[edit] 24/24 World Concert

Dear GentlemanGhost, in the past you have shown interest in the article 24/24 World Concert. I have listed it for deletion since I believe that it is too early to establish its notability. I would appreciate if you can take a look at the AfD and add your opinion to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/24/24 World Concert. Best regards, gidonb 13:58, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vanity page?

Please see my answer to your comments at User_talk:Gidonb#Vanity_page.3F. My excuses for the impersonal language of the message above, especially after you referred me to a related article. In order not to lobby one outcome or another, I added this standard message to the talk pages of all those who participated at some stage in editing the page, including its creator. It is always advisable to be consistent in these matters. Best regards and keep up the good work! Regards, gidonb 01:57, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

No offense taken at the impersonal nature of the post. Moreover, I appreciate the kudos and the interest. It's good to know it's not for naught. GentlemanGhost 03:30, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mrozinski

Please leave the deletion notices for my article (Mrozinski). No disrespect intended but my personal info has been edited repeatedly and erroneously, and I want the article deleted. Please comply with my wishes. Mrozinski 14:44, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Gidonb has made a final edit and hopefully you all will leave this page for deletion. It seems to have been the target of interest for people with no stake in its content. Now they can move on to objects of more legitimate concern and leave me alone. I do not know why everyone insisted on editing a page which is about me, but I guess I should be flattered. I hope they are happy to find someone else to harrass. Mrozinski 16:41, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Would you do me a favor and STOP FUCKING WITH MY INFORMATION. I don't know what your problem with me is, I am not a therapist, but I really think you need to take care of your own control issues. By the way you are neither a gentleman or a ghost. Take care of your own life and back off. Let this page be deleted and concentrate on your own excuse for existence. Mrozinski 02:09, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

If you check the history page for Mrozinski, you will notice that I have not made any changes to it since May 31. I have only contributed to the discussion regarding it. GentlemanGhost 02:23, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD Mrozinski

In the past you have shown some interest in the Mrozinski article. I have nominated it for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mrozinski. Regards, gidonb 17:59, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Public Image Ltd.

Howdy, as you may have suspected, earlier versions of the Public Image Ltd. were written in a way that compared the band's history to the plot of Spinal Tap. While this was funny, it wasn't very encyclopedic and so most of the references were removed, but not all of them as you've discovered. Just FYI/FWIW. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 06:44, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] James Randi

I saw the improvement you made to the article about James Randi. Would you look at the article Philip J. Klass, and see if it needs similar improvements? Thank you. Bubba73 (talk), 00:19, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

It looks pretty dense. It may take a while to sort through. I did remove one item, though. In fact, it looks like it was one that you added. Sorry about that. --GentlemanGhost 02:11, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Baklunish Basin has been proposed for deletion. If possible, please comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baklunish Basin. Thanks. --Robbstrd 17:52, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit warriors

You have an "etc." after the three articles you name as having edit wars going on.[1] You might want to list those articles so people can check them out. Getting dragged into an edit war over a newcomer's insistence on adding a "Batman as villain" section to the Batman article is driving me nuts. I've found that strength in numbers can help resolve these things without any one person wearing him/herself to death over it. I'd like to offer my two cents on these edit wars, to lend a hand to whoever is trying to bring them to an appropriate conclusion. Hopefully I won't get drawn into the whole-scale battle, but like I said, just showing strength in numbers, bringing in a variety of perspectives, can really help. Doczilla 07:02, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I didn't list more articles because I'm not sure how many articles this edit war spreads across. Although I have become involved, I suppose I should have mentioned that I am not one of the primary combatants. I decided not to name names on the notice board because I didn't want to make it too personal. Besides, looking at the article histories, it's farily obvious who I'm talking about. But, I see your point. I, too, have leapt into the fray to add my two cents and show strength in numbers. I didn't want to check all of this new user's contributions, because I didn't want to pick on the new guy. But now that I think about it, if there are edit wars occurring on multiple other articles, he probably already feels picked on, so it won't really make it that much worse. I'll do some research and add to the list. Thanks again! --GentlemanGhost 16:35, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
Here's Asgardian's justification for ignoring everything we're telling him about his edit warring: [[2]] Doczilla 02:52, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
P.S. He reverted Man Beast three times today. He can hit his fourth revision if he goes back before 10 a.m. his time tomorrow. Doczilla 02:55, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Well, as you saw, he has now reverted it four times in 24 hours. I'm not sure to whom this should be reported. I've never done that before. (And, yes, Asgardian, I know you'll see this. I don't know what else to do when you refuse to listen to so many people. Yes, tattling is childish. Do you really not see where your behavior is childish?) Thanks for bringing this mess to our attention, Ghost. Doczilla 16:42, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
No problem. I was surprised to find that CovenantD hadn't reported the edit war. It looks like there was some administrator mediation early on, but the war was pretty much going on unabated when I stumbled on to it. As of now, Asgardian has been blocked for 24 hours, so I assume that you figured out how to report the 3RR violation. In case you didn't, all the info about it is here. Thanks for your help! --GentlemanGhost 20:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Update: You might want to weigh in on to Admin Noticeboard entry. It's December and this stuff is still going on. Doczilla 06:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
