I just read this article. Interesting - it shed light on the mythological context for something that happens in a novel I'm reading now, Small Favor. Water coming out of a sprinkler system in a building is described as stagnant and stinky; however, after a Knight of the Cross uses his holy sword to kill a bunch of hobs, the water smells like roses.

Hello Drmies, I'm really sorry. It was hard for me to understand Wikipedia's guidelines. Can you please tell me why does there have to be limit of info for plot? What's total amount of word has to be in plot? I want to know clearly so I don't disrupt editing. When I look at my user talk page, I reply to messages. After I reply, I delete them. Is it okay for me to delete them after I reply? If I'm blocked from editing, then is it possible to send messages to you or other user talk pages. If it's possible, then how do I do it? Hope I'm not vandalizing your talk page. Again, why's it bad to put alot of info in plot? I type every detail for movie, because some people want to know everything that happens in film. I added some info to Disturbia(film). If I edited Disturbia film plot in bad way, then you could delete it. Fine with me.(-- 99.88.78.94 ( talk) 02:08, 10 April 2010 (UTC))

It appears that Geotomez is the author of the book that he cites. The book is self-published, and I have not yet found any reviews of it. He is correct that the founding date was 1926. I must have mistyped it originally. "The J.R.S. Foundation" but not "The J.R.S. Biodiversity Foundation" is supported by other sources, Business Wire for example, but apparently the attempted name change didn't last, as news reports continued to refer to it as BIOSIS. -- Bejnar ( talk) 04:52, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Nice work cutting out a lot of the problematic material in the New Weird entry.

I see that you also edited Regenboog Brewery, which I mention only because the similar word "regenbogen" is my favorite German word.

Could you possibly sidle over to my talk page and take a quick look at a Biographical information section that I'm working on for the Dale Bozzio page? It would replace her Career section. Also, the Personal life section would be deleted. Since I have found it awkward to separate her work outside of the music business into its own section, I thought that a Biographical information section would be more appropriate. It would be followed by as yet unwritten sections that would detail her work with Frank Zappa and Missing Persons. What do you think? Doc2234 ( talk) 00:05, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

<--Hey Agricola, I don't know. I see a couple of "weak keeps" from experienced editors, and a couple of "keeps" from relatively new editors, and I'm not impressed by any of them. The only strong keep from an experienced editor is from Turqoise themselves. I don't believe that this was the greatest closing I've ever seen, to put it mildly, but at the same time I'm sick of it: it's an autobiography of a non-notable person, period. However, Turqoise has already accused me of bias (in the first AfD they accused me of hating Croatians, or some such silly thing); this playing the victim mode is so irritating, and these hounding accusations so easily thrown around, that I don't feel like I want or should bring this up. I do believe that on further review the article itself won't stand up. I do thank you, though, for your level-headed and policy-oriented arguments, and I am impressed by your coolness under pressure.

With all due respect, I believe it is in the best interest of the Genre page if you would restrain yourself from such heavy-handed edits, especially when drastic revision was called for for years on the talk page.
In response to your denigration of the theorists under History as "non-notable," I am forced challenge your understanding of the concept of genre (which is what the page is for), since especially Bitzer and Devitt contributed heavily to aforementioned concept. Granted, rewrites are extremely warranted and welcome, but blanking entire sections and literally setting back the section over two millennia is not conducive to a thorough and professional page.
In essence, I ask you to, rather than erase sections, use whatever knowledge you have of the topic to rewrite and enhance or replace what has been written with something of comparable value and do not dismiss scholars as "non-notable" simply because they aren't household names. - Sanguination ( talk) 05:13, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Please pay attention to the revision history ( http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Kendrick_Meek&action=history) before tagging an IP as a vandal. Now people think this IP is racist. I was just trying to clarify the petition section. I guess somehow the section that was vandalized by 98.207.79.173 got reintroduced because Mcydoogle and I were making simultaneous edits.
Likewise, when you reverse vandalism, please look at *all* of the changes before reverting to a previous version and tagging the IP as a vandal. Wikipedia has a handy "compare selected versions" that you can use. If you're unfamiliar with it, try googling or something.
No I want you to apologize for suggesting I put it there intentionally.
You sent me a notice regarding providing references for Colonie High School informational page. I'm some what curious. There are NO references for ANY of the claims on the page, yet, it has content. How is this? I provided names of people for when I went to school there that I know made something special of themselves. I think I am within my right and experience to announce these individuals. Are you an Alumni? If you are so concerned about reference, can you explain to me on that page how you have Kenneth Olsen (b. 1984), Cellist in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra referencing the Founder of DEC? So, where is this reference? Wanna dig deeper? How about this: Jason Bittner never graduated from CCHS, but went to Linton High School in Schenectady. Are you sure you should be the person maintaining this page? And if you are going to enforce references on me, I better see some references for the rest of the claims on that page, or it should not be there. Or, are you only selectively enforcing references? Please let me know, and I appreciate if could restore my edits. I am actually making an effort to find out who from my high school made something of themselves beyond the norm. To leave off the name of a Super Bowl winner is laughable. I dont know about you, but I would want to know who from my school accomplished such a feat.

