[edit] Egads

Thats the first time two usernames I've reported were not valid. My apologies. SynergeticMaggot (talk) 10:45, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sock Puppetry Case

Thank you for making the correct assumption in this case, I made a mistake and assumed bad faith. The users email made it clear to me that he was not a sock puppet. Cheers! Mww113 (talk) 11:33, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Heads up

I'm alerting you of this edit on Wales by Petitspois. I think this is likely to be a certain user using a sock to avoid 3RR again (as with user:Melvo which you banned). I'm suspicious of the editor's history (Wales, Hard Fi and a string of the band "Editors" diffs here) - the coincidence of a one-off edit happening on Wales with a unique editor with this particular history is just too unlikely imo. People are getting paranoid about IP's on British Isles too. This IP had an interest in Editors, Hard Fi and constituent country (an article central to the revert Petitspois is involved in). Footballers is another interest (the common interest is a few bands, 'UK countries' and footballers).This IP from Editors has an interest in re-naming Rep of Ireland as "Ireland" - another pursuit. Looking down the Editors line (though probably less important), this IP shows coincidentally-timed combined-interest band edits too, as does this one.

I can look at putting an appropriate page up if you would like, but I'd rather not get too involved as I've been too involved with the editor already. He is big on 'head-counting' consensus, and obviously any sock-using could disrupt this. --Matt Lewis (talk) 22:15, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for mentioning 78.16.xx.xx. I looked on the British Isles Talk page and found this IP (78.16.126.36) - both it's comments are aimed at myself, with one about Wales not being a real country (a Wikipeire argument in Wales - but not particularly relevant for the British Isles page). It fits into line, but probably not strictly a law-break, as you say.
There are more-prevalent 78.19.xx.xx's on British Isles, but I know too little about IP's to know if the number is strictly 'in range'. 78.19.213.117 has trolled my Talk page in the section that I was commenting to Wikipeire, 78.19.238.101 has similar views, and both 78.19.55.51 and 78.19.204.211 have been in a 3RR dispute and reported me for 3RR'ing (I was actually confused by the IP's and was let off the hook, fortunately). 78.19.222.154 and Wikipedia have commented next to each other in British Isles Talk, backing each other up. 78.19.13.108 has asked me an unusual (and out of the blue) question about Wales and Anglesey in British Isles - where the debate is typically about Ireland. I accept that '78.19.xx.xx' could reasonably easily be someone else (the nature of the debate), but I thought it's worth the note as significant factors are there. The 3RR should interest you if there was a 'number link'.--Matt Lewis (talk) 17:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, this may seem odd. But I believe User:Matt Lewis is the sock pupper master behind this account. The user has had arguments with me before and has insulted me many times. (I can get diffs if you like). This may be a first, but I think he may have setup the account and edited some pages I have edited in the past to make it look like a sock puppet of mine. So essentially I think he tried to frame me to try and get me pernamently banned. I haven't got any proof it was him, but I find it highly suspicious that it was him, an editor with a previous history with me, who has "spotted" a sock puppet "of mine". I think you should leave him a message about it.WikipÉire 13:16, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
For the record I'm more than happy to be checked. --Matt Lewis (talk) 17:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Right. Well, one of you thinks its the other, the other thinks its the one. How about this - if Petitspois doesn't edit again, then all well and good. If it does, then I'll file a CU, and whoever is found to be operating the account (assuming someone is) will get blocked accordingly. GBT/C 11:59, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Surely you mean "says" it's the other, though, rather than "thinks". I can't see any evidence that it could be me: User:Petitspois' edits go back 3 weeks on topics I've not been involved in (which are Wikipeire's rather idiosyncratic interests, not mine). User:Petitspois has been used in Wales in exactly the same way User:Melvo was - if it's not him imo, it must be someone 'framing' him (but how could that work beyond checks being made?). I very much doubt we'll be seeing Petitspois used again now - the problem here for me is the continuing use of new sockpuppets, and esp the IP usage. Were any of the IP addresses I detailed above interesting? --Matt Lewis (talk) 13:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
"Says"..."thinks"...don't read too much into that. The IP range 78.16.0.0 to 78.19.255.255 resolves to Ireland, but I can't get a specific look up of the individual addressed being used to determine if, for example, they're all coming from the same ISP. Let's see what Wikipeire reckons to my earlier post. The public face of GBT/C 13:13, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Which is the specific ealier post - the one in his talk or about using petitspois? I'm not sure why he would comment any more now - there's nothing he can really say other than that it's someone or me 'framing' him in some way (which he has said of course). I'm happy to be checked on it, or on anything. Petitspois is surely a 'clear-cut' case, as are at least some of those IPs. Nearly all of them I would class as 'highly' suspicious - and they don't make much sense by themselves. Only one or two of them I would say are speculative. Which is the easiest route? I don't mind putting him on the list to be 'checked' (? - I'll look into it properly and 'lay it out' if I have to), but I don't want to intefere with any other process. --Matt Lewis (talk) 14:47, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
The one about using petitspois. I think I'm tending to agree with you on the IPs, having looked at it a little more, but don't have the time to look in greater detail at this stage. Hopefully I'll be able to take a more indepth look tomorrow - I think it may end up in a checkuser in any event... GBT/C 18:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
What do you think? I don't mind filing a report based on the above if you don't have the time. --Matt Lewis (talk) 13:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
I reformatted the above as a checkuser report, having considered your comment and all the IPs involved. Looks like it had a positive result, and is closed. --Matt Lewis (talk) 21:53, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Wikipéire's IP is back - is this comment by him true?

