please give it some time. I promise the article will be 100% neutral. |

About Deleting Modern Red
How can I indicate how or why the subject is notable or not? I personaly know the band and they asked me to make a page. I have linked their pages to the page along with pictures and videos of the band, which I have also created. I really want this page to stay, what do I need to do?
Referancing: Robbinex
Hi, you recently proposed that the article "Robbinex" be deleted because it was a non-notable company. However this is not the case but it is difficult to prove this because of a lack of wikipedia information on Mergers and Acquisitions. For example, Robbinex was founded in 1974 and has several offices across north america but it is hard for one to find this notable without knowing that the average lifespan for this type of business is under 18 months and average size is 1-2 employees (which the wikipedia article on mergers and acquisitions does not mention among other things) . Also, it is difficult to mention the comapany's notable contributions to mergers and acquisitions academia considering that the section itself doesn't have anything notable on this field. Not even a mention of some of the large organizations that widely teach M&A practice at that! So, my question is, is there a way around rebuilding/bringing up to speed, your M&A section in order to reference (and thus keep) my article?
Please reverse deletion: Intolerance Records
The Wiki article about Intolerance Records was removed and the reason cited was that "the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable". It also said something about how the only contributor was user IntoleranceRecords. Well the article was only up for about 30 seconds prior to your speedy deletion. How are any other contributors supposed to see the article when it's deleted so quick? That was extremely, rude by the way, deleting something that took me six hours to make, simply because you've never heard of it. I was in the process of making all the pages, citing the importance of each project. One of the bands on my label, Slugwrench, has done remixes for Skinny Puppy, another band on my label, Dog Vs Cat has worked with Duma Love from Sean Lennon's band Cibo Matto (You can read about Cibo Matto on Wiki.). Have you ever heard of Skinny Puppy or Sean Lennon? (You can read about Skinny Puppy and Sean Lennon on Wiki.) Did you try using a search engine to search for the record label?! Or how about our star act Slugwrench? Google currently cites about 4,140 results for Slugwrench (and used to have over 12,000), and Intolerance Records over one million, but I guess that's not enough. Slugwrench is back in the studio recording their second album after a ten year hiatus! Slugwrench just signed a major deal with Some Bizarre Records to have a track on their new Some Bizarre Compilation. (You can read about Some Bizarre Records on Wiki.) That's important news. My record company has been around since 1992! I read your guidelines and I read Wikipedia's guidelines and what I'm trying to do here does not violate any rules.
I was in the process of adding all the bands on the label to Wiki along with their individual achievements. The record labels notable achievement is having the bands on the label! You deleted it before I even had a chance to add the band wiki pages!
This is ridiculous. I was always a Wiki fan in the past. Avid user and recommend often to others, but this situation has left a sour taste in my mouth. Please let me know what I need to do here or if you will admit you were wrong and please undelete the page (as you were the one who deleted it) and there is no back up anywhere. Thanks.
Deletion of PoKéQuesT
According to the Criteria for Speedy Deletion Page, as well as the Notability page; this article (PoKéQuesT) did not meet the criteria for Speedy Deletion. As quoted on the Criteria for Speedy Deletion Page, you would have deleted this article (PoKéQuesT for the following reason)
* Non-notable subjects with their importance asserted: Articles that have obviously non-notable subjects are still not eligible for speedy deletion unless the article "does not assert the importance or significance of its subject". If the article gives a claim that might be construed as making the subject notable, it should be taken to a wider forum. However, articles with only a statement like "This guy was like so friggin' notable!" can be deleted for lacking context, because it gives no context about the subject.
However, that reason is listed as a Non-criteria, per the following:
Sometimes speedy deletion criteria are applied to articles that they do not and were not intended to apply to; also, rules that are not speedy deletion rules are often mistakenly used to justify speedy deletion. This section aims to clarify some of the frequently used "non-criteria" that are commonly cited but are not sufficient, by themselves, to justify speedy deletion. These are not rules and intended only to be commonly-understood interpretations of the criteria above.
Please, restore this article (PoKéQuesT).
Notability
I'm not saying that the article was not Notable; (and when the project becomes more notable I will recreate the page); however I do not believe your actions followed those set by the Wikipedia Guidelines. And the Notability remark is partially questionable because it only has notability guidelines for websites; bands; and groups of people; none of which the article (PoKéQuesT) was about.