would be glad to discuss but clearly the proven communist/Soviet subversion dating to the 1920s caused the Cold War, not the other way around. But that really had nothing to do with McCarthy; he just was known for his crusade against State. He definitely was not the face of the Cold War as the article said as of noon 5/4/2010. Nixon was the face of the Cold War from his HUAC days to debating Kruschev (sic) in the 1950s to the recognition of China and the detente with Breshvev in the 70s.

Hello Drmies, I hope this is the right place to contact you. I would like to ask you not to delete the articles I just submitted because even though we are not signed to a major record label, I run my own label and Dark Iris is on the roster. The label is called Triple A Records. We are a notible act because even though we are not yet among the mainstream, we are finishing our debut album now which will have two singles that will be played on the radio across the US, UK and Canada and we are also sending in news articles about the band to notable music magazines such as Alternative Press, Kerrang and Metal Hammer. We have not send in our press releases yet, but will do so the instant we finish our debut album. Not only that, we already do have a bit of press coverage across the internet, most of it is just hard for to me to find to post right away. I know it's there because I've seen it. As far as physical album releases, we are working on a deal with the Hot Topic chain to have our CDs sold across the country, but is still pending as of now. So in some cases, I believe we are a notable band, and we're not just another up-and-coming local act. We are also going to apply for SXSW 2011, Warped Tour 2011, submit our music to Music Choice and our music videos to Fuse Channel and other like things. I would hold off on deleting our article right away, but if you do, please email a copy of all the articles you delete to darkiris@Live.com formatting and all. The articles I wish to keep are Dark Iris, Victims of Circumstance (Album), The Guardian (Album) and Larry Hansen. So if you do decide to delete all of those articles, please send them back to my email. I don't want my hours of work to go to waste. If you decide to delete these articles, I will update them and repost them when our albums have been released, the press kits have been released and when we are more 'out in the open' so to speak. But I would still prefer you not to delete the articles as we are an independent band. Thank you. - Larry52333 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Larry52333 ( talk • contribs) 03:56, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
Okay, I'm getting your talk page and Uther's page mixed up. Sorry. This is what I said on his talk if you had not already read it:
Quote: Alaska has a fairly small music scene, and I've been a part of it for about five years, and as so, I've been titled as a veteran of the music scene by fellow musicians, venues and promotors, so it's kinda hard to contest that claim regardless of my age. As for my Dark Iris article, we are a notable act because we have been covered in newspapers and local magazines and partially on the radio, but even more so this summer after our debut album official releases. And it clearly states in Wikipedia's Notability (Music) page that newspaper, magazine and radio coverage are good enough reasons to consider a band notable, as stated below:
"This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries"
If the statement above is true, then there is no reason why we can be considered otherwise a notable band. I reference all of our news articles, reviews, magazine articles, etc. as links on the reference section of the article. I'm not sure how many I have posted as of now, but I can think of a few more sources to post to the references section which I will do right now and will continue to do every time I find new press releases and other related objects. If this does not explain well enough why I think Dark Iris is a notable band, please tell me how this does not apply. Thank you. --Larry52333 (talk) 05:14, 7 May 2010 (UTC) :Unquote

Man, it feels like a court room up in here! haha Well, I see your point. It's valid. I put up the Craigslist ad as a reference to the keyboard player search thing. As for the ADN article, I did submit that myself, but I'm pretty sure a lot of what you read in press is submitted by the band themselves because how else are you going to get accurate information? The Make-a-Scene article is in existence, I suppose it isn't posted on their site. Well, when I linked that, I kinda just did that in a hurry so you wouldn't delete my article right away. Just wanted to put something on the table but apparently the article isn't present on their site. That's my bad. Anna Ricky is not a newspaper writer, but she is a blogger and she wrote a piece about us and like most blogs, her's probably has an RSS feed on it somewhere. I think that one should count as an eligible work. The Localspur thing I just came across when searching for some of the press releases I found on us. I couldn't find much, and that was the first time I seen that one so I just decided to post it in good faith. We are also on tons of lyric websites among other websites if that makes much of a difference in the matter. If you google us, use keywords like "Dark Iris" or "Dark Iris band" or "Dark Iris Alaska" or, here's the ones that come up with most results usually "Dark Iris Reborn" or "Dark Iris Victims of Circumstance" and you may come across more results and perhaps find something that you can consider eligible. If that doesn't work then I don't know what will right now. I think for what we've done in less than a year as a band, we've got a lot of promotion and a lot of press and we've been working hard since formation and we will continue to do so. If this article gets deleted now and you can userfy it for me, then I will just post it updated later after we get our stuff on the air across the country (which is guaranteed at this point) and when we get more press, quite possibly in Alternative Press or Kerrang or another notable magazine or news source. So hope we can keep our article, if all else fails, we will just repost after more has happened, but honestly I think we have done enough to be considered notable and having an article on Wikipedia will only increase our notability. So whatever happens happens I guess. Thanks. -- Larry52333 ( talk) 01:12, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Volker Martin, Mr. Hajo Sauer can give you evidence about the student public and reliable project Hirondelles. Next week from Saigon (or we will ask one of student colleagues tomorrow, or Mr. Hajo Sauer???) can paste the workshop curiculum of the symposium. We designed 8 workshops for Wednesday, 1st December 2010. Prof. Steffen Lehmann is the Chairman, Prof. Volker Martin is the Vice Chairman, the ministry of construction is the official sponsor, as well as the ministry of natural resources and environment. NPOs like ENDA and Green Building Council Vietnam, as hopefully LEED from US will attend the symposium. We started the first round table with highest scientiest and goverment people and NPOs.

