Help me?

Dear PeaceNT I sincerely hope that you are alright, and not just because I am going to ask for your help. Help? I would really appreciate your help. Are you alright? Thanks for the consideration. Do you know of anyone as kind as you are that may adopt me? (This is not just because someone has removed the long-overdue-for-a-change-picture on Thomas' page either, I was planning to seek adoption after that last expansion anyway.) When you so kindly send me pages of helpful information, I haven't the faintest idea where to start. I am trying to wrap my mind around the seemingly inexhaustable choices and really need a home base to explore from there on. How do I know if I even have a user page? Did the system generate one for me and I just don't realize this? If so, how do I recognize it as such? How do I get there, every time I try to make one, the system wipes it out - Argh! Thanks for your patience with me, by the way, about everything. Thank you for all the notes. (Much easier to learn if no one is yelling at me, I could just be bold and blunder ahead angering everyone, but find the shy way to be more productive - less enemies that way. Keep in mind that until this past December I never have had a computer in the home. Sorry I am not more savvy but, I am trying.) We have no other pictures of Thomas, the last time I checked where the other picture came from in our photo file storage, that was the only one there! I don't mind someone taking something like a picture away but hopefully we would put a better picture in it's place. Is there a certain protocol to be followed when seeking to obtain pictures from various sources? What can we have? How do we obtain more? This empty space where a picture should be is not good, it's been about a week. How does one avoid the look of a page that was spammed with photos: how many is too many? How do I add them to the page? As you can read, I do need help. Thanks for taking the time to read this. And respond? Sincerely, Linn,````

Thank you

I have a user page now. Don't know if you are still gone but, thank you for being here, still need a bit more help, thank you! Linn-bun

WikiProject Harry Potter roll-call


Hi there. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Harry Potter participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. Your name has therefore been moved to a "potentially inactive" list. If you still consider yourself an active WikiProject Harry Potter editor, please move your name from the Potentially inactive list to the Active Contributors list. You may also wish to add {{User WP Harry Potter}} to your userpage, if you haven't done so already. Conversely, if you do not wish to be considered a member of the WikiProject, leave your name where it is and it will be moved to the Inactive Contributors section. If you wish to make a clean break with the Project you may move your name to the Known to have left section. Many thanks.

Hi, there, PeaceNT. Regarding Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/João Carlos Heidemann, I think you missed Washington Cesar Santos Júnior. Cheers! —Lesfer (t/c/@) 13:58, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism on my talk page

Thanks for reverting. I have just reported the user, so you dont need to be too worried about reverting it any more (he just reverted your revert :P) if you dont want to. (If you want to go ahead :P) Thanks again. Tiddly-Tom 14:31, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Didnt realise you were Admin, thanks for blocking him ;) Tiddly-Tom 14:34, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting vandalism

