While deleting images in the subcategories of [[:Category:Wikipedia files with unknown copyright status]], I encountered [[:File:JimWilliamsAuthor.jpg]], which has a tag saying that OTRS received a permission email that was insufficient. Is it proper to delete images with insufficient OTRS emails without first recording the OTRS ticket number? I've never encountered this situation before, so I'm sorry to have to ask what might be a simple question. [[User:Nyttend|Nyttend]] ([[User talk:Nyttend|talk]]) 13:41, 30 March 2010 (UTC) |

Other neat portal ideas for longer term
- Longer term ideas to think about from other portals:
- Events section, like: "On this day" e.g., Biography, Religion, United States; "Selected anniversaries" e.g., War; "Calendar" at Holidays. Interesting idea of "Month selected anniversaries", at Oregon.
- Model intro with some rotating images, after Portal:Oregon, Portal:Indiana, Portal:Iceland/Intro and Portal:Philosophy of science/Intro.
- Revamp DYK sections w/ free-use images, model after Portal:Criminal justice and Portal:Oregon.
- Portal palettes at User:RichardF/Palettes/Portals. Comparable color schemes can be developed from the various hue lists at User:RichardF/Palettes. Also see Portal:Box-header.
- If there are a lot of categories, then categories section to 2 columns, like in Portal:Indiana.
- Also take some time to check out style/formatting at Portal:Indiana Cirt (talk)

Dispatch
Cirt, Awadewit suggested that you might be interested in writing a Signpost Dispatch article on Featured portals (the only area of featured content we haven't covered). Sample previous articles are at {{FCDW}}. We've covered:
- Featured content overview
- Peer review
- Did you know
- Featured lists
- Good articles
- Featured sounds
- Featured topics
- Images
- TFA
- And Featured articles many times: Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-07-21/Dispatches, Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-04-07/Dispatches, Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-10-13/Dispatches
None of them start out looking like that: if an editor initially just chunks in some text, many others chip in to tweak it up to Signpost standards. For example, someone wrote this, which Karanacs, Royalbroil and I turned into this, so if you just chunk in some text as a start, others can help finish it off. Another example, I put in this outline, and Karanacs brought it up to this. Other editors have written almost complete and clean Dispatches without much need for other editing. If you're interested, please weigh in and coordinate at WT:FCDW In case you're interested, you could just begin sandboxing something at WP:FCDW/Portals and pop over to WT:FCDW to leave a note when you're ready for others to help out. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
- Will mull this over and most likely draft something up. Cirt (talk) 11:54, 18 November 2108 (UTC)
Razzies progress
- 15th Golden Raspberry Awards through 29th Golden Raspberry Awards = reformatting process done.
- Note: Going to have to go back and model these after the modifications made subsequently to 29th Golden Raspberry Awards.
- 29th Golden Raspberry Awards - so far only one expanded with sourcing research. (WP:FL)
- Razzie Award for Worst New Star = reformatting process done, next to use Talk:Razzie Award for Worst Picture as model to reformat other pages in Category:Golden Raspberry Awards by category (with subsection breaks by decade)
Deadstar Assembly
I would like to see about bringing up for debate the un-deletion of this group, as they were proven notable and valid in the past, and can only provide even more proof to support the fact upon request. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 17:43, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- Things that are in the article such as their referenced inclusion on soundtracks for both movies and video games, as well as various third party articles dedicated about the group alone should qualify them. But just in case it is not, please let me know what else can be included to ensure their re-addition.
Just an outline regarding their status:
They are listed as a national touring act in both Pollstar and Ticketmaster.
They were featured in the following BIG MEDIA - Broadcast, Film, Video Games, Radio, Satellite Radio, Online Radio
Project Gotham Racing 3
"Picture This" Movie
MTVs Punk'd episode #301
MTVs Making The Video - Goo Goo Dolls
MTVs NEXT
they've Had Significant Radio Play Internationally. I can provide the Title Codes as assigned by ASCAP
Britain Norway USA Canda
FMQB # 5 Most Added with 46 Adds (Friday Morning Quarterback - FMQB.COM)
CMJ Loud Rock # 6 Most Added with 59 Adds
"Killing Myself Again" added to AOL Radio
"Killing Myself Again" added in Video Rotation on Much Music Channel —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs)
- See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deadstar Assembly (2nd nomination). I would suggest working on a proposed draft version in a subpage of your userspace. Cirt (talk) 17:58, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not quite sure how to do that, is there any link you can point me in the direction of that would explain it to me? Also, it would seem the original debate was way off the mark with its claims on the criteria, as they successfully defended those points over a year ago as shown in the outline posted above (in fact they had to REMOVE some references as they were told they listed too many), and only have more coverage since then. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 18:02, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- You can work on it, at User:Elblots/Deadstar Assembly. Cirt (talk) 18:10, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

