Maulie & Friends

I'm not a regular wiki user/editor so I really don't have the time, to rebutte every single instance or ocurrance on the page. If it's selected to be deleted and I have no confirmation as to what needs to be done/corrected in order to fix it then I am not going to bother with it. Looking over at some of the my-talks on here, I don't feel like utilizing every single legal term I have in order to justify why the page should remain. When it becomes a bigger internet meme than Chris Crocker, then I assume someone will probably make one themselves seeing that no page for it exists. But for now I wash my hands of it, if its selected to be deleted then so be it, there is myspace, forums, and a variety of other mediums to be used in order to allow readers see what is going on.

Speedy deletion of OHH MAY RIPP

A tag has been placed on OHH MAY RIPP requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Booglamay (talk) 22:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Alpha Phi Alpha Mediation

Martijn, thank you for your willingness to mediate. I would be more than willing to participate, however, I should mention that the editor that filed the mediation request(s) is a sockpuppet. Please let me know what I need to do. Thanks-RoBoTam^ice 01:20, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Infobox dancer

Hi. I'm not into dance, but I notice that there's one or two fields in Template:Infobox dancer that seem a little "unconventional", such as club number - was it adapted from a football template? You might want to edit it a little more. As an aside, I suspect the reason that only 3 articles use that template is because it wasn't in Category:People infobox templates so people couldn't find it, and it didn't have something that people could easily copy and paste into articles. I've now corrected both of those omissions, but I thought I'd mention it for future reference. FlagSteward (talk) 13:20, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Yup, it was. I was enthausiastic, but knew nothing of dance, or infoboxes, so I took a stab at it, and asked at the portal:dance what those people would like to see in such an infobox. Noone has yet responded. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 13:22, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough - I'll have another go over on the Project. FlagSteward (talk) 14:06, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, I don't know how this translates to dancers around the world, but I'd look at the pages for professional dancers from shows like Strictly Come Dancing to see the information that would be required. Presumably things like "titles won" would be applicable for a dancer. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 14:53, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for working that out! Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 14:57, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Hiya

Hi there! I remember you from the Simple English Wikipedia! I am starting to edit more here, so I hope you look for me! Cheers, Razorflame 14:29, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

NPW status?

It's been over two weeks since reports started coming in that NPW was no longer functioning properly. It's been four days since the last post on the NPW talk page with no response. As of this evening US time, I can log into NPW, but the list of new pages still will not populate. MartinP23 is on a wikibreak and Snowolf has quit the project entirely. If no fix is forthcoming, has NPW been killed off? DarkAudit (talk) 02:06, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

If I can't find a fix, then yeah, that sounds like the end of NPW. We still have Reedy and myself who may be able to fix it. Reedy knows the mechanism that fetches newpages better than I do, and if I can find the time, I will take a look myself, but at the moment I'm swamped with a load of things in real life. I certainly hope we can fix it though. You are free to take a look at the code yourself if you think you may be able to do something about it too. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 09:12, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Andrew M. Roberts

I understand the worries surrounding this article, but I have found it very difficult to reinforce the details online. I work in the finance sector and so have used my own knowledge. However, as I have mentioned in the article, he is an incredibly reclusive man. I am at a loss as to what to do. Fuzzybuddy (talk) 22:04, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
