About me:
I have been an admin since March 2007, and have had a fair taste of conflict, vandalism fighting, username work, notice board, revert wars, BLP, dispute resolution and so on, as well as the grunt work of gnoming, copy editing, tagging, speedy deletion, image copyright work and so on. I also have over 8,000 article edits (over 15,000 total edits) and 4 (soon to be [hopefully] 5 or 6) Featured Articles to my name, and I am the lead coordinator of The Law Enforcement WikiProject as well as a regular writer for The Military History Wikiproject where 3 of my FAs have a home (the fourth being a collective work for the cricket wikiproject.

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck. ~ Riana ⁂ 04:58, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Hello. You expressed interest in writing for the Wikipedia Sign?post (sorry for the delay in responding). I'm sending this message to everyone who commented, so if you have any questions I haven't answered, please feel free to ask me, and I'll try to respond to specific questions.
Essentially, what I'm looking for is writers who can step in and write on subjects that are newsworthy from week-to-week. The content of the stories obviously varies each week depending on what's happening; this is discussed below.
There are three major parts to writing an article:
As said above, topics will vary from week-to-week. For this week, these particular issues may be newsworthy:
For more ideas, and for ideas in the future, check the tip-line -- there are usually some good ideas there.
Once you've decided on a topic, make sure to sign up for it in the newsroom, under "Special stories", so that users aren't duplicating each others' work (though multiple writers are certainly free to work together on a story).
Now, you've decided on a topic and signed up for it. To write it, create a subpage in your userspace. For my story this week on the bureaucratship candidacies, for example, I'll create it at User:Ral315/Bureaucratship candidacies. The name isn't a big deal, of course -- I'll change it if necessary.
Formatting the story isn't important; for your first article, you should mainly focus on writing a good story, and I'll take care of the formatting when we publish. Try to write it in a newspaper-like tone, avoiding personal comments and opinions in favor of straight-forward facts. The size of an article varies based on what the story is, but a good minimum goal for most stories is two-to-three good paragraphs. Longer articles are even better, so long as they're well-written.
Now, all you have to do is post a link to the article in the newsroom, where you signed up for it earlier. That's it! You're done!
Again, if you have any questions at all, please contact me, and I'll try to respond as soon as possible.
Thanks for your interest in writing for the Signpost. Ral315 ( talk) 03:08, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I notice that you tagged the page Tap Tap Revenge 2 for speedy deletion with the reason "{{ db-a7}}". While that's a valid reason for speedy deletion in general, this page does not qualify for speedy deletion under that criterion because software is explicitly not allowed under A7. If you still want the page to be deleted, please consider tagging it with a speedy deletion template which does apply, redirecting it to another page, or using the WP:AFD process. Thanks!

I noticed that you deleted shaahin mohajeri:
Aren't these some important references :
And as

"Has anyone checked out the Persian language references and links in the article? Or looked for any other Persian sources? If not then we can't claim that this lacks sources.(14:06, 8 March 2009)" (UTC)
Please find someone who knows farsi to check out the Persian language references and links and any other Persian sources.
And some other interesting things:
-Gets <300 Google hits . Is google hits one of the most parameters to delete?may be yes and may be no (-;
-This article is top heavy on self-promotion, see

Hello EvanSeeds,
You added a comment in my deletion page. This article we were discussing was National Ballot Access (now deteled). In our discussion, you mentioned that is had 1,390 Google hits and 0 Google news hits. My question is how would one go about checking google hits? Is it a free service or do you have to pay for it?
Thanks, John Wynne Jr. johnwynnejr@yahoo.com -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 22:18, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
I think that you missed my question. Although I appreciate your response. I understand what "google hits" are. I don't konw how people look them up. Can you please give me some insight?
Thanks -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 04:50, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks! I didn't know that.
1 more question though:
It says in the upper right corner: Results 1 - 10 of about 372,000 for john doe. (0.32 seconds)
I searched this today. Does this mean john doe got 372,000 google hits for the month of March? Or so far this month? Or how does that work? And what does the "(0.32 seconds)" mean?
Thanks for teaching me -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 16:52, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
I would like to make the necessary revisions to the Illini Drumline wikipedia article in order to meet your standards for reinstating the page.
I am not a wikipedia expert, and I can't find the deleted page. Can you direct me to the deleted content?
I believe the page can be revised to meet the notability guidelines.
Thanks,
Dale Hallerberg
Hallerbergd ( talk) 19:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for explaining that.
I thought "hits" meant people # of people searching for that word or word combination. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnwynnejr ( talk • contribs) 04:43, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Mr. Seeds,
I find your position very confusing. It appears you are a wikipedia expert. You deleted the content at Illini Drumline and welcomed me to edit the article. But I cannot edit the article because it's deleted. Catch 22. Yet now you cannot access the content and send me off elsewhere? Are you not an administrator of some sort?
I think it's presumptious to delete an article in an area where you have limited experience without first contacting the main author(s). A note on the discussion page is hardly enough. I don't login to wikipedia but once every 6 months or so, if that.
So could you please send me the article content so I can edit it to meet your standards? And an explanation of your personal standards for notability would be helpful. I'd prefer to handle this by email -- I don't quite follow the wiki discussion and talk board mechanics.
Thanks,
Dale —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallerbergd ( talk • contribs)
It appears that the administrator who deleted Illini Drumline on your recommendation was "Aitias". I wrote them a note but I have not gotten any response. Do you have a recommendation for another administrator who might be able to help find the content which was deleted?
I would like to follow your suggestion to edit the article, so that it will meet your standards for notability. Of course, it is difficult to edit it since you deleted it. In the future, you should suggest that an article be edited before deleting it. As you can see, it would save a lot of wasted effort. Hallerbergd ( talk) 18:48, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Wikipedia guidelines suggest that we all write with patience and professionalism. However, I'm having a tough time with that since you are providing exactly zero help solving a problem that you created. You proposed deleting the content, then recommended I edit it, which is impossible, then sent me searching for an administrator, who doesn't respond, then you say Go find another administrator who cares.
How about you take ownership of your actions and help find the content which you deleted so I can do the editing which you suggested in order to meet your standards for notability?
I guess I would also feel better about this if you were an expert in marching percussion or college drumlines. Are you? Hallerbergd ( talk) 01:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
hiya- i'd be keen to join the percussion project, but i'm not sure how!!

