Welcome to my talk page!

Remember, be polite, and please enjoy yourselves!

I have spent the last few months in and out of hospital, so I have been rather neglectful of my Wikipedian duties. However, if you still have a message for me after my prolonged gap, please let me know! I will be taking things rather slowly at first, so if I don't get back to you here, try my alternative account. If I still don't get back to you, try another administrator who will be more than happy to help!

Enjoy and remember to keep smiling!

Page deletion

[1] You deleted this page with an edit summary "to make room for an uncontroversial page move". The allegedly "uncontroversial" page move was not advertised on the talk page of the article. Please explain how you concluded that such page move was "uncontroversial"? Gimmetoo (talk) 00:53, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! You've got me, I didn't check to see if it was mentioned on the talk page, so for that you have my apologies. However, before I would be inclined to restore the page, I would mention that this is part of a wider issue of Vietanese articles being moved to reflect more common usage of the dialect. This was decided here. I know that's not good etiquette on the part of the person requesting the move, but would you agree that the deletion should stand?

I don't agree with the page move(s), since the proposed moves were discussed at one page and not advertised at most of the pages that have been moved. Gimmetoo (talk) 01:23, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Given that the page moves were part of a discussion and that the decision to move was made with community consensus, I would ask that you please speak to the administrator who closed the discussion. If they agree that the deletion should not stand, I will happily restore the page (or they can, I don't mind). Hope that's ok with you. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 14:56, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Since the "discussion" was not advertised at the affected pages, it did not involve the "community". Do you not see that? Gimmetoo (talk) 16:29, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No, I suppose I don't. Like I said, I would ask that you speak to the closing administrator about it first. I would rather they answered that question than I. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 16:34, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DYK Review

Hi, you recently reviewed the proposed DYK for Monarch Contemporary Art Center and Sculpture Park, and you weren't sure about the hook. I've created a new version, so if you are interested in taking a look at it, you are more than welcome to! Thanks! Rising*From*Ashes (talk) 06:01, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DYK on Dougie dance

FYI, pls see Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Friday.2C July 29.2C spot the issues. SandyGeorgia (Talk)

I find you very abrasive. Which is not to say that that's not a screw-up, or that you're not assuming good faith, I just am never sure how to respond...
Anyway, I'm new at the admin DYK bit and I think I can take your abrasiveness as an education in itself. I was under the impression that in the context it wasn't trivia and that as it is backed up by reliable sources it is absolutely fine (and TIME magazine is usually reliable). Evidently not. *buttons lip, goes away to try again another day* PanydThe muffin is not subtle 20:50, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