Hey Doc, could you help cleanse the contribution history of Sinsen ( talk · contribs) / Sen45 ( talk · contribs) / Senindia ( talk · contribs) of POV? I tried before, but couldn't finish it up, and the socks haven't made matters easy either. The chap makes up things in favor of Erode and populates many articles with such crap, sometimes he uses real refs to say things that they don't say. e.g. In Erode he says that it's the fastest growing urban region in south India, while the ref states in Tamil Nadu; the source itself is a bit suspect as they are saying why they're investing in that location and more importantly it doesn't say how it's the fastest growing (a high % for a small area shouldn't probably qualify!) and so on. I'm quite tied up these days, and I figured you've spent some time with this chap, you might be interested in a doing a little more, no? cheers. — Spaceman Spiff 16:15, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

I think you will find that the information I added is directly quoted from the Wikipedia entry on Peter Mandelson, and is referenced in the body of that article. If there is any question of the accuracy of the information, I would suggest you raise the issue with the originator of the content in the aforementioned article. I refute the controversy you attach to the information - reading the article on Peter Mandelson will clarify the issue for you and you may feel that the information is worth reinstating. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.44.71.101 ( talk) 14:55, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

I have a question and I was wondering if the all knowing Drmies could answer it. I was reading through China Airlines Flight 006 and I noticed something odd about the picture. Looking at the image you see the airplane pulling to the left of the screen. Yet when you click on the image to bring up the wiki page ( Chinaair006.png) you see a completely different image of the plane in a nose dive.
It looks like there is a glitch in the wiki page or maybe the thumbnail. Whenever you link to Chinaair006.png, the thumbnail looks like the old version but when you click the image it brings you to the new version.
I've never seen anything like this before and I was wondering if you have. -- Triesault ( talk) 21:37, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

The reasons I reverted was, 1) there are lists like this on every television station page, 2) all these names can be verified by looking at the station's website under their Bios or Staff page and 3) removing any large amount of information from the page would require a consensus with other users at WP:TVS, the main Wikiproject for Television Stations. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 19:41, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

I looked at that discussion about a digital channel that the editor apparently had first-hand experience with and you didn't know jack about. You did act immature, edit warring over something you had no evidence for. Seriously, duh? Now that's immature. So here's the thing: an editor has a legitimate issue with you, you refuse mediation, you asked the user not to post on your talk page, and when they do ('cause they have no other place to discuss matters with you) you cry foul and twist an admin's arm into rebuking them. Two can play at that: stay away from my talk page. You can look, but you can't touch. OK? And if you too, I'll try and cozy up to someone and whine. (Yes, that's what it's called.)

I wanted to thank you for two things. You mentioned in an edit summary that the order of references using my preferred method didn't matter. Well, even though I knew this, for some reason I had gone out of my way to list them in the order in which they appeared in the article. Your comment got me thinking, and in the latest article I created, I listed the refs in alphabetical order by their names, which I think is much more logical. And secondly... for five wikiyears, I had never submitted an article for DYK. But your DYK work inspired me to finally go for it, with the above-mentioned article. I was surprised at how quickly it happened. Two days after I nominated it, there was my first DYK on the main page. So, thanks for the inspiration! MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 22:14, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi Drmies, I noticed that you've already warned the user 173.171.234.39 regarding their contributions to the article Lamborghini. I believe this user has now registered themselves under the name User:CHARLES400GT, and is now dedicated to ensuring that the content in the Lamborghini article is biased towards declaring Lamborghini's early cars as "perfect", under the absurd justification that such statements are encyclopedic because Ferruccio Lamborghini himself committed them to writing. As User:SamBlob has not answered back to my message to him, I was hoping I could call your attention to this matter, so we may decide whether we need to elevate this issue further.

