{{Db-spam}}

WP:CSD A6 is not for spam- there is no CSD specifically for spam. Petros471 18:58, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

well, there should be. --CharlotteWebb 19:25, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Proposals for new criteria can be made on Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion. Petros471 19:27, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

My RFA

I would like you to give me a oppurtunity to show you I know what I am doing before you make a judgment on me. I believe I can prove myself. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JakeDHS07 (talk • contribs) .

Charlotte, you might like to assume a little good faith here rather than jumping in accusing people of trolling. This user clearly doesn't understand the RfA process fully, but there is no need to assume malicious intent. Users who go on to become good admins often make a shakey start on Wikipedia. Thanks, Gwernol 18:52, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

User:Misza13's pile!

Thank you for contributing the impressive the pile of supports gathered on my RfA, which passed with a final tally of 0x0104/0x01/0x00. I'm happy that so many people have put faith in my abilities as an admin and promise to use the tools wisely and do my best not to let you down. If I ever may be of assistance, just leave a note on my talk page. Misza13, the rouge-on-demand admin wishes you happy editing!

Speedy on Antiquus

Please be aware: not meeting WP:MUSIC is not a criterion for speedy deletion. It never was, and never will be. I had tried to use WP:PROD to get the article deleted, but by removing the tag, you contested it. Now, I've sent it to WP:AFD. In the future, please try to understand the difference between not meeting WP:MUSIC or WP:BIO and the relevant speedy deletion criterion, which is articles on people or groups of people that don't even assert any importance or significance. Also, in the future, if you see an article up for WP:PROD that you think can be speedied, leave the prod tag in place in case the speedy deletion is denied. Mangojuice^talk 19:43, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Ooops. Okay then, let's rewind. This doesn't need a week of afd. --CharlotteWebb 19:52, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

It's no big deal. In some ways, AfD is superior to Prod: for one thing, if an article goes through AfD, any repost can be speedied; but the opposite is true for Prod. Unfortunately, now that there's an AfD debate, we can't use PROD. I suppose if I had given you the chance to revert yourself, it might have been okay. See Wikipedia talk:Proposed deletion, there's some discussion about this. Mangojuice^talk 19:59, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

AFD

I must have done something wrong here, and now it's getting sent to AFD on a technicality. I would suggest that this process needs a bit more work before we allow people to blindly follow it. --CharlotteWebb 20:07, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

The process is that there are five days to discuss the merits of the article. You will have full opportunity to make your arguments. Under no circumstances, ever, does an AFD nomination get speedily deleted. Fan-1967 20:18, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Circle II Circle (band)

Have you been monitoring the discussion? Might you reconsider your nomination? If you withdraw it, we can speedy keep, and close the AfD. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 22:10, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Stub sorting Barnstar

Greetings. There is a Barnstar for stub-sorting up for proposal here. If you'd like to participate in the discussion, we'd much appreciate it. Thanks, and have a great days. :) SynergeticMaggot 18:23, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, it doesn't seem to be there anymore. --CharlotteWebb 13:54, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Thankyou for your participation in my RfA. Due to an almost even spread of votes between Oppose and Support (Final (16/13/6)) I have decided to withdraw for now and re-apply in a couple of months as suggested. I thank everyone for their kind support of my editorial skills; it meant a lot to me to get such strong recommendations from my fellow editors. If you ever have any hints as to how I can improve further, I would love to hear from you. Viridae^Talk 15:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

GHe's RfA

Hi CharlotteWebb! Thank you for taking part in my RfA! Unfortunately, it ended with a final result of (62/23/7), and with only 73% support, no consensus was achieved. Nevertheless, I'm very flattered that you thought I was already an admin, and hopefully I'll become one someday in the future. :)  G.He 02:05, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Hello! Thank you for participating in my RfA! Unfortunately, it ended with a final result of (32/31/5) which no consensus was achieved. Nevertheless, I'd like to thank you again for your comments and to keep an eye out for me within the next 3 months. If you would like to give any helpful advice, please contact me via my suggestions page for my next RfA. :) SynergeticMaggot 22:38, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

