Hello there.
You deleted the above entry in June and I wanted to ask if you could re-instate it please? I'm quite happy to provide (in fact it is what I was about to do when I discovered it had disappeared) further information and substantiation. It is also linked from elsewhere in WP...
Thanks

HI there. Added some citation and references. Sure lots more will crop up, but for now, could you reinstate properly, or explain to me how to re-name correctly... and reinstate? Thanks. Oh yeah, and also feedback. Most of the links were what turned up in a quick google search, so I could probably find better... and I have a pile of actual physical press copies, but need to go through it for dates etc... Cheers

Why did you change my edits to Henry's page?They were correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AHaze88 ( talk • contribs) 12:45, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I am a foreigner and a simple reader of Wikipedia. Thank you very much for your job. Frankly say, Editing article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Geim, is in a wrong way, by colluding of some editors and admins there. Their IDs are: Therexbanner, Gladsmile, Narking, Christopher Connor, RobertMfromLI, NickCT, Beetstra, 7. These Users are trying by reverting correct edits of the article, and doing a sort of anagram and "misusing" information in sources, show Mr. Andre Geim (winner of 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics) is not a Jewish and he has another ethnic. They seem like pure (but a bit hidden)vandalism. All correct RS sources, like:
- http://www.scientific-computing.com/features/feature.php?feature_id=1,
- http://www.russia-ic.com/education_science/science/breakthrough/1176/,
- http://www.forward.com/articles/131944/
- http://www.gazeta.ru/science/2010/10/07_a_3426604.shtml
- http://www.kfki.hu/chemonet/osztaly/kemia/ih.pdf
- http://onnes.ph.man.ac.uk/~geim/pt.html
- http://www.forward.com/articles/131944/
- http://www.russia-ic.com/education_science/science/breakthrough/1176/
- …
clearly show that Mr. Andre Geim is a Jewish (he repeatedly mentioned about his Jewishness, [subject of self-identification]) in ethnical point of view and his family was originated from Germany(he also several times mentioned that his family are German [origin]). Nowadays German is a general word, which could means: Citizenship, Nationality, Origin, residentship, and so on. When Geim is taking about German being of his family, clearly and logically he talks about their origin before emigration to Russia. There is the same situation about Richard Feynman: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Feynman. By the way in a reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Andre_Geim_interview_to_Yedioth_Ahronoth,_Oct_15_2010,_p._25.jpg, (that several times misused by above Users) Geim also said a story concerning Jewishness (clearly in religious point of view) of his grandmother, that of course it doesn’t mean that only his grandmother was a Jewish. Now in article as I checked the history of the article, above Users by reverting the correct edits there, try to present and show by their wrong way Mr. Geim an “ethnic” German person. The point is that in any RS sources, Geim hasn’t say that he has such ethnic, and he never used word “ethnic” there. Andre Geim won the Nobel Prize in the beginning of October; unfortunately, right after his winning until now, above Users kept the text of the article in a wrong position. In any case, if you have time, please check this Users carefully. By the way USER:Gladsmile, repeatedly reverted and undid the edits there, without any explanation(even wrong one). Personaly, seems like an extrimist Vandalism. Best Alexander468 ( talk) 16:38, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I see that you've decided to expand it. Perhaps Abrams 1996, pp. 149–152 will be of some use to you. Apparently there's some uncertainty over the history. There's more in Stacy 2001, pp. 200–203 in the footnotes. Darby & Finn 1967, pp. 8 has yet another assignment of places to Domesday entries.

