See alsos becoming vandalism

Your periodic adding of mostly irrelevant links to articles such as total depravity and presuppositional apologetics (e.g., these) needs to stop. Its repetitive nature is becoming more and more like vandalism. If you have specific concerns for some of the links, please discuss them on the talk page for the article in question. --Flex (talk/contribs) 11:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

I came across your recent edit to the article and have reverted it. I feel that the statement regarding his chronic illness, etc. requires reliable and verifiable sources.

Having reviewed your contributions and concerns raised by other editors I've blocked your account for 24hrs. I would advise you to be especially careful to make useful, constructive and appropriate edits after the block expires. Thanks, Deiz talk 11:07, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Deiz, I try my best not to disrupt articles only improve them and feel that for 99% of the time I havent disrupted. I accept your decision since you are a Wikipedia official. Portillo 02:20, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair enough. The talk page edit noted above was certainly not constructive. Of course, not all editors are Shakespeare, Stephen Hawking or Mother Theresa, but in future, before you press save, ask yourself: is this edit truly going to improve the encyclopedia?

Hi, While browsing through recent changes I came across an edit that you have made to the Son of God article.

Real Madrid criticism section

Hi, I was wondering why you removed the criticism section relating to Real Madrid's comments about their desire to sign Cristiano Ronaldo?

It seemed highly notable, related to not only Real Madrid, but the current European and English champions, Manchester United.

Normally, if one of my edits is removed, it is easy to understand why, by reading the edit summaries, however you marked your edit that removed the information as a minor edit (removal of an entire section is hardly minor) and left no information in the summary.

Anyway, just a polite suggestion, perhaps if you want to removed correctly cited and notable information, it would be nice if you left an edit summary, or even better discussed it with the other involved editors beforehand.

I'm sure your edit was done with the best of intentions, it is just a little hard to understand your motives, without discussion/summary information.

see ya

Sennen goroshi (talk) 14:31, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your message. I think you should put that under Ramon Calderon's article. Portillo (talk) 01:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Good idea, however some of the comments were made by Bernd Schuster, and Manchester United have threatened to take action against Real Madrid, but against an individual.

Hi, I've reverted your edit to bee bread because the reference you provided fails to meet our criteria for reliable sources.

New World Order conspiracy theory

I reversed your edits in the Christian theories centering on the End time section in the New World Order (conspiracy theory) article since you have justified why your wording is more accurate. As for your question about whether we should create a criticsm section, you seem not have noticed that the article currently has one. However, according to the Wikipedia:Criticism sections page:

“ Criticism sections can be found in many Wikipedia articles. While sometimes appropriate, this structure is not optimal, as relegating all criticisms to one section usually results in an unbalanced presentation. When present, such sections should be considered a temporary solution until the article is restructured to integrate criticism into each relevant section. It may then be desirable to have a "General criticisms" section near the end of the article, for those points which did not neatly fit anywhere else. ”

--Loremaster (talk) 00:57, 31 January 2009 (UTC)'

I just felt that you were adding a criticism section only because it was a christian theory. I mean i really dont care what secular humanists think about christian apocolyptic theories. I originally wrote the first paragraph, so i felt like international demonic order sounded better and more accurate then theocratic whatever. I did however like the emperial cult thing. Portillo (talk) 02:58, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm trying to add criticism to all theories as quickly as I find them. The criticism of the Christian "End Time" theory mostly comes from Preterism rather than secular humanism. As for your expression "international demonic order", I've decided to replace it with "satanic world theocracy". Lastly, I removed the mention of David Allen Rivera's Final Warning: The History of the New World Order because of its lack of notability. However, we can cite it as a source for the first paragraph in the "End Time" theory section. --Loremaster (talk) 16:38, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

3RR and Edit Warring

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bodybuilding. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. --Quartet 00:16, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

First sentence of MJ article

I saw your suggestions in the talk page of the article and in Ian's talk page. I like your idea very much. Would you be fine with the following version: "MJJ, dubbed the King of Pop, was an American musician and entertainer, widely regarded as one of the most commercially successful recording artists of all time"? As for citations, they are given in the last section, Legacy and influence, where he is cited as the greatest selling male solo act ever. We don't have to clutter the lead with citations so I think that should be good enough. Let me know what you think. Thank you.UberCryxic (talk) 18:42, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Yeah im sure i can live with that. The other option is to simply leave it as it is "Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009), dubbed the "King of Pop", was an American recording artist and entertainer." Portillo (talk) 23:31, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Chickens as pets

