User talk:NawlinWiki/Archive 8

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hey NawlinWiki, you have never deleted any of my contributions, but I can see you are an example of how absolute impotence corrupts absolutely. Wikipedia is supposed to be for the people, but you and other little tin gods have set yourselves up as gatekeepers for information you have no business tinkering with. You deleted an article of great importance to a professional field I am associated with, and I suspect you did it just because you could since it was so esoteric I'm positive you didn't understand what you destroyed. You are one of the reasons we information professionals are starting to eschew Wikipedia as a valid resource. Sleep well and know you are helping to wreck something that started with a good intention.

Please add all comments below the line. Why did you delete Flavorpill? My explanation that never got a chance to surface: Flavorpill has been pioneering the online events space since 2001. Long before Upcoming.org, Time Out or any of the others. The network has taken on the duties of publishing 11 different web properties covering Fashion, Current Events, Books, Music and Art. Flavorpill has received praise from several highly regarded publishers including The New York Times, CNN, CNET, USA Today, Wired and Business Week.

Flavorpill writes all original content and has every right to have a wiki page describing its history, culture and business practices.

An entry in Wikipedia would not serve to further business goals, rather make more information about the company and its history available.

I will gladly alter the content to be less congratulatory and meet the specifications of the wiki community, but to be deleted on the grounds that it is a business and not relevant is something I do not understand.


Why did you delete my ryan ogrady articale i worked hard on it

Let me ask you something: Has it ever hit you: Wow, I spend my time editing wikipedia.

Seriously, do you have a life?

[edit] WNJL.com Radio

May I ask who you think you are to deem our internet radio station as "nonnotable"? As stated in the Wikipedia you deleted (which, BY THE WAY, was up for several months and many of your colleagues saw ZERO issue with it), it was a top 50 station on Shoutcast at one time, is listed in all major search engines, and has a history as an FM radio station and an FCC visit, which I think would certainly contribute some interest to Wiki readers. Maybe you need to tone down your lofty duties as Wiki admin, LOL, and let things be once in a while.

[edit] What the hell?

My anti-american american article was still in progress. I demand it is brought back.

Perhaps it's neutral in MY point of you, you are just pro-american scum. Therefore, YOU are the bi-assed one.

[edit] Bay 101

Bay 101 is as notable a subject as any of the other casinos in the "Casinos in California" category. As I noted in the stub, it hosts an anual stop on the World Poker Tour, which places it in a particularly noteworthy group in poker circles.

[edit] Come On

Please don't delete the article about Don McCloskey. I just started working on it and i didn't get a chance to finish any information

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for telling my mistake in Kyria and I'll rebuild it again in a better format.

[edit] why did you delete the Hadouken! band wiki?

they are a legitimate band, and i can't see any reason why the article should A) be deleted and B) all further editing blocked? please can you fill me in on why this state of affairs continues?

[edit] I believe you deleted my article and I don't understand why

The article that was posted on Polipsy-v on the 14th of Feb., 2007 was an actual post about a real disease that I have been diagnosed with. I ask that you please reconsider un deleting it, if possible. I will post more about it as i learn more about it, but unfortunately that is all that I know about it. Saying that it isn't valid or doesn't present any actual content is hurtful. The reason for posting it is because it is valid and I want others to be aware of it. Thank you for your time.

[edit] Article Deletion

Why did you delete Wall Square? The deletion log is found in the following link http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=wall+square . Being one of the people mentioned in the article, it is very important to me that this article remain posted.

Please make 2 edits for me (these pages are protected so I can't edit them myself):

  1. Replace Wikipedia:Protected titles/Spam pages with nonsense titles with the copy found on the talk page (just copy and paste it ;-)
  2. In Template:Protected title, change

[edit] Hans beekman/User_talk:Jeroenhaan

Considering a speedy had already been placed on the page in question, perhaps adding your notice on the user page was excessive, especially since it might be considered vanity, or unsorced, but adding it was not "vandalism."-- Just noticed while checking new pages for the 1st time, & I'm tying to learn the criteria people use.DGG 23:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bobotie

Hi there - I noticed you deleted this article yesterday as it had a speedy notice. However, it actually had a long and useful history as an article but had then been maliciously blanked and then given a speedy tag by an anon user.

