==San Antonio Park Article==
you deleted my san antonio park article but the reason why is unclear. The park does in fact exist and the page listed the address. It might have appeared false because my wikipedia editing skills are fairly novice, however I can assure you the park does exist.

You do wonderful work, and although we've never met face to face there are many people at Wikipedia who care very much about you. All the best, Durova30823:43, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
God... I'm really sorry about this. Words cannot express how much sympathy and condolences I have for you and your family. I just wish there was more I could do to help you out in your troubled times. (X! · talk) · @047 · 00:08, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There aren't words. I don't have a way to say it. I wish I knew you a bit better. When you look, you'll find us all here... wishing we had some way to do more to help and support you in your heartbreak. FT2(Talk | email)00:09, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh my gosh... I'm so sorry for what happened... Loosing a loved one is not easy in any way. You will be in my prayers as well. I just feel so bad about this. I'll take care of the NewPages backlog for you while you're gone man, so you don't worry about it. My deepest sympathies go out to you.
I'm not going to pretend I know how you're feeling, but I was on the verge of tears just reading your userpage. I'm so very sorry for your loss. — neuro(talk)22:51, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I only found out about this terrible situation recently, but please let me add my sincere condolences to those above. A terrible situation and my deepest sympathy both to you and your families. Manning (talk) 02:00, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Taking it from someone who has epilepsy in the family
I feel really really bad. My mother has epilepsy pretty bad and I feel really sorry that your fiancee had to go so soon. I know how hard it is to lose people you love so much. I've lost two grandfathers on the same side of the family in 14 years. This sucks for you man. Listen, a good Wikibreak would help, get things solved personally, and decide what's better for you. Always look at the road ahead when the time comes. Coming from someone who's been through it. Good luck man.Mitch32(Want help?See here!)23:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh man, i'm so, so sorry.
Dragonfly, I just got told what happened. I can't believe I was only talking with you about this the other night on IRC. I am devastated that someone I know and respect is going through the pain which you are. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to you on the loss of the most precious thing in your life; it hurts, i've been there before.
I want you to know that I, and many many other Wikipedians will be here for you if you need to talk, get things off your chest, whatever.
Stay strong, and take as long as you need, my friend. We'll be waiting.
I don't even know why I'm writing this. I used to be Purplefeltangel on here, many years ago, and I'm sure you don't remember me but I remember you. All I can say is I'm sorry. I'm not normally one to do things like this but I wanted to reach out to you. There are no words, but my thoughts are with you. --✶♏ݣ01:09, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Take your time coming back
First off, I'd like to say how deeply sorry about your loss. I also think that nobody expects you to come back right away from this. Take your time coming back; your top priority should be you and taking care of yourself. We got plenty of people who are able to pick up where you left off. For instance, I can start bigtime on that NewPages backlog so all your effort doesn't go to waste. I'd pick up on other stuff, but I would need admin tools for that (and even though sometimes I ponder adminship, I don't think I'd get it or do that good of a job myself with them).
More interesting, though, would be a little competition to try to create the smallest article that would pass FA review. I think for this purpose the title should be excluded from its length. This is not entirely silly idea, if thrown to the pedants who lurk in WP namespace.
I did manage to shorten it (to "Is it?") but beyond, say, a single character (e.g. an up arrow pointing at the title) it does become pretty pointless. I hope you took AGF as I do do some heavy and, I hope, valuable work on WP in all kinds of domains and I just wanted a bit of harmless light relief.
I never "added" things about him being in the games Hearts of Iron II and III. That was added before me. I simply felt that removing it due to "whoever added this is a fucking child" and "fuck off you child" were not very good reasons. Upon thinking about it, however, I agree that it is a bad idea to have it in the article. --Mrdie (talk) 21:51, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please explain this deletion
Hello. We posted a Wikipedia article for a non-profit organization called "Lone Star Holidays, Inc" and it was up for a month. Then suddenly today it was deleted. I am curious as to why this happened. We used the Texas Articles of Incorporation, postings on other sites, and the Company Bylaws are references. Thank you for any answer you can provide.
I don't know what happened, but it seems from your Talk page that you recently lost someone. Very sorry to hear that.
I do not have too much information about him. He is very known in Polish community as a founder of the first Polish parishes in New England since 1887. The information about him is from the publication issued by the St. Joseph Parishe in Webster, MA. It was the first parish founded by Fr. Chalupka.
If you need more information you can get them from the pastor of St. Joseph parish in Webster.--WlaKom (talk) 20:53, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think that I need not convince you. If you accept a thousands of athletes and musicians who are known to a small group of people, and briefly, but the person who in the nineteenth century led to the construction of many churches in New England is for you not notable, can be regarded as discrimination. So please revert your deletion of this article.--WlaKom (talk) 21:32, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Let me offer an outside opinion here. The main thing that we look for in articles is sources to document the person in question. It may be that there are additional sources to document Chałupka; would they be easy to find? If someone provides good sources on a topic, that is essentially a free pass to creating the article. But we generally do not accept new biographical articles if no sources are apparent.