Question Regarding Deletion
The article Your Favorite Band was deleted by you. This band has participated in the UCSD Sun God Festival, which is one of the more prominent musical events that take place in the area and the biggest musical event at UCSD. The band has also been the subject of review by multiple independent sources. Does this not qualify as notability? They seem at least as notable as fellow San Diego artist Long Live Logos. Steve Rowe 06:50, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Question Regarding Deletion
The article Life Fitness was deleted by you. I was not the author, but thought it should have stayed, as the company is certainly very notable. Adrade 00:40, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Question Regarding Deletion
The article about Troy Clegg was deleted as i did not point out notability, however troy clegg is one of the tallest NCAA football players and a member of the 2006 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Champion hampton pirates. please let me know what i have to do to prevent the deletion of this page.
How do i properly cite him? he is on NCAA rosters and the schools website.
ok and what about the height though, they do point out his height, and he is one of the tallest NCAA players, im actually trying to prove he is the tallest, he is actually 6'10" now, and im trying to find someone taller on other rosters.
Question Regarding Deletion
Hi, this is in reference to the article on easyscript speed writing. I've read your notes and was wondering what you would suggest I do to the article to make it valid. The technique is a valid form of note taking / short hand. Should I append this information to an existing article (speedwriting, note taking?) I believe I have found a few references for the topic that I could incorporate. Also, since other techniques have their own articles such as shorthand and teeline shorthand, wouldn't it be ok for this particular method to have it's own article? I particularly have an interest because of my work with individuals with deaf/blindness disorders and I think this method could be beneficial to that community researching wikipedia for options. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I want a reply
Once again I'm here to bring your attention to a probable mistake you did. I think you mistook my creating of the article Dreamviews with vandalism. You gave me a warning, threatening to block me if I continued, but I only did one edit, and I don't even know why the article was deleted after all.
Will I have to bring this matter to another sysop? I need to know why my page was deleted. If there's no reason, then it shouldn't have been speedily deleted.
Hope for hearing from you,
Kromoh 18:12, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
---
I don't know if you did indeed read my edit, but I included sources proving the site to have more than 12,000 mmbers. It is for sure a meeting point to the topic of lucid dreaming (you can check the corresponding wikibook for backup). Mind me asking why you didn't explain that on MY talk page, and jus tgave me a warning? I don't think that is fair at all.
Kromoh 18:17, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
---
Well I believe that is mere coincidence. I did read the warning of the page been deleted before, but since its talk page was empty and no explanation was given on the delete logs I saw no reason why I should not do it.
being it an hour or two years after being deleted, I believe I have the right for an explanation. I'm not obliged to read the talk pages of every user I see.
Kromoh 18:24, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Short Attention Gamer
Could you please tell me what I can do so that Short Attention Gamer does not get deleted? I don't understand what was wrong with the article. Me5000 21:50, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

deletion question
I was just wondering why you deleted the "Media Optimization" article that I posted yesterday, August 1st. Your response would help me not make the same mistakes in future articles. Thank you. Msukach 14:27, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
clarification
Thank you for your response. I still don't quite see how a link to an analytical article is spam just because it connects to a company website. After all, the voice was neutral, and no individual company was promoted. Even so, I would understand how it could be perceived that my article on Media Optimization was self promotion, except for the existence of articles like "Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization," which has been marked as an advertisement but not deleted. Could you explain to me exactly how the criteria work? Because I have seen numerous informative articles whose value has not been diminished by the location of the articles from which they cite. Was the link the only problem with my contribution, or was there anything in the text of the article also? Thanks again! Msukach 15:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Reliable sources
The source is perfectly reliable. If you watch it you will see that it is updated frequently. It is vandalism to destroy something without discussion beforehand in life, is it not?JPBarrass 16:08, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- You have very odd ideas.JPBarrass 16:08, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Copyright violation
Hello NawlinWiki,
I wonder why you didn't delete the Top World Cup Soccer Team Performance article, because imho this is a copyright violation to the GFDL (especially 4B) we use here. User:Kr2kewl "created" this article by copying the content of FIFA World Cup team rankings without the mention of the original authors ([1], [2]). Strictly speaking the FIFA World Cup team rankings article is also a copyright violation to FIFA World Cup, the mention of the source (at the bottom of the article) instead of the original authors normally isn't sufficient. --Oxymoron83 00:15, 3 August 2007 (UTC) There can't be a copyright violation from copying a Wikipedia article, because Wikipedia content is not copyrighted -- it's under the GFDL, which allows free reuse.
