Please click here to leave me a new message and I will respond on your talk page. If I have left you a message on your talk page, please respond here. I have better things to do than to stalk your talk page, just as you have more important priorities that to keep watching and/or checking back with mine (unless you don't, in which case I suggest joining your local YMCA or perhaps adopting a puppy) and, frankly, the idea of someone watching my talk page sorta creeps me out. But then again, if you were not inclined to respond here and instead replied on your own talk page, you probably aren't reading this, so the point is moot. If that is the case, hopefully I will get around to checking my past posts to other users' talk pages sooner than later, but most likely I won't for a while. Either way, I'm sure that you are a valued editor and keep up the good work (unless you aren't, then should instead start, um, creating good work or something).

[edit] Pwned? On a spaghetti-sauce-masquerading-as-chili-argument?

No not really. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 02:21, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

oops, my bad Don't know why I thought that, sorry!! You from Kentucky then? You're interested in Southern Ohio, so my assessment of your location belief stems from that. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 17:56, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Yeah Adminship is something I would aspire to. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 18:14, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the helpful guidelines and suggestions! JWithing (talk) 15:01, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Jerem43

I noticed that you nominated Jerem43 for administration. While I cannot know what qualifies an individual for Wikipedia administration, I would hope individuals that have recently violated Wikipedia's own policies and guidelines on cavility and courtesy. Please refer to this discussion to inform your opinions. If such behavior and attitude is condoned, I have no issue.

I'm WP:AGF on his attempt to remove a spam link, but I've removed them for the time being to let Jerem43 decide how to proceed. Cheers. youngamerican (wtf?) 19:08, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Just to let you know I have established a check user on this guy, made three days ago when this issue arose. He keeps re-adding a spam link to a company that specializes in franchise management to this article that was originally made by a SPA called User:Franchiseguru. He has been violating rules regarding legal threats while evading the point, his personal attack comments refer to a simple L1 warning I gave him when he started restoring the links I was deleting. I have been trying to keep out of an edit war, and have removed all of the stuff he is claiming as plagiarism.--Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 20:57, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
If there is something to discuss about the article, I welcome further discussion on that article's discussion page. I'm simply here trying to inform User:Youngamerican that he or she may wish to observe current behavior and attitude in dealing with a conflict opinion. When nominating someone to be an administrator, one hopes that they would uphold each and every policy of the site, especially the ones that deal with communication. I believe that the rude and course manner in which you address my concerns is not very becoming. It brings doubts to any ability to an effective administrator. I bring up concerns here, as I don't really care if you continue the nomination or not, I just enjoy all facts being known.
The concerned is doubled when I see that Jarem43 has felt the need to delete my questions and comments from his own talk page, without addressing them. It suggests that he is attempting to hide certain behaviors that he is aware are inappropriate. One then questions what other comments in the past have been removed that might also have reflected poorly.152.16.10.191 (talk) 16:24, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wal-Mart (disambiguation) at DR

Just letting you know that the discussion for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wal-Mart (disambiguation) (3rd nomination) has been listed for deletion review at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2009 July 15. You may be interested in commenting.Tatterfly (talk) 14:02, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Southern Ohio

Do you know any editors from southern Ohio who are active? I'd like to see if someone could get a photo for a specific location, but I can't do that until I can find someone to ask. Thanks! Nyttend (talk) 22:11, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Fiber One bars‎

Hello! Why did you create this as a redirect to an article in which the product is not even mentioned? —David Levy 12:10, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Kayball

I saw that you deleted the page Kayball. I dont understand why this was done because it is a real game and is being referenced for rules and things of that nature. I would appreciate it if you could undelete it however I am not sure you can do that, if so that would be great. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kayball (talkcontribs) 16:04, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

We are actively attempting to make a fully compilable article for the sport of kayball... Please stop deleting it while it is under construction —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.127.16.181 (talk) 00:26, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] PROD Removal

Without references from 2005, it can be deleted. Since you have contested my proposed deletion, I will take this to AFD, as it fails WP:V. Mr.TrustWorthy----Got Something to Tell Me? 00:49, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Never mind. I will rather attempt to find certain sources. Mr.TrustWorthy----Got Something to Tell Me? 02:17, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Which other process do you recommend to get the talk subpage deleted other than pord then? Munci (talk) 09:43, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I think it can go under G8. Would you agree? Munci (talk) 11:14, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Hi There

I want to add pictures to some articles. If I can somehow send you the images, can you perhaps upload these images to the wikipedia database, so that I can then add them to the page I'm creating? I've made several contributions to articles in Wiki, but I still don't have auto-confirmed status, and thus can't upload the pictures myself. Can you perhaps give me the rights to upload images?

