Hello,
I am perplexed about what happened, even though it is obvious that everyone acted in good faith here. I had proposed the article Mihály Szilágyi for deletion that you conducted , Ironholds. In the meantime a Ip sockpuppet of Iaaasi (Note that Iaaasi is from Craiova [3] ,using ip range 79.xxx) made Norden1990 (a Hungarian user who also had a minor contribution to the article) aware of the deletion process: [4]. Then, said sockpuppet of Iaaasi took the trouble to challenge you about your administrative action , Ironholds, by editing your talk page 8 times : [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] Furthermore, said sockpuppet asked Norden1990 to restore another edit of his previously blocked sockpuppet as well: [13] ,which was also done [14]. Okay okay.. it may be that Norden1990 is unaware of who ip 79.xxx is..okay. And, now that the article is restored, Iaaasi registered one another sockpuppet to continue to edit the previously restored article: [15] because it is so obvious that User:92andstillcounting is User:Iaaasi...
Hello Ironholds, I'm reviewing the block of this editor. I'm a little perplexed as to the block reason, could you please clarify who you think they're a sock of? I've looked through long-term abuse reports to try and find an editor fitting his editing patterns, but I just can't find anything like it. Seraphimblade Talk to me 07:37, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi, just a quick note, when you close an AfD you need to ensure that everything is inside the top and bottom templates - see this fix I did. Doesn't look important, but if you don't do it then Mathbot doesn't recognise the AfD as closed and it remains on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Old so that it looks like it's still outstanding (I presume Mathbot looks for the template as the first line of the page).

I have been doing some tidying in that area, removing invalid links from the articles, though I may have clashed with someone else. Basic content has remained unchanged. The correct regiment name is 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery so was trying to delete as many variations of that not in use. The main article uses 29th rather than 29(check MOD site) - I would love to get that correct but is probably unrealistic since referenced in too many places.

Hi - bit unsure about this close ... the player doesn't pass WP:NFOOTBALL (he's never played a game for a professional team) and everything in the article is purely match reports or local newspapers. That's not the main problem, though. Three of the four "Keep" votes were from the author User:Nelly 1975 (whose work on this article were their first edits since January), another account User:FishyPhotos with very similar editing areas which coincidentally was also making its first edits since January, and User:JesperBlomqvist (again with similar editing areas) making their first edit for 18 months.

As you restored the article once, I thought I'd bug you. Article was deleted again. I did a revert in the past ~12 hours, but I guess they got at it again. It has been speedied three times and the vandalism reverted a few times. They just re-created it as a talk page. I put a speedy on it without realizing.

I was quite busy this week which is why it has taken me until now to re-word the paragraphs in question. I have used the tool that you and DGG ( talk ) have recommended this and I think that the issue of paraphrasing should now be closed. There are still 8 matches left, but when one has a close look at their nature one will find out that they should be acceptable. Firstly, two are (alphebetical) enumerations which cannot seriously be considered as genuine work. Secondly, one should be aware that technical language very often makes use of compound words which the aforesaid tool considers duplications (e.g. transputer-based parallel system). Thirdly, it is customary to use terms power supply and cooling precisely in this order. I have no explanation for this. It might be because us engineers consider power and cooling as less fascinating (irrespective of the fact that thermodynamics is one of the hardest subjects at university). To sum up, I think that the question of close paraphrasing should be had another look into, and I would like to invite you to erase the tag "close paraphrasing". And as DGG ( talk ) was the nominator, I very much would like to learn about his views on the revision. Regards, Akolyth ( talk) 12:00, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

I've been working recently on this High Court judge's article; as you may know, his sentencing policy was basically "if I don't like you, you're going down". Despite his apparently stern attitude I came to have a grudging respect for the man's integrity, and it encouraged me to start a few other articles on senior legal figures, such as Wintringham Stable and Robin Dunn. Anyway, I know squit about the law, so it may well be that I've missed out a great chunk of the stuff on Melford Stevenson necessary for his article to cover the major topics for GA, so if you could spare a few moments to cast an eye over it and let me know what you think I'd be very grateful.

