Hi JBW,
About
User talk:Skumar lyi. I wrote
Your conduct has been reported at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism, for the reasons already pointed out on your talk page. You may wish to discuss this on the WP:AIV page; please also feel free to contact me if you think I have made a mistake.--Shirt58 (talk) 09:57, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
I think I made two mistakes. The first was to ask the editor to reply at WP:AIV, the second was to ask the editor to reply to
me. Though I would like to think that I have adequate cluefullness, I must admit I am concerned about these two mistakes. Your thoughts?

Hi, would you please convey to User:MickMacNee that his comments are not welcome on my talk page? He is not to post comments under any ceircumstances except those notices required by WP, such ANIs. I consider this baiting, as he knows the restictions I'm under since my block was removed. This appears to be a stalking of either me or MJroots. Thanks. I'd also ask that me not respond in any way to my comments in AFDs, no matter what, but I uderstand if you can;t relay that request. Thanks. - BilCat ( talk) 00:56, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
By the time I found these messages, the ANI discussion was already very lengthy. I have read most of it, and also refreshed my memory about the past history, which I had largely forgotten. I do have opinions on the matter, but I don't think I have anything to say about it which would particularly help. I will leave it to the ANI discussion.

A discussion has begun about whether the article Money as Debt, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Money as Debt (3rd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:11, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
Dear Mr Watson
I notice that you are a regular updater of wikipedia. I trust that it is a very demanding position and one that requires accurate data. I would like to draw your attention to the deletion of 'Bryan Larkin' a Scottish actor and entertainer. I am currently working as his publicist and would like to enquire about this deletion and to have it reinstated.
We rely on information about our clinets in the entertainment industry being visible on this site.
Kind Regards and thanks for your time.

I've been thinking about multiple universes on the basis of some statements made in accordance with hindu mythology...And to me, it appears that these postulates must be true....of course, my intention is to provide a link between Philosophy and science...
I hope that you know about myths...about the position of planets influencing the nature and fate of human... I have tried to provide scientific explanation for this...and my theory is....
Each body exerts a gravitational force on the other...Now, for example, Jupiter and the earth are rotating around the sun.... Jupiter exerts a gravitational force on u..At the same time, sun also exerts a force on u....these forces now disturb your energy field (possibly, the energy fields created by the matter waves u emit)....Thus, your energy gets changed due to the interference of these energies....Thus, your energy changes unknowingly (without your conscience)...Thus, Ur thoughts...which also are a resultant of ur energy variations...(My hypothesis is that..Thoughts arise when our energy levels are changed due to the influence of another body)..will also change...so, correspondingly, ur deeds will change...
Coming to fate or luck...Ur energy will have an influence on others too...Some others energy fields get disturbed...accordingly, that person might begin to like or dislike u..(I believe this is the scientific reason for love, affection or what ever it may be)..
Now, when u go to perform an act, (Every work u do is just a modification of energy field)...your changing energy will also influence the work or ur task's energy field....thus, creating a negative or positive effect...means, suppose ur energy (it might be silly reasoning but dont laugh ok, coz i'm just trying my best) is in some sort of destructive interfernce with ur task's energy; then, that wud create a negative effect type of b thing...thus barricading ur effort to break the energy..or acheive that energy or emit that energy....(If u r going to do any task, it is nothing but breaking into the regions of the energy)....
Please help me in refining my thoughts. Ofcourse, I'm just a beginner. I have just started to read about cosmology, So I dont know much. Kindly answer me and dont mock me because I'm just an amateur. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sabgerno ( talk • contribs) 13:02, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Dear James,
I was wondering why the David Morris International Page was removed. I am aware that any page for a company would appear as advertising. However, David Morris is a company over 50 years old, based in over 8 stores worldwide, I do not see how a page for this company is any different than the one for Tiffany & Co or Gaff Diamonds. If the copy for this page needs altering please let me know and I would be happy to change it to fit within Wikipedia’s boundaries. There have been many famous and important people wearing David Morris, from The Princess of Jordan to Elizabeth Taylor and Cheryl Cole. As well as a number of historical under takings, from the world’s most expensive Barbie, to the redesigning of the Miss world Crown. David Morris Jewelry has also featured in a number of Films including ‘Diamonds are Forever’ and ‘The world is Not Enough’, as well as our bond street work shopping being used as the office of Avi Denovitz in the 2000 Guy Richie film 'Snatch'
Please let me know what i can do to allow this page for the world renowned company to be created. Many Thanks Phoebe —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidmorrislondon ( talk • contribs) 10:37, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
I am a To-Shin Do Practitioner who just tried to find his art on Wikiedia. I was saddened and dismayed that the entire page had been deleted. Our art is young in the world of martial arts, but not unknown. There have been more than 10 books published on it and and several websites. It has also been featured in Black Belt magazine. I didn't know it had a wiki article yet so I was unable to ad citations.
It turns out that a simple google search produces a plethora of videos and sources about To-Shin Do. I wish you had done that and added some citations yourself, instead of being lazy and just deleting the article. Now, unless you know some way to recover it, I am going to have to start over from scratch. Thanks a lot.

