Hi JamieS93,
I accidently created the page "Garry walker" when it should have been "Garry Walker", but when looking to correct my mistake, I noticed that you had deleted a "Garry Walker" page. Not wanting to do anything wrong - your advice would be usefull.

Many happy returns! I have thought things over and, if you are still willing to nominate me, I am prepared to give it a go. If it doesn't go well, no harm will be done and I will probably learn something, though if the message is "go and write DYKs and FAs and come back in six months" I shall just relapse into gnomery. Mentifisto and/or Tikiwont might be willing to co-nom, if you think that would be useful. I would prefer the actual throwing-to-the-lions not to start before Monday, no problem at all if it's a few days later. Regards, JohnCD ( talk) 22:29, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Jamie. A few days ago, you deleted several subcategories of Category:Disney characters because they were empty. There may have been more that someone else got to before you did, I'm not sure. These categories were only empty because Lord Opeth ( talk · contribs) removed them from all of their articles, without explanation. I asked him twice for an explanation but received no response even though he continues to edit. I don't think he should be able to essentially have these categories deleted without discussion, but that seems to be what has happened. I would ask you to restore the categories, but that leaves the problem of repopulating them, which I can't figure out how to do without going through each of Lord Opeth's edits over the past few weeks. Do you have any suggestions? Powers T 12:45, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
Jamie, I am concerned that
User:Falsehoods_Aplenty is a sock of
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/The_Wurdalak but I am not sure how to reopen the case. My concerns are due to similar editting styles in

Heya Jamie,
You said that a request was needed for a user space page to be deleted. I requested deletion in response to this request by the user. However, I am not going to request deletion for all of their articles, because I was told that they could not request deletion unless they were the only contributor to the article in question. Thanks, Tim1357 ( talk) 03:49, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
I have re-undeleted User:DuncanHill/Cornwall type localities. The original author made the request at my talkpage, so I did it... What I didn't do, though, was to not undelete the last edit, which was a delete request... Um... So, you came along and deleted it... and I have undeleted it for the second time today. It is a good thing for me that RfA's don't come with an intelligence test! LessHeard vanU ( talk) 15:29, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Okay, so you had the "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?" page deleted on grounds that "G8. Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page."... I'm going to have to call bullshit there, actually. The only thing that was in dispute on this article was it's lack of multiple sources of verifiable notability... which is NOT in-and-of-itself grounds for a speedy deletion. Care to explain your reasoning here, and why the page was deleted... because maybe I am misunderstanding something here. -- Jonny Paula ( talk) 06:38, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Re: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Dylan620
Why not just waterboard the poor guy, torture would be less painful than deciphering that AFD. :) Wading through that is one of the few tasks on the wiki that is more painful than your own RFA.
Seriously though, that question, or one like it, should be part of a "pre-RFA" checklist that has a list of self-evaluation questions for candidates to think about before accepting a nomination. If an editor knows what he's getting into, it will deter those who aren't ready and mentally prepare those who are for the challenges of the job. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs)/( e-mail) 02:11, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:The Outsiders book.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 00:06, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

Once again it is festive season, a time where festive decorations are displayed and gifts are swapped; but what about the true meaning of christmas? The true meaning of christmas is about the fight for freedom and how in times of hardship and misery, one person leads their people to freedom as a great warrior; for those who fight for a cause are warriors and those who fight for a worthy cause are great warriors. Such an act earns respect and honour; but most importantly, brings happiness to their people. So to achieve this as happiness lies in other people's happiness and greatness lies in how you deal with little people, we selflessly think of others in the hope that they will be happy this christmas.
Hi JamieS93, have a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year 2010!

Dear JamieS93, here is a little note to say thank you for your kind vote on my request for adminship which failed with a final result of (40/19/12).
Thank you for your participation in my RfA which I withdrew after concerns of my knowledge of policy. Special thanks are owed to Coffee, who defended me throughout and whom I cannot thank enough for the nomination; to 2over0 for being supportive and helpful; to A Stop at Willoughby for the thorough, thoughtful and articulate support rationale; to IP69.226.103.13 for maintaining composure and for a pleasant interaction on my talk page and, last but not least, to Juliancolton who was good enough to close the RfA at my request and, frankly, because an editor whom I respect so much found the time to support me! If the need for more admins at the main page is still apparent in a few months, I may try again. Thank you all for a relatively drama-free RfA and for providing me with much material from which to learn from my mistakes. You're all welcome to drop by my talk page any time. God save the Queen Wiki!

