[edit] Jamba!

Thamks for redirecting all those ringtone characters over to the Jamba! article — this seems like the best solution, considering how little information was there, and how US/UK-centric some of the articles were (in terms of chronology, use of the Jamster! name, etc.); not surprising, since I suspect most of it was written by the same teenagers who buy the ringtones. With most of the information in one article, there's more chance it'll be improved. ProhibitOnions 01:17, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] AFD nomination

Please don't make obscure two-letter AFD nominations. If you think that something is non-notable, explain in your nomination what criteria you are applying and why you think that the subject doesn't satisfy those criteria. Uncle G 19:56, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

I have to second that. Give the reason you think something is nn even when it's very clear from the article. Otherwise, great work on nominating! Renata3 04:09, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Please also properly format your AfD entries. Thanks. Arviragus 19:13, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

I was under the impression that AfD entries need either a Delete or Speedy Delete somewhere in the nomination. Your efforts are excellent, and I'm also a relative newbie, so take what I say with a grain of salt! Also, consider capitalising proper nouns and the first word of every sentence, and adding periods to the ends of your sentences. Thanks :) Arviragus 19:23, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why REVERT Oceanography (Clean-up) w/o Constructive Comment?

hey, I've only deleted two not very pertinent links:

you can always put them back , explaining why they are relevant --Melaen 12:10, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

65.30.117.192 12:31, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Mahalo - I put them into discussion for collaborative review & comment.

FYI - I was editing INTO on-line when you triggered revert ... That caused lost effort due to "mutual interference" editing this article!

[edit] red links

Don't remove red links like this. They serve an important purpose - showing which articles we are missing. Also, that his has been researched quite a bit and those links go to the most preferable name for each game. -- Netoholic @ 22:08, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pickpocketing

I reverted the article to a version before all the additional text was pasted in. --GraemeL (talk) 22:34, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed merger of 2004 Upper Deck NBA Exquisite Basketball into Upper Deck Company, LLC

I think incorporating this material in to the article is a great idea. I've been meaning to create sub-sections in this article on the different divisions of Upper Deck. However, 2004 Upper Deck NBA Exquisite Basketball needs an extreme makeover before it becomes a part of the Upper Deck article. --malber 13:59, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to your userpage

Just wanted to drop you a line letting you know that I was the one who made the changes, fixing your babel box and adding an interwiki link to you italian user page. --Admrboltz (T | C) 01:53, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge from Ana Marie Cox to Wonkette proposal

Please read my comments on Talk:Wonkette. I explain why the two are separate entities. --waffle iron 23:00, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for resurrecting Christina Yu

Ciao Melaen - Thanks for reverting Christina Yu! ..I've wanted to this for a month, but was just too lazy. (I originally created the article, and have her consent to publish the material used under GFDL, which was stated on the talk page. A friendly wikipedian deleted the article.) ReidarM 16:40, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rubyfruit Jungle stub

You removed the stub notice from Rubyfruit Jungle. While it is not as short the usual stub (and certainly not an "un pomme est un fruit"-microstub) it lacks any of the analysis (both of the book itself and the response to it - and the effect it had on the world) that characterise an encyclopedia article. Please explain why you removed it. --대조 | Talk 08:23, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Asparagus soup

I removed your speedy deletion tag from this article. Yes, there's almost no content to it save for the link to Wikibooks Cookbook, but considering administrator User:Uncle G felt it wasn't necessary to delete, I'll defer to his judgement on it. Regards, howcheng {chat} 19:56, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comacine masters

Thanks for adding to the article on Comacine masters. I am changing my mind as to the AfD due to your contribution (and have left a note to that effect on the AfD page). Hopefully the powers that be will let us keep it. Blueboar 21:43, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Happy to be useful --Melaen 13:54, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Choronzon (Band)

Hi. FYI, a couple of us tried to clean up Choronzon (Band) which you nominated for deletion. It's seems more keepable to me now if you want to take another look... —Wknight94 (talk) 15:43, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] COTW Project

You voted for Male and Female, this week's Collaborations of the week. Please come and help them become featured-standard articles. -- King of Hearts | (talk) 23:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Articles for deletion/Bhoot

Hi, you nominated the above for deletion. The content of the article has changed since then. Could you have a re-look? --Gurubrahma 16:01, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hotel Hangout Copyright

Hi! You listed the premiere episode of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody called "Hotel Hangout" as a possible copyright violation. Putting aside whether it was (I didn't write it or post it, so I have no vested in it), the page was in need of a rewrite which I did completely and put on the temp page. Can you please guide the process to replace the entire original page (and the copyright violation notice) with the new temp page? Thanks! MKaiserman 04:58, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

ok, no problem ! --Melaen 08:51, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

For great work keeping the wiki cleansed of copyvios!
For great work keeping the wiki cleansed of copyvios!