The admin WhisperToMe ( talk) is adament about adding sections about the possible homosexuality of the cartoon characters below. These sections are all based on the opinions of one man, JP Dennis, in one paper he wrote. Dennis is a gay man himself who seems to write exclusively about gay issues, so in my opinion, it's not surprising that he sees homosexuality where there is none. Also, there are already complete articles regarding this topic ( LGBT themes in comics, LGBT themes in speculative fiction). If you believe these sections would place undue weight on this topic (which I believe is a non-issue), please comment on the talk pages below, otherwise WhisperToMe will add these sections back. Thanks in advance for your input.

Hello James, I was on the point of deleting this article after your speedy tag, but when I Googled it I found it is in fact a village in India.

Why not? There not IP addresses. When an editors first edits are vandalism, there is basically no chance they'll make good faith edits in the future.

Unfortunately the AfD method is a little complicated, and can be confusing if you have not done it before. PROD is much easier. Let me know if you want further help or advice. I am honestly not sure whether the article should be deleted, and am open to persuasion. However, "information is out of date and incorrect" is not, on its own, a good reason for deletion, as the article could be updated. On the other hand, if the company does not satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines, that would be a reason for deletion, and at present the article lacks sufficient evidence of notability. You may like to look at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). The general notability guideline is also relevant. JamesBWatson ( talk) 14:25, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

James, Sorry, I am writing you a message about this again because I haven't received a response from you, so I may have posted the other one incorrectly. Regarding the Hyla arborea page that was changed back into a redirect, I can see how it can be viewed as a duplicate. However, the reason that I created a new page instead of adding to the current one, European tree frog, was because that page is referring to the common name and includes 4 species within that common name. Therefore, I created a new link for Hyla arborea, like the other species that were listed on that page. The information that I added was only specifically about the species Hyla arborea, so I feel that it was acceptable and was following the existing format to create a new page. Thank you for your time reviewing my page. Leighlynn89 ( talk) 10:20, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi, The page on SharePoint scanning I have just created has been deleted on the basis that a page called SharePoint already exists. This article is about a specific application related to SharePoint and is not about SharePoint itself. I have checked the SharePoint article and it does not cover this topic at all because scanning and capture functionality is NOT included in SharePoint but is provided by a third party market. Many of the companies I talk to are confused about what scanning to SharePoint is about so I decided to create this page to provide guidance on what the options are for using capture technology to get digital documents into a SharePoint repository.

Hi James,
A couple of things: 1) I do believe that a page for Carrol Boyes is relevant because:
2) I did put up hangon tags, because I needed to get Carrol boyes or her people to look at the page and edit it for correctness and for her to be OK with me proposing. It seems as if this second point didn't sit well with you. In that I am a newbie, I guess you know Wikipedia better than me so OK.
3) I did a bit more research and it now seems to make sense that I should get a user page going and get them to edit that and then get some reviewing done.
4) Do you agree this point 3 is the way to go? If so, should I use articles such as those on Elon Musk as a good template.
5) If OK, then is there a way to send me back the text that you deleted. I did put some effort into it and wouldn't want to lose it?
Thanks Athorny ( talk) 13:25, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James,
Thanks for your comments and the guidelines on the articles. Your advice on looking strongly at the notability standard is accepted. The Wikipedia direction on independent, neutral point of view is of course accepted.
You are correct the style wasn't appropriate which I know I will have to work on.
Yes I am confident there independent non-promotional sources. Yes I am confident that these will produce an independent view. I don't agree that it is not reasonable to ask her people for a view on factual accuracy and completeness. In any case, Carrol Boyes has the right, as her own person, to challenge any articles put up or statements made about their accuracy.
As to conflict - I have spent many thousands of pounds on her merchandise over the last 10 plus years for personal use. The merchandise and the art it represents gives my wife and I pleasure to this day. So yes I am a fan. Because of being such a fan we have also now built this into a commercial relationship, within the last year. This probably means the article must go through a much higher test of independence, verifiable sources, and notability. Fair enough.
It would seem to make sense to use the userfy mechanism to get the article validated and invite people to comment. If that is not acceptable, then I guess I could circulate a copy by email and get people to comment before resubmitting.

