[edit] Ni-be-ni-me-ni-cucurigu

At Ni-be-ni-me-ni-cucurigu: do you really think Lulla Rosenfeld merits a link? -- Jmabel | Talk 05:35, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

  • Her main claim to fame is as a translator of Yiddish texts into English; also that she is Jacob Adler's granddaughter and translated and annotated his memoir. When she was younger she did some stage acting (but is not particularly famous as an actress), and I believe she's done some adapatations of texts for the stage. According to IMDB, she adapted one novel for film (Paris Blues, 1961, not a hit although it had a great cast). As far as I know, that's about it. Seems to me to be just below the threshold of who I'd write an article about, though I wouldn't nominate it for VfD if someone else did. Unless I'm missing something big, like many authors, she is a citable source, but not really of encyclopedic notability in her own right. -- Jmabel | Talk 20:49, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 69.50.#.#

How do Thue. Noticed you have blocked one address at the above prefix. Please be aware that this is only one of many IPs producing linkspam from associated IPs (Atrivo/Psychz), see User:Nigosh/linkspammers for a bit more history. Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress has (most of) them logged; it looks like the actor works on a couple of campaigns a week. Additionally, seems now to be starting to seed some pages and then spamming each of them later from a different IP. I think that this activity requires more than a one day ban to a single IP. Do you think that a rather larger, more categorical ban (i.e. 69.50.160.0 - 69.50.191.255) might get the point across. Nigosh 00:49, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

I am reluctant to ban such a large IP range. I have added some comments to the VIP page. Thue | talk 09:39, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
I'm not. Given their continued spam vandalism (spamdalism?), I've blocked the 69.50 range for a year. They're a host, and no edits should be originating from there anyway. -- Cyrius| 01:19, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Haseltine

Hey, I see you restored the prod tag on David Haseltine. Don't do that. As the prod notice states, removing the tag is the correct way of objecting to the deletion. Prod is for uncontroversial deletions only. See the proposed policy at Wikipedia:Proposed deletion#What this process is NOT for. If someone objects, don't put the tag back on, move it to AfD.

So I moved it to AfD for you. NickelShoe 23:23, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Sandbox/Dead End

Please only add one roll at a time to each of the games, as per the instructions at the top of the page. To this end I've removed all of the rolls and words you added except the first one. This keeps it entertaining for everybody who plays and gives people an equal chance of winning. Thryduulf 14:43, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Cricket subcategories nominated for deletion

I have nominated Category:Cricket subcategories for deletion here. This is just a courtesy note because you took part in an earlier inconclusive debate on the same subject, and may wish to comment on this one. If you're not interested, please forgive the intrusion.
