== deletion for author Anushka Wirasinha ==

I noticed that you may be the editor who initiated a delete for author Anushka Wirasinha based an an argument of "vanity". Please note that she has stated her qualification as "CSS Harvard" and has not called it a degree so this is an untrue statement/edit. Also wikipedia states:
"Avoid using the word "vanity" or similar judgmental terms—this is accusatory and discouraging. It is not helpful, nor reason to delete an article."

We feel that the statement was created through malice and is not credible. It is completely untrue and unfairly discredits the author. We urge wikipedia editors to please look into the content and its credibility so that innocent persons are not hurt by mere malice posted by those who wish to just be nasty.

The Wikipedia Signpost: 26 April 2010

A tag has been placed on File:Miranda scarp.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. MBisanz talk 02:16, 20 June 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Tom Cruise ref.

Re [1]

I'm curious as to why you removed a reference as a 404 reference when it contained a link to the internet archive of the same article. Wildhartlivie (talk) 12:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I wouldn't characterize Parade as a tabloid, but I would be amenable to having both cites. I think that covers what happens if the Parade site removes it and also bolster support for the comments. Wildhartlivie (talk) 13:06, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