Hi, I had told you that I should start stalking you more, and today I came across this edit. I hope you don't think of me whenever you see that anyone has "passed away"! I was amused by the "coyedit" irony. The funny thing about "ironic" is how frequently people misuse the word, where "coincidental" is often more appropriate. I once started mockingly using the word in situations where it clearly was not correct, as a comic tribute to those who unintentionally misuse it. But then it occurred to me... what if that's what all those other people are doing? Well, there I go prattling on again, and this time I haven't even been drinking, so I have no excuse.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

I wish there was a way to do March justice, showing his torment and also his great humanity, but I do not think it will ever be done - the Simmonds biography might as well have included his grocery lists and hospital charts (it does have great researched material and depth lacking in most bios), but it suffers from the lack of a (decent) editor and an emotional connection that is sorely needed.
There is not much renewed interest in him; even with the Company K movie and short bio/docu (although, there was that Bad Seed remake planned a few years back). I hate that he may be doomed to fall into the shadow of less worthy folks...anyway, thanks again; if you have not seen the movie or docu, I have them both on DVD, and am willing to share - just ask - Diarmada 06:26, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

I took that spammy piece [7] and made it something much more neutral and encyclopedic. [8] And, not finding any about acting anywhere other than on his own website(s), I removed all the acting stuff as unverifiable... sticking only to facts as could be cited. It appears his work is definitely of some note in his industry, as they always speak about his work and quote him, [9] and he has found his way into numerous books as a "paragon" or "guru" in his field. [10] What say? Worth a keep for further improvement, with a very very careful watch-eye so the spam does not return? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:09, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
I really need to keep a closer eye on your contributions. I just discovered this. Thanks for the offer of a beer. That's mighty kind of you. I'm envious of the wide variety of beers you seem to have sampled. My limited experience in that field pales in comparison.
BTW, I had previously issued you a very premature welcome back, and now that you're apparently really back, I'll wish you a very belated welcome back. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 06:44, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
I did notice that other edit summary after leaving the above note, but by then I was too tired to write. While adding a DEFAULTSORT certainly is my type of edit, that specific one actually wasn't, as I almost always avoid adding sort keys for any article where the subject's name looks like it might be Arabic, Chinese, or Icelandic (even if they're Swedish).
Have a fun 4th! And with all that fancy beer plus inflatable dinosaurs, I'm sure you will. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 19:27, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about that. The reason I removed that "Pakistan's master of progressive rock" part was due to such claims not usually being fit for wikipedia. Come to think of it, I probably did not think the edit over as much as I should have, especially since it is actually sourced. Do you think that sentence is in harmony with the neutral point of view policy on wikipedia. It could be, though, because it is stating that someone said it as such (with a citation) instead of actually passing it off as fact. Happy editing.

I just read this article. Interesting - it shed light on the mythological context for something that happens in a novel I'm reading now, Small Favor.

Hello Drmies, I'm really sorry. It was hard for me to understand Wikipedia's guidelines. Can you please tell me why does there have to be limit of info for plot? What's total amount of word has to be in plot? I want to know clearly so I don't disrupt editing. When I look at my user talk page, I reply to messages. After I reply, I delete them. Is it okay for me to delete them after I reply? If I'm blocked from editing, then is it possible to send messages to you or other user talk pages. If it's possible, then how do I do it? Hope I'm not vandalizing your talk page. Again, why's it bad to put alot of info in plot? I type every detail for movie, because some people want to know everything that happens in film.

It appears that Geotomez is the author of the book that he cites. The book is self-published, and I have not yet found any reviews of it. He is correct that the founding date was 1926. I must have mistyped it originally. "The J.R.S. Foundation" but not "The J.R.S.

I'll have to check out a Grand Cru sometime, although the Triple Imperiale intrigues me with its 10% alcohol. I see that you also edited Regenboog Brewery, which I mention only because the similar word "regenbogen" is my favorite German word. [I only know the word because it was included in the title of a painting I saw in Munich's Alte Pinakothek (or was it the Neue Pinakothek?)] It's good to know that I'm not the only one who is sometimes guilty of DWI (doing Wiki intoxicated).

Could you possibly sidle over to my talk page and take a quick look at a Biographical information section that I'm working on for the Dale Bozzio page? It would replace her Career section. Also, the Personal life section would be deleted.

It would be followed by as yet unwritten sections that would detail her work with Frank Zappa and Missing Persons. What do you think? Doc2234 ( talk) 00:05, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

<--Hey Agricola, I don't know. I see a couple of "weak keeps" from experienced editors, and a couple of "keeps" from relatively new editors, and I'm not impressed by any of them. The only strong keep from an experienced editor is from Turqoise themselves. I don't believe that this was the greatest closing I've ever seen, to put it mildly, but at the same time I'm sick of it: it's an autobiography of a non-notable person, period. However, Turqoise has already accused me of bias (in the first AfD they accused me of hating Croatians, or some such silly thing); this playing the victim mode is so irritating, and these hounding accusations so easily thrown around, that I don't feel like I want or should bring this up. I do believe that on further review the article itself won't stand up. I do thank you, though, for your level-headed and policy-oriented arguments, and I am impressed by your coolness under pressure.

