A user you cautioned as a vandal for putting up a malformed page turned out to be an honest contributor in need of help writing his or her first article (see User_talk:ParadiseMissouri#Speedy deletion of "ParadiseMissouri:Example". If you see something odd like that coming from a user with a history of limited -- but good -- contributions, it's best to assume good faith and ask them what they are trying to do. We need all the good contributors we can get; we don't want to scare them away or otherwise antagonize them as they learn the ropes. Other than that, good work on Newpages Patrol. You're beating me to a lot of speedy deletions. --Dynaflow babble 13:50, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi again- I see you archived my last note to you without comment, and the notability/advert tags you placed are still on this article. I have added about a dozen references to address your notability concerns. It's hard to understand the advertising tag, since the products described in this article are historical and no longer in production. Please take another look and remove the tags if you are satisfied. If not, please let me know explicitly what you object to. Thanks Robsavoie ( talk) 00:51, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
I was wondering if you could check the article again for the two flags you left. Its my first article, so I don't want to remove the flags until someone who knows what they're doing gives a verbal on whether or not I've solved the article's issues Nercromancy? ( talk) 19:00, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
I see what you mean by the primary sources issue. However, the first cited item is from the introduction to the play, in which the authors specifically state that the play was written for first semester students. Wouldn't this be an exception? I mean, its not like the authors are stating that the play is the greatest work of modern literature; they are just giving their motive. Nercromancy? ( talk) 01:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for reverting the vandalism of my user page - the first one i've ever had! I probably wouldn't have noticed it for ages, so have a cookie :-).
Ok, so you've stuck a load of tags on my article about Performers College, but perhaps you could add a note on the discussion page saying why and what bits you are referring to. First of all, an administrator has already refused speedy deletion of the article, because as an accredited, validated college it passes as notable, even though nobody there was resposible for the develpment of the atom bomb. However, you've stuck a tag on questioning notability??? Also you have tagged it as needing reliable 3rd part references, which I have alrready added. If you could state specifically which bits you're not happy with, then I would be happy to copy the same reference tags to other sentences in the article, as those few references that I have provided back up more or less everything in the article and all are 3rd party. And yes, you could well now say that using words like 'leading school' etc makes it sound like an advert, but it's not the case, all I have done in the article is state facts, the use of phrases like 'leading performing arts school' is not intended as peacock terms or a promotional tone, but are included to highlight what makes this college notable from all the other multitudes of dance schools and courses in the UK. The validity of those kinds of statements is backed up by the reference tag directing you to the website for Trinity College. Can't think of anything else, so maybe you might like to get back to me Crazy-dancing ( talk) 17:14, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi Blanchardb
I see I'm not the first to suggest you might be a little unnecessarily trigger-happy with your shiny tools. Alan Scott (blacksmith) received a full-length obituary in The New York Times (pretty much the epitome of significant coverage in a reliable source independent of the subject), an obituary that was fully cited in the stub you nominated for speedy deletion. While you might not think that the text of that article indicates the subject's importance, the reference is sufficient. You will not find a single administrator that disagrees.
I personally support high notability hurdles for inclusion of subjects in Wikipedia, but throwing around speedys gives weight to the arguments of irrational inclusionists.

Greetings,
I didn't notice the replies to my questions, until after the {{ afd}} closed. You wrote: "The nominator can only do so much." Of course. But, in my experience, many nominators nominate articles for deletion, based on concerns about the current state of the article -- not based on whether the topic merits coverage.
Some of these nominators assert articles are on non-notable topics, without appearing to have conducted any search on the topic themselves. I have found other nominators have conducted a search, have found some sources, but chosen not to be candid about the existence of references, for reasons of their own.
When a nominator has chosen not to conduct a search for references for an article, prior to nominating it for deletion, because they think those kinds of searches are a waste of their time, aren't they very selfishly putting a much higher value on their own time than the value they put on the good faith effort of those who participate in the discussion they initiated? When they claim a topic is "not-notable", without having conducted a search for references, and that topic actually has sources, they have wasted the time of everyone who weighs in on the discussion.
Of course the person who started the article has a greater responsibility than the nominator in researching the article. You and I agree they have the main responsibility. They should make a greater time commitment, because they have to write up those references.