[edit] Camel case redirects

I was wondering if you'd be willing to undelete JRRTolkieN and TurkeY that you speedy deleted recently, partially because they don't fit a CSD criteria, and partially because they're historic. It's probably my fault for not tagging them with {{R from CamelCase}}. However, if you look at their earliest versions, you see that both contain versions that go back to March 2001, and that they contained the very first versions of text for their respective articles. (eg. J. R. R. Tolkien only has history back to Dec 2001, and Turkey only has history back to September 2001, so one could even say it's a GFDL issue). See also Wikipedia:CamelCase and Wikipedia and m:MediaWiki history for more information on why the pages were originally created this way. --Interiot 17:18, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! A fair bit of our history has been deleted this way because it's not always obvious that these are useful to keep (and thus the need for http://nostalgia.wikipedia.org/). Anyway, thanks for the help. --Interiot 17:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article deletion

A few days ago you deleted an article about a band from Adelaide, South Australia called The Hoodoo Voodoo Dolls. you claimed that it was in breach of the notabillity guidelines for wikipedia. However as the band have had a review of their recent EP release (verifiable published information from a completely individual source). Also they are also they have risen to be the only representative of their genre in Adelaide. Seeing as Adelaide is the 5th largest city in the country this is a notable achievement. This effort, combined with the fully independent and verifiable, non-trivial published work about them, surely must prove their notability. I will be reposting this page later today and i will be listing the URL of the review they received as a source.

The issue isnt that they are in a big city it is that they are the only band representing their style in a city of over 1 million people. i quote from the wikipedia guidelines:

"a musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, hip hop crew, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria:

7.Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city"

As the only band representing this genre in such a large city they are clearly the most prominent representative. Also this style has its own extensive wikipedia page, on which this band is listed as a prominent band for this style. therefore neither the prominence of the style nor the prominence of teh band within that style can be debated.

i am also in the process of restoring the article, including adding a link to Delusions of Adequacy.net

If you would follow wikipedia procedures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:H2231 has continously blanked pages as he creats his page. This is about notability. The school he is making a page for is a private school. He gains by advertising his school on wikipedia. Isn't wikipedia against advertising? LexiLynn 18:42, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Not even a welcome on my page? aw cmon. No seriously though, this is a private school, this is spam they use to be search engine spidered. Just like a young actress who hasn't had roles yet and makes a wikipedia page, these people only sole intention is to use wikipedia to get into search engines. LexiLynn 18:45, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

No, I just have a photographic memory. Please remember Nuetral Point of View. Still no welcome to my page, even from an admin ? LexiLynn 18:51, 6 February 2007 (UTC)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelby_Young are you saying the role listings make this person notable? This was started as a vanity page. It meets all the requirements of Speedy Deletion. Reinstating speedy deletion, there is no need for AFd according to Wikipedia. For comments (As you should already know) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Shelby_YoungLexiLynn 18:55, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Does this page http://alexisstodghill.com/resume.html assert nobility too? If so, make a page for it. There are THOUSANDS of actresses that have had small roles in films and television shows that are deleted speedily daily from wikipedia. A listing of roles does NOT conostitute nobility. LexiLynn 19:03, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

It has nothing to do with speedy deletions, it has to do with you just don't agree so your going to try and use your Administrator ability to show your point. Don't get mad, just take breaths and come back later. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Resolving_disputes

[edit] Page creation help

Would like to make a page then about Alexis Stodghill. Actress with multiple credits, she has been listed on wikipedia before, but "rabid" fans of an opposing actress cluttered and spammed her page so that it was removed. Final reason why? SPEEDY DELETION by an "opposing rabid" admin, even after real fans added the bio tag to the top of the page, in which you cannot speedy delete pages, they did anyway, Vanity page was used because they said her roles while notable didn't belong on wikipedia. Now I'd argue that in the case of Shelby Young who has had multiple roles in student films NEVER released to the public, and 2 films in which she was background (An extra) clearly, and a pilot for a tv show (Wikipedia is not a Cyrstal Ball), if you believe those are notable, then you won't have a problem writing up an article about this girl http://www.alexisstodghill.com right? LexiLynn 19:17, 6 February 2007 (UTC)


POINT does not apply, I just want to make it clear that after I create it, when it's speedily deleted because of "Lack of Nobility" and or vanity (though she has more notable and confirmed roles then the actress above" that you won't feel bad coming to the article's defense.

LexiLynn 19:23, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Will create it, maybe you can drive by later and protect it for a bit. LexiLynn 19:27, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

User Lexilynn is not correct when saying "had multiple roles in student films NEVER released to the public, and 2 films in which she was background (An extra) clearly, and a pilot for a tv show (Wikipedia is not a Cyrstal Ball)".

Shelby Young has guest starred/co-starred on three popular television shows (Freddie, Ghost Whisperer, and Everybody Hates Chris) and one that is now off the air but had previously been on Showtime (Going to California). Along with two films (not backround work) that were BOTH released, quite recently actually. Waltzing Anna had a limited release in theatres across the nation and The Naked Brothers Band was recently released as a made for TV movie on Nickelodean. Granted the roles were small, especially in The Naked Brothers Band but they were definately not backround. Also, yes, she did do the Lazytown pilot and has also done voice work for many major motion pictures (IMDB keeps adding voice work for her and then it gets deleted, no idea why).

