Cafe du Monde

I answered your CduM question here. Eclectek ^{C T} 23:05, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

hello again, actually one of my buddies wrote in to try and keep the article..this is all so new to me!! some people are being so anal..thanx for your comments!

Hello Capmango!!! I fixed up Arden Wohl , I liked that you stuck up for me!!! can you see about getting the deletion tag removed, not all socialites are jackasses!! hehe this girl has actually done a crapload of things to help people I put up this article as an anti-Paris kind of thing...please help and feel free to clean it up a bit!!! she has alot of articles written on her!!

Arden Wohl

With regard to this article, I'm please to see you struck through some of your less guarded comments. I'd just like to make it clear that I speedy deleted this page when it was a complete mess, since then I restored it at the author's request as she promised she could improve it. It was my considered opinion several days later that the article was not sufficiently improved to warrant keeping. There were only four sources at that point, three were either bloggy or mentioned her only in passing, there was only one decent source. The article has further been altered since then. If I'm guilty of anything it not reverse-elitism, it's lack of being able to see the future. By the same token I hope you remember that when you're looking at a page you're seeing the current version, not necessarily what someone else saw when they commented.

re Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hotel Buena Vista Beach Resort

Hmmm yeah well. It was close. Basically the article creator was vociferously contending that the resort is of very high quality, which doesn't confer notability. There was really only one other commentor who wanted to keep the article, not counting a weak keep. If you go to deletion review you might have a case though. Herostratus 20:18, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Carl Hewitt

Hi! During the recent AfD discussion about the article Carl Hewitt you expressed some concerns about the article, and suggested that it needed to be rewritten. I have undertaken a substantial rewrite of the article in an attempt to address the concerns raised by you and other editors, and would appreciate it if you could look over the current state of the article to see if you have any suggestions for further improvement. Thanks. --Allan McInnes (talk) 14:07, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Joint Venture (music) AfD

You might want to revisit your !vote at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joint Venture (music); the discography listed in the article was for a different band with the same name (and the band up for deletion was not on that notable label). Precious Roy 14:22, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Wikim3

To Capmango. I have just read your user page and completely agree with what you were saying about useful pages disappearing. I created the page on the Conlang Sangi. I thank you for your comment about it needing a good webpage first and that it may one day be ready for a page on wikipedia. Unfortunately due to the requirements of wikipedia about outside sources and research I did not see this becoming a reality so I am currently working on a very simple website based on the wikipedia page I created. I thank you once again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikim3 (talk • contribs) 17:09, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Life & Death

Sorry dude, had to hack up your changes. None of the heads on the box front worked substantively on the game. You should know that, one of the heads was yours. Troy and Gina too and a guy named Tom who was only there for a few months after I joined.

Life, Death & Donuts

Ack! You're right it was Steve Cox who was the other head. But I'll bet you dollars-to-donuts (even crappy donuts) that is Troy's head on the box. Thanks for the heads-up on the name... --jake 23:16, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Romeo + Juliet

Please excuse my having created a link to a non-existent page; I was in the process of creating Romeo + Juliet (ballet) and a bunch of other City Ballet stuff when the InterNet connection went down out here in Ohio, where I'm visiting my Mom for Thanksgiving. I have now re-created the article and am about to undo your (justified) undo. I hope you understand that I'm not engaging in an undo war, never have, never will. I appreciate your comment on your user page that you're not hiding behind a pseudonymn; neither am I. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robertgreer (talk • contribs) 19:39, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

No harm done! And no significant similarity between the ballet and film, other than use of VERY young dancers; though there may've been some intent to draw the film audience to the ballet by using + instead of & or the word, and. The dancers, especially the ballerinas, proved to be too young. Peter Martins had planned to use girls from the School of American Ballet and City Ballet apprentices rather than principal dancers or soloists. All but one had to be replaced--due to injury--with older dancers. The men's swordfighting was of the highest order; City Ballet brought in fight coordinators and coaches from the film industry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robertgreer (talk • contribs) 04:26, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Possibly unfree Image:Glenn_Wichman_Toxic_ravine.png

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Glenn_Wichman_Toxic_ravine.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Rockfang (talk) 18:07, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand why my image on Toxic Ravine was deleted. It was marked as a "possibly non-free image" and there was a link to a discussion page; on the discussion page I explained why the image was free; I asked for advice on whether anything more needed to be done. No more comments were made in the discussion, and now the image has been removed. What do I need to do to get the image to stay? It is my own creation and I choose to release it to the public domain.

See the discussion here: Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_files/2008_March_10#Image:Glenn_Wichman_Toxic_ravine.png

Please help me do the right thing here. Capmango (talk) 23:38, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I will restore the image. It would help if you uploaded it on a website you control which is clearly linked to your game and stated on that page that it is a public domain image. Stifle (talk) 09:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

You should also crop the image to remove the top menu as that could be considered part of copyrighted computer software. Stifle (talk) 09:56, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Retiring

I apologize for the error, Glenn! I read the statement on your userpage after being led there from a comment from another disenchanted user...and I thought I had checked your contributions to be sure you were inactive. All I can think is that I must have checked someone else's contributions by mistake. I do try to add the template where I've noticed someone I respect has gone, because the list of departed users is a sobering one -- I will be triply careful if I decide to do so again because I'm very embarrassed to have been wrong. Please accept my apologies, and best wishes to you. — Catherine\^talk 23:21, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Glenn

Thanks for setting the record straight on Rogue. I put up the screenshots and caught holy hell from the admins. I am disappointed at the afds, and tried to improve the article on Rogue (Computer Game) and set the record straight. I was hoping that with the article improvement that it would be included in the CD, but its still up in the air. Just for laughs, I created the article on 'The aerodynamic properties of fruit' with the quote: "Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana" and it was deleted for being utter nonsense. Yea!.

Peace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.8.65.213 (talk) 23:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

This image was eventually kept.

To avoid problems in the future, you could lodge a release for the images, with the permission queue on OTRS:)
