AfD formatting

• Care to be more specific and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Because I am copying and pasting from that website. will381796 (talk) 06:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)/

Thanks. Do I seem to have the problem solved with my most recent nomination "pg=Atayalangal"? will381796 (talk) 07:06, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for requesting deletion of the 2008 California Artic Storm page. Hari —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hsriniva (talk • contribs) 06:22, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

requesting comment on AfD page

You state that because Time is a major magazine that therefore other major outlets will cover the issue and that therefore it isn't notable.

I don't follow your logic; what other major news organizations covered the controversy? Did you even read the piece in its entirety? Along with the cited sources? If you had read it completely, then you would know that one of the nation's pre-eminent media journalists not only provided scant coverage of the issue, but the coverage he provided was slanted in favor of Klein.

• You say that it's not notable. How do you rationalize that?
• You say that it's original research. How do you rationalize that?
• You say that it's biased. But you don't say in what manner -- much less with any examples -- that it's biased.

Please respond on the RfD page.

No thanks. Please don't post indignant and condescending messages on my talk page. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 20:27, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Mapleland farms

I've declined the speedy tag you placed on Mapleland farms. The reason is:

About a farm (a place), not the people who run it - not subject to speedy deletion due to lack of notability

For your information, עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:28, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I wasn't sure if that could be speedied or not. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 08:40, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Oak Ridge Solutions

Ice, I entered my companies existence into Wikipedia. I tried to be objective and avoid any advertising, but I was marked as "blatent advertising". Sigh... Are there examples of company definitions (software companies in this case) which do not violate the "blatant advertising" standard? Orswalterm (talk) 15:41, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

You really shouldn't be editing any articles related to or about your company; it presents a conflict of interest. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 17:42, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Unreasonable flagging of site resulting in deletion

I am the creator of the Hemoglobin (Religion) site, and I am unable to understand the motives behind deletion of it. I am just trying to inform others on the religion that I have lived my life by, and I think it is wrong for you to flag it under the grounds of lacking fact-proving third party sources. I am trying to create a fact-proving source on Wikipedia that you have unfortunately put a halt to. I think you are prejudicial against a Hemoglobism when your peers allow Christianity and Judaism yet flag my beliefs 30 seconds after I post them. So if you could please reply with a reasonable response that will help me understand this detrimental erasure.

Nonsensical rants about your supposed religion (I cannot confirm that this so-called "Hemoglobism" actually exists) are not suitable for Wikipedia articles. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 06:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Google returns only hits on Wikipedia user talk pages ([1]). l'aqùatique ^talk 05:49, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Just as I suspected. It's either made up or a bizarre cult. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 07:05, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Marginal notability

How is Matt Sanchez marginally notable? Did you see the reference section on the article? I quote what I wrote on the Afd page:

marinecorpstimes.com,columbiaspectator.com,navytimes.com, mediamatters.org. He's also appeared on Fox News and other places.

There are many more references in the reference section. How is this "marginal notability" ? No surprise how everyone else as well is pointing out that the person is pretty notable. --Matt57 ^{(talk•contribs)} 17:08, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

St. Martin Island-Michigan

I put in some citations in the St. Martin Island article. The island is in Michigan not Wisconsin and it has a lighthouse. Thank you- RFD (talk) 21:04, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for being understanding about the St. Martin Island article and not going through with its deletion.Thank you-RFD (talk) 13:51, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 17:32, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

9/11 CIA-Afghani Theory

What happened to my contribution? It just disappeared, and it says you deleted it? I hope I don't have to appeal your decision to the Moral Majority or anything. Stockpotato (talk) 05:55, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Read our policy on original research. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 06:02, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

My Rfa

I wish to thank you for being supportive of my effort to regain my adminship. Though it was not successful, your support was still very much appreciated. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Thank you!--MONGO 17:49, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. I hope you try again in the future. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 18:03, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Another RfA

While I appreciate your support for my RfA, I would also appreciate a rationale being added to help explain why you support me even if it is as simple as "I see no reason to oppose." IMHO, the more details you can provide, the better. — BQZip01 — ^talk 07:10, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Done. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 07:59, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Jeemorese

The whole point of the article ended up being the reason it was removed. It's a common term in MMO's - perhaps some day it will earn enough recognition to be placed on Wiki. I've read a lot on Wiki, and I'm really surprised this one was chosen over others I've read. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeemor (talk • contribs) 15:46, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I tagged it for speedy deletion criterion G1, which means that the article was nonsensical. We have standards for inclusion, most importantly our general notability criterion. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 18:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

about your talk page vandalism

Yeah, I was about to post the below on AIV.

• This guy is using dynamic IP addresses to circumvent blocks. His comment on my talk page is a reference to a comment I made on a previous address's talk page after it was blocked.

After you read the blurb on my page, I'd appreciate it if you'd remove his comments because I've got to get to bed. (1:30 A.M. here on the eastern seaboard.) Just thought you might like to know. Regards. Thingg^⊕⊗ 06:34, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Done. At least he didn't call you a "newfag."[2] I don't even know what that means. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 06:40, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

A "newfag" is like an "oldfag," but he has all his teeth.