Thanks. Louis.Manuel Louis.manuel (talk) 18:51, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Kenny MacAskill

You recently semi-protected this article. That protection expires tommorow; would you extend it? Given that the subject is still very much in the news and tempers are still flared, the risk of vandalism seems no lower now than when protection was granted.- Simon Dodd { U·T·C·WP:LAW } 17:53, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

  • Thanks.- Simon Dodd { U·T·C·WP:LAW } 02:09, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] lifetime

It's not just him, sadly. It is natural for people who see this template to want to use it, they see it as helping WP. Even the very experienced Pascal666 didi this today. I fixed over a thousand redundant uses of the template, I really think it has to go. Rich Farmbrough, 11:52, 2 September 2009 (UTC).


The "from" categories I am guessing he is interpreting it as "born", this is not right. I want to confirm that next. Then he will probably be just as tireless getting it right. As far as I can see they are good faith edits, just a little off true. Rich Farmbrough, 11:55, 2 September 2009 (UTC).

[edit] Humdicrib

I just followed the instructions in Wikipedia:Deletion policy. If this is wrong for redirects, please feel free to put the correct thing in, as you obviously know what to do.

(I moved this stupid misspelt thing to the correct spelling and wikipedia itself created another redirect to replace it!!) Kremmen (talk) 20:00, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re: NJ Rt. 64

No problem. Several other editors held the same opinion, and we came to a consensus that this was the best move. A RfC will likely be necessary in the future. –blurpeace (talk) 05:30, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Note

Thank you for caring re: my loss. DS (talk) 21:32, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Adult Mormon Convert

Thanks for taking care of that redirect page deletion. I went with a PROD because I couldn't figure out what speedy criteria would fit. I wasn't sure if calling someone an adult Mormon convert (which I think Beck has said he is) was an attack. Strange case. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 15:23, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Works for me. Thanks. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 15:30, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Added oldprodful to Zack Ryders (redirect)

I thought I would let you know so you can edit the oldprodful I left at Talk:Zack Ryders. -- allennames 15:47, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

I have been reading WP:PROD and I think the Objecting section may need some editing to clarify when removal is not an objection to deletion. If you wish to respond please send me an email. -- allennames 16:49, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello, I just wanted to mention here that you were mentioned at WT:PROD in this matter. I see that on Allen4names' talk page that you said that your changing the article into a redirect should not be seen as contesting the prod. However, you did in fact contest the proposed deletion by your actions; you said that the article deserves to stay, although it should stay as a redirect, not a true article. If you want to comment about this line of reasoning, and/or you wish to support the proposed changes to the proposed deletion policy please give your input on the talk page. Thank you. -- Atama 23:15, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
BTW. When you use an acronym in a message please make sure it is understood. I had to look BTW up. -- allennames 23:49, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
O RLY? :P youngamerican (wtf?) 23:56, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
Thank you. -- allennames 00:18, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Photo request

Do you take photo requests? If so, would you mind photographing the Comair headquarters on Comair Boulevard at Cincinnati Airport? The Comair article needs a photo of its headquarters. Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 20:59, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

  • Ah, ok. Thanks anyway :) WhisperToMe (talk) 15:42, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RfA thanks

Admin mop.PNG Thank you for voting in my RfA, which failed with 21 support, 39 oppose, and 11 neutral.
This is highly belated, but I wanted to thank you for the nomination. I do apologize for taking so long to reply to you, after the failure I laid back for a while. I just dove into another article and am working more diligently on WP.

[edit] Vandalism? Desrutuiveness?

Information.svg Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Mountain Parkway Byway. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. youngamerican (wtf?) 18:48, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

I don't do that to be desruptive or to vanadlise, i do it to keep the number of messages and/or comments down to a mininum. --Todd Schoolcraft (talk) 22:19, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

We've got plenty of room for all of the comments. When it gets a bit long, we archive them. youngamerican (wtf?) 12:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Unreferenced BLP

You voted keep in the Chuck_Mills AFD. Talk:Chuck_Mills#Unreferenced_info_removed I just removed the unreferenced text to the talk page, and added one reference. You are welcome to find sources and add back this material. Okip (the new and improved Ikip) 23:11, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
