[edit] Proposed Deletion For Article
You proposed deletion for the article 11978571669969891796072783721689098736458938142546425857555362864628009582789845319680000000000000000 (number), and I am not sure why.
In the article, it is mentioned why the number is notable (that it is the first factorial number above one google). Although the article is short, it still has content.
Please let me know your feelings on this subject. Thank you.

[edit] withdrawing AfD nominations
I saw your comment on the Brenda Freese deletion discussion. I'd like to withdraw it, but I don't know how. Can you help me? --Kchase02 18:46, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi, still very much getting used to how this durn thing works. Thanks very much for your edit on Dar Sai.

[edit] Blnguyen's RfA
Hello Hit bull, win steak. Thank you for your support at request for adminship which ended at the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0), and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. If you need any admin assistance, feel free to ask me, and naturally, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out and I look forward to working with you in the future, and keep moooooooing.

[edit] Re:User:Craiky333
Well, the deleted pages contained various rather nasty insults and other nonsense. This, combined with the attack content added to articles about football players (Ruud van Nistelrooy, Didier Drogba) led me to my decision to block the account. - Mike Rosoft 14:50, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Deletion of Monkey Kettle
Hi there,
Thanks for having a look at the Monkey Kettle entry I created this afternoon. Sorry if it doesn't seem like it has enough Interest (I think that might be the reason), or if it seemed like a Vanity Entry - I was just browsing through the list of UK Literary Magazines, and came across several magazines similar in size and popularity to ours, so thought I would try adding an entry for our own magazine, along the basis of "well, if they're on there, presumably we should be on there". Is that not appropriate?
Or do I need to add more info to the entry? Cheers,
Matthewmt 15:06, 12 June 2006 (UTC)x
Oh right - well, I didn't actually add that myself, I only noticed for the first time today, and all I did was change the spelling of my name, cos whoever added it got it wrong. I'll wipe my name off forthwith! ;-) So it wasn't you that put the Monkey Kettle entry up for deletion?
Thanks - am slowly starting to get to grips with this!
Matthewmt 15:15, 12 June 2006 (UTC)Matthewmt
Cheers - it looks like Friday is not a fan of something called "cruft" which I guess the article as it stands could be classed as. I'll have a look in my archives and see what else I can add to reduce the "cruftness". Thanks again.
Matthewmt 15:21, 12 June 2006 (UTC)Matthewmt
That would seem to be what those other mags have done. Cheers, I'll try that.

[edit] RFC
Hi. Thanks for informing me about that : I probably wouldn't have noticed otherwise. Morwen - Talk 15:57, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RFCU
No, you did it fine. As a checkuser clerk, Essjay wants us to be impartial and not look like we are making decisions or rulings on cases; however if I see a missing piece of information that might be useful to a case I will often add it. Thatcher131 17:58, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- I did however remove your comment for the reason indicated in the edit summary. Checkuser requests should not deteriorate into pissing contests between accusers and acusees. (Trust me, no one will be fooled.) Thatcher131 21:40, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
-
- In fact, if you want to pursue this immediately (without waiting for the check) you could move for the RFC to be dismissed, as it is clear that single purpose accounts (polite name for meat puppets) are to be treated as single accounts just like sockpuppets (WP:SOCK). So the RFC was certainly certified in bad faith, and the mediation was probably also carried out in bad faith since, by sometimes no logging in at all, he/they gave the impression of being at least 3 people with that view. (In fact, someone with a Pacbell IP address has been pushing since July 2005 to include Amber's boyfriends in Amber Benson, against the wishes of a group of IP addresses trying to take it out.) Thatcher131 21:47, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
-
-
- well, the mediation case has a mediator. For the RFC, I'm not really sure. Read around the instruction page and see if it mentions anyone responsible for keeping an eye out. You should also tell Morwen, he would probably be the best person to make a motion for closure. Thatcher131 22:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
-
-
-
-
- Regarding Mackensen's reply about not giving out IP addresses, if you look at Cuthbert11's first edit (to an AfD) and read the rest of the AfD, you will find a remark from a Pacbell IP that is signed Cuthbert11. However, I'm not sure how you would use the information, since IPs change and should only be given short term blocks. IMO, any SoCal IP that acts like Cuthbert can be treated like Cuthbert, even without certified proof. Thatcher131 17:18, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the heads up on the Amber Benson mediation
Thanks for the note. I have decided to suspend the mediation, to see how the RFCU comes up and to give the parties a time out. I also decided to strike all personal attacks on the page and my hands are still covered in blood! BrownHornet21 02:16, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Erik carter
You tagged the above article as a speedy under CSD A7 and rightly so. i've deleted it. i've also noticed that you have already appraised the creator of that article that it may be deleted. it is a good thing to let them know as it helps them in understanding the system here - unfortunately very few speedy taggers do this.

