The neutrality label was taken off of this page because it has been there for a few months now, and still no one has anything to say about it in the discussion, ie pointing out where it occurs.
It was not vandalism or anywhere near vandalism. And I hope your other "vandalism" finds are more real than this one, or else you should hand your medals back.
And instead of sending me a message Mr. Hall Monitor why don't you just fix the article. Else leave it alone. --Itchy-Finger 16:20, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism
An individual with IP address 65.96.234.178 is constantly engaged in vandalizing the Iran article. I have checked his so-called contributions, and it seems that he/she is targeting articles related to Iran. So could you please warn him or block him from editing in order to stop his childish vandalism? Thanks Zoroastrian 08:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Luke, on the same subject, I undid a couple of vandalizing edits by user with the IP address 71.123.240.56 . What else should be done? Should I leave a message telling him to stop it, or does an administrator does it? Merci.Ninarosa 04:28, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Luke, the article on Blaise Pascal has been vandalized basically every other day by unregistered users. How can I protect it? Thanks.--Ninarosa 01:35, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Question on vandalism warning
It appears that last month you gave [1] the User:Thijs!bot bot a {{test2}} vandalism warning because it added [2] interwiki links to Jackass (TV series). Was this just a simple mistake, or are you unfamiliar with InterWiki links? Thanks, --Kralizec! (talk) 18:01, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Woops, VP2 bug, the edit I reverted was that one

Making great Links
Thanks for the correction. I now get it, however have another problem you could help me on. I would like to make Talk like yours (using of course my User Name). I have it just like yours, with my User Name however it doesn't work. Can you look at My Preferences to see where I made the (obvious) mistake. Thanks again....--Doug talk 22:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
I just checked it from your User talk page and it seems to be working properly. Perhaps that is the problem, that "Talk" will not work from my pages (actually I think that makes sense, since why would one want to talk to oneself - which I do all the time anyway, so that's why I didn't notice this). --Doug talk 22:09, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Semi-Protect
Dude, perhaps we should semi-protect your user page and talk page. The vandalism on the talk page is even more prevalent on this page than the main user page. It's really bad; thank god we have a scapegoat valuable user who doesn't mind taking so much crap. DoomsDay349 22:15, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- How would I have fun without the regular idiots vandalizing my page? :( No to be honest I take it as a proof my work is useful here (and that the vandals think I am quite effective ;). If it really gets out of hand I will consider asking for my userpage protection (since I often miss the vandalism there). Thanks for the advice though :) -- lucasbfr talk 22:43, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Articles of unclear importance
Hi! You probably won't remember it but last June you tagged Boron phosphide as being of unclear importance. The tag being still there and the article not being updated, I was considering removing it from there (the backlog at Category:Wikipedia articles with topics of unclear importance from June 2006 is huge) since the article is already marked as a stub. What do you think about that? Do you have any idea on how to improve such articles (a lot of Chemistry components are marked as such). Thanks for your input! (I would appreciate if you could answer me on my talk page. I might miss your answer otherwise, my watchlist being overcrowded) -- lucasbfr talk 20:33, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well, the way to improve them is to do some actual research and write interesting things about them. I try not to get involved in discussions about whether to remove some tag or leave it there, because either way it doesn't actually improve the article. So go ahead and remove it if you think it'll help people be more productive. —Keenan Pepper 04:03, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Kimbo Slice?
You wrote to me on 9 Jan 07
"Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Kimbo Slice. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. -- lucasbfr talk 19:45, 9 January 2007 (UTC)"
Until a minute ago (when I got this) I had never been to the Kimbo Slice page. I've got no idea who he is and certainly have never made a change to the page. I think you pointed your finger at the wrong goober ;) -- but thanks for the tip on the Sandbox, that's helpful.
JS
- The answer is that it seems that your IP address changes every time you reload a page (you changed your IP twice while writing me). Therefore you probably catched a message intended for an other user :). Hope that helps :) -- lucasbfr talk 16:01, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

You Are Not God
You are a Wikipedia fanatic. And with all things fanatism is not good, it hurts everybody and everything. You assume you know best, over everybody, you never accept responsibility your replies to people imply that you are above all else. You need to take a 4 week vacation and come back to wiki. Yes people who purposefully vandalize hurt wiki, but people like yourself that treats everyone as a criminal also hurt wiki, you need to wake up and stop treating people like trash just because you think you know right. Itchy-Finger 16:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC) And this time I didn't forget to sign it.
- Ok, settle down buddy. I don't know why you have a grudge against me. My answer was short for 2 main reasons: I am at work right now and I assyme my employer is paying me to work better than surfing on Wikipedia. I am not vandal fighting during work hours. :) But I wanted to answer him ASAP since I know I couldn't reach him otherwise (even this way I think he will never see my message). I don't feel my answer was a know it all thing or condescending. Perhaps I was wrong but in that case I invite him (not you) to tell me so, I am always happy to lean something new in English. Why didn't I apologize? Because there was no mistake on my side (and God knows I am prone to apologize when I am at fault). I checked the edit and the warning was deserved. But this user's IP is changing each time he reloads a page so we can assume he got a message intended to someone else. I am more than happy to explain what I do, and I think that's what I did. -- lucasbfr talk 18:37, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

The page that gave me the "blacklist" error was hypertext fiction.

Thanks again
I am the IT teacher at the school concerned. The people who made the malicious changes (those who logged in anyway) are not connected with the school as far as I know. I can't comment on the issue itself as I have not been directly involved and I believe it is still undergoing legal process. I started the article as a way of introducing Wikipedia to my students, so I didn't want them to see some of the things being said. Anyway, there are other places on the internet for these people to express their opinions, so I welcome them to go to or create a more appropriate forum, not Wikipedia. To the best of my knowledge, my edits to the article have been factually correct.
Thank you for adding it to your watch list.

Columns
Hi Lucas, you seem to know more about scripting than I do. If you have a couple of secs, is there any chance that you could look at the overview table, and reduce the width of the title column on the left as it's a bit large please. Cheers Khukri (talk . contribs) 15:33, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
- I tweaked the width to 40% of the total table width. That's far from perfect but that's the only simple workaround I could think of. Tell me if that's better -- lucasbfr talk 15:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

- That's a bit better, I might drop it down to 30%, but do you know at the same time how to make all the rows the same height, just for aesthetics.

Hi Lucas,
I am new to Wikipedia.
I would like to create a company profile for Chip eServices, similar to that of Global Logic and the other Software-as-a-Service providers but I cannot find similar templates.

Re article removed
Hi Lucas,
I am totally confused!
I thought that there was no problem with the article about the Manufacturing Engineering Centre (MEC) and the issue of copyright for the biography of Prof. Pham has been setlted.
To my amazement, this morning, I found out that the article was deleted, without any warning, by some so-called administrators who think that an article about a very well-known university research centre is 'blatant advertising' whilst an article about the fast food chain Mc Donald is not!
It looks like there is a total communication break down in the wikipedia organisation. It is a complete waste of time to write any article in Wikipedia when anyone could remove it as he wishes.

Hi Lucas,
We think it is important that readers of Wikipedia's SaaS article are aware of our software. According to your SaaS article we cannot be listed as an SaaS vendor unless we have a company article. We accept that our company, of itself, may not be of interest within Wikipedia. However, we develop software that is extremely innovative in the SaaS space and we feel that our company should be listed in the SaaS article. SaaS is an emerging technological and marketing phenomenon. We believe that researchers in this area should have access to the most extensive cross section possible of practitioners in the field.
I would appreciate your feedback.
Thanks, Rose.
--Chipeservices 13:48, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, and thank you for your question. My own opinion is that you shouldn't advertise yourself on Wikipedia, because that would lead to a strong Conflict of Interests since you are actually selling something, and Wikipedia should in no way be used for advertisement. You should be extra careful if you decide to do so nevertheless. I pointed you to the relevant guidelines to follow, namely Conflict of Interest and Corporation Notability. You can also read the Spamming policy (especially the How not to be a spammer section) and What Wikipedia is Not if you want further informations. What happens most of the time is that if your technology is a major breakthrough, surely an editor will write about it in the future.

It comes at a funny moment, just when I am turning more towards working with people than with templates. But I still find it a good relaxation in between. Tell the truth, one reason why I'm working less on templates is that there are many templates I can't edit, such as {{tl}}, which means that I have to create forks like {{tltt}}. Is there anything that could be done about that? — Sebastian 21:40, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Appropriate language for Talk pages?
Luke, could you check out this exchange http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Raul_Hilberg (first section, Zundel trials)? Just see if the language is appropriate or too provocative.

Location Maps
On the WikiProject Countries talk page, you had either explictly declared a general interest in the project, or had participated at a discussion that appears related to Location Maps for European countries.
New maps had been created by David Liuzzo, and are available for the countries of the European continent, and for countries of the European Union exist in two versions. From November 16, 2006 till January 31, 2007, a poll had tried to find a consensus for usage of 'old' or of which and where 'new' version maps. At its closing, 25 people had spoken in favor of either of the two presented usages of new versions but neither version had reached a consensus (12 and 13), and 18 had preferred old maps.
As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions), and also which new version should be applied for which countries.
Please note that since January 1, 2007 all new maps became updated by David Liuzzo (including a world locator, enlarged cut-out for small countries) and as of February 4, 2007 the restricted licence that had jeopardized their availability on Wikimedia Commons, became more free. The subsections on the talk page that had shown David Liuzzo's original maps, now show his most recent design.
Please read the discussion (also in other sections α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η, θ) and in particular the arguments offered by the forementioned poll, while realizing some comments to have been made prior to updating the maps, and all prior to modifying the licences, before carefully reading the presentation of the currently open survey. You are invited to only then finally make up your mind and vote for only one option.
There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 7 Feb 2007 20:22 (UTC)
What...?
During my edit a remark I did not intend was placed in the joost article. Don't know how!?! The remark was there in an earlier edit... I intended to edit the link to orkut. If I'm right about orkut please removed the link. If I'm wrong please explane the value of the link... I do not see the purpose of this link (other than advertisement for a not related product). I await your input on orkut. Thanks in advance. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.173.106.75 (talk • contribs).

