I don't agree with your decision to delete the article on extreme card manipulation and replace it with a redirect to card manipulation

I wrote the article on extreme card manipulation and was disappointed to find that it had been deleted. So far the only reason I can see is that the person who deleted it is under the impression that extreme card manipulation is exactly the same as plain old card manipulation. This is not the case. In fact, strictly speaking, card manipulation should only really be used to refer to the vanishing and reproduction of playing cards, whereas extreme card manipulation is stunts and flourishes - they are not the same. I do not agree that my article on a specialist field of playing card flourishes should have been replaced with a redirect taking you to an article about something that is, essentially, completely different.

Vandal

I have been accused of being a vandal on User:LUCPOL/Vandal:R9tgokunks due to past editing disputes with yourself, or other being involved in ways with yourself. Since you have been mentioned, i'd like to ask if you could please comment on the mentioned report, Thanks much. -- Hrödberäht (gespräch) 15:12, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Your edits to Twat

Please do not re-add an inappropriate image to the article after it has been rightfully removed as vandalism (its caption makes it clear that it's meant as an attack on its subject), and don't issue warnings to other users for following policy (vandalism and attacks can be removed by anybody). Your contributions make me doubt that you intend to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. Thank you. - Mike Rosoft 09:31, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Excuse me, no. Hang on a minute. Only one editor was removing that image, and it was an anonymous editor whose only contributions were to remove that image. Don't have a go at me for suspecting it was content removing vandalism. I'm sorry if the image was genuinely not supposed to be there, but it's settled now, so no harm done. Thankyou.

Salomé (telenovela) article is a translation from outer site

You said:

• Salomé (telenovela) - Little more than a plot summary, unwikified. Needs to be checked to make sure taht it isn't a translation of Spanish (copyrighted) material from the show's official website. - Mike Rosoft 09:14, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I checked it is a translation, but I dont know what copyright conditions apply to the original material. Please let me know if I have ommited some step before including Copyright Violation template on that page. This is my first week as a wiki-user. (Rjgodoy 06:07, 22 February 2007 (UTC))

A few additional notes about the Czech vandal

There's one (blocked) account that you apparently never listed: Petr.adameк (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) (which, by the way, is an impostor of Petr.adamek (talk · contribs)); Also, the account Ignácek Pospíšil (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) appears to be listed twice. He also targets Portal:African American/Intro with the same kind of vandalism as he does with Mumia Abu-Jamal. Scobell302 18:54, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

the deletion of Arnesia

Sorry but to be honest, there are a LOT of things on wikipedia that are jokes and things that only make sense to certain people. Besides, what's the harm in letting me post something that NO one is ever going to look up? it doesn't exist. I don't get it.

An encyclopedia, encyclopaedia or (traditionally) encyclopædia,[1] is a comprehensive written compendium that contains information on all branches of knowledge or a particular branch of knowledge.

By your own admission, wikipedia is an encyclopedia. I agree. However, knowledge isn't what one person or even a group of people define it to be, but what we all know and ideas we share. I share my ideas with others and therefore it has validity as knowledge of a sort. To say that my article is "nonsense" is to dismiss the ideas of several people. See now, this come down to the principles for me. We see words from TV shows like "doh" get into a dictionary yet a culture of our own can not be accepted as logical? What if I were to say that "Arnesia is a fictionary land made up by children from Debate Camp and the rest from here on in is the creation"? Is that acceptable? I don't understand the logic.

Thank you for being so overly kind and understanding of things that you obviously don't understand. I'm SO glad that you did! If you haven't noticed, that's sarcasm. I'm sick of being polite with you when you can't even return the same curtesy. Is it impossible for you to have a frank discussion and not be rude? I would really appreciate an apology. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, think about what you said. It's unfortunate that I'm not the only one who has to deal with this. Livinontop13 05:03, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

So you deleted my page because you considered it vandalism. One little page where all I was doing was expressing my thoughts. You deleted it and now I can't get it back. Can you at least send the information back to me? And as for your little joke about being bigger than Spider-man... Why don't you try and be bigger than Spider-man, Ogreat King of Wikipedia.

