[edit] Route to Destiny

Hey,

Why was my new page deleted? This is my friggin favorite game! I even asked the game administrators to verify the information! So it did not contain any false information! If this is my welcome to Wikipedia land...

Okay, it was quite short, but I was going to add content!

Anyway, greetz, me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.11.185.56 (talk • contribs)

Hi. When you write an article, you should state why the topic is important. Your article begun with "it is a rather small game...", so you should put even more stress to show why it is notable to have its own article. I can restore it if you would like to rewrite it. Regards. --Tone 14:16, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay I'll try working on it later this evening, But please give me a few days (let's say 1 or 2) for me to finish it :p + I've lost the info so please put it back so I can change it.

Many thanks! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.11.178.94 (talk) 20:27, 5 January 2007 (UTC).

Ok, restored. And I suggest you sign in ;-) --Tone 21:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of Notable Anime by Year

I'd like to hear a little more of your reasoning behind deleting this article. To me, it feels like you're intentionally making things more roundabout and difficult overall by organizing things by categories. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.175.97.219 (talk) 21:36, 5 January 2007 (UTC).

The problem is the criteria of inclusion of an anime on the list. Why is it notable? What is even the criteria? Can you provide references? I guess nobody would oppose that for example Pokemon or Dragon Ball are notable but it quiclky comes to a more slippery terrain. Why not to include this anime if that one is on the list? You see, the consequence would soon be to put all the anime on the list and this is what WP is not, an indiscriminative collection of data. I hope it helps. --Tone 22:08, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your deletions

I am here to inquire about your recent mass deletions of images. While all of them should have been deleted, they were deleted very fast, reaching a max of about 19 images per minute! I was wondering how you achieved such a fast deletion rate by hand. Thank you. —Mets501 (talk) 02:57, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Quite easy. Frist, I open many windows in Firefox as tabs, then I check them and then I delete them in a row. Probably I got some practice already :) --Tone 07:44, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
OK, good, as long as there's no bot involved :-) —Mets501 (talk) 11:58, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Sure, I wouldn't use a bot for deletion without a prior approval of the community. But it might be useful to have one for other edits, I will read some things about it when I find some time. --Tone 12:29, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bill Britt

I am a new wikipedian. I was somewhat slow in adding content to the Bill Britt article and I find it has been deleted. Here are some reasons why this person is notable.

Bill Britt and Dexter Yager are two of the top most distributors in Amway/Quixtar. Britt has above 1 million people in his downline. Proper information about him concerns at least all these people.

He is currently serving as a Presidents Cabinet Representative on the IBOA International Board. http://www.iboai.com/IBOAI-PresidentsCabinet-BillBritt.asp

Britt is mentioned in the Forbes Magazine, December 9, 1991 http://www.amquix.info/forbes_december_9_1991.html

Britt was mentioned in nationally televised news documentary on the Dateline NBC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amway#_note-20

The Triangle Business Journal reports a scam involving him. http://triangle.bizjournals.com/triangle/stories/2003/08/11/story1.html

The Burlington Times-News reported about Britt's involvement in fradulent investment schemes, and about his impending separation with his wife. http://www.amquix.info/forbes_december_9_1991.html

A lawsuit involving him is mentioned in an article in "Time Out". http://www.rickross.com/reference/amway/amway9.html

A lawsuit involving him is mentioned in an article in "The Legal Intelligencer". http://www.amquix.info/aus/hanrahan.htm#articles

[edit] My Request for Adminship

Thanks for contributing to my RfA! Thank you for your support in my my RfA, which passed with a tally of 117/0/1. I hope that my conduct as an admin lives up to the somewhat flattering confidence the community has shown in me. Please don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page should you need anything or want to discuss something with me.--Nilfanion (talk) 23:00, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

You might be just the person I need- Indigenous Australians has just been repeatedly vandalised and with ? German - in there - wonder what you would do with the vandal? SatuSuro 15:23, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

For now, I have left a note on the vandal's page. If you see he continue to vandalize the article, let me kno wand I will block him. Regards. --Tone 15:25, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
OK - I've alerted another admin here in Perth - WA - its after midnight here :) so at least we are watching. Thank you for your help - it is appreciated! SatuSuro 15:28, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jeet Kune Do

Hi Tone,

I see you've reverted back edits by 70.128.117.245 on the Jeet Kune Do article. If you look he's real close to violating the Three Revert Rule. Any chance of you blocking him as he's really creating a lot of commotion and unnecessary grief? Thanks FrankWilliams 15:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Indeed. Well, since noone told him anything yet, I left him a notice for now. But if he continues, tell me and I will block him. Regards. --Tone 15:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Tone he just changed your edit and I reverted back. Do what you have to do. Thanks FrankWilliams 15:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Now I let him the notice about 3RR. The next violation results in a block. By the way, you can also remind the user next time yourself ;-) --Tone 15:57, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Tone user 70.128.117.245 still reverting the Jeet Kune Do articles after several more warnings. Please block this guy. BTW: He has also used the IP: 64.149.40.27 Thanks FrankWilliams 01:40, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

