Hi Yomangani, how are you? I have a big request, unfortunately, ehehehe. Could you, umm, copyedit Indonesia? Well, you can choose any section you like, don't do all sections hahahaha (if you want, please do so!). Your help will be much much much MUCH appreciated.

Hi Yomangani, About the automatically-generated list of sharks you are going to make, will Taxonomy of the Carcharhiniformes be removed when it is up & running? Cheers GrahamBould 11:33, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Don't know who to mention this to, but in the Category 'Sharks' the sub-categories are only in one column requiring the user to page forward to the Next 200. But in sub-categories of sub-categories there are more than 1 column. Small point, I know, but it might be nice to get it improved. Cheers GrahamBould 12:29, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. I know there is a statement about not being an admin further down the thread, but that was also made 17 hours after his reply to my original message, and in response to someone else who also assumed he was an admin. And I assumed that you were an admin because I thought he was an admin, and you were challenging him on that level. I feel my assumptions were reasonable. Bwithh 00:05, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for taking care of that. Was it something I did? I can't figure it out - Nv8200p talk 01:51, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
I can answer at least one of your requests; there are now log links in the section title. (I'm no longer doing it entirely by hand; I've got a script I can run locally to produce the list, and a bit of ParserFunctions on the page to get the links right). The whole thing is started manually by me, so I have to be online to update the list (which relies on having a good enough Internet connection to run the bot; the quality of the connection is quite variable at the moment). Your only hope of a daily update would probably be to clone the bot; if you don't mind a few more false positives, I could email the shortlisting script that harvests a shortlist from query.php, analyses it, and produces the results to you if you'd like (it's somewhat kludgy, requires some copying and pasting by hand due to JavaScript security restrictions, and I've got no idea how portable it is). (The script is normally run immediately after the bot to prevent closed AfDs being caught up there; it will work without the bot's aid as well, but will catch closed but still-catted AfDs.) I don't mind the flood of feature requests, by the way; it helps to give me something to do. -- ais523 14:35, 6 October 2006 ( U T C)
I see you've been working on it: is it salvageable? It's Greek to me, and I don't know where to start. Not sure if it needs to go to FARC ? Sandy 03:35, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
No, at the risk of sounding like a jerk. This is a process that can easilly be done by a bot, and I suggested that happen, apparently it hasn't yet. As useful as these categories may be, requiring closers to remove them, when closers (as far as I know) never asked for them to be there in the first place, makes a tedius process more tedius. So basically I oppose out of principle, sorry, my fear is that if we just keep adding processes onto closing AfDs, the backlog will get even worse. This seems like a process AWB could do easilly, just run once a day, if the AfD is closed, remove the template, otherwise skip. -- W.marsh 14:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I will redo the article and resubmit it.
How if you are doing a company can you copy a page and not be consided as copyright, I can see the problem this causes and don't want to keep causing work for all so is there anyway if I do another article for a company and I use one of their pages to keep it from being considered copyright infrigment?-- Cleanupman 18:31, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, the addition of ...Netherlands and ...Spain to the original UK squats AfD was not, imo, carried out in accordance with AfD procedure and I was unable to delete them as part of the same process. The titles of any and all articles in an AfD listing should be in bold at the top of the debate, and in the case of non-near-as-dammit identical articles they should really be listed simultaneously to ensure they all receive the same consideration. Please relist them again if you wish. Thanks, Deizio talk 15:12, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Are you kiding - so when a band posts thier site here - what is that considered?
By the way, we are not selling anything at Kevlarlounge - nor the Short Bus Racers - so what are we advertising?
Seriously - what does it take to be and admin here? I will keep your comments for further reference.
Thanks
This is in reference to you stating the site offers no significance importance - Should I list specifics that can help? The site is of major importance - Should I attach the FAQ's of driving on the listing to help?
Regarding why you are deleting my page:
So since I'm not quite understanding why you are deciding to recommend and have pages deleted
What would be the criteria for getting these pages to stay? Specifically for Kevlarlounge and Short Bus Racers
We have world records, there is video and stats to confirm this. We are know in the online racing world. We are not selling anything on our site, and promote tips and tricks, and write many FAQ's for PGR and Forza Series.
I am not understanding how any half rated band can post a page here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiny_Toy_Guns
And advertise their album list and buy page - but yet we are a community for giving advice and you find that enough to have the page removed
Would it help if we make an record a racing sounds album first? I can do that and put it online in 30 minutes if so
By the way - our videos on our site are not for sale, only for learning techniques on driving for free

