realkyhick's proposed deletion of KTron

The game KTron indeed exists and is bundled with some editions of Ubuntu. I will create a new version of the page which you flaggedas a candidate for sppedy deletion. The page was indeed too short and more information and a web site have been added.P2me 16:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC) Also thank you for the edits.[reply]

Geoemyda yuwonoi

Just an FYI... I removed your CSD tagging of Geoemyda yuwonoi as such a turtle does seem to exist. If you do a Google search for it, you'll find a few pages about it. Information appears to be scarce, but there is something out there. Thanks for helping out. =) -- Gogo Dodo 07:00, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks?

For nothing; you deleted my page even though I wasn't promoting myself...I thought this site was supposed to be for everyone--not just for people like you who control information like a dictator. This site is a joke...you totally wasted my time and ruined my experience on this page... --Time2rise 01:44, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Moved Lycoming County History

I am in the process of writing the History of Lycoming County. It is going to be fairly lengthy and that is why I have moved it from Lycoming County to this new page. Lycoming County will be updated with shorter versions of the same histories. See the changes already made. Dincher 21:17, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. I did change the link to your new article off the county page to use the {{main}} template, for consistency's sake. Realkyhick 21:20, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Steve Allott

When you viewed the article it was still in the creation stage. I have now updated the page more to reflect TV & Theatre contriubtions for the moment - and plan to add more over the next few days when I receiving airing dates of shows. Can you re-check the page that is now does not meet the speeding deletion standards please?

Thanks Cbccastings 21:32, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, you're right. I'd been deleting so much school kids' vandalism and nonsense that I got into a rhythm and let one slip by. My bad. Realkyhick 23:47, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, thanks for the reply. --kingboyk 16:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Demir Karaca

It wasn't actually semi-protected. It just had the template placed on it, which is a notice but doesn't actually do anything. Only admins can protect. It's the second time it's been created, so maybe you could keep an eye on it. Tyrenius 04:28, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, there's always a lot to learn! It will be interesting to see if the link in the heading turns blue - a litmus test. Keep up the good work. Tyrenius 04:39, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's a speedy any more, as there is claim to notability, but it may be an AfD, if you choose. Tyrenius 06:39, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm very uncomfortable with the way the article is written, and even about whether it passes notability. It's not speedy under non-notable as there is an assertion of notability, but it might well be speedy under advert, requiring considerable rewrite. My feeling is that you should take it to AfD, if you feel likewise. Tyrenius 00:31, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability seems to be dating a star (in which case merge any relevant info to her article) rich (not enough by itself) businessman (doesn't seem to really qualify) court case with government (not quite sufficient) sportsman (again not up to the notable benchmark). Tyrenius 03:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. Tyrenius 05:31, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vigor Microlight Deletion

For the record, I have no affiliation with the company that makes Vigor Microlight. I just bought one and wanted to provide some information for others who might buy it. I see there are pages for other products, like software and whatever, so I'm surprised you deleted my article on this. It certainly didn't sound like spam to me when I wrote it.

Aging in Place

You are a life saver, I had all but given up and was going to call it a day. I was motivated by Sally Herriot who has filed a federal suit to be allowed to "Age in Place" within her retirement community. She is being forced to move to the skilled nursing unit and the Ole gal said, "No" she isn't moving. She is challenging the idea of others moving her when she is perfectly happy in her assisted living unit/apartment. Senior civil rights, the next frontier.

Hey, thanks for the compliment

That sounds good. The subject certainly seems notable, and I was hesitant to delete it. Let me know if you need any assistance. -- Merope 17:34, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Help! - Turkic alphabets

Realkyhick, will you please help with the "Turkic alphabets" article. User Dbachmann effectively immediately killed it as a stand-alone article, pretending to merge it with Orkhon alphabet, without resorting to use to Talk page, or allowing the other users to comment. The action is visibly done in a bad faith. User Dbachmann belittled the author, removerd references contained in the original article, wiped out most of the contents, and then added [citation needed] in the merged left-overs. Please reverse this covert and unannounced speedy deletion. I even can't give a link to the wiped out article, because he re-linked Turkic alphabets title to Orkhon alphabet, like it never existed. Can you suggest what else can I do to restore the article? Barefact 21:38, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thend's Articles

Looks like we're having some trouble, as every article I post you've recommended for deletion, regardless that they meet the necessary criteria for addressing the importance of the bands and musicians. And http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4638104075215193069&q=ryan+pape is a source to cite the relevance of the CT band's article.

