January 2008 Information
Another editor has added the "{{ prod}}" template to the article Heterosocial, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{ prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Heterosocial
An editor has nominated Heterosocial, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also " What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heterosocial and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 06:44, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
March 2008 Information
A
proposed deletion template has been added to the article
Bioelectrography, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the
proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the
speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to
Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if
consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{
db-author}} to the top of
Bioelectrography.

- Well, one thing that might save the article from meriting a PROD deletion would be if you could point out a place (other than Korotkov's work) that discusses the field. Even a reputable source slamming the field of Bioelectrography specifically (i.e., not as one example among many pseudo-scientific disciplines) would satisfy WP:FRINGE and make the topic notable and verifiable. If you think you can do this, you can simply remove the PROD tag. I would then relist the article under Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion, but if you think that this article should not be deleted then you should by all means contest the PROD and compel an AfD discussion.
- If you have an interest in this article, you might also be interested to know that there is currently an AfD underway for Konstantin Korotkov at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Konstantin Korotkov. RJC Talk Contribs 19:51, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

It is a complete duplicate of
Birth Control Glasses. I've already copied those few unique ideas over to the latter article, and the former has no further redeeming value.
An alternative exists: we could turn
GI glasses into a redirect to
Birth Control Glasses.

- I have to say that I have no real problem going either way. If you feel that GI glasses should be kept and BCG made the redirect, then I will not object. As far as I am concerned, they are both slang terms, and while I think BCG has a more interesting name due to the humor of it, it does seem a less... official, for lack of a better term. So, by all means, do as you like and I will not attempt to stop or revert you; but if you haven't moved either way by the time May rolls around, I will act upon my own preference (assuming lack of interest in all other parties). bahamut0013 ♠ ♣ 00:07, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
April 2008 Information
Speedy deletion of Hero for a Day
A tag has been placed on Hero for a Day requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}} to the top of
the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

- I don't remember exactly, but I think someone had hijacked Hero for a Day for some non notable band. That's what I nominated for deletion; I guess some admin restored it to a redirect. Sorry about the confusion. You can safely disregard the message. TheMile ( talk) 00:27, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

The part of the guideline that the link to lolitron violated was in the section Links to avoid point 11. That fact is, lolitron is a blog, and under WP:EL blogs should not be linked to in an external links section unless the person is a well known expert in the industry. Blogs also can not be used as sources as they are generally not considered reliable sources. -- Farix ( Talk) 23:11, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Tyciol. You are listed as a member of WikiProject Gymnastics, but the project is listed as inactive, so I am contacting you personally on your talk page.
I have been bold and created an infobox for gymnastics biographical articles. I would appreciate any and all feedback on it, including changes and corrections. I took the basic fields from the FIG profiles and the one on the Nastia Liukin article, as well as pulling ones from other athlete infoboxes. I tried to be as thorough as possible, but I'm sure that I've left some things out. :) I have put together some samples of how the infobox currently looks at User:Kolindigo/Gymnastics Infobox Test.
I would like to start implementing the infobox on gymnastics biographies in about a week to give it time to settle in and get the kinks knocked out before the Olympics. Please come by, take a look, and make any changes you think would help. Kolindigo ( talk) 05:47, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Nearly everything I said about the Dick Cruickshank version, I got from the entry on the Internet Movie Database. I'm very surprised this isn't on archive.org as it is public domain. I've seen the direction attributed to Norman Lee and to W. Bowden, and to Cruickshank himself. Taori seems to think the 1948 version was first although he says there were "two or three" film versions. I should contact him about hunting up the 1923 version.

Please stop refactoring talk pages, as you did here and here. It is not appropriate to do such "clean up", is totally unnecessary, and is considered rude. They are talk pages, not articles, so please leave headers alone, and spacing.

- re: activism I wasn't sure if you wanted me to answer here or on my page, so I'll post here just in case. Objectivity is an ideal, some might say to be truly objective is impossible, but we try. I suppose one could say that in the scientific community, the label of "activism" is looked down upon, because a scientist does not seek to change things, only discover. If there was a group or movement such that you speak of, what would it even be composed of? I mean specific examples. I generally feel psychiatric and psychological research is pretty objective on the matter most of the time. Its the media that tends to go a little wacky with it. That's why I like direct journal quotes for refs. About my talk page: I started my account a long long time ago, but I didn't use it much. So, I never had much communication with anybody, and no real talk page dialogue. I eventually got inspired to start a few articles on obscure subjects. I like to archive conversations when they have been resolved or largely idle for some time, just because it's clutter.