- Wikipedia content allows a free reuse under the terms of the GFDL, that's not contested. But the GFDL requires the mention of the original authors (Point 4B, as I wrote above). As the user didn't do that, he violated the GFDL, and so the copyright violation has to be deleted, I think? --Oxymoron83 02:36, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Deleted bio
Hi NawlinWiki,
Did you already delete this article [3]? If so, it's back. Blatant promotion, and most of the text was simply lifted from Rembrandt's bio, with names and titles changed. Thanks for your attention, JNW 02:20, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I recognized the the text from Rembrandt, because I had written and edited some of it last year--odd to see it so misappropriated. Cheers, JNW 03:20, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Lucy Blacklock is real and she has had 4 number one hits I should know cause im her biggest fan !!! Lucythegr8-hehe 02:28, 3 August 2007 (UTC) xx
Please reverse deletion - Wi-Fi array
Please repost the Wi-Fi array article -- Wi-Fi Array is an industry term and is being used by several technical experts from Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc. As the article states, it is a wireless network computing device that incorporates multi wi-fi radios. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
I used the Xirrus Wi-Fi Array as an example just like numerous other articles (i.e. Dell listed on the Access point article, etc). If access point is allowed to be posted, than so should Wi-Fi array. It should not be excluded just because it is not as widely known as the access point.
By the way, user Aamrod who tagged this article "speedy deletion" is a fraudulent user. Alan Amrod is the VP of Xirrus and did not request this. Obviously someone else (perhaps a competitor to Xirrus) created the username and tagged every article referencing Xirrus. Seems like vandalism to me.
Regards. Jlmerrill 03:45, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Google search of the term Wi-Fi Array goes for a couple of pages of Xirrus only or Xirrus Advertising, News releases, paid for articles, etc. And as the http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0EIN/is_2006_Sept_18/ai_n16728885 press release shows Xirrus claims the patent on the Wi-Fi Array! If Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, etc., are talking about it its because your outbound marketing people are doing their jobs. But you knew that because you are one of them, in fact you work for Alan Amrod.
We get most the terms we use as a society in this same fashion -- someone develops it, then someone adopts it. Creating a NPOV article on a product or tachnology being used by thousands of people and organizations is not spam. Jlmerrill 21:04, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
User Aamrod has never made any claims to be or not be an employee of Xirrus or any other competitor but Jlmerril seeks to appear an innocent bystander "educator" rather than a Xirrus employee. Which user is fraudulent? Aamrod 07:48, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Nor did I. Jlmerrill 21:04, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Wi-Fi controller
Please repost the Wi-Fi controller article -- Wi-Fi controller is an industry term used by all industry experts and customer (i.e. Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc). As the article states, it is a wireless network computing device that controls multi wi-fi radios. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted, so I thought I would post a few of them.
I used the Xirrus Wi-Fi Controller as an example just like numerous other articles (i.e. Dell listed on the Access point article, etc). If access point is allowed to be posted, than so should Wi-Fi array. It should not be excluded just because it is not as widely known as the access point.
Regards. Jlmerrill 03:48, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
One of the requirements for inclusion in wikipedia is that the subject be notable and of wide interest. If so then it should have verifiable independent references, be written from a neutral point of view, etc. Are you claiming notoriety by virtue of its insignificance?
Aamrod 07:52, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
There's that sarcasm again. I am claiming significance of Wi-Fi Controller (also known as wireless controller, Wi-Fi controller, and wireless switch) based on millions of customers, analysts, and associations throughout the world using it (IEEE, Wi-Fi Alliance, ITU, etc all use the term). It would have been more appropriate to create a conversation about this page to verify its significance than delete something you don't know. Jlmerrill 21:29, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Wireless switch
Please repost the Wireless switch article -- Wireless switch is an industry term and is being used by several technical experts from Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc. As the article states, it is a wireless network computing device that that acts much like a wireless switch...which remains listed. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
If wired switch is allowed to be posted, than so should wireless switch. It should not be excluded just because it is not as widely known as the wired switch.
Regards. Jlmerrill 03:51, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Wi-Fi threat sensor
Please repost the Wi-Fi threat sensor article -- Wi-Fi threat sensor is an industry term and is being used by several technical experts from Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc. As the article states, it is a wireless network computing device that is deployed to monitor the RF environment for threat such as roque access points, etc. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
Regards. Jlmerrill 03:57, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Integrated access points
Please repost the Integrated access point -- Integrated access point is an industry term and is being used by several technical experts from Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc. As the article states, it is a series of access points or radios integrated into a single product. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
By the way, user Aamrod who tagged this article "speedy deletion" is a fraudulent user. Alan Amrod is the VP of Xirrus and did not request this. Obviously someone else (perhaps a competitor to Xirrus) created the username and tagged every article referencing Xirrus. Seems like vandelism to me.
