==''Signpost'' updated for November 17, 2008 and before.==

Because the ''Signpost'' hasn't been sent in a while, to save space, I've condensed all seven issues that were not sent into '''[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Archives/2008/Skipped|this archive]]'''. Only the three issues from November are below.

Manson page vandalism

At the discussion page of Charles Manson, I've just left a note headed "Vandalism." I'm bringing it to the attention of you and one or two other editors who have countered vandalism of the article.JohnBonaccorsi 23:40, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CUSTOM-FIT

Sorry, I tried to justify CUSTOM-FIT but I forgot to put the signature. The word represents a concept for a new manufacturing system (it is not only a machine, it is an overall concept: from capturing data to developing the product). We feel that we are not selling nothing we are just disseminating this way of manufacturing. --Customfite 12:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Need help!

Hello! I hope you are feeling fine. I would like to request a small favour from you. As you are an admin (and I am not), I would like you to move (or delete) this template to this template. Notice that these two templates have similar contents in them and the latter has the more accurate term of football. Thank you for your help and contact me when you are done (or fail to do for whatever reasons!) with regards to this. Thanks! --Siva1979Talk to me 16:16, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ritz Carlton Enniskerry

I am struggling to understand why you deleted the page for the Ritz Carlton in Enniskerry, The hotel is notable and is a major employer in the town as well as being a major change in the landscape and reputation of a small area like Enniskerry. Also you have left other Ritz Carltons and deleted the one from wicklow, why is this. I have no connection to the hotel group but the hotel is becoming well known in Irish political circles and does merit note. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rorser (talkcontribs) 00:13, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vinea soft drink article deletion

Please explain the reason! Nothing worse than clicking a link for Vinea soft drink in the "soft drinks by countries" wiki page only to be transfered to some ficticious scifi planet article. Stonufka 10:54, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The subject has been solved and you correctly deleted dead link which

was created when an admin deleted the article which in turns was previously reedited by an user with the better way/idea about linking to the page. So all just a missunderstanding on my part before I was able to solve the puzzle. Thank you for your time. Stonufka 09:31, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

yup, taken care of...

Need for German-English translation

Hey there, I seen that you are a native German speaker and I wonder whether you can please help me with translating the following sentence to English, objectively as possible: "Mögen wir zehnmal von Juden abstammen und ich im Princip noch so sehr für Gleichberechtigung der Hebräer sein, im socialen Leben sind mir Christen lieber ..."

Sorry for being unclear; this is re: a comment that was left on my talk page

I've never seen attributions to the original language article on translated article pages; how do I attribute it? I don't see anything about it on the main translation page.

Concerning:Günter Menges

I saw that you recently deleted the above article. Could you please explain why you deleted it? I'm trying to help out the user that created it, so if you would let me know, I could help explain it to him. Maybe if it wasn't libelous, could you possibly provide me with a copy on my talk page? That way I could set it up in a subpage for him, so he could work on it further until it's ready. Thanks for the help! Icestorm815 (talk) 18:35, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for doing that. Hopefully he'll be able to fix it up. I'll be sure to help him if he has any more questions. Icestorm815 (talk) 19:59, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A request for your consideration regarding CAT:AOTR

...My guinea pigs and the "A"s through "K"s having felt this message was OK to go forward with (or at least not complained bitterly to me about it :) ), today it's the turn of the "L"s through "O"s! I'm hoping that more of you chaps/chapettes will point to their own criteria instead of mine :)... it's flattering but a bit scary! :) Also, you may want to check back to the table periodically, someone later than you in the alphabet may have come up with a nifty new idea. ++Lar: t/c 00:02, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

userfied

Hi. Mmm I see what you mean and why it was tagged for deletion. Personally I think its no different to all of the other thousands of smaller school in the US and UK on wikipedia but I agree it needs assertion of notability. Perhaps Ekyaw could develop it sometime and try again adding some more info. Thanks that was a good idea regards ♦ Dr. Blofeld ♦ Talk? 16:35, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sir Louis Mbanefo Article Deletion

You deleted an article I placed on Sir Louis Mbanefo, even though I had placed a Hang-on and had stated in the Talk page that I was the author of the web-based articles on The Blog subliminalcodesintext and www.helium.com which copyright you claim I violated. i am very concerned about this on largely on grounds of principle and would ask that you clarify how this can be resolved forthwith. Thanks very much- Edward C Keazor Seal67 (talk) 16:06, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would equally invite you to visit the website where the original article which copyright I am supposed to have violated is contained. I repeat I am the author and in simple proof, I have left you a message as the latest article. I look forward to hearing from you urgently http://subliminalcodesintext.blogspot.com/ Seal67 (talk) 17:49, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Project Rumble