With all due respect, I believe it is in the best interest of the Genre page if you would restrain yourself from such heavy-handed edits, especially when drastic revision was called for for years on the talk page.
In response to your denigration of the theorists under History as "non-notable," I am forced challenge your understanding of the concept of genre (which is what the page is for), since especially Bitzer and Devitt contributed heavily to aforementioned concept. Granted, rewrites are extremely warranted and welcome, but blanking entire sections and literally setting back the section over two millennia is not conducive to a thorough and professional page.
In essence, I ask you to, rather than erase sections, use whatever knowledge you have of the topic to rewrite and enhance or replace what has been written with something of comparable value and do not dismiss scholars as "non-notable" simply because they aren't household names. - Sanguination ( talk) 05:13, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Please pay attention to the revision history ( http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Kendrick_Meek&action=history) before tagging an IP as a vandal. Now people think this IP is racist. I was just trying to clarify the petition section. I guess somehow the section that was vandalized by 98.207.79.173 got reintroduced because Mcydoogle and I were making simultaneous edits.
Likewise, when you reverse vandalism, please look at *all* of the changes before reverting to a previous version and tagging the IP as a vandal. Wikipedia has a handy "compare selected versions" that you can use. If you're unfamiliar with it, try googling or something.
No I want you to apologize for suggesting I put it there intentionally.
You sent me a notice regarding providing references for Colonie High School informational page. I'm some what curious. There are NO references for ANY of the claims on the page, yet, it has content. How is this? I provided names of people for when I went to school there that I know made something special of themselves. I think I am within my right and experience to announce these individuals. Are you an Alumni? If you are so concerned about reference, can you explain to me on that page how you have Kenneth Olsen (b. 1984), Cellist in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra referencing the Founder of DEC? So, where is this reference? Wanna dig deeper? How about this: Jason Bittner never graduated from CCHS, but went to Linton High School in Schenectady. Are you sure you should be the person maintaining this page? And if you are going to enforce references on me, I better see some references for the rest of the claims on that page, or it should not be there. Or, are you only selectively enforcing references? Please let me know, and I appreciate if could restore my edits. I am actually making an effort to find out who from my high school made something of themselves beyond the norm. To leave off the name of a Super Bowl winner is laughable. I dont know about you, but I would want to know who from my school accomplished such a feat.

would be glad to discuss but clearly the proven communist/Soviet subversion dating to the 1920s caused the Cold War, not the other way around. But that really had nothing to do with McCarthy; he just was known for his crusade against State. He definitely was not the face of the Cold War as the article said as of noon 5/4/2010. Nixon was the face of the Cold War from his HUAC days to debating Kruschev (sic) in the 1950s to the recognition of China and the detente with Breshvev in the 70s.