Regards. Jlmerrill 04:02, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
An educator should know its spelled vandalism.
This is a professional site used for educating readers. Though I appreciate you correcting vandalism, please refrain from using acerbic statements. By the way, "its" is spelled "it's" when used as a contraction for "it is", "encylopedic" is spelled "encyclopedic", the possessive of who is "whose" not "who's", etc. Jlmerrill 20:18, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Aamrod is a spooky coincidence I agree but I don't think that users ever claimed to be Alan Amrod nor to speak for Xirrus. Yes I did create the name and did attempt to erase obvious spam as many many editors do on here and as we are encouraged to do on the welcome page. No I am not a competitor employee. Yes I do seek to be anonymous when dealing with litigious commercial companies.
I'll take your word for it, though I remain skeptical as the coincidence is hard to swallow. Jlmerrill 20:18, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
I didn't tag all Xirrus pages, I tagged a whole set of self-referencing pages who's history showed they had all been created in the last few days by a single user who only listed contribs are those spam pages.
Aamrod 07:52, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
I intended to grow this article over the coming month with more text and citations as many other articles do. I'll be sure to add them when I repost. Jlmerrill 20:18, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Mutli-sector antenna system
Please repost the Multi-sector antenna system article -- Multi-sector antenna system is an industry term used by several technical experts from Craig Mathias, NetworkWorld, NetworkComputing, Interop, eWeek, CNET, etc. As the article states, it is an alternative technology to omni-directional antenna systems -- both are Wi-Fi RF systems and need clarification for users. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
Regards. Jlmerrill 04:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
And as a Xirrus employee you always use answers cut and pasted from the sales literature, which is why this is spam. Aamrod 07:26, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Spam is not defined as "cut and paste from the sales literature" -- which this was not. Multi-sector antenna system is used throughout the wireless industry -- cellular, Wi-Fi, etc. Jlmerrill 21:38, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Multi-radio access point
Please repost the Multi-radio access point -- Multi-radio access point is an industry term and is being used by everyone in the industry -- analysts, vendors, customers, etc. As the article states, it is a series of access points or radios integrated into a single product - also known as an Integrated access point. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
Regards. Jlmerrill 04:10, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Multi-channel MAC
Please repost the Multi-channel MAC article as it is an industry term and is being used by everyone in the industry. This is a relatively new technology that incorprated numerous MACs into one. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
Regards. Jlmerrill 04:12, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion: Reference Poster
Please repost the Reference Poster article as it is an term used by multiple industries as explained in the article. Just about every vendor, association, etc use these reference posters to explain complicated topics to customers and students -- it is not a vendor product. As an Educause Association member/educator, I am constantly being asked about this and other Wi-Fi terms which I recently posted.
Regards.

Again
Hi Again Nawlin,
It's back: [4]. Thanks, JNW 04:33, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Please reverse deletion - Xirrus
OK, seems like everything relating to Xirrus in Wikipedia was deleted -- why?
As an employee in the marketing dept. that wouldn't be a good thing to tell your boss.
Aamrod 07:57, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
It was written to give a basis of knowledge for those reading about various Wi-Fi technologies (Wi-Fi threat sensor, Wi-Fi array, Multi-radio access point, etc).
All of which are Xirrus trademarked, copyrighted, patent pending terms and technologies. This does not make this a neutral industry/technology encylopedic article. Its commercial spam.
Aamrod 07:57, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Incorrect again. They are not all Xirrus trademarked, copyrighted, or patent pending terms -- please check your facts. Even if they were, that does not constitute spam. There are thousands of terms in Wikipedia that are trademarked, copyrighted, and patented by various organization – Adobe, Apple, Cisco, Microsoft, Kraft Foods, Ford, etc.
Jlmerrill 21:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
This article was written like all the other high-tech industry companies I found in Wiki including Intel, Cisco, Microsoft, Juniper Networks, Stamps.com, etc, etc.
As mentioned before, user Aamrod who tagged this article "speedy deletion" is a fraudulent user. Alan Amrod is the VP of Xirrus and did not request this. Obviously someone else, most likely a competitor to Xirrus by creating the username and tagged every article referencing Xirrus for deletion. Seems like vandelism to me.