Just because it was (uncited) in the main article doesn't mean it's appropriate. The subject of "chickens as pets" isn't an encyclopedic article detailing how people keep pet chickens, but about the phenomenon of pet chickens, i.e. where and why chickens became pets. Any how to content describing how pet chickens are kept is almost entirely too general. The line between pet chickens and regular poultry keeping isn't clearly defined by the manner of keeping them, only in the attitude people have toward their chickens. Steven Walling 06:05, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

So how exactly do you plan to expand the article? I believe that the article is about pet chickens such as in an urban environment, not a farm or hatchery. I understand there may be a few how-to sentences, but theres really nothing wrong with writing what pet chickens eat or the fact that chickens need to have dust baths in order to keep parasites in check. Portillo (talk) 08:41, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

My point is that all chickens take dust baths and have the same dietary requirements. The content I removed is by-and-large not unique to keeping pet chickens. Steven Walling 20:14, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Well its not mentioned anywhere else, so maybe it should be mentioned here. Plus, pet chickens are kept differently to hatcheries. Hatcheries have cages with only a tiny bit of food and water for each chicken, no grass, no dustbaths, etc. Portillo (talk) 21:35, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

General chicken information should go in the main chicken article. Also, your comment about hatcheries is totally incorrect. Not all farms and hatcheries are the same, and some are better or worse than others. Steven Walling 21:18, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

Well you better get busy, because i checked the chicken article, and dont see anything about what chickens eat or how they are maintained when kept as pets. Portillo (talk) 09:32, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of StrongLifts

A tag has been placed on StrongLifts, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Canvassing

Hello. It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on others' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influence Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/StrongLifts. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. --Yankees76 (talk) 15:05, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi Portillo, I see that you have an "administrator willing to make difficult blocks" userbox. However, I can find no evidence that you are actually an administrator.[4] Would you please remove that userbox from your page - having it when you are not a sysop is rather deceptive. If I am somehow in error, and you really are an administrator, would you please direct me to the evidence thereof? Thank you, LadyofShalott 21:17, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Kai Greene

You just reverted my addition to the entry on Kai Greene, arguing that a photo that does not show his face is not acceptable. May I ask you to cite a relevant Wikipedia policy on that matter? I added the photo to illustrate the fact that Greene is interested in showing his body in artistic contexts, in addition to appearing in bodybuilding contests. It seems to me that the photo is very appropriate in that regard. To address your concern, however, I will exchange the photo for another one that does show his face. Please let me know if you have any problems with that. (By the way, I only deleted your photo because it duplicates the one at the top of the article. I thought it would be more informative to add something different.) Thanks! GBataille (talk) 23:46, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Groove metal

Hello Portilo. I'm just curious as to what is your opinion on the notability of the groove metal entry? There aren't many reliable sources discussing this term. RG (talk) 03:23, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Not sure about sources. But i consider groove metal to be post-thrash/90's metal. I do think its notable. Portillo (talk) 03:28, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

It's original research to say that these two terms are the same thing and neither of these term are really notable. If you think the topic's notable, then please provide some reliable sources to prove me wrong. RG (talk) 02:49, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

I dont really care if the article is deleted or not. I already voted for a keep. My only concern is what will groove metal bands be classified as? Portillo (talk) 04:08, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

How many bands can you actually find reliably sourced with the term? RG (talk) 10:49, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Pantera and Machine Head. Portillo (talk) 11:03, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

Nu metal

The revision you reverted to has a multitude of poorly-sourced and unsourced content, original research, and overt references to the band Korn, despite the fact that the article is not about that band, and changes the lead so that it appears as a genre, not as an umbrella term (which is cited). The current revision is based on actual sourced content. (Sugar Bear (talk) 01:07, 11 May 2010 (UTC))

I take offense to your edit summary on the groove metal article. "what a stupid thing to say", that's rude. Please stay calm and be pleasant with other editors.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:CesareBonventre1.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:CesareBonventre1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Puer aeternus

Hi, Portillo. I'm not sure why you reverted me here. One of the cited sources you restored is a dead link, and neither of the remaining two alleges that Michael Jackson constituted an example of so-called "Peter Pan syndrome": the Time piece does even mention "Peter Pan syndrome" and the ABC piece only mentions the so-called syndrome in connection with the characteristics of pedophiles; Jackson is not the subject of this passage. As none of the sources asserts that Jackson was an example of so-called "Peter Pan syndrome", the passage fails WP:V and I've removed it again. Cheers. -- Rrburke (talk) 01:24, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Fourth Ward, New York

A tag has been placed on Fourth Ward, New York requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.