Hello Drmies, I hope this is the right place to contact you. I would like to ask you not to delete the articles I just submitted because even though we are not signed to a major record label, I run my own label and Dark Iris is on the roster. The label is called Triple A Records. We are a notible act because even though we are not yet among the mainstream, we are finishing our debut album now which will have two singles that will be played on the radio across the US, UK and Canada and we are also sending in news articles about the band to notable music magazines such as Alternative Press, Kerrang and Metal Hammer. We have not send in our press releases yet, but will do so the instant we finish our debut album. Not only that, we already do have a bit of press coverage across the internet, most of it is just hard for to me to find to post right away. I know it's there because I've seen it. As far as physical album releases, we are working on a deal with the Hot Topic chain to have our CDs sold across the country, but is still pending as of now. So in some cases, I believe we are a notable band, and we're not just another up-and-coming local act. We are also going to apply for SXSW 2011, Warped Tour 2011, submit our music to Music Choice and our music videos to Fuse Channel and other like things. I would hold off on deleting our article right away, but if you do, please email a copy of all the articles you delete to darkiris@Live.com formatting and all. The articles I wish to keep are Dark Iris, Victims of Circumstance (Album), The Guardian (Album) and Larry Hansen. So if you do decide to delete all of those articles, please send them back to my email. I don't want my hours of work to go to waste. If you decide to delete these articles, I will update them and repost them when our albums have been released, the press kits have been released and when we are more 'out in the open' so to speak. But I would still prefer you not to delete the articles as we are an independent band. Thank you. - Larry52333 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Larry52333 ( talk • contribs) 03:56, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
Okay, I'm getting your talk page and Uther's page mixed up. Sorry. This is what I said on his talk if you had not already read it:
Quote: Alaska has a fairly small music scene, and I've been a part of it for about five years, and as so, I've been titled as a veteran of the music scene by fellow musicians, venues and promotors, so it's kinda hard to contest that claim regardless of my age. As for my Dark Iris article, we are a notable act because we have been covered in newspapers and local magazines and partially on the radio, but even more so this summer after our debut album official releases. And it clearly states in Wikipedia's Notability (Music) page that newspaper, magazine and radio coverage are good enough reasons to consider a band notable, as stated below:
"This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries"
If the statement above is true, then there is no reason why we can be considered otherwise a notable band. I reference all of our news articles, reviews, magazine articles, etc. as links on the reference section of the article. I'm not sure how many I have posted as of now, but I can think of a few more sources to post to the references section which I will do right now and will continue to do every time I find new press releases and other related objects. If this does not explain well enough why I think Dark Iris is a notable band, please tell me how this does not apply. Thank you. --Larry52333 (talk) 05:14, 7 May 2010 (UTC) :Unquote
Now if none of this is correct and the band is not notable regardless of the forementioned press releases and news releases then at least userfy my work as I requested before and I will ask Uther the same request if all else fails. Thank you. -- Larry52333 ( talk) 05:39, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but you're clutching at straws here: there isn't a single article listed that would qualify as significant in-depth discussion published in an independent reliable source. Drmies ( talk) 14:31, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
Man, it feels like a court room up in here! haha Well, I see your point. It's valid. I put up the Craigslist ad as a reference to the keyboard player search thing. As for the ADN article, I did submit that myself, but I'm pretty sure a lot of what you read in press is submitted by the band themselves because how else are you going to get accurate information? The Make-a-Scene article is in existence, I suppose it isn't posted on their site. Well, when I linked that, I kinda just did that in a hurry so you wouldn't delete my article right away. Just wanted to put something on the table but apparently the article isn't present on their site. That's my bad. Anna Ricky is not a newspaper writer, but she is a blogger and she wrote a piece about us and like most blogs, her's probably has an RSS feed on it somewhere. I think that one should count as an eligible work. The Localspur thing I just came across when searching for some of the press releases I found on us. I couldn't find much, and that was the first time I seen that one so I just decided to post it in good faith. We are also on tons of lyric websites among other websites if that makes much of a difference in the matter. If you google us, use keywords like "Dark Iris" or "Dark Iris band" or "Dark Iris Alaska" or, here's the ones that come up with most results usually "Dark Iris Reborn" or "Dark Iris Victims of Circumstance" and you may come across more results and perhaps find something that you can consider eligible. If that doesn't work then I don't know what will right now. I think for what we've done in less than a year as a band, we've got a lot of promotion and a lot of press and we've been working hard since formation and we will continue to do so. If this article gets deleted now and you can userfy it for me, then I will just post it updated later after we get our stuff on the air across the country (which is guaranteed at this point) and when we get more press, quite possibly in Alternative Press or Kerrang or another notable magazine or news source. So hope we can keep our article, if all else fails, we will just repost after more has happened, but honestly I think we have done enough to be considered notable and having an article on Wikipedia will only increase our notability. So whatever happens happens I guess. Thanks. -- Larry52333 ( talk) 01:12, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Dear Drmies, all students in Germany and Vietnam (in Vietnam they will slepp now and we have last lectures in Germany and I have to prepare my flight to Saigon) in turmoil. Prof.em. Volker Martin, Mr. Hajo Sauer can give you evidence about the student public and reliable project Hirondelles. Next week from Saigon (or we will ask one of student colleagues tomorrow, or Mr. Hajo Sauer???) can paste the workshop curiculum of the symposium. We designed 8 workshops for Wednesday, 1st December 2010. Prof. Steffen Lehmann is the Chairman, Prof. Volker Martin is the Vice Chairman, the ministry of construction is the official sponsor, as well as the ministry of natural resources and environment. NPOs like ENDA and Green Building Council Vietnam, as hopefully LEED from US will attend the symposium. We started the first round table with highest scientiest and goverment people and NPOs. IFHP-International Federation of Housing and Planning is with us. It will be the biggest and most science based symposium about green building design and clean development in Vietnam - a symposium made from students, examiness together with our professors. Our English skills are so la la, but we are all better engineers. This Wiki site is for us a unique chance to get public data for all students, examinees. If you delete the file, it will be for no student understandable. Hirondelles is the first huge project in min 3 countries. Actually the Australian in the start-up position..... we are faster.
Volker Martin and Hajo Sauer expect always an open name in the net, it´s our code of ethic. We all use our real names and show where we study.

