Rhiannon Thomas

Hello. I noticed you deleted Rhiannon Thomas. If you did, please recreate it. Try the link below. Also, in RJD, I assume the R stands for Ryan. What does the J and the D stand for?

Could you possibly tell me why this has been recreated? I'm about to put it up for Afd but would like to understand the background. Thanks. --Kleinzach 01:50, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Is there any time limit? --Kleinzach 02:31, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

No, for creation of an article after deletion following a prod. --Kleinzach 02:33, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I didn't know that. --Kleinzach 02:36, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi.dear admin , I cannot login to my account. and a message pops up that says:

What's the matter?would you help me.by the way i recently have made a monobook page that one of my friends told me it may be because of that. but I still have a problem logging in. please help me. my username is bbadree. 85.9.98.132 (talk) 15:41, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

I have replied at User talk:85.9.98.132. - Rjd0060 (talk) 15:46, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

I did it earlier , but it does not work.do you want my userword and password to do it yourself? 85.9.98.132 (talk) 15:56, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

No, you will have to do it on your own computer. Also, never *ever* give your password out. Let me try deleting the page. Try again now. - Rjd0060 (talk) 15:58, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

no .it doesn't work!.85.9.98.132 (talk) 16:05, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

The only thing I could suggest now is that you change the time and date of your computer to something beyond June 6, 2008, if it isn't already. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:25, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Ulster Defence Regiment

Hi, may I now formally ask for you to lift the page protection at Ulster Defence Regiment? Discussion has died down, the disputed section has been rewritten and the warring editors appear to have desisted. I'm on vacation at the moment and I'd like to do some work on the artilce before returning to my own employment on Monday. I'd be grateful - thank you. The Thunderer (talk) 03:47, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. Fingers crossed. The Thunderer (talk) 21:12, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm now getting intervention from here. I'd be interested in your opinion on the subject matter because I personally can't see the logic behind this chap's actions, which I think are well enough intentioned.The Thunderer (talk) 15:11, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Intervention it is an admin removing images inline with policy. Once again you are involved in an edit war, with an admin now, who removed images from your article. I seem to recal that you said you would not engage in any more edit wars so as to avoid a block for edit warring, but yet again you are, and the article is only unprotected. God forbid an editor who trys to change this article to anything that YOU dont like doesnt matter if you are violating policy just a case of I put it there and it stays. BigDunc^Talk 17:18, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

I am not getting involved in this dispute. - Rjd0060 (talk) 17:26, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Firstly: I didn't know the guy was an admin to start with. When I reverted his removal of the images I posted a discussion message on his talk page. Secondly I discussed the mantter with him politely then thirdly realised that the problem could be overcome by using Crown Copyright in stead of Album Cover Rationale. You can clearly see I posted a message here asking for assistance and opinion and kept the other admin up to date as well with what I was doing. So no, I didn't engage in edit warring. I see from your prompt interjection however BigDunc that you're sitting there like a vulture waiting for the first mistake I make. Let me advise you that I have made sometrhing like 700 edits on Wikipedia since the UDR page was protected, just over 100 since the page was unprotected, of which 38 have been on the Ulster Defence Regiment page. I have had no difficulties with anyone in that period until now. Of course I realise that none of this carries any weight with you at all. Being polite, asking for assistance and generally playing the game by the rules and making 750 useful edits doesn't seem to suit your agenda but one little problem and you're right in there. Go ahead then, fill your boots, follow me around like a dog and see how much it affects me. The Thunderer (talk) 17:37, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

No one has challenged any of your edits and when they do, guess what, you editwar, 2 reversions in succession is an edit war. And dont flatter yourself in to thinking that I am sitting like a vulture waiting to correct your mistakes. I could have removed the images when I saw them but left them as I knew as soon as I did the tired old accusations would have came flooding out and as I said I just couldn't be arsed to deal with the nonsense. BigDunc^Talk 17:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Rjd0060, not withstanding the above I would still appreciate your comments on how I handled the issue of the images. I believe I have sorted it out properly by changing the tags to Crown Copyright and as the admin who removed the images hasn't intervened again I can only assume he accepts that. what do you think? The Thunderer (talk) 17:39, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Once I realised the other editor was an admin I engaged him/her in dialogue and searched for a way round the issue. I discovered that Crown Copyright allowed the use of their published material for educational purposes. I then changed the tags to that of Crown Copyright, non-free and after informing the admin of that, reverted the images back and removed their orphan status. I have not heard from that admin since so can only assume I've done the right thing. If it subsequently transpires I haven't and he/she removes them again then I shall have to follow the policy to protest their removal, find the correct tagging and ask to include them in the article again. Do you think anything I've done in this instance has been improper? I've loaded quite a few images in the last few days but most of them have been simpler "own image-public domain" stuff or where copyright has expired. This is rather a new experience for me. The Thunderer (talk) 17:54, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

May I draw your attention t0 this please? The Thunderer (talk) 17:06, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

question...

I left a message for the person who tagged Darold W. Killmer for deletion. Can I ask you whether you were aware the nominator didn't see fit to comply with the deletion policies' recommendations that good faith nominators advise article creators when they make a nominations? If you weren't aware can I ask you whether you would still have completed the deletion if you had been aware?

Thanks! Geo Swan (talk) 20:11, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Televisionary

Hi, you just deleted my page "televisionary". I'm not questioning your reason for this, i was just wondering if you could let me have a copy of the page so i can re-look at it. Since it's been deleted i can't see it anywhere. you can contact me at harrynrobinson@hotmail.com. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dwightwitherspoon (talk • contribs) 08:28, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Problem on a page you protected.

You protected the page Wikipedia:Contact_us/Article_problem/Vandalism. I noticed an error on the page, which I've noted on its talkpage here, however no action has been taken yet, so I figured I'd contact you, as the admin who locked it up. (I'm not an admin, so I can't just fix it myself.) It appears that a chunk of text went missing with this edit from June 24. Thanks for your attention. Yilloslime (t) 20:32, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

The problem I see--and maybe I'm just missing something is:

“ Fix the article yourself

Wikipedia is a wiki, so you can edit the content yourself — you don't even need to create an account! We use the term "revert" to refer to

Go to the article and click edit this page near the top. Never edited before? Read the Introduction to Wikipedia.

If the offending content does not appear when you try to edit, then it has already been fixed. In that case, you don't need to do anything, even to "let us know". Force your Web browser to reload the page with Ctrl-F5, shift-Reload or whatever your browser uses.

”

The "We use the "revert" to refer to" seems be dangling. We use it to refer to...what? I'm not sure what it's supposed to say, but the current version seem very wrong to me, but maybe I'm just missing something. What do you think? Yilloslime (t) 21:46, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Much better! Looks great now. thanks for looking into this. Yilloslime (t) 22:19, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Burnt Oak Records Deletion

Given that Wikipedia features article on the members of parliament for Yukon, it seems strange that anyone would suggest the deletion of the 'Burnt Oak Records' page in lieu of them being one of the foremost indie labels responsible for the recent surge of musical output in southern Ontario. Moreover: they've received extensive coverage from the music press in Central Canada, and two of their artists (Elbow Beach Surf Club & Richard Laviolette) are apparently noteworthy enough to have pages on Wikipedia created by different parties. Is there any way we can reverse this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.197.156 (talk) 02:49, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
