Just FYI: The link you provided to the talk page for the 2nd deletion nomination, the one that just closed (2012), appears to lead to the first nomination instead (2010). Rosencomet ( talk) 23:48, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
I was a contributor to these, so I don't think I should close them, but they appear to be no-brainers and a week old. Could you give them a look? Kenny Klein, LaSara FireFox, Luisah Teish and Trance Mission. Thanks! Rosencomet ( talk) 00:11, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
I see you relisted this for debate. You realise, don't you, that the merge has been done, and so "keep" and "merge" are equivalent in this instance - hence, everyone has basically agreed. Relisting would seem to be a waste of people's time. St Anselm ( talk) 00:48, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
I do not remember what I wrote in Mona Charen's article that you felt compelled to remove; however, it is entirely possible that it was indeed, as you put it, "not constructive". However, given that nothing Mona Charen espouses even remotely approaches the level of "constructive", I felt I was well within my rights to talk about her in precisely the same manner that she talks about others. In fact, given the drivel that she routinely spouts, what I wrote was probably a good deal more constructive than her standard faire. With this in mind, you might want to reconsider your decision. 70.140.185.205 ( talk) 01:53, 20 November 2012 (UTC) How do I sign this? I don't have a handle.

You recently invited User:Joebrunton/ User talk:Joebrunton to the Teahouse, where you are a host. Joe Bruton has has created a new article List of past committee members of the De Montfort University Rowing Club. This article is not notable. I see that he is creating an article in a sandbox on the rowing club, which is likely to be notable. Perhaps you can help this newbie, or find someone else to help. I review new articles, but I cannot shoulder the responsibility of non-notable articles created by new users. -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 12:33, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi there,
I understand my edit was removed due to its apparent lack of constructivity (the "peace be upon him" addition). However, I have a basis for adding "peace be upon him" after the mention of the Prophet, which happens to be explained on Wikipedia too:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peace_be_upon_him_(Islam)
It's basically part of how Muslims have been instructed to address the Prophet whenever he's mentioned (peace be upon him), so I thought it'd be helpful to teach Islam with an Islamic understanding. Perhaps, I should have hyperlinked my addition to the article above? Please reconsider.
Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.182.108.230 ( talk) 15:48, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
Can you explain your rationale for closing this? There is, as far as I can see, no clear consensus. § FreeRangeFrog 23:18, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
My comment was very constructive as surely this is part of his family history. I can provide all relevant documentation to back up the post that I made. Clearly the fact that only 'nice' things are posted about certain people is against the freedom of speech act. People have a right I know that apart from the things he has done in his cricket career he also has family that he chooses not to recognise. His daughter has a right to be acknowledged and you removing this information is not a true representative of Ashley's 'family' situation. Clearly this site is pointless if all facts cannot be listed. This was Ashley's choice and he must live by this. Again I am more than happy to email you the documentation that backs this up. Much appreciated Marie Slater — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.10.213.148 ( talk) 08:10, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Theo. How are you? I saw that you made many relists and we need someone to do that however, some of them were crossing the limit. I've been told by an admin, User:Jenks24 and I've seen on another admin, User:Scottywong's talk page that AfDs should not be relisted more than 2 times. Only in rare cases, they can be relisted thrice. Many of your relists were the 4th one. Such AfDs should be closed per No consensus if the consensus isn't clear after even a 3rd relist but a 4th relist isn't appropriate according to what I've seen and have been told. Relisting 3rd time is okay but still of less use . Thanks for helping out at AfDs however, please just cut down the relists made on a single debate (not more than 3 and 2 in rare cases). Cheers Theo!

![]() Dispute Resolution – Volunteer Survey Invite Hello Theopolisme. To follow up on the first survey in April, I am conducting a second survey to learn more about dispute resolution volunteers - their motivations for resolving disputes, the experiences they've had, and their ideas for the future. I would appreciate your thoughts. I hope that with the results of this survey, we will learn how to increase the amount of active, engaged volunteers, and further improve dispute resolution processes. The survey takes around five to ten minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click
HERE to participate. You are receiving this invitation because you have either listed yourself as a volunteer at a dispute resolution forum, or are a member of a dispute resolution committee. For more information, please see the page that describes my fellowship work which can be found here. Szhang (WMF) ( talk) 02:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC) |
Hi, I wanted to stop by and mention that your close here was strictly speaking not within policy. For an AfD to be closed as withdrawn, both the nominator and any delete !voters need to strike or otherwise retract their positions. In that AfD there is still a delete !vote outstanding (or at least if Libstar had a change of heart, I missed it). In this case, I really don't see any harm in leaving the close alone, as it would just end up with a keep close anyway, but I thought I should give you a heads up now, when its unlikely to cause any drama, so that you are aware of it while closing AfDs going forward. Hope you don't mind. Monty 845 03:43, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Theopolisme, I was wondering when you intended to make your second run for adminship? I believe I opposed the first time, saying more time was needed or something like that. Well, I think I'd be willing to support now (and maybe even nominate), although I'd have to do some looking around first. I just thought I'd leave you a note asking about what your plans might be. v/r AutomaticStrikeout ( T • C) 02:17, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I'm involved in putting together the offline releases for WP:1.0. First of all - thanks for helping out with our bot, which serves an important purpose for the community. I don't know my Perl from my Python, so I personally appreciate your contribution!
Secondly, we're starting to put together our next offline release, which will be called Version 0.9. One of the lesser known purposes of the bot - its original raison d'etre, is to help is to select articles like this, then use it to create a collection similar to Wikipedia:Version 0.8. I'd like to ask for help from you and User:Wolfgang42 in putting the collection together, with guidance (if necessary) from User:CBM and User:Kelson who both helped with the last 2-3 releases.

