Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has now been reverted or removed. Please use Wikipedia:Sandbox for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles will be reverted quickly. Please see the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. 03:55, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)

Please stop removing the "Votes for Deletion" notice from Anti-worm. The appropriate forum for reaching consensus on whether or not it should be deleted is Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Anti-worm. In fact, the article has a fair amount of support in that discussion. Also, your claim in the edit summary that consensus has been reached on the talk page is blatantly false, because Anti-worm does not currently have a talk page. Continuing to delete the "Votes for Deletion" notice constitutes vandalism according to Wikipedia practices, which can get you temporarily blocked from editing.

My apology, by "talk page" I was referring to the deletion dicussion page. Surely a Wikipedia guru such as yourself could have figured that out.

Thank you for clarifying what you meant - in Wikipedia usage, "talk page" means the associated discussion page Talk:Anti-worm. But please just stop removing the VfD notice. Once an article has been nominated for deletion, the discussion remains open at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Anti-worm for the allotted five days. Even if it looks like consensus is going one way or another, the discussion remains open to allow others to contribute. In this case, the consensus is not clear, because several people want to merge it to Computer worm. Once more: leave the "Votes for Deletion" notice alone. It will be removed by an admin when the VfD process is complete. FreplySpang (talk) 23:46, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Obviously, I disagree with your characterization of my actions as "senseless" and "vandalism." As I have mentioned, premature removal of a Votes for Deletion notice is considered vandalism - replacing it is not. FreplySpang (talk) 23:54, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Continued removal of a Votes for Deletion notice is considered disruptive vandalism, and can result in your being blocked from editing. I suggest you stop. -- Cyrius| 00:00, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Out of 10 replies to the deletion discuss page, only two individuals opted for the deletion of the page. It is CLEAR that the anti-worm page WILL NOT be deleted. The anti-worm page was submitted for deletion because Xcali believed that it was a made up topic that did not exist. He has been proven wrong through many sources and article links. This is ALL verified on the deletion discussion page for anti-worms.

You have been blocked for 24 hours for violation of the three revert rule and improper removal of a Votes for Deletion notice. -- Cyrius| 02:22, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