Hi JamesBWatson,
This is regarding the deletion of the page, Torry Harris Business Solutions. I have gone over the previous deletion discussion and have addressed the points of the company not being notable etc. The company has been identified as a leader in SOA by Industry analyst Forrester and has also been identified as a Cool vendor by Gartner. The article is not just about any company or product. It is an article about a company that has been identified by Industry Standard analysts. Kindly request you to let me know what changes you recommend for the article.

I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Seven Records, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Label that's released stuff for a notable band is enough for CSD.

Hi James -
I teach innovation around the world to global business leaders, and was disappointed to find that there is no reference to a famous creativity and innovation tool, SCAMPER, on Wikipedia. I noticed that you deleted the page that had it, and the deletion log said it did not come from a reliable source, but there certainly is a need for the SCAMPER tool to be on Wikipedia. It's well-known among innovation practitioners. In fact I recently worked with Chris Kurjan, who worked for IDEO (a famous innovation company) for 15 years, and SCAMPER is one of the key tools she teaches in her innovation workshops around the world. You can contact her if you like about the credibility of this tool: chrisk at innovationdelivery.com
Could you please consider adding it back? Here's a terrific reference for the tool: http://litemind.com/scamper/
The reason I'd love to have an article on Wikipedia about it is that it might then get translated into Japanese, and many of my clients are Japanese.

I've been thinking about multiple universes on the basis of some statements made in accordance with hindu mythology...And to me, it appears that these postulates must be true....of course, my intention is to provide a link between Philosophy and science...
I hope that you know about myths...about the position of planets influencing the nature and fate of human... I have tried to provide scientific explanation for this...and my theory is....
Each body exerts a gravitational force on the other...Now, for example, Jupiter and the earth are rotating around the sun.... Jupiter exerts a gravitational force on u..At the same time, sun also exerts a force on u....these forces now disturb your energy field (possibly, the energy fields created by the matter waves u emit)....Thus, your energy gets changed due to the interference of these energies....Thus, your energy changes unknowingly (without your conscience)...Thus, Ur thoughts...which also are a resultant of ur energy variations...(My hypothesis is that..Thoughts arise when our energy levels are changed due to the influence of another body)..will also change...so, correspondingly, ur deeds will change...
Coming to fate or luck...Ur energy will have an influence on others too...Some others energy fields get disturbed...accordingly, that person might begin to like or dislike u..(I believe this is the scientific reason for love, affection or what ever it may be)..
Now, when u go to perform an act, (Every work u do is just a modification of energy field)...your changing energy will also influence the work or ur task's energy field....thus, creating a negative or positive effect...means, suppose ur energy (it might be silly reasoning but dont laugh ok, coz i'm just trying my best) is in some sort of destructive interfernce with ur task's energy; then, that wud create a negative effect type of b thing...thus barricading ur effort to break the energy..or acheive that energy or emit that energy....(If u r going to do any task, it is nothing but breaking into the regions of the energy)....
Please help me in refining my thoughts. Ofcourse, I'm just a beginner. I have just started to read about cosmology, So I dont know much. Kindly answer me and dont mock me because I'm just an amateur. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sabgerno ( talk • contribs) 13:02, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Dear James,
I was wondering why the David Morris International Page was removed. I am aware that any page for a company would appear as advertising. However, David Morris is a company over 50 years old, based in over 8 stores worldwide, I do not see how a page for this company is any different than the one for Tiffany & Co or Gaff Diamonds. If the copy for this page needs altering please let me know and I would be happy to change it to fit within Wikipedia’s boundaries. There have been many famous and important people wearing David Morris, from The Princess of Jordan to Elizabeth Taylor and Cheryl Cole. As well as a number of historical under takings, from the world’s most expensive Barbie, to the redesigning of the Miss world Crown. David Morris Jewelry has also featured in a number of Films including ‘Diamonds are Forever’ and ‘The world is Not Enough’, as well as our bond street work shopping being used as the office of Avi Denovitz in the 2000 Guy Richie film 'Snatch'
Please let me know what i can do to allow this page for the world renowned company to be created. Many Thanks Phoebe —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidmorrislondon ( talk • contribs) 10:37, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
I am a To-Shin Do Practitioner who just tried to find his art on Wikiedia. I was saddened and dismayed that the entire page had been deleted. Our art is young in the world of martial arts, but not unknown. There have been more than 10 books published on it and and several websites. It has also been featured in Black Belt magazine. I didn't know it had a wiki article yet so I was unable to ad citations.
It turns out that a simple google search produces a plethora of videos and sources about To-Shin Do. I wish you had done that and added some citations yourself, instead of being lazy and just deleting the article. Now, unless you know some way to recover it, I am going to have to start over from scratch. Thanks a lot.

