=== Stop deleting my links ===
You keep going on the Road Rules pages and deleting links to the website The Real World/Road Rules Blog. I was the one who brought totally updated the Road Rules Wiki and all the information comes from that website. If you don't know what you're doing, since all you do is delete "spam" off the pages, please keep off! --- Thanks!


Please stop it!


You're really annoying! Research before you do!

=== Excuse YOU is right! ===
I don't care who you are. My deletion of those sections WAS absolutely brought up on the discussion board. YOU cleary chose to avoid the discussion. Furthermore, most of the claims made in that section were NOT sourced or cited - so perhaps you should take a look at them instead of badgering users like myself. Please do not respond on my wall anymore - I really don't think its appropriate given your attitude. ([[User:Flexpedition|Flexpedition]] 14:33, 15 January 2007 (UTC))




== about the notability requirement ==

<blockquote>
A topic is notable if it has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works with sources independent of the subject itself and each other
<br /><br />
The company or corporation has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the company or corporation itself.
<br /><br />
* This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, television documentaries, and published reports by consumer watchdog organizations
</blockquote>

I think I am confused on your objective view what notability means. From I could find there are more trivial articals with significantly less relevance to society and yet still gathers a spot in Wiki. Let me ask you, why are there artical with no publication in the Bibiliograph and yet still considered notable while Q's has filled colums after colums in Mid Missouri and yet still considered unnotable? <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Master q|Master q]] ([[User talk:Master q|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Master q|contribs]]) 21:23, 31 December 2006 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

I deleted Liquid Ghoul's talk comment because I found it very offensive and I thought you had a rule here on Wikipedia-no personal attacks. I will delete any other offensive materials I find. Just thought you might wanna know. [[User:BrandiniTheGreat|BrandiniTheGreat]] 23:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== Persistent vandal issue ==

On December 26, you reverted this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Timothy_McVeigh&diff=next&oldid=96580938] conspiracy theory from [[Timothy McVeigh]]. Since then, [[Oklahoma City bombing]] has repeatedly had its wikilink to Timothy McVeigh changed to a hard link to the vandalized version of the article, and it is always done with a misleading edit summary. A variety of IP addresses are being used to make the exact same edits: {{user|85.179.3.214}}, {{user|72.36.239.30}}, and especially {{user|81.233.185.213}}. Is there anything I can do other than leave vandalism warnings and request [[WP:AIV|blocks]] once each address hits the magic threshold? I currently have [[User talk:81.233.185.213|81.233.185.213]] up to a {{tl|test4}} warning. --[[User:Kralizec!|Kralizec!]] ([[User talk:Kralizec!|talk]]) 06:55, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

== Zoe Tay ==

Hi Zoe - on 11 December 2006, the Zoe Tay page was semi-protected by [[User:Sarah Ewart|Sarah Ewart]] after the discussion at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive153#Zoe_Tay. Today (1 Jan 2007), however, a sockpuppet by the name of [[User:Wenfangfan|Wenfangfan]] has come in to remove the three tags attached to it - the sprotected tag, the unreferenced tag and the inappropriate tone tag. [[User:Ryulong|Ryulong]] reverted to the original version. [[User:Wenfangfan|Wenfangfan]] came in to revert the article back to his/her preferred version, and added an image that was uploaded by banned user [[User:Walaha2006|Walaha2006]], confirming suspicions of sockpuppetry. I have reported this to [[Wikipedia:Administrator Intervention]] but hope that you would deem an indefinite ban fit for [[User:Wenfangfan|Wenfangfan]]. I feel that if sockpuppets are allowed to come in repeatedly and revert all edits to their preferred version, it makes a mockery out of Wikipedia. [[User:OngBS|OngBS]] 16:04, 1 January 2007 (UTC)


== Spero Dedes ==

Hi Zoe - you removed the facts about [[Spero Dedes]] from his Wikipedia article, under rm attack. As noted, it's not an attack when the facts of the situation are presented - he didn't do his research and broadcasted misleading and simply wrong facts about Rutgers University.

Zoe - great.

Zoe - I re-edited, and added a sourcing to NJ.com, which is a blog maintained by a writer for the Star Ledger, the biggest New Jersey newspaper. THanks. [[User:MattyFridays|MattyFridays]] 22:00, 1 January 2007 (UTC)


Try the second link added. From the Star Ledger, again. Search for "South Jersey" in the second link, under "Random Thoughts". It's sourced TWICE now. [[User:MattyFridays|MattyFridays]] 22:05, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem. BTW, there's some jerk that is actually attacking Spero now, looking through the reverts. Just sayin'. [[User:MattyFridays|MattyFridays]] 22:08, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

== I didn't log out ==

Check my IP. I didn't log out and haven't been edit warring. Instead I left a protest on the Talk Page, as I was instructed to do. Thank you for your kind consideration. [[User:WerewolfSatanist|WerewolfSatanist]] 23:00, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

For the record, this is WerewolfSatanist logged out. [[User:4.88.23.204|4.88.23.204]] 23:01, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps it is notable that in the conversation, Aren hadn't sought consensus himself and deleted the LaVeyan Satanism article that there had been, which had included a criticism section (which as far as I could tell had no objections). Of course I could be in the wrong here, but I don't see what this person did as exactly condoned by everybody. [[User:WerewolfSatanist|WerewolfSatanist]] 23:20, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

This is not a real page and is a modification of Food . If there is any problem with this, see my talk page."

