[edit] Travis insco 4 {count 'em, 4) g hits

Egg zackly! Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 07:36, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Creator removed the bloody speedy tag at least once. I figured I'd help him out. He may not be too happy with us right now. Someone blocked his user ID because it was . . . not a good choice. I'm content to leave the hangon tag in case there is some sort of notability derived from the bands the subject works with. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 08:46, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good lord, you had to welcome yourself!

let me give you a smile to make up for it.

Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile at others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Happy editing!

Well, I figured I knew how so why not? lol. And thanks for the Smile! Nashville Monkey 07:47, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Help

I am available to help; I've left the user a message about his behavior and will monitor the situation to take further action as needed. Essjay (Talk) 09:34, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Absolutely not! I'm never too busy to help users who need it. You should feel free to ask me for help anytime you need it. Essjay (Talk) 09:48, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A little encouragement

Vandal Whacking Stick

I don't get to give this out as much anymore, but you definately deserve it. Good work at what you're doing, keep it up, and use this where necessary to keep the vandals in line. Essjay (Talk) 10:24, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I really appreciate it! Nashville Monkey 10:25, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] First see link of AboutUs.org in use

(just put on bottom of references) Hi Nashville.. Come back to AboutUs.org debate on deletion.. Visit link now on page showing use.. It's cool and we need to be proactive on Wiki- not of "The World is Flat" philosphy. --162.83.180.170 18:31, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I've looked again, vote not changed. Nashville Monkey 01:28, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, I resent the implication that by voting Delete I have a "The World is Flat" philosphy[sic]. My true philosophy is that articles should have value and merit. Nashville Monkey 13:53, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kalduny

Hello, I nominated Kalduny for deletion mainly because I couldn't verify anything in the article. Someone has now taken the time to add two references to the article. The article still has problems such as weasel words (E.g. "Some people maintain it came from...") but I am changing my vote to Keep. I thought you might like to know. Johntex\^talk 15:54, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm willing to give it more time to see how they clean it up. Changing vote. Nashville Monkey 20:47, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Generally, AfD's run for 7-8 days. They are sometimes allowed to run a little longer if consensus has not been found, if new information is being presented, or simply because admins have a backlog of work and they haven't gotten around to closing them all. They are sometimes closed early, but that is unusual. Generally, when they are closed early, it is because they are obvious "keep"s. They are sometimes closed early with deletion if they meet one of the criteria for speedy deletion. I don't think I have ever seen one closed early according to WP:SNOW. I think the feeling is to err on the side of caution. If there is truly no chance it will be kept, then seven days is not that long to wait for it to be deleted.

Thanks for the information ! Nashville Monkey 22:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fixity of species

I speedied it as a G4, since it was already deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Linnaean Lawn, and is currently at DRV. It's actually the second recreation - Rama's Arrow speedied it previously. The other article was also deleted - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Orchard Theory. Thanks for letting me know. Guettarda 13:45, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

But I suppose you already knew that, since you participated in the deletion debate ;) Guettarda 13:46, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm, yes...we just went through this yesterday. And I see it's already been deleted, yet again. Good catch Nashville Monkey, thanks for spotting the recreation, and thanks to Guettarda for good use of his mop. Also, welcome to WP; you've accomplished quite a lot in a brief time here  : ) Doc Tropics 15:43, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks to both of you for the prompt replies. I do what I can... Nashville Monkey 18:47, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