On Bonney Eberndu
I've now expanded this article and made its assertion of notability clearer. I wasn't the original author and had never heard of him before the page came up for AfD, but anyone who had four separate articles on him in the UK press automatically passes WP:BIO, as it constitutes multiple non-trivial coverage in independent sources. So are you now satisfied with the state of the article, or do you still believe it should be deleted? Walton monarchist89 15:08, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I believe the infromation is correct, even though I don'y have any web or book references.
I know this information is true due to myself being a student at Exeter College, where I have met various lecturers who taught Matt Bellamy whilst he was at Exeter College, there are also some of his original piano compositions that he wrote whilst taking a Music course here, available to view.

WP:RFCU and clerks
Greetings! A recent change has been made in the clerking system at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser. There are no longer any obstacles to editors who wish to help out in this areas, as the standby list has now been deprecated. You were listed as a volunteer on the standby list before it was deprecated. If you are still interested in helping out in this area, please:
- Consider adding yourself to the list of active clerks at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks.
- In helping, please make sure you follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Procedures as it is very important to the process there to follow these instructions for smooth operation.
- Please remember "Trust between the clerks and the checkusers is essential. Clerks who persistently make problematic comments on requests or otherwise violate decorum may be asked by the checkusers to cease contributing here."
- Add Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks/Noticeboard to your watchlist to stay up to do date on the latest communications happening regarding this role.
- "Be aware that this position is rather dull and carries no particular prestige; status-seeking will not be looked upon kindly."
I am not involved with the checkuser system. I am acting only to inform you of this change. Thank you. --Durin 14:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

How is the Evidox page i created advertisment? Everything I wrote is a fact. So are you saying that we should not have companys in Wikipedia? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bhuelsman (talk • contribs).
- Hi, the article was deleted on the grounds it was an advertisement and a copyright violation of the company's home page. First of all, we take copyright issues very seriously and the article would probably have been deleted under these grounds. Wikipedia's article are licensed under the GFDL, that basically allows anyone to use it for any purpose, which is not possible without explicit authorization from the copyright holder. For the advertisement claim, unfortunately I don't have the ability to access deleted articles so I will stay general. An admin and I had the feeling the article was promoting the company, and was not written in the tone we wait for in an encyclopedia. I suggest you to read WP:SPAM#How_not_to_be_a_spammer, if you want some guidelines about how to write an article about a company. I also suggest you to read WP:CORP, an official policy that states which companies are notable enough to be included and which aren't.

You might want to consider running a checkuser on that one by the way. I don't know the whole story so I would screw it up, you'll need to find a recently blocked sock of him.
- Already done, see WP:LTA/Roitr#Anonymous_IPs. He has no permanent IP and his provider assigns him a random address from their whole DSL rangeblock, which means admins must block a couple of /16 for new account creation and anonymous IP access, affecting substantial part of Israel.

WP:SELF on OTRS.
Re [9], I think using {{selfref}} on dab pages like AIV is not as bad as on articles like OTRS. The problem with self-refs on articles is that it doesn't make sense for readers of Wikipedia or people printing articles via e.g. PediaPress, and that linking to the wikipedia namespace on the talk page namespace is sufficient. Since {{selfref}} contradicts WP:SELF, I'll wait for community consensus and I won't remove the link from OTRS. -- Jeandré, 2007-03-30t10:57z

Your page was tagged by me and a fellow editor for deletion, and this decision was endorsed by an admin as you can see in the deletion log. If I remember well, the article you created failed to meet the WP:BIO policy. For example, an actor needs to Have appeared in well-known films, stage plays, television, and other productions to be included. If after reading this policy, and our conflict of interest policy (since your pseudonym on Wikipedia is the same than the title of the article), you still feel the article was deleted by mistake, I suggest you to contact the admin that deleted the page, User:Irishguy.

Sockpuppetry at the Fellowship of Friends page
Hello Luca, I am a new user so I apologize for my lack of experience. REDVERS, an Administrator working on the Fellowship of Friends page, sent me the following message yesterday:
- Hi Mario, on the talk page of Fellowship of Friends, I offered Wikipedia's best way for how to resolve these disputes (basically WP:RS); sadly, this was basically ignored and very obvious sockpuppetry was resorted to instead, by people who held the high ground in the dispute. This led to the page being unprotected at your request and the edit war kicking off again, as it would when underhand methods are being used.
I asked for a checkuser for the 4 editors linked on the diffs (Veronicapoe, Nixwisser, Unicorn144 and Babycondor) by now I realize that Redvers was indicating that Babycondor is a sock puppet of Nixwisser. I am correct? How can you tell that comparing the diffs? Thank you for your help. MFantoni 12:12, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Checkuser question
There's a proposed community ban for discussion of a prolific sockpuppeteer here, which looks likely to result in a ban. The editor in question actually has two checkusers, one here and an older one here. The Rms125a account was well before my time on Wikipedia, and I was only made aware how far back the sockpuppetry went following the more recent checkuser. Now, given the abuse of sockpuppets to date, it's unlikely the editor will stop because of the community ban. When I was request a checkuser at any point in the future would it be best to use the O'Donoghue page with an explanation that O'Donoghue is actually Rms125a, or would I use the Rms125a page? Or would the pages be better off merged by say a checkuser clerk? Thanks. One Night In Hackney303 18:58, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

User blocking
I am not sure as to why I had been blocked from editing. (All I have edited on Wikipedia myself, is an article about octagons, since it had no links to the other polygons. Now it does.)
The articles I have been said to have vandalised, I have not.
I am extremely angry (not at yourselves) that content of this sort: "jakes penis is soo small that even when seen with a magnifying glass it still remains tiny, however that is nothing compared to giacomo who actually has a vagina" has been added to Wikipedia somehow through my IP address.
I am confused as to why and how this has happened since I am not one to vandalise such a useful resource, which I use quite regularly and find to be of a great help.
I acknowledge that Wikipedia is made up of user added content. I am pleased that people such as yourselves do not allow this sort of content to be added and greatly appreciate the time taken to filter out these disgraceful alterations that people make.
I am sorry if I caused any inconvienience, but am angered that this has happened since I am not a person who would not carry out such immature behaviour. I am thankful that you have unblocked the allowance for editing, but am still thoroughly confused as to how your article on evolution and organism were edited under my IP address.

Josef Szombathy
You applied a speedy delete tag to Josef Szombathy. A pretty usless article at present, but just as a thought did you try a quick Google before tagging it, and did you see the Ducth Wiki page on him? A poor article indeed, but a seemingly notable person who pass WP:notability. Rgds, - Trident13 11:01, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

- Agreed it is a poor article, but you then have two choices - apply speed delete for various piecs of rubbish, or if they/the subject is real and does pass WP:notability apply a notability tag, allowing time for the original creator or other editors to expand the article. If a quick search shows notability, then removing the article just means it will be replaced at some point - a notability tag means it should be expanded. Its a lesson I have learnt from applying speedy tags to articles, where a bit of research and an inexperinced editor can add up to better contributions. Rgds, - Trident13 11:11, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Tags
Actually, your the one whos mixed up {db-blanked} and {db-empty}. The article in question had been blanked by the only contributor to it, just like the blanked tag says. Empty is for articles of like a sentence, or just a title and a weblink, NOT articles that have been blanked. It does say to this affect quite clearly on both tags, but I'm sure it's a (relatively) easy mistake to make. DarkSaber2k 11:51, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi there
Hi Lucasbfr,
i've created a page with subject: Genie-soft and you have kindly deleted the page. i didn't post it because i work at Genie-soft or something. i posted it because i believe such company should be supported and should be very well knows because it sets an example for other people about determination and well.
This is a third world company with international standards of excellence ... and they have an unprecedented record for being such a company in the Middle East.
I've checked other companies' pages on your website, such as Symantec, Acronis, Panda, and others ... and i wrote in the same manner these pages were written. no promotional material was included and it written in an unbiased way.
Could you please clarify the reason(s) why you deleted the page? and if so, could you please also check the pages i mentioned above and compare the one i wrote about Genie-soft with them and find if there is any difference between them?
Your prompt response is highly appreciated.

Hopefully someone will be able to find more references (many stuff can be found on their websites, I guess). For now, I won't be focusing on this article, but, let me assure you that it is quite popular in Turkey. DenizTC 13:46, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
I think it will be fine once we find sources, since the delete votes (there were only two, so it wasn't well advertised I guess) were about the lack of sources. The second delete vote even mentions that it can be rewritten. I guess I will need to prioritize this. I think I should first find more sources before doing any deletion review, and I might ask for your help for the review, as I haven't done anything like that before, though I don't think it is a big deal.

hi good person,
you had written to me asking not to use copyrighted text from websites etc. what i did was copy and paste text from my own website about myself to wikipedia so people know what i do in relation to documentaries and such. i guess i've read somewhere that we are not supposed to write about ourselves, but i doubt anyone else would bother, and i don't have any assistants to pretend to be writing about me in my absence. so anyhow - i'm going to try this once more and i hope you don't mind. we are launching a new feature documentary so i just wanted to toss my basic info out there.
i thank you so much and wish you a wonderful day,

I tried to follow the wikipedia criterias, and as for example I followed the same template as in the buffer overflow value, which related to the value I added. I think that this value was needed to be add to the encyclopedia, so please consider it again.