Re: Worm Ouroboros entries. Thanks! Its one of my favorite books also. I first read it 30 years ago and I keep coming back to it. As to page numbers, well the edition online at Sacred-Texts includes page numbers so... I'm pretty much using that. Still, too much work to put in editions for me.

==Itche Goldberg Page==
Although I can not prove this, I can almost guarantee you that Mr. Berger did not base his post on the wikipedia article; he mostly likely based it on a post to the "mendele" yiddish e-mail list. If you would like, I will send you the e-mail; however, I would need your e-mail address first.

Please stop deleting articles because they don't meet your person tastes. You obviously know very little about Hip Hop. Soul Control is very reputable dance crew. Among many contributions to the Hip Hop dance scene, they have popularized the now common "Air Flare". In fact, the term itself was coined by this crew. You probably don't know what an "Air Flare" is, basically, its like a gymnastic flare "Thomas Flare" except the entire front half of the flare is skipped over.

You'll see the move in this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cFB4Lzafdk


Soul Control includes many famous dancers. Kujo (Jacob Lyons), who at one time trained Cirque du Soleil in Canada, has pushed the push the envelope on Breakdancing/Bboy.

Granted, the article was a short stub, I am working on a detailed article.

Socrates/Plato argued that the right-action requires knowledge. For good intension can have bad consequence when we act without knowing. You are just trying to keep Wikipedia a source of good knowledge but you judgment should yield to knowing the difference between rubbish, something you know for sure is spam, and a stub or obscure entry.

Sincerely, Babak.

http://yiddish.forward.com/pages/radio/- about 22 minutes in there is an interview with Khaver Itche's longtime assistant- of course you have to understand yiddish. Like I said, I would also contact Mendele e-mail list. In addition, try the league for Yiddish (leagueforyiddish.org); if you email the director, she should back up the date of death.

Hello Zoe-

I see that you deleted and protected "Freaks of Laughter". I would like to request that you unprotected it as a stub so that I and others can create a useful article on the subject.

You should know that I am in no way affiliated with the film or in any way vested in it other than that I have enjoyed it at a screening here in Washington DC and assisted the films producer in posting it on Google Video for viewing on the web (a requirement of one of the festivals that is considering the film).

After reading the possible reasons why it was deleted I understand some of the possible problems with the original entry and will use those guidelines in writing the new entry.

Thank you for your work on Wikipedia I find it very useful and I am sure that much of the credit should go to people such as yourself.

== Re: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jewdar_%282nd_nomination%29&diff=prev&oldid=98522216 this] edit of yours ==


: Even though I disagree with Zoe, and agree with you, on the Afd in question, I have to say she was right in her note. She might have been a bit brusque, but that's partly because she has less time. She fights a lot more fires than I do, so I'll take the liberty of explaining in more detail for her; I hope she doesn't mind. Your post did not shed more light on the issue of whether the [[Jewdar]] article should be kept. It did, however, raise the general level of heat and acrimony in the debate, unnecessarily. It encouraged turning a discussion about the article into a personal argument, unnecessarily. It ridiculed another participant, unnecessarily. It made people new to the debat want to vote against the article just because someone supporting it was behaving rudely. Whatever short pithy link you label that with, whether [[WP:CIVIL]], [[WP:TIGER]], [[WP:AGF]], [[WP:NPA]], or even [[WP:DICK]], let's just say in words it was just a bad idea all around. Please, take a deep breath, realize that this is just one article (out of how many million?), realize that no one, not Recury, and certainly not Zoe, is out to get you personally, realize that we are all volunteers, trying to give the world a free encyclopedia, which seems to be a very worthwhile and rather selfless endeavor, and we should be nice to each other. We are all fools in certain ways and especially on certain days of the week, so we had darn well better suffer each other gladly if we want to get anything done. -- [[User:AnonEMouse|AnonEMouse]] <sup>[[User_talk:AnonEMouse|(squeak)]]</sup> 15:27, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

== Removal of username ==

Hi,

I saw your reply on the [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents]] in regards to user going by the name [[user:ARYAN818]]. I strongly agree with you that the combination of the name is not coincidential. Furthermore, not only is his name offensive to some users, but his attitude of intolerance in regards to other people's cultures and ethnic background directly and indirectly shows. This user is taking advantage of the fact that the name Aryan is commonly used in Northern India and is making a fool out of a lot of us. This username is also disrespective to other users who may be of certain backgrounds who find this name offensive. I support you if you are planning on either removing the user, or getting the user to change his user name. Regards,

