Thanks

Thank you for looking after Bjørnøya, my former pet article was certainly in need of that type of improvement. Are you new to Wikipedia? Would be great to see more of your work! Merry Christmas and best wishes, Kosebamse (talk) 14:25, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, IMO it is good enough for GA (in fact it was once a reasonable FA candidate but was not promoted because of a technicality, as the user who had uploaded several pictures has not tagged them under a GFDL-compliant license and did not respond to inquiries). If you look into the talk page, you'll see that the reason for moving it away from the GA list was a similar technicality, and a ridiculous misinterpretation of GA criteria, IMO . Unfortunately there does not seem to be much discussion, and to be honest, one would not expect overly much for such a fringe subject. I'd be delighted to see that article brought into the limelight, but, having written perhaps three thirds of it, I feel that I'm a little too partial to suggest it myself. Merry christmas and a happy new year! Kosebamse (talk) 19:30, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your exemplary handling of the Deletion discussion on James W. Sire NBeale (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 12:49, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't and why would you, its not like I lied about what happened, if anything, can we possibly work together to add info to the page and help expand it. It will not always look like this, you know.

Isla de Tagomago

Hey, do you think Isla de Tagomago passes WP:N? It has an article on the Spanish Wikipedia, anyway.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 04:46, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FreeCreditReport.com

Hi. I think you jumped the gun on tagging FreeCreditReport.com for deletion. In the United States this is a very well known site. I see that you are new to the site, I ask that you take a little bit of time exploring a page on New Page Patrol, maybe google search it, before tagging it for speedy deletion. thanks.--CastAStone//(talk) 05:28, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tim De Groot

Deletion of Tim De Groot, artist and musician from Grand Rapids, MI I believe that you are in error of recommending this man for deletion, although not nationally known, in the GR area he is quite well known. He is personal friends with no less than three of the individuals who are also listed under the same heading; Mark Hekman, Paul Collins and Richard DeVos. Incidentally, Tim attended the Kendall School of Art and Design with Maynard James Keenan, yet Maynard is listed under Grand Rapids; and Maynard to this day doesn't acknowledge ever being from Grand Rapids. To keep in the tradition that Wikipedia is supposed to be about, research. Those researching Grand Rapids ought to know about Tim De Groot. This in NOT a vanity posting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KingSethos (talkcontribs) 01:36, 30 December 2007

Kwesi Amoafo-Yeboah

Mr Kwesi Amoafo-Yeboah is one of the brain behind the introduction of the Western Union money transfer service in Ghana and West Africa. He is the chairman and founder of i-Tel Ghana Limited and the chairman of Telligent Wireless Limited, 2 reputable telecommunications companies in Ghana. Mr Kwesi Amoafo-Yeboah is an independent candidate for the 2008 Presidential Elections in Ghana. Maybe he deserves a page on wikipedia.org

Thanks for reconsidering his article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yamentoulionnel (talkcontribs) 11:23, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An article that you have been involved in editing, A Ticket for Perpetual Locomotion, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Ticket for Perpetual Locomotion. Thank you.

With regards to simply redirecting as an alternative to AfD'ing an article: you can always do that, but of course someone else might revert it, and then you've got a dispute that needs to be resolved somehow. But with such a.. shall we say, "untrafficked" article as this, it's unlikely that an objection will be raised. :-) --Stormie (talk) 08:40, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not delete things too quickly

Mr fire, right then. i have studied these and i believe my article met the criteria. not everything on Wikipedia is a totally 100% verifiable, if you deny that you are kidding yourself. i believe it is fairly notable, more so than many things on this site,and how would one judge that anyway? have you never been greeted with the Manhug? it would surprise me if you have not been. as for verifiability, you can see it on the street, often when two guys meet, such as after a long separation, or if they are family, something along the lines of a Manhug is exchanged. perhaps the name is not entirely "politically correct" but if that was your only problem with it there should have been no argument. as for reliable sources, i must go again to common sense. have you never been greeted this way? or seen hundreds of others greet each other with the Manhug? i sincerely doubt it. there is no concrete evidence that Homer existed, and yet you allow a Wikipedia article on him. so i must ask: why did you delete this page? if you doubt the existence of the Manhug go try it on someone and they will inevitably return it without missing a beat. i see from your talk page that you are into deleting things. i also enjoy the fact that you not only marked my article, but marked it for immediate deletion, therby giving it no fair chance. i find this unsporting.

i do apologize for my manner, it shall not happen again.
