[edit] Yes! Great idea!

I think that's a great idea! You should do that. (Just use Y=Lx(A)^23x) Let me know how it works.--Coffee 12:43, 07 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SkyOS Spam

WAS NOT spam and WAS NOT a link to my Private page either... it was actually a link I came across that was intersting and HIGHLY related to the development of SkyOS...


[edit] Image:Perfecto.icon.svg

Ok, this is the second time I will ask you nicely to change your current flag image that is used in your signature to Image:Flag of Canada.svg. We only need to have one copy of the Canadian flag on Wikipedia. There was a bot who went around and changed all canadian flag images to the one I pointed out to, so we only have to have one Canadian flag image. With you using the "perfecto icon" in your sig, you have added another Canadian flag to the project, which is redundant. I ask you, sir/madam, to take action and change the icon to Image:Flag of Canada.svg. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) Fair use policy 07:16, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PDF reader

Sorry about that. I assure you the link wasn't included for selfish motives. In fact, I have no connection to them, except that I have used and like their free (as in beer) software. I didn't bother to check if it was free software (as in speech). As it turns out, the link existed on that page before my edit...I've reverted my edit, secure in the knowledge that that piece of software is in fact listed.--Joel 01:52, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mallory Knox

You stated that the band is unverifiable, yet they maintain a website and have a page on the Spanish Wikipedia. They meet the "national tour" criteria for notability for bands as mentioned on the talk page. Perhaps we should do a disambig page rather than simply delete the article on the band?

[edit] america4americans.tk

ummm, i wasnt advertising anything i was just putting up a shock site in the shock sites section. thanks for sending me an irrellavent message about something that was in its rightful place. would you have rather me put it in the external links for something that it wasnt even relate to. its people like you who ruin wikipedia for others just wanting to put things in their rightful place. at least im not spamming random websites or just defacing articles.

[edit] Category:The Price is Right pricing games

Wow! You're right! It's amazing what turns people on isn't it! I've thinking of starting a category for Watching Paint Dry - all the related articles would describe and discuss the different colours of paint and how long it takes each one to dry. SilkTork 16:19, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] crif and budterence

Two of my entries have been removed as spam. I just wanted to point out two things:

1. I added a product I am currently working on (a Workflow management suite), to a list ALREADY full of commercial products. I am NOT going to put it back on the page. I don't care about my company's marketing :-) I am sorry for this spam, but the list in the article was already (and still is) full of commercial products, so I thought I was not spamming at all.

2. An external link to budterence.tk was removed as spam. Why? That is the biggest source (and my favourite fan site) about Bud Spencer and Terence Hill (italian actors). Why would it fall under Spam? I don't understand.

Filini | Talk to me | 2006-02-07 6.36PM

1. Again, sorry for the spam. I was researching for my project at work, and when I saw the big commercial list, I thought "Why not my product, too?" :-) I promise I won't do it again.

2. My fault... since budterence.tk was in the same headline as the other spam, I thought you had it removed, as well :-) Unfortunately I won't be a big contributor. I prefer contributing with text only when I'm 100% sure - and I'm not a good trusted source about anything :-P I just wanted to give the best (IMHO) reference about the actor in the article.

Filini | Talk to me | 2006-02-07 6.54PM

[edit] Apologize for advertising

As I told "Ichiro", I didn't realize that linking to content that relates to the subject matter was a violation of Wikipedia policy. Please accept my humble apology.

If there's a way to include content and get credit for the entries, please let me know.


(sorry, I am not good with making headlines and stuff) I am deeply sorry for my link to a website ("battlemaster", just to give you a clue about what I am talking about), I hadnt read the rules.

Again - sorry, it shall not happen again

Eirik

[edit] Page thingy

Hey, it's me again, Shinobi101. My article that I wrote on a band has been deleted. The reason for this was (supposedly) "hoax or band vanity." What the frick does this crap mean? -Shinobi101 Feb 12, 16:38, 2006

[edit] Re: backup-manager

Hi, you left some boiler-plate type message regarding "commercial links — or links to your own private websites" in my user talk. I'm not really sure if I'm supposed to respond in my talk area or in yours. Anyway, backup-manager isn't a commercial link or a private website of mine. I simply added links to backup software I found in the Debian repositories to provide a central point of information on backup software. I noticed there were some pretty good ones missing.

In regards to commercial links, there's a section on that page for "Proprietary" software. Even though I hadn't added any, this does imply that there could be links to commercial software.

[edit] Band thingy reply

The name of the band I wrote about was Trollkotze. I'm not sure why it would have been deleted so soon. -Shinobi101 15:30, Feb 13, 2006

[edit] How do I write a New Article not already attached to anything?

I have figured out how to edit a page, however can find how to create a new article not attached to anything else.