Canon EOS Rebel K2

Mike Rosoft,

I, the creator of an valid article entitle "Canon EOS Rebel K2," would like to know why this page was deleted. I understand that the information a specific user edited it with seemed rather on the advertising side than a factual article that it should be, but rather than deleting it for reasons of "Blatant spam", you may have suggested that it be edited to become more factual, as one user has done. The fact that you delete it rather than doing this infuriates me. But the damage is done, and all I can do is ask that if I were to recreate this article and rewrite the information to become more factual, would it be deleted because of previous information? I will act based on the reply of this comment.

Need help!

Can you please look at this? I've been learning about Wikipedia a great deal and thank you for your earlier help, but user:Bastique continues to attack and say false things about me, and this is causing me great concern. One Elephant went out to play... 17:53, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Leaving Wikipedia

Regarding Allegations of Israeli Apartheid and earlier items with MiddleEastern/Okedem, I feel sorry I stepped in now. User:Slimvirgin has used it as an excuse to make false accusations that I am someone I not, apparently because I reported her abusive friend user:Bastique for his attacks upon me.

I'm quitting Wikipedia, there's no point in remaining if this is how administrators behave. I'm sorry that my earlier view of administrators as helpful individuals turned out to be a disgustingly poor misjudgement, and most of them are abusive jerks like Slimvirgin, Bastique, and Jersey Devil. One Elephant went out to play... 19:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Additionally, the admin Crum375 removed my earlier call for help from your talk page. I wonder how many other abusive "friends" you have around here.

It was nice of you to leave me a message, but the facts are plain, and I left a friendly worded note originally. I didn't at the time even know of the WP:OFFICE policy or who "Danny" account was, I thought it was just another user. Now, I'm being hounded and harassed and attacked constantly, and the abusive Bastique has recruited equally abusive admins to go after me, using as "evidence" the fact that I saw and noted on another page also mentioned at the admins noticeboard to accuse me of being someone I'm not. This is ridiculous, and the sort of thing I didn't think was supposed to go on. In short, it's a damn witch hunt, and I'm the accused witch. I'm not going to stick around, because I know how this ends, with the crazy psychos getting out their torches and pitchforks and my head on a spit on top of a campfire. I consider this a pretty good indication Wikipedia's not worth contributing to. One Elephant went out to play... 19:30, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

It's nice that you continue to message, but really, I have seen enough. Slimvirgin is deliberately lying about me and making false accusations that I'm someone I'm not, and the only reasoning I can see for this is either that he/she has some contact with that page, or else that he/she just has an axe to grind. Regardless, I've no desire to stick around and be the latest trophy for some abusive individual. Since it's obvious that all they are going to do is attacking me, consider Wikipedia shortened by one contributor who would have been very happy to improve the encyclopedia because your "friends" the administrators are a bunch of abusive jerks, and that's that. One Elephant went out to play... 19:38, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Unjustified tags/deletions (Amaf)

Please refrain from deleting the amaf images, it is a well known group which HAS significance.

And My Amazing Friends

Minorityracer has recreated the A.M.A.F. article again with the above title. The Kinslayer 11:08, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Notability

Yes the article has been recreated, and deleted. Apparently because it is not 'notable'. I shall defend that with the following. The wikipedia page on notability states "Notable is defined as "worthy of being noted"[1][2] or "attracting notice".[3]" Now 'worthy of being noted' is clearly subjective, and in my view the clan is being prejudiced against for being associated with computer gaming. I feel that any computer gaming group is worthy of being noted. We have a large member base, nearly 100 students represent us in clan and inter college games. The clan HAS been featured in several external sources, namely news sources such as our uni's newsletter, clan rankings etc. These are NOT trivial sources, but are rather valued very highly for amaf. These would have been linked to, had the mods not had a nervous twitch on the 'delete' button. In addition to this, the amaf site was NOT a promotion/personal website, rather it was simply a wikipedia entry which every large group seems to have in recent years. We have our own webpage, and would never use wikipedia for personal promotion. Even if it were a promotion, wikipedia is not a 'paper database', the amaf page is merely addding a couple of bytes of data to wikipedia's abundant supply. And the article was certainly NOT vandalism, as such it is not clear why a so called 'Anti Vandalism Unit' would have anything to do with our entry. If you would be so kind as to reinstate our page, we would be obliged to link to our sources.