Parody is not specifically excluded by policy. Parody is part of comedy and thus part of the whole human experience. With the site in question it is quite clear that it is parody and thus no-one would be confused about the contents that it contains, indeed the site has a disclaimer. However, much of the power of comedy is that it sometimes hints at truth. Clearly the site is written with local knowledge, and perhaps it illustrates some of the truths of small village life in the early 21st Century in rural Wiltshire: viz: mindless ethno-centrism, belief in false and grand histories, and an underlying whiff of fascism and the brutality of rural life! Oh the sound of shotguns at the weekend and the slaughter of wildlife! Nonetheless it certainly demonstrates some of the conventions of comedy and indeed would appear to be in the tradition established by Aristophanes and the great comics of antiquity, see, for example, The Acharnians, and in particular the transition in the site to generalised situations. Being encyclopaedic requires a rounded view, adding a link to a parody site allows browsers to get a rounded view, and at truths other than those determined by editors. While it may tickle the ribs, it may also assist with greater understanding, not only of how village life is seen, but also in how comedy is understood. Encyclopaedic does not necessarily mean dry and humourless, indeed entries on other individuals do include comedy. The actor Joe Mantegna who plays both serious roles and Fat Tony in the Simpsons describes in some detail his sense of humour, including jokes. Entries on the comedian Eddie Izzard contain links to external sites who's intention is also comedy. Same Spike Milligan. Should these be removed, and the performers art described in excruciatingly (but correctly cited) dry detail? Surely not, and if not for Izzard, Milligan, et al, then also not for the small petite ville nestled in the Cotswold countryside. Rigid interpretation of Wikipedia policies stifles rather than nurtures, and it is important that this truly important encyclopedia does allow the exploration of issues in a fuller sense, and captures a greater example of the human experience. I therefore conclude that this site, which is definitely local, about the village concerned in the Wikipedia entry, and is also a parody, is important to add in the External Links section concerned.

Rod, it's not going to do your nerves or anything else any good to continue posting at Malleus's talkpage.

Your perception of what is proper is seriously out of kilter with that of the community - the current problem is not MF but you. You have no hope in hell in passing an Admin Review or AfD, and if you believe that the project needs you and your tools then the way to keep them is to stay clear of these issues. Truly, it isn't worth it and your flags. Sorry, but it has to be said. LessHeard vanU ( talk) 02:03, 14 November 2010 (UTC)*I will block you for a day if you post again, uninvited, on Malleus' page or on a talkpage where you had not previously commented in response to a post by Malleus (obvious exceptions such as WP:RfAR or WP:RfC apply, of course). Now, I hope you know that I am prepared to do this as much for your benefit as the project - and then that leaves you two options, wheelwar (and I might not flatter myself in believing I have as much gravitas as you do) or eat crow. Neither is worth just dropping the matter. Wherever you are going, it does not need to be dragging this shit along with it. Just step the fuck away, alright?
When I ran my RfA, I made it plain that I saw recall as a broken process, since from the candidate's POV, it was possible to set up criteria that could never be satisfied. Accordingly, I opted out. Recall is, and remains, a voluntary process. Unless and until it it imposed by the community as a necessary addition to RfA, it's of little value. Rodhull andemu 03:14, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:Optimized image 8a0da726.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

You reverted my contribution:
Using Audacity, the free audio editor, it is possible to reverse this section (select section with mouse, then use function Effect+Reverse) and slow down the speed Effect+Change Speed... to make it more intelligible. This function changes speed based on turntable speeds (78rpm, 45rpm & 33⅓rpm). If the speed is changed from 45rpm to 33⅓rpm, then it does sound rather like "Will Paul come back as Superman?". However, if the speed is slowed down from 78rpm to 33⅓rpm, then the result is more diffuse and could, indeed, appear to sound like "We'll fuck you like Superman" although it is far from clear.
My notes were:
This contribution is original research, but is something that can easily be replicated. I am surprised nobody has noted before that the speed of playback makes a difference...
My question is, did you attempt to replicate and verify my findings?!? I appreciate that there is a need to provide references where possible. In this case I explained how to verify what I recognise as original research. Did you try this?
For your convenience, I have uploaded the resulting audio files to mediafire.com
The first is, of course, an mp3 audio file, the second is the native Audacity file format.
Both files have the same audio content in four segments:
What do you think? In my humble opinion, in take 2 and particularly 3, it seems the most coherent interpretation is "Will Paul come back as Superman?" with not much apparent ambiguity. However, if you slow it down still further, the words seem to become more diffuse and a hard k sound seems to emerge which is probably why some think they hear "We'll fuck you like
Superman" ... although this needs a little more imagination. I have also copied this content to the
talk page.

