This user is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.

Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive subject or headline for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.

⇒ Start a new Talk topic.

If you need access to a Wikipedia article that has been deleted, ask me. If it's not a copyright violation, libel, autobiography, COI, or personal information, and has not been deleted as a suspected WP:BLP violation, I will probably provide the text for you, especially if you can convince me that you intend to turn it into a good Wikipedia article with some work.

Note that using the text to recreate a deleted article automatically qualifies it for speedy deletion, and keeping deleted content hanging around in your userspace has gotten editors penalized before. But that's your problem.

Vicci Laine Article

Hi, I have added the links to the above page. Thank you for the suggestion. I also deleted the box requesting links be added. I hope that is ok. Thanks for the help. I am new here and trying to make this the best page possible for her. Baileysmom (talk) 15:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Matt Duke (musician) Article

Hello, I see that you protected the deleted article Matt Duke (musician) on March 9, 2009 and it can no longer be recreated. I understand there were instances of copyright related issues with the page, as well as consistent recreation of the page after a deletion discussion took place. However, most of the core issues with this page, including the fact that the page did not display any reason for notability for Matt Duke and the lack of credible sources to support the information on the page, would no longer be an issues if the page is allowed to be created again.

I am not sure what copyright issues caused the previous deletion before yours, but upon my proposed re-creation for the page, I can assure you that many credible sources will be cited (including references and features from Teen Vogue, MSN, Perez Hilton, ABC News, the Columbia City Paper and others) and copyright infringment will not be an issues in any way. Also, Matt is now signed to a notable record label, Rykodisc, which is owned by Warner Music Group, so I feel two years after the first article was created, he is now definitely a more established artist at this point and has achieved the required notability for Wikipedia. Thank you for your consideration, I do hope you decide to release the protection on this page so this artist can finally have a decent article created about him. Dr3w05 (talk) 18:31, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd suggest you create a version of the page at User:Dr3w05/Matt Duke (musician), making sure that you address the issues from past deletions, especially the lack of sources and not meeting the notability requirements of WP:MUSIC. When you think it's ready, put a {{helpme}} tag on your talk page (note the curly brackets) and have an experienced editor look it over. Once it's ready for main space (and only when it's ready), put an {{adminhelp}} tag on your talk page, and any admin who comes along can move it over for you. HTH!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:25, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, I will definitely get on this. Dr3w05 (talk) 00:11, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vicci Laine page

Thank you so much for the "minor formating" you did for this page. I believe so much in how this person lives her life and what she does for her community that I wanted her to have a great page and, you have helped to make it better! Thanks again for your help.

Barnegat Fund Management - nominated for deletion?

I don't understand why you want to delete this article. It makes no false claims. Asks no one to invest. States only facts. And the article appears to be under construction. Can you lay our in English (not Wiki shorthand) where this article goes wrong so that its contributors can make proper amendments? --Djbarnes (talk) 19:27, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The deletion page has a link to the issue, which is Wikipedia:Notability, especially Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Also, you should take some time to read WP:COI.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:03, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Coppell Copperheads

Yup, spotted that and corrected it.. in all the other ones. Doh. Thanks for picking up on it :). Ironholds (talk) 16:24, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not a problem. I'm sure you'll need to do the same for me one day. :) --Fabrictramp | talk to me 16:25, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyler Herron

Found anything new on this guy? If you have I'd be happy to withdraw. This may sound silly with all my AFD work but I really don't like deleting stuff. Also, can you review John Drennen? Another article on a minor league player whose speedy deletion I declined. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:26, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I may not have time today or tomorrow, but for sure by Wednesday I can take a look. Cheers!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 14:35, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Haven't had time to revisit Tyler Herron yet, but I did take a look at John Drennen and added a few sources there. That one's tricky (and would be controversial, so declining the speedy was definitely appropriate). On the keep side, we have first round draft pick, South Atlantic League all-star (which I didn't add to the article), and lots of sources available. On the merge to Cleveland Indians minor league players side, we have the fact that first round draft pick being notable is a minority position, the SAL is class A ball, so an all-star appearance giving notability isn't widely accepted, and other than the North County Times article, most of the press is due to the homer off Roger Clemens, which is not a unique event (Clemens gave up 363 in the majors). If this came up to AfD, I'd be in the merge camp, but I probably wouldn't bother to nominate it myself. Hope that helps a bit. :) --Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:08, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Another thought: User:Hit bull, win steak is brilliant at finding baseball sources. If he's around, he might be willing to give it a look. --Fabrictramp | talk to me 17:04, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I took another look at Tyler Herron and didn't find any more. :( --Fabrictramp | talk to me 13:49, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Formal Mediation for Sports Logos

As a contributor to Wikipedia_talk:Non-free_content/RFC_on_use_of_sports_team_logos, you have been included in a request for formal mediation regarding the subject at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Use of Sports Logos. With your input and agreement to work through mediation, it is hoped we can achieve a lasting solution. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:39, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

new entry

Hello,

I see that you have helped delete the "widwi" entry from wikipedia. Can you please explain to me why widwi should be removed or what I missed to make it qualify to stay? I don't see how it's an less relevant then the many other websites defined in wikipedia.

Thanks for your help.

The article didn't show how it met the requirements of Wikipedia:Notability (web), particularly Wikipedia:Notability (web)#Criteria. (You might also want to read WP:OTHERSTUFF.) HTH! --Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:34, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you should spend some time carefully reading WP:COI. Wikipedia really isn't the place to be advertising your web site.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:35, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is my site, but I am not put it up for advertising. I will review the posting rules again, but I don't see the harm in leaving up the entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aprice88 (talk • contribs) 17:06, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