Angela Carder

Thanks for reminding me that the Angela Carder article needed to be categorized! I've added a few, but others may be appropriate. Cactus Wren 07:02, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries?

Hi! I admire your diligence in cleanging things, up, but could you please use edit summaries while you do? Otherwise it makes it hard for your fellow tidiers to figure out what's going on from the article history. Thanks, William Pietri 07:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rickshaw Inn

Holy sh*t! It's 2AM; and I just started the damn Rickshaw Inn page. It wil take a few days as I research more of this inn's illustrious history. Our family has been involved with Cherry Hill for a half-century; and there is much to say as I go back to the Cherry Hill Library's township history room in the basement... Which my parents have contributed many artifacts to. Discpad 07:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)Dan Schwartz[reply]

Yeah, speedying something out from under an editor with a history is probably better avoided. It can take a little time for a good article to develop. But Discpad, don't forget to stay WP:COOL. William Pietri 07:20, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]



Matt Sanchez

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Matt Sanchez, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

London bus articles

Are we going to have a separate article for every single London bus route? I doubt very seriously that individual articles would meet notability standards. I'm not even sure that one article encompassing all London bus routes is notable. Realkyhick 04:12, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Take your complaint up with WikiProject London Transport, who have saved various from deletion.--sonicKAI 21:11, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: The Battle at the Pass of Thermopylae

Hi, I saw your comment on this page. While I salute your effort in praising good work, are you aware that this article was cloned from the main article, Battle of Thermopylae? I suspect that this is the work of a tendentious editor, & have made it a redirect; if I'm wrong, please let me know. -- llywrch 21:27, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deep sea drilling

Yes, after I wrote the article and published it I noticed that I had submitted it under "Deep sea drilling" instead of "Offshore drilling". What I meant to do was to have a disambiguation page for two possible meanings of "deep sea drilling," so if it's alright with you, I'll revert it to my disambiguation page. Cmcfarland 07:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I've heard several professors talk about "deep sea drilling" as a substitute for "offshore drilling," I suppose because it generally takes place off the coast deep in the sea. However, there was also a government project by a similar name, so I added the disambiguation page instead of a redirect so that people trying to do research on the government project wouldn't be mislead.Cmcfarland 07:21, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize as I misunderstood what the issue with the article was.

Faith, Works, Grace and Latter Day Saints

You added a 'noncompliant' tag to this article eight minutes after I first created it. After looking at your talk page, you seem to be in an awful hurry, so I've made my own backup of the article so I can recreate it if you get trigger happy. I'm not sure what the process is, I've responded to your concerns on the article talk page. 74s181 07:08, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working with Mark on the article, he is most definitely not LDS and seems to be an experienced Wikipedian who works on many religious articles, he may even be an official 'editor', I'm not sure. He is the person who originally criticized the article shortly after you tagged it. Anyway, we've had some discussion, he's made a number of suggestions, I've been working on it. 74s181 23:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Per Mark's suggestion I removed all mention of opposing view, he said either do that or I needed to include a full coverage of opposing view but he said that effort would be 'doomed'. He says as long as the article speaks neutrally about what LDS believe on the topic and doesn't suggest what others believe it is ok. Everything is in the form "LDS believe...", the quotes make some assertions, but that is ok, right? Anyway, he says it is better, still kind of long but that for some reason this is typical of LDS doctrinal articles. 74s181 23:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Mark suggested I try to get your attention and ask you to take a look and see if you feel like you can remove the tags. BTW, I've renamed it Perfection (Latter Day Saints), also per Mark's suggestion. 74s181 23:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Realkyhick - I was merely writing about a social community I was not pluggin a website or blog... Whats your take on it?

I understand, but the social community of KushCash, has so much traction that mobilpayments world use them in their white paper, thats pretty significant wouldnt you say? I am more interested in discovering what needs to be changed on the post for the community to agree that it should be there? Grenlandic Freedom