Seven Samurai

I was browsing recent edits, and I noticed the edit summary for Seven Samurai. I went to the page to revert it, found you had already done it and warned user IP 74.38.189.10, and moved on. Later I saw their IP address again, and checked. I noticed you gave them a final warning, and I wanted to tell you that they had modified the page again. I just thought I'd tell you. They are currently vandalasing other articles, or so it says in their contribution section. I didn't know what I should do, so I decided telling you was best.

Re: Sports Trainer page

Mike, Firstly i do not appreciate you redirecting the sports trainer page to athletic trainer without evening discussing the idea. Secondly there are several and multiple differences between the two occupations and having the same article just does not cut it in my opinion. The article was originally created and then deleted (only deleted because it was created by a banned user), and before that several users had an indepth and detailed discussion about merging the two pages and because of all the differences the decision not to merge was made, how dare you not even discuss it and just go ahead and change it straight away. Just because you are an administrator does not give you the right to do that. I put a lot of time and effort into creating that page and for you to just redirect without even discussing it is very upsetting. I will be changing the page back to how it was if you want to discuss the possibility of merging the two article then please do so, but do not redirect without even discussing it. (Bradleigh 01:53, 18 March 2007 (UTC))

FYI the "banned user" that Bradles 01 refers to is himself. He was banned indefinitely for abusive sock puppetry, mostly centred round this article, and the article was deleted four times. I thought you might like to know that there's a lot of history! andy 09:24, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/208.48.232.11 and also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Fishfish69 - both seems to me to be a nonsence editing. -jkb- 11:36, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Repeated vandalism

A few of us are having trouble keeping the Everton FC page (and it's asociated pages) free of mischief and vandalism...how do you go about locking it so that new & unregistered users can't add their garbage to it? It's getting dull removed abuse every morning.

I was a bit surprised to learn that you are an admin. Please act as such in the future and review changes before you revert them. Thanks! --217.235.237.189

my AIV report

Thanks for correcting my report for User:58.169.188.195 on WP:AIV just now. Seems to be a problem with my monobook.js! --Smalljim 13:09, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Well-meaning user

I was in the process of protecting this at WP:PT when you restored it. I assumed that it was re-created again. —David Levy 10:22, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I thought there was no harm in allowing the joke to go through; it's the April Fool's day, after all. - Mike Rosoft 10:24, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

While this certainly isn't on the level of article vandalism, I don't believe that a particular date on the calendar gives users the right to treat Wikipedia as a humor website. I try not to step on too many toes, but I see no reason not to nip these things in the bud when they're caught at that stage. Certainly, there's no need to tolerate prank pages that are re-created after sysops delete them. Just think of the resources that are wasted dealing with this nonsense every year. —David Levy 10:33, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Is it just me, or does tht sound like not bothering to buy a Christmas tree or have peole ove for gft-giving because the needes are such a hassle after the tree sheds, or all those people are sure to give you the lu and what a mess indeed wuld be created by all that wasted wrapping paper and rampant cnsumerism. Bely aughter might be conidered a waste of breath

Out of 365 days, there should be one where levity can be allowed to have its place. As a wise old Vulcan said, "the more complex the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play". Big brains play here. Surely we can tlerate stuff made by said minds who spend the remainder of those 364 days working without pay to make this an interesting place to visit? Arcayne 14:45, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm Jewish. Like Christmas, April Fools' Day is not a universal observance (but this is a worldwide website). We wouldn't tolerate such tomfoolery on December 28, so why should we tolerate it (let alone condone or encourage it) today?