Please reverse -- many thanks:-)
You are welcome
Aamrod 07:57, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Deleted Articles
Thank you for your reply. I understand and agree I probably referred to Xirrus too much. I will re-post based on your comments.
I was not able to grab the content before the articles were deleted. Are you able and would you please retrieve the text from these pages for me?
Integrated access points, Multi-channel MAC, Multi-radio access points, Multi-sector antenna system, Reference posters, Wi-Fi array, W-Fi array controller, Wi-Fi controller, Wi-Fi threat sensor, and Xirrus.
Many thanks!
Improperly deleted redirect
I understand this was tagged for deletion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Undelete/Sonic_3D:Flickies%27_Island
But this is based on a plausible typo. Therefore the tagging violated Wikipedia:Speedy deletion, which stated that redirects may be deleted if the typos are implausible.
I asked the nominator to use Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion. WhisperToMe 06:17, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Regarding the speedy deletion of this page. The page has been split into separate articles, List of Aston Villa captains and List of Aston Villa managers. As such it is now a redundant copy of these two pages. It was requested in this peer review to be split and then deleted. Is there a category for this speedy deletion or do i need to prod it?

Corporate rock stars
Hey i was gonna finish making it encyclopedic, as ive heard about it from a few people, more along the lines of what it is and not the company (you gotta admit making executives try to rock has a comedic element) it would be done in the same manner as kleenex referring to tissue paper.. or ipod to a mp3 player. i just sorta forgot to finish the article.. ill get too it sooner or later Rankun 07:59, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
Wikicodia - Why the deletion
I don't know what to change to the article Wikicodia in order not to delete it.
If you check the last version before deleting you'll find a big difference, I've removed all things you told me to remove, I've read the about speedy deletion. So I tried to make it very neutral and removed any Spam like section.
So why is the delete again?
Question Regarding Deletion of Across-the-Board
Why did you delete en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Across-the-Board_Blog? This site is relevant and significant. Google 'Across the Boards' and you'll find it as the first natural listing. Notice the site has a PR 5 rating. The relevancy and impact the online community is notable. Furthermore, the authors (Ramsey) is a lifecaster on Justin.TV. He is live on www.justin.tv/ramsey
- actually number one is a exhibition around the world in 18 games from the British museum, but this is besides the point, doing a quick google search yields 3 results, firstly the site itself, secondly a site where blogs are listed for free, and thirdly wikipedia itself despite it no longer existing as a page. i agree with narlin, its not notable enough.--KerotanTalk Have a nice day :) 09:55, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Frank Dalby Davison
Hey, what happened. I just spent an hour working on an article on Frank Dalby Davison (I had categories for it, a reference, two headings) and you deleted it under my nose. How could that happen? I'm completely confused. Sterry2607 12:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Something peculiar happened. I had a page in front of me that I had developed - it had plenty of content but it was deleted as I worked on it. It was all there, I previewed it - several paras - and then when I saved it it disappeared. This is a bit heartbreaking. Just after I started working on it I think I managed to save it with almost nothing in it (that minimal data your saw) BUT I just kept working on expanding it. While I was doing that you deleted it? How can that be? How can an article be deleted while it is being worked on? I assume it's not recoverable? Sterry2607 12:52, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- I guess I understand but I'm disturbed. I think it was deleted as I was working on it. One minute there was the speedy deletion tag and next minture there was a statement saying it had been deleted. All this happened while I was previewing my content, and within an hour of my starting to work on it. I guess I don't understand why something - even something minimal - is deleted within an hour of its being created. Isn't there some time lag allowed to let people develop articles? Sterry2607 13:01, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Again thanks for the response. I'm feeling quite frustrated with how things work here (and this is no particular reflection on you). I feel that the hand is too quick - that people like me who are pretty new and haven't quite worked out how best to work are, in a sense, 'attacked' - that's how it feels - within minutes of doing something. I noticed another person had a speedy deletion tag put on 15 mins (!) after they created the article. In my case though it was worse - I created it (saved it in error in fact - my fingers slipped and I noticed it had been saved by mistake but didn't realise that anything would happen that quickly) and was working on it when a speedy deletion tage was applied. Stupidly I didn't look at the 'new message' the minute it popped up to discover what it was about, and then within half an hour the article was deleted (just as I was saving the content - and whoops, there went all the work I'd just written, formatted and was in the process of previewing). The point is that I was working on it right there and then and because I was working on it hadn't seen the speedy deletion tag go on. I can't face doing all that work again right now - but I'm sure I will again in a few days. :-) The reason I am harping at poor you is because I am finding that things happen here too quickly. We don't want rubbish on line but, on the other hand, it would be nice to nurture people just a little more. This can be done I think by looking at dates - and allowing 24 hours to pass before anything serious is done on the assumption that people are actually working on their article (unless of course the thing being deleted is serious vandalism).