Hey Doc, could you help cleanse the contribution history of Sinsen ( talk · contribs) / Sen45 ( talk · contribs) / Senindia ( talk · contribs) of POV? I tried before, but couldn't finish it up, and the socks haven't made matters easy either. The chap makes up things in favor of Erode and populates many articles with such crap, sometimes he uses real refs to say things that they don't say. e.g. In Erode he says that it's the fastest growing urban region in south India, while the ref states in Tamil Nadu; the source itself is a bit suspect as they are saying why they're investing in that location and more importantly it doesn't say how it's the fastest growing (a high % for a small area shouldn't probably qualify!) and so on. I'm quite tied up these days, and I figured you've spent some time with this chap, you might be interested in a doing a little more, no? cheers. — Spaceman Spiff 16:15, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

I think you will find that the information I added is directly quoted from the Wikipedia entry on Peter Mandelson, and is referenced in the body of that article. If there is any question of the accuracy of the information, I would suggest you raise the issue with the originator of the content in the aforementioned article. I refute the controversy you attach to the information - reading the article on Peter Mandelson will clarify the issue for you and you may feel that the information is worth reinstating. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.44.71.101 ( talk) 14:55, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

I have a question and I was wondering if the all knowing Drmies could answer it. I was reading through China Airlines Flight 006 and I noticed something odd about the picture. Looking at the image you see the airplane pulling to the left of the screen. Yet when you click on the image to bring up the wiki page ( Chinaair006.png) you see a completely different image of the plane in a nose dive.
It looks like there is a glitch in the wiki page or maybe the thumbnail. Whenever you link to Chinaair006.png, the thumbnail looks like the old version but when you click the image it brings you to the new version.
I've never seen anything like this before and I was wondering if you have. -- Triesault ( talk) 21:37, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

The reasons I reverted was, 1) there are lists like this on every television station page, 2) all these names can be verified by looking at the station's website under their Bios or Staff page and 3) removing any large amount of information from the page would require a consensus with other users at WP:TVS, the main Wikiproject for Television Stations. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 19:41, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

I looked at that discussion about a digital channel that the editor apparently had first-hand experience with and you didn't know jack about. You did act immature, edit warring over something you had no evidence for. Seriously, duh? Now that's immature. So here's the thing: an editor has a legitimate issue with you, you refuse mediation, you asked the user not to post on your talk page, and when they do ('cause they have no other place to discuss matters with you) you cry foul and twist an admin's arm into rebuking them. Two can play at that: stay away from my talk page. You can look, but you can't touch. OK? And if you too, I'll try and cozy up to someone and whine. (Yes, that's what it's called.)

I wanted to thank you for two things. You mentioned in an edit summary that the order of references using my preferred method didn't matter.

Your comment got me thinking, and in the latest article I created, I listed the refs in alphabetical order by their names, which I think is much more logical. And secondly... for five wikiyears, I had never submitted an article for DYK. But your DYK work inspired me to finally go for it, with the above-mentioned article.

Hi Drmies, I noticed that you've already warned the user 173.171.234.39 regarding their contributions to the article Lamborghini. I believe this user has now registered themselves under the name User:CHARLES400GT, and is now dedicated to ensuring that the content in the Lamborghini article is biased towards declaring Lamborghini's early cars as "perfect", under the absurd justification that such statements are encyclopedic because Ferruccio Lamborghini himself committed them to writing.

Hi, I had told you that I should start stalking you more, and today I came across this edit. I hope you don't think of me whenever you see that anyone has "passed away"! I was amused by the "coyedit" irony. The funny thing about "ironic" is how frequently people misuse the word, where "coincidental" is often more appropriate. I once started mockingly using the word in situations where it clearly was not correct, as a comic tribute to those who unintentionally misuse it. But then it occurred to me... what if that's what all those other people are doing? Well, there I go prattling on again, and this time I haven't even been drinking, so I have no excuse.