Some people have the unmitigated audacity to actually attempt to use the encyclopedia today. Those who prefer nonsense can look elsewhere. —David Levy 17:06, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I think the reason that it is April Fool;s Day, and not Christmas, Passover or Respect for the Aged Day (Japan, Sep 19) and that the day is specifically known for practical jokes, and not introducing 7-foot flora into the living room. We don't have to add nonsense, but certainly we can let our hair down. We aren't Conservapedia (where, apparently, no one can edit). Arcayne 19:26, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Again, this is a worldwide website, and April Fools' Day is not a worldwide observance. We don't tolerate such pranks on the Day of the Holy Innocents (the aforementioned December 28), so why should we tolerate them on April 1? —David Levy 19:44, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Why did you delete my Texas Department of Criminal Justice article and restore it like 1 sec later?

Why ?? plz respond on my talk page Species2112 17:58, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Why Am I Blocked

Hang on a minute, I am being punnished for the stupidity of a person who shares my IP, how is that fair! 82.27.28.190 15:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: Jan Zajic

The problem is that fair use is no longer accepted for newly uploaded images (but I am not sure with this). Jan Zajic was not publicly known before his act and thus there are very few photos of him, this should be the only one that can be obtained. He became famous after his suicide (self-immolation). I think that picture was created on order by some small photographic studio (as was usual in these times) by him or his family or it is a part of picture taken from school almanac (public domain). It is impossible to find the author, create new picture or find a replacement. If you know how to write a fair-use that would be accepted please feel free to do it, it would be a pitty loose this picture. ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 13:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

are you syaing that commons images can be uploaded to that site and be used on wikipedia without uploading on wp? Honda Pilot

WP:AFC

When rejecting an article, please use the {{afc t}} and {{afc b}} templates, or just delete the entry altogether if it's vandalism. The instructions for this are at the top of WP:AFC. Patstuart^talk·edits 16:15, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I did remove the two entries altogether, and posted notices to that extent; one of them was an advertisement, the other patent nonsense. If I should have handled the case differently, I'll be glad to learn. - Mike Rosoft 16:18, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

The only things that should be removed are copyvios, personal attacks, or patent nonsense. Otherwise, it's best to keep the text, and use the templates: see Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/Templates. Patstuart^talk·edits 16:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

And if I remove an entry, should I do as I did previously, or should I remove it altogether, even with the heading? - Mike Rosoft 16:24, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

If it's a copyvio, keep the heading, and use the templates to decline. Otherwise, you can do it either way; I just remove the whole thing; I see no point in feeding the trolls. Patstuart^talk·edits 16:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

RE: Boosh images and FUP

Hi, thanks for the advice - I'll get to fixing that right away. However, how do I link to an en.wikipedia article from a commons file? In Image:Boosh.jpg I've put [[:en:Noel Fielding]] etc as this is the best I can do - is there any chance you could let me know how to do it properly. Thanks, ...adam... ^{(talk • contributions)} 16:28, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Also, which license is the "I release the picture for unrestricted use"? Thanks again ...adam... ^{(talk • contributions)} 16:36, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I had a message saying he'd release it, I just don't know how to make it official. I've messaged him to email the address you gave me saying "I release this unreservedly". That ok? ...adam... ^{(talk • contributions)} 16:44, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Reversion Question

Why did you revert the change I made to my talk page? Why are such changes a concern of yours? --VnTruth 12:15, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Zoo tycoon 3

Hey guy I hear what you are saying, and I understand your point. However, here at Wikipedia, what you are doing is considered vandalism. The article has been proposed for deletion and will most likely be deleted within the next day or two. Take care. Shoessss 13:00, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

• The notice at the top of the article says: "Please improve the article if possible, but the article must not be blanked, and this notice must not be removed, until the discussion is closed." It's because the other editors contributing to the deletion discussion need to see the original article, not your opinion about it. - Mike Rosoft 13:03, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
• I have protected the article to prevent you from editing it. For the last time, I am not defending the creator, I am defending the proper procedures. - Mike Rosoft 13:07, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Mike. He was driving me nuts :-). Have a great day!Shoessss 13:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

You twit, read the article before you revert edits. Power-mad jerks like you are ruining this place