Now, Ms. Stodgehill has not done any notable work. So, I'm curious as to why Ms. Young's page, along with another young actress I'm familiar with Katelyn Pippy's page, were tagged for Speedy Deletion by the same user who is going to be making a page/has made a page for a Ms. Stodgehill, who's work I've never heard of (not mentioned on IMDB either, which would mean all work is non-union). Just curious, thank you for your time.

[edit] JewsDidWTC

That page described why the website is notable. Did you see the video? All the pictures in that CNN video were cribbed from jewsdidwtc.com, which suddenly makes jewsdidwtc.com notable.

Not that I support the conclusion that jews are responsible for the September 11th attacks- I share CNN's revulsion of that proposition. But CNN reported that some people believe that jews are responsible, and cited that web site and many pictures from it to make its case.

(contitued) The deletion review was about the GNAA article... this is about the web site that CNN featured. Arguably, CNN didn't mention the GNAA directly, but they did directly mention jewsdidwtc.com and showed lots of images from that web site. Thus making jewsdidwtc.com notable, if not necessarily the people behind it.

[edit] Leigh Whannell

I'm kind of confused still about how to communicate on Wikipedia. I know I did some faulty updates on Whannell's page but it should be fixed now, I cleaned up the bio, it was pretty out of date and poorly phrased. I hope I didn't violate any rules by updating it because it "reverted" and I got a message. And I just failed to sign this post, now I've signed it. Droidguy1119 20:54, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Etherealization (cult)

I created the article in the first place because on the Etherealization page about R. Buckmister Fuller there was a line at the top saying "For the UFO cult, see Etherealization (cult" and the wikilink was red. I know that generally means that the article is requested, so I did some research and created it because I thought that it was wanted. There are indeed many articles on Wikipedia about cults, and a whole very long list of them. But if a cult has to have had a mass suicide to be deemed notable, then I understand.

Why did you delete the article? The article deleted was very different from the one which was nominated for deletion.

This was written as an informative article to fill people in about a rapidly growing product, not at all as a form of advertising as you imply.

[edit] A question on policy

Hey, I'm back from a long wikibreak, and I'm slogging into a battle over at the Peter Lamborn Wilson article. I need to know what (if any) is Wikipedia's policy when it comes to pseudonyms---specifically, there is a lot of criticism of Wilson based on writings published under the pseudonym "Hakim Bey". My argument is that it has never been proven that all of the writings published under that pseudonym were actually written by PLW. Given that this is an article about a living person, there needs to be verification of the writings and the criticism that is made of said writings. I need to know the policy to back up my argument. Any assistance you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ---Charles 17:27, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't understand or appreciate being accused of vandalism. I am NOT trying to advertise on Wikipedia. I am simply adding an additional source for my fans to locate information about my film material.

[edit] User:Tylerbuy

Hi - can you kill this article LoveSac ASAP please? It's an attack page on a competitor's product, by the same user as the Comfy Sacks article. I've CSD G10'd it EliminatorJR Talk 00:38, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah - I didn't check the edit history and thought Tylerbuy had actually created the article rather than vandalising it. Good call EliminatorJR Talk 00:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bobby McKee

Re:bad faith - quick delete - Can I ask why you put I acted in bad faith in the edit history? Why have you not assumed good faith? Also, why is a serious libel being left on the McKee page history? I have no idea why this is bad faith given I have started the majority of biographies for politicians for McKee's party the DUP. Weggie 00:25, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Indefinitely blocking IP addresses

Hello NawlinWiki. When indefinitely blocking IP addresses, as you did 131.107.64.93, please remember to place {{indefblockedip}} on the user or user talk page for tracking purposes. Please also see recommendations against indefinitely blocking IP addresses. Thank you. :) —{admin} Pathoschild 07:49:47, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the note on IP blocks. The indef blocks that I gave were for spambots that were creating fake talk pages solely to post spam links. These accounts never have any legitimate edits, and some resumed spamming after prior temporary blocks. What kind of block do you think they should be given? NawlinWiki 13:27, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Oddly, 131.107.0.0/16 belongs to Microsoft Corporation. It might have been a compromised proxy. If it spams repeatedly, I would suggest blocking for a few weeks or months; particularly with a company like Microsoft, that should be more than long enough to correct any compromise. It did have some legitimate edits just a few days before you blocked it. —{admin} Pathoschild 18:27:26, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shaftism and the Artist Baron Barrymore Halpenny

I was very surprised to see the article stub on Shaftism had been removed, but then I have to admit I had not put much effort into the article.