I appreciate your last note. I believe I am understanding the encyclopedic definition. While I was aware that this was not a web style or promotional venue, I can also appreciate the issues over subjective and promotional content in my last attempt at contributions, although that was not my intent. I will as time allows make another stab at providing further information which I believe is appropriate to such a listing. While my attempt may have been flawed I was seeking to build the content as it appears to have been in some other related listing, such as Christian and Missionary Alliance. Your advice is appreciated although the extraction of the entire contribution seems arbitrary. Your Hitler metaphor was probably not the best choice but I got the point. Here is my concern. If someone like me who knows the history and detail up close and personal feels that more data should be supplied and if my relationship calls such contribution into question in some editors minds, then, and I am being sincere in this, would it be more acceptable and wiser for me to provide a contribution to someone like yourself with the understanding that you will remove what does not qualify and you will edit the data so that it is in fact helpful within the wikipedia listing? ronu ( talk) 22:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Ron Unruh

Hello ... saw your reasons for deletion and you may want to reconsider if that was your reasoning ... please take into consideration that those "uncredited" roles you mention on her imdb, were in the early 90's, when she was 2, 3 and 4 years old, and non union. She was not Taft Hartleyed into SAG until aged 3.5 and she was nominated for an award that year, along with Leonardo DiCaprio, The Olson Twins, etc ...
http://www.youngartistawards.org/pastnoms13.htm
The Olson Twins won in her catagory, and Leo lost to Brian Austin Green. I attended the awards myself. She stopped acting at 5 to just be a kid, and then at 11 started writing music and taught herself guitar at 12, and performing on the Sunset strip at 16, had a 1 woman photography show at 16, and has shown at least 6-7 other times, in Los Angeles Galleries. She also did a national commercial that ran for nearly 2 years, and another that ran in japan as well as local theatre. Amber Rose's music has been listed on the web since 2002 when she had her first music page on the shortlived Tonos, created by Baby Face Edmonds, Carole bayer sager and Robert Foster.
Please GOOGLE "amber rose kelly", or see and hear her music pages on myspace, and credits, live performance videos on YouTube etc ... as she is also a very talented singer and songwriter who doesn't deserve to be deleted. Please check your other points of reference available to you on this vast web. We appreciate your future due diligence. Also we're wondering how she came to your attention?

Hi, I just noticed that you dealt with sock puppets relating to this person recently. Over at Warped Tour 2008 there was some vandalism adding mention of a Seth Hilton. I followed the user name and noticed that there are SEVERAL current active users related to this person: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:I_Want_To_See_You http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:DrVince/Seth_Hilton http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Wisher_Tour
and it just goes on and on. Basically each user page is some fictional article relating to something with this fake person. I'm not really sure what this person is up to but it seems very odd to say the least. Since you were the editor who brought it to Wikipedia's attention in the first place, I figured I'd let you know since you would know exactly how to deal with this.

Fair call on the prod, but just a heads-up that I've removed the tag. Even though licensed radio stations are held to be notable and the articles will eventually get created, I've linked the cities of licence in the interim (which I should have done when creating the page). I've added a couple more entries as well, including one with an existing article. Mlaffs ( talk) 16:55, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi
In what way did you think
Cleo Carter(Tutenstein) lacked "sufficient context to identify the subject of the article"? The title alone is
enough to identify the topic, and the article even had a wikilink to the character's voice actor. It also wasn't not "very short", as required by
WP:CSD#A1.

Hi and thank you for offering your kind help. I am not used to deal with all the rules and regulations of Wikipedia. It seems to be very complex. But you seem to be very much up to date with it all, so you might be able to help me out here. Your Choice Records is an independent record label that has managed to create a fairly astonishing catalog of live European and American punk bands in an important period of time. It is very notable as it has documented and released moments of musical history that, even if it happened all independent and without major promotion and big money involved, had a huge impact to the development on music itself. I don´t think we need to argue about "punk" and question it´s existence here. But the musicians mentioned on the "List of Your Choice Records bands" really had strong believe in what they did and they made great changes possible, made people think and react. I think all this is very notable and not minor. This extra page seems reasonable to feature the artists by their names. It is a relevant information and Wikipedia is the right place to provide this information, so please help me out here to SAVE the info, not to delete! Thank you!