You are receiving this message as you have voted in VOTE 3 at the Community de-Adminship 'Proposal Finalization' Poll.
It has been pointed out that VOTE 3 was confusing, and that voters have been assuming that the question was about creating an actual two-phase CDA process. The question is merely about having a two-phase poll on CDA at the eventual RfC, where the community will have their vote (eg a "yes/no for CDA” poll, followed a choice of proposal types perhaps).
As I wrote the question, I'll take responsibility for the confusion. It does make sense if read through to the end, but it certainly wasn't as clear as it should have been, or needed to be!
Please amend your vote if appropriate - it seems that many (if not most) people interpreted the question in the way that was not intended.

Hi there. In your summary for closing the Graphical interface of future operating system article, you've written that "The result was delete. Since it's so clearly WP:NOT, with zero chance, we should have been able to speedy that". Incidentally, we were able to speedy that article, and I had already, on the same day the article was created on 16 January 2010, placed a CSD tag on that page. An admin declined the speedy deletion, and suggested I take it to Afd, which I did.

Hi. You deleted but then restored Template:Superleague Formula races. I would ask you to redelete it as the point was that it has merged with another template so the information is already there. It wasn't a mistake putting it up for deletion.

Hi, Jamie. A few days ago, you deleted several subcategories of Category:Disney characters because they were empty. There may have been more that someone else got to before you did, I'm not sure. These categories were only empty because Lord Opeth ( talk · contribs) removed them from all of their articles, without explanation. I asked him twice for an explanation but received no response even though he continues to edit. I don't think he should be able to essentially have these categories deleted without discussion, but that seems to be what has happened. I would ask you to restore the categories, but that leaves the problem of repopulating them, which I can't figure out how to do without going through each of Lord Opeth's edits over the past few weeks. Do you have any suggestions? Powers T 12:45, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
Jamie, I am concerned that
User:Falsehoods_Aplenty is a sock of
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/The_Wurdalak but I am not sure how to reopen the case. My concerns are due to similar editting styles in
Oath_Keepers. Could you please advise me? I'd appreciate if you'd let me take the neccessary steps myself so I can learn, I just can't find which steps to take.--

Yeah, I was being facetious when I said I couldn't imagine what was being referred to. I'm familiar with that case, and in fact address it in some detail elsewhere in my answers. Thanks for offering context, though. Cheers, Steve Smith ( talk) 18:02, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
I believe we have arrived at an agreement. You may un-protect the article now, unless any other things still need to be addressed. Joberooni ( talk) 00:32, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for adding that. I tried to generate some text-based editing stats with the link from the RfA nomination instructions, but it gave me a 403 Forbidden error, so I gave up. Anyhow, the talk page redlink was bugging me, so thanks for fixing it. :) MastCell Talk 20:44, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Heya Jamie,
You said that a request was needed for a user space page to be deleted. I requested deletion in response to this request by the user. However, I am not going to request deletion for all of their articles, because I was told that they could not request deletion unless they were the only contributor to the article in question. Thanks, Tim1357 ( talk) 03:49, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
I have re-undeleted User:DuncanHill/Cornwall type localities. The original author made the request at my talkpage, so I did it... What I didn't do, though, was to not undelete the last edit, which was a delete request... Um... So, you came along and deleted it... and I have undeleted it for the second time today. It is a good thing for me that RfA's don't come with an intelligence test! LessHeard vanU ( talk) 15:29, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Okay, so you had the "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?" page deleted on grounds that "G8. Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page."... I'm going to have to call bullshit there, actually. The only thing that was in dispute on this article was it's lack of multiple sources of verifiable notability... which is NOT in-and-of-itself grounds for a speedy deletion. Care to explain your reasoning here, and why the page was deleted... because maybe I am misunderstanding something here. -- Jonny Paula ( talk) 06:38, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Jamie - thanks for the comment on my talk page. I just wanted to follow up to make sure you didn't think I was ignoring your questions about my views on BLP. If there are any specific questions you can point me to, or any specific RFAs to look at I'd be happy to share my views (although as you can probably guess I can't promise that they will be brief).