Hmmm ... per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers), I did fine on the numbers until I hit the Epidemiology section. MOS says "Within a context or a list, style should be consistent", and I should only spell out numbers that are less than ten, or can be said in two or fewer words. But, I think (?), it would be awkward to spell out things like:
when prevalence is rarely expressed that way. Don't know what to do - what do you think? Sandy ( Talk) 01:47, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, your name crossed my mind, because you're such a helpful person in improving any article. I've contributed much improvement for this article: Mount Tambora. The article is currently in GA nomination and have been peer-reviewed. There's not much suggestion in PR, so I guess it's been done with PR. I am thinking of pull it from GAC and then putting this article in FAC. You have a lot of experiences in FAR, so I want to know your opinion about this. Is the article already qualified for FAC? (I've asked this question in PR, but nobody has answered it). Let me know what you think. Cheers. — Indon ( reply) — 10:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

I do not intend to criticize the work of individual editors; I have not been editing John Dee, and do not follow its edit history.

The titles of any and all articles in an AfD listing should be in bold at the top of the debate, and in the case of non-near-as-dammit identical articles they should really be listed simultaneously to ensure they all receive the same consideration. Please relist them again if you wish. Thanks, Deizio talk 15:12, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for closing the New Lettrist International AfD. Would you add the template to the talk page, please? BlueValour 19:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Are you kiding - so when a band posts thier site here - what is that considered?
By the way, we are not selling anything at Kevlarlounge - nor the Short Bus Racers - so what are we advertising?
Seriously - what does it take to be and admin here? I will keep your comments for further reference.
Thanks
This is in reference to you stating the site offers no significance importance - Should I list specifics that can help? The site is of major importance - Should I attach the FAQ's of driving on the listing to help?
Regarding why you are deleting my page:
So since I'm not quite understanding why you are deciding to recommend and have pages deleted
What would be the criteria for getting these pages to stay? Specifically for Kevlarlounge and Short Bus Racers
We have world records, there is video and stats to confirm this. We are know in the online racing world. We are not selling anything on our site, and promote tips and tricks, and write many FAQ's for PGR and Forza Series.
I am not understanding how any half rated band can post a page here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiny_Toy_Guns
And advertise their album list and buy page - but yet we are a community for giving advice and you find that enough to have the page removed
Would it help if we make an record a racing sounds album first? I can do that and put it online in 30 minutes if so
By the way - our videos on our site are not for sale, only for learning techniques on driving for free
Help with fixing the link of second AFD on the top of talk page please. It is pointing to the first AFD and not to the second one. ابراهيم 13:07, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Yomangani! Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which succeeded with a final tally of 75/0/1! I hope I can live up to the standards of adminship, and I will try my best to make Wikipedia a better place. Feel free to send me a message if you need any assistance. :) |

The AfD you closed a mere TWO hours ago is being re-open. Is it within your power to shut it down as a bad faith nom? PT ( s-s-s-s) 00:18, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi - how can this AfD not set a precedent? I may not be of the same opinion as Coolkeg, but I'd agree with him that the whole area needs cleaning up. Vizjim 13:46, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
I intend to appeal Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sixth Party System, on the grounds that the delete arguments were not answered. Except for Kchase, whom I am going to send a copy, they were ignored. Would you reconsider, to see if you have fully weighed the strength of the arguments? AfD is not a vote. Septentrionalis 15:11, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Dear Yomangani
Since the result of the Butterley Tunnel AfD discussion is keep can the related merge discussion on the Cromford Canal page be removed also?
Yours Faithfully Martin Cordon Martin Cordon 18:01, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi Yomangani, Not much discussion there about merging the articles Iman Wilkens into Where Troy Once Stood, in fact none, so I took the liberty of merging them. Best Wishes, Antiphus 09:33, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
You will find my oppinions at Oppose; adminship of KhoiKhoi and User_talk:Gwernol pages. Regards Mustafa Akalp TC 13:20, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Okay, it's your talk page; sorry for any inconvenience. Cheers, TenOfAllTrades( talk) 14:53, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Very well done. I am always impressed by closes that seem to be based on something other than counting votes, and yet also seem to reflect community consensus. AnonEMouse (squeak) 12:52, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

