VE issues?

Hey PBASH607. I'm on the lookout for issues with the new editor. I see you were having problems with this edit: [1]. What were you trying to do there? PEarley (WMF) (talk) 20:11, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi there PEarley (WMF)!, Well I was going to give VE a test drive and I tried to do a small touchup, but it removed three (''')'s, and the whole text became bold, so I undid the edit because the entire article got messed up. Sorry for that little inconvenience :P. Prabash.Akmeemana 20:23, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
No apology needed, apologies are all ours! Still some bugs with VE, and we're trying to track them down. Thanks for testing. I'll try to figure out what happened there. Were you using the italics or bold buttons on the toolbar to make your edit? PEarley (WMF) (talk) 20:29, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Oh I see, its still in its beta release so yeah that probably explains the bugs recently. If you look closely at the edit you may notice that the three (''')'s are tampered with and that was something I never touched, I wanted to get rid of the "also" part towards the end of the paragraph. Well Thank you so much for being nice enough to address the issue PEarley (WMF), I appreciate it. Prabash.Akmeemana 20:37, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Hmm, it really shouldn't be doing that. I've reported the problem to the developers here [2]. Again, thanks for testing. Be sure to let me know if you have any other problems when using VE, Prabash. (by the way, UofT, good school! UBC is better, though ;)) PEarley (WMF) (talk) 21:07, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, i'm going to be active on the Test-Wiki doing work with VE, I think its time to do some extensive tests with a sample article then report any issues. BTW I heard good comments about UBC, I would go, but I live really really far away, to go to my campus all I have to do is take the train, finish classes and come home, I costs less than boarding :) Prabash.Akmeemana 21:17, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Your adoption

Hello,

I just wanted to inform you that I'll be expecting your adoption test for Copyright to be finished by the time I come back after waking up tomorrow :)

Please make sure you actually are making progress on that.

Adoption

I am available to adopt if you would do me the honors I would much appreciate that. I have been stumbling around here for the past year or so and figure its about time to get serious. I did just start a brand new job two weeks ago so my time here will be sporadic but I am a serious and conscientious editor who takes pride in doing a good job at editing; helping with some minor clean up, adding additional information to different articles when I get the time, fixing disambiguation links, etc... Thanks so much for your offer. PS It appears that the image that I had questions about deleting has been taken care of? (not sure how to link to commons but will try with this link hXXp://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Coffee_Painting_by_Tattoo%27d_Waitress.jpg File:Coffee Painting by Tattoo'd Waitress.jpg I went to check it out and of course not sure if the move to commons and deletion of original has been completely finished. It seems to still be appearing on two different web addresses. If you could take a look that would be great. I look forward to hearing from you and await further instruction. TattØØdẄaitre§ lĖTŝ tÅLĶ 21:55, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Ok sounds good, I will create the page which takes some time. I will ping you in when ready (probably before Friday), the image you uploaded is taken care of, I notified a file mover via email and he should take care of that, if he doesn't the bot will do it automatically so least of your worries. Prabash.Akmeemana 22:14, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Great thanks again. You mention you need to create a page? Does this mean an adoption page? Or are you referring to something else as I haven't a clue. Smiles. TattØØdẄaitre§ lĖTŝ tÅLĶ 22:33, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Adoption page, also take in note there is a chance that another user might sub in for me during the course, say I take a wiki break or something, but that will be the least of your worries Prabash.Akmeemana 22:37, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Ahhh ok thanks no problem...TattØØdẄaitre§ lĖTŝ tÅLĶ 22:42, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Sorry for jumping in here, but as a user getting adopted yourself, I dont think you should be thinking of adopting another user, PBash. I thought you'd better know that.
Tattoodwaitress, I would suggest asking any of the other possible active adopters if they'd be willing to set up adoption for you. Cullen328 would make an excellent choice too, if he agrees.
Regards, TheOriginalSoni (talk) 22:45, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
TheOriginalSoni I did not realize that PBASH607 is actually under adoption at this time and was just taking him up on his offer but I think you might be right I agree. I should go with some one who has more experience and not presently adopted out hisself. I am really really grateful you offered as it reminded me of the adoption process. Ok so that means you dont need to make the adoption page for me. Thank you everyone. TattØØdẄaitre§ lĖTŝ tÅLĶ 23:02, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Tattoodwaitress I have to agree with TheOriginalSoni, on this one best to find another adopter Sorry :( But if you have any questions feel free to ask me as I haven't let you down yet Prabash.Akmeemana 23:07, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
(edit conflict) No worries Tattoodwaitress :) As I previously suggested, Jackson Pebbles and Cullen328 would make excellent adoptees for you if either of them agree. Feel free to ask them, or any of the other current adopters for your course :) TheOriginalSoni (talk) 23:08, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
No worries PBASH607 and no you have not let me down. Have a great day!! TattØØdẄaitre§ lĖTŝ tÅLĶ 23:13, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kent E Calder, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ohira (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I noted your edit. I changed the name with M. for better linking and grammar. Could I ask you to please review the edit and check the status of the article against the points you made. I think it now justifies removing those banners. Would you agree and would you do that please? Robertforsythe (talk) 17:50, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

