Is this also blatant advertising? And if not, what makes it different from the Instant-On Enterprise page that you deleted? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smarter_Planet

Leanne Vogel's Wiki page

Hi, can you help? I am trying to add resources around gluten free eating, but my article about Leanne Vogel was deleted. I am not sure why, I was adding similar blogs/bloggers.

'samarth pratishthan'

can u help to recreat the page plzzzzzzzzz — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ganeshsiddha (talkcontribs) 12:58, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note that I have salted both names (Samarth Pratishthan and Samarth pratishthan). Ganeshsiddha, if you want to try recreating the article, we can do that in a draft in your userspace (I'll show you how), but first you need to start talking to me. I've left messages on your talk page, (User Talk:Ganeshsiddha), but you haven't responded yet. I think you need to learn a little bit about Wikipedia to understand why there were problems with your previous versions, and what will be necessary if we are to consider an article on SP.

Heyo Fastily, if you have sometime then can you please have a look at a user's contributions, named "KH1MOVIE"? He started an edit war with a couple of users (including myself) on Rebecca Black's My Moment, in particular. The situation kind of got messy with a bunch of reverts resulting in an edit war. Also, the user has violated the code of conduct by using unsuitable words in his edit summaries which can be really offensive to some users. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks ♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 15:35, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Warned user. If they start editing disruptively again, let me know and I'll block them. -FASTILY (TALK) 17:24, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
May I know why am I getting the warning? I just came here to report and by contributions, I clearly meant the use of abusive words in the edit summaries which was directly related to the content of that article, not an intentional hate or bashing towards anybody in particular. ♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 17:37, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When I wanted to add an article on CoSyne, I noticed that there seems to have been an earlier page with this very name that you removed June 30, due to lacking notability. As there has been significant coverage of CoSyne in scientific publications on natural language processing it should be possible to write a decent article on the subject. To avoid unnecessary trouble I would like to know if you can send me the text of the removed article, supposing that it deals with the same topic? MarcoSwart (talk) 22:11, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, I've reproduced the main body of the article below. Click edit this page to view it. -FASTILY (TALK) 17:27, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) Wow that's a clever trick. Sven Manguard Wha? 17:42, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot. I will merge it with the article I was preparing and add appropriate sources and categories. MarcoSwart (talk) 17:58, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mind commenting?

Would you mind commenting on the last section of my talk page, the one concerning the mass image reuploads, as I am uncertain as to how to clean this up? Thanks! Reaper Eternal (talk) 19:00, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's been taken care of. Best, FASTILY (TALK) 19:12, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again! Reaper Eternal (talk) 19:14, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted redirect

I see you have deleted the redirect File:Balbarbie House1910.gif per R3, i.e. as an "implausible typo" for "Balbardie House". Implausible or not, the image was originally uploaded in 2007 with that very typo, by Giano, and has been wrongly named "Balbarbie House" ever since, as the history shows. I recently moved it to the correct spelling. I'm not sure it's implausible that somebody might look for the file under the original spelling, since it has gone under that for four years. That's why I refrained from deleting the automatically created redirect. Bishonen | talk 19:31, 9 August 2011 (UTC).[reply]

I deleted the page because it had no links to it and did not appear to serve any useful purpose to the project. I note that both the original and new titles vary by a few letters, so even if someone were to search for the original title, the SphinxSearch extension would direct them to find the new title. Of course, if feel otherwise, feel free to recreate the redirect; it's no big deal. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 19:40, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, now that was fast

Like wow, I was posting over at ANI about this can of worms that I just dug up, and I went back to add some info; when I saved the page, the bluelink had gone all red (and dead). All I can say is like wow again and you deserve your username. Cheers. CaptainScreebo Parley! 20:31, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hah, thanks. Happy to have been able to help. Cheers, FASTILY (TALK) 20:32, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I'm pretty sure him and Hersfold are simply friendly bots... too fast to be human... ;-) ROBERTMFROMLI | TK/CN 09:36, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Talk:Militant Atheism" Section 12 - "Introduction"

Hi, I'm just asking for the discussion topic to be closed and an acknowledgment given to the vote there. It's been nearly 2 weeks since the last activity, and without action the discussion will be archived. User:Master of Puppets has had IRL concerns preventing him from tending to it, and so I would like to bring it to your attention for action. Turnsalso (talk) 01:47, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I'll have a look at it. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 03:50, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Leaving wikipedia

How do i close my account because i'm about to leave wikipedia because i'm retiring from this place?--HappyLogolover2011 (talk) 02:18, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:RTV. We don't delete accounts, but you can certainly have all pages in your userspace deleted. -FASTILY (TALK) 03:49, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy and delete non-user?

Hi Fastily! I ran into something interesting during RCP. I think you were helping out[1] a new editor (Branddevo) a little while back (or at least provided some sort of help in removing the db-spam tag)... they are working on an article, but have it in a different userspace[2]. Not sure if it's one user using one account as article space and now the other account as the edit account. Was wondering if it should simply be userfied under Branddevo's account? Best, ROBERTMFROMLI | TK/CN 09:00, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While I did indeed decline a speedy on it roughly a month ago, the page has become nothing but pure spam in the past month. I've deleted it as such and warned both users. I don't think this is something that should be userfied. Hope that helps. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 16:25, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

About the concerns

Dear Fastily,

You forgot me or you changed your mind (about help)??
Thanks --Yamsahh (talk) 15:56, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still looking into it. Sorry for the delay. -FASTILY (TALK) 17:06, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No matter of being sorry! Gooood things are goood too wait for!! At your convenience!
But please if you feel there is something wrong just drop a sentence in my email address , OK?

Have a pleasnt day--Yamsahh (talk) 17:16, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected Block Evasion on Protandim

Hi Fastily. Just noticed that a new editing account (Rebo99) has resumed an edit war, making basically the same edits[3] that led to the block for PublicAdvocate [4][5][6][7] who later evaded the block as an anon IP and was blocked again.[8] Rhode Island Red (talk) 16:53, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can I say quack quack? User:Rebo99 blocked indef. Thanks for letting me know. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 17:03, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Amazing to see you protected this. Why? You gave persistant vandalism yet that not an issue with the article. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 17:04, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently it is -FASTILY (TALK) 17:05, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
A reading of the requesting editors talk page User_talk:Renseim suggests a waring amoung registered editors. A check on the articles history suggests no issue with IP's. So semii-protection is preventing something that isn't a problem and not fixing a problem that is. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 17:23, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe you are looking at User_talk:90.193.11.66 edits of section blanking, one of which I reverted myself. It's not any problem to blank parts of an article. It cannot logically cause a BLP issue for example and is easy to fix. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 17:29, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Very well, I'm watching the page. Should vandalism pick up, I'll reprotect the article - this time for longer. -FASTILY (TALK) 18:12, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A pie for you!

Thank you for your quick response in protecting Sonic Adventure from persistent IP vandalism. RandomAct(talk to me) 17:10, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I do appreciate it :) Glad to have been able to help! Cheers, FASTILY (TALK) 18:13, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Hey thanks! I had once flirted the idea of requesting autopatrolled rights and now a bot did for me! Glad to know I qualify. Cheers. Hoverfish Talk 17:33, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing. Happy Editing! Cheers, FASTILY (TALK) 18:13, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure that the page was deleted once already today. There's also sockpuppetry involved: see Mcampanelli, compared with Firecracker461. Jsharpminor (talk) 18:31, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
