Hi![]() You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. I wanted to take the time to thank you for your help on this item on the Wendy Doniger article, to which I responded on my own talk page. I especially appreciate your having taken the time to post a note on my talk page with such a clear explanation. It was very helpful. Here are two notes I made on the same issue, one on my talk page thanking you there, and another I had posted on the Doniger discussion page a day earlier: From my talk page to you: Thank you that was very instructive and I appreciate your help in making that edit. Only to keep the record clear it was one sentence that you quite correctly deleted from my longer contribution, which long contribution was repeatedly bulk deleted rather than incisively corrected as you have done. Thanks for getting involved and for helping me. Meetoohelp (talk) 15:53, 26 October 2009 (UTC) From the Doniger discussion page to the other editors of that page: Thanks for the concern you show for the quality of this article. If there is a full sentence in the article that is found to be a copy of a full sentence from another page please delete it singly. On the other hand, to write an article about Doniger that contained none of the information on her cv would be difficult and of course unnecessary. This article is short not only on facts about Doniger, but also on Doniger's opinions, and conversely long on other peoples opinions. It should conform to what other bios of living person look like as to the relative space given to acts of the subjects, and then to criticism of that person. I think it would be helpful to look at articles about similar people, and I would suggest it should look something like Bart Ehrmans, whose work is similar and who attracts controversy for related reasons. In contrast to higher quality articles in Wikipedia, this Doniger page has the appearance of a blog spot. I suggest we editors should move to a bio with one pithy quote of criticism, and one pithy rebuttal quote, the remainder being a description of her work. There are plenty of internet forums for blogging and opinions and this article appears to have inappropriately achieved the character of those. Meetoohelp (talk) 15:03, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks again. Meetoohelp (talk) 16:14, 26 October 2009 (UTC) Could you restore the history of Charlie Zelenoff or delete it as a G4? Thanks! :-) Theleftorium 19:05, 21 October 2009 (UTC) CW's absenceHi MRG, Seeing as CW's going to be busy for a month, would you like me to try and work more in-depth on WP:CP?

Zoinks, not only was the PROD'd article unrelated to the actual topic - it, well ... sucked. I at least made a more-than-reasonable stub out of it and moved it back to articlespace. Hope it's a little better now. Some of those Minnesota college article are in sad shape. Thanks for undeleting for me. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:13, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
Quick question re: deletion procedureDBZROCKS submitted this AfD, but then went ahead before the AfD was closed and wiped the article out, leaving a redirect. I know that we're told to be bold, but given that he's the one who submitted it for deletion, isn't that a little sudden? Or is that normal? Thanks for any insight you can provide. -moritheilTalk 07:29, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Taking bets :)The two proposed guidelines will be eventually promoted with a sliver of voters, and two months later will be suddenly contested by a dozen people who didn't participate until then. ;) MLauba (talk) 10:49, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Suspected sockpuppet of Pr3st0nAs you were involved in the case of blocked user Pr3st0n, I thought I should bring to your attention this message: User talk:93gregsonl2#New to Wikipedia from new user FriargateFairy. Reference is made to the death of Pr3st0n which makes me suspect sockpuppetry, in view of the previous hoax on this subject. To support my suspicion, I've just discovered Gareth Forrest's MySpace page has the URL http://www.myspace.com/friargate-fairy . The page User:Pr3st0n/MSN strongly suggests that Pr3st0n's real name is Gareth Forrest. I've never been involved with a sockpuppetry case, so I'm not sure if that's sufficient evidence to file a formal investigation, or whether we should wait a bit longer to see what FriargateFairy does next. -- Dr Greg talk 19:56, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for your rapid response, CactusWriter. -- Dr Greg talk 22:08, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
"Copyleft"?I have one article watchlisted that I removed after 7 days on CP, was recreated and the source now states "Copyleft by soandso". Re-list pending clarification or leave it? MLauba (talk) 08:51, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of 'Chuggington Episode List'I (largely) produced this page (either logged in or via an IP address) as the episodes came and went on BBC Iplayer. There is no complete list on the web, ergo it cannot therefore be referenced. Contesting Deletion of "Victoria Riskin" Article on WikipediaHi, Moonriddengirl (Deletion Administrator): I've been made aware that my recently posted article on Victoria Riskin was removed/deleted from Wikipedia website and I am contacting you to "contest deletion" as stated in Wiki instructions, as I don't understand why the posting was deleted due to "blatant copyright infringement." Here is the thread below to explain action take on my article: A page with this title has previously been deleted. If you are creating a new page with different content, please continue. If you are recreating a page similar to the previously deleted page, or are unsure, please first contact the deleting administrator using the information provided below. 17:46, 2 October 2009 Moonriddengirl (talk | contribs) deleted "Victoria Riskin" (Listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems for over seven days) Let me give you some background: I currently work in press/communications at the Writers Guild of America, West (WGAW) in Los Angeles. Former WGAW President/member/writer Victoria Riskin herself contacted me a few months ago asking, as a favor, if I could please post a profile page for her on Wikipedia, so I agreed to help her out. As I am new to Wiki and have never posted in article before, I tried my best to post an article on Vicki following Wiki's format/rules/guidelines, etc. Please note that ALL content for the article was NOT borrowed from other sources/websites but rather article content was repurposed/pulled from from Vicki's own personal bio that she supplied to me for Wiki use. Once the article was posted, I received notice/flaggings that this article may be removed if I did not include proper citations/references for content, so since all the content actually came from her own supplied bio, I thought the best thing to do was reference content from the WGAW's own website, since Vicki recently received an honorary award from the WGAW and much of the same content was used in our awards press release/program - I am not sure how this qualifies for copyright infringement? If I remove the references to WGAW website/release, will that solve this issue? Again, how can the content on Vicki's article be "copyright infringement" when 100% of content I used came from her own personal bio she supplied to me? Would it be better if you reposted article without external references, as I only included them later as I thought Wiki required me to or the article would be removed anyway? I would appreciate if you could please advise on how best to resolve at your soonest. Much appreciated, as I'd like to respond back to Victoria Riskin herself. If you'd like to talk more, I am can be reached at: 323-782-4651 (office). Thanks Gregg Mitchell WGAW —Preceding unsigned comment added by Greggmitch (talk • contribs) 18:38, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