hello, thank you for appreciating my anti-vandal efforts. Bye :) ---Doktor Who 08:37, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You deleted this on August 16 as a db-self; can you please tell me if there was an actual article or just a sub-stub? Thank you. --NE2 13:25, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How stubby was it? Was it the kind that would have been better started from scratch? --NE2 14:07, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, that would be nice. I'm not sure if I'm going to create it but there's a good chance. --NE2 14:13, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It certainly looks good enough for an article. Can you please restore it to New Brunswick Route 103? Thank you. --NE2 14:19, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to Wikipedia:Revocation of GFDL is not permitted, I could copy it from Google's cache and credit it to him, and it would satisfy the GFDL, but it would be cleaner to have his name on the revisions. Looking at User:Kirjtc2, I don't think he'd be interested in talking, if he's even monitoring his talk page any more. --NE2 14:30, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot. Can you get the talk page too, and delete the sandbox? --NE2 14:37, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, re recently deleted Elliot Cho as a CSD A7. However the article stated that the subject "starred in a number of movies, TV shows and, commercials", which is a claim to notability. Perhaps you would like to reconsider. Dsmdgold 15:08, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've been following this article since creation, and its talk page is telling. Here's the situation, as I understand it. There already exists a page for Elliott Cho (note double-t). User:54uc3 created Elliot Cho claiming that he himself is Mr Cho, and that the single t is the correct spelling of his name. I believe he made the page in good faith, wanting to correct what he saw as an error, without realising that the correct thing to do was to argue for the renaming of the Elliott Cho article (WP:COI concerns aside). Now, moving Elliott Cho to Elliot Cho is not going to be uncontroversial. There seems to be evidence online for either spelling. In the article itself, both spellings are used. IMDB lists him as Elliott Cho with an alternate name of Elliot Cho. Online searches give both spellings close to even weighting, and while the double-t spelling is a bit more common, that's not surprising as that is the more common spelling of the name in general. Anyway, the discussion from the now-deleted Elliot Cho talk page would be useful to be kept. What I think I'm going to do is take the discussion I've presented here to Talk:Elliott Cho. I can contact User:54uc3; would you be so kind as to contact other people involved in the discussion on the deleted talk page and let them know? Thanks— Timotab Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!) 15:22, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Given Timotab's contribution I think this is a clear case for one or the other of the spellings to redirect to the other. I will note that being "completely unsourced and poorly written" are not speedy criteria, and that "starred in a number of movies, TV shows and, commercials" is, in and of itself, a claim to notability. Whether or not that claim is sufficient, because of sourcing or other concerns is not a part of the speedy process and should be dealt with another deletion process, where there are more people watching and a more informed decision may be made. Dsmdgold 15:32, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've copied the discussion from the undeleted talk page to Talk:Elliott Cho. Talk:Elliot Cho can be deleted again, and I'm sure we'll work on WP:Consensus on the existing talk page.— Timotab Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!) 15:46, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see that we disagree on the interpretation of A7, but, in my opinion, determining whether or not a given role in a movie is important enough to qualify as an assertion of notability is beyond the scope of A7. I would also note that the word "starred" has a significantly different meaning than "appeared". Neither Angus MacInnes nor Phil Brown "starred" in Star Wars, although they both appeared in it. I think that A3 would apply even less than since even a single sentence of meaningfull content disqualifies an article for A3. ("no" is not the same as "not much") This article had two sentences and a poorly formatted filmograhy. Poor formatting does not make content meaningles. Dsmdgold 17:52, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've read the deleted version of Elliot Cho and I completely accede to PeaceNT's decision. I also did a quick research on this individual, there seems considerable number of sources but none of them is verifiable. Moreover, Dsmdgold, I think you are getting trouble with WP:SELF. Your opinion on notability is largely based on a sentence from the article itself, which wasn't verified by any reliable sources. The article stating that "starred in a number of movies, TV shows and, commercials" doesn't lead to the conclusion that this person is notable because he starred, not just appeared. Once more, this assertion of notability is absolutely wrong, for no sources can be found to backup that information. Remember that this article may even relate to WP:COI and the editor (a kid, perhaps!) exaggerated himself, violating NPOV, thus undoubtedly the delete action was warranted. @pple 04:02, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, according to this person's modest notability, the word "starred" is totally misused. @pple 04:05, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello :-) It really bothered me that the article on Dvar was deleted because thought i'm not their fan (i'm a more Pink Floyd and Russian rock type), i just know how big they are in the goth-scene in Russia. Nevertheless, after a while i understood it really looked bad. Anyway, now i resumed it re-edited and re-wrote it. It took me a while to formulate how to re-write it. Anyway, check it out please and i hope you like it. The work on it was really harder then it seems. M.V.E.i. 23:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Barnstar of Diligence
For you, dear Peace. Because let's face it; you're a damn good admin! Always a pleasure to see you around the project, often beating me out for reverts, helping, blocking, and more! Jmlk17 06:17, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They as i said are big in the Russian goth scene. The problem is that the Russian goth scene is very local. You can find plenty of links of them in Russian, and in Italian a little less. But one administratyor once told me that the Russian links are ok to maximum a Russian administrator can check them. M.V.E.i. 09:03, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here you can see a clip a fan made to their song, from the right you can find more. M.V.E.i. 09:11, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, i didn't find more English sites (except album reviews, but it's not so considered). There are plenty of Russian once though. but on this site it's written nicely and in English. M.V.E.i. 09:14, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Why did you delete it? I made it better. M.V.E.i. 09:57, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ah it's not you sorry, i hope you could support restoring it. The discussion with the deleting administrator is here. M.V.E.i. 10:01, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What does it matter in what language are the sources?? I gave one in English. M.V.E.i. 14:14, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thats the whole thing, the Russian sources do provide that. Use a Russian administrator for translation. M.V.E.i. 14:22, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's the whole thing while it's deleted i can't do and check on it anything. M.V.E.i. 14:52, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My problem is who to contact? Alex Bakharev already did so much for me and thats why i wouldn't like to trouble him more, and Kuban Kazak is in somthing that has to do with the military service. I know many Russian users here but only those two are administrators. M.V.E.i. 14:58, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please delete RuneScape

So I can move the page back because of the vandal you just blocked. Thanks. i said 06:42, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks much. i said 06:44, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We have a much bigger problem. He moved loads of pages. Could you delete them, I'll move. i said 06:48, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Whew. That wasn't fun. Other people beat me to a lot of em though. Thanks! i said 06:59, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What the ___ ?

Is there any particular reason why you deleted World War II? I have undone the deletion. Grant | Talk 06:55, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. I thought it may have been an accident. Grant | Talk 07:08, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you assess the page Needahotel.com before you deleted it?

I made massive changes to the page since the initial suggestion to delete. There is no way it could be interpreted as SPAM in its current format. Please undelete it. This is the first time I have ever contributed to Wiki and I have to say that I am very disappointed with the way the admins are handling this. Look at the entry for Expedia and tell me that it is not advertising!!! I am not disregarding your authority but I have restored the page. Please take the time to read it and let me know if you think it is advertising.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Darragh.Flynn (talkcontribs) 09:12, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