[[User:Wiki Raja|Wiki Raja]] 23:26, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

He will tell you that 818 stands for an area code, and that Aryan means "noble" in Northern India. Even if his name is accepted, his intolerant attitude will have to go. [[User:Wiki Raja|Wiki Raja]] 23:35, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

It's amazing how some people can get away with offensive usernames at times. Similarly, there are those who get away with using a Nazi name and swastika for a restaurant in India. It is trully a shame, how some people will take advantage of the system under the guise of cultural heritage only to promote their culture and to undermine others.[[http://www.telegraphindia.com/1060824/asp/nation/story_6648730.asp]] [[http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/868469.cms]] [[http://www.zmag.org/sustainers/content/2003-02/20d%27souza_.cfm]] [[User:Wiki Raja|Wiki Raja]] 02:35, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== Whoops - you deleted a page in error ==

Dear Zoe:

I spent a lot of time creating the page [[Clear rolling papers]]. It was not written in ad format and I think maybe you misjudged it. Actually it was the opposite of an ad b/c I hate the product in question and I had a lot of trouble not letting my personal feelings get into the article. Could you PLEASE re-read it - then repost it. If you feel it needs cleanup then tag it appropriately. I have just spoken to other Admins who agree it was really not an ad.

I hope you will have a look at the article you deleted and then repost it. It's very important that the public knows that Clear rolling papers are just cellophane and the backgroud of the item and it's historic implications.

I tend to agree with you - see [[Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Desk/veto]], and note the author (if you read this and it hasn't yet been deleted, please do). Then you have the Esperanza attempt to revitalise, with him controlling it (from the little I read before it was deleted-and-salted), and I'm sure there's others. He just recreated the "co-ordinators" on [[Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Desk]], who "are the only ones who can determine concensus", have a "special veto" (see above), etc. Although not the most applicable situation for it, a Request for Comment may not be such a bad idea.

== Sourced info ==

Dear user, thank you for your message! Wikipedia has become a place where nations wage intellectual wars against each other. Articles are nothing political pamphlets. Have you looked at the sources? They are often nothing but politics. Other users who come up with similar sources are sidelined because they are either less war-thirsty or numerically disadvantaged. I have noticed that Aremanians and Persian chauvinists are probably paid to misinform about Azerbaijani related articles. You have nothing to discuss. Wikipedia shall block these articles. They will soon create big scandals! These political articles are making this website a liability. [[User:85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] 22:17, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== Are you admin???? ==

Look at the article about Azerbaijan, and any article whatsoever about Azerbaijan!!! Of course I also have political orientation and I feel obliged to enforce my political orientations arbitrarily. You know why? Because articles about my homeland are written by the enemies of my homeland. Sourced information have been deleted by other users and nothing happened. Azerbaijani users discussed the issues and received personal attacks. What do you call this? It's all dirty work and I think there is no other way to respond by dirty work. Do you see articles about Armenia mocked like this? No. Any article about Azerbaijani issues have been continuously mocked by Persian and Armenian chauvinists who portray themselves as Azerbaijani. Their sources are racist weblogs... as long as there are these problems there will be dirty work. I don't know how to solve these problems. I would personally put some Westerner write the articles according to Western sources then block the articles. [[User:85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] 22:29, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== No Blogs ==

Thanks Zoey for telling me that we can't make blogs. I would have never Found that out.--Klaus 22:40, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== There is no possibility of having consensus ==

Look at the articles about Azerbijan, read them carefully and if you don't see simple political pamphlets correct me! Why are these articles up? You think Azerbaijanis did not try consensus???? They did. Look at the talk page! Believe me, this is campagin of misinformation. There are people paid to misinform! Who to discuss to? Look at the discussion! There are only personal attacks. Why is the article about Azerbaijan portraying Azerbijan in such a bad way? You think Azerbaijanis would have written those? Anyway, thanks for your comments! <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[Special:Contributions/85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] ([[User talk:85.186.230.115|talk]]) 22:41, 9 January 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

== I don't want to waste your time!!! ==

Let me tell you how the tactic works, as I have discovered. I previously tried to edit articles. I found sources, which were not blogs or political pamphlets. They were academic sources. I did some editing of an article about Azerbaijanis. I first tried to talk. I received many insults and was called names. Then I ignored and moved on to edit. I think there were tens of members each popping up every few seconds and editing back everything I had edited. Are you joking? Who can you resolve your conflicts with? One, two, three, or four members? They are so many. It's a waste of time. The only way is to play their own dirty game, though Azerbaijani or Turkish governments are not funding these strategies. The only way is to mock them, insult, intimidate, delete, edit back, intimidate, mock and insult until some of them give up. Many Azerbaijanis gave up like this. It's strange but Wikipedia policy has these tremendous flaws. The rules can be useful only if there was good faith. I explained about that. [[User:85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] 22:48, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== I filed that too!!! ==

