Hi. Im new at wikipedia as a member. Im not good at editing and im not good at english itself. But i didnt understand why the page "Mamlambo" was to be deletion. Mamlambo is investigated in southern african and most black south african knows mamlambo and all other races just as long as they live in rural areas. I do not think the mamlambo article must be remove because investigators would find information from the page to help them about getting her and it is an african creature that even other people must know about as it has killed children and adults too. So please can you help the page not deletion please... Thami29 ( talk) 16:25, 27 June 2010 (UTC) Thami, (Thami29)
I've just made (Wiki)life difficult for us, by creating an article for Holy Soap. If it doesn't get re-directed or deleted, we'll have to go round all of the Neighbours pages and add the links to it.

FYI,
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lighstream pictures wasn't necessary at all. You could've just tagged the article with {{

, as duplication of an existing article is a criterion for speedy deletion. —

Would you like to elucidate on why you are reverting my edits on List of Intel Itanium microprocessors? Yes, I am aware they were reversion already and they contain many external links but if you had bothered to read the discussion on my talk page: User talk:192.102.209.29#Jule 2010 you'd know it was decided to allow these edits. 192.102.209.29 ( talk) 01:13, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
Was this revert intentional because you didn't like the edit? Because if not, it probably should go back to the IP version. If you reverted it just because of all the reverts done by the IP, they had a discussion on the talk page and consensus was reached that the IP version should be used instead. If you didn't like it, then please let me know (otherwise I'll just revert it back to the IP's version since it seemed like that was the only reason for your revert). Thanks, Shirik ( Questions or Comments?) 01:13, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
The page on Software versioning contained a hidden link to the page about foreskin where it was far from obvious that it would go there. As such I deem it inappropriate that a page with a very NSFW photo at the top should unexpectedly open from a page that is very relevant on many work places, as such I rewrote the section slightly to explain the 'wordplay' in the sentence with words rather than have the unintended link side effect. ClueBot reverted my edit because it contained the word 'pen1s' (with 1 to evade cluelessbot and its shortsighted regexp) and I went through the trouble to revert it as a valid edit - only to see you revert it to ClueBot's version 20 minutes later. Care to elaborate why you want that page to contain a hidden link to foreskin photos so badly? Curry684 ( talk) 01:33, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

What you reverted on Mort Mills was not vandalism. I was just trying to move his birth and death date to the bottom where personal info goes, and add a small amount of some helpful content. I think with all his credits, it might be a mis-statement to say that he was "best known" for a bit part in a movie, no matter how popular that movie is. Also, you reversed a small italics correction on a title. 71.130.241.56 ( talk) 19:28, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

You have made some constructive edits to Frank Guinta so I am hoping you can give some advice. A new IP showed up last night to make multiple edits whose sum was to bring the article back to almost the exact state desired by a recently banned-for-edit-warring IP. The new IP's comments on the talk page are also in tone and content like the old IP's comments, angrily accusing others of bias while ignoring Wikipedia policies such as WP:RS, WP:SYNTHESIS, and of course WP:NPA. Is it possible for Checkuser to detect if these two are the same person? Also, can you suggest any way to motivate this person to make constructive edits instead of repeatedly trying to put the page back into its former state, which was larded with unsourced praise for the candidate it describes? betsythedevine ( talk) 11:21, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

HI, always nice to see your handle around the place (which I do a lot)! There are a bunch of templates that are supposed to be always substituted, {{
Unsigned}} is one of these. It rarely gets used these days, because SineBot takes care of that side of things, so this was a catch-up exercise, that is now complete for article talk pages. The change of banner name is something that has been building up over the last couple of years. All but 5 of the 1283 project banners (!) are now at WikiProject <Blah blah>, including the 'Stenders one. So changing them when we get an automated edit on a talk page is just a bonus - not as useful where there is jus t one WikiProject, but some pages have quite a stack, and a lot of the old names are not obviously banners.

I edited a page about Bruce Willis, which inquired as to why his page is unprotected if other pages such as Lil'Waynes wikipage are. It makes no sense why his page is protected when people may actually not like him, but people do like Bruce Willis.

