== [[Pixelh8]] == |
|||
I have noticed you have nominated the [[Pixelh8]] article for deletion, the article has been edited and now contains links to both his [[CNN]] interview and his [[BBC]] as well as links so several other UK and International Magazine articles about Pixelh8. |
|||
It also contains a link to [[Nerdapalooza]] and [[Huw Stephens]] BBC Radio 1 DJ who play Pixelh8's Music. |

We hope you will have a look? |

Speedy Delete notice
Why did you delete Acute (medical)?
I see you just deleted the "Acute" article, which is a definition I was planning to reference in a medical history article (it is linked to from 'Chronic').
- Is "Acute" deprecated or was there another reason for killing that page? Would appreciate more info about this as acute vs chronic would be a useful distinction for my purpose. Pointillist (talk) 00:59, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Acute (medical) was deleted by another admin because it was a redirect to another deleted page, Acute (medicine). I deleted Acute (medicine) because it was an expired prod -- the article was simply a dictionary definition, had already been moved to wiktionary, and so another user requested the deletion.
- You can always link to the wiktionary article in your medical history article. Use [[wikt:acute|acute]] as your link.
- Hope that helps!--Fabrictramp (talk) 13:35, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated - Pointillist (talk) 23:32, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Apologies!
Re: edits to John Taylor (hymn writer)
- It's no biggie. I intended to get back to that page this evening. I will add refs for what I have entered thus far, but I'm still trying to find more info on this guy. Marchije (talk) 10:58, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Former Fat Boys speedy deletion
Re: 20:29, 26 March 2008 Fabrictramp (Talk | contribs) deleted "Former Fat Boys" (Speedy deleted per (CSD G4), was a copy of material previously deleted per XfD. using TW)
I'm a little confused. I rewrote the article from the bottom up and it bears little resemblance to what was once there (I only contributed to the old article). It meets the notability requirements set forth in WPMusic and I believe I cited everything appropriately.
What can I do from here? Thanks! Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.
~Jeff / mcchrisfan
- This is exactly the right place to post this kind of question.
- Yes, Former Fat Boys was completely rewritten, but the issue was notability, and I don't see that the new article shows this any better than the old article. You said that the article meets WP:MUSIC -- which part of Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles do you think it meets? Please enlighten me, and then I can tell you what the next step is. Hope that helps! --Fabrictramp (talk) 22:00, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I think it certainly meets 1, 4, 9, and 7 in that list in WPMusic. It doesn't necessarily meet all of the qualifications in WPMusic, but as probably one of the most notable bands in the Nerdcore hip hop genre the certainly deserve inclusion. I especially think they're notable in general and in relation to that article with the release of the documentary film that heavily features them and several other artists in the [[Nerdcore hip hop}} genre. The documentary is another page I'm working on, as it has yet to have one, but has received national press in Newsweek and the New York Times recently. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcchrisfan (talk • contribs) 22:13, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not convinced it meets number 1, but that's probably in a gray area. There isn't a hint of a claim in the article of meeting 4 or 7, and unless you think a TurboTax music contest is a major competition, 9 is out also.
- If the Newsweek and NY Times articles have better info on the group (more than passing mentions), the article may be able to be salvaged. I'll be happy to restore the article to a subpage of your userspace where you can work on it until it's ready for prime time. When you think it's ready to move back to mainspace, it would be a good idea to have an admin give it a onceover first; just put {{helpme}} on your talk page with the request, and someone will be along shortly to help.
- Ok, sounds good. Thanks. I'll try and see what I can do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcchrisfan (talk • contribs) 23:53, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

If it dosent meet the speedy criteria, then restore it ;) Fallen Angel 00:40, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Definitely speediable. I'll close the AfD then. :)--Fabrictramp (talk) 00:43, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Goblin Chronicles (proposed deletion)
- I believe this entry is note worthy as it is a published piece of work which has been positively reveiwed on serveral comic book news sites. I've added links to third-party reviews of The Goblin Chronicles by popular and reputable comic book news sites to the article. The Goblin Chronicles is also the first "all-ages" fantasy genre comic published by Ape Entertainment, which has been publishing comic book for over 5 years. If there is anything else you would suggest to make the article note worthy, please let me know. Thanks! Trollx (talk) 05:51, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Comment on User:BirgitteSB RfA
I'm sorry, I forgot to add the stats for her alternate account User:BirgitteSB-prod, which has quite a lot of her prod and AfD contributions to the nomination. Tim Vickers (talk) 20:06, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for bringing this to my attention. :) --Fabrictramp (talk) 20:55, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
A little AWB help
Hello! Can you please tell me how can I add articles present here on my article work list? Thanks! --SMS Talk 03:49, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Sure! Launch AWB, and over on the left side you'll see "Make from", and it probably says "Category" as the default. In the text box below that, type in "Disambiguation" (without the quotes), press the "Make List" button, and prepare to wait a while, as this will load a LOT of pages. FWIW, this is timing out on my old, slow computer, so the category may be too large. (I see it has over 95,000 pages in it.) Choosing a smaller category, such as "Airport disambiguation" is working just fine.
- If you also want every page in every subcategory (like Airport disambiguation, etc), change Category in the dropdown box to Category (recursive). Be forewarned that this can load a LOT of pages, because it will load all the subcategories of the subcategories, etc.
- Hope that helped -- let me know if you have more questions.--Fabrictramp (talk) 13:44, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Re: Jay Bezel
Sorry about that - looked in the history and must have looked straight through the PROD tag. Thanks for the heads up Fritzpoll (talk) 00:12, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- No problem -- I've missed it once or twice myself. :)--Fabrictramp (talk) 00:13, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
From Your Righteousness
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dc/Nuvola_apps_important_yellow.svg/48px-Nuvola_apps_important_yellow.svg.png)
Another editor has added the {{prod}}
template to the article From Your Righteousness, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}}
template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 15:01, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- Works for me -- all I did is slap maintenance tags on it. The real question is "why am I talking to a bot?" :) --Fabrictramp (talk) 15:19, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm Back
I'm back from my spring break. Whats going on? Dustitalk to me 16:19, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- Just fine here, if a bit hectic this week. Hope you had a good break.--Fabrictramp (talk) 17:09, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- I had a great break, that is until I got back and saw this. Does it ever end? Dustitalk to me 17:20, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- Checking in....how's today going for you? Dustitalk to me 16:47, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
- Still crazy, as it will be all week. I've got two people out taking care of personal stuff, so the workload is piling on me. Work does get in the way of so much fun stuff. ;-) --Fabrictramp (talk) 21:10, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hopefully today can be a productive day. What do you think of my recent edits? Dustitalk to me 17:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

