Smash!
You've been
squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.
This might be of interest to you. Bejinhan talks 02:29, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
In answer to your question on my talk page; I do not re-create the redirect because in my opinion it is not appropriate to do so. If you wish to do so then feel free, and we will see if it raises objections. But I do not feel that editors would expect this redirect to be meaningful, or useful. -- Anthony.bradbury "talk" 21:49, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
Works for me. The issue I see is that article is still on the "pending" list. I'm trying to get it to go to the "declined" list. Any other way of doing that? Manually perhaps? N419 BH 03:13, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
Please justify your deletion of this page. You said it is not significantly different from what was posted before - this is untrue. It experienced substantial changes and input from user N419BH. He deleted most of the body and helped edit out a lot of the voice issues. He requested 4-5 addition citations which I provided and is still working on additional newscoverage. Any further "substantial" difference in the article now would make it a complete fabrication. You have hamstrung the discussion. ChildrenOfLight ( talk) 18:35, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

May I call your attention to this: [1]. This guy is a prolific sockpuppeteer. Beyond the accounts listed on the AIV report, he's used dozens of IP and several other accounts. No amount of assurance from him that he'll "contribute constructively, heed all warnings, not create any new accounts" is worth a hill of beans - he's already under at least a dozen indefinite blocks.

I found your comment on my RfA to be rather insulting. I had reviewed the most recent RfA's prior to filing my own, and I concluded that based on those I had a chance of passing. Of the 2 most recent successful RfA's (in late July), two only had about 5000 edits, maybe a few hundred more, which wasn't that far off from mine. Of the 3 unsuccessful RfA's in August, one admitted that he was not a very active contributor, another only had a few hundred edits, and a third, although being a good contributor to Wikipedia, didn't have experience in areas where admin tools are needed. Of the unsuccessful RfA's in late July, two only had a few hundred edits, one had under 2000 edits and another, though a good candidate, had a few policy knowledge issues. Based on that information, I thought that I was in much better shape than the unsuccessful RfA's, and in just about as good shape as some of the most recent successful RfA's, maybe a little below their level. However, instead of noting that, you jumped to the conclusion that I don't pay attention to the RfA's, when I don't think that it's fair to put me on the same level as a person who only has a few hundred edits or only puts in a few dozen edits a month. -- Slon02 ( talk) 02:28, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Good job with this article. I was surprised to see it expanded to GA. This is a very helpful expansion for the project. It is rare that those types of articles are even updated, let alone raised to GA status.-- Will C 09:07, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Can you tell me why you changed the names of these two articles - 'WW1 Egyptian Labour Corps' and 'WW1 Egyptian Camel Transport Corps' because it seems to me that taking out 'WW1' cuts out the strong identity these corps had with that war. Neither of these corps operated outside that context.

Hi Fetchcomms, you removed the wikilink to mudra from the begining of the article but did not substitute another link later in the article. Omission or intention? Trev M ~ 08:13, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for making the edit to Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Clash 2010. But could you make the protection template large, please? The small template is best used for pages with indefinite protection, because it does not display the reason for or duration of the protection. On a page that has been temporarily protected, editors may be less familiar with protection and the information provided by the large template is of greater concern to them. -- Bsherr ( talk) 18:38, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
I see that Chzz is on wikibreak. A few months ago, he did some work at WP:FEED in which I played a small role. He was doing much of the heavy lifting, but he mentioned that some of the technical work was being done by someone else - and I have a vague recollection it was you.
Of course the background is irrelevant if you can answer my question.
I'm working on a possible proposal related to clerkship at RfPP (still very drafty). One of the aspects of the proposal is a desire to create a template with a button that would do nothing is pressed by an non-sysop editor, but would do something (specifically, Page protection or unprotection) if pushed by a sysop. I don't know whether this is technically easy or difficult. Do you have an opinion? It isn't a critical aspect of the proposal, the concept could work without it, but I think it would be a nice touch if it worked.
Of course, any comments you have on the overall proposal would be welcome.-- SPhilbrick T 01:39, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed Your judgment as "needs work to remove OR and this is anti-Korean", However, You seems to have overlooked one important fact I think.
You should have paid attention to these comments that "Most Korean regards that those cites and references are abnormal. There's no relation with Nazi." or "The whole racial purity of Koreans isn't even 100% approved by the today's public but as a reaction to Japanese racial purity in the past and today's political mentality stemmed from the Cold War.".
You should get rid of the prejudice that delete position just emphasized the anti-Korean.-- Historiographer ( talk) 02:41, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

While I appreciate the work that you are doing on Wikipedia to ensure compliance with copyright requirements, two images have been prematurely deleted by this account using Twinkle. I'm assuming this is simply a random oversight. Deletion log states the following:
The policy clearly states:
The permission notes on the uploaded images clearly stated that a letter of permission is forthcoming, in compliance with Image policy. Additionally, notification has not been made to the uploader, nor has a period of seven days commenced since any possible notification.