Greetings, the
Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invites you to participate in the
November 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 November at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 November at 23:59 (UTC). The goal for this drive is to reduce the backlog by 10% (approximately 500 articles). We hope to focus our efforts on the oldest three months (January, February, and March 2009) and the newest three months (September, October, and November 2010) of articles in the queue.
Sign-up has already begun at the November drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page. Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Awards and barnstars A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants, some of which are exclusive to GOCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page. Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive! |

Also, you reversed a small italics correction on a title. 71.130.241.56 ( talk) 19:28, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
I think the Corel Draw edit may have been an attempt at constructive editing by someone who was pretty clueless. I've tried to make the appropriate edit to CDR Susfele ( talk) 01:32, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
You just select the .zip file from the file manager and you get an option to open it with later versions of windows as if it were a folder. If you can't do that find "winzip" on the web. Rich Farmbrough, 19:29, 13 September 2010 (UTC).
Many thanks, 5 albert square, for all you do on Wikipedia—especially keeping my personal pages free of vandalism!!! Regards, Pinethicket ( talk) 23:54, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi 4 albert square. All the things I removed were the advertising material added by User:Copo22.-- Bad edits r dumb ( talk) 22:05, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Confused, what's the problem with this image? There's neither source nor license, but I don't see how a simple photograph is vandalism. Nyttend ( talk) 22:25, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

One recreated page, comin' up. Thanks for your due diligence; I should do that more often. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 22:27, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm sorry for having deleted the entire content from the I7 destination article. I suggest the article be deleted because I7 does not fly anywhere now.

You have made some constructive edits to Frank Guinta so I am hoping you can give some advice. A new IP showed up last night to make multiple edits whose sum was to bring the article back to almost the exact state desired by a recently banned-for-edit-warring IP. The new IP's comments on the talk page are also in tone and content like the old IP's comments, angrily accusing others of bias while ignoring Wikipedia policies such as WP:RS, WP:SYNTHESIS, and of course WP:NPA. Is it possible for Checkuser to detect if these two are the same person? Also, can you suggest any way to motivate this person to make constructive edits instead of repeatedly trying to put the page back into its former state, which was larded with unsourced praise for the candidate it describes? betsythedevine ( talk) 11:21, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Pretty obvious, IP blocked for 1 week.— Kww( talk) 22:16, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the advice, and thanks to all who took a look at this problem. I hope the mystery editor, when he returns, will find some better plan of engaging with Wikipedia, such as finding WP:RS for claims he wants the bio to include. betsythedevine ( talk) 12:56, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
I'm in twitter jail and can't let anyone know - apart from you cos you're here. Can't even say goodnight to everyone. Shouldn't use this to communicate but... what the hell. It'll be a few hours before I can tweet again now, so will have to go to bed! As for Courteney and David - wouldn't it be obvious that if they're trending topics, they've split up? lol Anemone Projectors 01:14, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
HI, always nice to see your handle around the place (which I do a lot)! There are a bunch of templates that are supposed to be always substituted, {{
Unsigned}} is one of these. It rarely gets used these days, because SineBot takes care of that side of things, so this was a catch-up exercise, that is now complete for article talk pages. The change of banner name is something that has been building up over the last couple of years. All but 5 of the 1283 project banners (!) are now at WikiProject <Blah blah>, including the 'Stenders one. So changing them when we get an automated edit on a talk page is just a bonus - not as useful where there is jus t one WikiProject, but some pages have quite a stack, and a lot of the old names are not obviously banners.

I edited a page about Bruce Willis, which inquired as to why his page is unprotected if other pages such as Lil'Waynes wikipage are. It makes no sense why his page is protected when people may actually not like him, but people do like Bruce Willis. This protected page thing seems to go to people who gain negative vandalism as apposed to people who are liked. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.109.34.50 ( talk) 20:42, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Greetings, the
Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invites you to participate in the
November 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 November at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 November at 23:59 (UTC). The goal for this drive is to reduce the backlog by 10% (approximately 500 articles). We hope to focus our efforts on the oldest three months (January, February, and March 2009) and the newest three months (September, October, and November 2010) of articles in the queue.
Sign-up has already begun at the November drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page. Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Awards and barnstars A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants, some of which are exclusive to GOCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page. Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive! |

![]() | On 21 October 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Matthew Werkmeister, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

i'm just confused. the page was fine until i made the mistake of adding categories (like it asks me to) and now the whole page is littered with warnings and deletions.
the page had been as it was for many months until i made the mistake today of trying to improve it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Delitist ( talk • contribs) 01:20, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
