[edit] Re: J&P

This company looks notable to me. You might want to copy and paste your arguments into the talk page, lest anyone wish to delete it again. And any additional information that would support the company's notability would be great. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! --Fang Aili talk 13:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PAEEK

Hi, i was just trying to add some info on this article and found you deleted it yesterday. I can't see the basis of this, could you please explain? Regards, StephP 17:43, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Because we don't need an article about every minor little sports club, only the notable ones. Someone tagged this article with {{prod}}, which brought it to my attention. 5 days after it was tagged, I deleted it. - UtherSRG (talk) 17:49, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
If you wish it undeleted, tag it with {{delrev}}, and post a note about it on Wikipedia:Deletion review. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:42, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
Someone vandalized the template. I've fixed it. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:54, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Delight

I generally do many upkeep tasks in many articles so I tend not to have too much time to analyze the whole issues, I take a look and try to fix it. That's why I had done a simple revert in the first place, then when you pointed out that "traces" could be an understatement, I tried to improve it. Sorry if it might not have seemed correct to do such a revert considering the wider issue.. However, I agree with you, so I tried to improve it a little bit. Cheers!

[edit] A special thanks

I applaud you in the creation of the article Mahairas monastery. I have some material on the monastery from a book that I hope to add and cite. Peace. (UNFanatic 21:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Additions to American Psycho

Thank you for the additions to American Psycho. I realised not long ago the article would need such a section if it were to be comprehensive. The GA article police, however, will not promote it until the Themes and Symbolism section is properly referenced.

Anyway, Merry Christmas! Rintrah 05:18, 25 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Orphanbot msg

This image [1] was flagged up by orphabot. I'd like to know how it differs from the licence granted to [2] Cheers!StephP 16:22, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

The only difference is that Image:Keo_Beer.jpg was uploaded after OrphanBot started checking uploads, while Image:Newcastle_brown_ale_f.jpg was uploaded before. --Carnildo 22:40, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
so you are just happy to suggest deletion of the first but not the second!StephP 12:28, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cyprus-stub

To template για το cyprus-stub προτείνεται απο τουσ τουρκους να αλλάξει. "This Cyprus-related article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it." Ηδη προτείνεται να αλλάξει το link για την Κύπρο στο να ειναι link gia το αρθρο για τη γεωγραφία της Κυπρου, και επίσης κερδίζει ηδη έδαφος στο να φύγει η σημαια μας και να αντικατασταθει με τον χαρτη της Κυπρου. μπορεις να με βοηθησεις να μην περασει αυτο που θελουν οι Τουρκοι? Ηδη προσπαθω εγώ μόνος μου αλλα και εγω ειμαι σε εξεταστικη περιοδο και δεν μπορω να πολυασχοληθω με τιν βικιπέδια αν μπορουσες να βοηθησεις... KRBN 14:27, 9 January 2007(UTC)

Thanks for your message KRBN, but I have long decided to avoid getting embroiled in political issues. They inevitably lead to a waste of everyone’s time and in all honesty it simply is not my field. Cheers, StephP 12:26, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Commandaria

Hi, I just left a message on the Commandaria talk page [3]. I noticed you have contributed to the article and was hoping on your view on a proposal I have. Thanks, Georgeg 00:06, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] London Metropolitan University

Hello. I noticed you have reverted an edit made to this page today. Can you please let me know why you reverted it as you do not give a reason. Thank you 84.66.215.213 17:56, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

I reverted it for the same reason as user:Mholland. The abbreviation LMU is often used, see examples here[4] and here [5] and here [6] and here [7]. How about yourself, why have you got a problem with its inclusion? StephP 18:14, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Because I like to be accurate and the sources you cite are not really authoritative, but fair enough... 84.66.215.213 19:22, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Pfff...well, London Metropolitan University students seem to use it themselves: [8]. Anyway, in all honesty, I am not that fussed, so leave it as you wish. StephP 19:36, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ENAD

Ok, a few points:

  • Remember WP:CIVIL when talking to other WP users and leaving edit summaries. Think about how you raised your issue on my talk page then ask yourself how it could have been better worded to be both more polite and sensible.
  • NPWatcher is not a bot, it is a program for users to monitor the new pages feed and immediately action them with relevant tags such as CSD, AfD, stub, wikify, etc.
  • If you look at the [in question when it was first created], you will see that it was more than acceptable to tag it for a speedy deletion under criteria A7, as it did not assert notability or significance of the topic in question, nor was it stubbed to indicate it was a work in progress. Further, CSD's do not require explanation on the talk page for the article

Like other WP editors I don't mind people raising questions and being bold, but what I do mind is when they go about it in a manner which puts others offside and shows an apparant lack of respect for WP as an information sharing tool. Please sit back and have a long hard think about your actions, and I would hope you would see sense as to apologise for your actions shortly. thewinchester 03:26, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

At the risk of repeating myself, please go away and have a long hard read of WP:CIVIL as well as re-reading everything I said above. Your comments in my talk page indicate to any reasonably educated person that you have decided to ignore reason and sound advice and pursue your own argumentative viewpoint on the matter. From my extended experience and those of a large group of WP editors I work with including a group of fifteen consisting of 10,000+ plus editors, WP admins, or those who actively participate in AfD, AMA members, etc, it is those who act in the manner you currently are who cause disputes and issues. Can I strongly suggest that you stop, step back, and re-evaluate everything you have said thus far before even thinking about saying anything further. I'm happy to hear any constructive or considered viewpoints you may have on the issue, but to simply find multiple different ways of saying you're unhappy that a newly submitted article from yourself was reasonably nominated for a CSD A7 is both pointless and is of no benefit to the furthering of WP. thewinchester 15:13, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)#Regarding notability of Football (soccer) players

Thanks for the invite. Springnuts 21:01, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Yea, thanks for the invite. Good use of communication with other Wikipedians! -- Jreferee 01:45, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the invite, I've added some comments. Jules 13:03, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't agree that anyone who has played international football for any country, no matter how minor in football terms, should be considered notable. Every player who has ever played for Andorra, San Marino, Faroe Islands, Luxembourg is notable enough for a WP entry? I can't agree with that. Jules 15:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. Gone to Texas. Edeans 20:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the invite, added my own view on the matter. Kurt000 16:22, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Commandaria GA

I'd like to thank you for your contribution to the GA nomination of that article and responding to the reviewer's concern. I don't know how big of a Commandaria fan you are but if you enjoy wine, you may want to consider joining the Wine Project.AgneCheese/Wine 00:35, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