Hi: Regarding the list of bands: Germany already agreed with the German version of the site. See: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_Choice_Records_-_Diskografie Could you please remove the consideration for deletion again. It feels so degrading... If it is still not possible: Is there anything I could do to help out? I thought the internal links to the pages of the various bands already fix the problem with the missing sources you mentioned!?!? Besides, there is a possibility to check the official site of the label and various sites on Wikipedia that feature releases of the label, done by various people... Anything else you need or can we leave it like that? Party diktator ( talk) 17:02, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
Alright, tryed to fix the page with some more and better info. Did it just for you as nobody else seems to worry about it. Now the page should be worth to stay like that, don´t you agree? Please be so kind and remove the consideration for deletion. I also wrote to C.Fred and asked him to take away his tag. I am sure there is bigger evils to fight, so please leave me in peace. I only tryed to create something beautiful, informational, educational for Wiki and I am quite happy with the result. I am sure we have a different taste, but this is not mainly about taste, right? It is a list of artists by a record label. On out of 83 on Wiki.en ... ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lists_of_artists_by_record_label) So thanks you for everything!

I am relatively new to Wikipedia and this is the first article I have started. I am also the President of FlowMingle, which may prove to you further that this is spam. However, I would like to argue my case for the inclusion, or non-deletion, of the FlowMingle article. After reading through the references you cited, I suppose that you consider this to be an example of 'Advertisements Masquerading as Articles'. The article contains factual, verifiable, referenced information. If it is the tone of the article that you contest, then I would be happy to try rewriting it to be more neutral. "FlowMingle" appears on Wikipedia twice. Once in the "List of online dating sites". It clearly qualifies for inclusion in this list. Second, in the FlowMingle article. So, people either come to the FlowMingle page through the 'List of online dating sites' or by searching for it directly. Over a thousand people have come to FlowMingle.com from Wikipedia, and hundreds have signed-up. Why is that relevant? Because clearly people value the FlowMingle article as a reference and use the information that it provides. People are using Wikipedia to learn about "online dating" and to educate themselves about the choices they have if they want to pursue online dating. The 'list of online dating sites' contains sites that are all notable in some way. Some of the sites are very large, some of them are unique. FlowMIngle is unique. It is a significant departure from both 'database dating' sites like Math.com, Yahoo! Personals, etc. and from "test based" sites like True.com and eHarmony. The FlowMingle article tries to highlight these differences and outline what FlowMingle offers. Is that informational or promotional? If you examine the other articles that are referenced in the 'list of online dating sites' I think you will find them to be very similar to the FlowMingle article.
But, as I said, I would much rather revise the article than to have it deleted.

I really hope this is how I reply to you. If not, please forgive me (and please let me know what I should do to contact you). I am new to Wikipedia and am still learning.
I recently wrote an article on Single use foodservice packaging (March 23). It is slated to be deleted and editors are discussing it currently. Using the editor's comments as a guide, I've been working on the article, removing some sections, adding others and doing general tweaking to make it more acceptable. This morning I added sections on its history and materials used in the industry.
Is there anyway to tell if I am on the right track or will my changes be considered? Will my changes help save the article? I hate to put a lot of more effort into an article that's just going to be deleted. I have other subjects I am more interested in writing about.
Thank you for your time. I hope you don't mind me writing to you like this, but you posted to my "talk" section that I could contact you with questions and you were the first editor to recommend deletion (so I figured that made you a good place to start looking for ways to improve things).

Hi :)
The Engine 001 Wikipedia page was deleted for two reasons: "User admitted that it was a copyvio" and "author blanking"
Sorry to be a pain, but i am not sure what 'author blanking' means. Also, if i made another Wikipedia page for the software titled "001 action / rpg maker"; Its offical name, would that be ok? I strongly believe this software deserves its own page, and i am prepared to gather a large amount of information and team of contributors before i start the entry this time. I will also ensure there is no bias.
If you feel there should not be a page for the software at this present time, ill take your word for it.