I filed it. After that dodgy parts were removed and the removal lasted for about 30 hours. Some of the members came back and changed everything back to where they were. No Aremnian will ever tell you these, I am telling you becasue I am not doing those things. I wouldn't mind being blocked anyway. Please look at this article: Azerbaijan (Iran) and you will see that there were changes made a few days ago by admins then the members who were mocking and distorting the article disappeared for a bit more than a day. They came back and turned the article back to where it was. please take a look. It was also a copy-right violation!!! That was why the admins deleted most of the article. The mockers came back soon, I think there are about 20-30 members at least and changed the article back to where it was, making it even worse. PLEASE take a look!!! [[User:85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] 22:55, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== I know... ==

I know you don't know what to tell me. I told you about a very grave and serious problem at Wikipedia. It has become the war-zone of conflicting ideologies. There is no already-thought solution for it. Let me explain the strategy to you once again. I am not expecting solution from you but maybe if you are able to pass this on to someone with authority they can, at some point, think about a solution. So, the strategy goes like this:
1) You have somehwre between 50 to 100 IP adresses. You pay about 50 to 100 people and give them a single task: MOCK, INTIMIDATE, EDIT, DISTORT, MANIPULATE, INSULT, do whatever in your power so articles about the history and facts of the people that we consider threatening are not seen by Westerners the way we do not want to. A country like Armenia is doing this and the result is that, IT WORKS. Azerbaijan is not doing this. So, if you look at any possible article about Azerbaijan and Azerbaijanis you will see they are written by Armenians.
It is quite funny, isn't it? A country can afford spending a lot of money for propaganda, especially when it is afraid of its future. Or maybe when it relies on certain factions' non-awareness of the opposing views, or facts.
Believe me there is no way to oppose this strategy but to do the same, but I cannot do that. It is too costly. A governemnt can do it. Cheers! [[User:85.186.230.115|85.186.230.115]] 23:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

== ... ==

Well... I doubt the US government is doing something like that. Small countries that feel threatened and fear for their future do such things. I told you how it works, right? You think it wouldn't work? It would, for sure. Paying 50 people is nothing for a government budget. And 50 people can do a hell lot of misinformation. So, you really really think this is paranoia?? No, seriously, you think this is paranoia? Governments are willing to pay tens and hundreds of millions to improve their image by ads on tv and the press. They also pay huge sums of money to researchers and writers to do favourable workd for them. You think those costs are greater than paying 50 people to watch all the articles about your country and your enemy's country on Wikipedia??? Well, at some point all this will get out of control when all the governments will start paying people write about them. It is true though that Iran's government would never be so stupid to pay 50 people to write disinformation about the US becasue it would put up with 300 million of English-speakers editing but how many Azerbaijanis speak English well enough, like me for example? How many of them search the net in English? How many of them have the time to waste to correct propaganda against their country. Very few :))
So, the method works for small to average countries misinforimg about other small to average countries or regions!

== Please reconsider deletion ==

Dear Zoe,

Will you please reconsider your deletion of the "masturbatory thread" entry? I do not believe it qualified under the [[speedy deletion]] policy, and by any measure the article is useful or at least deserving of appropriate review and debate under the wikipedia [[deletion policy]].

The only comments you made on the deletion record are "nonsense" and "still nonsense." As per[[Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators]], "nonsense" is a valid criterion for deleting articles without review under the [[Wikipedia:Speedy Deletion]] policy. Under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion]], "patent nonsense" ([[Wikipedia:Patent Nonsense]]) is a criterion. However, for it to be "patent nonsense" an article must be:

1. Total nonsense - i.e. text or random characters that have no assignable meaning at all.... [or]
2. Content that, while apparently meaningful after a fashion, is so completely and irredeemably confused that no intelligent person can be expected to make any sense of it whatsoever.

The article is obviously not a random string of characters. Nor is it so confused that no intelligent person can make no sense of it whatsoever. Several people contributed to writing and editing the article and I wrote a "talk" post describing why the article was relevant. In addition, the phrase "masturbatory thread" returns 377 google entries. Between the people working on the article and the wider universe, there are obviously people who see some meaning in the phrase.

Under the circumstances, I believe you may have inadvertently deleted the article "out of process" and that if you believe the article has no merit the proper "proposed for deletion" procedure should be followed. In the alternative, if the article was merely poorly or incompetently written, it should be flagged as requiring clean-up. I mentioned some of this in my talk post.

Underneath it all, "Masturbatory Threads" are a common, well known phenomenon unique to online forums, and that significantly affect the online experience and the success of the forums. The term fits properly alongside many dozens of other well-established Wikipedia articles in at least two categories: [[:Category:Internet forum terminology]] and [[:Category:Internet culture]]. These articles cover such terms as post counts, baiters, trolls, bumping, flaming, double posting, forum spam, on-topic versus off-topic posts, moderators, Godwin's Law, thread breaking, lurkers, leets, and kickbans. Many articles in these categories, similarly, have several hundred google hits as well.

