[edit] CoSort
- Copied from Talk:CoSort:
I don't understand why this page was deleted. I made the changes requested... and I add the holdon tag that is required. Did anyone actually review the changes that were made? What do I need to do to make this article okay? I've received feedback from other moderators and I've followed it. Please advise. Dkkrms (talk) 04:42, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- I was the admin who deleted it, as it appeared to be identical to the version that was deleted through Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CoSort. Direct me to the feedback and I'll take a look at it. -- Flyguy649 talk 17:43, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] why not delete User:Blakk Eegle?
it is big violation of user page policy, and the links advertised have nothing to do with wikipedia.--Otterathome (talk) 14:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- How is it advertising? It's not linking a service. It links the user's other pages on what looks like a Finnish Uncyclopedia. That's it. -- Flyguy649 talk 14:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
-
- It is advertising the users userpage on a completely seperate site, uncy has nothing to do with the wikimedia foundation. It is the users only edit.--Otterathome (talk) 14:56, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

- I agree it's probably not strictly in keeping with WP:USER. However, no one is going to see it -- the user does not edit, so there's no reason anyone would ever go the the page. I'd argue that it is generally easier just to remove offending links on userpages such as this than tag the page for deletion with a reason in the edit summary. I'll delete this one. -- Flyguy649 talk 15:06, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry
Hey. I'm sorry for that cut-and-paste move I made earlier; I wanted to move the page and didn't know how to do it, so I just did the first thing that came to mind. I'll be sure to learn more about moves, so that I don't make the same mistake twice. Thanks for your time! Dux is me (talk) 03:11, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Fro Deletion
Hi Flyguy649, Last night, I immediately left the following message with Kevin, the editor who marked my page for deletion. Please read it below. If there is anything you can do to restore my page, I would appreciate your help. I was not able to mark it with a "hang on" tag for some reason.
Hi Kevin,
I can't figure out how to add the "hang on" tag to The Fro page. After you added the candidate for speedy deletion block, I can no longer see the edit link. I'd like to find out when I can expect to be able to add something about The Fro. You are right, in that right now, The Fro is unknown. However I AM printing a graphic novel next year; it's in development right now. If I look up most topics regarding small press comics, like Evil Ernie, this is not a character like Spiderman, yet it is still on Wikipedia. Can you clarify at what point I can start using Wikipedia to document The Fro like they have for Evil Ernie? If I upload pages from the book now and show this is not just some guy in a suit, is that sufficient for me to use Wiki to document the story's and character's existance? If not, where do we draw the line, so that I can know when I AM able to use it?
Thank you, Chris —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrisharden (talk • contribs) 05:42, 17 May 2008 (UTC) Chrisharden (talk) 13:17, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men
User:JTWoodsworth has recreated the article you redirected at Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars (original title). This is the third article he has created with this exact content, Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars, Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars (original script), and Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars (original title). Please do something to stop him from spreading all this all over the place. ColdFusion650 (talk) 17:06, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- He's done it again at Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars (original film title). I've warned him on his talk page. He needs to be blocked. ColdFusion650 (talk) 17:49, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- I left him a note. -- Flyguy649 talk 00:44, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Polyclonal response
Hi!
I had started the above article in February, 2007, and managed to "finish" it some days back. Well, so I'm telling you about it as I thought (seeing your user page) that you could be the right person to tell me if more facts in the article require to be cited. Moreover, I had nominated the article for GA, where it has been put on hold by a user (though I have no issues with that) who told me that it's not alright to give most of the citations from the same source (a book on immunology—Goldsby et al by the same title "Immunology"). He had also objected to putting a "section of difficult terms and concepts" in the beginning of the article saying such a section is not a part of the Wikipedia guidelines. But, I believe WP:common sense clause clearly states that if some departures add to the value of the article (here, comprehension), then it's better to not follow the guidelines. I felt this clearly applies to the article in question. Of course, you must be having your time constraints, so you can tell me the same.
Moreover, I'd like reviews from some one not related to the field so that I'd know if the article makes sense to them. Well, of course, you are not suited in this regard.
By the way, I came across your profile as you'd answered my doubt on action of Trapezius muscle in the science reference desk. Thanks for answering.
Regards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KC Panchal (talk • contribs) 18:04, May 31, 2008
- I'll take a look in a couple of hours. -- Flyguy649 talk 00:44, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

- I've looked at it briefly, and I'll give you my initial impressions. I'll give you more detailed suggestions later. It's obvious that you've spent a lot of time on the article. It is a complex subject, but the article is written very technically. Remember that the goal of an encyclopedia is to provide lay people information on a subject. I realise that there are many articles that are very technical, but that's one frustration I have in reading some computer science and mathematical articles here. One way to get around it is to give a basic explanation in the introduction and provide the more technical explanation after. Anyway, I have to run now. More later. -- Flyguy649 talk 17:02, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Reply from panchalkc
Hi! Sorry for forgetting to put the sign in the first message. Yes, you're right about the article being technical. Though, I've tried to scale down the technicality in it. By trying to give analogy for conformational versus sequential epitopes, etc. But, of course, I'd be happy to make changes provided I'm told specifically which parts you thought were particularly technical. "One way to get around it is to give a basic explanation in the introduction and provide the more technical explanation after"—I thought that's what I've tried to do. But, of course I might have overlooked certain other possible ways of putting the concepts across.
Thanks again for your interest. By the way, I put my reply in a separate subsection for easy navigation. Do tell me if you didn't like that.
Regards.

[edit] What do we do in a situation like this?
List of Backyardigans episodes#Pirate Camp
The episode is legit; it apparently showed as a special in America, so it's not false info, but the synopsis is a copy/paste from here. What happens in a case where only some of the info is copy/paste? I've suggested to the poster that the synopsis needs to be re-written in their own words, but beyond that, what happens? HalfShadow 03:39, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- We have to remove the copyvio. It was unquestionably a direct copy of the website. So until it gets re-written, it can't be a direct copy. Or at least that's my interpretation. I for one can't wait to see it! I've enjoyed all the episodes this season. -- Flyguy649 talk 04:16, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