i added bernard matthews to the deaths in november 2010 how come you didnt think this appropriate ~~ohnoshespassed~~
Yeah, I guess you're right man. Sorry about that, I got really annoyed after viewing some of his footage. I personally don't see it as prejudice as his material is offensive to other ethnicities. Yeah, glad you appreciate that. I couldn't believe it when the Clouds who are a scottish band were down as Londoners! What did I do on the Groundhogs again? How do you go about accessing a list of your previously edited pages? Mirrorball95 ( talk) 00:20, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
I've never actually heard of 'The Nice'. Will need to check them out. I'm not exactly a huge fan of Clouds or anything, I just happened to discover them a few weeks back and was reading about them on here. Thats amazing was it a vinyl copy or a Cd? The amazing thing about Groundhogs is the length of time they've been going. Still touring to this day I believe. You're lucky to have seen them live in their hey-day. Take it you're into your blues then? Ever heard a guitarist called Alvin Lee? He was in a band called Ten Years After who played at Woodstock. 'Goin Home' was their big track. He has this album called 'Live in Vienna' which is amazing. Robin Trower's another one, seen him live this year in Glasgow and he still owns the guitar despite being 65 years old! Mirrorball95 ( talk) 00:52, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
Cool, I checked them out. So this is where Keith Emerson started out. I have a few of ELP's albums and they're really good. So you've seen Trower live? What tour/period was it? Im a huge fan of his. At least you've 'aged' in style. I'm 21 & I'd give anything to go back and see those guys live in their heyday. Mirrorball95 ( talk) 14:27, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

There is a discussion taking place on my talkpage with a user called myquadbike that arose out of deletions I made at Carol Vorderman and Kirsty Gallagher, which were links to a commercial webpage for the woman that made Vorderman's dress for the recent Pride of Britain ceremony.

Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of this article know that it will be appearing as the main page featured article on December 8, 2010. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 8, 2010. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article director, Raul654 ( talk · contribs).

John Lennon (1940–1980) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who achieved worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles. Lennon and Paul McCartney formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century. Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon's first band, The Quarrymen, evolved into The Beatles in 1960. As the group began to undergo the disintegration that led to their break-up at the end of that decade, Lennon launched a solo career that would span the next, punctuated by critically acclaimed albums, including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as " Give Peace a Chance" and " Imagine". Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit, and he became controversial through his work as a peace activist. He moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by Richard Nixon's administration to deport him. His songs were adapted as anthems by the anti-war movement. He took a sabbatical from the music business in 1975 to devote time to his family but reemerged in 1980 with a comeback album, Double Fantasy, but was murdered three weeks after its release.