HELLO TONE, WE ARE TRYING TO CONTACT MR. FRANK WILLIAMS REGARDING SOME LIBELOUS STATMENTS HE HAS POSTED. COULD YOU SEND IT TO INFO@LEEJKD.COM OR TO OUR ATTORNEYS AT THE PATTON LAW OFFICE JON@JONPATTON.COM. MR. PATRICK IS AWARE OF THE SITUATION AND PREFERS WE TAKE IT OFFLINE BUT WE NEED HIS OR HIS LAWYERS CONTACT INFORMATION. THANK YOU. --WORLDJKD 20:26, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Tone, It appears that user 70.128.117.245 who you blocked is at it again as User:Martiallaws with the exact same edits. Please take appropriate action. Thanks FrankWilliams 16:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

I have protected the article now so that new users and anons are not able to edit it. I'll keep an eye on the article and I suggest you that you contact directly the user who is making disruptive edits and let him know that this is not a nice thing to do ;-) In any case, it's polite to warn him before he gets blocked :-) (I'll let him a notice now but next time you do it, ok?) --Tone 16:49, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AIV

Hi! Could you explain this edit: [1]? It seems you blocked another IP for 24 hours a few minutes before, but the IP your comment is under has not been blocked... --Tango 17:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Funny, probably it's because another admin blocked him at the same time. He's blocked now anyway. --Tone 17:15, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
He hadn't been blocked when I looked at the log. He wasn't blocked until 5 minutes after you left that message. Strange... You don't need to leave a comment when you've blocked a user, anyway, you can just remove them (or these days, leave it and a bot will remove them). --Tango 17:20, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Feel like deleting a couple pages?

Hi. You blocked User:Thwrebvebthwr for vandalism. Most of his vandalism has been reverted; but he uploaded a clearly-unfree image, Image:Patrick Swayze.jpg, with no fair-use rational which he used in his vandalism. He also created a userpage for a user that did not have one User:Dstumme. Those probably ought to be deleted. Thanks. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 21:04, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Indeed. Fixed. --Tone 21:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks again. :) ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 21:12, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your deletions to Image:Goatse.jpg and Image:Lemonparty.jpg

Thank you. God, that was scary; I don't think I can sleep tonight. Could you also please protect them from recreation (Such as adding {{deletedpage}} to them)? --AAA! (AAAA)

[edit] Erik Voeks article

Hello Tone: I spent a couple hours creating an Erik Voeks article which you deleted. This was my first attempt at creating an article, and I think an external link I posted in an effort to provide verifiable documentation may have been construed as "blatant advertising." I removed that link and have left nothing but internal wiki links. Now the article is locked. What's the problem?

edit: I also see how I might not have followed protocol be recreating an article which was deleted. Is there a way to get this article reinstated if it meets standards?

Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dukewisdom (talk • contribs) 16:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC).

Hi. First of all, you should a capitalised letter for the surname also :-) Sometimes it is hard to write an article that reads neutral, I know. Follow the link and try again, if there's any problem, ask me. Regards. --Tone 17:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


Yes, I was trying to capitalize the surname when I found the article deleted/locked. What link am I to follow? Thanks for your help.

The one in the title. Sorry, I forgot to put it there... Now I deleted the protected page so you should be able to edit it. --Tone 17:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Schaumburg High School

This page, which you recently edited on, is constantly getting vandalized by a rival school. Could you please put an edit lock on the page? Rohan 17:35, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi. The vandalism is not so heavy as you put it. In the log I don't see more than one vandalism per day in average. So I think the protection is not necessary since we try to avoid protecting the articles in general. For now, let just keep an eye on the article and if the situation aggravates, let me know and I will protect it. Regards. --Tone 22:12, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I need help, Tone.

Tone, you left me a message about not deleting Afd's. It was an accident - I was trying to edit my article, Evan Sackett. But since you're an administrator, maybe you can help. I am being attacked by multiple users on wikipedia. Most are requesting deletion of my article. I am working to improve it, cite information, and remove all spam. Please, give me time to fix it. I have worked very hard on this page and it means a lot to me.