You deleted my article on the acclaimed Toronto band Stop Drop'n Skank. You said this was because they did not have any achievement that would allow the band to have a wikipedia article when i clearly stated that it had a good reviewed album on iTunes. I even edited my article to say that Stop Drop'n Skank was most successful for there album on iTunes, and i also put under the article's discussion page exactly why it should not be deleted yet you still deleted it.

Hi,
Re. Yves Carbonne, I see there's been a bit of edit-warring going on :-)
Remembering that there is no deadline, please could you cooperate in two ways;
1. Please don't edit the article further, while we resolve this
2. Please, instead, *suggest* your edits and discuss them in the article talk page.
I will add a section to the talk page right now, Talk:Yves_Carbonne#The_battle_of_March_.272009

Hello. You have proposed Unified ECM for deletion because it is not notable software. This software is not only used by major film financing and production companies in Los Angeles but is also used free of charge by dozens of churches in Southern California. It was actually in the process of being under construction, but the writer had to take a break and saved without displaying that. My question is, where is the definition for Notable software in Wikipedia, or is it your personal choice? As far as the citations and other things that would validate Unified, the writer was in the process of that. Thanks. Buckeye31177 ( talk) 22:38, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Okay, Blanchard. I can respect that, although the writer didn't have a chance to use sources because they weren't finished yet. I really don't care at this point, one way or another, because if this ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_DeArmond) is what Wikipedia considers "Notable" and worthy of an "Encyclopedia", I'd rather not have Unified affiliated with this glorified "big blog" in any way. It's too bad because your information about Astronomy and businesses is great, it's just too bad it has to be associated with such "noteworthy" smut. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buckeye31177 ( talk • contribs) 17:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi there,
I attempted to create a page for a website (sunonthesand.net) I contribute to last month and was informed that it did not meet the notability requirement. This is fair according to your stipulations given that we are not that prominent as it stands but I do have one question regarding another matter. A few of our staff members have posted links to our reviews on album pages and they are constantly removed. One of us was even told by wikipedia personnel that we could do so yet our work is removed nonetheless. Why is this so? If I put a few up tomorrow, will they be taken off again? I would understand if we posted needlessly negative writing and it was subsequently removed by an overzealous fan but the reviews we have tried to post were usually in the 4 star range. Any insight on this would be appreciated. Iamnotacamera ( talk) 06:06, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Ah, while I believe that our reviews do present their own spin on albums and are helpful to music enthusiasts, I can understand the thought process here. As for flooding a page with external links, I would frankly find that incredibly convenient as a wikipedia user. Then again, that may just be me. Regardless, thank you for the reply.

Dear Blanchardb. You have tagged the r n km.t article with a tag containing this quote:
This page may meet Wikipedia’s criteria for speedy deletion as a recently created redirect page resulting from a typo or misnomer which is implausible and not common, and is not in another language. See CSD R3.
You are wrong. r n km.t is the Egyptian name for the Egyptian language. You might want to refer to the Egyptian language article before tagging r n km.t for deletion.

Hey, thanks for reverting the vandalism of my user page - the first one i've ever had! I probably wouldn't have noticed it for ages, so have a cookie :-).
Ok, so you've stuck a load of tags on my article about Performers College, but perhaps you could add a note on the discussion page saying why and what bits you are referring to. First of all, an administrator has already refused speedy deletion of the article, because as an accredited, validated college it passes as notable, even though nobody there was resposible for the develpment of the atom bomb. However, you've stuck a tag on questioning notability??? Also you have tagged it as needing reliable 3rd part references, which I have alrready added. If you could state specifically which bits you're not happy with, then I would be happy to copy the same reference tags to other sentences in the article, as those few references that I have provided back up more or less everything in the article and all are 3rd party. And yes, you could well now say that using words like 'leading school' etc makes it sound like an advert, but it's not the case, all I have done in the article is state facts, the use of phrases like 'leading performing arts school' is not intended as peacock terms or a promotional tone, but are included to highlight what makes this college notable from all the other multitudes of dance schools and courses in the UK. The validity of those kinds of statements is backed up by the reference tag directing you to the website for Trinity College.