This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  Forty two  11:09, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

At 15911 edits, you are in a better position than I am in knowing that one should not de-PROD articles created by oneself.--  Forty two  11:20, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Alphonse D'Arco. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 02:07, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Wedbush Securities

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on Wedbush Securities requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. GoingBatty (talk) 04:04, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of MAX'S

The article MAX'S has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable company or product.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Kudpung (talk) 08:56, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Bridal Plasty

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Bridal Plasty. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Bridalplasty. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Bridalplasty - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Brianhe (talk) 04:11, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Jerrad Tyson

The article Jerrad Tyson has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Kudpung (talk) 10:50, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

I have removed this content from the article again. Instead of stating these opinions as fact, you should use attribution -- write who has described him as a "midfield destroyer" and "one of the best holding midfielders in world football". Barret (talk) 11:24, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Why?

Why did you undo my revision on the Madame Blavatsky post?

On that page, what you guys are doing is making all that information sound as if it's totally 100% fact when it's not. Those are just claims. That's all they will ever be. You're also pushing off that information unto the people trying to make them buy into the subject of theology. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.181.13.66 (talk) 03:54, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

No, it's not. Madame Blavatsky claims all that stuff. But none of it can proven. It's not 100% fact. If so, prove to me what she said is true. PROVE IT! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.181.13.66 (talk) 04:53, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Apologies

Hi there PORTILLO, VASCO from Portugal here,

sorry for my edit summary at Idriss Carlos Kameni, a very poor choice of words from me, even though you must admit the first time you added that stuff about racism it was a bit odd (a loose sentence, no ref).

Now, you have reinstated it with a source, i will obviously not remove it, just improved the display of the sentence overall. That said, please accept my sincere apologies, keep up the good work. - --Vasco Amaral (talk) 04:10, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:CesareBonventre1.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:CesareBonventre1.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Gemini Lounge

Hey, just wanted to make note of why I blanked the page so as not to give the impression that I was intentionally vandalizing. The Gemini Lounge was a Mafia hangout used by the DeMeo crew and is linked that way in a number of articles (e.g., Richard Kuklinski). I thought it inappropriate that there should be a link to an unrelated place in Oregon which apparently doesn't even go by the same name. Better then to make an empty page until a new article for the Gemini Lounge (i.e. the mob hangout) has been created. But if you think differently that's totally cool. :-) Shoplifter (talk) 10:20, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bible series

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Bible series, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Drmies (talk) 03:18, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at Bible series

Hi Portillo, you recently removed a deletion tag from Bible series. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 03:28, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

Edit summaries.

Please use edit summaries, without them it is nearly impossible to judge the spirit in which you are making changes. For example, your change to Paul the Apostle. How did the article benefit from your revision, and what purpose did you serve changing "Fourteen" to "14"?

Regarding your voting and the change of stance

Dear Portillo!

As I have noticed on this page, Deletion Sorting Page, all of your current votes, all Delete, has these comments:

1. "Fails routine, fails coverage, fails notability, fails everything." - stated one time
2. "Fails routine or something like that." - stated four times
3. "Some editors dont like UFC and I think we should do what they say." - stated four times

I don't mind the votes, but I have noticed an sudden turn of your stance.

Taking a look at this page, Article Alert Archive, and taking a look at the discussions that followed, I found quotes like this: "Plenty of reliable sources for notability.", with a vote as Keep.

On May 5th, you voted Keep with this comment: "Per witch hunt and personal agenda.".

Same date, "Editors who know nothing about UFC or MMA are trying to ruin the coverage of UFC on Wikipedia." (Diaz vs Mille (2nd nomination), Keep Vote)

But also on the same date, Johnson vs McCall (2nd nomination), this time around you voted for Delete with the comment: "Mtking does not like UFC and I think we should all do what he or she says.", and as far as I can see, all subsequent votes from you has been Delete.

My concern to all this is NOT your voting OR your argument for voting, but that you are, dare I say it with great respect, that you are trolling. And if by any chance you do, could you please reconsider your stance? By "troll voting", you are not contributing to the on-going debate, rather the opposite, I'm afraid.