 Done good work Robertforsythe! Prabash.Akmeemana 17:53, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks to you too. Anything you can do to draw closer the parameters of Augustus M. Kelley would be appreciated. I have examples of the books but don't know about copyright and Commons to upload images.Searching Wikipedia makes it clear the pubisher did a notable amount of publishing hence the number of sources where they (he?) is cited, but there is a lot more to do with links within Wikipedia and extracting some more hard facts.

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
Congratulations on completing 5000+ edits! It's a great milestone, keep up the great work. My regards. Faizan 13:39, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
I bet I am a little bit late for that star. Anyway, you are doing awesome work with AWB. I will start off with you for AWB one day. Will help? Faizan 13:40, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Thank you so much Faizan! by all means any help is appreciated or comments on my mistakes on AWB if there are any. Prabash.Akmeemana 13:47, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Don't mention it Prabash. I was actually asking you for some tips for AWB editing. You edit good and fast with that! Faizan 13:52, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Oh I see, Faizan its pretty easy to pile up article space edits with AWB; Generate a list with new pages only, set the skip options and check off the following boxes "No Changes are made" and "only minor genfixes" and click save for every edit that goes by, remember to check to see if you are doing it right, and there you go, you can mass up a lot of edits on article space with that. Prabash.Akmeemana 13:59, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
My regards Prabash. I will try it out. Thanks. Faizan 14:03, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Great northern tilefish

Hi, in case you haven't noticed, I have reviewed your nomination. FunkMonk (talk) 23:19, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

I wonder.

How do you know which article is orphan or no links to it?Manzzzz(talk) 15:01, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

My friend, I use a tool called AutoWikiBrowser it automatically detects if it is an orphan or not. Prabash.Akmeemana 15:10, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
I have this watchlisted because of my comment above. Simply go to "toolbox" on the left of an article, and click "what links here". If there are no links, it is an orphan. FunkMonk (talk) 15:13, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
FunkMonk, I am new to AWB like I just started using the tool over the weekend, I see you reverted my edit as a clear violation of rule #4... Care to enlighten me as to what happened? Prabash.Akmeemana 15:18, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi. I'm not sure what you're referring to. On what page? FunkMonk (talk) 15:29, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
Oh! sorry FunkMonk, I messed it up, it was a different user :P. Prabash.Akmeemana 15:32, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Orphan Tag

Hey, could you please remove the orphan tag from the article Rajiv Yuva Kiranalu, as I have linked it to other Wikipedia articles. It was a work in progress, hence I couldn't do it earlier. Thanks. Devanshi1208 (talk) 06:58, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Edit on Philippine National Bank

Hi,

You may have reviewed history of edits on the Philippine National Bank page. The reason for removal is the edit done by user with IP 161.217.43.38 is a direct attack to the institution. The last sentence of what he/she inserted writes "PNB, once and for all, has to settle this issue, abide by the court ruling and return to PHMIC, its rightful money. Boycott PNB."