Therefore, would you kindly re-post the article and, if it is deficient in any way, take the appropriate action so that the people who have been editing it today can continue their work to meet Wikipedia standards?

Thanks,

== Editing the Marehan page ==

Hi

I find it very unprofessionally that you keep deleting large verified junk from the Marehan page.

Please cease as I have provided citations for the evidence mentioned on the page.

Regards
[[User:MarehanEmpire|MarehanEmpire]]

That is because as you might know, the late president shifted and shared his power with his immediate clan. Hence why they are accountable for the many changes that they have brought to Somalia (education, higher literacy, etc).

Besides, why did you delete the reference the Marehan Sultanate or do you want me to present the actual page of the reference that I have included?

Zoe

I am appaled that you deny that the Ethiopians didn't had the Cubian and Soviet backing when Somalia when to war with them. It is common public knowledge.

Nevertheless I will provide the evidence for that.

Evidence 1:
In 1970 Mr Barre proclaimed a socialist state, paving the way for close relations with the USSR. In 1977, with the help of Soviet arms, Somalia attempted to seize the Ogaden region of Ethiopia, but was defeated thanks to Soviet and Cuban backing for Ethiopia, which had turned Marxist.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/country_profiles/1072592.stm

Evidence two:

In December 1976, an Ethiopian delegation in Moscow signed a military assistance agreement with the Soviet Union. The following April, Ethiopia abrogated its military assistance agreement with the United States and expelled the American military missions. In July 1977, sensing the disarray in Ethiopia, Somalia attacked across the Ogaden Desert in pursuit of its irredentist claims to the ethnic Somali areas of Ethiopia. Ethiopian forces were driven back deep inside their own frontier but, with the assistance of a massive Soviet airlift of arms and Cuban combat forces, they stemmed the attack. The major Somali regular units were forced out of the Ogaden in March 1978. Twenty years later, development in the Somali region of Ethiopia lagged.

I have already provided the sources, one from the BBC page and the other one from the US government page.

Thanks for your question "What does "RatCE" mean?" on the etymology of [[Rutland]].

==Response==
I do know that you favoured clemency towards me yesterday (there's a thank-you further up this page!) - I was very grateful (I spend too much time on here, and so got withdrawal yesterday...). I'm not going to bore you with this issue: if you want to find out, you can easily read the admin 3rr page and the article history in question, and if you don't, then I'll be wasting both our time by rambling here. But I do know that the 3RR is a borderline rather than a right (and said as much on the admin page). I did repeatedly ask the other editors to discuss their changes rather than partially/wholly revert - they didn't answer until my third revert, today. As it happens, the dispute already seems to be winding down: another editor has accepted most of my changes, and I have now suggested information which should be restored/added to the article on the talk page; I hope the others will be willing to talk this time.

And thank you, again, for the help yesterday - even if my zealousness has landed me in it again. [[User:Michaelsanders|Michaelsanders]] 17:10, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

:Well, I won't pretend that I don't bring some of these arguments with others on myself: sometimes through outright rudeness, more often through my baseline nature - I'm neither peaceful or quiet by nature, and that seems to cause a lot of problems for myself and others. Of course, one of the big unavoidable problems with wikipedia is the inevitable clash of timezones and schedules: it's often difficult to tell whether someone is refusing to talk because they're being truculent, or because they've just gone to bed...since I have a tendency to assume the former, it gets me really annoyed when people don't answer, and correspondingly less pleasant towards them when they do.

But ignore my maunderings. Thanks for the advice, and the help (which I so carelessly squandered). [[User:Michaelsanders|Michaelsanders]] 17:37, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I didnt recreate the page, next time you should check the discussion page. I posted there to discuss why this shouldnt be deleted, I checked the rules and I see no reason why this couldnt be posted. What youre doing is very childish and disrespectful. Ill try and post what I can remember again: The article is not a joke or hoax, There are people who accept the idea and it is just as viable as christianity, Islam, rastafarianism, scientology and every other pagan religion. If they get their pages then The Church of Fonz can get its own. Just because it was created by Peter from Family Guy doesnt mean it cant be accepted.

At [[WP:MOSDASH]] is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_%28dashes%29#Dash_guidelines_for_Wikipedia_editors mentioned]: ''Hyphens and dashes are generally rather avoided in page names (e.g., year of birth and death are generally not used in a page name to disambiguate two people with the same name). ''(...)''If hyphens and dashes are needed to write a page name correctly (e.g., Piano-Rag-Music, Jack-in-the-box, Nineteen Eighty-Four), prefer simple hyphens, and avoid hair spaces, even in the odd case of a range forming part of the title, e.g., History of the Soviet Union (1985-1991).

