An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Sophie Wu. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and " What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sophie Wu. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. -- Erwin85Bot ( talk) 01:07, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
I wasn't sure what I was doing (as I got an error message when I first tried to add my citations to the cosmic cloud/dust article), so thanks for checking things out and making sure they were as they were supposed to be. I guess you have to manually add a reference section to an article before you can cite facts with in-text numbered-superscript references (like i tried to do and hopefully succeeded)? re: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Interstellar_cloud&oldid=343333135 -- Δζ ( talk) 04:11, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Graeme,
you are receiving this message as you voted in VOTE 2 at the recent Community de-Adminship 'Proposal Finalization' Poll. Unfortunately, there is a hitch regarding the "none" vote that can theoretically affect all votes.
1) Background of VOTE 2:
In a working example of CDA; ater the 'discussion and polling phase' is over, if the "rule of thumb" baseline percentage for Support votes has been reached, the bureaucrats can start to decide whether to desysop an admin, based in part on the evidence of the prior debate. This 'baseline' has now been slightly-adjusted to 65% (from 70%) per VOTE 1. VOTE 2 was asking if there is a ballpark area where the community consensus is so strong, that the bureaucrats should consider desysopping 'automatically'. This 'threshold' was set at 80%, and could change pending agreement on the VOTE 2 results.
This was VOTE 2;
This is the VOTE 2 question without any ambiguity;
2) What was wrong with VOTE 2?
Since the poll, it has been suggested that ambiguity in the term "none at all" could have affected some of the votes. Consequently there has been no consensus over what percentage to settle on, or how to create a new compromise percentage. The poll results are summarised here.
3) How to help:
Directly below this querying message, please can you;
I realise that many of you clarified your meaning after your initial vote, but the only realistic way to move forward is to be as inclusive as possible in this vote query. Sorry for the inconvenience,
Matt Lewis ( talk) 14:32, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

I have a copy of one hundred islands - the flora of the outer furneaux - and am likely to some rather drastic changes to the article - if you want to offer your salient advice or whatever before it happens - here is your chance... I basically have spent over 2 years admonishing indonesian project low english ips to not add meaningless unalpha lists of things - and am planning to do some radical things with the article - which offends me as it is - seeing you are a predominant ed at the current version thought the least you need is the option to plead for its current odd state or be warned it will be changing - cheers Satu Suro 06:57, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Havent made up my mind - was thinking of a list of islands might be more apporptiate (I often wonder where my negs of when I used to fly across tassie in the last century (so it feels) between queenie (sic) and hobart ever went :( ) It was a regular service in the mid 70's and if the winds were dickie at queenie they used to land at strahan instead :( Satu Suro 08:53, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Yeah the only one I have is the King River mouth and Mount Huxley/Lake Burbury during the Canberra fires in early 2002 up at the moment in commons - its gonna take a long time - its the getting the old steam powered scanners valves flushed out and the brain oiled and in gear for long nights of scanning and ignoring wp :) Satu Suro 09:05, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
As other editors have pointed out, there has been several intentional moves in this request for comment:
The end result is that editors who support radical, disruptive change, control the conversation, and less involved editors think that they only have a narrow list of choices, and !vote to accept bitey proposals which will only further hurt wikipedia growth and bite newcomers. Compromise means that both sides give up something.
I would possibly support this proposal if it includes strong WP:BEFORE language, to help protect new editors contributions, as the Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Biographies of living people#WP:BEFORE proposal, which has 19 supports, advocates.
As the creator of WP:Contest and as someone who is advocating bots on Wikipedia:Bot requests I know there are less disruptive and WP:BITE alternatives available.
I would strongly encourage you to reconsider your position. Okip 12:51, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello Graeme. I see you declined my speedy deletion nomination of The Cambridge School, Doha, Qatar, but you gave no reason. I wonder if you would tell me what your reason was? The article contains substantial verbatim copies of material from pages which are clearly labelled with notices such as "All contents copyright © Taleb Group. All rights reserved", so I should have thought it was an unambiguous copyright violation. If not, I should be very grateful if you could explain why not.