August Esperanza Newsletter

Dates

I'm just putting the template there to fill them in later. I apologize if I have done something injurious. The Coffee Shop That Smiles Upon The River 15:44, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

I'll stop for the day with the dates. I was just putting the framework there, I did not know I was responsible for more than that. I'll poke around at the other "inner workings" stuff of Wikipedia in the meantime to better understand this. Thank you for your two cents. The Coffee Shop That Smiles Upon The River 15:55, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Boston, Ontario

Thank you for closing this AfD. In my opinion, it was a complete waste of time. I was going to reclose it again today, since there really isnt any reason to delete it, but you beat me to it :) SynergeticMaggot 21:55, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

• Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2006_August_20#Boston.2C_Ontario

Thought you'd like to know. SynergeticMaggot 03:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

• Eh, it's not there. --CharlotteWebb 19:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Many thanks for helping fend off the vandals while Gregorian chant was on the main page. I wasn't prepared for the level of vandalism. It's heartening to know how efficient and diligent you WP admins and editors are to revert it! Peirigill 07:20, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup tag on List of gay porn stars

Could you make specific recommendations as to what needs to be done to the page? It's a list. It's sourced, it has an lead section that explains what it is. According to Wikipedia:Lists, I think that's all it needs. Am I mistaken?—Chidom ^talk  06:22, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Can you point me to a policy that says each and every name on a list has to be sourced individually?—Chidom ^talk  17:19, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Are you implying that WP:BLP does not apply to lists? Why, because the people being named are less likely to read it? Think about that for a second. --CharlotteWebb 10:29, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

24 template

the template is like the small version on every other page with a 24 article except the jack bauer article. Please can we bring this page in line with every other as cahnging the whole template is now moot. As this is the only page not in line with all the other please do not now go around chaning all of the other pages i will consider it vindictive and a personal attack.--Lucy-marie 11:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Please fix any unclosed div tags, either in that article or any others where you may have made poorly formatted edits. --CharlotteWebb 11:29, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

i may have made poorly formated edits now we are getting into matter s of opinion.--Lucy-marie 11:49, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I meant formatting errors, to be clear. Like if you use a tag without closing it at the end. --CharlotteWebb 11:51, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

The template as of my last edit is fine--Lucy-marie 11:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm talking about in the articles where you specify a tag with a font size, above the template, and never close the tag. If you could check to see if you've done that anywhere else, you could avoid having to hate me for cleaning it all up. --CharlotteWebb 11:57, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Sameer81 here

We need to get the content of "Reema" into "Reema Khan". "Reema Khan' is an incomplete version of "Reema".

Reema is a popular name in Indian sub-continent and "Reema" page should ideally list all artists/celebrities with their first name "Reema". I tried doing that but you seem to have reverted it.

Kindly make the desired changes.

Thanks! Sameer --Sameer81 17:29, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I have tagged it for an administrator to fix... --CharlotteWebb 17:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

new title for Mary

Good retitle on that. That whole article is a big fat mess, I feel a bit overwhelmed by it. Josh 19:20, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

AfD's

This is a friendly reminder of the AfD's that non-administrators should be closing. We appreciate your work at AfD in closing completed discussions, but per Wikipedia:Deletion process#Non-administrators closing discussions, non-administrators may only close decisions which are unambiguous "keep" decisions, or variants thereof. A couple of the AfD's that you've closed recently wouldn't qualify. Thank you -- Samir धर्म 12:54, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Are you implying, then, that non-administrators must only count "votes", even to the point of giving phenomenally week nn, delete comments equal weight? Let me know if there are any in particular with which you disagreed. --CharlotteWebb 10:46, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

No, I'm not disagreeing with your decisions in the least. If anything, I applaud your enthusiasm for helping with the workload at AfD. But, the policy is quite clear and should be adhered to. This AfD Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Florence_Homan should have been closed by an administrator. Consensus deletion discussions like Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Mouse_potato should also be closed by administrators. Thanks. -- Samir धर्म 12:04, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