Hi Blanchardb
I see I'm not the first to suggest you might be a little unnecessarily trigger-happy with your shiny tools. Alan Scott (blacksmith) received a full-length obituary in The New York Times (pretty much the epitome of significant coverage in a reliable source independent of the subject), an obituary that was fully cited in the stub you nominated for speedy deletion. While you might not think that the text of that article indicates the subject's importance, the reference is sufficient. You will not find a single administrator that disagrees.
I personally support high notability hurdles for inclusion of subjects in Wikipedia, but throwing around speedys gives weight to the arguments of irrational inclusionists.

Greetings,
I didn't notice the replies to my questions, until after the {{ afd}} closed. You wrote: "The nominator can only do so much." Of course. But, in my experience, many nominators nominate articles for deletion, based on concerns about the current state of the article -- not based on whether the topic merits coverage.
Some of these nominators assert articles are on non-notable topics, without appearing to have conducted any search on the topic themselves. I have found other nominators have conducted a search, have found some sources, but chosen not to be candid about the existence of references, for reasons of their own.
When a nominator has chosen not to conduct a search for references for an article, prior to nominating it for deletion, because they think those kinds of searches are a waste of their time, aren't they very selfishly putting a much higher value on their own time than the value they put on the good faith effort of those who participate in the discussion they initiated? When they claim a topic is "not-notable", without having conducted a search for references, and that topic actually has sources, they have wasted the time of everyone who weighs in on the discussion.
Of course the person who started the article has a greater responsibility than the nominator in researching the article. You and I agree they have the main responsibility. They should make a greater time commitment, because they have to write up those references.

I appreciate your last note. I believe I am understanding the encyclopedic definition. While I was aware that this was not a web style or promotional venue, I can also appreciate the issues over subjective and promotional content in my last attempt at contributions, although that was not my intent. I will as time allows make another stab at providing further information which I believe is appropriate to such a listing. While my attempt may have been flawed I was seeking to build the content as it appears to have been in some other related listing, such as Christian and Missionary Alliance. Your advice is appreciated although the extraction of the entire contribution seems arbitrary. Your Hitler metaphor was probably not the best choice but I got the point. Here is my concern. If someone like me who knows the history and detail up close and personal feels that more data should be supplied and if my relationship calls such contribution into question in some editors minds, then, and I am being sincere in this, would it be more acceptable and wiser for me to provide a contribution to someone like yourself with the understanding that you will remove what does not qualify and you will edit the data so that it is in fact helpful within the wikipedia listing? ronu ( talk) 22:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Ron Unruh

Hello ... saw your reasons for deletion and you may want to reconsider if that was your reasoning ... please take into consideration that those "uncredited" roles you mention on her imdb, were in the early 90's, when she was 2, 3 and 4 years old, and non union. She was not Taft Hartleyed into SAG until aged 3.5 and she was nominated for an award that year, along with Leonardo DiCaprio, The Olson Twins, etc ...
http://www.youngartistawards.org/pastnoms13.htm
The Olson Twins won in her catagory, and Leo lost to Brian Austin Green. I attended the awards myself. She stopped acting at 5 to just be a kid, and then at 11 started writing music and taught herself guitar at 12, and performing on the Sunset strip at 16, had a 1 woman photography show at 16, and has shown at least 6-7 other times, in Los Angeles Galleries. She also did a national commercial that ran for nearly 2 years, and another that ran in japan as well as local theatre. Amber Rose's music has been listed on the web since 2002 when she had her first music page on the shortlived Tonos, created by Baby Face Edmonds, Carole bayer sager and Robert Foster.
Please GOOGLE "amber rose kelly", or see and hear her music pages on myspace, and credits, live performance videos on YouTube etc ... as she is also a very talented singer and songwriter who doesn't deserve to be deleted.

Hi and thank you for offering your kind help. I am not used to deal with all the rules and regulations of Wikipedia. It seems to be very complex. But you seem to be very much up to date with it all, so you might be able to help me out here. Your Choice Records is an independent record label that has managed to create a fairly astonishing catalog of live European and American punk bands in an important period of time. It is very notable as it has documented and released moments of musical history that, even if it happened all independent and without major promotion and big money involved, had a huge impact to the development on music itself. I don´t think we need to argue about "punk" and question it´s existence here. But the musicians mentioned on the "List of Your Choice Records bands" really had strong believe in what they did and they made great changes possible, made people think and react. I think all this is very notable and not minor. This extra page seems reasonable to feature the artists by their names. It is a relevant information and Wikipedia is the right place to provide this information, so please help me out here to SAVE the info, not to delete! Thank you!

