Hi. I noticed that you posted a {{ afd}} on Shayne van Vlerken for AFD a while back. Are you still writing the AFD rationale? In case you didn't know, you should follow the procedure laid out in WP:AFD and create Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shayne van Vlerken, then link it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2006 June 24. Thanks. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 01:40, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi saw you on the AFD I did for Alex Jackson - I'm a north shropshire boy myself - Ellesmere (middle of nowhere near Oswestry).

Britton LaRoche has stated that he/she has no intention at all of removing the libel/slander rings. Additionally, he/she is going after you elsewhere [1]. You will probably need to go ahead and have the offending images removed yourself. IrishGuy talk 03:43, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Odd question - can you do tell me what the problem with the "images" was? were they photoshops of photos to look like sketches?
-- Charlesknight 22:33, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
No problem - I too am familar with photoshop and well you can guess the rest... -- Charlesknight 22:55, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
:I'll save you the trouble. In short, the 8th criterion for speedy deletion of an image is an image created solely to disparage its subject or some other entity (another user, in this case). Basically the same as the no-attack rule for articles. ~

You created Npower (UK). This article about a company does not meet the standards at WP:CORP. I have proposed its deletion. If you can bring it up to snuff, please do so and remove the {{prod}} tag. GRBerry 14:36, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you so much! I'm still not getting what I am doing wrong. And is that what I add to the log -- {{subst:afd3}} ? Usually I just copy the format I see on the log. I'm in a discussion with a Village Pump Technical guy right now on this subject who helped me on my last one this morning.
Othertimes I've done it without any problem. I've tried to understand all the directions given, but I'm not very technical, I guess. You are saying that the steps should be in this order:
Right? How could you tell what I was doing? (This Wiki is very mysterious to me.) KarenAnn 17:18, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment about my article. The Philosophy of God. This is not an essay or research article. This was written from common sense and observation. Every person knows these things deeply but are not willing to say it. By you marking this article for deletion you are saying that you determine what people will know and when. You fall in the category of intellectual believer.-- Tunmire 12:46, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
I refer to your message a dozen times a day. It's been invaluable.
Also, you mentioned watching the newly-created articles list. How do you do that? The closest I can come is watching the Recent changes list. Newly-created articles list sounds really interesting. KarenAnn 14:19, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello Matticus78 I have decided to put two of my articles on my website to en.wikipedia.org so that more people may benefit from them. These are named "oil and gas exploration in turkey" and "geology of turkey". I have put a back-links to the original article so that people can browse through the my web-site for more related articles. However, I received an error message stating possibility of copyright infringement. I am the writer of these articles sot there is not a case of copyright infringement. I kindly request you to remove this warning and enable the pages. Thank you for helping run such a great service! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lifia ( talk • contribs)
Hi Matticus, I just wanted to let you know that I changed the Todd Kelly copyvio tag to a speedy copyvio. It was created in the last 48 hours and both versions of it were copyright violations so it doesn't need to be listed at Copyright Problems. Cheers, Sarah Ewart ( Talk) 09:56, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up re db-advert. Why does the template exist? It should be deleted. I don't agree with your db-empty however; the article doesn't seem to fall foul of those criteria. -- Dweller 10:01, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
You tagged Sally Gardner for speedy deletion. I wanted to let you know that the article has now been significantly expanded, and demonstrates that she is a notable English children's author. TruthbringerToronto ( Talk | contribs) 10:57, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
While I greatly apprecite you tagging unsourced images, they will be deleted in time, don't put them in CSD. CSD is for things that are urgent; they arn't. If some image is particuarly a problem, it's OK, but don't do it en masse. You'll just piss off the people (like me) clearing out CSD. JesseW, the juggling janitor 23:08, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the head-up on Stephen Demainbray. I redid an article, but don't know how to clean up the mess, could you see to it, thanks ? Chris CII 18:28, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello. Thanks for the edits, but you didn't go far enough. Upon further research, it appears another article covers the topic. However, I think there are some neutrality issues with the Pop Culture section. The author calls Selective Photography "old hat" and I think that demonstrates a personal POV rather than neutral fact. What do you think? But I am reluctant to tag it as such since it might appear I am taking issue due to my conflicting listing of Spot color photography.

Hi, just letting you know that I entered the FreestyleMax entry on wikipedia and as FreestyleMax The Snowboard Instructor is a new product, there are hard sources to externally verify my claims. The Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors (CASI) wrote a one page article in their newsletter to snowboard instructors about FreestyleMax in October 2006. CASI is an independent organisation and they printed an article on page 13 of their newsletter called Boarderline. Snowboard instructors in Australia used FreestyleMax this season and it was officially endorsed by the Australian snowboard body, APSI (Australian Professional Snow Sports Instructors) in June this year. The National Training Coordinator and Technical Director, Jason Clauscen can be contacted at APSI to verify this endorsement. With two snowboard instructor bodies saying they can see useful application of FreestyleMax, I believe makes it worthy of entry. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Freestylemax ( talk • contribs) 11:10, 9 December 2006 (UTC).
Sir/Madame ,
1.Thank you very much for so considerately showing me the way forward. 2.I will follow your invaluable guidance so that the article becomes more useful and in tune with the WIKI policies.

Well i just added this to my talk page but how do i get an image of homer simpson onto my wiki without violating a copyright (if there is one). Well you know i just joined like the 1st of this month so please help. You can either tell me on my or your talk page-- Ebell2 01:10, 22 December 2006 (UTC) Thanks Matticus you have got to be the most helpful page patroller. However reading what you said i don't think i'll be adding a picture because i my self saying this text could risk getting myself banned. About my deleted page i meant for that to be my user page sorry for waisting your time with that junk.
Hello. I noticed you put a request for a diagram of evolutionary stages of the eye on WP:RP a couple of weeks back. Well, I decided to flex my illustrative muscles and put together something that I hope meets the requirements of the article. It's similar in some respects to the Strickberger image you linked to in the request, but I kept it quite simple for the sake of clarity. Of course, I'm no biologist, so if there are any mistakes I've made, or any improvements you can suggest, I'll revise the image to make it suitable. ~ Matticus78 16:40, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Good job, but... If you could provide this image in the scalable SVG format, I'd be happy to propose it for Featured Picture status. -- Janke | Talk 11:16, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
