User talk:Petros471

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am currently busy in real life, so I am not taking on anything new at the moment. I will still try and deal with messages left here but please be aware that it may take me a while.

Hello! Welcome to my talk page, feel free to leave a message for me at the bottom of this page, using a new heading for new topics. Please try and use descriptive headers, as it helps with my archiving (I reserve the right to change the header for this purpose).

[edit] UPA

Hi! Whilst it was fun being overseer for the award, it would be lovely if you now resumed you previous and rightful position :). Thanks and kind regards, —Celestianpower háblame 18:18, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm trying (pretty successfully!) to be inactive on Wikipedia at the moment, but I suppose being coordinator for a round or two isn't too much work. Let me know when the current round is finished and I'll do the next one. Petros471 15:47, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Taarma (Black Emperor Jogezai) (band)

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=Taarma+%28Black+Emperor+Jogezai%29+%28band%29

they're a signed band with a album (Remnants of a Tormenting Black Shadow) due to be released 2007. he's established an advant-garde new style of music (Has established a tradition or school in a particular genre). how do you undelete the article?

I've undeleted the article (as it is now a disputed WP:PROD). Please note that the article may still be nominated for deletion via the articles for deletion process. Let me know if you have any further questions. Cheers, Petros471 15:53, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:68.192.166.183

Blocked by yourself for persistent vandalism (automotive and Japanese manga/anime articels). Same pages are now being vandalised the same way by User:24.46.255.158. I did a blanket revert of all edits in the meantime, but didn't bother posting a warning as seemed pointless. --DeLarge 23:08, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Please see WP:AIV for vandalism reports (I'm basically inactive at the moment). Petros471 15:58, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.

Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
  • The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
  • In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
  • A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
  • Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.
Signed...

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

[edit] Sunderland Message Board

Would dispute deletion of this page relating to the largest supporters' group of Sunderland AFC.

As pointed out in the deletion discussion:

1) Group has been misconstrued as just existing as a message board. Group started from a message board, hence the origins of the acronym SMB. 2) Sufficient argument was made to establish notability, no reason was given to dispute this. Decision to delete not based on consensus in the discussion. 3) Why just this group? - do a search on "football supporters clubs" and there are hundreds. All for deletion?

Conclude that the article should have been marked for clean-up (to make it clear that SMB referred to a physical group), not deletion. Would request restoration.Cathd6 12:24, 13 November 2006 (UTC) I should have said "thank you" - and just to let you know that I've noted you're busy so I'll give it a couple of weeks before taking it for general discussion. cheers! Cathd6

That article was deleted as a result of a WP:AFD discussion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sunderland Message Board, rather than a speedy or proposed deletion. I interpreted the consensus (taking into account arguments rather than simple votes) of the discussion to be delete. I still stand by that decision, however you are welcome to request a deletion review of that decision to see if the community agrees with you. Petros471 17:02, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