I noticed you deleted Project Rumble while i was currently building it up. I think it should be brought back, As it was not intended to be a test page, And i was working on building it up to be equal to the content in other Wikipedia articles. And the article was also not a hoax, Info on it can be found on universalorlando.com, screamscape.com, orlandorocks.com and universalignited.com, I will post these sources if the page is brought back. Please restore the page.--Snowman Guy (talk) 17:58, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

answered on users talk-page

Sir Louis Mbanefo: Proof

I note that in response to my query as to deletion of this article, you asked me for proof. Well, if you read my last talk on this page, I referred you to the very website where the original article was i.e My Blog, where I had left you a very personal message titled "Sir Louis Mbanefo- Wikipedia" http://subliminalcodesintext.blogspot.com/. Can I ask is there any more conclusive proof, did you not see my last talk item. Well to make my point further I am going to amend the original article with a huge message, approved for publication on Wikipedia, will that finally satisfy you? Also can I say that whilst I appreciate the effort you are making in general, it does seem a little excessive that you are once again asking me for proof, in this instance since i asked you to refer to the page in my previous talk on this page and you obviously didn't or at least have not said that you are dissatisfied with the proof provided. Please can you respond urgently thanks. Seal67 (talk) 04:27, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aliya-Jasmine Sovani

Hi there. I am an experienced editor who informally adopted the inexperienced user Jamierush. The version you recently nominated for speedy deletion was not just a recreation of the previous one. This user worked hard on the Aliya-Jasmine Sovani article (not that that in itself is a reason to keep), consulted me extensively via MSN IM, and was genuinely interested in creating an article that meets Wikipedia standards. I started out by having her prove notability to me, and then made sure she provided enough references. I helped develop a tone that seemed much less fancruft-y than the previous version that was deleted. While I can see how some people could still think that there is too little notability, we have gathered enough ammo that I think we deserve a second AfD debate. Please let me know your thoughts on this. Thanks! Tanthalas39 (talk) 21:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

answered on user talk-page; article restored.
  • Since I left this, I learned that the author is essentially an agent for the subject of the article. Sigh. I'm going to abstain from discussion; feel free to nominate for AfD (or even speedy). Tanthalas39 (talk) 16:46, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perlat Musta deletion

Hello, in the interest of not biting the n00bs, would you mind if we undeleted this article? It's not really an A7, because being a goalkeeper in a national soccer team for many years and being one of the most "famous" footballers of his country does constitute a plausible claim to notability, don't you think? Just needs sourcing and other cleanup, of course. Cheers, Fut.Perf. 08:55, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind. It seems the user isn't particularly keen on responding to constructive advice, so let's keep it out of the way until they show some more constructive initiative. Fut.Perf. 08:32, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Germany Invitation

Project Rumble

Thanks for restoring the article for me to work on. I think i'm almost done with it, and i've added at least 8 rferences for the content in it. Could you look it over to make sure it's OK to become an official Wikipedia page? thanks.--Snowman Guy (talk) 22:38, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Entitlement Theory cleanup

Hello,

I see that a long time ago (June 2005) you placed the 'cleanup-context' tag on Entitlement_Theory. I have tried to clean up and expand the article, as well as make the intro more understandable. As the person who requested it in the first place, what do you think? Does the intro have enough context to be clear to people who haven't read Nozick's book? If not I'm open to suggestions. Thanks! --Culix (talk) 18:13, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wie geht's Lectonar? A while back you deleted this article, and I'm putting it back. Do you have a record of what you got rid of? I would like it. You put down 'blatant advertising' as a reason. It's quite an important company though (actually it's a lobby group). If you have a record, can you please post it on my talk page? Vielen Dank. :) Wikidea 16:03, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why?

I think that it is appallingly unfair that you deleted my band's page (Harrowdown). Due to me being a bit of a novice at these sorts of things, it took me 2 hours. This is meant to be a resource for free information. Yeah right.

I just wanted to give you a heads-up that an article you had previously deleted (blatant advertising by an SPA) has been recreated, presumably by the same individual. -- Scjessey (talk) 14:44, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

China North International Shooting Range

there used to be an article called "China North International Shooting Range", but you deleted it back in 2007. I thought it would be a useful article to have as people who live in or visit Beijing may want to learn about the sport shooting options in Beijing, specifically this place.

