==WikiProject Food and Drink deletions==
I did not know your intention, if that was the intention there is a spot on the projects main page for listing articles for deletion. I am of the opinion however that it is better to list the articles under AfD as the issue gets dealt with in an expedited manner. Otherwise the tags may never get noticed as there are so many of them, I constantly see articles listed on our project that get ignored. That said, if you'd rather use WP:PROD, I think it is better to put the articles on the main page under the section already created for it as putting it on the bottom of the sorting page as it can get lost under all of the AfDs on top of the page.--[[User:Tanner-Christopher|Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC]] 02:22, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

This is Gary Moody of Greater Michigan Realty. I am a newbie to Wiki. I templated my real estate company website after other real estate websites. I worked with an admin at Wiki to make sure that all was good. Now I am getting these comments. Please help me understand. Thank you, Gary —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moodsgmr (talkcontribs) 16:33, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

hi

Cookie! Oztion

Have a few cookies on me. You helped me rescue Oztion from deletion quite a while back by watching that article's history and reverting an IP user's reference deletions. I just went back to that article today to see how it was going, and did a bit of pruning myself, and I realized how much I appreciated your help back then as a newbie. Thanks!

Nice work ([1]). --Dweller 10:46, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you had put a notability tag on Diamond Management & Technology Partners. I have updated the discussion page to show that the company is notable. Once you get a chance to look at it, could you please remove the tag. Also, I am not sure if you can do this, but would it be possible to move this article to "Diamond Management & Technology Consultants"? I got the name wrong when I first put it together. Thanks! PadreNuestro 23:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the merger and notability tags from this article, as it placed in the top 10 (not 24th, as you've suggested to the anon who queried it) in the largest competitive music festival in the world. Precedent, furthermore, has been that any song performed onstage at ESC is eminently notable, due to the fact that it represented a country in an international competition. You're welcome to discuss this further on my Talk page if you want. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 07:54, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Belated agreement

re: Your ole post in Template_talk:R_to_section

My gut feeling is that there is little substantive difference between Template:R from subtopic and Template:R to section. What is unfortunate is the merger of concepts underlying Template:R from subtopic and Template:R with possibilities as it is a truism that almost all tolerated titles and named concepts have the possibility of becoming an article though there might be a very small probability of this taking place. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 02:07, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Case of the Constant Suicides

1930s book never had ISBNs this is either a modern edition or a retrospecitively added (and not historically significant) addition. but thanks anyway! :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 12:54, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandal Wermania

Hi, Ceyockey.
That tagging was done by user that purposely registered himself to vandalize articles related to Croatian victims of war crimes done by Serbs.
I've reported that user to admins.
Case of tagging is solved; these articles are backed up with ICTY materials (that that vandal, user Wermania, has ignored). Kubura 09:20, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm restoring the sockpuppet notice for Hxseeker. Next time I'd appreciate some sort of comment somewhere before or at least after such a notice is removed. Thanks. --Ronz 16:19, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He's been blocked. I was just surprised that his user page, where I had placed the sockpuppet warning, was deleted with no indication why nor any other indication (on his talk page for instance) that Hxseeker was being investigated for sockpuppetry. Sorry that I came across a bit abrupt and harsh. --Ronz 18:21, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy v. Prod

For astute understanding of when to use prod and when to use speedy:

Mangaria

I don't understand your change from speedy to PROD. Being a hoax is certainly not a criterion for speedy deletion, but I didn't nominate for speedy deletion because it's a hoax, I nominated it for speedy deletion because it's non-notable. If the hoax non-criterion trumps the specific CSD criteria, wouldn't it be true that any article that meets the other criteria could exempt itself from the reach of speedy deletion merely by adding a fake source? PubliusFL 18:51, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, the criterion I nominated under was A7. But I guess the claim about the Lonely Planet guide, although false, could plausibly be construed as an assertion of notability. PubliusFL 18:57, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Hills Have Eyes

I don't oppose the deletion. Do what you must. :) --Victor (talk) 05:59, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE: AFD note

Thanks for your advice on the AFD process. It's really hard to find such processes sometimes. --Lendorien 13:57, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD Closure

I strongly disagree with the closure of this AfD. While I am, obviously, not exactly an impartial observer, it seems to me that there is clear consensus against this article. Most participants made the perfectly cogent, policy-based argument that the article is just a trivial list, which is not appropriate for Wikipedia (WP:FIVE). --Eyrian 17:40, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Morse code in popular culture. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. --Eyrian 17:54, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Removal of speedy delete tag for Inga Liljeström

