[edit] Image deletion

[edit] Websites

Okay, thanks. BTW, can you help me with Slipknot's 4th album's page? Some asshole nominated it for deletion. Dark Executioner (talk) 23:42, 28 November 2007 (UTC)Dark Executioner

M.F.K.R. is not counted as part of their official discography, I believe, because the lineup of the band was totally different at that time. The one they're making now is their 4th. Dark Executioner (talk) 17:44, 29 November 2007 (UTC)Dark Executioner

We could redirect the page to 5th studio album if that's completely neccisary. Dark Executioner (talk) 17:45, 29 November 2007 (UTC)Dark Executioner

[edit] Re: Gorgoroth

No problem; but I'll be re-adding most of it soon - I know it happened, I just need to find a reliable source first and see how much of it is true! :P ≈ The Haunted Angel Review Me! 19:27, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:CatsRugbyClubLogo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:CatsRugbyClubLogo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 20:18, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey, Mentor

Stormie my old friend, I want to share with you that the government of Puerto Rico has bestowed upon me the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a civilian. The Puerto Rican Senate has recognized me as one of their greatest military historians and have honored me because of my worl in Wikipedia. Check it out here:Press Releases. Not bad for a guy that started off knid of rough, right? Tony the Marine 04:17, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

No harm done. Thanks for the reply. —Moondyne 22:30, 4 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Kel'Thuzad

A tag has been placed on Kel'Thuzad, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

[edit] Thanks for the help on Alan Keyes

Thanks for the help on Alan Keyes, Stormie. I want to keep improving the article, but I don't have the time I'd like to spend on it. Keep up the good edits! --Jdcaust (talk) 17:11, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re - G11 Speedy Delete of Kel'Thuzad soft redirect

I tagged this because it seemed to me it's sole function would be to drive traffic to an external site. If I was wrong or over hasty then naturally I apologise. I just had a look at the deletion logs and it seems this article has already failed an AfD - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kel'Thuzad.--Boreas 18:46, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Filmcow

Charlie has been mentioned in a number of articles, as well as Jason Steele. If someone who has a series of famous videos can't have a wiki article about their company, then I ask that you delete everything that has to do with Youtube users (Smosh, Brookers, Etc Etc) Fairs Fair, anywho. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Livebrick (talkcontribs) 17:19, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TomTom

You said "by drawing attention to the article with your AfD nomination you certainly caused people to improve it. It was a classic "no sources except the company's website" mess three days ago, it's much better now." My aspirations were higher (to convince editors that Wikipedia, being an encyclopedia, should not also become a business directory) but for now I’ll take the improvement in the TomTom article. I have to re-plan my business directory attack. Cheers. -- Iterator12n Talk 22:08, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wuice

Yep, thats what I was looking for. Thank you so much Stormie! --VenomSnake (talk) 16:54, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nordlys (album)

Hello,

Thanks for the tip. I did notice that tendency. I added a ref as soon as I could find it. Cheers! Óðinn (talk) 16:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I just have to ask...

What kind of things does a goth DJ play? --130.232.134.69 (talk) 07:16, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Never in my life have I listened to goth music, but if I wasn't interested in almost everything (it's a skill) I wouldn't be here, either with my usual account or logged out so that I won't get into any editing disputes and can get some schoolwork done. I'll start gathering these to find out what they're like. Thanks. --130.232.134.69 (talk) 06:31, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Original 21

Ayo wtf...why did you delete my image on Original 21...????The-real-zeus (talk) 21:07, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sputnikmusic (2nd nomination)

There's a difference between removing a link and removing content [1][2]. Please only remove wlinks, on pages that actually link to Sputnikmusic, rather than removing the entire entry. Dihydrogen Monoxide (Review) 02:53, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Aah, OK...in general I would agree with you, however check out Wikipedia:ALBUMS#Non-professional_reviews - current consensus is in favour of using staff reviews on that site. That said, the reviews I noted above were not staff (they were by a renowned review though, which opens up another can of worms), so I'll revert myself. But yeah, I suggest this be done by hand for the "staff review" situation. Dihydrogen Monoxide (Review) 03:03, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
LOL, got your message when I saved this page. Do you mind if I revert this edit then? Dihydrogen Monoxide (Review) 03:04, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Sounds good. Dihydrogen Monoxide (Review) 03:05, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Harry Potter Alliance

An wiki article you deleted November 3rd about this group is now heavily praised by J.K. Rowling in Time Magazine and was awarded a fan site award on her website.

When Time Magazine asked about the Harry Potter Alliance, Rowling said, "It's incredible, it's humbling, and it's uplifting to see people going out there and doing that in the name of your character. What did my books preach against throughout? Bigotry, violence, struggles for power, no matter what. All of these things are happening in Darfur. So they really couldn't have chosen a better cause." http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/personoftheyear/article/1,28804,1690753_1695388_1695436,00.html Time Magazine Person of the Year] Rowling awarded the Harry Potter Alliance a Fan Site Award in December 2007.

Since it is referenced in the mass media, can we restore the article or do you still object? Libertycookies (talk) 13:27, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nintendo DS Lite vs Sony PSP

A3 explicitly states that the article must consist "only of external links, category tags and "see also" sections, a rephrasing of the title, attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title, chat-like comments, and/or images." It had actual content, listing the features of both systems; it did not try to repeat the title; it did not try to contact the creator of the DS or teh PSP; it was not a chat log; and it did not have any images at all. I request that this article be undeleted so it can go through PROD and/or AFD. hbdragon88 (talk) 03:22, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

The funny thing is that before I became an admin, I used to advocate this as well, a looser definition of CSD to get clearly not encyclopdic articles out of the way, and now I'm suddenly this process wonk to do everything by the book.
The first thing that came to mind when seeing such an article was that comparsions can be valid, as evidenced by the Comparison of the AK-47 and M16 article.
I wouldn't have pushed it to simply stop halfway, so yes, I will ask for an undeletion. hbdragon88 (talk) 22:50, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding a comment you made at TFD

I found it very offensive when you said "This is virtually a G4 speedy candidate, and just more disruption from User:Pixelface, who continues to demonstrate that he has no interest in creating an encyclopedia and endless interest in "beating the dust which has blown over the bloody smear where the dead horse once lay", to quote a recent AN/I thread." Could you explain that to me? Could you explain to me how {{recent book}} is a recreation of deleted material? I don't appreciate you saying I created the {{recent book}} template for disruption and I don't appreciate you saying I have no interest in creating an encyclopedia. Have I said something that has offended you? Why would you be so incivil towards me? And what does that AN/I thread have to do with anything? --Pixelface (talk) 05:30, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
