[edit] Edits to article Piotr blass

Please read carefully my comments about the notability of the information. thanks dr piotr blass

[edit] AFD

Thanks and sorry for the mess up with Bonkum. ^^; Probably bit off more than I can chew. How does one wrap up discussions? Oo -WarthogDemon 00:24, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

An admin will close the discussion after 5 days. No need to do anyhting. --Transfinite 02:15, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cybercafe.com

I recenty made an AfD for Cybercafe.com, when an admin came along and deleted the page, while leaving the AfD page up: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cyberpunkcafe.com. Should I have not made the page? -WarthogDemon 07:07, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Actually, that just happened to me (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Wine Kone). There are three ways to delete stuff: speedy deletion (WP:CSD), which is articles that can be deleted without discussion: nonsense, blatant advertising, vanity articles, etc. Proposed deletion (WP:PROD), which is for uncontroversial deletion candidates that do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion. These articles can be deleted if a {prod} tag stays on the article for five days. Then there is Articles for Deletion WP:AFD, which is a five day debate on whether or not to delete an article. You just have to use your best judgement to decide what kind of deletion to use. Also, AfDs that were speedy deleted stay up as a record. Happy editing! --Transfinite 18:11, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the correction

I've been adding things so quick to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_general_elections%2C_2006 that I did not put things in lower case. thankxs —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lazurs (talk • contribs) 18:50, November 7, 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents

  • I've logged an incident report based on User:Miracleimpulse's latest accusations against me and since you also were referred to as a "spin doctor" in this accusation I thought I'd let you know in case you wish to comment. I personally am tired of being called an industry insider when I've never worked for a candy, greeting card, or gift company.--Isotope23 15:24, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
    • I see what you did there. Image:smile.png -- Mr. Slugworth, er I mean --Transfinite 03:03, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
    • FYI, I'm writing a response, but it may take a while. --Transfinite 03:32, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Phrasing on Holidays banner

I used the phrase "supported by", as opposed to the older "part of", because some editors have objected to what they perceive as a claim of ownership which they saw in that phrasing. However, given that this project is at bit more narrowly-focused than many of the others, there may well be no complaint regarding it. Badbilltucker 18:56, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I changed it because User:Miracleimpulse was complaining about it in Talk:Sweetest Day. The user in question really dislikes Sweetest Day, so I changed it to something that doesn't imply approval. How about "within the scope of"? --Transfinite 19:00, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Sounds fine by me. Badbilltucker 19:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Rockford Armory

That's cool. I probably wasn't paying as much attn. as I should have. If you don't take a new one I'll probably be there soon as well and try to get one.A mcmurray 17:27, 20 January 2007 (UTC

[edit] City Hall Picture

  • Transfinite, I really didn't want to see you freeze your butt taking a winter picture of City Hall, so I took the liberty of "playing" with your picture. I hope you don't mind. Feel free to use it until you get the shot you want in warmer weather. Image: RockfordCityHall2wiki.jpg Srebob 16:05, 21 January 2007 (UTC)srebob

[edit] Arbitrary Section Break

HUDSON VALLEY? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.217.67.33 (talk • contribs) 18:32, January 24, 2007 (UTC)

What are you talking about? I pretty sure I haven't worked on any articles about that. --Transfinite 18:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adding of HippoEDIT

Dear Transfinite, can you please explain me why you have removed my updates "Adding of HippoEDIT" of article "Comparison of text editors". Please describe this in examples, taking one of other editors in the list. Please also check article discussion page, and makes remarks there. --KefirX 11:31, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello Transfinite can you please answer me in "Comparison of text editors" discussion page? --KefirX 10:26, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mecha as Practical War Machines

[edit] German Valley, Illinois

Well, I would like a few images for the page of German Valley if you don't mind. Maybe one of the downtown for the page at least? Why not expand upon the article and research it. Rockford, Illinois is up for collaboration if you see the talk page for it. Vote for it if you want, and if it wins we will focus on that one next after Springfield, Illinois.--Kranar drogin 19:35, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

There's not much of a downtown, but I'll take a picture today or tomorrow. Heck, I might even dig up a citation for the bank robbery last April. --Transfinite 20:39, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
That would be great to have a photo. A history on how the village was founded would be great also. I will help you a little in expansion, but I don't know much about it.--Kranar drogin 08:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Conservapedia

There is a whole bunch of material missing from the Talk:Conservapedia page. The deletion or revert is not showing up in the history. What happened?

Thank you for the Refactor suggestion. I'm new and want to do a good job without stepping on toes. Now, I need to find collaborators to help. What is the best way to get the ball rolling? Paradoxos 00:10, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

A whole bunch of stuff got archived from that page here: Talk:Conservapedia/Archive 1, is that what you are referring to? As for refactoring, it isn't something I've ever done, I've just archived stuff, so I don't have any experience with it. I was aware of the page from WP:TALK from some talk page archives I've done. --Transfinite (Talk / Contribs) 03:58, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
whatever it was, it was corrected. I need to talk to someone -- check out my dOOd comment on Mykll42.
i'm posting the same thing on your pages as i posted on Mykll42's. All I can tell is, that it looks like someone has done a whole lot of cutting and pasting -- check out the military sections. Specifically, USS New Jersey and List of Marine Corps Weapons articles. Copious amounts of information are well edited with no citations and a single reference to work in the public domain. My concern is: are these articles adequately cited and could lack of citations reflect poorly on Wikipedia? paradoxos 20:30, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
useful information -- thank you and sorry for bothering you! paradoxos 20:44, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