(outdent) I'm a little confused by this one. --Fabrictramp (talk) 17:42, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- When I made this edit, I didnt see the {{db-blanked}} , I just thought the page was blanked by a vandal (notice I didn't even send a warning). The tag says the author blanked the page, however after I did rollback, he went back and edited again. We can't retag it for {{db-blanked}} because he edited after I reverted the blanking he did. I almost want to say tag it for spam, but it's not exactly advertising. What do you think? I know, I went a different route here than you expected.....Dustitalk to me 17:50, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Definitely doesn't meet G11. You might want to tag the article for wikifying and categories, and it could probably use a rewrite. (And it might be a good idea to always double check before hitting "save page". *grin*)--Fabrictramp (talk) 17:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Done....double check before save?
Done. :)

- Do you agree with this one? Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Piedras Blancas Motel? Dustitalk to me 18:10, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- You keep trying to get me to comment on deletions, and I keep saying that's a matter for your admin coach. Nice try at sucking me in, though! :) --Fabrictramp (talk) 19:45, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Can't blame me for trying. :) Dustitalk to me 20:55, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Awarding Barnstar

The Barnstar of Good Humor | |
Aprils fools day was a blast. Loads of users lightened up to have good old fashion fun. I want to thank you for taking part in editing this page in particular and even though I may not know you, embrace the same talk pages, or even edit with you in the near future, I'd like to award you this Barnstar for making Wikipedia a fun environment in which to contribute. Until next year. :) SynergeticMaggot (talk) 13:30, 2 April 2008 (UTC) |
Search
I don't know. I think I just searched for the name and the word "review". That's at least where I normally start. Search engines tend to like me :-) Hobit (talk) 18:04, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'll try adding "review" next time, and think Hobit-like thoughts. Maybe the search engine will like me, too. :) Thanks! --Fabrictramp (talk) 23:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I had the hangon tag on there, i have made all the corrections, can you please reinstate my page?--Sarahmckem (talk) 04:35, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- The page was deleted by another admin as a blatant copyright infringement of http://www.simonbruce.com/bio.html, so no, I can't reinstate it. (nor can any other admin) The page has been protected against recreation because it's been deleted as a copyvio twice. If you want to recreate it, I'd suggest making a version at a subpage of your user page. When you think it's ready to go to mainspace, put {{helpme}} on your talk page and have an admin review it and move it for you. --Fabrictramp (talk) 15:12, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I am aware of that, and contacted the admin that it was not a copywrite infringe because I am the owner and author of the http://www.simonbruce.com/bio.html in the first place. I rewrote the bio so it would be different. I will do the helpme now I guess. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarahmckem (talk • contribs) 15:22, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
oh, and i did create a subpage on my userpage, but i cant seem to get anyone to come check it.--Sarahmckem (talk) 15:31, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- It's only been a couple of minutes, and you need to add what your question is below the "helpme" template.--Fabrictramp (talk) 15:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
No I created the subpage yesterday, not just this minute. sorry I'm new at this. --Sarahmckem (talk) 15:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry I wasn't clear -- it had only been a couple of minutes since you put up the "helpme" template. I see someone has already been by to help you, but because you still haven't said below the helpme template what your question is, they can't help you. Add your question to your talk page and you'll get some help. (Be sure to include a link to your subpage).--Fabrictramp (talk) 16:02, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- And also, pay close attention to what Orangemike has written on your talk page. People take conflict of interest very seriously around here.--Fabrictramp (talk) 16:05, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
I have noticed you have nominated the Pixelh8 article for deletion, the article has been edited and now contains links to both his CNN interview and his BBC as well as links so several other UK and International Magazine articles about Pixelh8. It also contains a link to Nerdapalooza and Huw Stephens BBC Radio 1 DJ who play Pixelh8's Music. We hope you will have a look?