Hi Fetchcomms, Off2riorob is not being co-operative and insists that the Vote Comment guidelines remain unchanged even though they make no grammatical sense, he even went so far as to issue a 3RR warning even though the revert/undo function was not used.

Fetch I was wondering if you could give me some advice on a problem with the Modern didgeridoo designs article. I was mid-stride in the process of writing the article and someone did a AfD tag, not knowing where I was heading with it. It's prompted me to move a bit faster, and what I've done is taken a section on modern didgeridoo innovation in the original main Didgeridoo article, and merged it into the Modern didgeridoo designs article, and I've also changed the title of the Didgeridoo article to Didgeridoo (traditional) to reflect a delineation between authentic traditional and modern designs. This also helps delineate traditional Indigenous Australians cultural aspects of the didgeridoo, from some of the modern design features. I think it's a neat and technical solution to a problem. But I would appreciate any comments. John Moss ( talk) 12:46, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

I just don't understand nominating sections of my userspace for deletion, based solely on my inactivity. It was really disappointing to log in and discover that you had done so. In the past I have been a very productive editor, and have contributed anonymously to the encyclopedia over the past couple of years. The suggestion that I am some sort of deadweight to the project and using it for social networking purposes is extremely offensive.
Thank you for closing this difficult AfD. In your closing statement, you wrote "...the sources are particularly helpful in establishing notability or even just being particularly reliable". Shouldn't it be "...the sources are not particularly helpful in establishing notability or even just being particularly reliable"? Cunard ( talk) 04:18, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Fetchcomms, You welcolmed me when I joined wikipedia and I tried to contact you previously. Chzz answered on your behalfand gave me the advice that I should get more experience with editting. That is fair enough and I thank them for their effort.
The issue is that Tree training is a hobby of mine and I have been trying to do it for several years with out much success so I was happy when I found the article on wiki.
1 In trying to get infomation, as an end user of wiki, I have been drawn into the wiki debate. I have been reading the article for months before I made a comment. The article has completely changed over that time. To me the article centres around the word arborsculpture and the creator of the word and other more important artists downgraded.
2. I believe Slowart/ Grisium and Richart Reams are the same person.
3. Photos have been removed and not put back.eg Becky's mirror, because one editor does not like the background. This fantastic piece of work is ignored when it is a world first as it has trained branches as well as roots.
4. A group of editors seem to ignore all the rules and edit as one.
5. I have asked questions and only receive scarcasism, and a sock puppet accusation. I have tried editing following admin editors advice only to have my edits reverted.I have been told to go away by Slowart and also told my talk page is not for discussion.
There is no actual name for this artform. It is just emerging. Richard reames brands other artists with his label No body in the English speaking world accepts this, as each artist has their individual methods and names. eg ChistopherCattle (Grown Up furniture) is far more significant than Arborsculpture as he can grow repeatedly even and balancedpieces . His citations have been removed. Arborsculpture is a marketing funnel that leads to Richard Reams, a book and other products.Google it and see. At present the Tree shaping title is locked. Blackash is having little success but has done excellent work and edits on content but is continually accused of COI What can I do ? Pleasegive me some advice.

Hi, Fetch! Thank you for your help at ani re my name-jumping band spam friend. I really appreciate it. I did want to ask a follow-up question to your post saying that SunHawken (contribs) created the first instance of the boomerang "Young Jonii" article. I'm posting my question here, rather than within the ANI thread because I expect there's a simple answer, and I don't want to clutter up the thread there if I can help it. Anyway, I don't understand how SunHawken could have created the article. I think I've set my interface to display all timestamps I see in UTC, and from what I'm seeing SunHawken's first-ever edit was at 15:59 25 August 2010 (UTC). From the deletion history box that I see at the top of this page I get the following:
Unless my time displays aren't all showing up in UTC, it looks to me like SunHawken's first-ever edit occurred after the first instance of "Young Jonii" was deleted. I know you can see pages I can't, so the error's probably on my side, but can you help me figure out what's going on? Figure out what I might be missing? Now I really am going offline for awhile, but I'll watchlist this page and check back soon. Thanks again, – OhioStandard ( talk) 16:32, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks again for the above: I wonder if you'd be able to take a look back at this same ANI thread and use your browser search function to find the phrase "I've undertaken all the cleanup steps that I can". The section that phrase occurs in details what admin intervention is still needed to close the matter. No worries if you're too busy, but I thought you wouldn't mind if I asked. Also, I hope it was okay to post in this section; I thought it would clutter up your talk page a bit less. Best, – OhioStandard ( talk) 01:56, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

