Hey, i saw you trying to work on General Mayhem and getting attacked by vandals. It seemed as though you were trying to write a valid article in NPOV. That is a commendable effort, and hopefully you can get that started again soon. I know you had some trouble with vandals, so you'll need some help "fighting" them off. First off, since the article was previously deleted, technically its not supposed to be reposted. However, a rewrite that fixes the problems should be no problem, as long as you tell people its a rewrite and not just the same content reposted. Try asking at Wikipedia:Village pump for some help getting it started, and more people will be aware that you are trying to write a valid article, and posting on the talk page (Talk:General Mayhem in this case) can't hurt either. Just say you know it was deleted, but you're trying to write a good article this time. Tell them a sysop (me) gave you the idea of it. If the vandals come back, we can try to protect the page from them or just continue reverting them (thats easier to do than vandalism actually). Anyways, good luck. siroχo 07:25, Sep 10, 2004 (UTC)