Hi Graeme Bartlett/archive 10 ! The template workshop has now split off most of the long threads purely on policy to a new discussion page so that policy can be established while technical development of the template can continue in its own space. When the template functions are finalised, the policy bits can be merged into them. If you intend to continue to contribute your ideas to the development of the template or its policy of use, and we hope you will, please consider either adding your name to the list of workshop members, or joining in with the policy discussions on the new page. -- Kudpung ( talk) 06:34, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi friend! and thanks for helping me, I read the criteria and it meets all except one: Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding.. I mean, people understand who Dahmer is with or without the pic. but with this pic, we show him looking different, because in YouTube they say in Wikipedia is totally diferent, and I thought it would be great to have him with glasses and without moustache, like he was at trial.

You posted to the page: You are going to have to show that you own copyright on a photo of yourself. Normally the photographer will own copyright.
I am the photographer, not the girl. Also I'm not inclined to provide free photos of much higher resolution because pageant pages are vandalized and photos stolen often. I may change the photo to a slightly higher resolution, but I complied with the requirements and you received the email required in the instructions from me. You can identify this email because it contains my name, address, phone and was sent from a domain that you may privately use as a challenge and response to confirm that it really is me. Based on my other pictures contributed, it should be obvious that it's my picture.
Additionally I'd like a private message before I turn in a sock puppet and vandal. I have read all information so don't just give me a link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elite194 ( talk • contribs) 06:20, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I see you've deleted the above image on the grounds that it was tagged NC. I don't know if it was or not, but I think this is a bit harsh - considering it was taken at Wikimania, and that I was given no time to contact the photographer. (Was any attempt made by anyone else to contact her?) At the very least, could you provide me with the image AND the description, so I can find the original on Flickr?

Hello. I got your message the other day about the college football season category deletions/moves that I nominated. You suggested that I update all the relevant articles with the new category before the old one is deleted, but User:Cydebot has made these necessary changes automatically; see 1881 Michigan Wolverines football team. I want to make more change to the college football season categories. Specifically, "College" needs to be removed from all seasons between 1906 and 1955 as it is redundant given IAAUS/NCAA in those category names. Plus, college shouldn't be capitalized there even if it wasn't redundant. Will User:Cydebot make similar updates for these categories as well? Thanks. Jweiss11 ( talk) 21:18, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi Graeme,
you are receiving this message as you voted in VOTE 2 at the recent Community de-Adminship 'Proposal Finalization' Poll. Unfortunately, there is a hitch regarding the "none" vote that can theoretically affect all votes.
1) Background of VOTE 2:
In a working example of CDA; ater the 'discussion and polling phase' is over, if the "rule of thumb" baseline percentage for Support votes has been reached, the bureaucrats can start to decide whether to desysop an admin, based in part on the evidence of the prior debate. This 'baseline' has now been slightly-adjusted to 65% (from 70%) per VOTE 1. VOTE 2 was asking if there is a ballpark area where the community consensus is so strong, that the bureaucrats should consider desysopping 'automatically'. This 'threshold' was set at 80%, and could change pending agreement on the VOTE 2 results.
This was VOTE 2;
This is the VOTE 2 question without any ambiguity;
2) What was wrong with VOTE 2?
Since the poll, it has been suggested that ambiguity in the term "none at all" could have affected some of the votes. Consequently there has been no consensus over what percentage to settle on, or how to create a new compromise percentage. The poll results are summarised here.
3) How to help:
Directly below this querying message, please can you;
I realise that many of you clarified your meaning after your initial vote, but the only realistic way to move forward is to be as inclusive as possible in this vote query. Sorry for the inconvenience,

