Second Sun removal[edit]

You have recently deleted the article on the band "Second Sun". I'm wondering how is this different from Infusion_(band) or should that article be deleted. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.32.138.20 (talk) 09:33, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You have companies on your website that are worth a quarter of this company and you are deleting this page as advertising. Wny? I am trying to understand why you are deleting the eTrafficjams.com webpage. eTrafficjams.com/getupdated.com is an internationally traded company worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

2009 Australian Open[edit]

Sorry for the late reply. Yeah, it gets annoying and the same damn conversation happens every month.

NWO Match[edit]

Yes I know it is not, but we don't have a reliable source that says there is an Elimination Chamber match for SmackDown!.

A question regarding image use[edit]

Hi,

In this edit, you removed 4 fair use images and replaced it with a box. Not understanding image use (seriously, there needs to be an idiot's guide somewhere!) I was wondering if I could get your informed opinion on placing one image (this one) in the info box. Would the cover image still work for fair use even though it is for the series summary rather than the book specifically?

Could we replace more than one image in the infobox? Is it still fair use if we get the four extant, and ultimately all seven books in the series, up on the page?

And if all of this fails, do you know of any way we can get any of the images on the page, to fill out the infobox if nothing else? Thanks, WLU (talk) 19:00, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Haha! Victory! So if I throw together a collage of the current four titles in paint, and mimic the fair use rationale in LOTR and/or Harry Potter, I can use it on the ASOIAF page without the image getting deleted? WLU (talk) 11:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Images are all redlinks now, so I guess they got deleted shortly afterwards.
What are your thoughts on having two sets of cover images? There are two very different sets of images for the series, a very elaborate standard fantasy guys in armor for the first release, and a much more minimalist set released in the states (or second edition, not sure). Is that doable? WLU (talk) 11:49, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I dunno man, that's a lot of work. But that cover looked pretty freakin' cool. I'm torn.
Thanks for your help, much obliged. Incidentally, is there an idiot's guide to image fair use? I've yet to find an editor who unequivocally understands fair use. WLU (talk) 12:14, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
But we can't run around the restrictions by, say, taking a picture of the book cover ourselves and uploading them, right? I tried that, read the FU guidelines, and got confused. WLU (talk) 12:25, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Bugger, so much for gaming the system. I'll put together some sort of collage and have thrown up a straw poll on ASOIAF to see what the preference is. Ultimately, I don't really care so long as there is an image so if someone else beats me to it, it saves me some work. Thanks for your help on this, it's much appreciated.

Stigmater identical to earlier deleted Nemesis SL?[edit]

Hi Lid,

I saw you removed the wave of Nemesis SL band related articles i tagged for removal. The creator of those articles just created a new article, Stigmater. From the looks of it its the same kind of article he created earlier, but somehow i got a feeling the content is almost identical to the previously created article (Same year formed, band member name seem similar, same rock label). I was wondering if you could check if this article is simply the same article posted under a new name, or if this is a completely new article.

Just a suggestion, you may want to consider opening a Commons account if you don't already have one and uploading all free-use images there, that way the images can but used by multiple wiki-projects and not limited to just the English version of Wikipedia, for example the Italian version of the World Series of Poker German etc all can pull from the same source on commons. thank you▪◦▪≡SiREX≡Talk 12:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Canvass[edit]

Hi Lid, When you nominate something for deletion it is considered canvassing to notify others---UNLESS you meet a few criteria. One of those criteria is that you do so in the open. Eg when you notify the Wikiproject Poker, you need to post a note on the XfD that you are doing so, otherwise it may be seen as canvassing. It expected that you notify pertinent wikiprojects, but just note that you are doing so.Balloonman (talk) 00:31, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nicknames[edit]

why do you keep removing nicknames from articles, see examples

It is proper to use the commonname that the person goes by in quotes, like Andy Bloch this is his commonname which is why the article is called Andy Bloch rather then Andrew Bloch, the Quotes "Andy" lets the reader know this is his nickname, although it's widely known Andy is a nickname for Andrew then are other nicknames not so commonly known.▪◦▪≡SiREX≡Talk 12:18, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting up discussion between two talk pages (Barack Obama Sr. and Barack Obama)[edit]

Hi Lid,

I understand your desire to have more input on the article naming, and I don't disagree that with more traffic on the Barack Obama talk page, you're likely to get more informed comment, but usually we simply put a note on one page that there's a discussion going on on another page and ask people to follow a link there. Here's what the guideline about talk pages says about it (WP:MULTI): it may be desirable to move all posts to one of the locations, removing them from the other locations and adding a link.) so why don't you choose one spot and at the bottom of the discussion on the other spot just leave a note saying "discussion continues at _____"? That way you'll have fewer redundant comments. Cheers, Noroton (talk) 15:35, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Walter Sedlmayr edit history required[edit]

Hi Lid. I don't think that I have to give you anything more on the background of the discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/Deletion of Walter Sedlmayr edit history required. I've spent so much time there that I was reluctant to do anything more on Wikipedia. But I am thinking that we are approaching a solution there, either way, and I would like to ask you whether you could comment one more time there. But before that there is on other think I'd like to tell you about. I've studied most of the classic social contract theory, too (Hobbes, Locke, Kant and a little Rousseau), but what decisively influenced my personal views in this debate were Hannah Arendt's considerations about the importance of forgiveness in politics (Vita activa, ch. 5, 33). Of course, the question is not how I personally view this issue, but what Wikipedia should do about this. I think your argument for an inclusion of the full names of the perpetrators rested on wp:N, and I have written a longer reply to this on the discussion page. But, as you know, there is at least one editor there who is completely immune to arguments. If you take a look at the discussion, you will see, that I proposed a solution, which, taken my initial viewpoint into account, is a huge compromise. We would simply remove the names from the article and its discussion page, but we wouldn't purge the edit history. But I can*t just go ahead with this, because I surely would be reverted and I don't have the backup on the discussion page. So, regardless of what you think of this after my arguments, could you just state your view with a few words there? ... I wan to finish the issue now, but I can't just retreat from the discussion.