- I started, but would it be possible for you to copy over the old wiki page to this one so I can just work from that and add/reinstate the things that were on the article originally, as this would greatly expedite the process on both ends? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 18:45, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for merging the old article with the new one. As you can see, I have added a few more valid references to the article. If you will please let me know what else needs to be done to prove notability I will make sure it gets done immediately. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 19:10, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- Most of those sources fail WP:RS, are not actually secondary sources, and/or fail WP:NOTE. Cirt (talk) 20:57, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

- I don't see how extensive coverage specifically about the group in print magazines are not valid, especially when providing referenced links to the specific publications (even one with them on the COVER). And what of the inclusion of the band on soundtracks? (A Major video game title as referenced on its OFFICIAL web site, a motion picture that topped ratings with millions of viewers the night of its airing, MTV shows - as heard on the samples posted from their official sources). If i were to provide the ASCAP info of the groups radio play, would that assist? (I don't ever see those things posted on any other bands entry). The band have headlined their own national tours, as listed on ticketmaster and pollstar. They are also on multiple independent labels in various countries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.77.176.186 (talk) 22:04, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- I would also point out that although not all articles listed are available by direct reference, they should still fall under valid status via wikipedias own Verifiability policy as listed here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Access_to_sources#Access_to_sources . All articles are referenced in a way that anyone with access to the archive can EASILY find them, although not directly via online sites (however MOST are), but issue and page #s are listed where applicable.
Is there any update on this review? Info is being added every day that has been showing increased validity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 19:00, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
- Most of the cites used appear to not be from independent reliable secondary sources. Cirt (talk) 05:38, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- As discussed in our original deletion review, the publications listed ARE in fact viable sources, not run by or associated with the group at all in any way shape or form. Maybe not US based, but magazines such as Zillo (which incidentally has been in rotation since 1992), De-Evolution, and Orkus are in large rotation in EU and the band has been featured extensively in them, several times in some cases...as referenced by the requirements of Wikipedia. I can post scans of the articles if that would help, but I was told last time that image scans of an article do not qualify as a valid reference source. Blog sites such as Blabbermouth.net are run by a MAJOR music label (in that particular case, "Roadrunner Records"), and as linked in the article, the group have gotten coverage on there on numerous occasions. The coverage in R.A.G. magazine is also non-trivial, but some argue about the validity of it as a source (as it is sometimes considered regional depending on which moderator reviews it...I've seen it go both ways). Again, all of these articles (ALL media mentions listed in fact, are properly referenced so it can be reviewed).
- I also would like to know how the groups inclusion on 2 Major soundtracks do not qualify them? One is for a video game (Project Gotham Racing 3) that even lists the band on its official site, and the other is for a Major motion picture (Picture This) which also lists the band as a contributor of the soundtrack.
- The band does also get national radio airplay, and as stated earlier I can provide the ASCAP data if required (but again, seeing how I've seen no other band on Wikipedia require such measures...I don't see why you'd need it).
- Them being listed as a Premium member on Vampire Freaks is a status set by the site and the site alone. It can not be bought, and it can not be self made. Basically, the site agrees that the group is notable enough to be listed as premium by their standards. If you are not familiar with the site, its a Social site, similar to Myspace, geared directly for the Genre that Deadstar Assembly are associated with. Review the site yourself if you'd like, and you will find a list of bands, but only those verified by the community itself to be premium are listed as such.
- Although not a media source, there is also a long list of major equipment companies that endorse the group. (again, each one referenced)
- Their music videos are on rotation on various internet outlets such as AOL Radio, and also have thousands of views (and more than 1000 non-band submitted videos) on youtube and other hosting sites. A simple search will validate that.
- They are globally distributed via various outlets (again, a simple search will validate that), as well as on all major online music sources in the US (Amazon, FYE, iTunes). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 06:46, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- I am sorry but the majority of sources are just links to things like myspace, youtube, and even other wikipedia articles - all inappropriate and fail WP:RS. Those all need to be removed. Cirt (talk) 14:26, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