I will aslo note that I am the creator of article: Evan Sackett, but I am NOT Sackett himself. Sackett is a local author who I feel deserves a place on Wikipedia. I have the username:Evan Sackett becasue I was trying to create the article. My name is David Johnson. Thanks

Yeah, sometimes it is hard to convince the other users that a person deserves an article. You see, there are thousands of vanity pages created every day and it takes time to deal with them all. I suggest you enter the deletion discussion (follow the link in the AfD notice) and present your arguments there. It will be the best thing to do. --Tone 22:58, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gordon Campbell vandal

I went ahead and reported him to WP:AIV. I think it is more of a vandal than a POV editor. :: Colin Keigher (Talk) 19:26, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey!

I edited my userpage at school, without logging in, and you reverted the edit. Please change it back Geohevy 01:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok, sorry. I couldn't have known that it was you, it could have been a vandal... Reverted now. Regards. --Tone 10:19, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I understand. I won;t do that again. Geohevy 22:23, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] JKD Again

Tone, I need you to either block the same guy we've had problems with before (he's got a new alias called Bruceleeman or protect the document somehow. Thanks FrankWilliams 13:58, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sock

User:ClericalError is a sockpuppet of User:GreenHydrogen27(who was blocked for 24 hours), and can be proven through the contributions page of each. I suggest that both of these users be blocked for more than 24 hours. Diez2 16:32, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion

Why was the article on Lowkey deleted? He is a popular underground rapper in the United States; there was no reason for deletion. He is more popular than the UK rapper of the same name, and his page remains up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.32.242.209 (talk) 20:55, 20 January 2007 (UTC).

Ok, restored. If he is more popular than the British rapper, you might want to correct the titles or create redirects. Tell me, if you need help with that. --Tone 21:46, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I actually could use some help editing it; I was trying to make the two a disambiguation, but could not figure out how to. Thanks a lot.

I fixed the article a bit and added a link from the other rapper and vice versa. I think it's ok now. --Tone 10:03, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Alright, thanks a lot for your help. One more thing I wanted to ask is about linking from one page to another. Lowkey is mentioned on Afroman's wiki page, and I made his name clickable for a link; but the UK artist is the one that comes up when clicked upon. Is there any way to fix that?

Sure. When you make hyperlinks, the syntaks goes like this: [[the page you want to link|what you see in the text]]. So you just correct all the links and it will work. --Tone 21:31, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

I have been accused of being a vandal on User:LUCPOL/Vandal:R9tgokunks due to past editing disputes with yourself, or other being involved in ways with yourself.

I've read the pages on this but still cannot follow the intructions satisfactorily. Could you explain how I do this? Paulcantrell2 21:46, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I am not sure what exactly you would like. The articles seem pretty ok to me. If you mean the rating within a wiki project, I guess the best thing is to contact someone from there. Sorry, I guess I am not very helpful this time... Regards. --Tone 17:16, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Frazer's Theory

why was frazer's Theory deleted. You may not realise but in Queensland australia this is a major discovery. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 59.100.45.126 (talk) 13:12, 26 February 2007 (UTC).

Hi. The original argumentation was: According to Google, there is a Frazer's Theory (to do with religion and morality), but this isn't it. Besides, if it was discovered the same day you posted the article, it might be a littel too fresh... Well, if you provide sufficient references, I see no problem in keeping the article, if you want, I can recreate it. Regards. --Tone 17:44, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Hvorfor slettet du "Bøgeri", når du ikke engang påberoper deg å ha kjennskap til språket det er skrevet i ?

Og hvorfor kaller du det SPAM ?

Det var ingen reklame for noe som helst her.

I guess you are complaining because of the deletion of the article. It was not even written in English and it contained very little text, apart from links. Try again with a longer article, and in English. Regards. --Tone 09:34, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Snakenet

Hi Tone,

I just saw you deleted the article about the internet radio station Snakenet. It was marked "a7" which I found out means "Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content". Just browsing a few entries listed on List_of_Internet_stations I really don't see why Snakenet is unremarkable compared to other articles still up. Would you reconsider your decision?

Cheers, Brack 19:55, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Money Magpie deletion

Hi Tone, you deleted a page I added called Money Magpie (there was a similar page called MoneyMagpie - the correct spelling - which is also gone, but I can't find it in the deletion log). Please can you explain why, and what I need to do to get it reposted? Thanks. Feisty12 22:31, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

The problem is that you created an article about a website that doesn't exist yet. So what I suggest you do is to wait until it launches and try to avoid phrases like written to reflect Jasmine's wity and down-to-earth approach to money advice, because this is not an encyclopedic tone. Regards, --Tone 08:26, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tone, the MoneyMagpie website is now up and running. Please can you reinstate the MoneyMagpie page (or the Money Magpie page) so I can make the tone changes you suggested? Thanks. Feisty12 10:36, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi again, is there any chance of reinstating the MoneyMagpie page, please? I would like to make it live again. Thanks Feisty12 16:01, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I have updated the page. If you have time (or are interested), please could you give it the once over and let me know if it could be improved in any way? Feisty12 16:29, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Movement for Justice and Development

