mall policy discussion

We could start working on a policy proposal on in my sandbox here. We can both hack at it, find a consensus between us (as editors on the oposite sides of the fence), and then propose it via a centralized discussion. Sound good? youngamerican (talk) 15:21, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

I posted 3 different proposals on my sandbox just now. Feel free to tweak them, change them, or make some new ones. We can then sort them out and propose the best ones (one that is inclusionist, one that is deltionist, and one in between) and let the community sort 'em out fromt here. youngamerican (talk) 19:03, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Re: Category:Melbourne rail stubs

Stub type is created; the stub tempate is at {{Melbourne-rail-stub}}, which will automatically add articles to Category:Melbourne rail stubs. Slambo (Speak) 16:55, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

malls

I was reading up on the topic, and it turns out we would be creating a notability criteria, not a policy. youngamerican (talk) 19:41, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Re: Moni Aizik

Todah rabah for your help on this article. I'm glad it was salvagable too. Ckessler

Yeah, well my speaking is better than my spelling. :) Ckessler 19:57, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Re: 128.146.94.230

I sent a message to Ohio State this morning concerning his edits to PvP, Fark.com, and Melissa Lafsky and asked them to look into the situation. There's no guarantee they'll respond or even be able to find out who he is, but I gave them all the data we have. I considered applying a block to the entire 128.146.94.x range, but that invariably results in collateral damage. What I will do is block on sight any address in that range that vandalizes, and the lengths of the blocks will increase. The .230 address is now serving out a 48 hour block. –Abe Dashiell ^(t/c) 16:41, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

• Those edits appear to be coming from somewhere in the Ohio State University School of Medicine. The .230 address, for example, resolves to dhcp-128-146-94-230.med.ohio-state.edu. It may be a computer lab or wireless network, which could make tracking down the person responsible difficult. It depends on how well Ohio State's IT department tracks their network, and also how responsive they are to complaints from outside users. As to the whys and wherefores, who knows. Don't try to understand 'em, just rope, throw, and brand 'em. –Abe Dashiell ^(t/c) 16:59, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

• I think that may be his home address. I gave him three days off this time. –Abe Dashiell ^(t/c) 02:30, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

mall notability minimums...

Good question. I will check up on some malls that I feel meet the bare minimum of notability and see what attributes they possess. youngamerican (talk) 18:07, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the message. I don't usually participate in those types of discussions (for many reasons, not the least of which is I don't believe in the concept of "notability") but I'll take a look at what you are working on. -- JJay 20:19, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Urals Federal District geography stubs

Hello. I've noticed that you created Category:Urals Federal District geography stubs. Actually, this category intentionally wasn't created before, see Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board#New stub templates and Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals#Russian geography. You should probably pay more attention to WP:WSS/P where we decided not to create it for now.

Actually, this is not to discourage you from being bold, but you should be a bit more careful with some things. Best wishes, Conscious 20:41, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi!

Thanks for the pointer, but I felt that my knowledge of rap/hip-hop wasn't good enough for me to make the call on my own. If you'd take a look at my contributions you'd see that I've placed more than my fair share of prods. I usally only place prods when i'm 99.9 % sure it deletable, and with Foglerapz I was only 99.8% sure :) Eivind^t@c 14:44, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Rocco DeLuca

On his website, http://www.roccodeluca.com/, it says that his album went into stores the date I said at the wikipedia page. 72.226.194.46 03:55, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

• Also, I didn't make the page, I just edited it to make it a little more informative. 72.226.194.46 03:56, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oops, I typed the date wrong 72.226.194.46 03:57, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

CatScan

To plagiarise my message to Valentinian shamelessly:

This little beaut here. It has some significant limitations, and I'm working on something a little more general (only off-line for the time being), but it's pretty handy nonetheless.

SIPs

I reverted your changes because the whole system of SIPs requires multiple texts. For example, if the only text was Macbeth, then every single word would be highlighted as being "fairly unique". If it was Macbeth and Harry Potter, then words such as witch and magic would no longer be SIPs, but words such as muggle and wizard would be. The system relies on more than one text. Thanks for your concern,--Keycard ^(talk) 07:21, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, maybe the above isn't actually clear enough. Although you listed the SIPs for the Dickens book, it doesn't explain how those words are arrived upon. Only when you take into account that they appear in very few other books does it make any sense. Thanks yet again--Keycard ^(talk) 07:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

I apologise if I removed anything non-example-related. If you wish to substitute the sample texts, that's good. However, there need to be at least three in practice. Thanks--Keycard ^(talk) 15:52, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Susan L. Graham

In general, you are correct. But look at the University. UC Berkley is renowned for its computer science. Just by becoming professor at there should qualify you for it. I think dispute came up a little while before on some AfD (can't remember the specific one), and in that case, it was some professor of Princeton or some other Ivy League uni.

In any case, http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~graham/biography.html, linked to from her home page, suggests plenty of notability. The article requires expansion, not deletion. enochlau (talk) 15:30, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
