[edit] Seamus Blackley
Hey, thanks for turning that article into a proper one and adding all that info. All I knew of him was what he did in regards to Flight Unlimited. I had no idea about his numerous other contributions!--DooMDrat 06:12, Apr 25, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] User talk
Frankly, Justin shouldn't have to settle for a User_talk page on Wiki. An honesttogoodness Wikipedia article is in order.
[edit] Ah, thanks for correcting me on the Seamus Blackly article
I should never 100% trust a Wikipedia image uploader's caption saying that was Seamus Blackly. (I removed the misinformed caption) When I zoomed on the scan cover, you're definitely right and your user page states that you have met him before. Thanks for removing it. :-) --Krystyn Dominik 7 July 2005 02:38 (UTC)
[edit] Swarthmore
I see you went to Swarthmore from Wikipedians by alma mater. I'm thinking of applying there next year. Any advice or words of wisdom for me? Neutralitytalk 01:59, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Bio rewrite
Hey Justin, just saw that you had a page here, at Justin Hall. :) I went ahead and wikified it a bit... If I ended up removing anything that you feel is important, please accept my apologies -- let me know a good reference for it, and I'll go ahead and get it re-added. See you at GDC?

[edit] danah boyd
Hi Justin, Joe Hall here from UC Berkeley. I'm thinking about proposing Danah boyd to be deleted. She's a good friend and such but recent doubts about notability Talk:Danah boyd and seeing that you created it and that I'm editing a lot leads me to wonder about issues of WP:VAIN. Thoughts? -- Joebeone (Talk) 20:51, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka
Thank you very much for your support in my RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I do appreciate your comments, am still in support of the Wikipedia project, and will continue to contribute without interruption. Thanks again! --Elonka 19:28, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bruce Woodcock
Justin, hiya, I'm contacting you as a neutral editor who knows the game industry. I have no idea whether or not you know Bruce Woodcock personally, but if you have a moment, could you please take a look at the AfD on his article and offer an opinion concerning notability? Thanks, --Elonka 01:13, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Game-related AfDs
BTW, you might want to watchlist this page, as it contains a steadily-scrolling list of game-related articles on Wikipedia which have been nominated for deletion. It's far too busy to participate in every one, but I scan through it every few days, to see if there are any subjects in particular where I'd like to offer an opinion: Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games/Deletion. --Elonka 21:37, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] howdy...!
Between 1994 and 2005, I wrote a few thousand web pages about my life.
Wait, you're that Justin. Still humble, I see. I remember you ... I moved (back) to the Bay Area in 1994 and a number of people I was meeting (around Cyborganic's TNDs, for example) were talking about you. I remember that cross-country gig you did. Very cool days. In years since, when people mention how big "blogging" is, I just chuckle and say, "You d'know the half of it. See, back in '94, there was this guy...." Live long and prosper, Justin. — David Spalding ta!k y@wp/Contribs 01:43, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mizuko Ito
Mizuko Ito has been proposed for deletion via afd. thought you'd want to know. --Buridan 16:32, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome, but it was prolly Buridan, --Jasonnolan 02:02, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notability of Austin Grossman
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Austin Grossman, by MrPibbs (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Austin Grossman seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Austin Grossman, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 06:26, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka 2
Thank you for your support in my Request for Adminship. Unfortunately the nomination did not succeed, but please rest assured that I am still in full support of the Wikipedia project, and I'll try again in a few months! If you ever have any questions or suggestions for me, please don't hesitate to contact me. Best wishes, --Elonka 03:39, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Proposed deletion of Ranjit Bhatnagar
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ranjit Bhatnagar, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Gazimoff WriteRead 16:47, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