Deletion
Hello! Who are you? Did you delete my article about "Los soneros del barrio" or did someone else do that? I don't understand a thing (although I've tried to follow references and Wiki advice, but several times they led to nothing). It's really weird if that article was deleted based on notability since they are one of the most well-known salsa bands in the world. I don't get it... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cmlewan (talk • contribs) 01:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC).

Thanks for your reply. Is it correct Wikipedia procedure to reply here? Anyway, I start to understand why so many internationally well-known salsa bands are not in en.Wikipedia, eg. Anthony Cruz, Angel Canales, Jimmy Bosch, La Sonora Carruseles, Mamborama, Manolito y su Trabuco, Maraca, New Swing Sextet, Pedro Jesus, Polo Montanez, Puerto Rican Power, Susie Hansen, Wayne Gorbea and Yuri Buenaventura - household names for those who listen and dance to the music. When people write about them, the articles unfortunately get tagged for "speedy deletion", I suppose. I am from Sweden and I know the NY band "Los soneros del barrio" because it's frequently played at the salsa dance places here. Like many other famous bands that are not in en.Wikipedia. I see eg. on a French webpage that "Los soneros del barrio" is called the "famous salsa band" ("le fameux groupe"). It was just a coincidence that I started to write about them of all the international salsa bands. This is only a comment. I will talk to this 'Phaedriel'. But I'm worried about the [de-]selection criteria in Wikipedia. Cmlewan 18:35, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Kwai Nyu Rugby Club
According to the entry, you recommended that the article entitled "Kwai Nyu Rugby" be deleted. I hope you will reconsider. This entry has been on Wikipedia for over a year now, and has been heavily used. Do look up the team on Google, Answers.com, etc. The team is especially significant as a landmark in the history of Missouri rugby, and its tournament has deep historical roots as well. The team itself has a fascinating history, and its web site is extremely helpful for teaching rugby. As the article in Wikipedia has been up for a year now, some users have grown rather dependent on it. I would deeply appreciate your reconsidering this recommendation.

They have sent an email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org stating that it is not a copyright violation if the user panpacifichr (me) were to take content from their pages to update the articles about their properties.
The intention is NOT to promote the properties, just ensure there is adequate and accurate information about the properties mentioned.
Please advise.

Miss canada international edit
I edited the page because it was obviously edited prevously with mis-information and allegations from a very small group of people with a vendetta who are on a personal smear campaign against the organization who does good works for charity, does not abuse delegates, starve them, etc as claimed. Miss Canada International has never been sued, Leeann Baird was not detrhoned (follow the link to her page and it discusses 'after her reign') she was simply not allowed to crown her successor. Verifiable on the Miss Canada International home page. Any other information you would like.

Checkuser request question
Sorry to bother, but I just added a request for a checkuser, and I'm not sure if I tagged it correctly to get it listed. The case is at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Regulations (I added a new request to the archived ones). I tagged it in Category:Checkuser requests to be listed, but just wanted to double-check I hadn't screwed anything up to get it listed on the main page. Thanks. MastCell Talk 17:36, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Checkuser on yourself
- Per Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser -- "Checkuser on yourself to "prove your innocence" Such requests are not accepted. Please do not ask". -- That is why I tagged Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Lsi john, and also noted the policy. I restored the notes and the speedy delete tag.

Rather improper COI
I find it rather improper that Smee gets to create pages which imply intentional wrong doing, suggest guilt, and then he shows serious COI by editing a request to clear me of those allegations.
He demonstrated COI, when he deleted and reworded my 3O requests by pretending to fix the entry [here] and then issued a ruling in his edit summary [here] and attemped to force my 3O question off the board [here] but was ruled against [here] and [here]
Please notice that he also reverts with COI involved in other places showing up, out of the blue and revering me twice [here] and [here]
And then again [[15]], for which he was reverted [here] and was reminded that it was improper [here]
He refused to make a promise not to revert my article tags based on virtually the same criteria issued in the 3O [here]
Also when an editor stopped by to see if I need help [here], Smee showed up on my talk page to disrupt the conversation with spurious comments [here and [here]
His comments were deleted as disruptive yet he came back again [here] to add yet another disruption. And when that was unsuccessful, he posted [here] on his userpage in an attempt to make his disruption look innocent:
-
"Most interesting. I share with a user how fun it can be to edit constructively by either creating new articles or searching for reputable secondary sourced citations, and my comments are deemed "disruptive". Oh well... " Smee 12:58, 4 May 2007 (UTC).
Here, too, he showed up and in the middle of my editing [here] and [here] he decided to edit the same line [[16]] and [here].
Rather than fight, I left that article alone and please note that he stopped editing that article as soon as I left. This has happened in other articles as well. I don't know the definition of stalking or harassment on wiki, but it does seem to be getting close to some form of it.
I would like the harassment to stop, without my having to leave wikipedia. To do that, in part, I'd like to establish that I am not a sock and have his frivolous and prejudicial categories and pages removed.

I did note that he'd show up here. He can't help it. He simply must post in every conversation I'm in, just to show his presence, just to show me that he's watching me, just to show me that I can't edit anywhere on wiki that he won't find me. Even if its a seemingly harmless comment. He can't resist posting.. just to let me know.. Its sad, actually. Lsi john 16:37, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
As for him being reasonable and working things out.. I'm open. Would you be so kind as to get him to sit down and agree to stop harassing me. We'll need to spell it out exactly, as he has repeatedly refused to make specific and binding commitments in the past for such things as [agreeing] to not improperly revert my article tags.

Complaint
You just tried to delete my page "The Eagle and the Hawk" about 5 minutes after I created it and while I was still typing it. Why don't you try to have a small amount of respect for others? If you had bothered to wait until I typed more than the first 2 lines of the article you may have been in a position to appreciate any interest it contained and whether it complied with the Wikipedia guidelines. As it is, your dictatorial style has put me off trying to continue with this - which was my first article on Wiki. If Wiki is like this, then there are plenty of other things to do with my time. Maybe you should try and be a bit more inclusive? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SAEvans (talk • contribs) 15:48, 11 May 2007 (UTC).

Deletion of Gin Bucket article
I would like to object to the deletion of the article entitled "Gin Bucket", because it is not simply something "made up in school one day". It is a local but popular and well-established drinking game that has existed for many years. An article on it should be considered just as legitimate as any of the other articles on various drinking games.
While I understand that Wikipedia should be for notable subjects only, I urge you to compare the Gin Bucket article to others linked to in the Drinking Game article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Abeckon (talk • contribs) 21:53, 11 May 2007 (UTC).

No this isn't a personal page.
It was specifically spelled out in the entry that the project takes advantage of social netorking feratures to promote the development of Linux on the Newton.
The entry existed for 5 minutes. How could you make such an erroneous judgment for this wiki page?
You certainly couldn't have read all of the documentation on the site or even taken the time to read any of it in 5 minutes.
If you have, please post your resulting port of Linux to the Newton.
Otherwise, leave this entry as it is, so others may expand it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by UNIXcoffee928 (talk • contribs) 18:17, 12 May 2007 (UTC).

re: prod patrol
Hey Lucas! First off - congratulations :) Secondly - for prods I use the text that appears in the template, the first line of text that appears in coded form? It reads Expired [[WP:PROD|prod]], concern was: insert concern. Secondly, for speedies, I use a really useful script coded by ^demon. Just put this in your monobook:
// CSD AutoReason
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="'
+ 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:^demon/csd.js'
+ '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>');
Hope that helps! :) Take care, – Riana ⁂ 10:26, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
- Just a further comment - I imagine ^demon's script could be tweaked a little in order to provide deletion summaries for prodded articles as well, except that they don't always fall into clear-cut categories. But I guess common concerns - notability, transwiki, userpage of inactive user - could be included into it. – Riana ⁂ 10:36, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

I am really thankful to you. If the Indian Law changes tomorrow it will be a real thanks to Wikipedia.
Also, this is a real unseen thing I brought out in public. Something that really did not get anyones attention so far. I will try to file a Public Interest Litigation if time permits. This could help removing the dirty caste system from India in actual sense. At least if the text is seen, some wise fellow will take an action over the same.

Hi,
The Drug Education Forum's page has been tagged for speedy deletion, but as a newbie here I don't understand why. The original note said:
This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location.
The Forum is not a web page or internet forum it is a umbrella organisation for national organisations in England.
The organisation has a website, but tell me one that doesn't?
DarkSabersays that you deleated it because it appeared to be a copyright infringement, but again I'm not sure what brought you to that conclusion.

Speedy of Tim Bulman
Hi! You deleted Tim Bulman as a bio with no assertion of notability. The page explained, if poorly, that he is an NFL player. That seems like an assertion of notability to me. Am I missing something? Thanks, William Pietri 23:44, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Unblocking Brmstckstrivia (talk · contribs)
This user is quite unlikely to be a Brya sock,looking at his contributions, and probably is someone who got caught in a IP snag (maybe an organizational IP?)

