Wizard101

The deletion of the characters section was due to it being unnecessary and more detailed than what is needed. I posted on the talk page for Wizard101 stating my intentions, as well as that I would carry them out if nobody was opposed. Since nobody replied to my comment, I assumed that it was OK, especially since the Wizard101 page has a flag for having minutiae. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rakomwolvesbane (talk • contribs) 23:15, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Saying 'If no one opposes' is not consensus that stands. A discussion has to take place for consensus to be reached. In addition Wikipedia articles are supposed to be detailed and informative. Unless what you deleted was about lets say Minecraft on that article: It is necessary. Plus removal of which with no proper consensus is usually considered vandalism. John F.

OK, I see. I'll wait for responses/discussion, but what if nobody responds within, say, two weeks? Is there a point at which I can take the lack of response to be affirmation, or should I just keep waiting indefinitely? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rakomwolvesbane (talk • contribs) 00:51, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately with consensus, if it doesn't come naturally you would have to force it by posting at the appropriate WikiProject or contacting editors to put their view in. John F. Lewis (talk) 00:57, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Hmmmm OK. Thanks for your help. Rakomwolvesbane (talk) 01:10, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

My Page

John why did you ask my page to be deleted? I worked very hard on this bio. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MafiaMobDoll (talk • contribs) 00:40, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

I didn't. I moved your page back to where it is appropriate and nominated the redirect I created. John F. Lewis (talk) 00:43, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

John why did you as for my page regarding Wendy Hanley-Mazaors to be deleted? I have worked very hard on this bio, along with help from Wikipedia. So Please tell me why you would do that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MafiaMobDoll (talk • contribs) 00:44, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Again: I did not ask for deletion. I am requestion deletion of a redirect I created. I moved your article back to your user space. John F. Lewis (talk) 00:47, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Questions from last night

Turns out I fell asleep but I spotted the questions and things you said last night so...

• "I made a quick pull to correct a word in a comment... Most pointless pull ever though :)" My spelling can sometimes be terrible in comments, i type them so quickly and generally dont read them.
• "It removes the {{stub}} tag: Considered adding the {{stub}} tag?" currently the $tag's in the config are only tags to add to the multiple issues template. as there are literally hundreds or thousands of stub tags we decide not to set them in the config as we can match them all with a regex :) and if we ever get around to adding them we can just use {{stub}} rather than one of the stub types.
• "are there any tags Addbot does not apply that you wish it would/could?" yes all of them.