British Embassy in Berlin

On what grounds did you revert my edit to this article? Adam 01:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

You know, now I'm not sure. — CharlotteWebb 01:33, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 12:12, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

TJHSST

Hello, you added {{cleanup-infobox}} to TJHSST with edit summary "ughh". What's wrong with the infobox? Thanks. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 04:20, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Take one guess, seriously. This needs to be converted to use an infobox template of some sort. --— CharlotteWebb 11:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. I didn't look at the code. I just looked at it from a functionality standpoint (it looked fine post-rendering). ~a (user • talk • contribs) 17:11, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I just found out that the code you pasted above was a modification of {{subst:High School Infobox}}. It seems like the High School Infobox uses the "<table><tr><td>..." syntax for some reason. Any idea why? Thanks. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 20:17, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

If you found the original infobox, please revert back to a version that uses it, both to make the wikitext of the article easier to read and edit, and to maintain a uniform appearance among school-related articles. The actual table syntax used to create the infobox doesn't matter, as it shouldn't even be visible to people editing the article, only to those making global format changes within the template itself. — CharlotteWebb 20:20, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

The problem with {{subst:High School Infobox}} is it doesn't have these fields: Athletics, Mascot, Average SAT Scores (year), and it calls the Principal a Headmaster. I know your response is probably going to be: well, these fields don't belong in the TJHSST infobox, but I'm only going as far as explaining why the infobox wasn't used unchanged. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 22:45, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

If you think this information is useful for infoboxes, you should add parameters to the template itself. Optional parameters would avoid messing up articles where this information is not available. — CharlotteWebb 14:59, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Ewell organ page

Listen, just what do you think you're doing? I can't revert your idiotic actions because the title I want the page at is currently redirecting to the original title, which I changed some months ago. I know this organ better than any other Wikipedian, so please allow me kindly to name its WP article as common sense - and not Wikipedia naming policy - dictates. --RichardHarrold 20:06, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

• I've reverted the second round of redirects and in light of these and this personal attack ("idiotic"), I've blocked the user indefinitely. — ERcheck (talk) 21:15, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Hmm... indefinte might be a little bit harsh. Did he not have any good edits? — CharlotteWebb 14:55, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

No POV

Please do not insert POV material in the 'Jews for Jesus' article. Thank you.ParadoxTom 20:32, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, that's one way of looking at it... — CharlotteWebb 14:56, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Clean up idaho juvies

What do you think needs changed? If you would tell me I would be happy to do so as soon as possible in order to make the article meet standards. Thank you! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.24.12.173 (talk • contribs).

Unfortunately I can't figure out what you are talking about and looking at your contribs doesn't help either. Maybe it's something you edited using a different IP, or a registered account. If you don't have an account, get one. Until then I'll just reply here. Please link to the page you trying to ask about and I may be able to help. — CharlotteWebb 14:54, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry didn't notice I was not signed on. Idaho Juvenile Detention Centers page you added clean up tag to. Tuluvas2 18:13, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Well it appears to be mostly plain text. I'd suggest breaking up paragraphs as needed, and wikifying key phrases to link to other articles. Also a freely usable photograph of the institution would be good too. — CharlotteWebb 19:30, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Winhunter's RfA thanks

Hi CharlotteWebb, thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which was closed as successful today with a finaly tally of (56/0/3). I will be very careful at first to avoid any mistakes. Please feel free to leave a message in my talk page if you have any comments/suggestions about me in the future. Once again, thank you! --WinHunter (talk) 09:09, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Patrick Ogunsoto

Hi! Why did you close this early? People had been advocating deletion, and it was scheduled to stay open 4 more days. Thanks! --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:10, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

"People" is a misnomer, and I'm not sure where you're getting it. The discussion contains two deletion-advocating comments, both from the same user, who appears to have some kind of point to prove, godknowswhat exactly. Consider if he nominated an NBA basketball player for deletion, he'd probably be blocked for disruption. If you think this should have been deleted, deletion review is that way →.