[edit] Kung Fu Master cleanup message

What do you mean exactly? See Talk:Kung Fu Master --80.226.174.49 22:37, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Can't you help fixing it? I think the message has also to be in Wikipedia:Cleanup (to be found) with reason why to cleanup. --80.226.183.16 18:59, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
I think the article goes way up into detail aabout the game, cheats are not encyclopedic, anyway I've removed the tag --Melaen 21:10, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup on The Contender (TV series)

I was just wondering if the 'cleanup' notice you posted at The Contender (TV series) was aimed at anything in particular.

Grazie
Are you a stickler for grammar? If so, I'd be delighted if you could pass the proverbial fine-toothed comb through my user page. Thanks! 21:51, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Detailman

Please put a rationale for the {{npov}} tag in the talk page of the Detailman article. That way, the editors who are concerned with "Detailman" may correct your misgivings. Thanks! Copysan 02:31, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 23% for major edits and 24% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 150 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 00:03, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Literati (game)

Using the search terms literati yahoo -site:yahoo.com, Google gives about 186,000 results. A Google Groups search turns up 1,070 hits. As I am writing this, at 1:15AM US East Coast time, there are comparable numbers of people playing Literati, chess and spades. There are over 80 lounges (think chat rooms) occupied by more than half a dozen people right now. The total number of participants currently is well over 6,000. I feel like late Monday night/early Tuesday morning is probably a low point in traffic. I'm not sure what notability guideline an online board game variant falls under. It's certainly as notable as the scrabble variants listed in the see also section of Scrabble. —WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL• 06:53, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Songhua Stalemate

Why is this article put up for copy to Wikibooks? I wrote the text myself, and I dont see how it is anything but an encyclopedia article. Remy B 08:50, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ty Votaw

If you don't understand the importance of the Commissioner of the LPGA Tour, that just shows that you are ignorant about sports. Despite his very unusual name he gets 46,600 google hits, which is at least 50 times the required level. Anyway, the article you tagged was a duplicate, so I have redirected it. Golfcam 03:20, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] January Surprise

Should January Surprise be considered a recipe or a cocktail? I put it in the category of Cocktails with gin, but don't really have any strong feelings about it either way. -- ProveIt (talk) 22:02, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Margalla Hills National Park

I have created a stub for Margalla Hills National Park. Can you please remove following violation. 09:57, 12 March 2006 (hist) (diff) Margalla Hills National Park (copyvio) (top) Siddiqui 05:49, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jane Nelsen

This article is not eligible for speedy deletion, as it asserts notability. Please familiarise yourself with WP:CSD if you're going to tag articles for speedy deletion :) Proto||type 19:00, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notability on salisburyboy

The salisburyboy page satisfies the webcontent criteria and the biography criteria as salisburyboy is a famous person viewed by over 25k people.

Furthermore, you should give someone more than 5 minutes to finish a page before deciding if their page is valid.

[edit] Categories

Please don't split up decent-sized plant categories (e.g. Category:Saxifragales) into numerous minuscule categories containing only a tiny handful of articles - it makes checking for recent changes a tedious pain! - thanks, MPF 23:53, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zipmic notabillity?

Hey i was wondering why you think Zipmic (comic) shouldn't be here? :)


[edit] Dragonslayers notabillity?

I've added an argument for why dragonslayers is notable enough to not justify deletion on the talk page if you wish to check it. There are plenty of subjects covered in wikipedia which are of interest to fewer people, so i feel that it deserves an article.

[edit] Gargoyle Newspaper

Hey, I saw that you added a stub marker to an article I just created ("Gargoyle Newspaper"). I tried to move the article, but my account was too new, so I made a new article ("The Gargoyle (newspaper)") and did a cut-and-paste move. Could you delete the old page? Sorry if this isn't how I'm supposed to go about doing this.

