Why do you assume that I made my edit with the purpose to have it be "listened to"...when really what I am trying to do is my name^_^?

I came accross User talk:Willicon through Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Todd Roydon. The user had blanked that page as creator/sole contributor so the article should've been speedied as G7. Instead the blanking was reverted, the user indef'd and the article went to AfD. It seems the indef blocking was OTT. Would you care to please review it as maybe I am missing something and you could have been correct in your decision. Cheers! -- Alexf (talk) 11:41, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

The last thing I'd consciously do around here is abuse my rights. That name was far too much of a coincidence and it wouldn't have been the first variation on "Fang the Dog" over the last couple of days or so. I expressed a concern via the sockpuppet template and that's when the trolling began. Looks as if he's been blocked and has found the unblock template. If this was a coincidence and he's unblocked, then I accept that I was wrong, I offer my apologies to him and to you and I won't hassle him further. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 06:20, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Like the earthen levees (read: big piles of dirt) surrounding New Orleans, which are so primitive in comparison with the state-of-the-art metal dikes in the Netherlands, England, Germany, etc., you'll notice that, in the video on the Democracy Now piece that aired on Dec. 24, the TVA spokesman emphatically did not answer the question about what material the levees were made from. I think they're ashamed. Badagnani ( talk) 06:46, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Yes, they'd like you to think of a stout, stalwart brick, stone, or cinder-block wall. But they're basically big piles of dirt. (They're cheaper--that is why we lost a major city down here a couple of years back--because we're unwilling to invest seriously in our infrastructure, the way the Europeans are.) Many articles reflect this fact. See [1]. Badagnani ( talk) 06:53, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Sorry about putting a source in the lead. I think I just wanted to establish that it wasn't a brick or stone wall or whatever. Badagnani ( talk) 07:33, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
I don't think that's catchy enough. We should wait to see what the media starts calling it. In East Kentucky, things are usually named after the county, so Martin County coal sludge spill was logically what it would be called. For this one, it seems that "Tennessee" should be in the name.

Regarding the John the Baptist Article, you told Carl and I to stop editing regarding the dating system. I complied to the order, but Carl did not, and edited the article agaisnt your word.

I appreciate your message:
On Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus and his second deletion nomination of Radwan Dąbrowski-Żądło Family:
My apologies for what appears to be bad form regarding Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus, but nothing is invented and perfected at the same time, and it's taken time to watch the development of his second deletion request to get a grasp of Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus's tactics, given I was assuming good faith from him and giving Piotrus the benefit of the doubt, until another editor made me aware of the Arbitration Cases against Piotrus. Upon reading this, it became abundantly clear the lengths Piotrus would go to and the tactics he would resort to.
For the record, I feel his second nomination of the article concerning the Radwan Dąbrowski-Żądło Family (I am the author) is without merit, and is motivated by something other than a concern with Piotrus' assertions the family is not notable, which is patently false.
I feel there is justification for placing an estoppel, so to speak, against Piotrus nominating this particular article for deletion, especially when his deletion nomination is based upon fraudulent premises (non-notability), and a lame attempt to argue against WP:RS and {{ Cite book}}.
This is my real concern, given I now understand who I'm dealing with (Piotrus). I'm concerned an administrator, nonetheless, is making a fraudulent and insidious argument against WP:RS and {{ Cite book}}.
The family is notable. The reference works in question are verifiable and widely-published. -- Exxess ( talk) 17:51, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

The corporation of today is faced with constant challenges in providing secure and reliable access, control, and management capabilities across its network and computing infrastructure.

Thank you for your clarification. We are a collaborative project so it's best if we all understand what all of our intentions are in improving articles.