Aloha Lucas, you recently mesaged me about my vandalism to the hapa page. I read the the hapa page and noticed there were many errors on the page and I edited those errors rewriting much of the misinformation. However, the page reverted back to its previous form (the one with errors). I re-edited the page again and again, each time with the page reverting to its previous form. I deleted the page with intention of rewriting it entirely, however I did not get to it. I apologize for the apparent vandalism I have caused, although I wonder why my constructive editing was never saved, and yet my accidental deletion of the hapa page stayed intact. Is there any reason for this?

Deletion of "The Adored"
You deleted the page The Adored Deletion log for said is "Non-notable band" It seems that the idiotic, non-democratic, hierarchical, web 1.0, non-social media way of running wikipedia dictates that someone can only be notable if they have sufficient g-hits, they have 1,430,000. I have looked through AfD and it appears no complaint was made, plus i cannot find out exactly how it was deleted (PROD or Speedy) and so cannot find just reason.

Notability of bands include one critera 7. 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. According to wikipedia's 'chosen' source allmusic.com states thus "were mainstays on the hardcore scene in northern California" Also, if i want to suggest that the way wikipedia operates is completly quote "retarded" where would I go? 82.43.111.162 16:02, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

re: warnings removal on talk pages
Thanks for your message on my talk page with respect to this topic. I was sort of expecting/dreading such a message, but am actually impressed that someone on Wikipedia noticed my edits to User talk:Garric and corrected me since I had a feeling I had made a mistake in terms of my warning to that user. I now understand the current consensus on this issue, and I think my question here demonstrates my previous confusion. After leaving a warning-type message on Garric's talk page I checked the guidelines re: talk page deletions (which is something I had never actually read about before) and realized I was probably in error in this respect, though I was surprised by this since it seemed like deletions of warnings on your own talk page was something I had seen warnings for in the past (I actually thought there was a template for it, and figured I just could not track it down).
I'll look through the crazy long discussion on this topic at some point, but do you think it's possible to have more clear guidelines on this? To a well-meaning (but relatively new) user like myself who does RC Patrol sometimes, a guideline like the following at WP:USER ("Policy does not prohibit users from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred. The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. Deleted warnings can still be found in the page history") seems a bit ambiguous and also is not highlighted that prominently (I had never seen it before, though I probably should have). On RC Patrol it's easy to assume that deleting warning messages on your own talk page is inappropriate, so the fact that this is not the case should perhaps be more emphasized. If you have an idea about how to do this I would work on it. You can let me know here or on my talk page.
At any rate, I'm sorry for the improper edits I made to Garric's talk page.
PS--On a humorous personal note (which I add after I looked at your user page) my girlfriend/partner is half-French and has French citizenship (on her mother's side), thus I am one of those rare Americans who actually does not mind being corrected by a Frenchman!

KJACK ARTICLE!
Hi there,
You helped to erroneously delete an article that I authored. KJACK. The user user:Kjack1680 who began the deletion process is not a regular user of wikipedia and apparently suggested the article for deletion for personal reasons. That article was created as a historical account of an ACTUAL and functioning radio station that I helped to start. I have been doing MASSIVE amounts of work on the article and it is now all gone. Please help me to get the article back on or at least get the content back so that I may do what I need to get it back up in the future.

Thanks for your reply. I guess my concern now becomes how to prove this article notable and how to source it. Before creating any content on the article, I researched several other college radio stations and tried to emulate many of those. The station was something that I helped to start and is an integral part of the Northern Arizona University School of Communications. I am no longer a student there nor am I involved directly with the station. I have been gathering content from fellow graduates who worked at the station as well as faculty that were involved. How can I go about proving notability and citing sources that are largely first-hand account? If you could post the article to my user page so that I may back up the entry locally on my machine while I try to get my questions answered I would greatly appreciate it.

templates
Thank you very much for your help. Curious problem since I saved them successfully at least once, and the page rendered as expected at that point. The problem came up when at one point I decided to swap the code for two templates, and the code for {{Sumo basho award}} is currently sitting in User:Csernica/Sandbox/Sumo/Sansho which I can get to just fine -- or was able to get to just fine; it has a problem now too. This makes me thing the trouble has to do with referencing templates that don't currently exist, or end up with an infinite recursive loop. That's a problem I hadn't considered would arise, but I think that must be it. TCC (talk) (contribs) 23:05, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Sunfitters Beach Shop
Hello Lucas. You deleted the page wiki/Sunfitters_Beach_Shop. I would ask you to restore the page please. Using the reasons you stated for deleting Sunfitters' page, will you also purge half the companies under Category:Online_retail_companies_of_the_United_States? Would you remove the companies listed under Category:Companies_based_in_Massachusetts? Would you delete virtually the entire list under Category:Companies_established_in_2006?
Sunfitters is something unique. It is creating a whole new retail category called the Beach Shop. Unlike surf shops who provide items to active sports enthusiasts, Sunfitters caters to North American adults 25-45 years of age who are traveling to a beach destination. I say respectfully that you, Lucas, are not among this market. You are not living in North America and you are not 25-45 years of age.

- Hi, Emerging Entertainment has been deleted, 3 times, because it was an article about a company that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject, then because it was an advertisement for the subject and a copyright violation of the company website. We have certain criteria companies need to meet to be included in Wikipedia. I invite you to read them. The article creation has been disabled after the 3rd deletion in a row.

PRODs
Hello. I noticed that you were deleting prods today that hadn't yet reached 5 days. I doubt that the results would have been any different for most or them, but it is possible that someone may have removed the tag and made a valid case for keeping the article on the 5th day. I certainly wouldn't undelete any of them, but in the future, you might just want to wait a bit longer before you delete them. The template has recently been changed so that the text at the top turns red when the 5 days are past, so I make it a habit to not delete any until I see that.

I noticed that you had put up the AfD template, following the removal of the CSD template from this page. However, the AfD that the template links to is for Brianna Rieffel, not the song. I'm just wondering if you were planning to take action dependent on that AfD decision, or if you had misidentified the singer's AfD from the Song article (which isn't the same, nor is the song nommed in that Afd AFAICT.)

Eagle Talon
Hello, a friend of mine suggested you to help me. I have been involved in a dispute on the Eagle Talon page, where a user called User:Spoolintsi added images of a heavilly modified facelifted Talon. Now, images of highly modified cars are obviously not allowed, since they would fail in being discriptive of the details of the car. Anyways, me and User:IFCAR, a friend of mine, reverted his edits a few times. So he took to creating a sockpuppet called User:MikeTSIawd, and continued edit warring. I thought that since the accounts were new, I got the page just semi protected. But, the original account got around it, and continued to edit war. They also took to trolling on the talk page, talking about how teh current images disgrace the car. All that aside, Checkuser confirmed that MikeTSIawd is a sockpuppet of Spoolintsi, and all my work to get this taken care of through the systems has gotten nowhere. I can tell from their contributions that they all they done is edit war on the Talon page, and that is all they will continue to do. Pretty much, I am hoping that you will able to do something to end this, so I will not have so sit forever with the page protected, so this petty dispute can be ended before it gets out of hand.

Re: Freddie Mercury and prodding
Hi – thanks for the message. I'm glad for the break – I've been working on one of those articles written by themselves for themselves, and I'm feeling a little loopy. It took me 20 minutes to get the photos off that article. I'm a sucker for punishment – I watch the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Spam/COIReports to find WP:COI problems, and it serves me right. I finally threw up my hands and gave it my best contribution – a {{prod}} tag. I'd speedy it but it claims notability, so a prodding we will go.
Anyway, user pages that aren't speedy deletion candidates go to Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion per WP:CSD#User_pages.

Hello...
Since I really have no clue who you are and I've never been involved with you on Wikipedia, I feel that whatever I'm going to say to you is not going to bite me back in the arse. Here's the situation: For months, other editors and myself have been involved in a ArbCom case and many disputes with a user call TingMing (talk · contribs). He/she was blocked indef. for distruptive edits, personal attacks and creating SOCKs to carry out malicious attacks. After he/she was banned indef. He/she created 4 or 5 more SOCKs to push his/her extreme POV and vandalise the userpages of those heavily involved with the ArbCom or involved in the process to have this user banned. Due to recent events, many editors have been vigilant in looking for similar edits to that of TingMing (talk · contribs). One user in particlular has caught the attention of the editors who have dealt with TingMing (talk · contribs): the user Heqong (talk · contribs). His/her edits follow the same MO as TingMing (talk · contribs), he/she has deemed the edits of people who do not agree with him/her as vandalism, and he has attempted to blacken my username through several "legal", if you can called certain Wikipedia function that, manuverings and has tried several tactic to attempt to scare me. As of 22:11, 13 June 2007 (UTC), a CU has been filed against the user Heqong (talk · contribs) to determine if he is a SOCK of TingMing (talk · contribs) and the CU's reply was that it was "likely". Based on this CU answer, and based on the similarities of the MOs of TingMing (talk · contribs) and Heqong (talk · contribs), I ask that you block Heqong (talk · contribs) to prevent any more personal attacks and extremist POV pushing from this particular user.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Euro banknotes2.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Euro banknotes2.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 07:21, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Bossaball
The Bossaball article was recently deleted due to copyright violation. I recreated a stub. You just deleted it because it was "about a club or group that does not assert significance". But it's not about a club or group, it's about a sport. It gets 60000+ hits on Google. There are a couple dozen links to Bossaball from other wikipedia pages. Sounds like it meets the notability requirements to me. So instead of deleting other people's work for no reason, make it better. Rracecarr 15:07, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

We might need to write an article off of Wikipedia first before handing it to admins for approval. If you want to get started now, keep in mind nearly every bit of info must be sourced. Ideally, any pictures must be taken by YOU or signed off on by their creators.
EDIT: Page is back. We still need a picture of boh3m3 that has been signed off by its creator for noncommercial use: see the licensing information under Smosh's or Barats and Bereta's picture for a better idea of what I'm talking about. Pictures you might have taken of him at "As One" are acceptable."