I added my daughter as an actress in one of the movies (Once upon a time in Phuket) and by doing that she got a personal page where I added some very basic information. This was deleted due to integrity so my question is - how do I add this info?
Eric Erfo02 ( talk) 13:34, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
I added the information again and this time I also added references to the movie on imdb and the Swedish filminstitute database as well as a reference to Ellas page on imdb. I didnt manage to change the link though as the text shows her name but the links really directs to the movie itself. I hope this is OK and before I make some more updates I want to see if this is approved. Erfo02 ( talk) 15:54, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
I hear you but the fact that I referred to her personal page on both IMDB and Swedish filminstitute and the moviepage I assumed this fulfilled demands for notability but if you say it doesnt I guess it is so. Erfo02 ( talk) 19:06, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

In fact, given the drivel that she routinely spouts, what I wrote was probably a good deal more constructive than her standard faire. With this in mind, you might want to reconsider your decision. 70.140.185.205 ( talk) 01:53, 20 November 2012 (UTC) How do I sign this? I don't have a handle.

You recently invited User:Joebrunton/ User talk:Joebrunton to the Teahouse, where you are a host. Joe Bruton has has created a new article List of past committee members of the De Montfort University Rowing Club. This article is not notable. I see that he is creating an article in a sandbox on the rowing club, which is likely to be notable. Perhaps you can help this newbie, or find someone else to help. I review new articles, but I cannot shoulder the responsibility of non-notable articles created by new users. -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 12:33, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi there,
I understand my edit was removed due to its apparent lack of constructivity (the "peace be upon him" addition). However, I have a basis for adding "peace be upon him" after the mention of the Prophet, which happens to be explained on Wikipedia too:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peace_be_upon_him_(Islam)
It's basically part of how Muslims have been instructed to address the Prophet whenever he's mentioned (peace be upon him), so I thought it'd be helpful to teach Islam with an Islamic understanding. Perhaps, I should have hyperlinked my addition to the article above? Please reconsider.

My comment was very constructive as surely this is part of his family history. I can provide all relevant documentation to back up the post that I made. Clearly the fact that only 'nice' things are posted about certain people is against the freedom of speech act. People have a right I know that apart from the things he has done in his cricket career he also has family that he chooses not to recognise. His daughter has a right to be acknowledged and you removing this information is not a true representative of Ashley's 'family' situation. Clearly this site is pointless if all facts cannot be listed. This was Ashley's choice and he must live by this. Again I am more than happy to email you the documentation that backs this up.

Hi Theo. How are you? I saw that you made many relists and we need someone to do that however, some of them were crossing the limit. I've been told by an admin, User:Jenks24 and I've seen on another admin, User:Scottywong's talk page that AfDs should not be relisted more than 2 times. Only in rare cases, they can be relisted thrice. Many of your relists were the 4th one. Such AfDs should be closed per No consensus if the consensus isn't clear after even a 3rd relist but a 4th relist isn't appropriate according to what I've seen and have been told. Relisting 3rd time is okay but still of less use . Thanks for helping out at AfDs however, please just cut down the relists made on a single debate (not more than 3 and 2 in rare cases). Cheers Theo!

![]() Dispute Resolution – Volunteer Survey Invite Hello Theopolisme. To follow up on the first survey in April, I am conducting a second survey to learn more about dispute resolution volunteers - their motivations for resolving disputes, the experiences they've had, and their ideas for the future. I would appreciate your thoughts. I hope that with the results of this survey, we will learn how to increase the amount of active, engaged volunteers, and further improve dispute resolution processes. The survey takes around five to ten minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click
HERE to participate. You are receiving this invitation because you have either listed yourself as a volunteer at a dispute resolution forum, or are a member of a dispute resolution committee. For more information, please see the page that describes my fellowship work which can be found here. Szhang (WMF) ( talk) 02:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC) |
Hi, I wanted to stop by and mention that your close here was strictly speaking not within policy. For an AfD to be closed as withdrawn, both the nominator and any delete !voters need to strike or otherwise retract their positions. In that AfD there is still a delete !vote outstanding (or at least if Libstar had a change of heart, I missed it). In this case, I really don't see any harm in leaving the close alone, as it would just end up with a keep close anyway, but I thought I should give you a heads up now, when its unlikely to cause any drama, so that you are aware of it while closing AfDs going forward. Hope you don't mind. Monty 845 03:43, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

I added my daughter as an actress in one of the movies (Once upon a time in Phuket) and by doing that she got a personal page where I added some very basic information. This was deleted due to integrity so my question is - how do I add this info?
Eric Erfo02 ( talk) 13:34, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
I added the information again and this time I also added references to the movie on imdb and the Swedish filminstitute database as well as a reference to Ellas page on imdb. I didnt manage to change the link though as the text shows her name but the links really directs to the movie itself. I hope this is OK and before I make some more updates I want to see if this is approved. Erfo02 ( talk) 15:54, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
I hear you but the fact that I referred to her personal page on both IMDB and Swedish filminstitute and the moviepage I assumed this fulfilled demands for notability but if you say it doesnt I guess it is so. Erfo02 ( talk) 19:06, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