- I think what you refer to is public education, for instance here: [3]. That's pretty common, though they are usually put out by major organizations like HHS, American Heart Association, etc., not individual scientists. One other thing unrelated: Watch it with moving talk pages around and changing formatting. It makes it hard to find parts of conversations if a user was previously was involved. Even if their sectioning was technically incorrect, it's where users look when checking in. I've lost my place a few times. Legitimus ( talk) 22:16, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Tyciol! As part of the memberlist 'cleanup' process on WikiProject Israel, I am sending you this message to ask whether you still wish to be active on the project (not having edited Israel-related articles in a reasonably long time). The project appreciates your past contributions and would like to see you editing its articles again :) Also, I personally urge you to watch the project and talk page in order to be involved in project discussions. On the other hand, if you no longer have an interest in this project, please let me know. Cheers, Ynhockey ( Talk) 18:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Jean-Claude does the death touch when he first arrives at the Kumite tournament. Before he can enter the tournament the officials make him prove that he trained under the shidoshi he claimed. So they set up a stack of bricks and tell him to demonstrate the "Death Touch" or Dem Mak. Jean-Claude then does the Death Touch on the bricks and they all explode. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.64.78.251 ( talk) 22:35, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for trying to improve our handling of this person, but his rdlk on the Dab
Humberht was entirely appropriate, a text-only entry on a Dab is never permitted, and
your conversion of the rdlk to text was disruptive in concealing the need for an article to satisfy that lk. Each of the Rdrs you created pointing to that Dab served to increase the effort editors needed to make, to realize an article was waiting to be written; worse, a reasonable editor would infer, from your redirecting a geographic topic's title to a person, that you had made a well-informed judgment that there's nothing worth knowing about the
Tomsaete that would be missing from a good biography of Humberht: that he was the heart and soul to them as
Alexander the Great was to the
Macedonian Empire, or
Ross Perot was to the
Reform Party. Your good intentions would probably profit from picking out some Dabs that interest you from
Category:Disambiguation pages in need of cleanup, and watchlisting them to see what your colleagues do to deal with those Dabs' respective problems. Thanks,

Another editor has added the "{{ prod}}" template to the article Heterosocial, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{ prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

An editor has nominated Heterosocial, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also " What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heterosocial and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 06:44, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Bioelectrography, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's

its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the
proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the
speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to
Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if
consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{

- Well, one thing that might save the article from meriting a PROD deletion would be if you could point out a place (other than Korotkov's work) that discusses the field. Even a reputable source slamming the field of Bioelectrography specifically (i.e., not as one example among many pseudo-scientific disciplines) would satisfy WP:FRINGE and make the topic notable and verifiable. If you think you can do this, you can simply remove the PROD tag. I would then relist the article under Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion, but if you think that this article should not be deleted then you should by all means contest the PROD and compel an AfD discussion.
- If you have an interest in this article, you might also be interested to know that there is currently an AfD underway for Konstantin Korotkov at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Konstantin Korotkov. RJC Talk Contribs 19:51, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

It is a complete duplicate of
Birth Control Glasses. I've already copied those few unique ideas over to the latter article, and the former has no further redeeming value.
An alternative exists: we could turn
GI glasses into a redirect to

- I have to say that I have no real problem going either way. If you feel that GI glasses should be kept and BCG made the redirect, then I will not object. As far as I am concerned, they are both slang terms, and while I think BCG has a more interesting name due to the humor of it, it does seem a less... official, for lack of a better term. So, by all means, do as you like and I will not attempt to stop or revert you; but if you haven't moved either way by the time May rolls around, I will act upon my own preference (assuming lack of interest in all other parties). bahamut0013 ♠ ♣ 00:07, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
April 2008 Information
Speedy deletion of Hero for a Day
A tag has been placed on Hero for a Day requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}} to the top of
the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

Hello, Tyciol. You are listed as a member of WikiProject Gymnastics, but the project is listed as inactive, so I am contacting you personally on your talk page.
I have been bold and created an infobox for gymnastics biographical articles. I would appreciate any and all feedback on it, including changes and corrections. I took the basic fields from the FIG profiles and the one on the Nastia Liukin article, as well as pulling ones from other athlete infoboxes. I tried to be as thorough as possible, but I'm sure that I've left some things out. :) I have put together some samples of how the infobox currently looks at User:Kolindigo/Gymnastics Infobox Test.
I would like to start implementing the infobox on gymnastics biographies in about a week to give it time to settle in and get the kinks knocked out before the Olympics. Please come by, take a look, and make any changes you think would help. Kolindigo ( talk) 05:47, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from

Baunt, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at

Nearly everything I said about the Dick Cruickshank version, I got from the entry on the Internet Movie Database. I'm very surprised this isn't on archive.org as it is public domain. I've seen the direction attributed to Norman Lee and to W. Bowden, and to Cruickshank himself.