For offering your opinion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lori Klausutis (third nomination). "The quality of mercy is not strain'd . . . It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's, When mercy seasons justice." ~ Wm. Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, Act IV Scene 1. Morton devonshire 22:42, 20 October 2006 (UTC) |
This was a db-move. Please fulfil the CSD. The nomination was placed at the wrong article altogether, you need to delete it and move the "ongoing at the wrong location" discussion into its place. - Hahnch e n 01:56, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

This shouldnt have been deleted. The reason for it being deleted was because the sources werent reliable. Which is stupid because hmmmm lets see...Halopedia is about a fictional universe...Halo right? And when the company that invents the damn universe says its good, then its sure as hell good!-- Johnston49er 04:37, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
Good to see someone else working on Platypus, shouldn't be too ahrd to get back to FA. Headings are trivcky sometimes; the more standardized they are the clunkier they can often get for any one particular biology article - I have use Distribution on quite a few animals and plants but I am not too fussed about it either way. cheers. Cas Liber 09:36, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
PS: Were you about to nominate it? I have tried to rewrite a few long and unwieldy sentences. Haven't really looked through the refs much. Mammals are not my strong point....
You're good - don't tell Tony he missed those :-) Thanks, Sandy ( Talk) 00:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm ... per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers), I did fine on the numbers until I hit the Epidemiology section. MOS says "Within a context or a list, style should be consistent", and I should only spell out numbers that are less than ten, or can be said in two or fewer words. But, I think (?), it would be awkward to spell out things like:
when prevalence is rarely expressed that way. Don't know what to do - what do you think? Sandy ( Talk) 01:47, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
I'm going to review Platypus tomorrow: the fire in California has me so nervous I can't focus - didn't want you to think I was ignoring it. Sandy ( Talk) 19:10, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
A new day ! Colin raises a question on how I've handled the numbers; wondering what you think here. Thanks ! Sandy ( Talk) 12:24, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi, your name crossed my mind, because you're such a helpful person in improving any article. I've contributed much improvement for this article: Mount Tambora. The article is currently in GA nomination and have been peer-reviewed. There's not much suggestion in PR, so I guess it's been done with PR. I am thinking of pull it from GAC and then putting this article in FAC. You have a lot of experiences in FAR, so I want to know your opinion about this. Is the article already qualified for FAC? (I've asked this question in PR, but nobody has answered it). Let me know what you think. Cheers. — Indon ( reply) — 10:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar | |
For your excellent work in FARC and the articles you have saved, I, Yannismarou, award you the Original Barnstar.-- Yannismarou 15:56, 27 October 2006 (UTC) |
A fascinating read, another great save, I learned some interesting facts reading this article. What a strange and interesting animal!
Sandy ( Talk) 14:21, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
I do not intend to criticize the work of individual editors; I have not been editing John Dee, and do not follow its edit history. It is the whole in-line citation craze, where they are useful or not, that should be deprecated. Footnotes should be used where they are useful, and not insisted on elsewhere. Septentrionalis 15:31, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Yomangani, another great save: I'm not sure about this sentence?
Sandy ( Talk) 21:24, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
The overlaps between User:ALoan/redlinks and User:Yomangani/redlinks are quite amusing! I never could get up much enthusiasm for Trade Union and Labour Relations Act 1974, though. Good luck!-- ALoan (Talk) 13:06, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
How cool is that, to see your work featured on a Wikipedia portal? I will be sharing more work soon (not enough hours in the day), but could you perhaps give me the lowdown on wiki commons, how it's used, how it works, and why it's better than just uploading a pic here & there? (I know I can research this, but I'd like your take.) Thanx, cheers - pterantula
hi Yomangani/Archive 3. Starting today, the Indonesia Collaboration is Java. Come along and help make this a page worthy of the world’s most magnificent island. There’s a suggested to-do list on the the Talk page to which you can add, or just pick a task. All sorts of tasks are required, Images, Citations, Research, Copy Edit, you name it – this important article needs your help!! regards -- Merbabu 08:56, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Please see my message; here, and here. Regards Mustafa Akalp TC 09:35, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