The List of historians has been messed around and I've found out that it's a user called Rjensen. I saw that notable historians had been removed and there were lots of red link names that could be anyone, so I set about removing them until I came to the name Geoffrey Parker. I know his work and alarm bells rang. now I realised the () in the names were to make them red links. Rjensen has deliberately been removing Historian from them. Is this Rjensen a Sockpuppet of a known vandal?
Would it be possible for me to have rollback rights? I have not bothered before, but these recent edits by Rjensen have messed the historian page. Many thanks.-- BSTemple ( talk) 18:03, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I am a foreigner and a simple reader of Wikipedia. Thank you very much for your job. Frankly say, Editing article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Geim, is in a wrong way, by colluding of some editors and admins there. Their IDs are: Therexbanner, Gladsmile, Narking, Christopher Connor, RobertMfromLI, NickCT, Beetstra, 7. These Users are trying by reverting correct edits of the article, and doing a sort of anagram and "misusing" information in sources, show Mr. Andre Geim (winner of 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics) is not a Jewish and he has another ethnic. They seem like pure (but a bit hidden)vandalism. All correct RS sources, like:
- http://www.scientific-computing.com/features/feature.php?feature_id=1,
- http://www.russia-ic.com/education_science/science/breakthrough/1176/,
- http://www.forward.com/articles/131944/
- http://www.gazeta.ru/science/2010/10/07_a_3426604.shtml
- http://www.kfki.hu/chemonet/osztaly/kemia/ih.pdf
- http://onnes.ph.man.ac.uk/~geim/pt.html
- http://www.forward.com/articles/131944/
- http://www.russia-ic.com/education_science/science/breakthrough/1176/
- …
clearly show that Mr. Andre Geim is a Jewish (he repeatedly mentioned about his Jewishness, [subject of self-identification]) in ethnical point of view and his family was originated from Germany(he also several times mentioned that his family are German [origin]). Nowadays German is a general word, which could means: Citizenship, Nationality, Origin, residentship, and so on. When Geim is taking about German being of his family, clearly and logically he talks about their origin before emigration to Russia. There is the same situation about Richard Feynman: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Feynman. By the way in a reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Andre_Geim_interview_to_Yedioth_Ahronoth,_Oct_15_2010,_p._25.jpg, (that several times misused by above Users) Geim also said a story concerning Jewishness (clearly in religious point of view) of his grandmother, that of course it doesn’t mean that only his grandmother was a Jewish. Now in article as I checked the history of the article, above Users by reverting the correct edits there, try to present and show by their wrong way Mr. Geim an “ethnic” German person. The point is that in any RS sources, Geim hasn’t say that he has such ethnic, and he never used word “ethnic” there. Andre Geim won the Nobel Prize in the beginning of October; unfortunately, right after his winning until now, above Users kept the text of the article in a wrong position. In any case, if you have time, please check this Users carefully. By the way USER:Gladsmile, repeatedly reverted and undid the edits there, without any explanation(even wrong one). Personaly, seems like an extrimist Vandalism. Best Alexander468 ( talk) 16:38, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I see that you've decided to expand it. Perhaps Abrams 1996, pp. 149–152 will be of some use to you. Apparently there's some uncertainty over the history. There's more in Stacy 2001, pp. 200–203 in the footnotes. Darby & Finn 1967, pp. 8 has yet another assignment of places to Domesday entries.

Parody is not specifically excluded by policy. Parody is part of comedy and thus part of the whole human experience. With the site in question it is quite clear that it is parody and thus no-one would be confused about the contents that it contains, indeed the site has a disclaimer. However, much of the power of comedy is that it sometimes hints at truth. Clearly the site is written with local knowledge, and perhaps it illustrates some of the truths of small village life in the early 21st Century in rural Wiltshire: viz: mindless ethno-centrism, belief in false and grand histories, and an underlying whiff of fascism and the brutality of rural life! Oh the sound of shotguns at the weekend and the slaughter of wildlife! Nonetheless it certainly demonstrates some of the conventions of comedy and indeed would appear to be in the tradition established by Aristophanes and the great comics of antiquity, see, for example, The Acharnians, and in particular the transition in the site to generalised situations. Being encyclopaedic requires a rounded view, adding a link to a parody site allows browsers to get a rounded view, and at truths other than those determined by editors. While it may tickle the ribs, it may also assist with greater understanding, not only of how village life is seen, but also in how comedy is understood. Encyclopaedic does not necessarily mean dry and humourless, indeed entries on other individuals do include comedy. The actor Joe Mantegna who plays both serious roles and Fat Tony in the Simpsons describes in some detail his sense of humour, including jokes. Entries on the comedian Eddie Izzard contain links to external sites who's intention is also comedy. Same Spike Milligan. Should these be removed, and the performers art described in excruciatingly (but correctly cited) dry detail? Surely not, and if not for Izzard, Milligan, et al, then also not for the small petite ville nestled in the Cotswold countryside. Rigid interpretation of Wikipedia policies stifles rather than nurtures, and it is important that this truly important encyclopedia does allow the exploration of issues in a fuller sense, and captures a greater example of the human experience. I therefore conclude that this site, which is definitely local, about the village concerned in the Wikipedia entry, and is also a parody, is important to add in the External Links section concerned.