Hi. User:Wikipéire's 78.16.xx.xx IP is back and reverting the Wikipéire user page. Is this edit comment by him true? He claims he can do it all day. His edit is not hugely disruptive, but does pose this question: as he does not have a "banned" tag - does "blocked indefinitely" amount to the same thing, or can he use his IP?--Matt Lewis (talk) 17:26, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kevin Annett

Just thought to give you a heads up that Mr. Annett issued a legal threat [1], contrary to Wikipedia:No legal threats.

You said to use talk page as an avenue for change. I told him to find sources to back up claims he made (or at least not to remove those which are sourced), but not only did he failed to do so, he simply accused everyone who edited the article is biased against him within 48 hours of the massive deletion.

I won't say "I told you so" but I told you so back to you - it's not his first time editing (despite his claims of innocence) and in so far that I can see, he has no intention to finding sources but instead, just trying to steer the article away from NPOV.

(Mind you I warned him about not posting legal threats just 30 hours before he actually made the post on Talk:KA page)

[edit] PlayStation 3 semi-protection

I wanted to say thanks for protecting it. ummmm.... if you don't think it'd be a problem, I think it might me a good idea to indef protect because I can't see it ever not being subject to a ton of vandalism otherwise. If you don't want to indef it, I'd appreciate it if you would extend the semi until at least June 25 because what is arguably the biggest exclusive game for the PS3 this year, Metal Gear Solid 4, comes out on June 12 and I can't even imagine the levels of vandalism that would be on that page in the days following the game's release. (More visibility = more vandalism) Thanks. Thingg 22:54, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Why delate a page on a Think tank?

I am trying to create a page on my organization, a famous Think Tank in IT industries. This first page was delated as soon as created? Could you tell me why? http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jean_sunday&action=submit (page in progress) - my organization is www.idate.org

[edit] Deletion

I read your deletion comments about the page I created. I thought that the article ( Rodon Group ) did in fact state why the company was noteworthy, or unique. Please message me with any information that my help me get the page back up. I appreciate your help, Thanks Mlavoritano (talk) 13:02, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

What changes should I make to help this article? I have already found some references and verifications, as well as more information to avoid the A7 issues.

[edit] Garrett Raffanelli

Why did you delete this article? It was being discussed. Garrett.Graff (talk) 16:18, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I can certainly understand your position however there is no explanation on Wikipedia that the prize mentioned does or doesn't merit the person's inclusion. The article was also being rapidly updated with other points of notability. Garrett.Graff (talk) 16:26, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

He has not released an official album yet however he has released songs, he is only 18 years old. So you're the sole authority to determine what is and is not sufficiently notable to make a competition major or not? I would say that making it through any amount of entries to win any competition is worth notability especially from an organization so dynamic as Shadowville. Also being notable as an actor in the Tribute to Abba. Garrett.Graff (talk) 16:32, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

"it's probably not unreasonable to assume", I'm sure you already know what they say about assuming, because in this case it is not me. Note my username is "Garrett Graff", my real name, and the article is about "Garrett Raffanelli", a musician from Northern Nevada, so there is no conflict of interest. I would rather meet you half way, return the article as it was and determine via discussion page whether or not there is sufficient notability. Garrett.Graff (talk) 16:52, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

"An interesting coincidence"? Garrett Raffanelli Garrett Graff, just in case you didn't think I was being totally honest ;). As for deletion review I will submit the request and also petition Wikipedia to review your administrative status. Garrett.Graff (talk) 17:00, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

"If a user thinks an administrator has acted improperly against them or another editor, they should express their concerns directly to the administrator responsible and try to come to a resolution in an orderly and civil manner. However, if the matter is not resolved between the two parties, users can take further action (see Wikipedia:Dispute Resolution).