Hi. I'm new here. I reviewed the username policy and found no conflict. What section do you believe it violates? My username expresses my own personal opinion that wikis are politically structured in a republican form and insinuates nothing of my affiliation with this or other wikis.
I read the discussion I somehow managed to rouse on the administrator notice board. I can only assume Crazytales was offended by my opposition to their Rfa and has resorted to personal attacks.
I am making every effort to ensure Wikipedia is of high scholarly quality.

A company that originated in Kansas City in 1923, building still stands and is listed on the Kansas City Historical Registry.

Wellcome back from your wikibreak. Hope exams went well.

Trend Drinks- denial of allegation of infringement of copyright
I note that you have aslleged that I have infringed copyright, and you have deleted factual material from the article I have writtemn on this subject.
I am very disappointed that you have made this unfounded allegation, and I suggest that you retract it and that you reinstate the material you have deleted, which is factual in nature.
For your information, Trend Drinks are a well known regional soft drink supplier in South Australia, and they are a supplier of ginger beer to the Kenewek Lowender in the Copper Coast region of South Australia. Their history is interesting, and is parto f a tradition of South Australian independent niche market food producers.
The material I have presented is factual in nature.
If you wish to remove it, then I invite you to reinstate the information with your own original material so that thne quaklity of information is maintained.
Otherwise, kindly reinstate the material you have deleted. I consider your precipitous action could be regareded as vandalism- I hope that is not the case. I leave it up to you to do somnething positive and constructive in the near future. Fitzpatrickjm 10:01, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

You're wrong! I have been in communication with the proprietor of the website, and they have confirmed:
1. The material I have presented is a matter of historical fact; and
2. They do not claim copyright in historical facts.
Accordingly, there is no basis to your allegations.
In the circumstances, I believe it is fair for you to provide an apology and to retract your erroneous (and serious) allegation.
Needless to say, I will be reinstating trhe factual material so that Wikipedia can present the facts!
Also, for the record, I note that you have not presented any evidence of qualifications in the field of copyright law.

Yes thankyou, I just visited the WP:WORP page and observed the following:
The WP:CORP page says that "Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national or international in scale and information can be verified by sources that are reliable and independent of the organization. In other words, they satisfy the primary criterion above."
My article contained authentic secondary sources from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan as well as the Associate of Chartered Certified Accountants of which our firm is a member. Both these organizations are Internationally recognized governing bodies. The links given by me contain the mention of our firms name on their own websites. Moreover, our offices are also located in Newcastle - UK as well as in Leicestershire - UK in addition to Karachi - Pakistan.
The WP:CORP page further says:
"Other criteria are:
* Organizations whose activities are local in scope are usually not notable unless verifiable information from reliable independent sources can be found. (I gave those sources} * The organization’s longevity, size of membership, or major achievements, or other factors specific to the organization may be considered. We are one of the first few Pakistani Firms to be given the status of ACCA Accredited Employers and among the very few Accountancy Firms to have better Quality Control Ratings as verified by our regulatory Body, and the link of which is already given by me on that deleted page
The WP:CORP page further says:
Information on products and services should generally be included in the article on the company itself, unless the company article is so large that this would make the article unwieldy. In that case, the discussion of the company's products and services should be broken out from the company article in summary style.
If the product or service is notable, it can be broken out into its own article. If it is not notable, it should not be broken out into its own article but should have whatever verifiable information about it that exists presented within an article that has a broader scope, such as an article that deals with all of the company's products and services.
If a non-notable product or service has been written about in its own article, be bold and rename, refactor, or merge the article into an article with a broader scope, such as the company's article, creating it if necessary.
The whole theme of the deleted page was informative and no where were we using marketing language. The page was only for information purposes and a very BRIEF info about the firm and a summary of its CLIENTS / SERVICES.
I will appreciate if you would take the data posted by me on that page and create an article yourself under the name of A A Baig & Co. in the category of Accounting Firms.
One more thing, please visit these pages on Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Rhodes_Sidat_Hyder
Also in Karachi, also an accountancy firm like ours.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_and_Williamson
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenon_Group
Both Smith as well as Tenon are "LOCAL" firms restricted to UK and not international. Yet they have their pages.

Fair use rationale for Image:Druid_WoW_Night_Elf_Stormrage_Arlokk.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Druid_WoW_Night_Elf_Stormrage_Arlokk.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 16:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Deleted: Dyandra
hai Lucasbfr,
based on your move to delete an archive/page about dyandra, i just want to ask to you the reason why you delete it.
dyandra is a professional exhibition organizer in Indonesia, the company have a very incredible growth over this past 6 years, so i think it deserve a page in wikipedia, just to let the rest of the world and mainly the exhibition world know that particular company is exist in Indonesia.
it will be a great honor for me if you can give me on your opinion about the importance or significant about making the company a page in wikipedia.
thank you

Using the standard "my brother did it" excuse, but stands out from other cases a bit. Account was registered several days before the vandalism spree, and while there was one bad-ish edit, I might be ready to say they were just testing things out. They've stuck around long enough that it's hard to think of this as just another throwaway account, so I thought it was worth asking: did you have any particular feelings, regarding possibly giving this one a second chance? – Luna Santin (talk) 01:50, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Murray River Queen- the continuing saga.....
G'Day and thanks for the information so far. One more question..on page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Paddle_steamers) there is a link to the "Alexander Arbuthnot" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Arbuthnot_%28paddle_steamer%29) How do I create a link the same for the Murray River Queen..?? I have looked at the edit page for Paddle_steamers but there is nothing there to edit...???
While I am at it - I based my original entry on the one for the Alexander Arbuthnot, I copied the page and changed the information under each heading, I didnt have quite as much history as the boat was built in the 70's. How much more information do I need to provide to prevent it again meeting "Criteria for speedy deletion - Very short article providing little or no context". Or is it the fact that it was not linked to the Paddle _steamer page ...???
Thanks again. RDUNC 04:25, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

I will do some more research and come back to Wikipedia "one day". Feel free to close my account it wont be for awhile..!!
As for the aricle - when I tried to get back to it I got. "Notice: You are re-creating a page that was previously deleted.

I am afraid that the "Be Bold advice" requires someone with thicker skin than me, the learning curve apears to be too steep for this little black duck..!! The moderator who deleted the article hasnt even bothered to reply to my message.

Footnote sequencing question
You answered my question, thanks. The page was the "Driftless Area" of Wisconsin. I was looking at the 2nd section, "Formation," and saw that the footnotes were ordered 3, 2, 4 in that section, while the top section has 1 on the first line. It looked to me like 1, 3, 2, 4,..., because I did not notice that the top section also has 2, between the two sections resulting in the series 1, 2, 3, 2, 4,..., which fits your description of the possibility of 1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 4, 3, 2,... Had I noticed the 2 earlier, I would neither have spent the time digging through the help sections, etc., nor needed to ask. At least I picked-up quite a few new tools in the process, and met a helpful person as well. Grammarmonger 17:16, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of 47th Missouri Volunteer Infantry
The information I posted in said article as a stub is originally from Dyer's Compendium of the War of the Rebellion which is free for open and public use. I took my information from http://www.civilwararchive.com/Unreghst/unmoinf4.htm . Dyer's Compendium is also catalogued as a public access and use tool by the NPS on their Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System. No copyright infringement was made, unless of course the creator of the 47thmissourinfantry.com page can legally seize Dyer's now public work. The article is a stub for now, but as with every Wikipedia article, it gets continuously worked on, so a crisp and clean presentation was in the works if there had not been a premature intervention. Why was there no discussion on the legitimacy of the content before it was deleted? Auror 19:07, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Myachi pages
The "List of all Myachis" has 'no encyclopedic content,' in your opinion... But that has little difference as compared to something such as a list of all Pepsi products. There's no problem with that, though, is there? The only real differences is the products themselves.
Not to mention, why do you hold it against me that sources are hard to come by? You're the third, maybe fourth, person I've had to try to get to realize that Myachi isn't popular. There are no books, no movies, no documentaries... Just the website, the forum... And the article I'm trying to establish. Excuse me if what little sources available aren't enough for you, but that's all we've got and it will have to suffice.
BrownsFanForLife 22:47, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
So let me get this straight...
You screw me over, because I (only 16 years old, mind you) know nothing about how this damn site works, what the heck to do on it, or why everyone is so anal on it. I paraphrase those who created Myachi, men who can easily verify everything I've quoted and paraphrased. The sole article I've created, or even contributed to, is deleted and deleted and deleted. And only when I contribute to it, do people complain about its notariety. Any other version stands for eternity, but once I edit or add to it, the complaints come pouring in.
Am I right, or is there more?