Lolo[edit]

Hi Lid - I'll have to give this some thought - but quite honestly, I was not and am still not convinced that this article should stand alone at all. I think Lolo Soetoro has no independent notability, and I have believed all along that the article was (or could be) pushed at least in part by some as a vehicle for associating Barack Obama with a Muslim background. I'm not pointing fingers, nor am I suggesting that's your motivation in including this category - I would rather stay away from motivation at this point altogether. But I truly think that Lolo is adequately handled in the section of Ann Dunham that talks about their marriage, and that this is the appropriate place for him. So as far as I'm concerned, the article should be a merge/redirect to Dunham, and this discussion wouldn't be necessary. As for the specifics - my understanding about Lolo is that he was not a practicing Muslim, so what is the reason for including him in that category? I'll give this some more thought, but that's where I am on first look. I don't suppose this is helpful to your position, but I did want to give you my honest reaction. (By the way - I didn't archive most of the page, actually - I just finished what Elonka started earlier in archiving a bit more material from June and July that she missed. I'm not sure why she stopped where she did, but the threads I archived were just as old and had not been added to since, so I see no reason for them to remain on the talk page.) Nice to meet you.

Deletion of Edge Gamers Organization[edit]

Why was this deleted? Did you even read anything on the page? It was posted and deleted so quickly that I doubt so. The reason I added it was because it is one of, if not THE largest gaming community on the internet. This community is so big it has a trademarked name. Over 10,000 registered users.

Deletion of World Stars Of Wrestling[edit]

The federation is still existing, informed before deleting a page, at least. Reggino DOC (talk) 16:59, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:INHERITED[edit]

Yes, actually, I do think that it's a variation on this theme. It's tricky, in my view - I believe that the encyclopedia needs to talk about Lolo, but in fact my position earlier was that all we needed for Lolo was a section in Ann Dunham, which is still pretty much how I feel. It's tricky because although Ann too was not notable solely on her own, it seems to me that enough third-party sources exist - enough has been written about her - that a separate piece on her was warranted. The problem with Lolo (and even Barack Sr) is that their influence on his life was minimal by all accounts, and they had no independent notability to boot, so I don't see the need for separate articles. Plus, much of the material that was added to Lolo is in my view very marginal and not notable: the color of his hair and his height? And I just don't see any evidence of his having such a great influence - it was a handful of years in Barack's childhood, and it's quite apparent that his mother had the great influence on him. And yes, his grandparents who raised him. I've been accused of being on Obama's campaign staff (I'm not) more than I've been accused of being out to get him (also not true), but I really think this is non-partisan and purely a procedural matter: the redirect to Family of Barack Obama#Lolo Soetoro brings a person directly to where the identical material was until a few days ago, and would be again if the merge/redirect is done. If you want my opinion of why some people argue so strenuously for a separate article to "debunk" the false rumors about Obama's religious past - it has long seemed to me that they protest just a bit too much and in fact want to associate the word "Muslim" with Obama any way they can while accusing everyone else of exactly what they're really about. Just my opinion. AGF and all that.Tvoz/talk 01:58, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bow ties[edit]

I hope you didn't think this was an attack on you or anything like that - you were the most recent editor to comment using pretty much the same arguments and I'm wondering how many times each of us can rephrase the same positions. You're right that I've been rather posty there; a lot of posts for "delete" seem to be ignoring various guidelines and policies or just interpreting them differently than I do, and I've been trying to understand why. I'm fairly new at these discussions and, believe it or not, I'm trying to figure out if there's information I don't know that I should that could get me to rethink my own position. At this point, though, it seems that for the most part it's just more of the same, from the same editors, and so I no longer see the point of dragging it out.--otherlleft (talk) 14:59, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you declined the A7 speedy request on this article, which I stumbled across by accident.

Although there is a reference link to CNBC the CNBC listing is, literally, another advertisement only for Doctations.

It's not a blatant ad and I wouldn't speedy it, but it could certainly be AFDed/PRODded. Stifle (talk) 17:31, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

CM Punk[edit]

I wanted to run this by you before I did, since you did most of the work getting Punk's article to FA. About a year ago, the move list was expanded to have separate sections for the indy circuit and WWE> since then, Punk has begun using most of his indy moves in his WWE moveset, making the list sort of redundant. Would you have any objection to collapsing the list back and adding "- WWE" or "- Independent circuit" after the few moves that he's only used in one of those places? Gavyn Sykes (talk) 02:42, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I see what you mean. But I personally think it's necessary to list promotions that way, simply so someone reading the article won't expect Punk to start finishing matches with a Shining Wizard on Raw. If there was a better way to list them, I'd be all for it. Maybe we should bring it up at WT:PW. I agree about Sydal. It should just be moved to his real name already.Gavyn Sykes (talk) 15:52, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What if instead of specifying the promotion, we used years instead. This would indicate a clear timeframe when the move was used. Not sure if it's any better than listing promotions, but it's something. Let me know what you think. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 16:12, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