The admin WhisperToMe ( talk) is adament about adding sections about the possible homosexuality of the cartoon characters below. These sections are all based on the opinions of one man, JP Dennis, in one paper he wrote. Dennis is a gay man himself who seems to write exclusively about gay issues, so in my opinion, it's not surprising that he sees homosexuality where there is none. Also, there are already complete articles regarding this topic ( LGBT themes in comics, LGBT themes in speculative fiction). If you believe these sections would place undue weight on this topic (which I believe is a non-issue), please comment on the talk pages below, otherwise WhisperToMe will add these sections back.

Unfortunately the AfD method is a little complicated, and can be confusing if you have not done it before. PROD is much easier. Let me know if you want further help or advice. I am honestly not sure whether the article should be deleted, and am open to persuasion. However, "information is out of date and incorrect" is not, on its own, a good reason for deletion, as the article could be updated. On the other hand, if the company does not satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines, that would be a reason for deletion, and at present the article lacks sufficient evidence of notability. You may like to look at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). The general notability guideline is also relevant. JamesBWatson ( talk) 14:25, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

James, Sorry, I am writing you a message about this again because I haven't received a response from you, so I may have posted the other one incorrectly. Regarding the Hyla arborea page that was changed back into a redirect, I can see how it can be viewed as a duplicate. However, the reason that I created a new page instead of adding to the current one, European tree frog, was because that page is referring to the common name and includes 4 species within that common name. Therefore, I created a new link for Hyla arborea, like the other species that were listed on that page. The information that I added was only specifically about the species Hyla arborea, so I feel that it was acceptable and was following the existing format to create a new page. Thank you for your time reviewing my page. Leighlynn89 ( talk) 10:20, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi James,
A couple of things: 1) I do believe that a page for Carrol Boyes is relevant because:
2) I did put up hangon tags, because I needed to get Carrol boyes or her people to look at the page and edit it for correctness and for her to be OK with me proposing. It seems as if this second point didn't sit well with you. In that I am a newbie, I guess you know Wikipedia better than me so OK.
3) I did a bit more research and it now seems to make sense that I should get a user page going and get them to edit that and then get some reviewing done.
4) Do you agree this point 3 is the way to go? If so, should I use articles such as those on Elon Musk as a good template.
5) If OK, then is there a way to send me back the text that you deleted. I did put some effort into it and wouldn't want to lose it?
Thanks Athorny ( talk) 13:25, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James,
Thanks for your comments and the guidelines on the articles. Your advice on looking strongly at the notability standard is accepted. The Wikipedia direction on independent, neutral point of view is of course accepted.
You are correct the style wasn't appropriate which I know I will have to work on.
Yes I am confident there independent non-promotional sources. Yes I am confident that these will produce an independent view. I don't agree that it is not reasonable to ask her people for a view on factual accuracy and completeness. In any case, Carrol Boyes has the right, as her own person, to challenge any articles put up or statements made about their accuracy.
As to conflict - I have spent many thousands of pounds on her merchandise over the last 10 plus years for personal use. The merchandise and the art it represents gives my wife and I pleasure to this day. So yes I am a fan. Because of being such a fan we have also now built this into a commercial relationship, within the last year. This probably means the article must go through a much higher test of independence, verifiable sources, and notability. Fair enough.
It would seem to make sense to use the userfy mechanism to get the article validated and invite people to comment. If that is not acceptable, then I guess I could circulate a copy by email and get people to comment before resubmitting.