In the meantime a Ip sockpuppet of Iaaasi (Note that Iaaasi is from Craiova [3] ,using ip range 79.xxx) made Norden1990 (a Hungarian user who also had a minor contribution to the article) aware of the deletion process: [4]. Then, said sockpuppet of Iaaasi took the trouble to challenge you about your administrative action , Ironholds, by editing your talk page 8 times : [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] Furthermore, said sockpuppet asked Norden1990 to restore another edit of his previously blocked sockpuppet as well: [13] ,which was also done [14]. Okay okay.. it may be that Norden1990 is unaware of who ip 79.xxx is..okay. And, now that the article is restored, Iaaasi registered one another sockpuppet to continue to edit the previously restored article: [15] because it is so obvious that User:92andstillcounting is User:Iaaasi...
Hello Ironholds, I'm reviewing the block of this editor. I'm a little perplexed as to the block reason, could you please clarify who you think they're a sock of? I've looked through long-term abuse reports to try and find an editor fitting his editing patterns, but I just can't find anything like it. Seraphimblade Talk to me 07:37, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for granting me that user right:) However I'm not yet seeing a change in my membership groups. Just to check whether there was any mistake. Thanks again! ASTRONOMYINERTIA ( TALK) 13:16, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Ironholds! Could you take a look at The Wedding Dance, an article I made on 4 June 2012 which I've nominated for GA. I would like your thoughts on it. Regards, Thine Antique Pen ( talk • contributions) 18:15, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi, just a quick note, when you close an AfD you need to ensure that everything is inside the top and bottom templates - see this fix I did. Doesn't look important, but if you don't do it then Mathbot doesn't recognise the AfD as closed and it remains on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Old so that it looks like it's still outstanding (I presume Mathbot looks for the template as the first line of the page).

May I make some coding, please? The level-2 heading is interfering the log. -- George Ho ( talk) 15:46, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
I have been doing some tidying in that area, removing invalid links from the articles, though I may have clashed with someone else. Basic content has remained unchanged. The correct regiment name is 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery so was trying to delete as many variations of that not in use. The main article uses 29th rather than 29(check MOD site) - I would love to get that correct but is probably unrealistic since referenced in too many places.

Thanks! I can't stand unreferenced BLP stubs. I noticed that a page for this person had also been deleted over a year ago due to being an unreferenced BLP so it's nice in that regard to have it back in mainspace. Eshlare ( talk) 11:40, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
Can you please revisit this review, which has been open for over five weeks, and respond to what has been posted in the interim? Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 21:46, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
The article
Molwyn Joseph you nominated as a
good article has been placed on hold
. The article is close to meeting the
good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See
Talk:Molwyn Joseph for things which need to be addressed.

Hi - bit unsure about this close ... the player doesn't pass WP:NFOOTBALL (he's never played a game for a professional team) and everything in the article is purely match reports or local newspapers. That's not the main problem, though. Three of the four "Keep" votes were from the author User:Nelly 1975 (whose work on this article were their first edits since January), another account User:FishyPhotos with very similar editing areas which coincidentally was also making its first edits since January, and User:JesperBlomqvist (again with similar editing areas) making their first edit for 18 months. Very, very dubious! Black Kite ( talk) 12:04, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

I agree that James Heller (Prototype) isn't suitable for Wikipedia, but it looks like the source material was licensed as CC-BY-SA. So I am surprised to see it deleted as a a G12. Am I missing something?-- SPhilbrick (Talk) 02:17, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

18:19, 22 June 2012 Ironholds (talk | contribs) deleted page Coral Cantigas (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion: G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://cantigas.org/chorus)
I'm new to editing in Wikipedia. Last week I created a page for Coral Cantigas, where I am both a singer and member of the board. The page was deleted without mercy nor giving me time to react. Kindly help me restore it and guide me to correct the offending sections. There is a full section of choirs in the Washingtin DC area, and this one is missing from the list. We thought appropriate to include it.