Hi. Thanks for getting in touch about my creation of the above article.
It was really just as an exercise to gain some experience. I decided to randomly select something from the afc page that had been overlooked, but which I thought would probably meet Wikipedia's guidelines, then have a go at creating it. Hope this is all right.
Incidentally, while I was there, I noticed there were a few articles that are still awaiting assessment. I might start taking a look at some of these as a way of building up my editing portfolio. Thanks Brochco 13:10, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
blocking of 61.215.206.254 - inappropriate?
Please dont block this IP also, it is shared and will play nice.
It is a little confusing the blocking process, you dont get any warnings even though they are building up in your talk page - so the first time you know of any troubles you cannot respond or deal with the issue.
I am not really understanding the distinction between booksinmyphone and librevox and various other sites that let people download an authors works and are scattered through the external links. There are some differences in the medium and format and such but they are all non-commercial and seem like a good service for people, librevox lets you listen to spoken versions, bookinmyphone to read on a phone, and there seem to be plenty of others offering various other formats. Why single out this particular site?
I use things like librevox and the gutenberg computer read texts in my mp3 player when riding and also like to read off the phone on the train. I dont see many people reading on the phone - it seemed like a good thing to let people know they had the option. The more readers of PD work the better right? 218.45.243.194 13:10, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Man vs. Wild. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure what I was trying to do. it seems that some sock accounts come from that IP, but a legit user was somehow caught in the autoblock via that IP when I blocked one of them.

Dear Lucasbfr,
I'm awfully sorry, however Deon Steyn has been systematically hounding me and reverting my edits without the authority to do so and without providing a valid reason. Through this breach of wikipedia codes of conduct he has demonstrated that he doesn't respect my right to edit (if wikipedia didn't want me editting then I would be banned) and therefore I fail to see why I should respect his edits.

I still am not convinced of his arguments and as a result would refrain from discussion so that others get a fair chance to evaluate the user and his contribs.

Tor proxy softblock
The possibility of a softblock has been mentioned in the WP:TOR page since September 2006 [23] . Granted, the page is not an official policy. But in the discussion about the exact wording of WP:PROXY policy, there seems to be a consensus there should be an option (if not general policy) of only blocking anonymous edits (and creation of accounts) from open proxy addresses. (If you disagree with this, feel free to contribute to the discussion. Perhaps a workable solution might be that they should be hardblocked by default, but could be changed to a softblock if they are blocking a legitimate user and the address hasn't been abused by vandals or spammers.) - Mike Rosoft 10:32, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

I realize the Jazz Fusion genre isn't exactly storming the Top 40 charts, but you'd think the original lead guitarist from Megadeth and the drumming son of Ginger Baker (of Cream) would earn 'Ohm:' a humble slot here. What a waste of my time. Feel free to delete the entry '"Live" On KPFK 90.7 FM' as well. I'm sure not going to waste my time on this site any more. B C R X C 03:50, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

iPrismGlobal =
Hello Luis. This is related to your speedy deletion of iPrismGlobal yesterday. I wanted to include my company iPrismGlobal in the list of proprietary software List of collaborative software since we are now into version 3 to be launched September 1 and have been developing products for collaborative working and learning since 1998.
I have been working in this field for many years and have done pioneering projects for Xerox, H-P, Caucus Systems, Open Text among others. I hosted the 1999 online symposium for the European Foundation for Management Development on collaborative working and learning which was the genisis for our version 1 product.
I am only attempting to have iPrismGlobal be listed along with other proprietary software List of collaborative software products and believe this is a fair and reasonable request. Can you help me understand why you object to this ? Or, provide me information that will guide me to an acceptable listing. Thank you. Simonzxcv 13:54, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I see that you've taken care of the copyright infringement in The Heights (TV series). Do you want to help out with the backlog on Wikipedia:Copyright problems in general?

Episode articles of cancelled series?
I noticed a bunch of AFDs on articles about episodes of the "School Survival Guide" show from Nickelodeon. While I'm on the fence about whether they should be AFD'd or simply tagged "plot summary", the AFD comment says "...plot summary of nn episode of ceased series..." Why does it matter if the series was cancelled? Squidfryerchef 19:34, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- Replied on this user's talk page - 10:52, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- I think the series is still shown in syndication; what the article writers mean by "Cancelled" is that no new episodes are being produced. So it's theoretically possible that in the future someone might see one of these episodes, write a book about it about it, which could be cited in the article. But, that's not too likely. So I support the deletion but I'd recommend "cancelled" series not be used as a reason. Squidfryerchef 21:14, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Help Me - Articles Being Considered For Deletion
{{helpme}}
Hello. Question 1: Is there anywhere on Wikipedia (some list or some link or some page) where a reader can see all of the articles that are currently being debated / discussed / considered for possible deletion? Question 2: Oftentimes, I find out "too late" that an article was already deleted and that the 5-day period (or whatever) is over and done with, and I was not able to particpiate in the discussion. How do I avoid that scenario from happening, without putting every single article of interest to me on my Watch List? Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro 17:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC))
- You can find the current list at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. For AfD, no there is not much you can do after the discussion is closed (but you can talk to the deleting admin to ask if your argument can convince him to undelete the article). If the article was deleted during the proposed deletion process, when there is no discussion, just contact the admin and he should be able to undelete the article (but anyone can bring it to AfD afterwards) If you need further help, please don't hesitate to post on my talk page or to put {{helpme}} followed by your question on this page. -- lucasbfr talk 17:14, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply. For Question 1 (above), I did not see any article names on the page you referred me to. It was just a bunch of rules and policies about deletion. Please redirect me. Thanks. For Question 2 (above), how do I avoid that same scenario in the future? Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro 19:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC))
- In fact, they are on subpages organized by date Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion#Current_discussions. For AfDs, unfortunately I don't see any other way than checking your watchlist often enough. It is common practice to tell people when an article they created is put for deletion, but this is not a requirement. I hope that helps! -- lucasbfr talk 19:08, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply. I am still unclear, so let me re-phrase my question. If I want to be aware of an article's proposed deletion ahead of time (so that I can participate in the deletion discussion / debate before the debate closes) ... I have two options. (A) I need to have that specific article on my Watch List. And whenever someone edits the article (for example, to propose it for deletion), I will be notified through my Watch List. Or (B) If a specific article is not on my Watch List, I would have to keep checking and re-checking those AfD sub-pages continuously to see what, in fact, is being considered for deletion on a day-to-day basis. Question 1: So, is my understanding correct? Question 2: If my understanding is correct, isn't there any other easier way than to (a) put every single article of interest on my Watch List ... or (b) having to keep checking that AfD page a million times a day on the off chance that one of my articles of interest might be on the list? Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro 19:23, 18 August 2007 (UTC))

- If you go to the AfD sub-page for the previous day, then you need only check it once a day, or even once every 5 days as no new articles will be added to a day that has passed. Of course, if you find and AfD that concerns you, you will be checking it more often and watching how the argument progresses. As for tracking each page in your Watch list, "Speedy Delete" and AfDs are not likely to come up over articles with a long history or obvious relevance. If you just keep new articles on your list, you can likely cut down the numbers considerably. And, no, in spite of some thinking about this issue on my own behalf, I have found no easier way - yet. Bielle 19:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- What I do personally is keeping a list of the articles I want to keep an eye on (separate of my watchlist), and look at them every few days. In case of deletion discussion, there will be a big blue notice (either {{afd}} or {{prod}}) at the top. I hope that helps! -- lucasbfr talk 20:32, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately notifications of AfDs are very human-Dependant and not fool-proof. Categorized discussions uses human-sorting of AfDs according to topics of interest. In some WikiProjects participants specifically monitor and maintain a AfD-list on the list of articles that may be of the project's interest. Articles with no edits after AfD would indicate that it is being AfD'ed provided the nominator correctly includes 'AfD' (or anything similiar) in the edit summary. If you have created the article, some editors may choose to warn you on your talkpage of the AfD out of goodwill. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 02:00, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

The Global Challenge Award
Hi,
A young girl from Honduras recently posted an article on "The Global Challenge Award" which was deleted. I had tried to also post one on the project, but was declared a shameless promotion since I am the Exec Dir. This young person was a participant. The program is one of a group of similar programs sponsored by the National Science Foundation that are trying to engage today's youth in solving global warming, through a program known as the ITEST program.
Could you guide me-her-us on whether any article concerning a US national effort of this sort would be as worthy of being included in wikipedia? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dgibson (talk • contribs) 13:29, August 26, 2007 (UTC)
removing my name from El Sobrante
Hello,
Are you person who removed my name from the El Sobrante Art and Literature section?
If so, I would like to point out that my work has been published and exhibited internationally and reviewed in the New York Times and The Washington Post. I am the editor of an MIT Press book on New Media. I was the first artist in residence at Xerox Parc where I was a consultant in the field of electronic literature. My work is currently featured in Spain, and will be featured in the Iowa Review Web this year. I am a board member of the Electronic Literature Association, the former editor of the New York Foundation for the Arts online publication, and a former Associate Editor of Leonardo.
Given that I am an expert in my field, it is not against wiki policy to add my name.
Removing my name is vandalism.

Hi, this user asked for an unblock review. Personally, considering the fact that he tried to engage the discussion via his edit summaries, I think that the block here may be a bit harsh. -- lucasbfr talk 21:03, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- First, regarding his claim that he only made three reverts... that's not true. There were one (18:35, 12 Sep), two, three, and four (00:18, 13 Sep) reverts within a span of six hours.
- "Personally, considering the fact that he tried to engage the discussion via his edit summaries..." Please don't tell me you're serious. Via his edit summaries? That's not discussion. In fact, his use of edit summaries instead of the talk page is clear evidence of inflaming an edit war. If he had engaged in discussion in the appropriate location, the talk page, I might be a bit more understanding. But discussion in edit summaries is not discussion at all, but instead is a sign that said user is not interested in engaging in any sort of real discussion. -- tariqabjotu 22:52, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Lucasbfr,
- Excuse me, you chose to delete a Wikipedia entry for the term "faceosphere"? Let me guess, you have never heard of Facebook, so you cannott begin to understand it's (growing)importance. And, as an unpaid Wikipedia volunteer, you like to run around deleting things, it gives you a sense of importance. (let me guess, your paid job is working at the local Dairy Queen? Not managing it, that would be far beyond your reach).