[edit] The Last Heathen

Yes, it sure does look like an advertisement. In fact, it's copied from the web site of the author's literary agent. I considered just deleting the whole thing as a copyvio, but instead I just properly sourced it to the literary agent, who probably planted the article. The book really did win prizes and has good reviews, so it deserves an article. --John Nagle 21:15, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:SteveWolfer

Hello, I saw the 'boxes' on the "The Disowned Self" and "Disowned selves" pages.

I'm too new to Wikipedia to understand what if anything my next step might be.

I was looking at the list of psychological topics and saw "Disowned selves" in red. I'm very familiar with what Branden means by this and I've studied Hal Stone's work and spoken with him a few times when in Los Angeles, so I thought I'd make a start of an article.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. (For example, is this the right place to put this. Or should I have typed all of this into the Talk pages behind the articles?)

Thanks, SteveWolfer 00:06, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

It's all very well to add {{advert}} to a new page, but I find it's much more fun to find the website they C&P'ed from and do them for violating (almost certainly) there own copyright :-) Algebraist 16:21, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Taylor Stevens

I know she's not notable since Taylor Stevens articles have been deleted left and right[1], which is why I did this as a subpage of my Username and not as an actual article, hoping not to offend anybody.

[edit] Ann Taylor (retail chain)

I fully understand why you put the {{advert}} tag on the Ann Taylor (retail chain) article. I created the article as it is references in about two dosen articles, several of which I have worked on. As a male who has had little experience shopping at any of the chain's stores, I was forced to use publicly available information as a source. Wherever possible, I eliminated the advertising nature of the text and where necessary, quoted terms used by the company to desscribe their products and services, marked in quotations. In the future, if you are unwilling to pitch in yourself and make the edits you feel are required, it would be far more helpful to me (and other Wikipedians) if you would take the time to describe the specific issues you have with the text, rather than just marking it with a tag and doing no more. Alansohn 15:15, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Darryl Worley (album)

Buon giorno! Just curious as to why you added Category:Dar Williams albums to this article (Darryl Worley (album)) with this edit. I'm not familiar with Worley's work--is Dar Williams featured on this album? Hope you can clear that up for me! Grazie! --Rkitko 08:32, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey Melaen

I am authorized to use the information provided on the "458 SOCOM" page I started. I am friends with the owner and he autorized me to use the VERY SAME INFO on my site dedicated to the round on www.458SOCOMforums.com

So please contact myself or the ower Marty Ter Weeme of Teppojutsu.com to clear this up.

IT DOESNT help anyone when the info which is allowed to be used, to only be locked up...thanks

My email is Jonesja@mac.com

Let me know if I can help further this.

[edit] Prucol

Hi. You locked my PRUCOL article on copyright violation. Sorry, I'm new at this and that was a first draft. You're too fast. Please look at it again as I posted, several days ago, a new version. Thank you. Morlesg 02:52, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Theta Beta Potata PUNK HOUSE Deletion Review

[edit] Theta Beta Potata

This article was first started by me and was deleted back in May '06. I was reading the punk house article and saw that the link for the TBP article was no longer red so I clicked on it and there was an article back up, started by another user. I dont know who started it because, it was deleted soon after I saw it. The decision made in the "Article for Deletion" debate should be reconsidered. The article is about a punk house not a fratenal organization. It seems that the debate, run by User:ChrisB and results were reported by User:Mailer Diablo. I will post this on their talk pages. This is the first time I have requested a deletion review so please let me know what else I need to do. If there is anything. I am on wikipedia frequently and I want to learn. Thanks.

[edit] Moving Ameglio

I noticed that you put the {{moveto}} template on Ameglio. There doesn't seem to be any controversy about this move, and the target page, Pietro Ameglio, is open. This means that the page can be easily moved by using the move tab at the top of the page. Is there some reason why the tag was added instead of the page just being moved? Thanks. -- kenb215 04:33, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Greetings! You suggested that Nescit cedere be merged into Oglethorpe University. You do not seem to have said why in your edit summary or on the talk page of either of those articles. Unless you have any objections, I will remove the merge template from Nescit cedere. --Benn Newman 21:22, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
