== S2daam ==

I'm a bit surprised at your block of {{userlinks|S2daam}}. He's one of those editors that I have always found to be a complete pain, but an indefinite vandalism block seems a bit strong. He has created articles with notability problems in the past, and the end result has always been a redirect. It looks to me like he had given up on his latest creation, decided to redirect it, and tripped up over how to handle the AFD that was inevitably going to wind up in the same place.

I'm all in favor of an indef, but I would have done it as an "indef until agrees to follow [[WP:N]] and [[WP:CRYSTAL]] prior to article creation", not as an indef for vandalism, since I haven't seen any evidence that he actively means to cause harm. All I've seen evidence of is that he doesn't quite understand the difference between Wikipedia and a fan site.—[[User:Kww|Kww]]([[User talk:Kww|talk]]) 21:36, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Twinrova600ppx.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Twinrova600ppx.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Admin Coaching...?

Can you admin coach me? Right now I feel a bit disillusioned about the project, and desperately need something to motivate me to stay in, and learn something productive in the process. I'm not going to run an RFA any time too soon, but I want to be of as much help to the project as possible.Rkr1991 (Wanna chat?) 16:09, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thank you! I will hopefully be able to do a weekly check and keep current/old/removed requests in order! Mind you, with the holidays almost upon us, I'm not sure how much will be done next week or the week after! -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 20:05, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oi to the World! cover

With regard to this, the file is not a speedy deletion candidate. It does not meet any of the criteria at WP:CSD#Files. You many nominate it at WP:FFD if you feel it does not meet the non-free content criteria, however it does pass the criteria you have claimed it violates. Specifically, you have said that it fails NFCC #s 3 and 8 as there is no critical commentary, however WP:NFCI allows cover art in the context of critical commentary of the item, and Oi to the World! contains critical commentary about the album. The album was released initially in 1996 with the first cover, then was out of print for several years, and has been back in print since 2000 with the completely different second cover. Criterion #3 is met because one item cannot convey the equivalent information, as the album has been released twice with two completely different covers and thus neither cover alone can accurately convey the identifying image to the reader. Criterion #8 is met because having both covers significantly increases reader understanding, as again the reader must be able to see the images to understand the visual distinction between the two completely different releases, and because eliminating either image would be detrimental to this understanding as neither cover alone accurately represents the album. Believe me, I'm in favor of getting rid of alternate covers in situations where their differences are minimal and can be explained in words alone (and have done so on several occasions), but this is not one of those cases. For recent relevant discussions on this topic see here and here. --IllaZilla (talk) 20:11, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of file tagged to have copy remain on this project

(del/undel) 20:47, 18 December 2009 Fastily (talk | contribs | block) deleted "File:Risker moon.jpg" ‎ (Deleted because "F8: Media file available on Wikimedia Commons by same name". using TW) (view/restore)

I don't mind that there is a copy over on Commons, but this file was specifically tagged to keep a local copy. I have done this very deliberately; I cannot count the number of times I have seen images disappear from Commons without notice or warning to the original uploader. Since this image is not used in any articles anywhere on any WMF project (and it's really not good enough, it's a personal photo not a good quality one), it is at even higher risk of mysteriously disappearing. Please reinstate it here on this project, as per the tag that was in place at the time of deletion. Thanks. Risker (talk) 21:18, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please explain your reasons for deleting my post.

Hi Fastily,

Can you tell me how to edit the content that you deleted in order to have it published within Wikipedia? I have read all of the available resources regarding the creation of stubs and I have also used current published stubs as my references. My original content is below: {{Userspace draft|source=ArticleWizard|date=December 2009}} '''A-Prime Handling, Inc''' Located in the Industrial Park of Avon, MA A-Prime Handling, Inc. (more commonly known as "A-Prime") is a national facility service, sales and installation company for material handling products. It's core business consists of selling, coordinating, delivering, servicing and installing the material handling products that it provides as well as those already owned by its clients. Essentially moving a retailer's products from their mode of delivery to their final destination.<br> <b>History</b> Founded in 1977, with just two employees, A-Prime Handling, Inc. started as a pallet rack and mezzanine installation company known as Master Installers. It's founder and current company president, Michael Zelman started the company after working in the material handling industry for several years. However, the actual A-Prime Handling, Inc. enterprise did not exist until January 1990 as a result of Michael Zelman's desire to start selling material handling products in addition to simply installing them. Then, because of A-Prime Handling, Inc.'s success and increased recognition within the material handling industry, Michael Zelman decided to consolidate the businesses leaving Master Installers to fade away in 2004 and operate under the A-Prime Handling, Inc. name.<br> Today, A-Prime Handling, Inc. is a national material handling facility service and product provider, hired by leading retailers within the US, Canada and Puerto Rico.<br> <b>Material Handling Products</b><br> *Balers *Overhead Doors *Dock Equipment *Conveyors *Vertical Lifts *Scissor Docks *Pallet Racks *Mezzanines *Handicap & Wheelchair Lifts == References == <ref>[http://www.prsm.com Professional Retail Store Maintenance Association]</ref> {{Reflist}} == External links == [http://www.a-prime.com A-Prime Handling, Inc.] <!--- Categories ---> [[Category:Articles created via the Article Wizard]] -- Thanks in advance.

S2daam

I'm a bit surprised at your block of S2daam (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). He's one of those editors that I have always found to be a complete pain, but an indefinite vandalism block seems a bit strong. He has created articles with notability problems in the past, and the end result has always been a redirect. It looks to me like he had given up on his latest creation, decided to redirect it, and tripped up over how to handle the AFD that was inevitably going to wind up in the same place.

I'm all in favor of an indef, but I would have done it as an "indef until agrees to follow WP:N and WP:CRYSTAL prior to article creation", not as an indef for vandalism, since I haven't seen any evidence that he actively means to cause harm. All I've seen evidence of is that he doesn't quite understand the difference between Wikipedia and a fan site.—Kww(talk) 21:36, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