User:Stco23
After reviewing the user's unblock request, I've reduced his indefinite block to a week and given him a final warning.

Hope this is okay with you. Neil ム 09:49, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thank You. You blocked me from finishing my message to Ryulong to reconsider the article the other day and I almost quit, because I was so upset when to did that. I did go too far with DarkFalls and almost Ryulong that I did not know that I was going to blocked by you. I did not know that rule has been around for a long time, so I took pictures of my DVD's and uploaded them to wikipedia. I have five pictures that I did with my camera still on wikipedia on articles. Up until my block, I been upset for quite sometime. I was upset that I had to resize the transformers DVD photos and someone else did it and got his word so I put them up for deletion because I did not like the size, I thought the size were not like DVD covers, Then I put LTGC Vol. 4 up for deletion, because DarkFalls changed my picture and put in another picture on that page and got rid on mine. I did not want my two photos to go away, but I had no choice, DarkFalls already took off one photo, I took off the other. Sometime in the night time I put in new article and uploaded low res photo from amazon.com and got upset when Ryulong deleted my articles. Before I finished my message with Ryulong, you blocked me and later DarkFalls deleted my low res photos. I been uploading since April 2006. I know you did the right thing with blocking me, I was out of control and was upset about this rule for quite sometime. Do you think I can still become an administrator or do you think I will never be an administrator now because of my first blocking. Thanks for unblocking me and I hope I can recover and not lose my temper again, because if I do and talk to people on wikipedia that is unacceptable I will be blocked again. Bye.--Stco23 21:53, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

You know, I tried to get input on what to do about them but A7 was the best I could come up with.

Tagging Sheila (singer) image for deletion
Hi there, Lucasbfr,
I'm curious why the image for Sheila (singer) would be tagged for deletion. It would seem to me to qualify for fair use under the guidelines provided by Wikipedia. (For an example, see the justification and text under La Belle Epoque (band).)
I'm new to Wikipedia, so I may be missing a point here. Perhaps the image simply needs to be tagged for fair use, as illustrative of an album cover, e.g., while a copyright-free image is sought.
What do you think?
Thanks for your insights.

List of Libraries in the London Borough of Waltham Forest
You deleted this article, after a discussion which I did not notice and am unable to find archived, stating that it was a "trivial list of 10 local libraries, not a single one of them with articles in WP". However, this article, which was linked from other pages, also had details of the local campaign to reverse the closure of one local library. At least, it did have this information when I added it in June; if it had been removed by the time of the deletion, this was vandalism. So I do not accept that this was simply a trivial list; and the details of St James Street Library were in this article itself, rather than elsewhere. I request that you undelete the article, and restore the links to other pages. Thanks. RolandR 14:12, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Request to userfy article
Can I ask you to please restore the article Bloomfield Cemetery, Bloomfield as a user page, in advance of recreation of the article. Regardless of the claimed precedent at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/North Church Cemetery, Hardyston, subsequent consensus is clear that such cemeteries are notable, nor would a single AfD establish a precedent that in any way justifies speedy deletion of any and all articles with a vaguely similar character. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of burials at Bayview Cemetery, Jersey City for an excellent counterexample, among many others. Alansohn 22:12, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Alizée Search
Hi Lucasbfr. I was just looking into Alizée Search. It had been prodded in May, and that had been contested by the article creator. I went to look at the history when you deleted it. The prod was overdue, so you were right to delete it. It looks like there is little reason for the article to remain, however I was curious to look into the history to see what had gone on in the past to see if there was anything that could be salvaged and maybe merged in to the Alizée article. Would you undelete it for half an hour to let me have a look. I'll let you know when I've finished. Regards SilkTork *SilkyTalk 14:16, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

MuggleNet.com's What Will Happen in Harry Potter 7
Thanks very much for pointing me in the direction of the "Conflict of Interest" information, but it isn't relevant in this case. I haven't got a conflict of interest, I'm just using the fact that I know more about the writing of this book than the writers of the article, in order to make the information on Wikipedia more accurate. The fact that I know more about the writing of the book because I wrote it isn't really the issue.
A conflict of interest only arises if I'm trying to suppress the truth or promote falsehood for my own gain. This isn't the case here: I'm simply correcting inaccuracies on a subject I know the most about.
Thanks for your time though. Bobby Skank 13:24, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey Lucas, I just wanted to let you know that we've been contacted by User:Danadearmond who you username blocked.

There seems to be some problems with her bio which she's been trying to correct, mainly she's concerned that the website which we have had listed is not really her website and is owned by some guy who took pictures of her when she was first starting out and I guess is now trying to make money selling pictures of her.

Help please
This may be a mistake on my part, but back in what I believe was July I was blocked indefinitely for vandalism by you. I tried using another account to edit properly until I noticed that the IP address was blocked. From there that page was blocked for multiple accounts. Since the IP address was unblocked I have done the work that I know I enjoy to do and more. I was curious on if I could get one of the pages unblocked for use or will I get blocked for another account in use. I don't know, but I hope I can. When using my first account I did not know how serious people were for this site. Now I do and I'm actually hoping to one day become an administrator myself.

- I was blocked as A31lover by you and soon after by Stephen as Siolent323. Stephen reviewed a request to be unblocked by me as Siolent323 which was exactly the same as the one I used as A31lover. I don't care much for the Siolent323 account, but I have been known as a31lover for some great time and I hate not being able to use the name. To let you know ahead of the check; one user warned me not to misuse tags on images and I took it as a joke. (As if there weren't any consequences) Well, I replied with nothing but insults towards him and minutes later I was blocked. Again, I hope from my history on this account may change things.

Toothiness
My entry was not "humerous" per se. It is undenyable that the two words are partial homophones, at least in UK English. The methods of used-car salesmen and TV evangelists do appeal to unsubstantiated emotive appeal and not to verifiable evidence.
The term "truthiness" was reintroduced by a satirist, which is a form of comedian. So possibly this word is fair game anyway. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.7.148.117 (talk) 10:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: Sunfitters Beach Shop
You did say if a few "reliable secondary sources citing this shop" could be found, you would reconsider your deletion of the page. Sunfitters has more than 1700 links in Google and is cited by the following reliable secondary sources:
- Practical Ecommerce Magazine did a recent profile of Sunfitters and its founder in its July print publication, and has made a copy available online at http://www.practicalecommerce.com/articles/559/Sunfitterscoms-Bill-Mirabito
- Sunfitters is a member of Shop.org, where it can be found listed with other members at http://www.shop.org/network/sponsormemlist.asp -- alongside the most notable online retail brands in the world. Shop.org is the division of the National Retail Federation.
- Sunfitters.com has been reviewed by the editors of The Open Directory Project (a.k.a., DMOZ) and is listed under http://www.dmoz.org/Shopping/Clothing/Swimwear -- which, in turn, feeds this link into Alexa.com
- Sunfitters has also been reviewed by the editors of Yahoo and listed under the Yahoo! Directory at http://dir.yahoo.com/Business_and_Economy/Shopping_and_Services/Apparel/Specialty/Beachwear/
- Sunfitters has been reviewed by the editors of The Best of the Web, and is listed at http://botw.org/top/Business/Shopping_and_Services/General_Merchandise
There's more. But I hope the list above is sufficient to warrant restoring the Sunfitters Beach Shop listing in Wikipedia, alongside other retailers of its kind.

bad pony productions
hello there, I am new to Wikipedia and notice that you didnt have a page for Bad Pony Productions, and that it has been deleted. I would like to add info to this page and wonder how this is possible.
Thanks!

User:AntiCommieMike a/k/a User:129.7.35.71
I've got a hater on my back, already reported to vandalism. He's decided I'm a "commie" because I'm an old friend of democratic Socialist mayor Frank P. Zeidler, and is reverting my edits "on principle" because I ("commiemike" according to his edits) am a "moron" and a commie. This is a very personalized form of edit war, and you just reverted one of his POV-pushing edits yourself. Is there anything you can do here? --Orange Mike 15:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Barn Owl Restaurant Oldham
I believe the page should remain a sit may end up being the only reference to the Barn Owl Restaurant should the LSC decide it should be shut down. It is included in Wikipedia as I believe that the students need easy access to information regarding the proposed shutdown, and whatr better placew to achieve this than in Wikipedia. Also the restaurant remains in the news as a topic close to the hearts of many Oldhamers including ex-pats.
I intend to create links to relevant news items if the item remains.
Please re-consider deletion.
Thank you

deleting pictures
hi
i would like to know what the reason is for your deletion of 2 pictures i uploaded last night?
first of all, the supersweet screen grab. a friend of mine works for supersweet magazine and i was trying to contribute to the explanation of their new site by having a picture to accompany it. what is wrong with that? i have their permission to do it.
and the second picture is the picture of nick jago. who's a friend of mine too and i have stumbled upon his page and was just trying to help by having a photograph to go with his page. choltida is a friend of mine and she took this photograph and has given me permission to use it too.
if there's good reasons for this, i wouldn't mind at all. it's not helping to promote friends' work. it's just that i thought seeing their stuff that's already on there and i'd just like to help and contribute and make things look a little better so other people can know what they are better visually.

