Why should I get the same punishment as a sockpuppeteer who denies he is a sockpuppeteer? BhaiSaab talk 16:37, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey Srikeit, here's a formal thanks for your nomination. Now I'll probably learn faster how to log onto IRC:) -- Lost (talk) 09:34, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
You deleted this page a couple of weeks ago and I cannot tell why. Can you restore the text, or is my work lost?
Hi Srikeit, I am very thankful to you for supporting and comments on my succesful RfA. Shyam ( T/ C) 06:32, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
I have my sources. :P — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 07:11, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
Why did you delete the Soul Weaver page? It was all factual and NOT plagerized material. It presented information about a new religious movement. The best answer I received so far is "conflict of interest". With who? I don't get it. My first contribution to wiki was not a plesant one! Grant swm 21:55, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Why was the article on Pbrain deleted? The comments said it was an expired product, but it is a recent extension to the Brainfuck programming language. 192.127.94.7
Hi. I see you're doing some clerking for ArbCom now; hope you enjoy it. Quick suggestion: I think that wangi, who filed the case, should probably be listed as a party to the Konstable arbitration. Not that I am suugesting any action of any kind should be taken against wangi, but as a matter of form and to make sure he's getting the right notices, etc. Regards, Newyorkbrad 02:57, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi :-) I saw your ping. Sorry I missed you. If you were asking about the above case you closed; it looks GREAT! It was a tricky one too. Take care, FloNight 17:17, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't understand why you deleted "Tagetik" page.
I look for the other Corporate performance management vendors pages and I can't find the reason why only Tagetik has been deleted.
Could you please explain me?
Many thanks

I looks like a number of statements of non -parties have disappeared; they need to be copied to the talk page of the main case page. Also you need to set the majority. Thanks. Thatcher131 00:27, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Namaskar Srikeit,
I hoped I would perhaps run into you at WP:DYK but the arbCom case has frankly gotten creepier day by day. Please look at Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar/Workshop#Harassment_may_result_in_a_block_or_ban, Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar/Workshop#Wikistalking_by_BhaiSaab and Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar/Workshop#Ikonoblast. Bakaman Bakatalk 01:24, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
You are welcome. :) Jacek Kendysz 11:20, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello, Srikeit. RfAr ScienceApologist has changed since it was opened. Most of my statement is missing. The evidence space I reserved on the Evidence page is missing. Would you happen to know what's going on here? Asmodeus 14:07, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

You recently deleted XDForum:
15:56, November 30, 2006 Srikeit (Talk | contribs) deleted "XDForum" (expired prod) [1]
I am requesting it be undeleted. Any reason why it was deleted, "expired prod" is not exactly a "informative deletion reason" (in fact it is asked not to use that)?
Wikipedia:Proposed_deletion#Procedure_for_admins
Zujik 12:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
You may take this matter to WP:DRV if you wish or re-create the article if you wish (I have emailed you the content). I would also like to point out that the article had been PRODded for seven days at the time of deletion (i.e two days overdue). Also it is the obligation of the editor proposing the deletion, to inform the creator of the article about the prod. Nevertheless I apologize for any inconvenience caused. Thanks -- Srikeit 05:14, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
Could you specify what language this is spoken in? Also consider uploading it to Commons. If you do, use the format xx-file_name.ogg where xx is the current language code. If possible, try to specify the age, sex and place of residence and/or birth of the speaker.

The RFAr/Sex Tourism case now has 4 net votes. Are you still interested in opening it?? -- FloNight 20:39, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
As you know, Essjay redid the main CU page so that pending cases are listed on RFCU/Pending rather than the main page. Unfortunately, the closed case header on all the old closed cases still points to the main CU page. I was hoping you could use AWB to fix all the old cases. The url in the case header
[http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser&action=edit§ion=1 here]
needs to be changed to [http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Pending&action=edit§ion=1 here]
on every subpage of RFCU/Case where it appears. Can you do it? Thatcher131 01:36, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
There's the list (sorry my IRC connection dropped) as a wikilinked list (just fixed it) it it helps? Glen 08:37, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Posted a Wikipedia article on Santa America a few weeks ago. It was deleted due to a {prod}. I'm not entirely sure why it was flagged for deletion. Can't see the discussion on it since it is now gone...
Any information on why the article was deleted and what needs to be done for encyclopedic validity would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
-- JasonStewartElf 20:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello, I need assistance in how to report something, regarding the new ArbCom case at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Naming Conventions. Part of the conflict has to do with non-consensus page moves. However, one of the involved users Yaksha ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) is continuing to engage in page moves of hundreds of pages, without consensus or any attempt at RM procedure. How do I request an injunction to get these moves to stop and/or be reverted, while the ArbCom case is in-process? Some of the evidence that I would like to present involves pointers to current categories, but if everything gets moved, I won't be able to provide clear examples. :/ Plus, this constant stream of moves is just escalating tension and exacerbating the situation. -- El on ka 22:56, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Dear. Srikeit I am writing to you regarding the Sacha Baron Cohen article. For the past few months there has been an argument regarding the Sacha Baron Cohen’s mother. There are four reputable sources that say she is a Persian Jew. However there are some users who believe this is not true. Their argument is that the sources have taken their information from Wikipedia. People who share this belief however fail to provide any evidence that the sources are quoting a vandalized wikipedia article. After much debate with one of the users who shared this belief it was decided to leave the Persian Jew in the article until they can prove that the sources were quoting wikipedia. Recently a user by the name of Abu Ali has been editing the Persian Jew out without providing any evidence that the sources were using wikipedia. I have tried to reason with him however he continues to edit the article without providing any evidence or logic for that matter. I have never talked to an admin regarding a dispute so I am not sure about the process. If you could take a look at this matter I would be grateful.
Regard, Klymen 12:01, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi Srikeit. You posted a notificatoin on my talk page regarding the Brahma Kumaris Arbitration case [ [3]]. I am in the process of preparing evidence now but would like to know how long I have to submit it. The Wikipedia:Arbitration_policy suggests that the time is one week. Have I understood that right? Would that be one week from me receiving the invite? I ask since I, along with other editors, were brought into the case later.
Also I am curious to know if me and the other late-comers should make "statements" in the same way that User:195.82.106.244 and User:Riveros11 did. Or was that just for the case to be accepted?
I have also asked a question about timescales on the talk page [4] but have sofar received no reply. Was that the right place to ask?
Thanks & regards Bksimonb 17:56, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi! I would like to request you to put your thoughts into the Sindhi-language talkpage. A Wikipedian switched the order of Sindhi and Devanagari on the article page. This was minor, but I thought is was a type of POV-pushing and an unjustified edit. Sindhi is a language that has been written in many scripts over the course of its history. The Sindhi-Arabic script is the only one used in Pakistan, where the vast majority of Sindhi speakers are located (around 19 million). Even in India, where 2 million Sindhi speakers live, Sindhi-Arabic script is actually more popular than Devanagari because the latter was introduced by the Gov't in 1948. So despite the fact that Sindhi-Arabic script is the most popular and commonly-used script for the Sindhi language, users are pushing for Devanagari to precede Sindhi-Arabic on the Sindhi language page. And although this is a very very minor issue, I think it should be address to the benefit of a major language's article page to be accurate and encyclopedic. Thank you, and best wishes-- Mar de Sin Speak up! 01:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi
with regards the arbitration for the BKWSU topic page, here; [5] may I request that Sethie is co-joined as they are having equal or greater influence onto the page than many of the other users named making entire article reversions and influencing discussion?