We have our final eight! The best of luck to those who remain. A bumper newsletter this week as we start our home straight.
We say goodbye to the six who fell at the final hurdle. Geschichte ( submissions) only just missed out on a place in the final eight. Resolute ( submissions) was not far behind. Candlewicke ( submissions) was awarded top points for in the news this round. Gary King ( submissions) contributed a variety of did you know articles. Suomi Finland 2009 ( submissions) said "I'm surprised to have survived so far into the competition", but was extactic to see Finland in the semi-finals. Arsenikk ( submissions) did not score this round, but has scored highly in previous rounds. We also say goodbye to Ian Rose ( submissions), who withdrew earlier this month after spending six weeks overseas. Anyone interested in this round's results can see them here and here. Thank you to Stone ( submissions) for these.
Signups for next year's competition are now open. Planning is ongoing, with a key discussion about judges for next year open. Discussion about how next year's scoring will work is ongoing, and thoughts are more than welcome at Wikipedia talk:WikiCup/Scoring. Also, TonyTheTiger is compiling some information and statistics on the finalists here- the final eight are encouraged to add themselves to the list.
Our final eight will play it out for two months, after which we will know 2010's WikiCup winner, and a variety of prizes will be awarded. As ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Please justify your deletion of this page. You said it is not significantly different from what was posted before - this is untrue. It experienced substantial changes and input from user N419BH. He deleted most of the body and helped edit out a lot of the voice issues. He requested 4-5 addition citations which I provided and is still working on additional newscoverage.

I found your comment on my RfA to be rather insulting. I had reviewed the most recent RfA's prior to filing my own, and I concluded that based on those I had a chance of passing. Of the 2 most recent successful RfA's (in late July), two only had about 5000 edits, maybe a few hundred more, which wasn't that far off from mine. Of the 3 unsuccessful RfA's in August, one admitted that he was not a very active contributor, another only had a few hundred edits, and a third, although being a good contributor to Wikipedia, didn't have experience in areas where admin tools are needed. Of the unsuccessful RfA's in late July, two only had a few hundred edits, one had under 2000 edits and another, though a good candidate, had a few policy knowledge issues. Based on that information, I thought that I was in much better shape than the unsuccessful RfA's, and in just about as good shape as some of the most recent successful RfA's, maybe a little below their level. However, instead of noting that, you jumped to the conclusion that I don't pay attention to the RfA's, when I don't think that it's fair to put me on the same level as a person who only has a few hundred edits or only puts in a few dozen edits a month. -- Slon02 ( talk) 02:28, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Can you tell me why you changed the names of these two articles - 'WW1 Egyptian Labour Corps' and 'WW1 Egyptian Camel Transport Corps' because it seems to me that taking out 'WW1' cuts out the strong identity these corps had with that war. Neither of these corps operated outside that context.

Thank you for making the edit to Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Clash 2010. But could you make the protection template large, please? The small template is best used for pages with indefinite protection, because it does not display the reason for or duration of the protection. On a page that has been temporarily protected, editors may be less familiar with protection and the information provided by the large template is of greater concern to them. -- Bsherr ( talk) 18:38, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
I see that Chzz is on wikibreak. A few months ago, he did some work at WP:FEED in which I played a small role. He was doing much of the heavy lifting, but he mentioned that some of the technical work was being done by someone else - and I have a vague recollection it was you.
Of course the background is irrelevant if you can answer my question.
I'm working on a possible proposal related to clerkship at RfPP (still very drafty). One of the aspects of the proposal is a desire to create a template with a button that would do nothing is pressed by an non-sysop editor, but would do something (specifically, Page protection or unprotection) if pushed by a sysop. I don't know whether this is technically easy or difficult. Do you have an opinion? It isn't a critical aspect of the proposal, the concept could work without it, but I think it would be a nice touch if it worked.
Of course, any comments you have on the overall proposal would be welcome.-- SPhilbrick T 01:39, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed Your judgment as "needs work to remove OR and this is anti-Korean", However, You seems to have overlooked one important fact I think.
You should have paid attention to these comments that "Most Korean regards that those cites and references are abnormal. There's no relation with Nazi." or "The whole racial purity of Koreans isn't even 100% approved by the today's public but as a reaction to Japanese racial purity in the past and today's political mentality stemmed from the Cold War.".
You should get rid of the prejudice that delete position just emphasized the anti-Korean.-- Historiographer ( talk) 02:41, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Fetch I was wondering if you could give me some advice on a problem with the Modern didgeridoo designs article. I was mid-stride in the process of writing the article and someone did a AfD tag, not knowing where I was heading with it. It's prompted me to move a bit faster, and what I've done is taken a section on modern didgeridoo innovation in the original main Didgeridoo article, and merged it into the Modern didgeridoo designs article, and I've also changed the title of the Didgeridoo article to Didgeridoo (traditional) to reflect a delineation between authentic traditional and modern designs. This also helps delineate traditional Indigenous Australians cultural aspects of the didgeridoo, from some of the modern design features. I think it's a neat and technical solution to a problem.

