== Re: In a moment of (not stupidity) I blocked Hersfold for 24 hours. ==

Wafulz just be more careful next time. You're blessed that no Admins got involved otherwise you could have been blocked for a while. It wasn't a moment of stupidity. Maybe you were tired, or maybe you just made a mistake, but you're not stupid! Don't bag on yourself, we all make mistakes!

Revision as of 16:59, 14 May 2008

  • Sign your posts with four tildes (for me, typing ~~~~ would create "Wafulz 19:14 July 4, 2024 (UTC)").
  • Be civil.
  • I'm not very active lately, so it may take me a while to reply to your messages.
IF I HAVE DELETED YOUR ARTICLE, READ THIS FIRST:
  1. Be specific. Use the exact name of the article. Provide a link.
  2. Be brief. An essay on my talk page is likely to confuse me. Stick to the point.
  3. Read through Wikipedia:Why was my page deleted?
  4. Don't shoot the messenger. A lot my deletions are procedural. If I've deleted an article, don't take it personally.

Some progress on the article

Hey Wafulz it seems we may actually get some progress on the Technocracy articles, so I was wondering if you'd like to contribute on the talk page, as you're experienced by now about the issues involved. --Hibernian (talk) 10:54, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Deletion???

why did u delete the Strauss Creameries article??? There are 1000s of company articles on wikipedia, from DOW to GE etc etc... it is perfectly legit to list a company... they are not so big as DOW, but they do now have one of biggest organic milk companys in the west, and were perhaps the first.......

i wrote the article mainly, i have no connection to that company or anyone in it... it was not an advertisement, its just their practices sound nice really, if u list what they do on their farm it sounds pretty nice u know... but a lot of the big MNC wikipedia pages do read like advertisements, and list only positive things... that wasnt fairplay what u did, it wasnt given equal treatment as so many other companies... and now i have to waste a bunch of my time pulling it back after hours of work writing it... please try spending ur time adding material and not taking it off... i see u work on a lot of pages with people no one has ever heard of, and so many of them could be deleted u know...

thanks...

GA Review of group (mathematics)

Hi,

thanks for your review. The issues you raised have now been fixed. Could you have a look, please? Thank you,

Jakob.scholbach (talk) 18:05, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll have a look tonight.-Wafulz (talk) 18:06, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your help please...

I requested deletion of Saeed Ali Al-Farha Al-Ghamdi last June, an article for which I was the sole author.

I have encountered more information about him, and would like to review the earlier content, to see if it can meaningfully be combined with the new material. Could you userify the original article to User:Geo Swan/Guantana/Review/Saeed Ali Al-Farha Al-Ghamdi?

Thanks! Geo Swan (talk) 18:17, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done.-Wafulz (talk) 18:20, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Biewer

Hello Wafulz, This is Gayle Pruett. I had talked with you about the deletion of the Biewer Terrier history before. That's not my problem. The lady that deleted all the information about the BTCA in Nov last year, IP No# 67.183.163.223 is now signed in as dogMommy, and has added information that is advertising for the BBCI club and the picture she has added is advertisment for her dogs. There is only one club that has been accepted as the mother club for the Biewer in the USA and that is the BTCA, Inc. She is changing information and adding their clubs, personal views. I believe this information should be removed. Thank you Gayle

Someone's already done it, but so you know, you can do it yourself too.-Wafulz (talk) 12:11, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

biewer

Thank You Wafulz. I believe it was better that someone with authority did it. I think the link they have for the BBCI standard should be removed, as it is just an advertising tool for them. The standard was created by one of 150 clubs in Germany. It is basically the same standard listed by the IBC. Thank You for your time. Gayle


question about a user using his main page for a mock up article on Technocracy movement

Is that a good idea..? or should it be done that way? This user is making a site on his user page of a mock copy of what he says is a future article. Is this not confusing or would be for people stumbling on it from google or elsewhere ? I added the disclaimer on the top of the users mock up. Was that a good idea ? Should not this mock article be done in a sand box instead of a page that could until I put the disclaimer on it be misconstrued for a real wiki article? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Firebladed/newtincdraft User:Firebladed/newtincdraft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Please act and inform accordingly as to appropriateness and policy. I will mention this to a couple other people for feed back.

This is what I added at the top... This is not a real wikipedia article. It is a mock up or practice article. In no way should it be confused for an actual wikipedia article although this subject herein may google up as such. This disclaimer is made in case there is any confusion on this point. This editing project is an attempt to write a better sourced article elsewhere. It is a draft and no doubt contains multiple errors which are in the process of being worked out here in sandbox form. skip sievert (talk) 00:19, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is allowed.-Wafulz (talk) 12:18, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

* [User:Lagrandebanquesucre]: Confirmed sockpuppet of [User:Karmaisking]

You posted a flag that this user has been blocked. I don't think that is the case, which I think may be my fault as I posted a sockpuppet flag which contained the notice that user has been blocked. If you are an admin, I would be grateful if you could arrange for the block (or let me know what to do).--Gregalton (talk) 02:24, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oops. Blocked.-Wafulz (talk) 12:18, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hal Gill

On the Hal Gill Page-I am trying to find a more reliable source (newspaper), but this is what Pittsburgh Penguins radio announcers and fans are calling him. I dont see any sources on other hockey player pages for nicknames. I see no source for Malkin's "Geno". Seems a bit like a double standard.24.3.125.134 (talk) 18:47, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The source was there. Somebody broke the code in the infobox.-Wafulz (talk) 20:22, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

These disputes with Badagani have nothing to do with WikiSkeptic. He dragged me and accused unrelated matters. I'll post the same thing at ANI. Take a look at these. Thanks.--Appletrees (talk) 19:53, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for caring the case. I really appreciate your action and time. I wish there is no such incident happening.--Appletrees (talk) 21:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

'just one user'

Block him then and see what happens. Please review the article history. You will see several 'users' making these edits. A couple of days ago he used several accounts in one day (see Real Radio edit history) Looking at the contributions of these accounts will prove insightful. I hope you're willing to keep an eye on the page if you refuse to protect it. Bridies (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that was my mistake. I'm going to see what happens if I block all the socks and autoblock their IPs.-Wafulz (talk) 21:13, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Poly

Hi Wafulz, Just to say I have watching gratefully, very pleased that there are other voices responding. I haven't been commenting because I suspect that known quantities like me would make things worse, not better, at least in the short term. But I would be happy to get involved anytime you think it would be helpful, and may do so anyway, especially if particular issues about content and references come up that I could help with. Anyway, thanks! --Slp1 (talk) 21:08, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think you've been extraordinarily patient with this article. I'm glad to help out.-Wafulz (talk) 01:31, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