Your perception of what is proper is seriously out of kilter with that of the community - the current problem is not MF but you. You have no hope in hell in passing an Admin Review or AfD, and if you believe that the project needs you and your tools then the way to keep them is to stay clear of these issues. Truly, it isn't worth it and your flags. Sorry, but it has to be said. LessHeard vanU ( talk) 02:03, 14 November 2010 (UTC)*I will block you for a day if you post again, uninvited, on Malleus' page or on a talkpage where you had not previously commented in response to a post by Malleus (obvious exceptions such as WP:RfAR or WP:RfC apply, of course). Now, I hope you know that I am prepared to do this as much for your benefit as the project - and then that leaves you two options, wheelwar (and I might not flatter myself in believing I have as much gravitas as you do) or eat crow. Neither is worth just dropping the matter. Wherever you are going, it does not need to be dragging this shit along with it. Just step the fuck away, alright?
When I ran my RfA, I made it plain that I saw recall as a broken process, since from the candidate's POV, it was possible to set up criteria that could never be satisfied. Accordingly, I opted out. Recall is, and remains, a voluntary process. Unless and until it it imposed by the community as a necessary addition to RfA, it's of little value. Rodhull andemu 03:14, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:Optimized image 8a0da726.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Okay fair enough, as someone who sounds like a guy whos been around here a while how do you explain this without bias to either party. Kelvin MacKenzie (Guest): Well, she gave a good interview but of course she’s been brought up in the limelight. It was quite a nice thing for her to say, I must say, about her dead father. I have much more significant question about how and why some of those children were born and under what circumstances they were born – and whether he, in the end, would have turned out to be a great father. Certainly, there are aspects to him which I think your audience would raise their eyebrows.
It isn't exactly an unbiased statement. Sorry for got 2 sign Audience awareness ( talk) 02:41, 19 November 2010 (UTC)Audience awareness Audience awareness ( talk) 02:41, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
LOL fair play. But this is the frustrating thing as you said with his history, how can This Morning dignify his actions and then bring him back again hours after sending us a email saying sorry if we offended you. How did they expect us to feel when you see him there back again just a slap in the face of the people who complained. It's hard not to be biasd ya know? It's as if they are saying well what he said was acceptable when it clearly wasn't and people believe these people which is the frightening thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Audience awareness ( talk • contribs) 02:53, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello. I'm sending you a message as you seem to be one of the most active people editing the Dauntsey's article - active on Wikipedia this is, if not on the article in question. The main person I'd like to ask seems not to have contributed here for months. As I have said on the talk page for the article, it is in no way clear what is meant by All Saints and All Souls in the list of former pupils. I wonder whether you can help.-- Oxonian2006 ( talk) 14:20, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
OK, i changed the genre of A Day in the Life beacause don't have source, i've been searching some source to put it like a reference in the genre, thanks for the welcome. P.S. In the Child in Time article, are various users changin' the genre, and don't have source all the extra genres like Progressive, Psychedelic and Folk Rock, i think that some administrator must be generalize the genres Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.-- TheBloodrocker666 ( talk) 00:20, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Rod, just to inform you: your deletion of this file was not correct. The Commons copy was missing essential source information which is urgently needed in the Commons move process.

We were having a conversation about something. I started it, we cleared up the issue, so I removed it. It is no longer of any relevance.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Henson-g.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 15:33, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
You reverted my contribution:
Using Audacity, the free audio editor, it is possible to reverse this section (select section with mouse, then use function Effect+Reverse) and slow down the speed Effect+Change Speed... to make it more intelligible. This function changes speed based on turntable speeds (78rpm, 45rpm & 33⅓rpm). If the speed is changed from 45rpm to 33⅓rpm, then it does sound rather like "Will Paul come back as Superman?". However, if the speed is slowed down from 78rpm to 33⅓rpm, then the result is more diffuse and could, indeed, appear to sound like "We'll fuck you like Superman" although it is far from clear.
My notes were:
This contribution is original research, but is something that can easily be replicated. I am surprised nobody has noted before that the speed of playback makes a difference...
My question is, did you attempt to replicate and verify my findings?!? I appreciate that there is a need to provide references where possible. In this case I explained how to verify what I recognise as original research. Did you try this?
For your convenience, I have uploaded the resulting audio files to mediafire.com
The first is, of course, an mp3 audio file, the second is the native Audacity file format.
Both files have the same audio content in four segments:
What do you think? In my humble opinion, in take 2 and particularly 3, it seems the most coherent interpretation is "Will Paul come back as Superman?" with not much apparent ambiguity. However, if you slow it down still further, the words seem to become more diffuse and a hard k sound seems to emerge which is probably why some think they hear "We'll fuck you like
Superman" ... although this needs a little more imagination. I have also copied this content to the
talk page.