i asked how to customize my signature not for a lecture from you about my activity on wikipedia so answer the question like you are supposed to do when you respond to a help me request. Inka 888 ( talk) 21:02, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
I think your page is too transparent. Imagine my suprise when I learned you are a seasoned admin! I think you should stick the admin identifier somewhere :) Res Mar 01:31, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
umm.. the place where i put my link was where there was supposed to be links. the link was in "List of Konami Code Sites" and wikipedia said that it does not comply with the rules.

Thank you very much for signing up for the Guild of Copy Editors' September Backlog Elimination Drive! The copyedit backlog stretches back two years, to the summer of 2008! We're going to need all the help we can muster to reduce the backlog to a manageable size. We've set a goal of clearing all of 2008 from the backlog, and getting the total under 5000. To do that, we're going to need more participants. Please invite anyone you can to join the drive! Once again, thanks for your support! If you have any questions, contact one of our coordinators— ɳorɑfʈ Talk!, The Raptor You rang?, or SMasters ( Talk). |

I just don't understand nominating sections of my userspace for deletion, based solely on my inactivity. It was really disappointing to log in and discover that you had done so. In the past I have been a very productive editor, and have contributed anonymously to the encyclopedia over the past couple of years. The suggestion that I am some sort of deadweight to the project and using it for social networking purposes is extremely offensive.
Thank you for closing this difficult AfD. In your closing statement, you wrote "...the sources are particularly helpful in establishing notability or even just being particularly reliable". Shouldn't it be "...the sources are not particularly helpful in establishing notability or even just being particularly reliable"? Cunard ( talk) 04:18, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Fetchcomms, You welcolmed me when I joined wikipedia and I tried to contact you previously. Chzz answered on your behalfand gave me the advice that I should get more experience with editting. That is fair enough and I thank them for their effort.
The issue is that Tree training is a hobby of mine and I have been trying to do it for several years with out much success so I was happy when I found the article on wiki.
1 In trying to get infomation, as an end user of wiki, I have been drawn into the wiki debate. I have been reading the article for months before I made a comment. The article has completely changed over that time. To me the article centres around the word arborsculpture and the creator of the word and other more important artists downgraded.
2. I believe Slowart/ Grisium and Richart Reams are the same person.
3. Photos have been removed and not put back.eg Becky's mirror, because one editor does not like the background. This fantastic piece of work is ignored when it is a world first as it has trained branches as well as roots.
4. A group of editors seem to ignore all the rules and edit as one.
5. I have asked questions and only receive scarcasism, and a sock puppet accusation. I have tried editing following admin editors advice only to have my edits reverted.I have been told to go away by Slowart and also told my talk page is not for discussion.
There is no actual name for this artform. It is just emerging. Richard reames brands other artists with his label No body in the English speaking world accepts this, as each artist has their individual methods and names. eg ChistopherCattle (Grown Up furniture) is far more significant than Arborsculpture as he can grow repeatedly even and balancedpieces . His citations have been removed. Arborsculpture is a marketing funnel that leads to Richard Reams, a book and other products.Google it and see. At present the Tree shaping title is locked. Blackash is having little success but has done excellent work and edits on content but is continually accused of COI What can I do ? Pleasegive me some advice.