If Wikipedia is supposed to be an open forum, yet the knee-jerk reaction to an alternative viewpoint is to remove it...isn't the discontinuity obvious? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpandYourMind ( talk • contribs) 06:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
I mispoke when I called it an open forum. But, what I was stating was NOT a fringe theory, nor was it something that would need to be sourced because it was a logical deduction from previously sourced information that the existing wikipedia article already had as accepted. To clarify, I made my logical deduction by considering the current description of potential authorship within the context that the author had himself laid down, and finding it to be a flawed conclusion. He (or his source) made the conclusion that because of stylistic and grammatical differences in the text of the early greek manuscripts we have of the books of John and Revelation that the authors MUST have been different people...thus automatically precluding the possibility that it could have been the same author writing in two different states of mind. When you view the pieces in question, both extremely emotional religious works, it would seem obvious that the author(s), whoever they may be, truly believed in the veracity of their own work. To imagine that they were merely writing these texts as metaphor or commentary, in a dispassionate, clinical and academic fashion is ludicrous given the subject matter. Unfortunately, such is the subjectivity of history...those who discover the artifacts of history, historians or archaeologists or whomever, are the ones who offer the discoveries up to the rest of us, and though they may try to be as objective as possible they will still taint there observations somehow...it is kind of like the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. You can't make an observation without affecting whatever it is you are observing. Anyways, my point was that the conclusion which the author so cavalierly drew as obvious, is not necessarily so, because his point of view was limited by his assumptions...just as your point of view was limited by yours about my "opinion" ^_^ —Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpandYourMind ( talk • contribs) 23:28, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, due to vandalism, edit-warring, and general mark-up issues, I've decided not to continue my work on the South Korea page. The article definitely needs someone's help, but at this time the page is apparently too controversial and too important to nationalists (Korean or otherwise) for me to continue trying in vain to fix it up. I sincerely hope that someday the page will return to neutrality and normalcy, and when it does, I'll be there to help. In the meantime, I'd like to learn more about Wiki-gnoming. :) RlndGunslinger ( talk) 04:08, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello MoP. I saw your response to the slightly-malformed report of this issue at WP:AN3. The same reporter also notified me on my Talk page, in a more clear fashion, mentioning a previous ANI which he took the liberty of updating in the archived location. The guy doing the reverting still uses the term 'vandalism' consistently for whatever his opponents do, and his postings on Talk seem to fit the term 'diatribe' better than the phrase 'respectful search for consensus.' My inclination would be to issue a second edit-warring block, this time for multiple days. Since you've already responded at AN3, I'd like to know if this would be acceptable to you. Your editnotice seems to say that it's cool, but it would still be good to have your opinion. EdJohnston ( talk) 04:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
I want to write an article about a little know religion called Ism. However when I wrote the article was taken down due to lack of citation.

I would like to protest the deletion of the soft redirect from Compulsory under CSD criteria A5. Soft redirects are explicitly not subject to Article CSD criteria, and are supposed to be subject instead to Redirect criteria. This is because some of the article CSD criteria, if applied to soft redirects, could easily be used to delete most if not all soft redirects. A3 and A5 are particular problems. So I would ask you to please reverse your deletion of this page. - TexasAndroid ( talk) 16:36, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Hey folks, since there's two users in this talk I'll just thread this here. I promoted it to ITN on the reasoning that the removal of a state executive is, IMO, notable whether the subject himself is or not (though I'd figure it is inherent). Seemed obvious to me that this was more than Wikinews, which is why I skipped the discussion phase.
As to the portal, thanks for letting me know, I was not aware of the duplication being needed in the editing, I thought it was transcluded. Learn something new every day ;)
And lastly, I still think that it should be on the main page. While I can understand Spencer's logic in that it needs more information to make it encyclopedic and not just news, I personally don't think that anymore should or could be added to the article on the Blagojevich scandal at the time and it is a pretty descriptive article.
No matter it all, thanks for the input and the learning opportunity from all three. Keegan talk 06:12, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I'll try and report registered users this time, and if the situation requires it, maybe a couple of IP's. (If they're not shared by a school/organization.)

Hi there,
Wondering about the deletion of the Loretta Kelsey stub; the notability is that she's the last speaker of a language. There are multiple similar articles whose notability is based on that fact, wondering if there's a specific reason why this one was speedy'd? There are plenty of news articles about her. (If I recall correctly, I put the citations in the article.)