By the way, to demonstrate my ignorance about the topic, let me ask about the content of the article. Were there really no Catholic parishes at all in New England until the 1880s? That seems surprising to me, given the length of time that the area had been settled up to then. I must be misunderstanding something. — Carl (CBM · talk) 21:43, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The article creator was a bit careless: he established the first Polish parish in the area. I tend to agree that sources about this person are rather scarce, for wikipedia inclusion criteria. I was looking for "resurrecting" the page, but failed to find enough info. - Altenmann >t23:12, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This type of discussion is, without question. You expressing an opinion about the article which has not seen. Further discussions in this way is treated as religious discrimination.--WlaKom (talk) 22:07, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I did look at the deleted article text, which is what led to my question. I assure you there is no religious aspect here; we attempt to apply the same standards to all biographies, religious or not. — Carl (CBM · talk) 23:02, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
we attempt to apply the same standards to all biographies, religious or not.
See my third line.
To answer:
Were there really no Catholic parishes at all in New England until the 1880s?
I recommend to read more about Polish immigrants in New England. You will find some of them on Google. Right now I am working on one of them.--WlaKom (talk) 23:40, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Altenmann clarified that what the article meant is that Chałupka founded the first Polish parish in New England. While this was certainly important for Polish Catholics in New England, it is not the same sort of feat as founding the first parish at all in an area. I recommend that you continue working on the article in private, find some additional reliable sources on Chałupka, and then resubmit the article. If you run into any questions about what sort of sources are considered reliable, please feel free to ask me at User talk:CBM. — Carl (CBM · talk) 23:45, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
find some additional reliable sources on Chałupka
Did you read the sources listed in the article? Did you find this sources not reliable? If yes, what is wrong in the sources?
So, are you going to recover this article, or not?--WlaKom (talk) 00:52, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The only source listed on the article is "The 150'th Anniversary of Polish-American Pastoral Ministry, Webster, Massachusetts (September, 11, 2005)", which I assume refers to an article in the Polish-American Journal. I have not managed to find a copy of this (my library does not seem to subscribe to this newspaper). Could you quote from it to show exactly what it says about Chalupka? Based on the title, it appears that the article is not primarily about Chalupka.
What I am trying to say is that, in order to decisively establish that Franciszek Chalupka himself has been the subject of reliable sources, the article needs to identify some sources that are directly about him. I attempted to find such sources but did not succeed; I tried both various web searches and the Lexis-Nexis database. Is there a published biography about Chalupka that I did not manage to find? — Carl (CBM · talk) 01:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
My fiancée died last month. I do not want to have any more arguments on my talk page
It is not the right answer I expecting from you. You are the one who remove my article. So, the last time I ask you. Are you going to revert that article?--WlaKom (talk) 07:49, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The problem with this edit is that it restored previous vandalism, with these sections as obvious problems:
Hayes's pirate past - dubious claims about Hayes contributions to South Park and the Simpsons.
Pre 1983 Hayes - neither Phil Lynott, Bono, Van Morrison nor Daniel O'Donnell were ever in a band called Napoleons' Wig and the paragraphs about legal dispute with the Hitler estate looks like something that might be found at Uncyclopedia.
The 2fm show - some sections of this were vandalised, such as the name of the Mariah Carey single, the section about Jim Jims' behaviour every second Tuesday, the name of the U2 single and radios being distributed to prisons and psychiatric hospitals.
My apology I thought your edit was adding the detail about the song charting - it's been a long day already - was chasing a reference for that. Dan arndt (talk) 04:06, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for your fiancee coma
I was wondering why you deleted/moved my two files! Did I miss a warning?
You have explained both cases clearly, but you may not judge an unfinished article
The catalan gunpowder it appears in the 120 volumes ESPASA Enciclopedia (WIKI pretends to substitute paper Enciclopediae!!)
I did not enter the reference but I will
The Catalan celestina, Dr. Garcia Valdecasas (Dr. n law & Dean of Bologna University) has proven the author was fron Aragon
for the rest the books that backup the theory are referred and available in libraries
I think I have corrected all the issues...
They were unfinished... But on the other hand...
Do you think anyone can consider being my own work, the fact of publishing works from other people already published in encyclopediae or research books 5, 30 or 80 years ago? (80 years ago I wasn't even born)
The only thing I shouldn't do is to draw my own conclusions, but this is not the case, for I just publish assertions from other people's works already published in other books or encyclopediae
I've copied the references from worldcat.org