Thank you.

  • Holla PBASH,
Just wanted to inform you that the revert you performed on the page added copyrighted content, which then had to be revdelled.
Please be careful about it the next time.

The question about The Hellacopters singles

Good day! I noticed, that you edited that page. Could you please tell me, do I have the right to load the covers for the songs in tables (templates)? I think, this page will look better. Because I'm just a beginner...and I saw that in similar situation one user had loaded covers in Mew discography, but such covers were deleted by another user.

Hello PBASH607! Thank you for being a host at the Teahouse. However, we haven't heard from you lately, so our bot has moved your Host profile from the host landing page to the host breakroom.

We need help with vandal patrol training

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but there has been a lot of discussion about NAO clerking on PERM. Admins have to do the same research anyway, and generally will not be guided by NAO. What you are effectively doing with this is turning it into a discussion board. You might find the discussions here, and here of interest. Where we do need a lot of help is adopting some of these users in the ways of effective vandal patrolling - you can help by adding your name as a trainer at the WP:CVUA, and if you need any help in getting started, don't hesitate to ask me (I re-designed the system). Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:54, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Sounds great! I'm currently adopted by Soni but aiding other users outside of discussions is perfectly fine with me aswell. Prabash.Akmeemana 14:58, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Re: RfP Reviewer

Hello. Well I do understand the job of reviewer but I believe it would be difficult for me to make you believe that I do. ;) Let me tell you what I do currently and then you can me tell if thats not what this role expects. Most of my recent contributions are of reverting vandalism but not mere revert. In case I see some info which could be true then I do search of the sources myself and add that piece of info to the article, which also includes removing cn tags. Some of my watched pages are having "pending changes" controls but I dont get to accept those and have to wait till any other reviewer comes and accepts those. Feel free to ask any questions you have. - Vivvt (Talk) 23:43, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Then my dear friend, Reviewer will be much suitable for you! Prabash.Akmeemana 23:46, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Good to know. - Vivvt (Talk) 23:53, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Closing CVUA

I have decided to close down your CVUA course page due to inactivity. And since more or less you are doing ok with countering vandalism, maybe you do not need it.--Vigyanitalkਯੋਗਦਾਨ 01:27, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Vigyani, you may close it, I have been adopted so my inactivity there was excusable yet inn-acceptable, though you may assist in my adoption course when my adopter gets Lazy you can mark the tests I get there. Prabash.Akmeemana 01:32, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi there. Am I missing something obvious? What did he do to deserve a template message warning "Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use talk pages for inappropriate discussion, you may be blocked from editing"? Thanks, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:34, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

That doesn't sound right at all, though this doesn't have to do with his retirement notice but his socking behavior as seen here:[3] and various other places... I am removing the warning notice Prabash.Akmeemana 05:07, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for creating it. I'm glad you did. :)

Please take a look at this diff: [4]

Some of the points:

  • Stub tag goes below cats
  • It's a species article, not genus
  • Single line space between sections
  • WoRMS page shows synonyms. What you are writing is a species article so a taxonomy list with a list of species doesn't make sense.
  • You are encouraged to make synonym redirects to prevent others from accidentally recreating the article.

Best wishes and thanks again. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:50, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Prabash. I realise that your comments on Worm's talk page are with the very best of intentions, but it might be a good idea now to leave the rest to the admins -if you read the thread you'll see that Arctic is probably not the user Worm has in mind. Such cases sometimes also attract the attention of other younger or less experienced users who simply prolong the issue with a risk of the page becoming more like a blog or a social networking site. Take care, and happy editing! :) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:19, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Oh sorry Kudpung, I was looking for a replacement for my previous adopter Soni, I don't think I was fueling the issue in anyway or socializing..