Like the earthen levees (read: big piles of dirt) surrounding New Orleans, which are so primitive in comparison with the state-of-the-art metal dikes in the Netherlands, England, Germany, etc., you'll notice that, in the video on the Democracy Now piece that aired on Dec. 24, the TVA spokesman emphatically did not answer the question about what material the levees were made from. I think they're ashamed. Badagnani ( talk) 06:46, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Yes, they'd like you to think of a stout, stalwart brick, stone, or cinder-block wall. But they're basically big piles of dirt. (They're cheaper--that is why we lost a major city down here a couple of years back--because we're unwilling to invest seriously in our infrastructure, the way the Europeans are.) Many articles reflect this fact. See [1]. Badagnani ( talk) 06:53, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Sorry about putting a source in the lead. I think I just wanted to establish that it wasn't a brick or stone wall or whatever. Badagnani ( talk) 07:33, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
I don't think that's catchy enough. We should wait to see what the media starts calling it. In East Kentucky, things are usually named after the county, so Martin County coal sludge spill was logically what it would be called. For this one, it seems that "Tennessee" should be in the name.

I appreciate your message:
On Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus and his second deletion nomination of Radwan Dąbrowski-Żądło Family:
My apologies for what appears to be bad form regarding Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus, but nothing is invented and perfected at the same time, and it's taken time to watch the development of his second deletion request to get a grasp of Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus's tactics, given I was assuming good faith from him and giving Piotrus the benefit of the doubt, until another editor made me aware of the Arbitration Cases against Piotrus. Upon reading this, it became abundantly clear the lengths Piotrus would go to and the tactics he would resort to.
For the record, I feel his second nomination of the article concerning the Radwan Dąbrowski-Żądło Family (I am the author) is without merit, and is motivated by something other than a concern with Piotrus' assertions the family is not notable, which is patently false.
I feel there is justification for placing an estoppel, so to speak, against Piotrus nominating this particular article for deletion, especially when his deletion nomination is based upon fraudulent premises (non-notability), and a lame attempt to argue against WP:RS and {{ Cite book}}.
This is my real concern, given I now understand who I'm dealing with (Piotrus). I'm concerned an administrator, nonetheless, is making a fraudulent and insidious argument against WP:RS and {{ Cite book}}.
The family is notable. The reference works in question are verifiable and widely-published. -- Exxess ( talk) 17:51, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I would like to post a company bio about our business but have read that it can only be posted by 2nd party Wikipedia writers to ensure that I do not breach conflict of interest rules. Do you know this to be true? I am new to Wikipedia so I would like to make sure I follow the rules of the land. If you have any tips on how to properly post information to gain good rankings on popular search engines, I would appreciate it very much. Thanks!

Hey I was wondering if you could adopt me, I have knowledge of PHP, HTML and BBCode, but I'm still new to wikipedia...

I have most of my tag's work on my forums(a project of mine mostly coded by me, engine is phpbb3) http://digitalsky.site40.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=9 If you are a GFX artist you should register! I 've been doing Photoshop for over a year, I can teach you some stuff in return(I'm provably gonna be a GFX artist when I grow up)
And yeah okay adopt me(I don't know the procedure)! Over the week sometimes I will be offline for a few days cause I need to study for the tests and cause I sleep somewhere else on Thursday (I have 8 school hours(a lot for me)untill 15:00 and then two trainings: table tennis and break dance :( I get to sleep at 23:15 at that time :o...)
And you should learn a bit about my country (just read wiki) Slovenia It's a breautifull country that sadly almost noone knows about it, so you 'll know something more than your friends ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Speeda psx ( talk • contribs) 18:54, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi, MoP, I'm back from the holidays and ready to get started with my first wiki page.
I'd like to create a pretty simple company page (non sales/marketing - just basic information) on my company, Pragma Systems, and make it similar to that when you read about 'Attachmate' at Wiki.
The basic information I would want to post is listed below...how would you recommend I get started? I'm reading through the tutorials on Wiki now.
Thanks!