— CharlotteWebb 19:45, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

What's this? You yourself said:

Keep, meets basic criteria for sportsplayers, not a speedy candidate at this point. --badlydrawnjeff talk 15:12, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

You seem to be sending mixed messages. Let's try being a bit more straightforward. What effect, precisely, are you seeking to achieve? — CharlotteWebb 19:49, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

What mixed messages? 1) Meets the basic criteria. 2) Not a speedy candidate. You still speedied it. I'd rather not take these things to AfD if people can, you know, be approached and change it, that's all. I'm not sure where the hostility is coming from here. --badlydrawnjeff talk 20:08, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I'm assuming your actual sentiment favored a keep outcome, so I'm not sure what it is you want changed, unless it's the productivity level of others. If User:KRBN thinks he had an actual chance of succeeding, I'd consider re-opening/re-listing/whatever for his sake, but short of that, what would be the point? — CharlotteWebb 20:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

The point is that there was no reason to close it when you did, and WP:SNOW is not actionable, since you've noted it. I'm not going to challenge this one any further, but please consider your actions in the future. --badlydrawnjeff talk 21:15, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

RC patrol

Wow, you sure got to Tomo Razmilovic pretty quick - if only everything in this encyclopedia were fixed so quickly. Keep it up...best, Paul 16:56, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Explanation needed

Why did you revert my changes to the "Nigger" article? I'm also curious why the link to my talk page is the blockip command??--Ujhm2 08:45, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Nigger, Niger, and Negro are completely different terms. Implying that they are used interchangeably is, quite frankly, offensive. — CharlotteWebb 08:52, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Negro is technically a different term. There's more than one meaning for niger, though--one of which is "nigger."--Ujhm2 08:56, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

"Technically"? Get out of here. There is a reason that the United Negro College Fund is a highly-regarded charity and the Gay Nigger Association of America is a troll group. If you don't see the difference, you might consider avoiding African-American topics. — CharlotteWebb 13:57, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nicola Tappenden (3rd nomination)

I have noticed when you closed the above AfD, you did not remove the category template, "REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD". By deleting this when closing it pulls the discussion out of the category. I have deleted it from this discussion, but if you could review any other closures you have done recently and remove the tag from them it would be greatly appreicated. Thanks. --Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 14:13, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Apologies, I did not notice the template was there. I usually contribute to AFD discussions by browsing through the daily log pages and using the "section-edit" links along the right side of the screen. It would be better if whoever adds these category templates would put them below the "===Article title===" section heading, rather than above it. Doing so would make the "REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE" template visible in section-edit mode. — CharlotteWebb 13:57, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Rennet

Thanks for restoring the rennet article (Wolfgang 11:36, 10 September 2006 (UTC)) —The preceding comment was actually added by Bioren (talk • contribs).

You're quite welcome, but please be aware that I probably know less about the topic than this goofball does, so I am not likely to contribute to the article's content. — CharlotteWebb 14:13, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

I know enough about this topic - thats I contributed most of the new stuff as well in German as in English - I only do not know, why this nice guy deleted all - so thanks again (Wolfgang 15:04, 10 September 2006 (UTC))

Help desk

Wow! How'd you do that so quickly? I was just starting to clean up double redirects, saw that you had changed my Move (from Help Desk (Web Comic) to Help Desk (webcomic), went back to fix what was now a triple redirect, only to find you had beaten me to that one too! --Bob 18:47, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

I redirected Help Desk to the lowercase generic term. Some of the inbound links will need fixing. — CharlotteWebb 18:50, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that was a Good Thing. I was curious how you do it so fast. Looks like you edit about three pages a minute when you get going. I flounder about with edit boxes and multiple tabs in my browser, and am lucky to get in one good edit a month. --Bob 18:55, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Some Pig!