Yeah, I guess you're right man. Sorry about that, I got really annoyed after viewing some of his footage. I personally don't see it as prejudice as his material is offensive to other ethnicities. Yeah, glad you appreciate that. I couldn't believe it when the Clouds who are a scottish band were down as Londoners! What did I do on the Groundhogs again? How do you go about accessing a list of your previously edited pages? Mirrorball95 ( talk) 00:20, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
I've never actually heard of 'The Nice'. Will need to check them out. I'm not exactly a huge fan of Clouds or anything, I just happened to discover them a few weeks back and was reading about them on here. Thats amazing was it a vinyl copy or a Cd? The amazing thing about Groundhogs is the length of time they've been going. Still touring to this day I believe. You're lucky to have seen them live in their hey-day. Take it you're into your blues then? Ever heard a guitarist called Alvin Lee? He was in a band called Ten Years After who played at Woodstock. 'Goin Home' was their big track. He has this album called 'Live in Vienna' which is amazing. Robin Trower's another one, seen him live this year in Glasgow and he still owns the guitar despite being 65 years old! Mirrorball95 ( talk) 00:52, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
Cool, I checked them out. So this is where Keith Emerson started out. I have a few of ELP's albums and they're really good. So you've seen Trower live? What tour/period was it? Im a huge fan of his. At least you've 'aged' in style. I'm 21 & I'd give anything to go back and see those guys live in their heyday. Mirrorball95 ( talk) 14:27, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

There is a discussion taking place on my talkpage with a user called myquadbike that arose out of deletions I made at Carol Vorderman and Kirsty Gallagher, which were links to a commercial webpage for the woman that made Vorderman's dress for the recent Pride of Britain ceremony. The conversation is polite and amicable but I do not have the detailed knowledge to steer this chap to policy centres and suitable discussions. Could you possibly wade in with any suggestions?

Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of this article know that it will be appearing as the main page featured article on December 8, 2010. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 8, 2010. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured article director, Raul654 ( talk · contribs). If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :D Thanks!

John Lennon (1940–1980) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who achieved worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles. Lennon and Paul McCartney formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century. Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon's first band, The Quarrymen, evolved into The Beatles in 1960. As the group began to undergo the disintegration that led to their break-up at the end of that decade, Lennon launched a solo career that would span the next, punctuated by critically acclaimed albums, including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as " Give Peace a Chance" and " Imagine". Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit, and he became controversial through his work as a peace activist. He moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by Richard Nixon's administration to deport him. His songs were adapted as anthems by the anti-war movement. He took a sabbatical from the music business in 1975 to devote time to his family but reemerged in 1980 with a comeback album, Double Fantasy, but was murdered three weeks after its release.

Hello. On 22:35, 23 August 2010 you seem to have deleted locally File:Anagarika.jpg due to availability on Wikimedia Commons. Did you happen to notice that in the Commons upload made by commons:user:Stanqo, the uploader claimed himself as the author of the image? Moreover, given the image contents, do you find this attribution authentic? I dare to doubt so...

The List of historians has been messed around and I've found out that it's a user called Rjensen. I saw that notable historians had been removed and there were lots of red link names that could be anyone, so I set about removing them until I came to the name Geoffrey Parker. I know his work and alarm bells rang. now I realised the () in the names were to make them red links. Rjensen has deliberately been removing Historian from them. Is this Rjensen a Sockpuppet of a known vandal?
Would it be possible for me to have rollback rights? I have not bothered before, but these recent edits by Rjensen have messed the historian page. Many thanks.-- BSTemple ( talk) 18:03, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi there. You've reverted my edits from Two_Pints_of_Lager_and_a_Packet_of_Crisps and thank you for believing in my good faith in this case. Still, although the article remains aligned with Wikipedia:Spoiler rules, it contains information that are really unpleasant for readers. There are two things to be done: use Wikipedia:Ignore_all_rules rule or rewrite the article. Could you advise which solution you prefer?