Hi... regarding this [28] (I agree with the block, aside from the CU considerations, the userid is a vandal) and the unblock decline), in future it may be better to just point to WP:RFCU or m:checkuser because technically, it's not a way to prove anything, only to increase our confidence that there is or isn't a relationship.

Lasileuka
Hello! You speedily deleted the article Lasileuka that I was working on. I realize some articles without substance need be deleted, but may I ask that you please at least search for a movie on IMDb before you speedily delete an article about it. If you still see the need for deletion of a IMDb listed (and award winning) movie please take it to WP:AfD. Another way might be using the Template:Prod and giving the main contributor a heads up. As a courtesy. Some people put a great amout of time into editing and don't appreciate seeing the work deleted without the least concern. --Bensin (talk) 23:29, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

- OK. I think the award alone make it a notable enough film from Finland. I am aware that admins mean well when they delete articles, but personally I believe that speedily deletion can be reserved for harmful information and outright spam. I think many editors appreciate the use of the template I mentioned above. That gives them a fair chance to improve the article enough before a final decision is made. Please have a look at the article and make any improvements you see fit :-) --Bensin (talk) 23:51, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar | |
| I was just checking out unblock-en-l, after my too-long absence, and I saw that things look to have been a bit of a ghost-town, over there, recently. I've seen you several times, over the past few days, always bringing a positive and productive presence, at AN/I, on IRC, vandalism patrolling, and you're even doing a bangup job holding together unblock-en-l all by your lonesome self, for a while. You've contributed a lot to the community, in the many months I've been happy to see you around, and I hope you continue this tradition of excellence in the future. This classic barnstar is the least I can offer. Thank you. – Luna Santin (talk) 12:03, 20 November 2007 (UTC) |

Cleanup thanks, delete wars on William Herbert Wallace?
Thanks for cleaning up the blanking of my userpage. There seems to be a low-intensity deletion war happening on William Herbert Wallace, originating with what is probably one user on BT Internet (netname=BT-CENTRAL-PLUS, descr="IP pools"). It's been happening for the past few months, and beyond some userpage deletions and personal attacks, there's been no real feedback from the person or persons involved. Is there anything that can be done about this other than a) laughing and ignoring it, b) moaning about it on the dynamic IP's talk page, to no effect?

User:2005
I made an edit to a talk page where in response to a request I tried to remove a single half finished line I mistakenly left in a talk page. The database was lagging 51 seconds at the time and somehow other comments were removed according to the edit history. I have no explaination for that, but it was not my intent. However, to block a user with 10,000+ edits without asking ANY question or warning is quite an inappropriate action for an administrator. Aside from vandalism and BLP issues, talk comments of course should not be removed, and in a few years and thousands of edits I never done this prior to this mistake, so a block like this is extremely inappropriate. I assume this inappropriate (and frankly not nice) action was done in part because of the sloppy action of another admin who didn't pay attention to what he was doing and warned me about removing tags from a page, which I did not actually do. I reverted another editor's "ignore all rules" merge that had zero support, and direct opposition. Perhaps I didn't do the reversion right, but it is PLAINLY obvious to anyone who would be bothered to look at the edit history what my intent was. This was sloppy work on that admin's part. And while the edit history does appear to show I removed talk comments, putting a block on an editor who has top 5% most good faith edits in the encyclopedia, and literally zero history of anything simlar, can never be jusrified. I asked the blocking admin to unblock account immediately, and suggested he be more careful in the future to make comments to longstanding editors before taking such out of left field action. I have zillion edits in the Wikipedia. I contribute extensively to policy and guideline page discussions, and always follow them (though again it does show I removed talk comments, but that was either a software glitch or a mistake on my part). A block in this case has no possible justification. I would hope you would remove the block if you see this message before the orginal blocker sees his. There is much spam in the card games/gambling already building up that I ahve to deal with already... :) 68.166.135.238 (talk) 12:06, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Your help needed
Hello Lcasbfr,
My film festival information has been deleted once again. The speedy deletion was based on "blatant advertising, used only to promote someone or something"
The problem I have is that all film festival in the United States have a Wikipedia description of their film festival. We are just trying to populate the Wikipedia Encyclopedia with our information.
SouthSide Film Festival is in our State and they have a simple page about their festival.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SouthSide_Film_Festival
Why do you keep deleting our simple description of the Haydenfilms Film Festival?
Please respond with the steps that we need to take to participate in Wikipedia as all of the other worldwide film festivals that you currently have descriptions on.
How do we become a part of the below listing?

User talk:NSLE/w/index.php
Just FYI there is a particularly insipid vandal/zombie program called XRumer which is trying to use Wikipedia for search engine optimization. It creates talk pages (never mainspace pages as it is always IPs) ending in /index.php or / with some nonsense on them, then adds a link a few hours later. If you should see a page matching this design, you should delete it and list it at WP:PTX, and unless the IP creating it has made useful edits, block it indefinitely.

Either you or your bot just blocked an IP for only 3 hours that has a long history of only vandalism after multiple final warnings.

Also, there really isn't a problem with getting a school IP banned, as if people want to edit they can just sign up for a new user account. Mr Which??? 20:30, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Defender 911
Would it be appropriate for a third party--myself--to open an ArbCom case in this? If you're right and there was nothing particularly egregious in the deleted contribs, it may be time to punt to them at this stage. Blueboy96 21:58, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

RE: the flaying of Ekajati
Thank you very much for your message on my 'chittychat' page informing me as to why the information I had posted was removed. It confuzzled me greatly that I could not find it to repair my oversight and provide the correct code for investigation. I feel vindicated that my intuition of the sock-puppet ahamkara of the Mindstream of Ekajati has again been identified and flayed.

User:Lucasbfr/NewMessageHeader
Sorry, I've had to put in <includeonly> tags on this page since it was putting itself in CAT:CSD. This is just a temporary fix; you might want to tidy it up later on. Tra (Talk) 12:41, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
- I suppose it must have been a caching problem. The code you wrote should have worked but didn't, despite me making a null edit on the page. I think when you changed User:Lucasbfr/Header, that must have managed to clear the cache and fix the problem. Tra (Talk) 16:47, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
Replay Baseball
Replay Baseball has been speedied in the time it took for you to tell me that it couldn't be done. The tag I put was for general notability, which means the {{db-notability}} tag should be edited to reflect general A7, as opposed to the {{db-bio}} tag which is specifically for people. Somehow it got modified recently. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 16:53, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
You're Funny!
I like how you wrote "Hi, mom" and that you don't expect anyone to say hi. But, here I am so: HI! And Happy Holidays. --Daniella95 (talk) 20:18, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
Ummm..
I hope you don't think that I'm your mom because I'm not! By the way, I'm glad that I made your day! :D --Daniella95 (talk) 21:06, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
Range block
Hello,
I just wanted to inform you that I've unblocked 59.93.0.0/16, which was originally CSCWEM's block. I can't find any discussion of it anywhere, and we were approached by another user on IRC. If you feel that it needs to be reblocked, please feel free to do so. I have posted on CSCWEM's talk page and WP:AN as well. Thanks! kmccoy (talk) 10:25, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
A new flavor of SALT
Hello, I'm dropping you a note because you are listed on Wikipedia:Protected titles/Specific Admin as an admin that is maintaining a personal SALT page. Recent software updates now allow deleted pages to be protected just like other pages. Please consider migrating any pages on your personal list to normal protections, and clearing them off of your list. There still may be situations where a personal list may be the best way to handle a page though. Thank you, — xaosflux Talk 02:50, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

My Edits?
Please explain why you left a message on my talk page about making edits? Your message was more vague than the unknown soldier's identity. JoshHuzzuh Talk 17:09, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- Oh right, sorry. I was trying to prevent the redirect from going to Al Qaeda and take it to the edit page instead. I then fixed it by reverting it myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JoshHuzzuh (talk • contribs) 17:18, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Repeated RFCU fishing expeditions arising from Waterboarding
What you've probably got there is a university professor who assigned this article as some sort of class project. That would explain the shared IP address (for a few editors), the editor who chose the name "PennState21," and Shibumi2's unexplained departure from his usual focus on Japanese Navy articles. Thanks for your obedience to WP:AGF and WP:BITE, by the way. Neutral Good (talk) 20:55, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I encourage you to discuss this in greater detail with Alison. I cannot believe that Shibumi2 was directly involved in sock puppetry. Maybe the correct explanation is that he innocently shares an IP address with PennState21 or Harry Lives (or both), they saw evidence of him editing Talk:Waterboarding, and they decided to get involved. This isn't just about a shared IP address. This is about editing pattern. Shibumi2 has been here for a year and never had a problem until the past five days.

Bonsoir,
Avez-vous eu des réactions sur l'effacement de la page de Li Ang (jeu de go) ?

Li Ang - deletion of page
Dear Sir,
As requested, here is the deletion track:
12:21, 11 September 2007 Lucasbfr (Talk | contribs) deleted "Li Ang (Go)" (Expired PROD, concern was: Article is not notable. Though Li Ang plays Go professionally and has written several books, he has not done anything especially noteworthy within the Go world. That he links to this page within his KGS profile and)
Have you had any comments on it so far?
--85.3.214.118 (talk) 01:35, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- I restored the page, in accordance to our proposed deletion process. Proposed deletion is a simplified deletion process where a notice is put at the top of the article, if nobody removes the notice or objects to the deletion, the page is deleted. Since I'm taking your comments as an objection, I restored the page. My personal opinion is that the deletion reason is plausible (the article is orphaned). I haven't restored the picture, for it is not in accordance with our policies. -- lucasbfr ho ho ho 07:01, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