- I shall remove the Myspace and Wiki entries, but those are very little in the scope of things. Dockyard, Pure, Zillo, Project Gotham Racing 3, Rimfrost, Darlklands, Orkus etc etc etc...are all notable sources, as has been discussed in our PREVIOUS deletion review. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 16:18, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- All "offending" links have been removed par your request. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 23:49, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
Is there any progress being made in this debate? If you would review the sources, I believe you will find them all notable (as was proven in the bands first review for deletion over a year ago). Not to mention their inclusion in soundtracks on top of it all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 17:35, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Try formatting all of the citations, using citation templates listed here. That will make it easier to evaluate. Cirt (talk) 20:55, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
- Will get on this asap (most likely tomorrow). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.9.131.46 (talk) 17:47, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- Still working on it, I'm trying to make sense over how that citation tag works... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 02:35, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Ok...got a start on it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Elblots/Deadstar_Assembly#Media_coverage (if this isn't the correct way please let me know). As you can see they are valid sources (magazines, video game, movie, and TV). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 05:32, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- No. I meant format this section [1] with WP:CIT. Cirt (talk) 15:34, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- Ok..gotcha. Will update. One question I have however is that it seems that even when following the templates exactly how they are in the page you posted, it still doesn't link the article titles to their webpages (as I feel that would be helpful in proving notability). For example, the following shows up only as text where as if you look at the actual code, I have put all of the fields in according to the template. If you could fix this one so that I may go ahead and copy/paste it and apply it to the rest, that would be of great help...EXAMPLE: "Deadstar Assembly - Bizarr und intemsiv". Zillo. No. 05/2006. May 2006. pp. 12–18.
- As you see..it only posted text and no link even when I included a URL in the code. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 17:36, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- You may wish to ask for more help, at WT:CIT. Cirt (talk) 17:37, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Fixed and updated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 17:26, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- The References subsection does not have those cites formatted. I still see lots of bare links. I see inappropriate circular referencing to other Wikipedia articles. I see "citation needed" tags for wholly unsourced info. Cirt (talk) 17:33, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- I have removed all bare links as well as any links pointing to any other wikipedia entry. Let me know any other specific areas you see that aren't set up correctly, and if possible an explanation of why it isn't adequate. I thank you so much for your patience in this matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 19:19, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- Please format with WP:CIT, and please fill in as many fields as possible that you know of info for, in those cite templates. Cirt (talk) 19:30, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- all but 3 of the references are listed using WP:CIT as per your request. All available fields have been filled out as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 19:56, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- Wrong, I still see some that are just a link with a name, not enough information, and a few that are just bare links. Cirt (talk) 19:57, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- This is where I am confused. I understand the part with the link with a name (I'll work on fixing that), but the bare links, although not all point to a direct article, they point to the place where either the article is listed/mentioned or where the band itself is listed/mentioned as part of the entire publication (not all publishers wish to make their articles free for web). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 20:16, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- Who wrote the article? Title of the article? Publisher? Date of publication? Page numbers? Cirt (talk) 20:18, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- Ok. Thanks :) I had filled in the ones that I had off hand (as you see a few of them do have that info listed), but am going to contact the bands resources to fill in whatever extra data they can provide where missing. Sorry for the mess, it's a lot of info for me (a user) to learn regarding the policies of the site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 20:29, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