Hi JamesBWatson,
This is regarding the deletion of the page, Torry Harris Business Solutions. I have gone over the previous deletion discussion and have addressed the points of the company not being notable etc. The company has been identified as a leader in SOA by Industry analyst Forrester and has also been identified as a Cool vendor by Gartner. The article is not just about any company or product. It is an article about a company that has been identified by Industry Standard analysts. Kindly request you to let me know what changes you recommend for the article.

...a rangeblock didn't seem to work so well the last time. But don't let it be said I'm not optimistic. Let's give it a try. You're not using the same range Dianaa was, are you? Because I know that doesn't work. Half Shadow 18:15, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
hello,
can you give me the article, please? I couldn't find it in my contribs. Thank you.-- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ T 17:26, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
I'm making the page better, corrected grammar, etc.
Why you reverted it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.188.105.25 ( talk • contribs) 20:49, 8 December 2010
If you look at who made the additions between 3rd December and 5th December, it was me who added the extra content, such as "achievements". Basically I'm trying to perfect the page better. I didn't add the correct tag for Kuwait National football team but now I did. Also, the person who made the list before me had it all clustered up. Also, there are places that needed to have commas, etc. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.188.105.25 ( talk • contribs) 20:58, 8 December 2010
Anyway it doesn't matter now. The current page looks better now. Thanks. :) comment added by 193.188.105.25

I'm slightly puzzled by your decision to block this IP, since I'd declined the AIV report on the ground that they had been issued a final warning 20 minutes after their last act of vandalism and then the editor who gave the warning reported them to AIV without any further activity, yet you blocked them?

Hello JamesBWatson. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Seven Records, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Label that's released stuff for a notable band is enough for CSD. PROD or take to AfD. Thank you. Ged UK 11:09, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James -
I teach innovation around the world to global business leaders, and was disappointed to find that there is no reference to a famous creativity and innovation tool, SCAMPER, on Wikipedia. I noticed that you deleted the page that had it, and the deletion log said it did not come from a reliable source, but there certainly is a need for the SCAMPER tool to be on Wikipedia. It's well-known among innovation practitioners. In fact I recently worked with Chris Kurjan, who worked for IDEO (a famous innovation company) for 15 years, and SCAMPER is one of the key tools she teaches in her innovation workshops around the world. You can contact her if you like about the credibility of this tool: chrisk at innovationdelivery.com
Could you please consider adding it back? Here's a terrific reference for the tool: http://litemind.com/scamper/
The reason I'd love to have an article on Wikipedia about it is that it might then get translated into Japanese, and many of my clients are Japanese.

please block them with email blocked and talkpage access revoked. saves someone time from having to deal with a bullshit unblock. i reblocked with those enabled. feel free to delete this. Syrthiss ( talk) 12:38, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Heh, you beat me to it... I noticed the page from AIV, then saw it was CSD, as well. Cheers =) -- slakr\ talk / 14:43, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
first thanks for the information. QA :if it was copy from a site what if the copy info is actually pure technical info that the device manufacturer released. Is this "copy" also forbidden under copyright policy ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JonForst6 ( talk • contribs) 22:32, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
I understand, Thank for the prompt answer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JonForst6 ( talk • contribs) 17:30, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James. Could you take a look at this user's edit summaries and check out some of the edits that catch your attention, especially those at the very beginning of the editing history,the recent removal of ffd tags and th strange occurence at Talk:John Lennon. Do you think this is a 'vandalism only' account? Or is it an account that has been compromised?-- Kudpung ( talk) 01:17, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James. To say that I am disappointed in the way Jeremy's RfA went is already an understatement. Not so much because of Jeremy personally, but because of the broken and corrupt process that RfA has become. Nevertheless, thank you for being one of the few admins to continue to take interest in the process that got you there, even if we don't share the same opinions.-- Kudpung ( talk) 05:30, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi James. If you're online, could you please close this per WP:NOTNOW. Thanks. -- Kudpung ( talk) 19:33, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