Alright, tryed to fix the page with some more and better info. Did it just for you as nobody else seems to worry about it. Now the page should be worth to stay like that, don´t you agree? Please be so kind and remove the consideration for deletion. I also wrote to C.Fred and asked him to take away his tag. I am sure there is bigger evils to fight, so please leave me in peace. I only tryed to create something beautiful, informational, educational for Wiki and I am quite happy with the result. I am sure we have a different taste, but this is not mainly about taste, right? It is a list of artists by a record label. On out of 83 on Wiki.en ... ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lists_of_artists_by_record_label) So thanks you for everything! I have learnd quite a lot through this session. All the very best, Party diktator ( talk) 23:38, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Greetings from Chicago I have improved the article 1997 Sangrampora massacre and placed my comments and arguments why these articles belong to wikipedia on the talk page of each article. Ditto for the article on 1994 kidnappings of Western tourists in India. these articles are about events which played an important role in the deterrioration of India Pakistan relationship which almost led to a nuclear war at kargil in 1999. Have a great day. -- Wikireader41 ( talk) 01:04, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

A Hortatory is an essential part of language and speech - ANY language and speech. If you delete the Hortatory, why not delete "verb" and "noun" as equally useless. Deleting this would be like deleting Greek from the Bible because people don't understand it or use it very often.

I am relatively new to Wikipedia and this is the first article I have started. I am also the President of FlowMingle, which may prove to you further that this is spam. However, I would like to argue my case for the inclusion, or non-deletion, of the FlowMingle article. After reading through the references you cited, I suppose that you consider this to be an example of 'Advertisements Masquerading as Articles'. The article contains factual, verifiable, referenced information. If it is the tone of the article that you contest, then I would be happy to try rewriting it to be more neutral. "FlowMingle" appears on Wikipedia twice. Once in the "List of online dating sites". It clearly qualifies for inclusion in this list. Second, in the FlowMingle article. So, people either come to the FlowMingle page through the 'List of online dating sites' or by searching for it directly. Over a thousand people have come to FlowMingle.com from Wikipedia, and hundreds have signed-up. Why is that relevant? Because clearly people value the FlowMingle article as a reference and use the information that it provides. People are using Wikipedia to learn about "online dating" and to educate themselves about the choices they have if they want to pursue online dating. The 'list of online dating sites' contains sites that are all notable in some way. Some of the sites are very large, some of them are unique. FlowMIngle is unique. It is a significant departure from both 'database dating' sites like Math.com, Yahoo! Personals, etc. and from "test based" sites like True.com and eHarmony. The FlowMingle article tries to highlight these differences and outline what FlowMingle offers. Is that informational or promotional? If you examine the other articles that are referenced in the 'list of online dating sites' I think you will find them to be very similar to the FlowMingle article.
But, as I said, I would much rather revise the article than to have it deleted.

Was their a reason for the redirection of the Metamatic Records article redirection. I didn't see any discussion about the article.

I really hope this is how I reply to you. If not, please forgive me (and please let me know what I should do to contact you). I am new to Wikipedia and am still learning.
I recently wrote an article on Single use foodservice packaging (March 23). It is slated to be deleted and editors are discussing it currently. Using the editor's comments as a guide, I've been working on the article, removing some sections, adding others and doing general tweaking to make it more acceptable. This morning I added sections on its history and materials used in the industry.
Is there anyway to tell if I am on the right track or will my changes be considered? Will my changes help save the article? I hate to put a lot of more effort into an article that's just going to be deleted. I have other subjects I am more interested in writing about.
Thank you for your time. I hope you don't mind me writing to you like this, but you posted to my "talk" section that I could contact you with questions and you were the first editor to recommend deletion (so I figured that made you a good place to start looking for ways to improve things).