Hello, JamieS93! This is just a note thanking you for participating in my
recent Request for Adminship, which passed with a total of 93 support !votes, 1 oppose and 3 editors remaining neutral. While frankly overwhelmed by the level of support, I humbly thank the community for the trust it has placed in me, and vow to use the tools judiciously and without malice. |
Re: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Dylan620
Why not just waterboard the poor guy, torture would be less painful than deciphering that AFD. :) Wading through that is one of the few tasks on the wiki that is more painful than your own RFA.
Seriously though, that question, or one like it, should be part of a "pre-RFA" checklist that has a list of self-evaluation questions for candidates to think about before accepting a nomination. If an editor knows what he's getting into, it will deter those who aren't ready and mentally prepare those who are for the challenges of the job. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs)/( e-mail) 02:11, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:The Outsiders book.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 00:06, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ifs_School_of_Finance Hi Jamie I have recently uploaded some new content onto our page as the old content was incorrect and no longer valid.I have just seen that the content has been reverted back to its original because it was deemed to be promotional material and like an advert. I work for the company and we took every effort to ensure that anything uploaded and written was accurate. Would you be able to let me know what parts did not fit with the wikipedia guidelines and how I can amend this.

Hi Jamie http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ifs_School_of_Finance This page for the ifs School of Finance still has the page title Institute of Bankers, which was our company name many years ago, I cannot change the page title because I do not have the ability to change the title - would you be able to advise me how I can go about changing the page title so instead of Institute of Bankers the page is called ifs School of Finance Thank you Harriet Dredge Hredge ( talk) 10:46, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Thank you very much for changing that, is there any chance that you can make the title read ifs School of Finance, so the ifs is in bold and italics and School of Finance is in italics.

Once again it is festive season, a time where festive decorations are displayed and gifts are swapped; but what about the true meaning of christmas? The true meaning of christmas is about the fight for freedom and how in times of hardship and misery, one person leads their people to freedom as a great warrior; for those who fight for a cause are warriors and those who fight for a worthy cause are great warriors. Such an act earns respect and honour; but most importantly, brings happiness to their people. So to achieve this as happiness lies in other people's happiness and greatness lies in how you deal with little people, we selflessly think of others in the hope that they will be happy this christmas.
Hi JamieS93, have a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year 2010!

Dear JamieS93, here is a little note to say thank you for your kind vote on my request for adminship which failed with a final result of (40/19/12).
Thank you for your participation in my RfA which I withdrew after concerns of my knowledge of policy. Special thanks are owed to Coffee, who defended me throughout and whom I cannot thank enough for the nomination; to 2over0 for being supportive and helpful; to A Stop at Willoughby for the thorough, thoughtful and articulate support rationale; to IP69.226.103.13 for maintaining composure and for a pleasant interaction on my talk page and, last but not least, to Juliancolton who was good enough to close the RfA at my request and, frankly, because an editor whom I respect so much found the time to support me! If the need for more admins at the main page is still apparent in a few months, I may try again. Thank you all for a relatively drama-free RfA and for providing me with much material from which to learn from my mistakes. You're all welcome to drop by my talk page any time. God save the Queen Wiki!

Dear JamieS93,
Ah, ok to know regarding that speedy tag. To be honest, I was looking at previous empty cats that were to be deleted by clicking "edit" and spotted the c1 criteria. Thought that was the standard way to speedy delete 'em, so I've been using that one. Will now change my empty category speedies accordingly. Thanks once more!

After tolling up the votes in the revision proposals, it emerged that 5.4 had the most support, but elements of that support remained unclear, and various comments throughout the polls needed consideration.

You are receiving this message as you have voted in VOTE 3 at the Community de-Adminship 'Proposal Finalization' Poll.
It has been pointed out that VOTE 3 was confusing, and that voters have been assuming that the question was about creating an actual two-phase CDA process. The question is merely about having a two-phase poll on CDA at the eventual RfC, where the community will have their vote (eg a "yes/no for CDA” poll, followed a choice of proposal types perhaps).
As I wrote the question, I'll take responsibility for the confusion. It does make sense if read through to the end, but it certainly wasn't as clear as it should have been, or needed to be!
Please amend your vote if appropriate - it seems that many (if not most) people interpreted the question in the way that was not intended.

Hi there. In your summary for closing the Graphical interface of future operating system article, you've written that "The result was delete. Since it's so clearly WP:NOT, with zero chance, we should have been able to speedy that". Incidentally, we were able to speedy that article, and I had already, on the same day the article was created on 16 January 2010, placed a CSD tag on that page. An admin declined the speedy deletion, and suggested I take it to Afd, which I did. My question is this: who is right in this issue, the admin who declined the speedy deletion, or you, the admin who confirmed that this article should have been speedily deleted?

Hi. You deleted but then restored Template:Superleague Formula races. I would ask you to redelete it as the point was that it has merged with another template so the information is already there. It wasn't a mistake putting it up for deletion. There is another one, Template:Superleague Formula which follows the same story line by which the information has been moved in an appropriate way so as to leave the template defunct of any use. I would appreciate the deletion of both. Thanks. Officially Mr X ( talk) 20:21, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
