I'm impressed you found what was indeed a copyright violation.

Will rephrase the material and give it a proper cite. Barte ( talk) 01:55, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for reviewing my page on ACR. It's my first attempt at creating a page for an organization, and I see that I have more to learn about wikipedia's standards. I sent you an e-mail a few days ago about the tags on the main page, asking whether or not they had been resolved through the inclusion of enough secondary sources. It looks like one has been, and I'll try to resolve the other one as soon as possible. Regarding the A Cappella Records discography page, I tried to copy the design of the page for Verve Records discography as much as possible, as they are a similar label. Wouldn't Verve's page violate the same directory rule? I'm just trying to understand whether I can include discography at all, or should just leave it off the article. All the best, TheEndlessVoid ( talk) 18:19, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Cindy, a week ago my page for Borderland Beat was subject to a speedy delete. This happened while I was at work, so I didn't get a chance to see any comments that might have been in the ajoining Talk page before the Talk page got deleted. I understand that the reasons for the speedy delete were that I failed to make the case that Borderland Beat was notable and also that the page was advertising. Please help with the advertising reason, was it because I included a link to Nabble, or for some other reason. I know this all happened a week ago, so difficult to remember, but my Borderland Beat page is still up in my User:Georgeblake/sandbox. Thanks. Georgeblake ( talk) 08:38, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
I have just declined Steel service center for speedy deletion. An article cannot be speedied because of a sentence or two of copyvio when the rest of the article is appropriate. The correct action here is to remove the copyvio. This is not the only speedy nomination I have seen from you with this problem, although admittedly the others looked of less encyclopedic value. Spinning Spark 11:28, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
Why did you redirect to Hastings despite there being absolutely no information about the aforementioned institution or even anything more concrete about primary education then "18 primary schools"? Nor did you even redirect it to the education heading. I don't have an issue with the removal of the article I created since I was not aware of that policy, but I do have an issue with sloppy procedure. Wouldn't a deletion, or at the very most, an attempt to integrate some of that information into the Hastings article have been better? Please don't do a policy dump on me either. Best regards. Jpanzerj ( talk) 14:10, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for putting the warning on my talk page! I didn't even think about when the page was created, I will now! Have a good day and thanks again. Cheers,

I have to apologize to you because I did not realize that Erica Kennedy had been totally rewritten--and, in my personal opinion, massacred. In its current form it does look like a news report. If it is reverted to my original form then I'd be in favour of keeping it, but if it is to remain in its current form then please do delete it. Thanks and again my apologies.

Invitation from the
Guild of Copy Editors
The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their July 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on July 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on July 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to eliminate the articles tagged in April, May and June 2011 from the queue and to complete all requests placed before the end of June. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 6 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in April–June 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Hi Cindy, I couldn't find Click here to contest this speedy deletion, so am writing you here. The "Not On Our Watch" page to which you refer already existing is about a book.

Hi Cindy, a week ago my page for Borderland Beat was subject to a speedy delete. This happened while I was at work, so I didn't get a chance to see any comments that might have been in the ajoining Talk page before the Talk page got deleted. I understand that the reasons for the speedy delete were that I failed to make the case that Borderland Beat was notable and also that the page was advertising. Please help with the advertising reason, was it because I included a link to Nabble, or for some other reason. I know this all happened a week ago, so difficult to remember, but my Borderland Beat page is still up in my User:Georgeblake/sandbox. Thanks. Georgeblake ( talk) 08:38, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
I have just declined Steel service center for speedy deletion. An article cannot be speedied because of a sentence or two of copyvio when the rest of the article is appropriate. The correct action here is to remove the copyvio. This is not the only speedy nomination I have seen from you with this problem, although admittedly the others looked of less encyclopedic value.

Why did you redirect to Hastings despite there being absolutely no information about the aforementioned institution or even anything more concrete about primary education then "18 primary schools"? Nor did you even redirect it to the education heading. I don't have an issue with the removal of the article I created since I was not aware of that policy, but I do have an issue with sloppy procedure. Wouldn't a deletion, or at the very most, an attempt to integrate some of that information into the Hastings article have been better? Please don't do a policy dump on me either. Best regards.

Thanks for putting the warning on my talk page! I didn't even think about when the page was created, I will now! Have a good day and thanks again. Cheers,

I have to apologize to you because I did not realize that Erica Kennedy had been totally rewritten--and, in my personal opinion, massacred. In its current form it does look like a news report. If it is reverted to my original form then I'd be in favour of keeping it, but if it is to remain in its current form then please do delete it. Thanks and again my apologies.

Invitation from the
Guild of Copy Editors
The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their July 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on July 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on July 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to eliminate the articles tagged in April, May and June 2011 from the queue and to complete all requests placed before the end of June. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 6 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in April–June 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Hi Cindy, I couldn't find Click here to contest this speedy deletion, so am writing you here. The "Not On Our Watch" page to which you refer already existing is about a book. The Not On Our Watch Project to which I referred is totally different, not a book. May it please be reinstated? Thank you, Leila Leilapaz ( talk) 14:09, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Cindy, thank you for your help with this page. I thought some of the characteristics in the info box made it a bit too wordy, so made some changes. Looking for other references. Thanks again. Leilapaz ( talk) 14:03, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