Hello, in February 2008 i created a scientific page about Fluorescent Solar Collectors a new type of solar panels.
The article being too scientific was not published. But you proposed to move it to a userspace so i could consult and edit it. I did not have the time sine 2008 to do it but now i would like to carry on the work on it .
Could you re-install this article so i can work on it - I have also several colaborators for several industry which want to help me. Can you re-instate the article in a way that other can work on it too.
I would be willing to restore the article and move it into your userspace so you can consult it, if you want. DS (talk) 16:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Hello DragonflySixtyseven: Thanks for the edits to the draft article I'm working on about Wikipedia administrators. You definitely understand better than I do about Wikipedia's administrators. The clarifications are very insightful and a much better reading of the source-- although in some parts of your edits I think you went way beyond the source and included an insider's understanding. Nonetheless, I appreciate it and this article is giving me a better understanding as to what Wikipedia's administrators are all about. Varks Spira (talk) 23:52, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
DYK for William of Enckenvoirt
On September 26, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article William of Enckenvoirt, which you recently nominated. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page (here's how) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
W/re the gallery in the "distant relations" section of Family of Barack Obama, each relationship cited a WP:RS. However, the reason I'm pinging your talkpage is actually not to debate this issue privately (I already know what you would argue in this regard, after all) but instead to question your coming to the article and deleting only part of this type of charting. Why did you not remove the chart illustrating the relationship between Obama and Queen Elizabeth II? Since a substantial portion of the population of the US could have a similar chart drawn, why do you believe this chart in this instance passes muster?
Ps - If you could await the result of the discussion here --> Talk:Family of Barack Obama#Gallery of distant relationships and chart of Obama's relationship to the House of Windsor -- before removing the chart (or both charts, for that matter), I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! :^)↜Just M E here , now00:50, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, I see now you had deleted both. My bad. (I'd nevertheless still appreciate it if you could hold off a while until the discussion of the charts on the talkpage commences, though.)↜Just M E here , now00:55, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, hadn't thought about sorting like that. Yesterday while at the back end of the queue I found two deleted pages that were still listed. I had also seen someone else complain about an admin deleting pages but forgetting to mark them as patrolled first but the admin wasn't working from new pages. There still needs to be a better system to see which pages have been marked as patrolled other than through new pages.

OK having just done a quick check they do now vanish from the list. It just dawned on me which talk pages you were talking about. I didn't get to those from the new pages but from another editors contributions. They had tagged several pages for deletion but hadn't checked to see if there was a good version to go back to so I checked their other taggings.

Here is a copy of my book which is sellling at Barnes and Noble _ I am just furious
I am very upset about the fact that one of your "editors" deleted me because he said that my work has been "self published." IT IS NOT. Casa de Snapdragon is a mainstreem, tradtional publishing company that operates the same way that all of the major houses do. Spartz has said that my books are only sold on Amazon. They are not! They are also sold in Barnes and Noble and Hastings and all of the major book stores around the world.
My book, "A Dance in the Woods" which tells of the healing time after the death of my daughter while living in a small village in Italy is a true story and has been critically acclaimaed by Santosh Kumar, who also mentnions my name in his own Wik article.
I have written for years for major magazines and have been featured in Chicken Soup for the Soul twice. If you visit my own web-site at www.jbstillwater.com, you will learn much about me and my work. Also, try visiting my publisher at www.casadesnapdragon.com. I can tell you that he is not happy being labeled as a self publisher. Casa has just submitted a book to the Pulitizer Committee and is about to publish another Pulitizer nominee, Charles Ades Fishman for his book on the holocaust, "The Death Mazurka".
If you still refuse to produce my article, then by all means, please delete it off google. It is embarrassing to say the least and could truly hurt my 40 year career in writing.
Below is the cut and paste from Barnes and Noble. I can show you many more of the book stores but that is your job to find. And I can tell you that it is all verifiable. Just google me at Janet K. Brennan

Synopsis
Come in, enjoy a cup of coffee, and sit a spell with Harriet Murphy as she regales you with her tales of family, life, and love in the early 1900's in the former gold mining town of Old Pine near Lake Tahoe in Northern California. This is a period in U.S. history of great mechanical and cultural inventions as well as a time for women attempting to gain their well deserved right to vote.
Her tales revolve around a woman living alone in the hills of the Sierra Nevada with her horse, Pager, and a myriad of other wonderful and colorful characters. Her humble abode is the log cabin that her father built for her family soon after he came across the country in the great gold rush of 1849. Although he never struck it rich in the mines, he found it a unique, yet ideal, place to live and care for his wife and daughter, Henrietta.