- Just a side note here while I wait for more details to fill into the cites: Not all articles list a writer, as can be seen from these scans: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=2081932&albumID=2858205&imageID=70670702 , http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=2081932&albumID=2858205&imageID=70670704 , http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=2081932&albumID=2858205&imageID=70670705 . I will however provide whichever info I can. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 00:43, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
As you can see, references 5-22 are fully sited (as much as possible with the information available), and I hope that is enough to begin the review for reinstatement. As for the rest, If I am unable to get the rest of the details, I will remove them as they don't meet the requirements of Wikipedia, just waiting to see if the details can be obtained or not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 02:59, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Any way to get a status update on this entry? The references have been cited to the best they can be via what information is available, and I feel that with the various publications and soundtracks the band has been on, they pass the minimum criteria for inclusion on wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 14:38, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
- You are mistaken. I am still seeing a lot of bare links and references with only a link and a name, not enough information for the cites. See my queries above about this, already. I said this before, above. I specifically named the various bits of information that is missing. -- Cirt (talk) 18:35, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
- Removed bare links. The only 3 that are still there..2 are the websites of the record labels the band are on, and the 3rd is a direct link to show proof of the bands inclusion on a soundtrack. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 04:39, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
Actually, this does not look all that bad now. -- Cirt (talk) 01:30, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Glad to hear it :) Let me know if there is any other things I need to fix. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elblots (talk • contribs) 16:18, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Article undelete request
Hello Cirt,
Page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Teechart
Coming late to the fray, apologies for missing the discussion at page review time. This is a request for re-activation of the page, I was referred to you when going through the channel at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review. I'm one of the team that authors the TeeChart library in question, so am naturally biased, please take a view in overall context.
Part of backgrounder text used in undelete request: ".. TeeChart is a non-commercial and commercial programmer's charting library in existence since 1995. Widely acclaimed and offered to the Borland Delphi community since 1995 (as profit and non-profit) and with (amongst commercial products) a free charting library product to the .NET community since 2003 (see for example http://www.steema.com/download/other_projects). TeeChart has been used in professional and academic circles for many years. A quick Google search gives 154,000 hits, more, for example, than some other similar entity types with wikipedia page entries. Other examples of this entity type would be "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dundas_Data_Visualization,_Inc." (in this case a company) and "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusioncharts" (in this case a charting library). We are unsure of the deletion criteria in the face of the existence of the aforementioned pages and the relative search-engine hitcount. Deletion comments include "I can't find significant coverage for this company". TeeChart is not a company, it is a 'much-loved' charting library. .."
More info: TeeChart has had a Wikipedia presence in Catalan since 2005 (see http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeeChart). However TeeChart is primarily english language driven having formed part of Borland's (now Embarcadero) Delphi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borland_Delphi) since 1996 in both commercial and non-commercial IDEs. It has formed part of many hundreds, maybe thousands of student projects in its time. It would be useful to be able to put a reference-backgrounder on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmbcn (talk • contribs) 12:40, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

- Please take a moment to read WP:NOTE. Does not seem to have enough secondary source coverage, that is independent sourcing. Cirt (talk) 16:30, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, draft proposal at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mmbcn —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmbcn (talk • contribs) 12:00, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
I've added some reference links to independent information sources Mmbcn (talk) 15:02, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
- I am sorry but does not look like enough. Feel free to file WP:DRV. Cirt (talk) 15:22, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi, just to be sure I've understood correctly. Do you suggest I add more references? I'm not experienced with new articles, approximately how many references do you think would be an acceptable number? With thanks. Mmbcn (talk) 15:44, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
- Yes I would suggest expanding the content with more references, and formatting all the references used, using WP:CIT. Cirt (talk) 15:48, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I've added in more references using WP:CIT formats. Mmbcn (talk) 16:38, 19 March 2010 (UTC) I've corrected an erroneous link and tidied up format on outstanding references. I don't intend any further modifications for the moment. Any feedback appreciated. Mmbcn (talk) 12:38, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
- The page has no inline citations. Please read WP:CITE, and WP:LAYOUT. -- Cirt (talk) 16:08, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I've inlined most links, the overall appearance is somewhat neater. Any other points to go for? Thanks for your time. Mmbcn (talk) 00:18, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Jokaroo
Hi, I saw you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jokeroo. Note that Jokaroo is a copy of that article and it seems reasonable that the AfD applies to this article as well. Haakon (talk) 16:53, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hello, I'm one of the founders of Jokeroo, which was previously known as JokAroo. In previous discussions on Wikipedia, I released information showing that Jokeroo has over 150,000 members which constituted as a big enough website to be listed on Wikipedia, this was over 4 years ago. websites like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albino_Blacksheep, and ebaumsworld are considerably smaller then us and have wikipedia articles. You can verify the size of the site with Comscore, Alexa, or any 3rd party analytics. Let me know your thoughts or any questions you have so I can answer.