Hi, I am not sure why you removed the SD tag on article Inga Liljeström and converted it into a redirect to Inga Liljestrom; as you can see from the lead of the latter article, Inga Liljeström is the correct name (see also the singer's website and the album covers) — as such, the redirect should go the other way round, which is exactly why I tagged the article {{db-move}} in the first place. What did I miss ? Schutz 07:48, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. It's almost in the procees.Go ahead :).Thank you--NAHID 17:51, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Xhet

May I ask why you suggested that Xhet be copied to Wicktionary? The word is clearly fake, not only does Google come up with nothing (nothing english at any rate), but according to the article, the word was created this very day. -WarthogDemon 01:41, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

After more consideration, this redirect is fine. At first this seemed like just a mix up of all the words, but then I relized it is a commonly used term, although not correct. But a redirect to the correct title would be fine. If you want to remove the complete AfD on the article, that's fine with me. Sorry for the confusion. --Pilotboi / talk / contribs 03:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Amzeglouf

Are you calling me a liar? The Internet has almost no coverage of rural towns and villages in Africa ask anybody so its not surprising google doesn't pick it up. Africa is so poor in parts that putting their village on a website is the last thing on their minds. I've just checked the Phillips World Atlas again and it lies approximately 40 km north of Zaouiet Reggane in central Algeria. Swearing the honest truth. but if there is no info as yet best to mention it in the Zaouiet Reggane as being nearby rather than a seperate article ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 12:50, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its amazing how the Internet cannot pick up tone of voice!!!. Spouting bile? Hey aside from the first few words this was friendly. Why should I be worked up about a one line stub? I am agreeing with you about it - its just the "no evidence there is such a place" (whilst partly true on the Internet) makes me look like a prankster. I'd suggest a redirect to Zaouiet Reggane. All the best ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 13:00, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for notifying me anyway. Its a shame that there is very little information on Africa. I have added prod templates many times to entire province articles which covers thousands of sq kilometres in Africa yet only have a two line stub. Then you get a tiny shopping mall in America with a full length article!!! Even for the African capital cities there is not really much online information to go on. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 13:04, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm. The only thing is whilst the detailed map shows up many of these settlements there is quite truthfully zilch info to go on. Should wikipedia be a reference point to say where something is or should it provide information about that place? In my view it should do both and provide at least some basic facts. This is where the fundamental problem lies that wikipedia despite its global reach will inevitably be biased because of the uneven distribution of information. If you see anymore geo stubs with no google hits -I'd strongly suggest a merging into List of towns and villages in ... Province or Algeria etc... ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 13:12, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again I guess its what wikipedia means to people. There are those who think it should collect any given topic under the sun and those who believe much of it should be filtered out like a formal traditional encyclopedia. I created those stubs over a year ago I think - i haven't done much work on municipalities for a very long time. My work on wikipedia is now chiefly involved with Films and actors, Tibet and Cambodia with the odd artist/writer article rather than geo stubbing. Ah never mind -you can't say I didn't try. In reality many of these villages in the desert are not exactly of global significance anyway are they!!! but I was trying to cover land more evenly. Regards and keep up the good wikiing. I appreciate your're efforts ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 13:24, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: PROD cycling club

No problem with deletion for that article. I had no memory of seeing it before until looking at the article history :-) Nyttend 22:17, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for this error, I asked people in IRC to adding CAT to this template, but noone answer me, So I add these CATs then asked them to see it, but no one answer me :), Sorry for this.--OsamaK 18:24, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CSD R1

This discussion seems stalled, or maybe it is dying a natural death. As you contributed to it, I wonder if you would have any more to add? Carcharoth 08:40, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SmackBot and addition of Template:Rescue

Rich, I was surprised to see this edit of Square foot gardening where, among expected actions, SmackBot also unexpectedly added Template:Rescue. I don't notice this as one of Smacky's functions, but if it now is capable of adding this template, I'm curious about the rules that are used to determine when to add. Thanks for the clarification. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:02, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No not added, just moved cats and stubs interwikis to end. Rich Farmbrough, 14:16 9 August 2007 (GMT).