[edit] My deletion of Shem booth
hi there Hit bull, win steak. Due to the fact that nobody notified of the commentary at WP:ANI on my deletion of this article, I managed to miss the post as the headline didn't mention me specifically - I was unable to respond to the claims of the user before it went dead. There is a long response I posted to the user in question on my own page - but in short, the claim to notability that was present in his autobio was that he was a PhD student. AFAIK, I have seen random PhD students speedily deleted before and so, I wrote that comment in the deletion summary to make clearer the a7 reasoning. As for his claims that I had many angry messages about my deletions, well that is true, but they were about expired prods and a repost of Kai Wong, so I had to reiterate that I have not being roguely deleting stuff, just in case me might have misled anyone. Thankyou, Blnguyen | rant-line 03:28, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] My RfA thanks
Hello Hit bull, win steak, and thank you for your support at my Request for Adminship, which succeeded with an overwhelming final count of (105/2/0). I was very pleased with the outpouring of kind words from the community that has now entrusted me with these tools, from the classroom, the lesson in human psychology and the international resource known as Wikipedia. The Free Encyclopedia. Please feel free to leave me plenty of requests, monitor my actions (through the admin desk on my userpage) and, if you find yourself in the mood, listen to some of what I do in real life. In any case, keep up the great work and have a fabulous day. Grandmasterka 06:11, 19 July 2006 (UTC) |

[edit] RFA?
Looking at your contributions, I think that you would be a good administrator. Are you interested in this? If so, I'd be glad to start working on a RFA nomination for you. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 17:45, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
- While the suggestion is quite flattering, it is most certainly too early for me to consider being an administrator quite yet. I feel like I've just recently gotten my bearings ;) Additionally, I'm about to move out for college so it's going to be really hectic very soon and I'm not sure if I'll be able to have an internet service lined up. So basically, right now would be really bad timing for me. Thanks for the thought though :) --SeizureDog 21:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Belated thanks
Hey Hit bull, I just wanted to say thanks again for helping me out with this misguided and confusing AfD way back when. It may not have seemed like you did much, but it was quite helpful to me and I often remember it when I'm helping out a helpless newbie. Thank you!--Kchase T 04:21, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- (Replying here, as per your statement on your userpage). Thanks for your kind words. You've developed into a good editor, and I'm glad I was able to help. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 19:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No wikilayering
I never reqposted anything after I was made aware it is copyrighted. This is the problem with El_C delete of the history page cause we now have no record of time line. I first noticed the article is gone and then recreated it, only later seeing the accusations of copy vio. Zeq 14:41, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough. As long as you don't do it again, now that you understand the copyright issues, then we shouldn't have any further problems. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 14:43, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
-
- sure. Zeq 17:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Question
I was wondering why, within your first few edits, you could participate in AfDs and RfCs, and welcome yourself. Are you a quick learner, or had you been editing anonymously for a while? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 21:12, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- There's a reply on your talk page. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 21:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- ZOMG I WILL HAVE TO BLOCK YOU INDEFINITELY AND I WILL BE GREETED BY THE COMMUNITY AS A HERO. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 21:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- Heh. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 21:34, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kudos for your user name
- Ok, I admit, I kept reading it as "Hit bull, win streak". I'm thinking to myself, "What the heck? Is bull some kind of a baseball term I never heard of?" Of course, I realize I was having selective lysdexia. So I figured I would pass along my LOL and a gratuitious :) for your efforts. — MrDolomite | Talk 21:03, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Whoops!
Fixed now. 1ne 16:04, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
Thanks for coming to my defense with regards to the recent complaint levied against me by Quadzilla99 on the admin noticeboard. I've spend a fair bit of time cleaning up some of the pages started by and edited by this user, however he feels that many of my edits and requests for sources are a form of harassment. Again, thanks. Yankees76 14:15, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] References
On the admin thread you noted:
- "I have to say that missing citation tags don't seem unreasonable to me, since the article does not include any reliable sources, just references to Apple-produced documents."
What is unreliable about Apple-produced documents? Many of my articles use the company's own documentation (manuals), and this is the case for the vast majority of the articles on software that I can find.
Is this actually a problem? If so, can you point to a policy on this? I looked over CITE and ref pages, and I can't see anything that seems to suggest this is a bad ref.
Maury 14:32, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
-
- Some of the statements in the AppleShare article conform to this standard (such as system requirements and release dates), while others do not (the section on the Advanced Technology Group, the re-use of code within Sherlock, etc.).
- Ok, these certainly apply. Now here's the problem: I was sitting there when Steve Cisler, of ATG, gave the demo of Rosebud in 1992, and before I was laid off and the admin in question deleted it all, I had personal e-mail from him stating that AppleSearch was built from Rosebud.
- So these are facts, and they are true. Is there some sort of guideline for using direct personal evidence? Maury 15:24, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
-
- Ok, more questions. So WHY can't one use your own personal experience as a ref on a 3rd party demo? I'm not sure I understand the logic there. The basic chain of logic is "I saw Steve say this is AppleSearch". So what is the (potential) problem with this? That I am incorrect? It would appear that simply publishing that statement doesn't do anything to correct that problem. But as you point out, the book in question directly supports the statements -- in fact it seems the author saw the same demo I did.
- And I have to describe it too, we were at what was basically an all-DOS show about BBSs (remember those?) and up comes this demo. The room was packed, overflowing into the hallway. Up comes the Rosebud demo, and you could (literally) hear the gasps of awe. Really, gasps. Standing ovation at the end (well, some of us were standing to begin with...). And then they release AppleSearch, which was about as cool as watching paint dry. *sigh* Maury 15:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
---
More guidance needed. I recently added the ref you found (thanks!) and removed one of the cite needed tags. Now it looks like I'm involved in a revert war with Tom over whether or not that source also covers the other (randomly inserted) cites in the same paragraph.
So two questions:
- is there official policy, or even guidelines, on when a cite is required, as opposed to a footnote? Even Tom agrees that the statements in the article are covered in the footnotes. So is there any obligation to add in-lines? I only hesitate because in this particular case the tags were added seemingly at random by someone I believe is completely unfamiliar with the topic in question (although that may be a ruse, who knows). Some of them make sense, but others are silly, and still others examples were not tagged when even I think they should have been. So is there any obligation on my part, or anyone else, to fill these in?issue
- is there any guidance on whether or not an editor can remove a cite needed tag?
In this particular case one of the tags is on a release date being "about 1991". Even if this statement were untrue, which it isn't, that error would not materially effect the article itself. So should I ignore it, as I am inclined to do?
I find it difficult to believe that a cite needed tag is a one-way operation.