Open Platform as a Service
I believe the admin ruled to "keep" Open Platform as a Service yet you deleted it. Am I missing something? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.102.181.145 (talk) 03:07, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
- The consensus was to delete. -- Cirt (talk) 07:14, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Image review?
Hey Cirt. I saw that you're also an administrator at Wikimedia Commons, and wondered if you could do me a favor? I have a DYK nom out there right now with a picture of Andy Samberg, but I was just told that the picture requires review at Wikimedia commons. I was told an admin could review it for me and was wondering if you could take a look sometime shortly, before the DYK runs out? Thanks! — Hunter Kahn 12:07, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Ghost Wars
I just noticed protection on Ghost is due to run out soon. I started an RfC on the talk page on what seemed to be the most contentious issue, whether Ghosts were pseudoscience. The consensus seems to be that they are not, although this is not unanimous. Is there a way to get someone neutral to close the RfC with a summary / conclusion, and only then remove the edit protection? I am not neutral, since I think the whole argument is ridiculous, and that this should just be a lighthearted article about superstitions and spooks, Halloween and haunted houses. Thanks, Aymatth2 (talk) 19:18, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
- You could post to WP:AN for a previously-uninvolved admin to close the RFC. -- Cirt (talk) 19:53, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Truce
I feel as if we may have gotten off on the wrong foot. I saw your opposition to me being a sighted editor on Wnews and I don't think you are aware of what kind of work I'm really involved in. Supporting Ash was incidental in my efforts to oppose censorship of Wikipedia. I supported Ash in restoring Carigan but also told him the article wasn't ready yet. I continued to support him through DRV because I believed the subject was notable. I know now that DRV wasn't necessary and accomplished very little. I would like to have a discussion to clear the air either on a dedicated userpage or off-wiki. Thanks! - Stillwaterising (talk) 21:12, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the gesture. I guess I was taken aback by your vociferous support for a user who was advocating restoration of unsourced and poorly sourced material on a WP:BLP, and yourself also supporting this behavior. -- Cirt (talk) 21:13, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
- I'll chalk it up to naivety of the Afd/DRV process and a sincere belief that what I was doing was right. I don't think it caused any harm, it was similar to a nuisance lawsuit done for embarrassment and to publicly air dirty laundry. I wish you had explained your closing decision when I first asked you to. You did eventually after the DRV was started and I think you came to a reasonable conclusion but did not leave any remarks previously except "the result was delete." I think this could have been avoided with better communication. I also think a standard needs to be set by closer similar to our legal system where the judge publicly explains how he came to his decision. - Stillwaterising (talk) 22:44, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Please do not call me a sockpuppet - it is untrue and therefore rude [2]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Pooktre. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pooktre (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:09, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Question
Hello
I would like to ask your opinion about the format that should be used for the localities from Romania where Hungarian has co-official status (where at least 20% of the population speaks Hungarian)
Variant 1. Romanian_Name (Hungarian: Hungarian_Name)
Variant 2. Romanian_Name (Hungarian: Hungarian_Name)
Variant 3. Romanian_Name or Hungarian_Name (Romanian: Romanian_Name; Hungarian: Hungarian_Name)
Variant 4. Romanian_Name(Romanian) or Hungarian_Name(Hungarian)
There are used different formats on different articles and I think it should exist a standard format used for all of them, in order not to create mess. Can you pls. reccomend one of them?
Thanks in advance for your answer (Umumu (talk) 22:04, 24 March 2010 (UTC))
- Just a random, drive-by comment, but I think Variant 4 offers the best format for neutral presentation.

