[edit] My Policy
Now that I'm here, feel free to put any questions/concerns/comments below (preferably in their own section) if you want me to respond. Please specify where you want any responses (if they're necessary). Unless otherwise specified - or unless there's a good reason to do so - I'll reply here. Further, I can and will reply to deliberately inflammatory remarks in order to provide context, should the situation escalate or be at risk of doing so.
If you're wondering why an article was deleted, please read this page first. It should at least serve to clarify the situation, even if it doesn't give you an answer. I'm more than willing to answer, of course, but I'll assume that you've read it through.
I can now also be Emailed if you feel that that's a better way to do things. I can't say that I'm a convert to the idea just as yet, but we'll see how it goes. If you want to guarantee a fast response, please accompany your Email with a comment here (just something like "check your Emails" or "I've commented on the such-and-such by Email" should do the trick).
Where archiving is concerned, I'll archive all "dead" discussions when the page gets too long and leave "live" ones out for a while. That way we don't run the risk of having bits and pieces scattered everywhere.
Can a cool admin help a guy out? I want to add one sentence to the world of Wikipedia. But I can't. The sentence is factual, provable, reliable (I chose the New York Times version.)
Fact: Circumcision is believed to decrease a man's risk of getting HIV Fact: Circmcision is believed to INCREASE a man's risk of getting herpes and chlamydia, and some think even other STD's.
The article on "circumcision" mentions the term HIV probably 100 times (I'm not joking) and mentions "herpes" or "chlamydia" not Once.
Can a cool admin stop two guys named Avraham and Jakew (the site's dictators) from deleting my ONE sentence I want to add? Thanks here's the New York Times article... http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9C07E4D91F3AF931A35757C0A961958260&fta=y
I used to love Wikipedia until I went to add a sentence, you know? Well, thanks. 70.114.38.167 (talk) 06:39, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
- I can sympathise with what you're saying, but I'm not sure there's much I can do about it at present. The sentence you've been trying to add is a problematic one, given the reference you're citing. What the reference says is that circumcised men are more likely to report those infections, rather than that the procedure itself is believed to increase the risk of the infections, as you're writing into the article. Secondly, the article dates from 1997, so it's around a decade old now, and as some of the reversions point out, that's pretty out of date in the medical world. Do you have a more recent study you can cite which demonstrates that kind of thing? BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:35, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Brisbane
Just a reminder that WikiProject Brisbane needs your help. There have been a number of changes to the project page over recent days and I hope you could spare some time to take a look, be bold and add some touches yourself.
There is plenty that needs to be done to get more Brisbane articles up to FA standard. Please come and discuss this and lets see if we can build up this project.

[edit] Template:Infobox Aust School
I nominated this template for deletion, because it had exactly the same qualities to the Template:Infobox school and inferior structure with worse aesthetics. That's why I was replacing the templates with the Infobox school, but after the first few blunders I kept the template in Australian English, although the template changed. I hope you understand. STYROFOAM1994Don't age bias me! 03:31, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
- Indeed I do. I was slightly careless on the reverts regarding the variety of English, so feel free to change those infoboxes back accordingly. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 04:48, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Germany Invitation

Hello, BigHaz! I'd like to call your attention to the WikiProject Germany and the German-speaking Wikipedians' notice board. I hope their links, sub-projects and discussions are interesting and even helpful to you. If not, I hope that new ones will be.

[edit] Greater Slovenia
Take a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greater Slovenia (2nd nomination). Slovenians try to delete the article Greater Slovenia as if the concept never existed. Please participate in the discussion, the article has been thoroughly sourced. -- Imbris (talk) 20:50, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure why an uninvolved user (my only experience of Slovenia is spending a magical day there early last year) is being canvassed to take part in this discussion. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:16, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- I have just reminded you with very carefull aproach to take a look and participate. Nothing more. -- Imbris (talk) 21:20, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- I wouldn't exactly call it a neutral suggestion myself, but everyone's welcome to their own opinions. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:21, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

- If you have the time, can you tell me why you choose in the earlier RfD to vote for the keeping of the article. Do you feel that it should be deleted or perhaps renamed. -- Imbris (talk) 22:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- My rationale for advocating "keep" in the first AfD was outlined in my comment there. I haven't yet had the chance to read over the arguments and the article this second time round, and may not have that chance. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:55, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