User:Khoikhoi wants to be admin. Please contribute in a neutral voting.
Here is my oppinion in vote; "Strong Oppose User:Khoikhoi is leading a group of user, menaging and communicating among group genarally by e-mails not in talk pages directly.This group acting in a systematic way to revert articles, when one of member make 3rv reverts than one another continue with 4rv(against punishment for violating 3rv rule). All member of group are very radical nationalist. They are working generally Turk/Turkey and Religion related articles to put anti-Turk POV and anti-Islam POV. Some of the member are suspected as Suck poppet, one is clear; User:Tekleni and User:Tzkeai, till to 03 Oct.2006 there were two users , at that date User:Tzkeai redirected to User:Tekleni.No need like an Administrator in WIKIPEDIA Mustafa AkalpTC 11:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)"

[edit] Comment request
Hit bull, win steak, you've helped me out before, and I need your assistance again. Please review Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Messenger2010 and comment. I normally wouldn't request a favor like this, but I feel very strongly that there are Wikipedia articles where information is being serverly compromised to push an anti-soy bean/soy protein agenda - and it's all being perpetrated by one user. Thanks in advance. Yankees76 04:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry! I though you were an admin! Thanks anyways! Yankees76 05:14, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sorry
Sorry if I have been coming close to the line on NPA. I've been dealing with a rather tense situation involving a coordinated guild of POV pushers and my frustration at them may have been spilling over into other areas. RunedChozo 16:34, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Vandalism
Hey, actually I did look at it. I wasn't sure if it was some kind of surrealist thing between you and the vandal or if it was a personal attack, and since it was their last edit I didn't block them. I try to be careful when vandalism is directed against user talk pages because it can be tricky, sorry if I left you hanging and thanks for the note. Kaisershatner 18:42, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
- And look at the edit history, I removed them 10 minutes after their last edit; they hadn't done anything since. They've since been blocked by aeropagica, but that was at 18:33 and was well after the fact. Blocks are technically not supposed to be punitive. Anyway, I hope they don't bother you, and sorry if I made an error here. Kaisershatner 18:45, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