Probably seems a litte minor but thanks for deleting the image. Onnaghar tl | co | @ 14:08, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Can you take a look at the latest offering from User:Tirin9 since you gave him/her a final warning? It is totally unverifiable, very short, and contains names very similar to the articles that have already been speedy delete, which gives me concerns about BLP too. Thanks --Slp1 14:14, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Wyandotte Municipal Services Notability issue
This is regarding the page Wyandotte Municipal Services. Can you please give me some pointers on how to make the page more notible and deemed as "ok"; for wikipedia's standards. I cannot figure out why the admins think it isn't notible enough.
Thanks--Owensri2 23:03, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
My userpage
Thank you for the quick reversion. I knew something was up when my contribs said I wasn't the top edit of the page. I just started the View Askewniverse WikiProject, and an old, faceless enemy decided to create an account to piss in my Wheaties. Thanks a lot. DodgerOfZion
Hamnavoe Gallery
Hi, I noticed that you deleted the page about the Hamnavoe Gallery in Aberdeen Scotland.
I was wondering why as I tried to write it within the submission guidelines set by you guys. If you could advise me how to write a better one I would really appreciate it. There are loads of Galleries in Aberdeen and I wanted to write about this one.

Deletion question
Why are articles in the {{Needed-Class}} such as Talk:Farm to Market Road 1957 and Talk:Texas State Highway 169 being deleted? If you have an issue with the assessment class, you should bring that up for discussion, rather than just going through and deleting them. --Holderca1 02:33, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- They weren't orphaned talk pages, they were needed class articles as I mentioned above. See this cat for example: Category:Needed-Class hurricane articles. --Holderca1 18:08, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
Witthaya Hloagune.
Hello, why you deleted hangon on this page? THERE WERE NOT PLAYER NAMED WITTHAYA HLOAGUNE! It was wandalism! Kamil Pycio 07:23, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
What did you make?
What did you make [6]? Please moved arcicle [Silesian German] to [Lower Silesian language] and [Silesian (Polish language)] to [Silesian language]. This is official names (ISO!!!), see [7], [8]. LUCPOL 13:38, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- I can not move the same, we should remove first. Only administrator can this moved. Thanks, LUCPOL 13:59, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks from Nancy
Just seen that you reverted vandalism on my userpage and wanted to thank you for sorting it so quickly. Much appreciated. • nancy • 15:45, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Very nice cleanup on that article. Now why didn't I thought of that neat and simple solution to clean it up that way. Garion96 (talk) 19:32, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
GFDL
Hello NawlinWiki, please do not confuse others with your wrong estimation of the GFDL (with reference to [9] and [10]). There can be a copyright violation from copying a wikipedia article as well as there is an authorship of every article. You dismiss me misleadingly as you claim the opposite of what is written in the section of the GFDL I pointed out to you. Or you haven't really read what I wrote. Why do you think there are more intricate procedures like How to fix cut and paste moves (please read the introduction there)? --Oxymoron83 20:25, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Notability of Ice Records
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ice Records, by Intolerancerecords (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ice Records seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ice Records, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 05:08, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

No barnstars needed
You've preformed so many deletions the log doesn't go back that far, and you have never been a jackass with the tool. Speaking for every Wikipedian, we appreciate your work. Keegantalk 03:52, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gavin Hoyte
Hi, nothing has changed since this page failed the AfD since he played in a friendly and not a competitive match - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gavin Hoyte. Why did you decline the speedy, please? BlueValour 18:10, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
- No, when top teams play friendlies against lesser mortals they field all sorts of players - reserves, youth team players and trialists. It has been accepted across very many discussions that only competitive games count for notability. Arsenal field a full reserve squad for Carling Cup games and much to my chagrin these count but Hoyte hasn't featured in these either. SoccerBase is considered the database of choice and as you can see here they record that he has yet to appear. I should be grateful if you would reconsider the speedy position. BlueValour
Why
Why did you delete the haunted mansion fan-fic. It even has t's own website.

Algorithmic Trading Platforms
It is definitely not marketing or anything. I am trying create a separate article that discusses what trading platforms accomplish. And list the biggest players in the market. Please give it some time. I promise the article will be 100% neutral.
Your patience will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