The fiction is a zine called "fanscape"


Well fans don't write it, the writers do, I don't know if that counts as one

Yeah, its like the story of their rise to fame etc but they use characters people may know to make it more familiar

Oh ok, well I have seen loads of articles on similar subjects but fair enough.

Well I'm not sure what fanfic is but i've seen ones on characters in zines, one gave me the idea for this actually. I dunno, have a look round

Please justify your deletion more fully

I cited my source. Did you read it? How do you know it was original research?

I found when I went to amke another save that you had deleted it already

[[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] 23:18, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

:Everyone makes mistakes.

:I suspected that your deletion of this article, skipping the intermediate steps, was a mistake. You say ([[User:Zoe#Philosophy]]) some nice things about trust, and collegiality. Well, in order for it to be fair to ask others to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]], those who have been entrusted with a measure of authority have to exercise that authority in a manner that demonstrates a willingness to be accountable.

:I am going to suggest that if administrators are interested in showing their willingness to be accountable they won't skip any of the steps -- not unless it was an emergency.

:I think you are as aware as I am that it is recommended that nominators refrain from placing a tag for speedy deletion on articles that have recently been created. I don't have to quote [[WP:CSD]] to you do I?

:Zoe, I recently re-read an official section that suggested we "forgive and forget" slights. You deeply offended me in our first interaction 16 months ago. I had created four articles about Guantanamo captives that day. All four of them were nominated for deletion. {{tl|afd}} was a new procedure for me. I was totally unfamiliar with it. And none of you regular patrollers was showing the least bit of effort to explain it to me.

:You justified deleting those articles, and, it seemed, ANY articles about Guantanamo, because you seemed to be saying that ANY article about Guantanamo could only be an opportunity for "America-bashing". I thought that sounded terrible. Bigoted, narrow-minded, parochial. I thought it sounded completely counter to the idea that the wikipedia is an international project, with a commitment to intellectual truth. But, I didn't assume you meant what you wrote the way it sounded to me. I asked you for clarification. I wasn't mocking you. It was a serious question. I believed then that it meritied a serious answer. I thought I phrased my question in civil terms. And I thought I deserved a civil answer.

:You didn't answer this question. Instead you nominated the next Guantanamo article I created with a nomination that contained what I regarded as a completely uncalled for personal insult.

:Most wikipedia conributors are fair-minded, and can be counted on to show collegiality. But, even before I met you, I had met a wikistalker, who felt their American patriotism meant that they could and should suppress information that they felt reflected poorly on the USA, without regard to how neutrally it was expressed, or how authoritative or verifiable the sources were. When you wouldn't clarify whether you really meant the surface meaning of your statements about suppressing all Guantanamo articles, I assumed you meant your statement just the way it sounded -- that your patriotism was so strong it could, potentially swing into POV pushing.

:I had spent over a couple of dozen hours working on articles about the Guantanamo captives at that point. I didn't think they were POV America-bashing then. I have spent about 50 times as much time working on those articles now. And I don't think there is a POV America-bashing one among them.

:I don't have a problem with you, or anyone, disagreeing about that. But, I would ask critics to be specific, and engage in civil dialogue.

:Zoe, it doesn't matter if we disagree, so long as we both are collegial, remain civil, and comply with the wikipedia's policies and procedures.

:Can you reassure me that you didn't jump the gun, and delete the article I had created, a few minutes after I had created it, without going through {{tl|db-bio}}, {{tl|prod}} or {{tl|afd}} out of personal animosity? Can you reassure me that the articles I start will be safe from inappropriate deletions from you?

:On [[September 28]] [[2006]] you cast an opinion on an {{tl|afd}} discussion of a Guantanamo captive, that that particular captive didn't merit an article of his own. Well, since you seemed to have gone on record as stating that no Guantanamo captive merited an article an article, that didn't seem to be very trustworthy justification.

:I would appreciate an answer to the question I asked you sixteen months ago. Did you really mean that you thought the wikipedia should not have any coverage of the Guantanamo captives, and issues and topics related to their detention? If so, do you still feel that way?

:Candidly -- [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] 20:35, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

::Zoe, you aren't addressing what I wrote. I am not arguing that you should re-instate the Mark article. On your User page you speak about collegiality. I am under the impression that you administrators are supposed to follow certain procedures. And unnecessarily skipping steps when deleting an article does not build trust. I am asking you to recommit yourself to following the rules. What would it have cost you to put a {{tl|prod}} on that article, of a {{tl|db-bio}}? -- [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] 21:07, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

:::Zoe, I did already check criteria for speedy deletion. And I checked it again, just now.
:::Can you please quote the passage where it says that original research is grounds for speedy deletion?
:::Can you plesae quote the passage that says administrators have the discretion to skip the step of one person placing a speedy tag or a {{tl|prod}} tag, and a second person consummating the deletion? Can you please quote the passage that says you can delete an article, without placing any tags, or engaging in any discussion over what might turn out to be a relatively harmless problem?
:::How often do your ignore the recommendation in both [[WP:CSD]] and [[WP:CFD]] that we remember some wikipedians, (like me,) create articles in stages? You deleted this article within minutes of its creation.
:::I continue to believe your deletion was a breach of the recommended wikiprocedures.