IMDB provides the information on her mother and some on her father. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:04, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
An inquiry. Active Banana removed the following sources of information: [3], [4]. They both contain information on the actress. My question is whether or not it was really worth of removing them? There is also another site associated with Zorro and have Ms.Martinez picture as well ( [5]). Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:19, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
The company seems to be even wikified as well (see Zorro Productions, Inc.). Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:21, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
The IMDB article of Benito Martinez gave me info of her being related to him. I know it is a vague source, but maybe wikipedia can include that information in reference to IMDB. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:29, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Oh, nice article. What about the reliability? What kind of a newspaper is that? Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:34, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Are you going to "polish" out that article? Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 22:41, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
I included some of the info from that newspaper article in the article about Patrice Martinez. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 23:00, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
I apologize for keeping on bugging you. However, there is one detail. The http://www.zorro.com/new_world.html directs to the unofficial site as it being claimed. I suspect that they do have some sort of association other than a fan site (please see http://www.zorrolegend.com/newworldzorro/new-world-zorro.html). Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 23:10, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
OK, what about that Zorro (1990 TV series). I was not involved in creation of that article, at all. I already mentioned it on Patrice Martinez article if you're tracking. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 23:21, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
I see. But I assume it is OK for Patrice Martinez article mention that series, right? It also uses IMDB. Plus what about this mpeg file: http://www.zorro.com/NewWorldIntro.mpg. It clearly mentions and shows Patrice Martinez. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 23:31, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Interestingly the RADA does not have any records of her whatsoever http://www.rada.org/alumni/directory.aspx?id=108&frm=y&sur=MartinezCamhi&nme=Patrice&sub=&ttl=&yr=. Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 23:47, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Very possible. If she enrolled in RADA at 18 being born in 1963, then according to curriculum she was supposed to graduate in 1984. I feel like a detective :) Aleksandr Grigoryev ( talk) 00:17, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

there is no reason to get offended about it. I was just wondering. I had no idea that you were an admin until last night. Inka 888 22:00, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
I was not talking about the reviewer topican, i was talking about the trout me thing that always gets in the way when trying to put both of them on the page. The trout overlaps the reviewer topican no idea why. Inka 888 04:05, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Hi, Fetch! Thank you for your help at ani re my name-jumping band spam friend. I really appreciate it. I did want to ask a follow-up question to your post saying that SunHawken (contribs) created the first instance of the boomerang "Young Jonii" article. I'm posting my question here, rather than within the ANI thread because I expect there's a simple answer, and I don't want to clutter up the thread there if I can help it. Anyway, I don't understand how SunHawken could have created the article. I think I've set my interface to display all timestamps I see in UTC, and from what I'm seeing SunHawken's first-ever edit was at 15:59 25 August 2010 (UTC). From the deletion history box that I see at the top of this page I get the following:
Unless my time displays aren't all showing up in UTC, it looks to me like SunHawken's first-ever edit occurred after the first instance of "Young Jonii" was deleted. I know you can see pages I can't, so the error's probably on my side, but can you help me figure out what's going on? Figure out what I might be missing? Now I really am going offline for awhile, but I'll watchlist this page and check back soon. Thanks again, – OhioStandard ( talk) 16:32, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks again for the above: I wonder if you'd be able to take a look back at this same ANI thread and use your browser search function to find the phrase "I've undertaken all the cleanup steps that I can". The section that phrase occurs in details what admin intervention is still needed to close the matter. No worries if you're too busy, but I thought you wouldn't mind if I asked. Also, I hope it was okay to post in this section; I thought it would clutter up your talk page a bit less. Best, – OhioStandard ( talk) 01:56, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

We have our final eight! The best of luck to those who remain. A bumper newsletter this week as we start our home straight.
We say goodbye to the six who fell at the final hurdle. Geschichte ( submissions) only just missed out on a place in the final eight. Resolute ( submissions) was not far behind. Candlewicke ( submissions) was awarded top points for in the news this round. Gary King ( submissions) contributed a variety of did you know articles. Suomi Finland 2009 ( submissions) said "I'm surprised to have survived so far into the competition", but was extactic to see Finland in the semi-finals. Arsenikk ( submissions) did not score this round, but has scored highly in previous rounds. We also say goodbye to Ian Rose ( submissions), who withdrew earlier this month after spending six weeks overseas. Anyone interested in this round's results can see them here and here. Thank you to Stone ( submissions) for these.
Signups for next year's competition are now open. Planning is ongoing, with a key discussion about judges for next year open. Discussion about how next year's scoring will work is ongoing, and thoughts are more than welcome at Wikipedia talk:WikiCup/Scoring. Also, TonyTheTiger is compiling some information and statistics on the finalists here- the final eight are encouraged to add themselves to the list.
Our final eight will play it out for two months, after which we will know 2010's WikiCup winner, and a variety of prizes will be awarded. As ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