I would like to give a fresh definition not already in wikipedia

Thank you Erik

Perfecto. Actually saw your comments on the article 'Babyrina' article awhile back. You are were right about something...the entry was something personal. Let just say it was a spontaneous outburst of...something personal. You don't know how it feels like to be ruled by a bunch of hypocritical Neo-Nazis cum Pseudo-Taliban. Anyway, I'll be nominating for the 'babyrina' entry to be deleted/removed. Ciao and have a nice day. Babyrina2 06:27, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Moving items to Wiktionary

sorry, i am too lazy to review them. i am leaving it up to the users of wikitionary to handle that. anyway, it has a clear disclaimer that it is a dump. -- Zondor 09:53, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

it's alright. we're all part of the same sister projects arent we? these very short articles can only go towards the wiktionary project. people come onto wikipedia thinking it is an dictionary as well. people over here also have to put up with these "garbage" dictionary entries that keep popping as well. wikipedia is not a dictionary. assume good faith. wiktionary should appreciate all these new contributions that wikipedia attracts. -- Zondor 10:07, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
regarding the deletion log. firstly, these are definately not good enough for wikipedia and so are given to wiktionary. if its not good enough for wiktionary, then its not good enough for wikimedia. simple as that. -- Zondor 10:16, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] K2 Workflow spam

Hi Perfecto, The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workflow also has a reference link to Captaris.com

If you are considering I am spamming, Could you please remove it as well then?

I read the article and thought I know of this other product, so I would add and contribute to the wiki.

rules are for everyone.

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Omega Directive

Hey Perfecto. A little while ago, you added "{{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Omega Directive}}" to Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/2006_February_20. That dicussion was held and closed a month ago (the article was deleted), so I went ahead and removed it from today's log on the assumption that you just made some sort of wikitypo. I just thought I should let you know, in case you had intended to nominate a different article with a similar name or something like that. --Aaron 02:56, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About your message

Hello, I understand no commercial links have to stand on wikipedia. However, edgewall releases trac as an OpenSource product. So linking it to edgewall is AMHA as bad as putting a link to www.novell.com on the suse linux wikipedia article... But okay, I'll try and be carefull next time :)

[edit] Wikipedia French Reference link on "Tarot"

Hi

This link : Andrea VITALI : Tarots - Art and Magic Reference Wikipedia France [18]

is systematically deleted. by Dream Guy.

I cannot go on with this unilateral "deleting" stuff done without any discussion.

Best regards


Alain Bougearel alainbougearel@club.lemonde.fr


Nota bene

I had already explained that the link wasn't self promotion or commercial link on my precedent post :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Bougearel#bougearel.blog.lemonde


If it was self-promotion, then why not delete for the same purpose the link to Villa Rewak about the History fact Sheet?

THE TarotL HISTORY INFORMATION SHEET


http://www.villarevak.org/misc/tarotl_1.html


The case is exactly similar : Tarots - Art and Magic http://bougearel.blog.lemonde.fr/bougearel/2005/12/tarots_art_et_m.html

[edit] standing on principle under fire.

It is distinctly interesting that those at SEW want to pollute wikipedia with links to their own sites of interest and profit, while distinctly overreacting and assuming that every link put in their forums is there for subversive purposes of self promotion of the poster. And yet they try to do it to you. I am awed!

[edit] TvRage Deleted

I can't say I'm surprised, but I am disappointed. All those Keeps, and we're still removed. Not only by a dead rule (which appears to be missing a 0, as I recall it was top 100,000), but because dispite all the arguments presented didn't get everyone to agree at once on the same thing. So I don't know what to think. So now what? JohnQ.Public 09:24, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SYSPRO

Hi: I work for SYSPRO, and I'd like to put in a company description and a description of our great enterprise business software solution. I've taken out all advertising and public relations and have just kept the facts. I've also added a source note, but it still says that it needs to be "wikified". Can you help me to "wikify" it?

Thank you! Dawna Heising dawna.heising@us.syspro.com

[edit] Question about 'Vanity' Articles.

Since you deleted an article I posted, I thought you would be a good person to explain this to me. I wrote an article about the company I work for, BizXchange, and you removed it, however, I find many company articles on the site like this one:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_Development

So how do they get there? Is it required that somebody outside the company writes it or something? I just don't understand the reasoning here. Would you please explain? mailto:leife@bizx.com

[edit] your comments

I've replied on my talk page. Thanks!~ :)

[edit] reply

Perfecto, stop being selective then in who you allow to post. Our site is no different than several others that are appearing on the page, yet somehow their "commercial" links seem acceptable. You need to stop "selectively censoring" various sites and following a uniform policy. If you don't, then you yourself are responsible for the backlash against you.

Hi Perfecto. Thanks for your message regarding submiting copyrighted text (above).

I'd like to add a page on a technology company, similar to what has been done for many companies such as Tibco.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIBCO

I tried to do this before but was told not to accept copyrighted material. What am I doing wrong?

[edit] Notability

You added {{notability}} to GanttProject. To me (based on Wikipedia:Notability (software)) it looks notable. Therefore I removed the notice, and put a note about its notability on the talk page. I hope thats okay. Bawolff 20:19, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
