Hi there. Got gripes? Put 'em up. Ifnord 03:49, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
I have rewritten this article so as to establish notability under WP:NMG. I would be grateful if you could have a look.
- I have removed my nomination after seeing the re-write. Ifnord 17:52, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
Ifnord, thank you for the definiton. I looked it up just before I received your message. I did not create fake accounts. Please check the IP's of corser and iammaggieryan. I asked them both for help - iammaggieryan did considerable work on United_students_against_sweatshops and corser did not have time to do many edits. We're trying to work with the moderators, so please let us know what we can do to improve the articles.jimotron, November 3
Hi Ifnord. You recently tagged this article as a copyvio, with source answers.com. I should point out that answers.com, and numerous other websites, copy information from Wikipedia consistent with the GFDL licence. So, citing anything as a copyvio of a page on answers.com is wrong. There is a comprehensive list of mirrors and forks of Wikipedia - these should be excluded from discussion when considering copyvio issues.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, please let me know. Mindmatrix 01:50, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
Civil War Unit
I went back and added some content to the Civil War pages you flagged. See my talk pages for my comments.evrik 20:40, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi,
Some content has been added to GBU-37.
Just letting you know that I'm recommending that there is now consensus to keep.

Nuggeting
You based your opinion merely on the presence of a load of schoolchildren defending this article. Please re-visit both the article and the discussion. Please also visit Talk:NUGGET#Cleanup and consider adding the article to your watchlist and assisting in the effort to keep the article clear of unverifiable additions and original research by schoolchildren. Uncle G 15:23, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
- What this appears to be is a collection of school kids who cry out, "Listen, you old farts! We have this funky new word/concept/idea and we're going to use it, spread it around, and grab this chance at immortality. If you disagree, we'll make fun of your self-inflated intelligence." So be it. Then make a web page and tell your tale. But, this isn't encyclopedic. I voted delete, and made it strong delete because of all the silly puppetry. I don't see my vote changing. Ifnord 05:33, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
I've changed my vote on this AfD to keep, based on evidence of radio play, record releases, and tours that leads me to believe that this band is sufficiently notable to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia. BDAbramson T 02:41, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
Can you look at this pleese
I use wikipedia all the time, but I don't have an acount. You say on your page that you propose articals for deletion. I found this Substub (Dated Dec 1st 05!!) at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandip The entire text of the artical is :
Mandip is an Indian name, which means "Light of the mind". There are no famous Mandips, however, a mention must be given to Mandip "Bansal" Singh, Romancer and Mandip Singh Nijor (Technologist) of U.K.
If you think it would benifit the wikipedian comunity please put it up for deletion.
Please help if you can!! Thank you in advance!!
- Everyone, with or without a wikipedia "account", can proposed an AfD (Article for Deletion). I am very suspicious of people who would ask me to do it for them, usually there's an ulterior motive. If you wish to learn more about proposing an AfD, click this link[1]. Ifnord 21:52, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
I have turned this article into a school stub. I believe that there is enough verifiable evidence to justify a standalone article. I would be grateful if you could take a look. Capitalistroadster 19:07, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
"You rock"
lol.. Thanks.
Why? :) --Mistress Selina Kyle (Α⇔Ω ¦ ⇒✉) 04:15, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
== A quick note you wrote to Mistress Selina Kyle==
you wrote the following two notes to User talk:Mistress Selina Kyle
- Just a quick note to say that you rock. Had to tell you. Ifnord 04:14, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh. Why do you rock? Nothing specific; I don't think you can just do one thing, no matter how nifty, and get the stamp of coolness. But as I was nosing through your talk page, comments people have left about you, and your replies - I was struck by how you came across. It's good. Ifnord 04:47, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Please note, that I just recently posted to her talk page, and my comments along with another comment that was critical of her were quickly removed and not responded to... which makes me suspect that there's a reason she "came across" well. Themindset 08:18, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Themindset doesn't like me because he has a big fat crush on Eminem and I uploaded a picture of him how he looks without the normal huge amount of makeup, extra-complimentary lighting and photoshop touching-up he has in his press photos: A scrawny little geek. ;) --Mistress Selina Kyle (Α⇔Ω ¦ ⇒✉) 15:21, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
I have no idea why he would write on my talk page. I read his, he sounds like a pretentious snot. Ifnord 17:17, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- You know what, I don't edit out stuff that makes me look bad. So yeah, maybe I do look like a pretentious snot. I'd be ashamed to edit my talk pages the way Miss Selina does, it's quite unbecoming. Themindset 17:22, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
And why come to me to complain? It's her talk page, I wouldn't presume to tell you how to edit yours. And I certainly wouldn't go to some third person's talk page and whine about you. Ifnord 17:31, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Point taken. But insults, nice - you guys are made for each other. Themindset 17:53, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
hmm
Didn't notice the "This user is a mental health provider" tag on yoru userpage before (or maybe it wasn't there)
- Are you a psychiatrist or something?
Just curious :) --Mistress Selina Kyle (Α⇔Ω ¦ ⇒✉) 18:58, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ha.
- So what's "something"?
- And by the way you realise those templates link to non-existent articles?
- Since you're obviously experienced and maybe even an expert on the subject, maybe you should do something about that :) --Mistress Selina Kyle (Α⇔Ω ¦ ⇒✉) 19:17, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Arbcom elections
Hi. Unfortunately your Wikipedia user account was created slightly after the cutoff for voting on the current round of ArbCom elections. The voting page says:
- In order to vote, you must have an account registered on or before September 30, 2005 and 150 edits by the start of the election (January 9)
Your account was created on 3 October 2005, so unfortunately, according to policy, your votes will not count towards these elections. I'm sorry. Regardless, welcome (belatedly) to Wikipedia! Are you from Brisbane? - Mark 04:21, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Thank you, I have accepted. Let's see what the panel thinks :-) - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 22:49, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
I removed your expert tag from hypersonic in adding material. Copyediting is always welcome, and if you want to re-add the tag I won't be offended.AKAF 13:20, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

An AfD that you recently particpated in has been recycled. Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of state-named Avenues in Washington, D.C. (second nomination). - brenneman(t)(c) 05:28, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
66.138.150.228
Looks like 66.138.150.228 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) is in Texas, and probably a school, from the time stamps on the vandalism, as well as the style. I'll see if he comes back tomorrow. Happy editing, Antandrus (talk) 04:29, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
No consensus?
I'm confused why you closed the Rebecca J. Nelson AfD vote as "no consensus" rather than "keep." The vote, after relisting after more information about this scientist had been added was Keep=12 (or Keep=13 if you count a pre-relisting vote that was later changed) and Delete=2. Of those two votes for deletion, one was by a person who explained that they personally thought the article should be kept, but that an article on a Nobel winner that they started was deleted so they thought this one should be, leaving us with one unambiguous "delete" vote after relisting. I would have thought that would be a consensus for "keep," not a finding of "no consensus." Can you explain how this works? Crypticfirefly 01:02, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi Ifnord, thanks for your support in my RFA, which succeeded. If I can ever improve or help in any way, please let me know! :) —Quarl (talk) 2006-02-16 11:44Z

The Monotypes Article
I have a question on a fairly recent revision you made to the The Monotypes article. I checked the history and it said you removed a "weasel word." I was just wondering what weasel words are and some examples of weasel words... so perhaps I can write better articles in the future. Thanks, VincentGross 05:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