Quick sig question

Why are you using i tags in your signature? Wouldn't the classic wikitext double apostrophe do the trick? -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 09:17, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Right you are Numbermaniac but I kinda miss the old days of HTML, sorry I just like to live in the past Prabash.Akmeemana 09:30, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
Lol ok. But you might want to switch to <em> tags, as the i tag was deprecated in the move from HTML 4.01 to HTML 5. em is the HTML 5 way, which would allow better conformity for all browsers. :) -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 11:41, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Tony Accardo

Hello Prabash,

Regarding your revision to the Tony Accardo page, please know that my name is Eric Olsen, and I am the son of Gary, who was the child born as a result of Elaine Wondra's affair with Tony Accardo. As my original addition stated, both Gary and Lawrence (his adoptive father) confirm this information, so I'm unsure why the addition was removed. Nobody is seeking to profit from this information, and despite the name of my production company, I have no intention of turning this into a project of any kind.

I have been trying to learn how to post sources and, more specifically, how to cite their affirmations, so any guidance you may be able to provide me would be appreciated.

Until then, I'm going to go ahead and restore my revision.

Thank you,

Eric Olsen Chicago Outfit Films (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)July 9, 2013

Hello, I'm just curious on your acceptance of this article People who Have Played Éponine Thénardier from Les Misérables it has no references and inline citations. (chat) techatology 00:14, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Hm, I left a note to add references on the talk page, Techatology, I'm going to move it back to it's WP:AFC page if you dont mind, or we can add references ourselves, I am not as experience with WP:AFC. Thoughts? Prabash.Akmeemana 00:18, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Adding references is not our job us reviewers it's the job of the author. I already nominated it for deletion because it has no references and inline citations. Please be more careful next time. (chat) techatology 00:24, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Sorry Techatology, I really am. I'm going to discuss about WP:AFC with my mentor before jumping in to help out. Though we did do a really good job with the backlog. :) Prabash.Akmeemana 00:30, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
ok(chat) techatology 00:41, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks

- for removing your most recent comment from JamesBwatson's talk page. I think it would be a good idea now if you were to take all the pages related to WorldTraveller and RetroLord off your watchlist for a while, and concentrate more on the areas where you already do your best work. We probably do not want to encourage users to take part in areas for which they have not yet have reached the threshold of experience. There is also a limit to the extent of socialising and banter, and Wikipedia is not an sn site ;) Take care, and if you ever need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask me, although I'm likely to be away for several days in a couple of weeks at Wikimania in Hong Kong. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:01, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

 Done user talk pages on my watchlist are removed, I came back from shredding a 55 page backlog at WP:AFC so I'm just chilling at the moment, WT has chosen his path and I don't want to join that path, so I'm going back to article space dont worry, anyways 60% of my 7000 edits are article space :)

It's healthy to comment on talk pages regarding wikipedia but inappropriate to comment about non-wiki topics.. Though the comment at retro lords talk page was meant to drive him to help assist in the backlog at WP:AFC. anyways theyre the least of my worries now. Enjoy wikimania Hong Kong!

My questions

Hello Prabash,

Yesterday, I asked you several detailed questions on my talk page, in response to your question there. You asked me to read your user page, and indicated (though it wasn't clear) that you would create a sub page. I read your user page and it didn't answer all my questions. You haven't given me a link to a sub page. But on then other hand, you have made comments indicating that I have agreed to a mentorship. My perception is that I agreed to discuss it, but not to go ahead with it. So, please clarify things for me. Thank you. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:57, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Cullen, is that you? It looks like you forgot to log in I apologize sincerely, I must have misunderstood apologies again but I will create an autobiography about me in a bit, its 12:30 AM here and I was busy today... That was inexcusable.
Sorry for posting without logging in. I have now signed my post. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:57, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Lets Clarify things up a bit