Oops. I don't get why it would work that way... I thought including a template would replace the tildes with the sig of the person making that edit... oops! Sorry! I put it back... thanks for catching that. Herostratus 16:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

40 days

why did u revert my edits, i think the dendrofilial flower orgasm and the positioning of the text are very noteworthy. In regards to the latter, many film posters do this, see Deuce Bigalo: European Gigalo. The film is about sex and the poster clearly insinuates the text as a penis. Qrc2006 23:02, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Ok, if it's worth mentioning, do so in the trivia section, not in the caption of the infobox. — CharlotteWebb 23:05, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Louis Le Prince

Hi, your "minor" edit in the Louis Le Prince was not really a minor edit right? The problem is you've merged the References (or Sources) section with the Bibliography. Actually I did not used all works existing about Le Prince (the biblio), but only a part of this corpus (quoted sources). By merging the two in a single "References" section it's like i had used all existing books to build the article which is untrue, there is possibly others points of view in some of these books. Cliché Online 17:20, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!

Johnny Cash edits

Thank you for catching the recent edits to the Johnny Cash page by 208.102.42.211. I agree with reverting the changes given how much material was simply blanked without comment. However, I think there was a baby in some of that bathwater, so to speak. I'm going to attempt to extract some of the useful-seeming edits for brevity that seem to have been in among the hacking and cutting.

Just, you know, so as to not make the same error as 208.102.42.211, and actually take things more moderately and talk about them and such. -Stellmach 21:17, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

You know - I've placed that infobox on over 800 articles... and I looked at your change, where you moved the commented out text to the top... and I looked at it again.

Help

Hi, I'm a long-time Wiki reader, but recent editor/contributor. I'm somewhat overwhelmed by what I should do in the case of vandalism. A vandal struck "Buddha" on Sept 11 and you reverted his changes. Since then he has struck "Council of Trent". I don't know what to do now that I realize he's done it multiple times (just an IP address, no username - 72.25.155.34), so I'm writing this here. What do I do next? I reverted his changes. I'm assuming you'll reply here on your page? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MobileOak (talk • contribs) 20:43, September 25, 2006.

Two edits in two weeks, not really a big deal. If it becomes a serious issue, try WP:AIV. — CharlotteWebb 20:53, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Please use the G.W. Bush talk page before editing the opening again. The information you added is already mentioned elsewhere, and is not important enough to be in the openning. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lolakitty (talk • contribs) 00:26, 27 September 2006.

Though I think you're panicking over nothing, I took the time to respond at Talk:George W. Bush. — CharlotteWebb 01:13, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

3RR

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. You currently have three (3) reverts on George W. Bush for a 24 hour period on ending on September 27, 2006. Lolakitty 02:18, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

I see you're having fun, but my first three edits consisted of finding the correct version to revert to. My fourth edit consisted of reverting to it a second time after seeing that your arguments on the talk page were weak and amounted to accusations of bias. I have no further comment. — CharlotteWebb 02:37, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

I was just pointing it out to you, and trying to follow guidelines. Rules are meant to be followed, even when they are as badly written as the ones on Wikipedia.We should try tocome to consensus on this. The nickname is superfluous in the opening paragraph. The pragraph should be reserved for pertinent information. For Bus, this includes the fact he is President, family, and past service as governor of Texas. Do you honestly believe the nickname is equally as important?Lolakitty 03:00, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Halley's Comet

Under the year 467 BC, you have added an entry about Halley's comet first being observed in that year. I have tried to find another reference, other than the one you have added, to confirm this date. The internet reference you refer does not seem to give any explanation to support a first sighting as early as 467 BC.

As you may notice, I am slowly adding entries from various published sources on historic events from 500 BC forwards. None of my source documents have any reference to Halley's Comet being observed as early as 467BC. Can you help with any other sources??

Thanks

I did search the internet for "467 BC" and found, in addition to the online copy of the Sunrise article, several other references to Halley's Comet in the first couple pages of results. [1] [2] [3] [4], and I selected the one that appeared most reputable. One of these links refers to page seven of November-December 1996 issue of Mercury magazine, but I don't have access to this (or anything else in print form for that matter). — CharlotteWebb 09:56, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

That's great, thanks. I was relying on my ancient history text books rather than the Internet. Is it OK with you if I paste your references onto the 467 BC page?? --Chaleyer61 10:45, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

I reverted what? Don't remember it, must have been half-asleep. — CharlotteWebb 03:18, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
