Thanks for your comment here. Does File:DollywoodBaldEagle.jpg have a feature picture chance? Thanks. -- Uzma Gamal ( talk) 05:45, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi, You recently closed a deletion review for the article Ian Erix. I was a contributor and I provided several sources includinng clear and verifiable proof that the article passes the Entertainer guidelines for inclusion on Wikipedia. Could you please explain why your decision was not in favor of re-instating the article since it does meet the criteria set forth by Wikpedia for inclusion? Thank you very much.

Response Thanks for your reply. I understand what you are saying but it was my contention that there was new reasoning to keep the page, I wasn't challenging in-partcicluar the proper closure of the AFD, but I was pointing out new reasoning for the page to be kept. Did I take the wrong action with a DRV? The article was originally challenged for not meeting criteria for a musicaian even though there are published sources such as All Music Guide [ [1]]and MTV [ [2]]that claim the subject has had top ten hits in several countries and I don't understand why that is not suffiecent,after all they are independant and verifable sources and that is all that Wikipeda requires. But regardless of that, I do believe the article also meets the criteria setforth under WP:ENTERTAINER as the subject has been featured in several television projects and has a sizeable fanbase and/or "cult" following. That argument was not made in the AFD and there are sources to back the facts up and that is the challenge I was attempting to make in the DRV as I think the page should be kept on the basis that it clearly passes the Entertainer guidelines. Can you please recomend a course of action I can take now. Should I re-create the page? I am not a pro on Wikipedia but I am working in good faith and I do feel this article has been judged harshly and unjustly. Thank you again for your time and help. It is much appreciated.

Thanks for uploading File:500000cruzeiros.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ww2censor ( talk) 17:25, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi Chick Bowen. You participated in Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2011 April 13#Ch interpreter. Originally closed as "[n]o consensus = no change to the status quo", the DRV close has been amended by the closer to relist.

Hello Chick Bowen. I would like you to settle a problem about the Wiki project of Western Sahara. The founder of this project (User:Koavf) claims publicly that he's a pro-SADR (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic) and anti-Morocco. He also says, since he's the founder, that he owns the project and has the right to write anything he wants in it. That's why the project holds the flag of the SADR. But the UN states that Western Sahara is a territory under dispute and therefore UN does not recognize any sovereignty (either Moroccan or Sahrawi) on this territory. So, there must be no flag for the project or at least the flag of the UN. The presence of the flag of the SADR as the one of Western Sahara is complete non-neutrality. Would you like please to settle this? I would be most greatful if you could do something. Thanking you in advance. Moroccan Sahara ( talk) 13:28, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi! I saw the page 'User:Chick Bowen/Why I am opposed to community deadminship' after I read your comment from two days ago, regarding the admin flag thingy. I was thinking after reading, if the rules are quite strict and complex, it gives nasty, but technically knowledgeable admins an unfair advantage, something I know well. I think if the rules are (and I know this will seem crazy) a little more 'fuzzy', but still based on the community opinions, as held in the minds of individual 'crats, then that's a good thing. Nasty people won't sit on the fence and exploit the rules if the fence is shaky. They'll blooming well stay away from that fence and come play nice with the rest of us. I think it's better for people to choose a direction to travel, rather than draw lines on the ground and live in boxes. Just a thought, I hope you can understand what I mean, I'm not looking for agreement, just offering something for you to possibly consider. Penyulap talk 14:51, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi Chick Bowen. You nominated capture bonding for deletion in November 2007 at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Capture bonding (2nd nomination). Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2011 August 21#Capture bonding concluded that the page "has been restored to mainspace this is closing as relisting [at] AFD at user discretion". I don't see any nontrivial changes since it was userfied on 7 December 2007. I have asked Spartaz ( talk · contribs), the DRV closer to review the article to see if {{ db-repost}} is applicable. If it is not applicable, would you review the article to see whether it should be renominated for deletion? Thanks, Cunard ( talk) 01:35, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