I have not removed any sources. If you control+F (or search for the text of) "Daily News", you will see the reference still exists. It just happens to also be named "medical", along with another reference. Seriously, I know what I am doing, but this back and forth isn't even worth my time. I will leave the article alone, even though I am just trying to get it looking as best as possible.

Hi,
The first article which you protected was not due to dispute but vandal who created account solely for the purpose of adding that (incorrect name to the account). There is no justification for its entry, not a content dispute but a POV pushing of name that does not belong there. Similar fictitious Azerbaijani names have been added to other geographic articles of other Monestaries and Toponyms and town names, etc... I am not sure why you protected it on the POV/Vandalized version. I suspect both articles need to have the name removed and protected, since that person has violated 3rr's and now sockpuppets with an IP.

If you actually look at the talk page you are suggesting for me to look at, there is a person continuing blabbering about territorial integrity and ignoring any discussion as to why it is inappropriate to include a fictitious name for a monastery in the language of the country who only performed bombing runs on them 15 years ago, and now claims as "its" through irrelevant names. Similar attempts to attack other articles, most prominently Gandzasar Monastery have been reverted and protected by administrators.

Request to fix fleshlight links
Can you fix these references? - They go to a site selling fleshlights.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_Canada reference number 3 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_of_the_Americas reference number 101

- Sure - clicking on reference number 3 at the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_Canada - specifically here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_of_Canada#cite_note-cultural_influences-2 takes you to a page with text: "People who visit this site are also looking for: is fleshlight realistic, fleshlight giftcards, original lady fleshlight male masturbation, muscle fleshlight jack off, flesh light free videos, fleshlight clips masturbate, how to make your own homemade fleshlight, fleshlight sitelpk, how does fleshlight feel, fleshlight sales, my fleshlight movie, fleshjack, fleshlight ribbed review, fleshlight cheep, wiki fleshlight, gay flesh lights, cumming in fleshlight, fleshlight super ribbed sleeve, fleshlight changes, fleshlight can."

- I think that the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Articles_with_broken_or_outdated_citations "{{citations broken}}" template is what I can use - but the template doesn't seem to have a place to show which citation is outdated. "Articles with citations that are broken because the external links are defunct or outdated, belong in this category." Uncle uncle uncle 22:43, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Help
About a week ago, you blocked IP 71.60.108.14 from vandalizing Days of our Lives related articles. Now he/she is back at it, adding ridiculous unsourced wrong speculation to many, for example Adrienne Johnson Kiriakis. Your assistance is again required to put a stop to this. Thank you very much. Rm994 (talk) 15:14, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Best to post it to WP:AIV. -- Cirt (talk) 04:14, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
When I did that, they told me it was a content dispute. I disagree. It's someone adding unsourced wrong information to many articles, as well violating the biographies of living persons policy. Thanks. Rm994 (talk) 04:27, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
- In that case, try WP:ANI. -- Cirt (talk) 04:30, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
Ok, thank you :) Rm994 (talk) 16:04, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
The Marriage Ref
You're welcome. The only hard part was to figure out where to say something, there was so much complaining all over the entire discussion page. There were any number of places where I could have pretty much said the same thing I did. Sergecross73 (talk) 16:09, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, that is understandable. -- Cirt (talk) 04:14, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
Request
Hello Cirt. Can you userfy the deleted articles Dungeon Demo into User:White Shadows/Radiohead demos for me? I'm thinking about getting all of these deleted/redirected demos into one properly sourced article. Thanks!--White Shadows you're breaking up 18:50, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Reactivate article on David C. Lewis (Spiritual Teacher)
I missed the discussion on deleting the article on David C. Lewis (Spiritual Teacher). I am requesting that this article be reactivated so I can improve its content and bring it up to standard regarding the requirements for notability. David C. Lewis has many accomplishments that were not sourced or even mentioned. I can rectify this shortcoming. --Ketuwatcher (talk) 13:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- I would suggest you work on a draft proposed version to argue for WP:NOTE, within a subpage of your userspace. -- Cirt (talk) 16:47, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
OK. Where can I find the text of the David C. Lewis article that was deleted? --Ketuwatcher (talk) 18:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
Done, now at User:Ketuwatcher/David C. Lewis (Spiritual Teacher). -- Cirt (talk) 18:37, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
Self-replicating machines
Thanks for putting a semi-protect on Self-replicating machine - that's a good call because the article keeps getting changed by socks of banned User:Fraberj. But were you aware that you protected it just a couple of minutes after one of those IP's reverted it back to the "bad" version of the content?
I know it's only semi-protected, so I could fix this myself - but I didn't want to do that if you had deliberately intended to choose that version.
I would recommend rolling back to the last version by Daedalus969.
Thanks for looking into this sorry mess. SteveBaker (talk) 13:32, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism
Hello, I was wandering if you could help me This user has gone through all of Mariah Carey's articles and inflating all the sales to unrealistic levels, it's annoying having to go through and deflate them after, I've left around 10 warnings, can you issue a block please, thanks. Jayy008 (talk) 16:28, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- Please, use WP:AIV for this. -- Cirt (talk) 16:48, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tip! can you tell me why it's "red" when it's reported and says (page does not exsist) is that something I've done? Because all of them are the same Jayy008 (talk) 16:59, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