Hi :)
The Engine 001 Wikipedia page was deleted for two reasons: "User admitted that it was a copyvio" and "author blanking"
Sorry to be a pain, but i am not sure what 'author blanking' means. Also, if i made another Wikipedia page for the software titled "001 action / rpg maker"; Its offical name, would that be ok? I strongly believe this software deserves its own page, and i am prepared to gather a large amount of information and team of contributors before i start the entry this time. I will also ensure there is no bias.
If you feel there should not be a page for the software at this present time, ill take your word for it.

You deleted my article on the acclaimed Toronto band Stop Drop'n Skank. You said this was because they did not have any achievement that would allow the band to have a wikipedia article when i clearly stated that it had a good reviewed album on iTunes. I even edited my article to say that Stop Drop'n Skank was most successful for there album on iTunes, and i also put under the article's discussion page exactly why it should not be deleted yet you still deleted it. I am suspecting that you only deleted the article because yo had not heard of the band and you disproved of the name. This would make sense seeing that you are strongly Christian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by FunMan3344 ( talk • contribs) 22:23, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello. You have proposed Unified ECM for deletion because it is not notable software. This software is not only used by major film financing and production companies in Los Angeles but is also used free of charge by dozens of churches in Southern California. It was actually in the process of being under construction, but the writer had to take a break and saved without displaying that. My question is, where is the definition for Notable software in Wikipedia, or is it your personal choice? As far as the citations and other things that would validate Unified, the writer was in the process of that. Thanks. Buckeye31177 ( talk) 22:38, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Okay, Blanchard. I can respect that, although the writer didn't have a chance to use sources because they weren't finished yet. I really don't care at this point, one way or another, because if this ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_DeArmond) is what Wikipedia considers "Notable" and worthy of an "Encyclopedia", I'd rather not have Unified affiliated with this glorified "big blog" in any way. It's too bad because your information about Astronomy and businesses is great, it's just too bad it has to be associated with such "noteworthy" smut. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buckeye31177 ( talk • contribs) 17:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
I think that your placement of tags on Henry Plater-Zyberk less than a minute after its creation, which one can clearly see is under development at this very moment, is pushing it a little bit.

Hi there,
I attempted to create a page for a website (sunonthesand.net) I contribute to last month and was informed that it did not meet the notability requirement. This is fair according to your stipulations given that we are not that prominent as it stands but I do have one question regarding another matter. A few of our staff members have posted links to our reviews on album pages and they are constantly removed. One of us was even told by wikipedia personnel that we could do so yet our work is removed nonetheless. Why is this so? If I put a few up tomorrow, will they be taken off again? I would understand if we posted needlessly negative writing and it was subsequently removed by an overzealous fan but the reviews we have tried to post were usually in the 4 star range. Any insight on this would be appreciated. Iamnotacamera ( talk) 06:06, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Ah, while I believe that our reviews do present their own spin on albums and are helpful to music enthusiasts, I can understand the thought process here. As for flooding a page with external links, I would frankly find that incredibly convenient as a wikipedia user. Then again, that may just be me. Regardless, thank you for the reply.

Dear Blanchardb. You have tagged the r n km.t article with a tag containing this quote:
This page may meet Wikipedia’s criteria for speedy deletion as a recently created redirect page resulting from a typo or misnomer which is implausible and not common, and is not in another language. See CSD R3.
You are wrong. r n km.t is the Egyptian name for the Egyptian language. You might want to refer to the Egyptian language article before tagging r n km.t for deletion.

Hello I need help to resolve a matter and I am aware that I may not be following all the proper protocols.
But I have edited a page about Gerry MacLochlainn and O Fenian keeps removing my edits. He is doing so on the basis that he does not accept the Western Mail as a paper of record. Well I do not know how else to say this but IT IS A PAPER OF RECORD. How do I get this dispute resolved.
Now it seems you are wrong and have been warned. Is it reasonable that someone who is actually wrong in his description of the Western Mail can act as if it is only his opinion that counts?-- 86.131.127.183 ( talk) 21:27, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Thank you - I have attempted to do this but O Fenian just ignores my comments regarding the Western Mail and cuts my edits. He is breaking the three revert rule as much as I am (just seen that you have said that - sorry) and quite honestly I find it bizarre. It seems he has a personal reason for censoring material on MacLochlainn. The western Mail is a paper of record in fact it is the paper of record in Wales and that will be confirmed by anyone from Wales.
