Spamming

I have just received a warning about spamming from SudoGhost. I'm not sure if this is the proper way to reply but it's the only one I could find. I don't know why you should consider my links to be spam. They are absolutely relevant to the subject, providing a zoological aspect to the description of a species or dog breed. The website at www.skullsite.co.uk was created for this specific purpose and has no commercial purpose. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rnorve (talk • contribs) 18:40, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

The commerciality of the website isn't the issue; you were inserting this link across dozens of articles, which were then removed per WP:LINKSPAM. Looking at your talk page this isn't the first time you were warned about adding external links to multiple articles. If you feel the links are beneficial, please discuss the link on the each article's talk page and see if other editors agree with the addition first, but adding the link en masse across dozens of pages gives the appearance of trying to promote the website (whether commerical or not). - SudoGhost 18:48, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

Question

Hi, I get the strong feeling you and I have interacted in the past when you edited under a different name here. Is that the case? Hobit (talk) 02:15, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

I have never edited under any other account, with the exception of my away account, which has only been used once to answer a question on my talk page while I was not at home. If you feel otherwise, you're welcome to open a WP:SPI on the matter and determine that for yourself (I can understand not taking someone's word at that, so if you feel that question would better be answered by a sockpuppet investigation, you're welcome to ascertain your answer through that venue as well, I won't be offended or assume you're trying to "attack" me by opening one). - SudoGhost 02:25, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

MATE Logo

When I added the MATE icon to the MATE article you removed it because you stated you could not evidence of this being used by MATE for branding, as of 1.2 MATE yes it lacks proper branding. As for not finding evidenace of it being used, the MATE forums as well as on planet MATE the logo or a variation of it is used. Also as per use in Github, the first vairation is user here for start-here.png in the MATE icon theme which is installed into the system by default. RowenStipe (talk) 04:53, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

While the symbol appears to be used (although it doesn't appear to be any official logo), the specific image in question doesn't appear to have been used as a logo for anything, let alone be the MATE logo. This image has some use, but the image uploaded, with the font below it doesn't seem to be used anywhere. Can you show anything that verifies that this image has been used as a logo for MATE? - SudoGhost 05:01, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

Signing posts

I do not know if you realise this, but you have been 'signing' posts with the date only. Here is an example.[1] I do not know how or why you do this; nor do I know whether you do it deliberately. But please could you do it the normal way, so that we know whose signature it is.--Toddy1 (talk) 07:12, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Whoops, sorry about that. Looks like I accidently added five tildes instead of four. I replaced my old keyboard with one that is a different size then the previous one, the only thing I can think of is that maybe the keys are more sensitive than I'm used to. I'll be more mindful to double check before I save the page in the future. I took a quick look at my recent talk page comments, and that was the only instance I could find, were there more somewhere that I overlooked? - SudoGhost 07:16, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Reliable sources

Hello, I am looking for some guidance from you regarding "reliable sources". In the article on Alesya Alexandrova you made a comment that the sources may not be "reliable" and I was hoping you could help by specifying what you consider to be such. Do they have to be U.S. originated news articles and such? I ask this because most of the citations there are Russian sources like Pravda ( The official Russian language newspaper of the Russian Federation ), Russian MSN and Magazines that are the Russian versions of XXL or FHM but do include such sources as IMDB. I am curious how these are judged to be non-reliable and to understand what you would consider to be so, so that perhaps something that is acceptable can be added to this article.

little bit of mess at Raq-C‎

In case you haven't noticed, that user (‎The1Originator (talk · contribs)) is keeping a copy of the Raq-C article at User:RaqC. Which is really strange to me. I also left a warning about the list of official links, which I've removed twice but keep coming back. Admittedly, the rest of the article is a big mess. tedder (talk) 04:30, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

I've seen that. It looked like RaqC (talk · contribs) tried to create an article at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Raquel Cordova, but it was denied. I'm holding off PROD'ing this Raq-C article or taking it to AfD in hopes that it will be filled with some kind of reliable sources, but right now it's just looking like a promotional article with no notability. The user page was probably used initially as a sandbox by User:RaqC, I'm not sure what this other editor is trying to do with it, but WP:MFD might be an option there. - SudoGhost 04:36, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for the welcome, and thank you for the cookie! :) Doopbridge (talk) 07:46, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Time for a cuppa tea?

You may wish to take a cup of tea and stop letting the trolls bait you into something you will regret. -- The Red Pen of Doom 01:33, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
