Hi Ansell, I have nominated Creation Seventh Day Adventist Church for deletion due to a lack of notability, and thought I'd let you know as a courtesy measure, since you appear to have been involved in its editing. Here is its entry at Articles for deletion (AFD). Colin MacLaurin ( talk) 17:06, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I did, in fact, ask the person who put it there, as you could have checked. [1] The OTRS system is completely opaque; the least someone could do when adding that header is explain why they're adding that header despite the fact there's no trace of a debate in the article or on the talk page about the issue.-- Prosfilaes ( talk) 23:01, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing the personal info that someone left at WT:COI and removing it. I wonder to what degree oversight is needed in these cases. The person has made only one other edit, apparently not controversial, and he is the one who left his own information. One can look up that sort of thing in publicly available telephone books, so I speculate that oversight may not be necessary. (Though I'm clearly not an expert in such matters).

A tag has been placed on Design Science (company), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under 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 the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{
hangon}}
on the top of the article and leave a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any
citations from
reliable sources to ensure that the article will be
verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Socrates2008 (

I would check yourself before posting rudeness and insulting comments about any other person on a mailing list or anywhere else on Wikipedia space ever again. This is absolutely 100% unacceptable.
On a side note, I am completely anti putting underage childrens photos on personal user pages. It is utterly irresponsible for a parent to do that. But that isn't really the issue here.
How dare you call anyone a bad parent based on their own decisions? How does that help the encyclopedia? And if it wasn't the issue, why did you feel the need to spew that nastiness and go there in the first place? Check yourself before you wreck yourself. And I'm done. Mike H. Fierce! 04:24, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
I don't necessarily agree with your comment (that is, that I would come to the same conclusion), but it was hardly something to be this upset about. It still isn't something people want others to say on the mailing list, but these guys are spazzing out on your talk page. If you ever comment about me in a similar way, I'd probably flip you off in my mind, but I wouldn't get all butt-hurt about it like this. I feel more bad for you than I do for LaraLove. -- Ned Scott 07:21, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
(undent). I'm being quite serious here, are you not aware, nor have ever learned about Aristotelian logic? If not, then you will learn something, if so, then here is a refresher:
a) If is utterly irresponsible for a parent to post underage childrens photos
on personal user pages and
b) There are pictures of underage children on on parent's userpage then
c) Those parents are utterly irresponsible.
So the comment was not 'general' by any stretch of logic; it pertained exactly to a particular userpage, with particular photos, posted by particular parents. 'Particular' is contrary to 'general.' the_undertow talk 02:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