I suppose one could say that in the scientific community, the label of "activism" is looked down upon, because a scientist does not seek to change things, only discover. If there was a group or movement such that you speak of, what would it even be composed of? I mean specific examples. I generally feel psychiatric and psychological research is pretty objective on the matter most of the time. Its the media that tends to go a little wacky with it. That's why I like direct journal quotes for refs. About my talk page: I started my account a long long time ago, but I didn't use it much. So, I never had much communication with anybody, and no real talk page dialogue. I eventually got inspired to start a few articles on obscure subjects. I like to archive conversations when they have been resolved or largely idle for some time, just because it's clutter.

- I think what you refer to is public education, for instance here: [3]. That's pretty common, though they are usually put out by major organizations like HHS, American Heart Association, etc., not individual scientists. One other thing unrelated: Watch it with moving talk pages around and changing formatting. It makes it hard to find parts of conversations if a user was previously was involved. Even if their sectioning was technically incorrect, it's where users look when checking in. I've lost my place a few times. Legitimus ( talk) 22:16, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

I would have added to your user page, but I thought that you would want to place it appropriately. Atom ( talk) 03:59, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
In September of 2007, you had a notice at the top of your talk page stating that comments from anonymous editors would be deleted unread. We discussed this, and you ended up realizing that such a policy was a bad idea. But on June 2, 2008, you put the notice back. Was there a reason? -- Damian Yerrick ( talk | stalk) 20:59, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
- I did not manually add that, I found an updated version of the template coding (as you can see, the edit also changed the colour) and probably copied the whole thing indiscriminately forgetting that I had manually removed part of it. Even so, to be honest, I am sort of feeling differently, because I like it when people have logins. Tyciol ( talk) 05:03, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Personally, I like your theory. I myself hadn't noticed it until I found it on Wikipedia. As you say, it seems way too much of a coincidence to name a girl with plant-manipulation powers with a plant cell. Great work, and thanks for replying on the discussion page :) A ( Reply!, Contribs) 18:50, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
- Regardless, it's still a good point :) I've seen the discussion page for Klara Prast, and I've seen you brought up an interesting point: to create a seperate article consisting of notable characters on Runaways. What are your thoughts on this? I'd be perfectly willing to start the page. A ( Reply!, Contribs) 00:44, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Typo redirect Irenee
Hello, this is a message from
an automated bot. A tag has been placed on
Irenee, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be
speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because
Irenee is a redirect page resulting from an implausible typo (
CSD R3).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting
Irenee, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at
WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the
bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click

Hi Tyciol! As part of the memberlist 'cleanup' process on WikiProject Israel, I am sending you this message to ask whether you still wish to be active on the project (not having edited Israel-related articles in a reasonably long time). The project appreciates your past contributions and would like to see you editing its articles again :) Also, I personally urge you to watch the project and talk page in order to be involved in project discussions.

Jean-Claude does the death touch when he first arrives at the Kumite tournament. Before he can enter the tournament the officials make him prove that he trained under the shidoshi he claimed. So they set up a stack of bricks and tell him to demonstrate the "Death Touch" or Dem Mak. Jean-Claude then does the Death Touch on the bricks and they all explode. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.64.78.251 ( talk) 22:35, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{ WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
- Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, writing contests, article logistics, and other tasks.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
- If you're looking for something to work on, there are many articles that need attention, as well as a number of review alerts and copy-editing alerts.
- The project has a stress hotline available for your use.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! -- ROGER DAVIES talk 05:39, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for trying to improve our handling of this person, but his rdlk on the Dab
Humberht was entirely appropriate, a text-only entry on a Dab is never permitted, and
your conversion of the rdlk to text was disruptive in concealing the need for an article to satisfy that lk. Each of the Rdrs you created pointing to that Dab served to increase the effort editors needed to make, to realize an article was waiting to be written; worse, a reasonable editor would infer, from your redirecting a geographic topic's title to a person, that you had made a well-informed judgment that there's nothing worth knowing about the
Tomsaete that would be missing from a good biography of Humberht: that he was the heart and soul to them as
Alexander the Great was to the
Macedonian Empire, or
Ross Perot was to the
Reform Party. Your good intentions would probably profit from picking out some Dabs that interest you from
Category:Disambiguation pages in need of cleanup, and watchlisting them to see what your colleagues do to deal with those Dabs' respective problems. Thanks,

This was deleted in 2006, and then redeleted in 2008 citing that the first time (2006) it was deleted as per a discussion. The records do not provide a link to this discussion though.
