Hello and welcome to my talk page! If you have a question, ask me. If I know the answer, I'll tell you; if I don't, I'll find out (or one of my talk-page stalkers might know!), then we'll both have learnt something!

Admins: If one of my admin actions is clearly a mistake or is actively harming the encyclopaedia, please reverse it. Don't wait for me if I'm not around or the case is obvious.

userfication

Hi Harry. I saw you were active - could you please userfy this for me, in regard to assisting me presenting rfarb evidence, if you are involved in any way please say and I will ask another admin - thanks Off2riorob (talk) 00:36, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you much. Off2riorob (talk) 00:52, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

No problem. Let me know if/when you need it gone again. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:53, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Harry -it turned out to not be relevant - excuse me for just template-ing it and not getting back to you, sorry - Off2riorob (talk) 20:31, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

No need to apologise. I just made sure the history got back t where it was supposed to be (to save one very confused admin if it ever has to be undeleted!). HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:35, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Luke Evans

As I illustrated on Talk:Luke Evans (actor), the consensus seems to be that the information should be included. Off2riorob is the lone editor still arguing against inclusion at this point. Can you please remove your protection of the article page, due to this consensus for inclusion? Silverseren^C 19:49, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Unprotected. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:34, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Come On Over Tour

Hey, sorry again for requesting all these moves... but could you move Come On Over Tour to Come on Over Tour? Thank you :) -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 20:31, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

No worries, done. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:32, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Deletion review for Michael Phelps Foundation

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Michael Phelps Foundation. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. .

Also, I'm curious as to why you deleted the redirect as an A6? It seemed like a reasonable search term to me. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 02:45, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Isn't there a requirement that the DRV nominator try to resolve their differences with the admin first? Anyway, I deleted it to allow a move of an AfC submission, per a request at RfUP (the redirect was protected). That's the extent of my involvement, and you'd have to ask Chzz (talk · contribs) about the progress of the AfC. I assumed he would just move it to mainspace once the redirect way out of the way, but perhaps he didn't notice... HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:17, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

~HJ; I see misunderstanding here, and inadvertent but well-intentioned actions, on both our our parts; I tagged it for unprot, seeing a 'valid' AFC (ie, one I could accept if I worked on it a bit), and trying to help it progress - which might've been presumptive. You deleted it, instead of unprot, trying to be helpful to me as you knew I couldn't move over it. a) I prob shouldn't have requested unprot *until* said AFC was ready; b) you prob shouldn't have deleted the redir, because I only asked for unprot. But, I think we both had good intents. If I'd noticed the prot had been removed, and had fixed it up and accepted it...well, that's what should've happened. I try and keep notes to 'check back', but sometimes I fail. Meh :-)  Chzz  ►  22:13, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

I probably should have checked that you actually intended to move it to mainspace! Facepalm! Are you able to move the AfC to mainspace, or should I restore the placeholder redirect? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:29, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

MilHist ACR

Hi HJ, I'm posting this message because I've got an article at MILHIST ACR. I saw that you have reviewed Hawker Siddeley Harrier a few months ago during its ACR, so I thought perhaps you would like to do the same for McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II. I'll do you a favour in return if you give it some comments. Cheers! Sp33dyphil ^{"Ad astra"} 10:32, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

I don't normally review aircraft articles, but the Harrier is a fantastic aircraft, so I'll have a look at it when I can. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:29, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you! I'm looking forward to it. :D Sp33dyphil ^{"Ad astra"} 22:57, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Probable sockpuppet

Nalit (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) looks like one of these guys, and has not edited for any purpose other than to attack GB Fan. I've reverted their 4th–6th edits; I'll leave it to you (or stalkers) as to whether a WP:DUCK block is in order. Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 11:29, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Dougweller got 'em. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:30, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

PNC (Sam Hansen)

Could you take a look at PNC (Sam Hansen) and see if you agree that it would be better restored to its original title of PNC (rapper)? it was moved tothe current title by Nickoso (talk · contribs), who seems to have a thing for renaming pages for no apparent reason. The older name seems more in keeping with conventional dab practice, and doesn't require as much prior knowledge on the part of the reader in order to be found. Thanks. Fat&Happy (talk) 20:24, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

What a mess. I've reverted that and a couple of other moves, and blocked the editor because their talk page is littered with people asking him not to do that. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:58, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Probably for the best. You probably saw that I had reversed a few myself; a couple seemed to be almost justifiable (though not necessary) and I didn't try, but it's like there needed to be an ability to add a user to a watch list just to keep track of what might happen next. Fat&Happy (talk) 21:29, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Quack

Special:Contributions/Selenagomezluver24 *Quack Quack* of Special:Contributions/Iluvrihanna24. Tag and block please and thanks :) - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 23:21, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Oh look, another one! Blocked. Not sure there's much point in tagging them, but you;re welcome to if you think it's worth it. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:26, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Makes it easier to keep track of the goof (Category:Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Iluvrihanna24) Thanks again. - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 23:38, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Are you looking for people to nominate?

This may be unconventional, but User:Crisco 1492 has expressed an interest at becoming an admin on his user page. He does a lot of work with Did You Know and I think the admin bit would help him contribute to the project even more. I am not positive about his contributions to speedy deletion, but he has a huge list of contributions to AFD. He also seems to have a good knowledge of image copyright rules. Here is his edit counter page. He has a nice list of pages created as well. Perhaps you could take a longer look at the editors contributions (I haven't gone very in depth into the content of his contributions) and possibly do a nomination.
