Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on George W. Barlow requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Ayrton Cable, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Hello. I have now nominated Caleb Frank Gates for deletion and I thought you might want to contribute since you contested the Proposed deletion; you can find the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Caleb Frank Gates. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 20:46, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
What exactly did you mean by your comments in removing the Proposed deletion and at the AfD? I must admit I am still confused as to why exactly you called my PROD of that page unhelpful. Was it because Gates does actually meet the criteria for inclusion? Howicus (Did I mess up?) 16:37, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
Yes, and here's the proper method. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 01:03, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Uncle Milty. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ayrton Cable that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. | Uncle Milty | talk | 01:05, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on User talk:King of Hearts. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Callanecc ( talk • contribs • logs) 11:58, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people. Comment on content, not on fellow editors. Callanecc ( talk • contribs • logs) 12:33, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Personal attacks by Claudebone reported by Jim1138. Thank you. Jim1138 ( talk) 08:20, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

08:28, 1 February 2016 (UTC)user:Callanecc is not being entirely unreasonable, but he seems to have taken Jim1138's evidence at face value and not the Wikilawyering that it is. Are we seriously to consider that he has hurt feelings? Are we seriously to consider that pointing out unfortunate lack of WP:COMPETENCEISREQUIRED is a "personal attack"? Remarkable restraint has been shown.
Question for user:Callanecc - how do I deal with wrongly closed AFDs? Claudebone ( talk) 08:41, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
Also question for user:Callanecc? Can you not see the real issue here is one of child protection? Claudebone ( talk) 08:42, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
A final question for user:Callanecc. Can you have a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aryton Cable? What's your take on the way this was handled? Claudebone ( talk) 09:01, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
My block is clearly unnecessary and was made in error, but I'm not going to grovel and plead to be unblocked. I want to discuss the issues with user:Callanecc first. The issues I want to discuss are child protection. I look forward to hearing from user:Callanecc about this policy. Claudebone ( talk) 09:06, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