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Movement for Justice and Development, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Plese reconsider your vote to merge Human rights in pre-Saddam Iraq

Hi Tone,

I've just put a lot of work into improving Human rights in pre-Saddam Iraq so that the article is not now anything like what it was when you voted. I think it may meet your objections to it, so please take another look and see what you think. I'm still not satisfied with the article, but it has roughly the proper scope and many more reliable sources. I think what I've done shows that there's too much material out there to merge this article with anything else. Significant gaps remain and some subjects should have footnotes from more sources, but I think the article is several steps toward what it should be. Best, Noroton 22:31, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Piran Bay

That article badly needs a map, or the reader who is not already intimately familiar with the geography of the Piran bay will have no concrete visual reference to latch on to. Furthermore, your stated reason for deleting the map which was already on the page sounds extremely stupid, since Croatia can point to generalized traditional principles of maritime border demarcation in support of its claim, while Slovenia has to appeal to special circumstances which it argues override generalized traditional principles of maritime border demarcation in this particular case to support its claim -- so the situation between the two countries is not absolutely symmetric. (And even if the situation between the two countries were absolutely symmetric, your "solution" of deleting without offering any practical alternative suggestions is hardly helpful.) AnonMoos 00:41, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm neither a Croatian nor a Slovenian, nor do I have Croatian or Slovenian connections or family ties. However, I'm afraid called your actions "stupid" because it's extremely inadvisable to throw away the only available freely-licensed map from an article which very very badly needs a map, just because you don't like the wording contained in one caption within the map -- especially since you didn't offer any alternative suggestions at the time. The point of Wikipedia is to collaboratively cooperate to improve things, not to delete everything which doesn't happen to satisfy your preferences 100%.
But I don't see any reason to have three maps, when the existing situation is pretty clearly covered with one map -- Yellow-colored captions label the areas whose territorial control is undisputed and uncontroversial, while Green-colored captions label the areas which Slovenia wants, and which would be covered by the Drnovšek-Račan agreement, but which Croatia doesn't currently recognize as belonging to Slovenia. If you have an alternative suggestion to offer for the caption "claimed by Slovenia", then by all means offer it, but I think it more or less adequately reflects the current reality, without really fully adopting the position of either side... AnonMoos 13:54, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
I'm afraid I don't really see any major problem -- the current map shows both the undisputed areas (yellow captions) and the areas which would be recognized as Slovenian if the agreement came into full force, which it hasn't yet (green captions). AnonMoos 01:07, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Then what is your concrete practical suggestion to change the caption "claimed by Slovenia" to? AnonMoos 10:25, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] problem

Pozdravljen

Imam nekaj vprašanj glede registracije in blokiranja ... Dva dni nazaj sem se hotela registrirati v slovensko wikipedijo, pa sem presenečena ugotovila, da je moj IP naslov blokiran. Menda zaradi vandalizma. Zanimam me, kako je to možno, ker nikoli še nisem prispevala k člankom v Wikipediji. V japonsko in angleško wikipedijo sem se vpisala brez problema. Zato tudi pišem preko angleške, kajti preko slovenske wikipedije ti nikakor nisem mogla pustiti sporočila (ali ni to malce čudno ... kako pa naj pridem v kontakt s kakšnim administratorjem če sem blokirana in je ravno to moj problem??).

Moj IP je 212.235.176.17. Prosila bi za pojasnilo, ker mi res ni jasno zakaj sem blokirana. Hvala.

Verjetno je prišlo do tega slučajno ob blokadi celega niza IP-jev, s katerih je prihajal vandalizem, pa je bil po nesreči tudi tvoj na seznamu. Včasih je enostavno treba blokirati npr. računalniško učilnico v osnovni šoli ali kaj podobnega. Sem odblokiral naslov, ki je bil najbliže tvojemu, poskusi še enkrat s prijavo, če ne bo šlo, mi pa sporoči. LP --Tone 09:04, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] zahvala

Hvala za odblokiranje. Sedaj sem se lahko registrirala.

[edit] Steamcast

I would like the text of the article for Steamcast I will publish it elsewhere seeing as it is not meeting your standards. Also it appears as though someone is stating that Streamcast is now a media server which it is not. Streamcast is a peer-to-peer system. KXRM

I personally don't mind (even like the photo). It's the artist's call. He created the photo. He probably wanted to have the name of the place there, so he edited the photo (he framed it). I don't think it's become ugly or something like that. If you remove it again, I won't be reverting though. DenizTC 04:30, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
