Please stop creating an article about the the scrubs character Dr. Wen, he has appeared in far fewer episodes than the other minor characters with their own articles, and is far less notable. Thanks-- Jac16888 ( talk) 21:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
I was wondering what your opinion was on my recent edits to this page. As you can see i've been pretty brutal, mainly because i was pretty shocked at how much of it was copy and pasted from other sources, whole paragraphs came back with exact google matches. I may have been a bit too brutal, when i have time i do intend to re-add some history from the sources, although nowhere as much, since its only a town of 2000ish people, an article similar in size to France didn't seem appropriate-- Jac16888 ( talk) 03:56, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

For your bold and daring work with Girard, Kansas. Nyttend ( talk) 06:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC) |
Frankly I would have gone at least as far as you did, except I have a tendency not to be bold enough. It doesn't "seem right" to delete whole bits of text, but surely it needed to be chopped from the page: after all, we have standards, and our articles need to follow them — if they don't, something needs to be done — even to the extent of removing the offending text. Look at what I did to the history of Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary: I didn't remove problematic text that was as many letters, but I believe we need to remove problematic text even if it's virtually the entire text. It's good to see the article trimmed down, especially with the prospect of your fixing it further. Great work! Nyttend ( talk) 06:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Please see WP:CSD for reasons for speedy. magazine , books, etc. cannot be deleted for lack of notability using A7. Use WP:PROD or afd if your doubt their notability. DGG ( talk) 05:40, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Asin was one of the prominent bands from the Philippines in the 1970s. See Pinoy_rock#1970s. It even influenced apl.de.ap and has an article in the Tagalog Wikipedia. See tl:Asin (banda). Please remove the tag because they are notable. -- Jojit ( talk) 05:57, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Do you remember me? You helped me make a request for adminship before, could you help me again? Thanks,-- Bobes66 ( talk) 17:08, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Over the past months, TV episodes have been reverted by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here [3]. -- Maniwar ( talk) 19:56, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Why did you revert these perfectly legitimate edits, [4]?-- Jac16888 ( talk) 21:23, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Was there some sort of discussion regarding your large scale redirections to African Hip Hop?-- Thomas.macmillan ( talk) 21:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

(undent) Currently, I don't see a substantial problem. The problem is that the maintence required to keep it in a partially valuable state is outrageous. New accounts show up daily with attempts to add links to weak studies that suppose to show a scientific effect, or link to their own personal theories about water memory to explain the placebo effect. It's the delta that's the problem, not the state. PouponOnToast ( talk) 20:38, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

In the past the bands without article were allowed in the pipe band list article. But at list you should be consistent: if you remove those from Swiss it is fine with me as long as you also remove those from Poland which are in the same case.-- OC ( talk) 10:46, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks so much for the barnstar! First one I've received. It'll always be special to me. :D Enigma msg! 03:58, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for helping out with that. I would, as you said, have just been bold and done it myself, but for two things - 1. I don't quite know all the markups yet, and 2. being as it IS a page on a popular show, I wanted to get a second opinion, and try to make sure it wasn't going to get people in a twist. Anyway, thanks again! -- Umrguy42 ( talk) 06:10, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi Jac16888, just a quick note to let you know that I've added the Rollback tool to your account. You might find it helpful to read through the page at Wikipedia:Rollback if you haven't already, and feel free to let me know if you have any questions or there are any problems with it. Remember, most importantly, it's only for edits that obviously need reverting - everything else should have an edit summary attached — αlεx• mullεr 13:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Can you please tell why American spelling is used in this article. I did not understand. Otolemur crassicaudatus ( talk) 22:02, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
The IP that inserted it was caught inserting false information into other articles so I assumed that the edit was vandalism. If you are sure that it is not vandalism I apologize.-- Urban Rose 22:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi Jac16888, I am X-posting this from my response to your ill-informed request at the AE page for your consideration: what part of Please notify the user of your report at his or her user talk page do you not understand exactly? I don't mind that you want to bring enforcement down on me since, it's true, I'm not a keen contributor of content, having only rarely done so. I prefer the ruining it for everyone part. But there's some pretty basic etiquette here; failure to notify is reprehensible, devious, shameful and cowardly. Do better next time. Eusebeus ( talk) 19:22, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Actually, it looks like 2 of the 3 songs cited are not copyrighted. I cleaned up the article and removed the lyrics to the 3rd song, but I think otherwise it seems OK. Thanks, NawlinWiki ( talk) 17:46, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
It might not be an important article to you but it is encyclopedic. thank you NawlinWiki for your help-- UkrNole 485 ( talk) 23:21, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi I appreciate the reformatting job you've done, but I've noticed you're also removing the dead links. Although there are no articles for any of those links right now, it is still important to have them because they still belong on their respective lists as notable musicians on particular instruments etc. but also because it makes things easier for editors in the future to know what needs a new article. They could refer to these lists and help fill in the dead links. The best way to address dead links is to have articles for them, not to remove them. Thanks for your help! -- Casadesus ( talk) 17:21, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
I tried reverting directly to the last good version. The site said it could not be undone due to conflicting intermediate edits (or something similar). Are there any other methods? Mattman00000 ( talk) 00:11, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