[edit] Article Deleted

I thought the article I wrote about my fomer professor Diego Archer was great. It is very noteworthy as his theory of "conflict ownership" has been used in several inetrnational tribunals, including the ICTY, ICTR and SCSL. I tried to make it personable so it would be interseting instead of only focusing on the thoery but you can see how much we wrote on the thoery under the Sierra Leone context.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Diegoarcher (talkcontribs)

I understand. I used this user name as I only logged in to write the article. I really dont plan to continue in Wikipedia. Currenlty we are using the thoery on the International Court of Justice for the implementation of a the new criteria for international crimes. This includes the criteria we used to train the Judges in the Saddam Hussein trials. Since my professor came with it I was trying to make it more public outside the legal world so that the when the impact is made all credit goes to the person who made it and not to the politiocal system in the ICJ.
Do you suggest I write only the article about the thoery itself? If so please foward me the material we worte tonight so we don't loose it.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Diegoarcher (talkcontribs)
I added my e-mail. I will not get spam right? The theory is not reaserach it was already applied several times and is a factual issue. The Article will be smaller. Also I reference the papers where the thoery is mentioned but I put links for the web. based on your policy would it be better just to mention the papaers and no web links to them?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Diegoarcher (talkcontribs)
Why is this article David Archer published (I see absolutely no meaning or importance on this "In his 5 seasons in the CFL he completed 1388 of 2434 passes (57%) for 20671 yards with 71 interceptions and 120 touchdown passes.???" and my professor has a theory that is applied by the ICJ, ICTY and ICTR and it cannot be published?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Diegoarcher (talkcontribs)

Ok got it about the comments. I am Alexia by the way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diegoarcher (talkcontribs) 08:26, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

So if I write about my professor when he won the gold medal nationals on college track and field (lateral jump) back in 1996 in Cleveland. That is publishable?

I just fin it really interesting that this guy David Archer practicalyl did nothing significant for this world (I eman he played for NFL temas but was a back-up or soemthing as I can see from the read) so bad he only ahs one parragraph. On the other hand we have Professor Archer who wrote the theory of Conflict Ownership wich was used in 4 different tribunals and the preparation of the Saddam Hussein judges. The thory was used to prosecute Charles Taylor in teh Sierra Leone conflict as I mentioned in the article I wrote about him. Charles taylor was avoiding the tribunal jursidction adn if it wasn't for the thoery he would not had been indicted. So this has historical context, BUT is not publishable. However David Archer sitting down on a football bench is. Diegoarcher (talk) 08:38, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Would you agree? Diegoarcher (talk) 08:43, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Also, what if I change teh article and just put creator of "conflict ownership" doctrine and put the references of all the judegs resolutions and trials?Diegoarcher (talk) 08:47, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

(1) Multiple, not just one. (2) It needs to be cited - it's not enough to say so, you have to link to a reliable source evidencing the claim. (3) The text is a copyright infringement of http://cdbaby.com/cd/yunekstyles. This is not copyright infrigement on CD BABY as this is YUNEK's CD BABY ACCOUNT! She is the one who had her publicist to post the BIO on the CD BABY SITE! Has had a charted hit on any national music chart. (so far)Peaked at #61 on Radio and Records (BDS) Gospel music charts.
Nowhere in the article as it stood was that asserted.

Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.

Again, that's not asserted. She's a gospel singer...she's not the most prominent representative of that style or her city.

Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury or Grammis award. Has won or placed in a major music competition. Semi Finalist in Gospel Dream Showcase and HONORED at the ALL EYES ON ME HOLY HIP HOP ACHEIVEMENT AWARDS

I would say that those don't constitute major music awards on the level of those cited in the examples. Just because you don't consider those avenues major music awards, doesn't mean that they are not major awards to those on the GOSPEL MUSIC sector.

Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show BOBBY JONES GOSPEL IS AIRED ON BET and THE WORD NETWORK or notable film

That's not what the criteria is getting at - mere television appearances don't count.

inclusion on a compilation album, etc. GOSPEL MIX is a compilation ablum which gained status of one of WALMARTS top sellers in GOSPEL section.

Again, where is that asserted in the article as it stood?

Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network. the radio list I provided earlier are all NATIONAL BDS and MEDIAGUIDE used by ASCAP stations.

Emphasis on the word "major". and again, none of that was asserted or evidence. BDS stations are MAJOR P1 and P2 stations. You should research BDS as it is the owner of BILLBOARD.