I have a copy of one hundred islands - the flora of the outer furneaux - and am likely to some rather drastic changes to the article - if you want to offer your salient advice or whatever before it happens - here is your chance... I basically have spent over 2 years admonishing indonesian project low english ips to not add meaningless unalpha lists of things - and am planning to do some radical things with the article - which offends me as it is - seeing you are a predominant ed at the current version thought the least you need is the option to plead for its current odd state or be warned it will be changing - cheers Satu Suro 06:57, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Havent made up my mind - was thinking of a list of islands might be more apporptiate (I often wonder where my negs of when I used to fly across tassie in the last century (so it feels) between queenie (sic) and hobart ever went :( ) It was a regular service in the mid 70's and if the winds were dickie at queenie they used to land at strahan instead :( Satu Suro 08:53, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Yeah the only one I have is the King River mouth and Mount Huxley/Lake Burbury during the Canberra fires in early 2002 up at the moment in commons - its gonna take a long time - its the getting the old steam powered scanners valves flushed out and the brain oiled and in gear for long nights of scanning and ignoring wp :) Satu Suro 09:05, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
As other editors have pointed out, there has been several intentional moves in this request for comment:
The end result is that editors who support radical, disruptive change, control the conversation, and less involved editors think that they only have a narrow list of choices, and !vote to accept bitey proposals which will only further hurt wikipedia growth and bite newcomers. Compromise means that both sides give up something.
I would possibly support this proposal if it includes strong WP:BEFORE language, to help protect new editors contributions, as the Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Biographies of living people#WP:BEFORE proposal, which has 19 supports, advocates.
As the creator of WP:Contest and as someone who is advocating bots on Wikipedia:Bot requests I know there are less disruptive and WP:BITE alternatives available.
I would strongly encourage you to reconsider your position. Okip 12:51, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello Graeme. I see you declined my speedy deletion nomination of The Cambridge School, Doha, Qatar, but you gave no reason. I wonder if you would tell me what your reason was? The article contains substantial verbatim copies of material from pages which are clearly labelled with notices such as "All contents copyright © Taleb Group. All rights reserved", so I should have thought it was an unambiguous copyright violation. If not, I should be very grateful if you could explain why not.

Hi Graeme Bartlett/archive 10 ! The template workshop has now split off most of the long threads purely on policy to a new discussion page so that policy can be established while technical development of the template can continue in its own space. When the template functions are finalised, the policy bits can be merged into them. If you intend to continue to contribute your ideas to the development of the template or its policy of use, and we hope you will, please consider either adding your name to the list of workshop members, or joining in with the policy discussions on the new page. -- Kudpung ( talk) 06:34, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi friend! and thanks for helping me, I read the criteria and it meets all except one: Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding.. I mean, people understand who Dahmer is with or without the pic. but with this pic, we show him looking different, because in YouTube they say in Wikipedia is totally diferent, and I thought it would be great to have him with glasses and without moustache, like he was at trial.

You posted to the page: You are going to have to show that you own copyright on a photo of yourself. Normally the photographer will own copyright.
I am the photographer, not the girl. Also I'm not inclined to provide free photos of much higher resolution because pageant pages are vandalized and photos stolen often. I may change the photo to a slightly higher resolution, but I complied with the requirements and you received the email required in the instructions from me. You can identify this email because it contains my name, address, phone and was sent from a domain that you may privately use as a challenge and response to confirm that it really is me. Based on my other pictures contributed, it should be obvious that it's my picture.
Additionally I'd like a private message before I turn in a sock puppet and vandal. I have read all information so don't just give me a link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elite194 ( talk • contribs) 06:20, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I see you've deleted the above image on the grounds that it was tagged NC. I don't know if it was or not, but I think this is a bit harsh - considering it was taken at Wikimania, and that I was given no time to contact the photographer. (Was any attempt made by anyone else to contact her?) At the very least, could you provide me with the image AND the description, so I can find the original on Flickr?

Hello. I got your message the other day about the college football season category deletions/moves that I nominated. You suggested that I update all the relevant articles with the new category before the old one is deleted, but User:Cydebot has made these necessary changes automatically; see 1881 Michigan Wolverines football team. I want to make more change to the college football season categories. Specifically, "College" needs to be removed from all seasons between 1906 and 1955 as it is redundant given IAAUS/NCAA in those category names. Plus, college shouldn't be capitalized there even if it wasn't redundant. Will User:Cydebot make similar updates for these categories as well? Thanks. Jweiss11 ( talk) 21:18, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
