Speedy deletion declined: The Special Operations Forces Exhibition and Conference

Hello RoadieRich. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of The Special Operations Forces Exhibition and Conference, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. GedUK  18:16, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Richard Kastle

I simply HAD to remove the bullshit, posing as a serious Wikipedia article! Check Richard Kastle on Wikipedia...find out the truth.

It's existence is all due to one Juri Koll, who has continuously screwed around with my own talk page.

If I canmot remove the ridiculous article, my friends will! Prof.rick 08:26, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

If you want an article to be removed, mark it to be deleted. There are instructions available at Wikipedia:AFD. Blanking the page is vandalism, and does not help anything. Wikipedia works on consensus, not on one person's opinion. Nominating it under AfD will bring in other editors who do not have any connection to the article, and will therefore be able to look at the subject neutrally. You are, however going have to come up with better reasons than saying a well referenced article is "bullshit".

Rich^(Contribs)_{(Talk to me!)} 08:29, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, BUT..whoever reads an article about Richard Kastle? Therefore, who would vote?

The vote is that it is automatically added to a page a large number of users look at. They will look at the article, and see if it should be deleted. Rich^(Contribs)_{(Talk to me!)} 08:51, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ctrl+Alt+Del

Good day, just to inform you I have contested the proposed deletion of Ctrl+Alt+Del due to the fact it would not be an uncontroversial deletion, and that I feel the scenario would benefit from gaining full consensus at Articles for Deletion. Additionally, the proposed deletion was contested in the past before I reviewed it, making it ineligible for the prod process anyway. Hope this helps, --Taelus (talk) 13:46, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

I've contested it, if that's what you mean, the my edit before the one adding the prod was removing it. I've since realised that what I thought were grounds for contesting it we actually very much POV-based, as I stated in the discussion page. I felt that as I had inappropriately removed it, it would be acceptable to undo my edit, and therefore re-add it, per WP:IAR. If there were other contestations (is that a word? - OSX seems to think it is) previous to mine then feel free to ignore this. -- Rich^(Contribs)_{(Talk to me!)} 23:02, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Non Free Images in your User Space

Hey there RoadieRich, thank you for your contributions! I am a bot alerting you that Non-free files are not allowed in the user or talk-space. I removed some images that I found on User:RoadieRich/Ctrl+Alt+Del. In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use images to your user-space drafts or your talk page. See a log of images removed today here, shutoff the bot here and report errors here. Thank you, -- DASHBot (talk) 04:13, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Skullptura

The article Skullptura has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not speedy deletable, but it may not be notable and is poorly sourced.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 21:24, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