I’m not angry, except with myself for not doing a better entry, but I do feel you should review your deletion, it is a genuine art form that I and many others have seen.

It is not for any gain that I have put this up nor do I personally know the artist. I just like art and trying to give proper recognition to true artists. Sadly many are overlooked.

I'm not always clear how Wikipedia works, so any help regarding editing is much appreciated. By all means edit my work and add to it.

[edit] WHY????

Why are you so mean to people? They just want to have fun.

[edit] RE:WHY???

Yeah thats fine. Sorry for that outburst it was unprofessional and I feel terrible about it. And sorry for the article itself, it is juvenile to keep reposting an unrelevant article to wikipedia and fell bad about that as well. I do admire your status on wikipedia as I am an avid supporter for wikipedia and the causes of it. If I knew how to nominate or give those barn awards I would most definently give you one.Dflav1138 00:54, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 66.204.14.7

I was wondering, as this IP address is a frequent vandal to Wikipedia, is there a way (as mentioned in the template at the top of there talk page here) to report this vandalism to the school district in which it belongs, and deal with the problem? Or is this tag just an identification of location? I have been wondering the effectiveness of this method for a while (wondering how effective it is) and I figured this would be the scenario to use it with. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!--Vox Rationis 21:45, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Conservapedia

Hello. Conservapedia (currently a redirect for Eagle Forum) was deleted last December because it was not notable. However, I believe this has changed, and that it should be restored. I say it has changed because it now gets 200,000 Google hits (rather than seven when it was deleted); and it has been covered by several media outlets (Guardian, Mobuzz TV, Wired). Can you restore or unprotect it directly, or should I put it in for deletion review? --h2g2bob 10:53, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Alicia von Sobbe-Grimberg

Hello there and thank you for your message as to why you deleted the page I created on Alicia von Sobbe-Grimberg. I hadn't finished the article so will recreate it now and include all the notable/Wikipedia worthy information. Please don't delete it again, this woman is incredible and very well known in the fashion industry. Cheers, Viv.


[edit] Res Rei

My american friends wanred me about this, they were saying that you people at wikipedia would not allow an article of the holy one, Res Rei. It is most definitely NOT nonsense! For years we have been shunned for our beliefs, and I think it is truely unfair that we are not even accepted on the INTERNET, of all places! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Goggleboy1991 (talk • contribs) 12:20, February 28, 2007

I prodded it. I suppose if I'd read it more carefully, I'd have speedied. Regards, Flyguy649talkcontribs 17:27, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of D. Mikels

Thank you for demonstrating what an absolute joke this website is. Your post on my talk page about this author shows you did nothing more than take a cursory glance at the books by D. Mikels (which is a pen name, not the author's real name. . .there is no first name other than D.). Fact: This author has sold thousands of books. Fact: The sales rankings on Amazon are only in the millions for "Dawn"; had you bothered to check you will find the sales rankings of the other two fluctuate from as low as 2,000 to (currently) 500,000 for "The Reckoning." Fact: Mr. Mikels had a literary agent in New York; the relationship went south and Mr. Mikels elected to "self-publish" his books, but here's something in your Wiki editor sanctimony you fail to understand under your rabid bias against "self-publishing". . .out of 150,000 titles (royalty and self-published) only one-third will sell more than 100 copies, and Mr. Mikels's books have all exceeded that. Fact: Mr. Mikels's books have been reviewed in newspapers throughout the nation, including the Sunday Oklahoman, the Tulsa Tribune, and the Rocky Mountain News. Finally, you mentioned I was promoting this author's books; well, Einstein, look at the articles of other authors on your website: Are you honestly going to tell me books aren't being promoted there???

Anyways, thanks for nothing but showing what vindictive, narrow-minded elitists you are. I followed a suggestion to share info about D. Mikels on Wikipedia, but after this blueblood orgy I'm out of here.

[edit] Barnstar!

The Working Man's Barnstar
I hereby award you this Working Man's Barnstar for your work on removing thousands of inappropriate pages from Wikipedia. Thank you and keep up the good work! KFP (talk | contribs) 00:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


Is there a barnstar for appropriate ones deleted because NawlinWiki doesn't believe in checking before deciding something is a hoax? If so, might be nice to gift that one as well. In some admittedly odd-sounding cases, the refusal to take 10 secs to Google before deleting work which took substantially longer than that to create might even be understandable and forgiveable, if they at least had the moral strength to apologize for that mistake as publically as they are willing to brand someone a vandal.