Hi Iron. My mentor BusterD mentioned you might live near Chapel Hill, NC and be a good candidate to participate in the 2012 North Carolina PR & Marketing Seminar to educate PR professionals on COI issues. This is me and more on me here. You can seem some of my COI works here, here and here. They invited me to speak on a session on Wikipedia ethics for marketing professionals. Are you local to the triangle and potentially interested in participating? User:King4057 01:47, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
I think you are seriously misreading him. He's not being insincere at all. However, there may be some communication issues that make him stand out like a sore thumb, which frankly I quite prefer.

Thanks for your helpful offer regarding access to articles about the Zong Massacre. I have access to all the articles in the Zong_Massacre#References and Zong_Massacre#Further reading sections of the article -- but if you've found any other sources, perhaps you could send me the references (just the author names and titles is fine) on here. If that's too much work, drop me an email and we can sort out sending the PDFs (a Dropbox link would be fine if you already use it). Celuici ( talk) 11:44, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi! I have gotten the reviewer right and am helping out at the feedback page. I often notice that people put inappropriate feedback (flag as abuse). I was wondering about your take possibly penalizing people who do this, as the main goal of this project (I think) is to get feedback on how we can improve the article, not to hear perverted comments. Thank you, Electriccatfish2 ( talk) 22:28, 29 June 2012 (UTC).

As you restored the article once, I thought I'd bug you. Article was deleted again. I did a revert in the past ~12 hours, but I guess they got at it again. It has been speedied three times and the vandalism reverted a few times. They just re-created it as a talk page. I put a speedy on it without realizing. Could you restore the article and put on some protection. Eh, you are probably too busy putting some lasers on sharks to get to the article. Bgwhite ( talk) 20:12, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

You have deleted the article I have written. I perfectly disagree with it and having contributed to Wikipedia in the past, I now no longer will. Therefore, I would like to ask you to help me eradicate my I account as it is of no more use to me. However, this shall teach me a lesson ever to positively contribute to anything again ... Akolyth ( talk) 10:35, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

( edit conflict):::::::I believe that the roles of some staffers on certain WMF projects, and as a volunteer on community-driven issues, may be too close for comfort. I would expect WMF staff to completely disassociate themselves from staff vs volunteer areas where personal ideals, and WMF general policy may possibly be in conflict.

An automated Media Wikimail has reached me ... Now, I appreciate your demeanour. And I admit that I was sover-reacting. No hard feelings anymore ... If you could provide some guidance on how to rewrite the article, I should be happy to do some teamwork with you.

I was quite busy this week which is why it has taken me until now to re-word the paragraphs in question. I have used the tool that you and DGG ( talk ) have recommended this and I think that the issue of paraphrasing should now be closed. There are still 8 matches left, but when one has a close look at their nature one will find out that they should be acceptable. Firstly, two are (alphebetical) enumerations which cannot seriously be considered as genuine work. Secondly, one should be aware that technical language very often makes use of compound words which the aforesaid tool considers duplications (e.g. transputer-based parallel system). Thirdly, it is customary to use terms power supply and cooling precisely in this order. I have no explanation for this. It might be because us engineers consider power and cooling as less fascinating (irrespective of the fact that thermodynamics is one of the hardest subjects at university). To sum up, I think that the question of close paraphrasing should be had another look into, and I would like to invite you to erase the tag "close paraphrasing". And as DGG ( talk ) was the nominator, I very much would like to learn about his views on the revision. Regards, Akolyth ( talk) 12:00, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

I've been working recently on this High Court judge's article; as you may know, his sentencing policy was basically "if I don't like you, you're going down". Despite his apparently stern attitude I came to have a grudging respect for the man's integrity, and it encouraged me to start a few other articles on senior legal figures, such as Wintringham Stable and Robin Dunn. Anyway, I know squit about the law, so it may well be that I've missed out a great chunk of the stuff on Melford Stevenson necessary for his article to cover the major topics for GA, so if you could spare a few moments to cast an eye over it and let me know what you think I'd be very grateful.