Evening Secret, just dropped by to say that if you had a normal username, I might be able to remember how to spell it... ;p Essjay (Talk) 06:10, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I see that you have removed votes cast by users before they were banned. Surely these votes are valid and should stand? Abu ali 12:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I need assistance in how to report something, regarding the new ArbCom case at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Naming Conventions. Part of the conflict has to do with non-consensus page moves. However, one of the involved users Yaksha ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) is continuing to engage in page moves of hundreds of pages, without consensus or any attempt at RM procedure. How do I request an injunction to get these moves to stop and/or be reverted, while the ArbCom case is in-process? Some of the evidence that I would like to present involves pointers to current categories, but if everything gets moved, I won't be able to provide clear examples. :/ Plus, this constant stream of moves is just escalating tension and exacerbating the situation. -- El on ka 22:56, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Dear. Srikeit I am writing to you regarding the Sacha Baron Cohen article. For the past few months there has been an argument regarding the Sacha Baron Cohen’s mother. There are four reputable sources that say she is a Persian Jew. However there are some users who believe this is not true. Their argument is that the sources have taken their information from Wikipedia. People who share this belief however fail to provide any evidence that the sources are quoting a vandalized wikipedia article. After much debate with one of the users who shared this belief it was decided to leave the Persian Jew in the article until they can prove that the sources were quoting wikipedia. Recently a user by the name of Abu Ali has been editing the Persian Jew out without providing any evidence that the sources were using wikipedia. I have tried to reason with him however he continues to edit the article without providing any evidence or logic for that matter. I have never talked to an admin regarding a dispute so I am not sure about the process. If you could take a look at this matter I would be grateful.

Hi Srikeit. You posted a notificatoin on my talk page regarding the Brahma Kumaris Arbitration case [ [3]]. I am in the process of preparing evidence now but would like to know how long I have to submit it. The Wikipedia:Arbitration_policy suggests that the time is one week. Have I understood that right? Would that be one week from me receiving the invite? I ask since I, along with other editors, were brought into the case later.
Also I am curious to know if me and the other late-comers should make "statements" in the same way that User:195.82.106.244 and User:Riveros11 did. Or was that just for the case to be accepted?
I have also asked a question about timescales on the talk page [4] but have sofar received no reply. Was that the right place to ask?
Thanks & regards Bksimonb 17:56, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi! I would like to request you to put your thoughts into the Sindhi-language talkpage. A Wikipedian switched the order of Sindhi and Devanagari on the article page. This was minor, but I thought is was a type of POV-pushing and an unjustified edit. Sindhi is a language that has been written in many scripts over the course of its history. The Sindhi-Arabic script is the only one used in Pakistan, where the vast majority of Sindhi speakers are located (around 19 million). Even in India, where 2 million Sindhi speakers live, Sindhi-Arabic script is actually more popular than Devanagari because the latter was introduced by the Gov't in 1948. So despite the fact that Sindhi-Arabic script is the most popular and commonly-used script for the Sindhi language, users are pushing for Devanagari to precede Sindhi-Arabic on the Sindhi language page. And although this is a very very minor issue, I think it should be address to the benefit of a major language's article page to be accurate and encyclopedic. Thank you, and best wishes-- Mar de Sin Speak up! 01:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi
with regards the arbitration for the BKWSU topic page, here; [5] may I request that Sethie is co-joined as they are having equal or greater influence onto the page than many of the other users named making entire article reversions and influencing discussion?
Thanks. 195.82.106.244 11:10, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