Again, where is that asserted in the article as it stood? The article wasn't done being edited as you deleted it before I could get back to view the page! I can go back in and re-edit and assert the pertinent information if the page was posted.

I think the key thing that you may be missing is that notability must be asserted, and must be evidence by reliable sources. Are you able to find reliable, independent, third party sources for that which you're claiming above? GBT/C 09:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

also the criteria states = is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria and I've provided evidence of several of those. I can link to the Chronicle article, you can pull BDS reports if need be. You can view her information on KOCH Distribution's website as they are the a HUGE music Distributor distributing all sectors of MUSIC including your named secular artists. MusicMovesMe (talk) 10:02, 25 May 2008 (UTC) The criteria It has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician/ensemble itself and reliable.[1] Houston Chronicle as one of the most talented female audio engineers in the music business. The Houston Chronicle is the newspaper for the greater Houston area and approched Yunek for the interviewing for the article once she gained recognition in the city. The story covered her work as a producer and engineer and noted her work in the industry.

(1) Multiple, not just one. (2) It needs to be cited - it's not enough to say so, you have to link to a reliable source evidencing the claim. (3) The text is a copyright infringement of http://cdbaby.com/cd/yunekstyles. This is not copyright infrigement on CD BABY as this is YUNEK's CD BABY ACCOUNT! She is the one who had her publicist to post the BIO on the CD BABY SITE! Has had a charted hit on any national music chart. (so far)Peaked at #61 on Radio and Records (BDS) Gospel music charts. Nowhere in the article as it stood was that asserted. Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.

Again, that's not asserted. She's a gospel singer...she's not the most prominent representative of that style or her city. Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury or Grammis award. Has won or placed in a major music competition. Semi Finalist in Gospel Dream Showcase and HONORED at the ALL EYES ON ME HOLY HIP HOP ACHEIVEMENT AWARDS

I would say that those don't constitute major music awards on the level of those cited in the examples. Just because you don't consider those avenues major music awards, doesn't mean that they are not major awards to those on the GOSPEL MUSIC sector. Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show BOBBY JONES GOSPEL IS AIRED ON BET and THE WORD NETWORK or notable film

That's not what the criteria is getting at - mere television appearances don't count. inclusion on a compilation album, etc. GOSPEL MIX is a compilation ablum which gained status of one of WALMARTS top sellers in GOSPEL section.

Again, where is that asserted in the article as it stood? Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network. the radio list I provided earlier are all NATIONAL BDS and MEDIAGUIDE used by ASCAP stations.

Emphasis on the word "major". and again, none of that was asserted or evidence. BDS stations are MAJOR P1 and P2 stations. You should research BDS as it is the owner of BILLBOARD. Has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network. RADIO ONE CHARLOTTE,NC and RADIO ONE HOUSTON -KROI have dedicated hour long shows to interviewing and noting the accomplishments of YUNEKMusicMovesMe (talk) 09:01, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Again, where is that asserted in the article as it stood? The article wasn't done being edited as you deleted it before I could get back to view the page! I can go back in and re-edit and assert the pertinent information if the page was posted. I think the key thing that you may be missing is that notability must be asserted, and must be evidence by reliable sources. Are you able to find reliable, independent, third party sources for that which you're claiming above? GBT/C 09:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

also the criteria states = is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria and I've provided evidence of several of those. I can link to the Chronicle article, you can pull BDS reports if need be.

[edit] Forest Laboratories

I have added a hangon to Talk:Forest Pharmaceuticals Firstrx (talk) 09:09, 25 May 2008 (UTC)


