User talk:OlYeller21

Welcome! Feel free to leave comments, critiques, etc., below. Unless you specifically request that I answer on your talk page, I'll be answering here, as I prefer to keep as much of the conversation in one place as possible. I'm very new to Wikipedia so if I do something wrong, please let me know and give me as much information as possible so that I can make sure that I don't make the same mistake again. Thanks!

Please add all new material to the bottom of the page or click here.

When? :)

I don't think you meant WP:NOTNOW in AfD... maybe you meant WP:CRYSTAL? Gigs (talk)

Personal Attack

I was personally attacked yesterday at Signs (Bloc Party song) by a user who I won't name. It sort of hurt my feelings so I'm going to take a short break. I'm not crying about it or anything but I realized that if Wikipedia editing effects my life outside of Wikipedia, it's probably time for a break. Just an FYI for anyone who may be looking for me. OlYeller^Talktome 14:18, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Now another editor is saying that I have a personal vendetta against an article. I couldn't care less about a single article being deleted or not. I need more break time. OlYeller^Talktome 03:27, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey, OlYeller, you shouldn't take the personal attacks at Talk:Signs (Bloc Party song) too seriously. All I see is a user who is frustrated that his article was tagged for deletion. I've been attacked before; see here and here. I wasn't offended either of those times because I could see how frustration of the users when their articles were deleted. Maybe I have a thick skin. Anyways, you shouldn't let anything on Wikipedia get too personal because it's just not worth it. If editing the deletion areas of Wikipedia is too stressful, I would recommend writing on something random that you have never heard of before (see Wikipedia:Recent changes article requests for ideas), or just take a short wikibreak.

Delboy deletion

How can a band be notable without the members themselves being notable? A band is it's members.--DunkinDonutBoy (talk) 05:45, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

The same way that not every soldier in an army is notable. Is an army not its members? OlYeller^Talktome 13:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Matt Pawlowski Deletion

Hello. I was wondering why the heck you would put this article up for deletion? Why would you do such a thing? Seriously? It has credible sources. Everything's legit. Care to explain? (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 02:56, 19 May 2009 (UTC).

I explained in the AfD and on your talk page (see here). OlYeller^Talktome 03:06, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Added another message. Sorry if my previous response was snappy. I didn't mean for it to be that way. Shadowjams (talk) 20:22, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Just so you know...

[1] - you're replying to a year-old thread. Maybe you knew, but I reckon a new section might be appropriate. Fritzpoll (talk) 15:03, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Lol, touche. I wonder what the best way to reevaluate this proposed guideline would be. Any ideas? OlYeller^Talktome 15:09, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

New section, think about a rewrite. Then advertise... Fritzpoll (talk) 15:22, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

It might even go over better if it's presented by an ARS member as opposed to a non-member (if all the us vs them beliefs are true). OlYeller^Talktome 15:24, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Hmm. Not sure how well that will go down. Fritzpoll (talk) 15:42, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

With the supporters or non-supporters of the current ARS? OlYeller^Talktome 15:44, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I meant that your findings that the six you checked were notable regardless of the star indicated that the star was generally being given to notable people and not just willy-nilly. Like in the British honors system, some of the recipients may not be well known outside of their field. Drawn Some (talk) 11:25, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Ya but you forgot that I mentioned that only 10% of the recipients have Wiki articles. That doesn't imply that they aren't notable but it's a pretty good indication that at the VERY least, 50% of them are not. OlYeller^Talktome 13:44, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Can we bring this article back to life now? There is now another news source. Before you just needed one more news source and here it is: http://www.tulsapeople-digital.com/tulsapeople/200906/?u1=texterity 208.191.26.53 (talk) 18:06, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