Bele Chere

Fine, that's fair, I restored it for you. I still think it's blatant advertising (CSD G11) though, so I'll speedy it if you don't improve it within a reasonable amount of time. Sound reasonable? Nihiltres(t.l) 16:19, 11 August 2007 (UTC) (cross-posted)[reply]

Thank you for restoring the article. This (permalink) is the version after my revisions. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 18:35, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
By way of explanation - I realize that the typical path for stalling a PROD is to remove the PROD template and the typical path for a speedy delete is a holdon-template. I added a holdon to the PROD, and should have explained this, because I felt there was the possibility that the article could be preserved in some fashion, but I did not know at that time what form the final product after some minor work would be. If I had not found sufficient material to support retention in some form, I would have deleted the thing myself thereafter. I am a bit surprised at the form it is in now, half of it devoted to the impact of the festival on business in Asheville and the why behind the impact. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 18:42, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good now, nice cleanup job. Sorry for being a pain earlier, my misunderstanding must have been dreadful for you. Nihiltres(t.l) 22:09, 11 August 2007 (UTC) (cross-posted)[reply]
Dreadful? No, not nearly so. Don't hesitate to delete when you encounter something you think should be - or to contest deletion if the tables are reversed. This was a simple case where my coming very late the article and not providing ample explanation combined with your looking one way and not both when crossing the street ... which everyone does a lot of the time. No problems - I'm just glad that my gut feeling was right in the end. There'd be plenty of egg on my face if it turned out I couldn't find anything out there to build the article on.

WP:P* tasks and deletions

I noticed you added a deletion section to Wikipedia:WikiProject Pornography/Opentasks/Detailed task listing. There is a separate page for that, Wikipedia:WikiProject Pornography/Deletion, also accessible as WP:P*/D. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:53, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD: Human rights groups and the Middle East

I am having trouble nominating this for deletion a second time. The article appears to be dead (if it ever was living).. no one has edited it in months. All of the material appears in the parent articles, so the entire article appears to be redundant. Thanks for your help in the matter. --68.72.37.26 04:35, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Ceyockey. Say, it's very nice of you to post notes about PRODs on the math talk page. But it's probably not necessary. This automated page already exists, and picks up the PROD tags on math pages every time Jitse's bot runs.

WikiProject Pharmacology is currently organizing a new Collaboration of the Week program, designed to bring drug and medication related articles up to featured status. We're currently soliciting nominations and/or voting on nominations for the first WP:RxCOTW, to begin on September 5, 2007. Please stop by the Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week page to participate! Thanks! Dr. Cash 17:47, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aspirin has been selected as this week's Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week! Please help us bring this article up to featured standards during the week. The goal is to nominate this at WP:FAC on September 10, 2007.

Also, please visitWP:RxCOTW to support other articles for the next COTW. Articles that have been nominated thus far include Doxorubicin, Paracetamol (in the lead with 4 support votes so far), Muscle relaxant, Ethanol, and Bufotenin.

In other news:

  • The Wikipedia:WikiProject Pharmacology main page has been updated and overhauled, to make it easier to find things, as well as to highlight other goals and announcements for the project.
  • Fvasconcellos notes that discussion is ongoing regarding the current wording of MEDMOS on including dosage information in drug articles. All input is welcome.

Fair use rationale for Image:Cover_Annals_of_Human_Genetics_2005.jpg (resolved)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Cover_Annals_of_Human_Genetics_2005.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ~ Wikihermit 01:26, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of Hindko language writers and experts

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article List of Hindko language writers and experts, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. --Geniac 12:14, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I prodded the article--but I didnt send you this notice--a bot did, merely because you are the person who split it off from the main article. I don't think you had any other involvement. But since it did, I would be grateful for your opinion on it. DGG (talk) 20:11, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a brief update in some of the recent developments of WikiProject Pharmacology!

  • Aspirin has just completed its two week run as the first Collaboration of the Week! Many thanks to those editors that contributed; the article got a lot of good work accomplished, and in particular, much work was done in fixing up the history section. It's still not quite "done" yet (is a wikipedia article really ever done?), but after two weeks I think it's more important to push onwards with the development of the new collaboration of the week program. I will be fixing up Aspirin in the next few days and possibly nominating it for either GA or FA status.
  • Please remember that Wikipedia is not a forum for discussing or dispensing medical advice amongst users. Specifically, talk pages of articles should only be used to discuss improving the actual article in question. To help alleviate this situation, the template {{talkheader}} may be added to the top of talk pages, reminding users of the purpose of such pages. Additionally, unsigned comments and comments by anonymous users that are inappropriate may be removed from talk pages without being considered vandalism.

You are receiving this message because you are listed as one of the participants of WikiProject Pharmacology.
