Putting you at contribution

Hi,

Just asking you if you are interested to look for more refs & informations on Miki Tori's Kuru Kuru Karin. You can find my findings on Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Japan/Anime_and_Manga#K. It will be interesting for the Animanga project to get more articles on manga released in the 80s which is clearly in a project blind spot. Thanks --KrebMarkt 21:41, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Creating page for historic hotel, blocked

Can I please have "The Clarendon Hotel" unblocked? The hotel was the site of the 1976 carbombing of Arizona Republic pulitzer-nominated journalist, Don Bolles. It is a point of pride in the City of Phoenix. The page was blocked in just a few minutes when we started creating the page after people mentioned that we should create a page. Other similar hotels have wiki pages: Mission Inn in Riverside, Chateau Marmont, Mondrian, Standard Hotel, Arizona Biltmore, etc., etc... thank you in advance! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benbethel (talk • contribs) 04:03, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

The page had serious copyright violation issues when it was deleted, so I can not restore the article. If you wish to work an article, I suggest creating it at User:Benbethel/The Clarendon Hotel and making sure you do not copy the text from any other location (including the official site of the hotel or its restaurant). You need to make sure it meets the notability requirements by including reliable sources which let other editors verify the information found in the article. Once you have it ready to be moved into the mainspace of the encyclopedia, you can let me know and I will be happy to review it at that time. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 05:58, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Possible goings-on

I just noticed something here, but I have to run off to a job interview, so I can't look into it. But you blocked Hcc webmaster at 16:13 per spam username. At 16:25, Johnny B. Webmaster was created and immediately started editing Haywood Community College. I can't take a look at whether those new diffs are NPOV or not, I've got to run, but I thought I'd make you aware if you were not already. Useight (talk) 20:13, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Yup, I'm aware of it. I'm allowing it for now because he was wanting to change his username but kept editing, so was blocked. He now seems to be willing to work with others on the article, so we'll see how it goes. Thanks. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 01:01, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Re template

You caught me just as I was logging out :) I don't have the time to do anything right now (and to be honest I'm not the best with intricate template stuff), but I'll take a look tomorrow if you like. You could also try User:Geometry guy or User:Kirill Lokshin, both of whom are far better at writing templates than I am. Hope this helps, EyeSerene^talk 19:18, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I've already left a note with Kirill Lokshin, and I'll leave w=one with Geometry guy, too. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 19:27, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

For closing this (I'm sure it took awhile to read through everything) and most importantly for summarizing the RfC in a fair and admirable fashion. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 02:18, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Christina Mendez

User Christina Mendez is reusing the copyright image of the subject in the article, even after you have told him not to. He also has reverted teh article back to its' original edit reverting all constructive edits. Doesn't know how to create wikilinks after I have shown him how to. Also, would like your opinion to see if subject is notable or simply a vanity page. Is there any way you can help? --XLR8TION (talk) 19:22, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

User:Mujahid1947's name still appears in edit history

You recently changed the name of User:Mujahid1947 to User:Gameboy1947. This request was part of an unblock request as some admins found his name offensive. I was watching the whole situation take place, and it looked like it was finally resolved, but now in the edit history of in Afghanistan (2001–present), his old name is showing up again, and I'm worried he might get blocked again for an offensive username. Do you know why this is happening? This user has shown a lot of confusion with functioning on Wikipedia, so I suspect he might be logging in wrong. AzureFury (talk | contribs) 15:42, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's his own fault for not staying logged in as Gameboy1947. The new (old) account has been blocked now, so that should get his attention. The block notice tells him to login under the Gameboy1947 account. ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 17:47, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

Liancourt Rocks edit

I left a comment on that page suggesting measuring the distance to mainland Korea and Honshu Japan. I got taken by this subject after a news article. I don't know why the distance to Honshu is given with 250km when it's 212km only. The 217km to mainland Korea ist correct though. The Korean article and the English article lists the 250km which cannot be changed. The Japanese article doesn't mention it though. If you find time maybe you can check it out and correct this.

Re:Founder

My use of the userbox has been discussed twice at ANI and both times was found to be ok since Founder doesn't condone any special priveledges, as opposed to falsely claiming to be an Admin or Crat. Obvious jokes are not disruptive. Additionally, editing the userpages of others against consensus is vandalism and will be treated as such. In the future please check before taking action.DaiZengar^{Smite evil} 00:17, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
