Speedy deletion nomination of Jimmy Henchman

Before you go nominating stuff for speedy deletion you should use this thing called Google and do a wiki search. You will see Jimmey Henchman mentioned in dozens of wikipedia pages, administrators like you make people not want to contribute....--Ron John (talk) 23:04, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Please try to remain civil and read the criteria for inclusion of an article. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 23:05, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Before deleting you should maybe help out rather than take the easy route and delete... I do want I want...--Ron John (talk) 11:52, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

At the time I nominated it for deletion it was an article saying it was about Henchman and was in reality about his company. Henchman just featured in the opening line. So I suggested it be deleted. Others suggested not. That is what consensus is about. Consensus prevailed. Good. I care, but not that much. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 15:26, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

NO! You just deleted it without providing that information you just wrote. I think you just troll around looking for things to delete rather than doing some research to help the article you and your fanboys just delete stuff without helping.. People like you should be stripped of there privvilages.--Ron John (talk) 18:10, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

I deleted nothing. I nominated it for deletion. Someone disagreed with my opinion refused to delete it. That's the way Wikipedia works. Look here and you will see with precision what happened. Then look at the history and see what has happened since then. I have no interest in responding to you any further if you persist in yelling at me and being abusive.

Friending

• Commercial friending (AfD discussion)

I recommend a look at the edit history of Friending (AfD discussion). Jonathan de Boyne Pollard (talk) 16:47, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your recommendation. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 17:18, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Contested speedy deletion of Brad Chalmers

I have removed the speedy tag on Brad Chalmers, as I have been able to verify that a person by this name did get drafted by the Canadian Football League's Montreal Alouettes in 1999 as claimed in the article, which qualifies as a credible claim to notability. However, I have not been able to verify that he actually meets the notability criteria. I need to do some WP:BEFORE due diligence first before opening an AfD. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 22:38, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Please go ahead. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 22:40, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brad Chalmers. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 15:50, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Good call. I don't feel strongly either way, but I think you have done the right thing both times. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 16:20, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Welcoming users

I notice when you warn users (PROD, CSD, etc.), you won't always welcome them. Welcoming users along with the warning can help them with Wikipedia guidelines if they wish to start the articles again. Welcoming users will help them rather than warning and suspending them. I find that {{subst:w-graphical}} is very detailed and informative, but you can pick any from the welcome messages category. Thanks, SwisterTwister talk 06:10, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Twinkle was modified some time ago to do this automatically, I thought. I was the person who suggested it. I use Twinkle. I do what it does. Perhaps you might like to suggest the owner/operator of it modifies it still further? I agree with you. They should be welcomed. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 08:27, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Ermitanyo

Hello Timtrent. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Ermitanyo, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: doesn't appear to be a host (I'll ask someone who speaks tagalog to take a look). Thank you. SmartSE (talk) 13:45, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

I think you mean hoax. As far as I can tell it translates to Hermit. Your call :) Fiddle Faddle (talk) 13:49, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Woops. Yes I did mean hoax! It wasn't clear that it was a hoax, but Obsidian Soul had a look and they agreed it was, so I've deleted it. If you tag articles as G3, it helps if you explain why it is a hoax on the talk page, or in your edit summary. Cheers SmartSE (talk) 14:10, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Now there is an improvement suggestion to make for Twinkle. Fancy suggesting it? Fiddle Faddle (talk) 17:03, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

About Stochocrcy:

You asked that it should be notable and verifieable: There is a website on the French Wikipedia devoted to it: See: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochocratie — Preceding unsigned comment added by Piet De Pauw (talk • contribs) 15:35, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Actually I don't care at all about the topic. If it's notable and verifiable, put this in the article, or, if it has been deleted, crete a new article with the references in it. Use your obvious energies to create articles, not to discuss whether an article was notable and ought or ought not to have been deleted. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 17:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Tidal impact Wiki Page

Thank You for your help on the Tidal Impact page. I just have a Question. Is it good enough now to remain on the wiki? It is a local event with out a lot in writing in the way of sources. Or are there any tips you might have to help me keep this page active? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.34.25.139 (talk) 20:57, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

I have no idea, I'm afraid. We are a community. I suspect it needs ripping apart and redrafting, but that's just my opinion. As lomng as it is well referenced in reliable sources then it ought to be able to remain Fiddle Faddle (talk) 21:01, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you

Hi, I am clearly not having a good time with all of this and I hope that me typing this here doesn't muck up your page but you are the first person to give me proper pointers and advice on how to "Do the Wiki". Everyone else has thus far been less than helpful so thank you. I now understand that there IS a conflict of interest with what I was attempting to post. What (If anything) can I do to help this matter as the guidelines are quite confusing to me!

Thanks again, if you're ever in Kent I'd like to buy you a pint!

C.J Hixon (talk) 01:18, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

The challenge you face is that your item needs to be referred to in what are known as reliable sources but other folk. When it is, then it becomes notable. I'm going to drop a link on your own talk page that ought to help you. I'm miles away from Kent, I fear. I'm in South Devon :) Fiddle Faddle (talk) 01:22, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

Oh thank you so much! That is so super awesome of you!

Thanks buddy! C.J Hixon (talk) 01:30, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of User C.J Hixon/Liquid Inspiration Podcast, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Liquid inspiration podcast. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. MadmanBot (talk) 01:59, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