What is 1390 google hits and how does a person go about checking that?
Thanks, User:Johnwynnejr —Preceding undated comment added 15:26, 6 March 2009 (UTC).
Hi freind
I noticed that you deleted shaahin mohajeri:
Aren't these some important references :
And as
Phil Bridger (
talk) Commented :
"Has anyone checked out the Persian language references and links in the article? Or looked for any other Persian sources? If not then we can't claim that this lacks sources.(14:06, 8 March 2009)" (UTC)
Please find someone who knows farsi to check out the Persian language references and links and any other Persian sources.
And some other interesting things:
-Gets <300 Google hits . Is google hits one of the most parameters to delete?may be yes and may be no (-;
-This article is top heavy on self-promotion, see
[1].If this is a problem so i can delete the picture (-;
Anyway , thanks your efforts for great wikipedia

Hello EvanSeeds,
You added a comment in my deletion page. This article we were discussing was National Ballot Access (now deteled). In our discussion, you mentioned that is had 1,390 Google hits and 0 Google news hits. My question is how would one go about checking google hits? Is it a free service or do you have to pay for it?
Thanks, John Wynne Jr. johnwynnejr@yahoo.com -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 22:18, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
I think that you missed my question. Although I appreciate your response. I understand what "google hits" are. I don't konw how people look them up. Can you please give me some insight?
Thanks -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 04:50, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks! I didn't know that.
1 more question though:
It says in the upper right corner: Results 1 - 10 of about 372,000 for john doe. (0.32 seconds)
I searched this today. Does this mean john doe got 372,000 google hits for the month of March? Or so far this month? Or how does that work? And what does the "(0.32 seconds)" mean?
Thanks for teaching me -- Johnwynnejr ( talk) 16:52, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
I would like to make the necessary revisions to the Illini Drumline wikipedia article in order to meet your standards for reinstating the page.
I am not a wikipedia expert, and I can't find the deleted page. Can you direct me to the deleted content?
I believe the page can be revised to meet the notability guidelines.
Thanks,
Dale Hallerberg

Thanks for explaining that.
I thought "hits" meant people # of people searching for that word or word combination. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnwynnejr ( talk • contribs) 04:43, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Mr. Seeds,
I find your position very confusing. It appears you are a wikipedia expert. You deleted the content at Illini Drumline and welcomed me to edit the article. But I cannot edit the article because it's deleted. Catch 22. Yet now you cannot access the content and send me off elsewhere? Are you not an administrator of some sort?
I think it's presumptious to delete an article in an area where you have limited experience without first contacting the main author(s). A note on the discussion page is hardly enough. I don't login to wikipedia but once every 6 months or so, if that.
So could you please send me the article content so I can edit it to meet your standards? And an explanation of your personal standards for notability would be helpful. I'd prefer to handle this by email -- I don't quite follow the wiki discussion and talk board mechanics.
Thanks,
Dale —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallerbergd ( talk • contribs)
It appears that the administrator who deleted Illini Drumline on your recommendation was "Aitias". I wrote them a note but I have not gotten any response. Do you have a recommendation for another administrator who might be able to help find the content which was deleted?
I would like to follow your suggestion to edit the article, so that it will meet your standards for notability. Of course, it is difficult to edit it since you deleted it. In the future, you should suggest that an article be edited before deleting it. As you can see, it would save a lot of wasted effort. Hallerbergd ( talk) 18:48, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Wikipedia guidelines suggest that we all write with patience and professionalism. However, I'm having a tough time with that since you are providing exactly zero help solving a problem that you created. You proposed deleting the content, then recommended I edit it, which is impossible, then sent me searching for an administrator, who doesn't respond, then you say Go find another administrator who cares.
How about you take ownership of your actions and help find the content which you deleted so I can do the editing which you suggested in order to meet your standards for notability?
I guess I would also feel better about this if you were an expert in marching percussion or college drumlines. Are you? Hallerbergd ( talk) 01:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
hiya- i'd be keen to join the percussion project, but i'm not sure how!!
i'm a percussionist in uk specialising in west african music- i teach groups and individuals, and also have an interest in all world percussion...
cheers, boyd