Ok I told you to read my userpage, that counts for the auto biography you wanted, if you want I may create a sub -page about myself if you want to know a bit more than what was provided on my user page. if you want a link to the previous adoption course I had with Soni, you can find it at User:TheOriginalSoni/Adopt/PBASH607 that's where I left off in adoption and what I know so far. I honestly thought you agreed to mentor but I guess I was mistaken :( Prabash.Akmeemana 04:41, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Prabash, the unanswered questions are: "Tell me what problems led you to request mentorship, what progress you've made so far, and which issues still need work? Please tell me how far along you are in your mentorship coursework? What can I do to help you reach your goals?" In addition, I was hoping for some personal insights beyond what you reveal on your user page, although that is optional.
A really important skill for a Wikipedia editor is to read no more and no less into a text than what the original writer intended. This is true when summarizing and paraphrasing sources while creating and expanding articles, and is also true when interacting successfully with other editors. Experienced editors will normally be concise in phrasing their questions, and will expect a concise, responsive answer. Thank you. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:06, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Replied to you via email. Prabash.Akmeemana 12:13, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Your email

Hello Prabash,

Thanks for your email. I will respond in a few hours. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 14:51, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay. Prabash.Akmeemana 14:59, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
I responded to your email, Prabash. I still have some questions and will make a decision about finishing up your mentorship when you answer. Thanks. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 20:07, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

EDUN and Soni

Hi prabash, ar you there? Have you heard from soni? How's the review of EDUN? Can I do something? Miss Bono [zootalk] 14:53, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Yeah I'm here :)
Check the talkpage of EDUN, I have done the mock GA review. BUT before it becomes GA, it must pass a B class review.. Would you mind if I review it for B class now? Oh and I got a hold of Soni on the IRC, I don't think he'll be back soon. Prabash.Akmeemana 14:58, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
I haven't checked my email. I cannot check it until September I wish I had an email from him. And yeah, feel free to make that B class review. Thanks :P Miss Bono [zootalk] 12:38, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Start Snuggle

IRC office hours for wiki-mentors and Snuggle users

Hi. We're organizing an office hours session with the Teahouse to bring in mentors from across the wiki to try out Snuggle and discuss it's potential to support mentorship broadly. The Snuggle team would appreciate it if you would come and participate in the discussion. We'll be having it in #wikimedia-office connect on Wed. July 17th @ 1600 UTC. See the agenda for more info. --EpochFail(talkwork), Technical 13 (talk), TheOriginalSoni (talk) 18:32, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi! I just wanted to post a reminder that this discussion will be happening in about 24 hours. See you there. --EpochFail(talkwork) 15:20, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
I may be retired here, but I will still attend the discussion! Thank you! Prabash.Akmeemana 15:22, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Prabash! I'm stoked that you're interested in Snuggle and that you'll be able to attend the discussion. However, I don't think it's appropriate to have you sign the invitation since you weren't part of the group of organizers. A place that we could really use your help is in brainstorming ideas for types of mentoring that Snuggle might support. As you can see at Wikipedia:Snuggle/IRC/2013-07-17, we're hoping to identify some spaces where Snuggle can be useful. I don't think that we should wait to start the discussion until the office hours. Feel free to kick off the talk page there with any ideas you have. --EpochFail(talkwork) 19:40, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

I completely understand. Sorry about that EpochFail. But is it okay if I welcome users? I have been doing that since. Prabash.Akmeemana 19:56, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
Absolutely! Let me know if you run into trouble or if you feel like there's something missing from Snuggle.  :) --EpochFail(talkwork) 20:02, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
Its awesome! So far no bugs, and it runs fluently on my computer. I haven't tested it on my iPad yet.... Prabash.Akmeemana 20:04, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, a bit of a warning when using it on an iPad... I haven't tried it on the computer, but just expect slight lag and possible browser crashes when using it on an iPad... A suggestion: when using it, always stay in the snuggle tab while the page is loading. If you do something else while the page is loading, the browser will crash. -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 00:56, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
It works perfectly on my Ipad until I open a new tab, also I will see if there are times for people who live on the other side of the world, if you want to attend the meeting. Prabash.Akmeemana 02:32, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