I need you to look up Novartis, Merck & Co. and any other pharma comany you like and tell me why you deleted Forest Pharmaceuticals for "blatant advertising as a brand new article. I think a mistake has been made on your part and it needs to be reinstated. This is clearly a real company. I suggest you google it if your are unsure. Firstrx (talk) 08:35, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Clearly it is a notable company. The article needs to be expanded. There are hundreds of pharmaceutical companies. Notability can be put into question without deleting it. You need to research the company before questioning its notability. It needs to be reinstated. Firstrx (talk) 08:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure what your problem is, seriously, you seem to now have a vendetta against me. Sometime other can be right and you can be wrong, it's just that simple. Why should a company who has multiple products on wiki, be itself deleted?? How does that make sense?? This is not advertisement...it is a fact about a real pharmaceutical company. Firstrx (talk) 08:58, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Fortunately I see that Forest Laboratories is already listed on wiki. Since these are one in the same, it appears as all you did was abuse your power and waste our time. I will edit there. I do hoper for the sake of wiki you were a kinder person who didn't think everyone on here is trying to exploit something. I assume you have had some bad experiences on wiki and therefore you assume the worst in everyone. 'Tis ashame. Peace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Firstrx (talkcontribs) 09:17, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Apparently it does warrent inclusion, under Forest Laboratories. Many people I see have edited it and nobody has attacked its noteworthyness. Most likely because it is in fact notable. You appear to be the only person taking issue here. That is ashame. I would assume any action on your part taken against Forest Laboratories would then indeed look like a vendetta against me, but only time will tell. Firstrx (talk) 09:21, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Bottom line...you didn't want he article there and you gave me or anyone else NO time to clean it up. I would not be so fast to talk about a "high horse" my friend. You said the company was not worthy of inclusion, yet there it is on wiki already. I'm sorry you were backed into a corner and now have to come out swinging. A little humility on your part would go a long way...however I won't hold my breath. Adios. Firstrx (talk) 09:30, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
I have said all I will on the subject. I expect you to behave properly and as an admin. is "expected" to act. Any further contact from you on the subject will be considered harassment. Firstrx (talk)

[edit] Timtiny23

Hi, I see that you seem to be the one who has blocked the user who keeps using multiple accounts to evade a block for POV pushing. They are back again under the account User:Timtiny23 using the same edit summary style and same edits on Global English UK, and just wondering if you could have a look into it? Thanks.♦Tangerines♦·Talk 18:08, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

No worries. I must admit I know little of the topic. I only have it in my watchlist because of the POV edits that keep appearing on it! Thanks again. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 19:21, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Any Information or Help Please

I am writing again seeking help in getting my recently deleted article back up and am hoping that you can help me do so. Please message me on my talk page and let me know what steps I should take and what changes are required. I have already devoted time to revising content to avoid the A7 issues. Thanks Mark Mlavoritano (talk) 19:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your response - unfortunately the comments from the other administrator were for a different page than the one deleted by you. The page in quesiton, Rodon Group, was cited by you for not being signicant or noteworthy, not for spam. As such, I have worked to develop more information and sources to help get the page back up. The other page, as referenced on my talk page, does need significant work, and i recognize that. However, I feel the Rodon page warrants review. Thanks again for your response - Looking forward to any insight on how to get Rodon back up. Mlavoritano (talk) 19:56, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your response. My only question is how do I add sources and information to the article once it has been deleted? Should I repost it, or work through you to get the content back up for editing? Thanks again. Mlavoritano (talk) 20:46, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Beastieboysfan

Thanks, he and I have been having a back and forth editing going for about 4 or 5 months now. So it's nice to have "help". - Spyke1077 (talk) 20:02, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm on the East Coast of the United States, so its 4:06 PM right now. Also, while the discussion page incident was a problem, I just wanted to point out (since you said you didnt notice at first) is that he tampered with the cover art. The cover is supposed to have the World Trade Center towers on it. And then I changed it, wrote on the discussion page about it. Ever since, he's replaced the picture and blanked the discussion page. Thanks so much for helping me out with this. - Spyke1077 (talk) 20:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Qj67

You deleted the page for blatant advertising. He's recreated it; can you pull up a log of the deleted page so i can see if he's simply put up the same material? thanks. Ironholds (talk) 00:23, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

I'll begin working on the edits tonight! THXMusicMovesMe (talk) 03:18, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Did you read the edits before assuming a conflict of interest existed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wfmefamilyradio (talkcontribs) 20:58, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] IIPM

Regarding the warning you left on my talk page. If you see the IIPM talk page you will see I am trying to start a discussion, but the white-washers are not responding. They are also placing fake edit-lock tags to make their faje version stick. Makrandjoshi (talk) 16:49, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the edit-lock. This page was under an edit-lock for almost a year, because one side refuses to discuss differences (you can check the discussion section). Your lock expires on June 3rd. They will be back and start edit-warring. Their whole purpose is to keep edit-warring and play the odds that their version will be the one that sticks due to an edit-lock. Makrandjoshi (talk) 16:55, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I second Makrandjoshi's comments.

As soon as the protection you placed expired, yet another sockpuppet of indef blocked User:Sonu1008, now called User:Sonu-nn resumed the revert war. Please re-protect the article until someone posts a legitimate request to unprottect it on WP:RFPP. Thanks. ~Amatulić (talk) 20:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Daynal

A follow up on this closed sock-puppet block - could you look over this proposal for unblocking? I know you are on a wikibreak, but if you happen to stop by, I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks. Pastordavid (talk) 19:06, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