The corporation of today is faced with constant challenges in providing secure and reliable access, control, and management capabilities across its network and computing infrastructure. With these challenges come seemingly endless requests for more - more information, more access, and more productivity.

From that point on, Pragma has delivered high quality products and services focused on Windows 2008/Vista/2003/XP/2000 operating systems. In the summer of 2006, the company continued its focus on technical innovation, and was the first in the secure connectivity segment to announce products built on the 64-bit platform.

Hello MoP. I have gone thru your userspace (pretty cool userpage!) and when I tried to look at something and editing, I got this giant sheep saying "Stop. Hammertime. Blah blah blah..." anyway, how do you get messages to appear like that when someone edits your page (the same applies to when I'm leaving you a message)? Let me know if you could because I'm interested! Thanks! K50 Dude ROCKS! 01:18, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your message reminding one not to revert. That's a very good rule which we all should follow. We should all refrain from unilaterally deleting sources from articles, then trying to force those deletions through with repeated edits (reverts?). Badagnani ( talk) 06:07, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for your clarification. We are a collaborative project so it's best if we all understand what all of our intentions are in improving articles. The data of our articles really is of paramount importance, so our users don't find articles with sources supporting various facts and figures presented in an article's text removed for reasons unknown to even the editor who removed them. Badagnani ( talk) 06:27, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Oh no. They have all been deleted again. They were all candidates for speedy deletion before they were deleted before. Could you restore them and remove them from candidates for speedy deletion? Sorry about that. Should have told you before. Maximillion Pegasus ( talk) 20:55, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi:
You sent me a warning about posting on Charley Casserly's biography. I don't understand why you sent the warning. What exactly did I do wrong? My comments were supported by footnotes that you could access and were all true, so they cannot be defamatory. Can you please explain? I would also like to mention that several other administrators agreed with my edits and reverted them. I'd like to have an honest, open discussion with you about this topic.
Thanks and regards,
Carlos Escobar —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carlosescobar ( talk • contribs) 01:20, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi: I reverted the changes to the Charley Casserly entry because they are all true and substantiated by the footnotes. Please read through them when you have time. Please contact me if you wish to discuss.

If Wikipedia is supposed to be an open forum, yet the knee-jerk reaction to an alternative viewpoint is to remove it...isn't the discontinuity obvious? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpandYourMind ( talk • contribs) 06:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
I mispoke when I called it an open forum. But, what I was stating was NOT a fringe theory, nor was it something that would need to be sourced because it was a logical deduction from previously sourced information that the existing wikipedia article already had as accepted. To clarify, I made my logical deduction by considering the current description of potential authorship within the context that the author had himself laid down, and finding it to be a flawed conclusion. He (or his source) made the conclusion that because of stylistic and grammatical differences in the text of the early greek manuscripts we have of the books of John and Revelation that the authors MUST have been different people...thus automatically precluding the possibility that it could have been the same author writing in two different states of mind. When you view the pieces in question, both extremely emotional religious works, it would seem obvious that the author(s), whoever they may be, truly believed in the veracity of their own work. To imagine that they were merely writing these texts as metaphor or commentary, in a dispassionate, clinical and academic fashion is ludicrous given the subject matter. Unfortunately, such is the subjectivity of history...those who discover the artifacts of history, historians or archaeologists or whomever, are the ones who offer the discoveries up to the rest of us, and though they may try to be as objective as possible they will still taint there observations somehow...it is kind of like the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. You can't make an observation without affecting whatever it is you are observing. Anyways, my point was that the conclusion which the author so cavalierly drew as obvious, is not necessarily so, because his point of view was limited by his assumptions...just as your point of view was limited by yours about my "opinion" ^_^ —Preceding unsigned comment added by ExpandYourMind ( talk • contribs) 23:28, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
I was hoping to start on a fun and positive note, (actually I want to learn how to edit properly first) but the advice I need most at the moment is how handle the edit conflicts brewing on my current project: South Korea. The page was protected, but now that it isn't, the Korean IP have started flooding in. Recently I left this note on a user's page:

I agree with you about the edit warring and seeing my block history, I will be stepping back for a while. I wont annoy you with claims that my edits are right, that stuff is for the talk page, however Lakshmix and wondergirls seem to be one and the same. It is understandable that two people might edit the same article, especially prominent articles such as South Korea - however they both edited http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_College_School which is an obscure school in the UK. I have no experience filing sock puppet reports, as an admin, could you take a look at it for me please? カンチョーSennen Goroshi ! ( talk) 04:30, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, due to vandalism, edit-warring, and general mark-up issues, I've decided not to continue my work on the South Korea page. The article definitely needs someone's help, but at this time the page is apparently too controversial and too important to nationalists (Korean or otherwise) for me to continue trying in vain to fix it up. I sincerely hope that someday the page will return to neutrality and normalcy, and when it does, I'll be there to help. In the meantime, I'd like to learn more about Wiki-gnoming. :) RlndGunslinger ( talk) 04:08, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello MoP. I saw your response to the slightly-malformed report of this issue at WP:AN3. The same reporter also notified me on my Talk page, in a more clear fashion, mentioning a previous ANI which he took the liberty of updating in the archived location. The guy doing the reverting still uses the term 'vandalism' consistently for whatever his opponents do, and his postings on Talk seem to fit the term 'diatribe' better than the phrase 'respectful search for consensus.' My inclination would be to issue a second edit-warring block, this time for multiple days. Since you've already responded at AN3, I'd like to know if this would be acceptable to you. Your editnotice seems to say that it's cool, but it would still be good to have your opinion. EdJohnston ( talk) 04:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
I want to write an article about a little know religion called Ism. However when I wrote the article was taken down due to lack of citation.

I would like to protest the deletion of the soft redirect from Compulsory under CSD criteria A5. Soft redirects are explicitly not subject to Article CSD criteria, and are supposed to be subject instead to Redirect criteria.

So I would ask you to please reverse your deletion of this page. - TexasAndroid ( talk) 16:36, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

I'll get more confident with experience, of course, but in the meantime, I appreciate the guidance.

Copied from my talk page, no response required
Hey folks, since there's two users in this talk I'll just thread this here. I promoted it to ITN on the reasoning that the removal of a state executive is, IMO, notable whether the subject himself is or not (though I'd figure it is inherent). Seemed obvious to me that this was more than Wikinews, which is why I skipped the discussion phase.
As to the portal, thanks for letting me know, I was not aware of the duplication being needed in the editing, I thought it was transcluded. Learn something new every day ;)
And lastly, I still think that it should be on the main page. While I can understand Spencer's logic in that it needs more information to make it encyclopedic and not just news, I personally don't think that anymore should or could be added to the article on the Blagojevich scandal at the time and it is a pretty descriptive article.
No matter it all, thanks for the input and the learning opportunity from all three. Keegan talk 06:12, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the message you dropped me. Yeah I thought there would be a problem with the fact that they might be shared IP addresses, but hey, the IP vandal template was there, so I thought I might add one for the first time, seeing as I'm now taking a less tolerant approach towards vandalism. I'll try and report registered users this time, and if the situation requires it, maybe a couple of IP's. (If they're not shared by a school/organization.) Was the IP I added shared to a school or organization? If it was I apologize -- I didn't realize at the time :D. Thanks anyway. -- SamB135 Talk Contribs 08:39, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi there,
Wondering about the deletion of the Loretta Kelsey stub; the notability is that she's the last speaker of a language. There are multiple similar articles whose notability is based on that fact, wondering if there's a specific reason why this one was speedy'd? There are plenty of news articles about her. (If I recall correctly, I put the citations in the article.)
Thanks for your consideration,

I look forward to your comments and thoughts.
Many thanks in advance,