:::Zoe, everyone makes mistakes. All wikipedia contributos should be willing to try to be humble enough to own up to them But it is particularly important for administrators to be able to acknowledge mistakes, because (1) they exercise more power than ordinary wikipedian, and (2), they should be setting an example. -- [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] 21:31, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

::::Zoe, everone makes mistakes. You aren't reading what I write. I haven't asked you to undelete that article. Not only haven't I requested you to undelete it. I already told you I am not asking you to reinstate the article.

::::I read [[WP:RFC]]. It recommends that wikipedians make a good faith effort to resolve problems with the person we have a problem with first. I am trying my best to phrase the concerns I have with your actions in the most tactful way I can, without being so tactful you don't understand what I am saying.. I am not getting the impression that you are trying very hard to show collegiality to me.

::::Zoe, go [[WP:TEA|have a cup of tea]], sleep on it. then re-read [[WP:CSD]]. If you can explain where it authorizes you to delete articles without going through the step of having one wikipedian place the tag, and wait for another wikipedian who is an administrator to consummate the deletion, I'll give you one cheerful apology. And if you can explain where it authorizes you to delete articles without waiting more than a few minutes after their creation, I'll give you another cheerful apology. Finally, if you can find where it says your perception that an article contains "original research" or "speculation" are grounds for speedy deletion, I'll give you yet another cheerful apology. But, if, after that cup of tea, and that's good night's sleep, you can't find these three things you claim are in that document, I suggest you consider simply saying you were wrong, and make a commitment to avoid committing that particular mistake again? -- [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] 21:58, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Apparently the reason that my article on "Fraquetball" was deleted was because it fell under the category "something made up in school one day". It says that these sorts of things can end up on Wikipedia if "someone first sits down and researches them, and publishes a book, an academic paper, or a magazine/journal article detailing that research. Such resources are reliable, and therefore the subject can become eligible for Wikipedia." One example apparently is the school craze "freak dancing" about which an article was published in Education week. The reason I felt that an article on Fraquetball now would be publishable on Wikipedia because it was indeed researched by a reporter from the Pioneer Press, and an article was written and published on Fraquetball in the St. Paul Pioneer Press. The article was on the front page of the local news section, and a link was provided to this article on the page I created. The Pioneer Press mind you, is no underground publication, it has many readers from all over Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakota's, and Iowa. I also would like to note that Fraquetball is more than a passing fad. While freak dancing has no doubt come and gone, Fraquetball perseveres. There have been dozens of teams to play in different seasons across the years, all kinds of students and teachers participate. Their are various statistics kept in a main computer, and coveted awards are handed out at the end of the season, and each year there is a playoff, and one team is crowned champion. So please reconsider not allowing an article on Fraquetball on this website, since it now clearly fulfills the criteria posed by Wikipedia.

== Is the Fraquetball website itself "trivial"? ==

The fraquetball website, while not on a very high quality server, contains a great deal of information on the sport, and was cited in the article in the pioneer press.

What is it about school websites that disqualify them as reliable sources. They are reviewed by the school board to make sure everything is accurate and proper, and this isn't run by the students, it's run by the school administration.

Well in the 1930s people in Honduras said that he was from there and that hes family were from Cuba and they went back because of the bad situation in HN

Another thing they were announcing in the radio in the 1930s that Fidel was from there! but idk why people dont recognize that he if from HN maybe because HN did not want to be a comunist repuclic idk!

Its not a personal point of view when I say that these articles are blatantly ignoring the Turkish side of events and depicting the history of an Empire in a negative light, its the politics of the old influencing our perceptions of the past today. Bloody Sultaj???Its wrong.

To whom it may concern,

IT IS NOT NON-SENSE. It is a new word created by some high schoolers and it is sweeping the school. I just wanted to share it with the Wikipedia community. Many words are started on the Internet and is then added to the dictionary. Inventing words are a way of life. If no-one thought up words to share with one another we would still be talking to one another in grunts and groans. Also I am protected by the U.S. Bill of Rights to publish anything I wish on a piece of writing whether it be on paper or electronic. If you do take it down you are being Non-American,and if you aren't an American then you can't do anything due to the fact I have international protection.

Thank you for representing the Wikipedia community by shooting down a word that in my mind that is as real as these that I am typing right now.

I was going to add that later on as my ideas of what to share with this community. I understand that it's your job to take off what you think doesn't belong. But I don't see anything wrong with this article. It IS a word. It HAS a meaning,origin,creators,stem words,synonyms,proper uses. I just added this article today and I need to fix it up.