The Kate Kennedy Club
Dear Cirt, I write with reference to your recent deletion of the article on The Kate Kennedy Club. This is an article that I would greatly like to see restored in the light of the significance of The Kate Kennedy Club and its activities. The Kate Kennedy Club is renowned as one of the most exclusive gentlemen's clubs in the world, and is referenced in several published books, many other Wikipedia articles, and many articles that have featured in national press. One only has to type the club's name into Google to see its significance in Scotland as a steward of one of the UK's greatest processions, its worldwide reputation as a gentlemen's club, and it's reputation as one of the most active student club's in St Andrews. The Kate Kennedy Club exists to preserve the Kate Kennedy Procession which dates back to the 15th century. This Procession remains a key feature of the calendar of both the town and University of St Andrews as a result of the Kate Kennedy Club. Furthermore, the club remains committed to its three aims, and is one of the most active clubs at the University of St Andrews. This is highlighted by the many events that the club organises for the benefit of the St Andrews student population including the two biggest balls in the country. Furthermore, the club is renowned as for its charitable works, giving away approximately £15,000 to charity every year, Finally, The Kate Kennedy Club is renowned as one of the most exclusive gentlemen's clubs in the world (according to wikipedia, among other sources!). Numerous other gentlemen's clubs and societies have articles devoted to them on Wikipedia - eg. the Pitt Club, The 16' Club, the The Strafford Club etc. I see this as a positive thing in the light of the interest they attract, but so many of these club's have considerably less history and are also considerably less active than The Kate Kennedy Club. All of this goes to show that The Kate Kennedy club is more than significant enough and attracts enough interest to merit its restoration on Wikipedia. Many more secondary sources can be added to the article to add to its credibility and further verify it, and I do hope that this can be done after its restoration. I look forward to discussing this issue with you further, and seeing the articles restoration soon. Sincerely. Rdg22 (talk) 23:56, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi,
I'm not sure how to cite the omission but it's definitely not in the UK boxset. Perhaps you could buy a copy and check for yourself? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Riksweeney (talk • contribs) 07:10, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
OTRS-related help
While deleting images in the subcategories of Category:Wikipedia files with unknown copyright status, I encountered File:JimWilliamsAuthor.jpg, which has a tag saying that OTRS received a permission email that was insufficient. Is it proper to delete images with insufficient OTRS emails without first recording the OTRS ticket number? I've never encountered this situation before, so I'm sorry to have to ask what might be a simple question. Nyttend (talk) 13:41, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
