Hi, you deleted this article as A7. I made some research and it seems to be notable (the fact it's listed at Hong Kong Stock Exchange also asserts notability). Since it's sourced, could you consider undeleting it ? Thanks, Cenarium ^Talk 14:05, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

It's still an A7 but I'm willing to let any notability worries be dealt with in AfD. Gwen Gale (talk) 14:25, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Question =

Why is my username on the temporary wikipedian userpage list? Fclass (talk) 15:16, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

I fixed it. Gwen Gale (talk) 15:36, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Stop Making False Assumptions (Re: Stephanie Adams Article)

I forgot my username "An-Apple-A-NY-Day" so only my IP was recorded. Just because I undid one of your edits, along with a few other editors who kept and later clarified the edit (including "EdJohnston" and "J Readings") does that make me or any of us the "subject"? Do you actually think Miss Adams has time to waste on such nonsense? Think about it. An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 22:20, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I do. We see this kind of thing here a lot, it's not hard to spot. Gwen Gale (talk) 22:22, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Well you got the wrong person honey. I'm far from being Miss Adams and I know she is a professional writer. I couldn't even get away with writing something here without having to correct my typos. (wink) An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 22:25, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

We don't believe you. Please have a look at Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. If you carry on disrupting the article, you may be blocked from editing. Gwen Gale (talk) 22:31, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Who is the creator of that article? An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 22:35, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

By the looks of it, someone who creates lots of stub articles on models who have posed for that magazine. Gwen Gale (talk) 22:38, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok, that wasn't me either. I thought you were pointing the finger at me regarding the "coi" because I was the only one who undid one of your edits. Perhaps you are referring to someone else then, but even so, I do not see the proof, just the assumption. I haven't been on here in a while anyway. An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 22:44, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Please don't remove the tag again. Once the article has settled down into a verifiably neutral point of view, it'll be taken off by an experienced editor. Gwen Gale (talk) 23:02, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

No problem. But just a bit of info for you...from the research I did on people like "Sean Martin", they are editing this article because they do not like Adams. Pretty odd. What's even odder is that they only know of her, but do not know her, not even Sean Martin, who was the name linked to his friend Adams sued and beat in court. Neither one knew Adams personally, but they stalked her online and posted defamatory comments about her in the past, comments which were later removed by a court order.) So his editing this article is not fair and not a "neutral point of view" either. Remember that. Have a good night. P.S. Watch him come on here and reply to this. He's really got mental issues regarding his obsession with this playmate. (I'm sure you get a lot of these types on here too.) Again, have a good night.

Personal attacks aren't allowed on Wikipedia either. Please comment on edits, not editors. Gwen Gale (talk) 23:53, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok, but one more question. Are editors allowed to make personal attacks on the subject of the article? According to their contribution history, that user has done so in the past. An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 00:09, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No, they are not. Do you have examples of these personal attacks? Dayewalker (talk) 00:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, here is some of what I read from the archives for Stephanie Adams:

• [personal attacks removed, please use diffs instead]
• [quotes from lawsuit removed]

An-Apple-A-NY-Day (talk) 00:52, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Personal attacks in answer to personal attacks aren't allowed. As for these lawsuits, they don't even look notable to me and I don't think they should be brought up without cited coverage by independent, third party publications. Gwen Gale (talk) 01:24, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Agree with GG. I don't even know what that was that you quoted. The first thing appeared to be a discussion, and the second thing seemed to be a blog, or something else that wasn't legal. There were too many jokes in it to be a legal document for my tastes. The bottom line is unsourced/non-encyclopedic information will be removed from the page, as will personal attacks. Regardless of the obvious WP:COI there, that's the way it works. Dayewalker (talk) 01:38, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Another Question

Do you know how to add turn numbers and names to .svg track maps? Fclass (talk) 23:32, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Inkscape. Gwen Gale (talk) 23:50, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

No, I mean, can you do it? Fclass (talk) 23:54, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

I can, but don't have much time (I'm watching my watchlist whilst doing other stuff). Why not download Inkscape and do it yourself? Gwen Gale (talk) 23:57, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

I tried, but it doesn't say how to upload the map onto Inkscape. Fclass (talk) 00:01, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Upload? Map? Open the svg image and add what you like. Gwen Gale (talk) 00:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I'll do that. By the way, what country are you from? Fclass (talk) 00:20, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

The land of pointy ears. Gwen Gale (talk) 00:23, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Why do you call Switzerland the land of pointy ears? Also, are there Americans living in Switzerland? Fclass (talk) 00:27, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Dumb Swiss in-joke having to do with elves and doing crafty stuff. Yes, there are lots of Americans (and Brits) living in Switzerland. It's hard to walk in the city centres of places like Zurich and Geneva without hearing American and British accents. Gwen Gale (talk) 00:33, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

You like auto racing? I love it. Fclass (talk) 00:48, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I know you do. Taken altogether, I don't like cars. However, last year I was at an art gallery party which had stock car racing as its theme. They even had an old wreck of a car in there dressed up like one. A DJ played top of the pops records from the 60s and 70s, there were flatscreens with viddies of stock car races on the walls and they grilled hamburgers. It cracked me up, I had fun. Gwen Gale (talk) 00:58, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

See, Gwen Gale? There's nothing wrong with getting to know somebody on this website. Fclass (talk) 01:02, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Did I ever say there was, Fclass? Gwen Gale (talk) 01:06, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Heavy relief from WP

Gwen, I'm thinking of buying some goodies from www.cafepress.com/vaginacheney but I'm wondering if more than 2% of people would laugh. Comments? -- Hoary (talk) 13:31, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Didn't Rush Limbaugh call her a babe? I recall her husband races snowmobiles. Isn't that kinda like stock car racing? User:Fclass, what do the sources say about this? Gwen Gale (talk) 13:35, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Edit of Stephanie Adams Article

Just wanted to say that I like your rewrite of the article. It has been a touchy one for a while, and needed the cleanup. Thanks. Wandering canadian (talk) 13:54, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