Hi Drmies, I wonder if you might have any thoughts on the discussions taking place on my talk page and Talk:Excalibur. I am attempting to broker a compromise, but it's not going very well. Any thoughts? Ladyof Shalott 15:04, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi, have you voted yet? Vote for one you like best - more participation makes the results better I think. Funny, you're also someone without login unification - isn't that annoying to always have to login to every project separately? Best Hekerui ( talk) 21:57, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. The Rambling Man ( talk) 17:21, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Bahhhhh....Fixed (I think)...much thanks. -- kelapstick ( talk) 23:45, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
I champion your additions to the William March page...I got injured and was unable to finish the work, but it makes me feel much better to know someone (who cares) is adding material and such...I will hopefully be doing some more work in the near future, as my condition has leveled off a wee bit...Thanks for your work! - Dia —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diarmada ( talk • contribs) 20:55, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
I wish there was a way to do March justice, showing his torment and also his great humanity, but I do not think it will ever be done - the Simmonds biography might as well have included his grocery lists and hospital charts (it does have great researched material and depth lacking in most bios), but it suffers from the lack of a (decent) editor and an emotional connection that is sorely needed.
There is not much renewed interest in him; even with the Company K movie and short bio/docu (although, there was that Bad Seed remake planned a few years back). I hate that he may be doomed to fall into the shadow of less worthy folks...anyway, thanks again; if you have not seen the movie or docu, I have them both on DVD, and am willing to share - just ask - Diarmada 06:26, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Hey, stop adding Point of Views to gain attention. Spanish is no longer spoken in the Philippines. It was abolished during the government of Corazon Aquino in 1987. Wether you like it or not. Spanish is dead and one speaks these language anymore and that's a fact.
Thanks for the help on my new article. BTW if what this guy says is true then President Obama should abolish "four letter words" from the USA, as if it was that easy. :-) Borock ( talk) 15:01, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello,
I am letting you know that Terese Nielsen has been nominated for deletion again, as part of a series of AFDs based on the deletion nomination of List of Magic: The Gathering artists, as you participated in the previous AFD for Terese Nielsen. 204.153.84.10 ( talk) 19:37, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello! I was wondering if you could translate the Netherlands section to this article. I saw it on a documentary the other night and I was astounded at the scale of the greenhouses in the Netherlands. In fact it may be worth having its own article. ANyway can you translate the section?

Lovely job. Thanks! Dr. Blofeld White cat 19:52, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
Last November, you added a section entitled "Disputes after her death" to the Susan B. Anthony page, a section about Anthony's words being co-opted by FFL to further their aims. That section was removed by a recent editor, and FFL was given more of a voice, more weight. I'm taking a stab at returning the information you supplied, augmented, so please keep an eye on the page to see how I fare. Binksternet ( talk) 01:49, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Marco Motta. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Juve and Udinese did not announced the deal, and Motta did not having a medical test yet, means the deal is not completed. Which means there is no relible source to support he is a Juve player.

Whew... what a lot a fluff. Looking at what you nominated, I applaud your good sense. But as it was good practice for me and a decent challenge... I took that spammy piece [7] and made it something much more neutral and encyclopedic. [8] And, not finding any about acting anywhere other than on his own website(s), I removed all the acting stuff as unverifiable... sticking only to facts as could be cited. It appears his work is definitely of some note in his industry, as they always speak about his work and quote him, [9] and he has found his way into numerous books as a "paragon" or "guru" in his field. [10] What say? Worth a keep for further improvement, with a very very careful watch-eye so the spam does not return? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 01:09, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
I really need to keep a closer eye on your contributions. I just discovered this. Thanks for the offer of a beer. That's mighty kind of you. I'm envious of the wide variety of beers you seem to have sampled. My limited experience in that field pales in comparison.
BTW, I had previously issued you a very premature welcome back, and now that you're apparently really back, I'll wish you a very belated welcome back. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 06:44, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
I did notice that other edit summary after leaving the above note, but by then I was too tired to write. While adding a DEFAULTSORT certainly is my type of edit, that specific one actually wasn't, as I almost always avoid adding sort keys for any article where the subject's name looks like it might be Arabic, Chinese, or Icelandic (even if they're Swedish).
Have a fun 4th! And with all that fancy beer plus inflatable dinosaurs, I'm sure you will. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 19:27, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
The article List of words having different meanings in Spain and Latin America has been submitted to the Articles for deletion process.
As you were involved in the previous deletion discussion for this article, I thought I would inform you of the new discussion;

I am disturbed by your removal of so much sourced content. The ConsumerAffairs site appears reliable, as does the Post-Standard article. Savidan 16:28, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi there my friend, VASCO here,
2010 FIFA World Cup over, you came close to the glory, alas it was not to be...My team? I had no national team in this tournament ( Pepe, Liédson, Deco). Now, for the title of my message: one more time, this absolutely cold-hearted mean machine that answers to the name of User:Matthew hk has done it again (speaking about this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Drmies#new_signing), and you said you were still hoping for an excuse and he basically said "You deserve the warning"? What on earth is this?!?!?
Years ago, when i was editing anon, got two of these warnings, NO apologies of course. This user also has ZERO knowledge of English, with all due respect (for most users) what is he doing editing here? Hope you fare well on your vacations (now on in a few weeks, and if you already had them, hope they were spectacular), keep it up, from Portugal - -- Vasco Amaral ( talk) 01:43, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about that. The reason I removed that "Pakistan's master of progressive rock" part was due to such claims not usually being fit for wikipedia. Come to think of it, I probably did not think the edit over as much as I should have, especially since it is actually sourced. Do you think that sentence is in harmony with the neutral point of view policy on wikipedia. It could be, though, because it is stating that someone said it as such (with a citation) instead of actually passing it off as fact. Happy editing.

I was going to try discussing this with you first, but since you seem determined to hound me and push your POV at every opportunity I guess well have to go straight to ANI. Sucks really, but you leave me no choice. TJ Black ( talk) 06:04, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