New here

Hey Prabash,

I'm trying to delete the "Wikipedia:" in front of "Angelo Nikolopoulos." I thought deleting the text and starting anew would fix, but doesn't seem to. Sorry, I'm new to wiki and a bit confused. Any help you can offer would be great.

Thanks, AD — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poetry2013 (talkcontribs) 23:29, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

It seems you are trying to do a cut and paste move, which is highly not reccomended... It looks like its already done, so we can't do anything now but to call an admin to do a history merge. Next time it would gladly be appreciated if you do a normal page move by clicking the dropdown arrow beside "history", need anymore help, comment again, I would gladly go indepth with this. Prabash.Akmeemana 23:40, 12 July 2013 (UTC)


Would you recommend deleting the page, as I created it and have only made edits, and creating a new, corrected one once it's deleted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poetry2013 (talkcontribs) 23:43, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Why not move it back to the AFC area? you can keep working on it there, I now see the mistake you did... it appears that you created a redirect from the real article name to the wrong name. It looks like a big enough mess was created, if you want it deleted, then request it. Prabash.Akmeemana 23:48, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Need a trainer

To pass this CVUA. can you be my trainer?? Miss Bono [zootalk] 13:27, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Miss Bono after all the harsh criticism I've been getting off wiki, I don't think I will be able to do a CVUA course in general for you. Sorry, but there are many editors who are avalible to help you fight vandalism, just look at the list of trainers, and just an FYi, I might be retiring soon because of all the trouble I have caused here, <------- Thats why I won't be a CVUA instructor for the time being.

Thank You

Thank you for the lovely offer of support and the warm welcome :) I do have a few questions in regards to citations - what is the general consensus about citing PDFs? I read a bit of a mixed review in some of the forums/talk rooms and saw it was something possibly up for deletion. I'm unsure as to whether this has gone ahead as many pages still reference PDFs. Should I go ahead with a PDFLink? Cheers in advance Anoewyn80 (talk) 01:54, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Hey, don't mention it! I'm always glad to have a nice editor here on WP. When it comes to citing PDF's its fine, make sure the document is about the topic and is a reliable source pointing out the info. There's nothing wrong with citing a PDF! the same applies to Ebooks and other online book databases. Remember an article goes up for deletion if it violates wikipedia guidelines or meets any of the described Deletion Criterion, citing PDF's do not mean the article will be deleted.. not at all! Happy editing Prabash.Akmeemana 02:11, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Your Oppose Vote at RfA

Hey,

Just wanted to post that your Oppose vote at the RfA was nothing but pathetic. Except for a group of bad faith editors, I havent and dont expect to see such passive-aggressive tactics [Switching from Support to Oppose] when you're being questioned. Your original messages at the IRC weren't good at all, but this is even worse.

AfC

I am not one of the people who decline afc's for minor formatting problems, but I'm a little surprised you accepted the article on Brigid Harrington in the state it was in at the time. I've now spent considerable time trying to make it look like a WP article, and I'm not yet finished. It's worth it, for the performer is notable and deserves a proper article that doesnt look like a PR page put in the wrong web site. DGG ( talk ) 04:16, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Notable, yes and at the time of review, it was the primary concern and the author clearly fixed that reference issue, I guess, but this is a major formatting problem, infact there should be a user infobox instead of a table, this formatting issue comes in mind for the next time I review an article, this is the second mistake I made in two months so I apologize for having to waste your time cleaning up my errors constantly.