If it was deleted due to pricing, then ok, we could remove the pricing.....

Any chance of un-deleting? --Chris (talk) 06:37, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

Hi! I created a page and it was deleted :( uh, I thought it was a good page which could help mainly women. It gives information on a popular site which helps women on their body image which I believe is important especially to those who have been considering surgery and illegal injections which is many. It's important to let them know this is a reputable company which can really help them on a high level. It was my 1st time writing a wiki so I apologize if it wasn't to flavorful. I mainly thought I would post it due to the fact that my sister died due to surgery gone wrong (complications) amongst that subject. As well as I have used it and many general friends and it has opened a doorway to a actual alternative to body enhancement. Please write back. Thank you and blessed be.

Waffle Ass

Just curious on why my article on Waffle Ass was deleated and I was sent a message that it is inapropriate while Wikipedia has article on Anal sex. It was brought to my attention by "DarkHorse?" that it must be verifiable. So I typed in Donkey Punch in the search bar and hit go in Wikipedia and low and behold, there is an Article on Donkey punch. Now I am no kamura sutra wizard but I am pretty sure that donkey punch is,in fact, a made up term for a sexual act that doesn't exist and even states that in the article by saying (The term is not strictly defined or well-documented; at least one source attests to the move being "made up"). Now when I wrote my article I put in there that it is possible for this to be false but some people believe it is real.

So I guess I am just curious, does Waffle Ass not exist because you say it doesn't or is there a Wikipedia board of trustees that sits down and agrees on what is real or fake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sardoc8401 (talkcontribs) 10:33, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wayne Madden

Hi, would like to know why this article was deleted? It says it does not recognize why exactly Wayne is notable but he has done work in Leith FM (his radio programmes address is www.myspace.com/noiseupthursdays) and has interviewed people of note including members of Guns N Roses. He has also interviewed a lot of musicians and writes for a site called Daily Music Guide. You can find some of his work there. As a freelance journalist wayne needs press like Wikipedia to alert people to who he is, and just allow potential employers and people who apprichate his work, to learn a bit more about him. If we post some articles and reviews from his own work on the Wikipedia page could the article remain? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.41.79.154 (talk) 08:30, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bitte um Vermittlung

Hallo Lectonar
vor wenigen Stunden habe ich in einigen Artikeln der englischen Wiki diverse Korrekturen vorgenommen, die zum Teil von Benutzer User:Wiggy! revertiert wurden. Meine Änderungen waren wirklich nur gut gemeint und dienten zur Beseitigung von in meinen Augen elementaren Fehlern. Ich würde dies auch gerne dem betreffenden User mitteilen, aber meine Englischkenntnisse sind ziemlich lausig. Deshalb wende ich mich an Dich mit der Bitte um Vermittlung. Gegenstand des Ganzen sind die beiden Artikel Sports club und Berliner FC Dynamo. Nach dem einzigen Kommentar von Wiggy! zu urteilen, hält er meine Änderungen für das Werk eines gewissen Kay Körner. Ich bin Mitglied der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia und habe dort unter dem Benutzernamen Sportfreak66 [3] einen eigenen Account. Mit der Person KK habe ich nichts zu tun, weiß aber wohl um dessen „Vorliebe“ für die SV Dynamo sowie seinen daraus inspirierten Beiträgen. (Nicht zuletzt deswegen weiß ich jetzt nicht, ob ich sauer sein soll oder nicht. Ich habe mir mit meinem Schulenglisch einen abgekrampft, um einen seriösen Beitrag abzuliefern und dann werde ich mit so einem Propagandisten in eine Ecke gestellt.;))
Jedenfalls möchte ich Dir meine Beweggründe für meine Änderungen erläutern, wäre schön., wenn Du diese dem User Wiggy! weiterleiten könntest:

  • Sportvereinigung Dynamo
    • war, wie der Name schon sagt, kein Sportclub sondern ein Verband von mehreren Sportclubs bzw. Sportgemeinschaften mit Sportclub-Charakter (z. B. SC Dynamo Berlin, SG Dynamo Zinnwald, SG Dynamo Luckenwalde etc.), in deren Sektionen verschiedene Sportarten betrieben wurden
    • Seit 1966 fungieren die ehemaligen SC-Sektionen der SV Dynamo als selbstständige Fußballclubs (Berliner FC Dynamo, SG Dynamo Dresden).
    • Seit Auflösung der SVD existieren einige der ehemaligen SC-Sektionen als selbstständige Sportclubs bzw. Sportvereine (z. B. Eisbären Berlin - Eishockey / SSV Altenberg - Biathlon, Bobsport, Rennschlittensport / 1. Luckenwalder Sportclub – Judo etc.).
    • Das Sportforum Hohenschönhausen (war bereits im Artikel enthalten) war Heimstätte des SC Dynamo Berlin.
    • Erich Milke war von 1953 bis 1989 Vorsitzender der SV Dynamo, aber mit Sicherheit nicht mehr bei der Auflösung der SV im Jahre 1990 (schließlich trat er bereits im „Wendeherbst“ 1989 von sämtlichen politischen Ämtern zurück und befand sich zudem ab Dezember 1989 in U-Haft.)

Außerdem: Wenn man in diesem Artikel unter der Rubrik "Aufgelöste Sportclubs bzw. Sportorganisationen" die SV Dynamo aufführt, dann muss zwangsläufig auch ein Hinweis auf die Armeesportvereinigung Vorwärts mit rein.

  • Berliner FC Dynamo
    • wird in der Regel als BFC Dynamo bezeichnet, aber nicht als Dynamo Berlin (im Osten Deutschlands wird gemeinhin sogar das "Dynamo" weggelassen, was wahrscheinlich für einen Berliner aus dem Westteil der Stadt zur Verwechslung mit den dort ansässigen BFC Preussen oder BFC Viktoria 1889 führen würde)
    • Die Bezeichnung "BFC Dynamo Berlin" ist einfach falsch, da der Name Berlin bereits in dem Kürzel BFC enthalten ist (das gleiche gilt übrigens auch für den Begriff "Hertha BSC Berlin", was bereits auf der betreffenden Diskussionsseite von einem anderen Leser angemerkt wurde)
    • Sogenannte Fanfreundschaften zwischen Anhängern des BFC mit denen anderer Fußballvereine existieren nicht. Es mag vereinzelt lose Kontakte bzw. Bündnisse auf Ultra- oder Hooligan-Ebene geben, aber damit hat es sich schon. (Ich persönlich kenne BFCler, deren Freundinnen eingefleischte Anhänger vom 1. FC Union Berlin sind, aber damit lässt sich ja schließlich die im Tenor eher feindselige Einstellung zwischen beiden Lagern auch nicht wegdiskutieren.) Schlussendlich lässt sagen, dass Fans des BFC Dynamo besonders leidenschaftliche Rivalitäten zu den Fans der traditionellen EX-DDR Klubs pflegen (z. B. SG Dynamo Dresden, 1. FC Magdeburg, 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig, FC Sachsen Leipzig, FC Hansa Rostock, 1. FC Union Berlin). Gegen die übrigen in Berlin ansässigen Fußballvereine, wie Türkiyemspor Berlin, Tennis Borussia Berlin oder Hertha BSC gibt es naturgemäß ebenfalls eine gewisse Abneigung. (Und überhaupt, von einer Fanfreundschaft zu den Herthanern zu sprechen – wie in der aktuellen Artikelversion aufgeführt - spottet jeder Beschreibung. Wenn überhaupt, dann existierte Anfang der neunziger Jahre mal eine lose Fanfreundschaft zwischen Hertha BSC und den Erzrivalen von Union Berlin).

So Lectonar, das war soweit alles. Wie gesagt, ich wäre Dir dankbar, wenn Du User:Wiggy! zumindest überzeugen könntest, dass meine Änderungen in den beiden Artikeln ausschließlich der Verbesserung der Gleichen dienen sollten und einige Passagen in der jetzigen Form nicht korrekt sind.
Schon mal im Voraus herzlichen Dank für Deine Mühe und noch ein Schönes WE.

You need to be aware that the fellow who is asking you to do this is a user with a long history of abusive bevaviour here at en:Wikipedia and at de:Wikipedia that led to his being banned at both sites. You can pick up on some of his history at User:Fox53 or you can go back in the history of Berliner FC Dynamo to get a handle on his approach. He's strongly POV and uncooperative, so be mindful of dealing with him. If he was anything approaching objective and civil he wouldn't be here asking you to do his editing for him. Heads up. Wiggy!