<blockquote>Make constructive comments on how to improve or create a sourced article, but further attacks will be grounds for blocking.</blockquote>

Now I feel attacked. I only commented about the article in question on the talk page. I meant no attack to anyone in particular. I managed to find a copy of the page on the web as it was before it was deleted, and I found it worthy of being kept, or recreated at least. The talk page is explicitly the right place to express those views. Removing my comments amounts to censorship. You'll see I've changed nothing there, because I don't want to be involved in a revert war.

Zoe: I know how hard you work to keep the project presentable to the average reader and that Jimbo's approach seems to disrespect your efforts. But some factors that might have gone into his rational include the fact that NIU is a fully-acredited instition of higher learning which has a much better claim at a 501(c)(3) tax status than the Foundation does and that, throughout history, nations have sometimes sacraficed finished product for the sake of highter education (you know what I mean: supplies that go back into University laboratories and classrooms). Jimmy has to guard against the mere appearance of the project and the Foundation being for something other than for educational purposes. On the other hand, even pages at libraries eventually get bored of re-shelving books, so if you take a break from RC patrolling, I can understand. -- [[User:64.9.239.102|64.9.239.102]] 05:56, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

:Zoe, I would second that. I know that your intentions were to protect the integrity of the encyclopaedia, and I feel that the public rebuke you received from Jimbo was undeserved. I was surprised at his reaction &mdash; not so much the fact that he wanted the matter dropped as that he did not take into account that you were trying to protect the encyclopaedia, that you were simply looking for an assurance that the assignment would not be repeated, and that you had absolutely no way of knowing that the matter had been resolved. Looking at [[Special:Contributions/Jimbo_Wales|Jimbo's contributions]], I see that he had not edited for nearly four days before he made that post on AN/I, and then, after that single post, he made no more edits for over 39 hours, so it's quite likely that he was caught up with real life commitments and just didn't manage to post that the matter had been resolved, and then, a few days later, made a hasty post without taking the time to word it more graciously, or to consider that you couldn't have known it was resolved.

[[Image:MahadevShiva.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Zoe achieves inner peace while feasting on the souls on vandals.]]
Just one small comment here. Zoe made clear that if Mr Pierce apologised and made clear that he wouldn't do this again, she would drop the matter. Ignoring for the moment the issue of whether the matter was hers to take up or drop in the first place, couldn't the same be said about Zoe's conduct here? If she apologised on her part for the way she approached the matter (not for doing something about it, but for the ''manner'' in which she did something about it - compare her approach to that of Jimbo and Georgewilliamherbert), then similarly, the matter could be laid to rest. I've copied this comment here from Jimbo's talk page. Jimbo's comment may have upset Zoe, but Zoe quite clearly wasn't listening to the concerns people had raised at ANI about how she was handling the matter. Jimbo was good enough to later apologise to Zoe. It would be nice if Zoe could recognise that an apology from her for the way she handled this would put the matter to rest and allow everyone to move on. [[User:Carcharoth|Carcharoth]] 11:21, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
:Speaking only for myself, I don't need an apology from Zoe. She wasn't attacking any of us, only defending herself against the growing controversy (which I note wasn't present in the initial thread - it must have taken her by surprise.) Jimbo asked her to apologize to Mr. Pierce, which in my opinion she should do and maybe has done, but it doesn't have to and shouldn't be public. No ritual humiliation, please. I prefer to quote Jimbo: "Zoe is good." No doubt we've learned our lesson, and should move on.[[User:Proabivouac|Proabivouac]] 11:33, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

:: I'm not suggesting that Zoe apologise for any attitude towards us, just the way she handled things with Mr Pierce. Proabivouac, I disagree that it doesn't need to be public. I really think that a brief, genuine acknowledgement from Zoe that she was heavy-handed in her approach, and she would do things differently next time, would help. Jimbo apologised publically. Zoe published what Mr Pierce said in those e-mails (though she has now deleted that page). If Zoe doesn't feel that she should do things differently next time, then this will all just repeat itself next time. I wouldn't normally make an issue out of this, but she said ''"We got here because he won't pledge not to do it again"'' - do we really want to end up saying ''"We got here because she won't pledge not to do it again"''? Part of the controversy was that Zoe did not acknowledge those who had concerns with how she handled this (the ''"I don't think that "community concern" is opposed to my actions"'' bit). If she publically acknowledged that there were valid concerns about how she handled this, ''then'' it would be easier to move on. If she doesn't, then we will all still move on, but there will be no reassurance that it won't happen again. Moving on cannot happen without acknowledgment and understanding, on both sides, of the other side's arguments. Many people have acknowledged that Zoe does great work, and that Jimbo was hasty (but right) to say what he did, and that what Mr Pierce did was not acceptable and that he could have done things differently, but I don't see any corresponding acknowledgement from Zoe that she could have done things differently.