February 22, 2009: Boy oh boy...Oprah should get this one.. I could not wait to turn the pages to read what
happens next. This book is pure joy filled with laughter, adventure, tears, shock, awe and even a few mysterious spirits of the Tahoe. I loved the time period ( turn of the centry) and each character woven into the stories have their unique "self" that Janet Brennan carries throughout consistently.
Each of the chapters holds a unique story that is somewhat resolved at the end, yet, the stories are all interconnected and flow wonderfully. Janet K. Brennan PLEEEEEZE don't make me wait too long for a sequel...Peggie Devan
Review for Harriet Murphy; a Little Bit of Something - CarrieAnn Thunell

January 30, 2009: How truly wonderful to find such down-to-earth stories about a woman of great strength of character! A feminist for her time, this gal weathaers many storms of indifference and judgmentalism as she goes about the business of surviving as she sees best fit. It is with some relief that I have finally found a story teller who can spin a tale that warms the heart father than degrades it as so many of the modern writers do! It is much better to have one's spirit lifted, and perhaps even enlightened, rather thn dragged through the mud of depravity that fat woo many authors find necessary.
CarrieAnn Thunell - Editor in Chief, Nisqualey Delta Review
Pardon me for butting in: does not the publisher's website say that Janet K. Brennan is the editor-in-chief, here? And is it therefore not a bit strange to say, "I can tell you that he [the publisher] is not happy being labeled as a self publisher," when that "publisher" is either Arthur Brennan or Janet K. Brennan? Drmies (talk) 23:38, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Janet K. Brennan's wikipedia page was wrongly removed and the statements made by the voting members are, at the very least, slanderous. Casa de Snapdragon is NOT a self publishing company. We are an independent publishing company and we currently have 7 authors (5 more coming under contract this year) who would be extremely upset at the suggestion that they are self-published. Before branding companies or individuals with that label, you might want to investigate your own wikipedia articles which define self publishing and independent publishers. If your "definition" of self publishing was applied to any other company, the Chicken Soup books, for example, would have been branded as self published as the editor and the owner of the publishing company are one and the same. And there are many authors in the same boat. Casa de Snapdragon's books, if you had taken the time to look, are in the Ingram distribution database and are available at various booksellers worldwide and Amazon happens to be only one. One of the places you can verify Casa de Snapdragon's distribution reach is by going to http://www.bookfinder.com and put Casa de Snapdragon in the search box or even Janet K. Brennan. I assure you that more than Amazon will appear either way.

Managing Editor
Casa de Snapdragon Publishing
These are the facts:
Yes, you are right, I do co-own CDS Publishing, but we are not a self-publisher. As in the case of Alice Seebold (The Lovely Bones) when her husband published her book. And as is the case for so many publications including Chicken Soup for the Soul. Here is the difference, a self publisher can only get their books into Amazon at best. Barnes and Noble will not touch them and they can never go into major distribution companies like Ingram or Taylor. The obvious reason being they can not guarentee supply. That is the single biggest difference between self publishing and mainstream publishing, such as Casa de Snapdragon. One of our authors was previously nominated for a Pulitizer Prize for his amazing work in "Death Mazurka" He would not be too happy to think that people are saying that CDS is a self publisher. We also have several other wonderful and talented authors (visit the site) who are not related to us in any way and hail from all corner of the earth. Labeling them as self published authors would be highly insulting and unwarranted to them, as well.
I will tell you that what really angered me was that when I checked to see the reason why they deleted my bio was that "I was a mere self published author who only sells her books on Amazon." My books are in every major bookstore around the world. See the link below. CDS is not my only publisher. I have been published by Rodale Books, Chicken Soup for the Soul, Cyberwit, HOrse and Tiger Press, and many others as I have been a writer all of my life!!!
Hi DragonflySixtyseven.
There is a page in wikipedia called Jacob Sheskin.
He is known mainly by his last name - Prof. Sheskin.
That's why there is a disambiguation.
I would like to put the disambiguation back.
(By the way, I don't know you, but I hope you will know no more sorrow.)
