Hi. I had noted that you had posted a note to this editor regarding his edits and wanted just to alert you that there are some issues arising with his changing of images on actor articles, including changing to a fair-use character image from a free use one, changing from recent images to some that were 20 years old, and arbitrarily just changing images, even on WP:FA articles where the infobox image being used was a matter of discussion and consensus. I'm quickly becoming frustrated with the arbitrary way he is editing and have posted notes 3 times now to him with no response. I'd much prefer, especially if his editing is being scrutinized, for an admin to deal with it rather than becoming deeply involved in this. Thanks. Wildhartlivie (talk) 20:17, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for replying. I don't want to particularly watch his edits, I only noticed when he started changing out the photos to articles that I watch. When you see one person making an odd change to perhaps 12 or 15 articles on your list, it raises your awareness. I posted to you after he had made the infobox switch on Al Pacino, from a free use photo to one of a character he played over 20 years ago. I just wanted to raise awareness. Thanks so much.

Zumba

I was looking for information on Zumba and was curious as to why you'd deleted the page beyond the "eligible content" (whatever that means). It seems like Wikipedia had an entry that would tell me what the heck it is my friends are doing, but it was removed. If the content sucked, just flag it for improvement, don't delete it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.69.209.189 (talk) 14:08, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. you might wanna take a look at this editor who created this page, a page tagged for speedy deletion. the creator of the page keeps removing the speedy deletion tag. Amsaim (talk) 18:35, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have I been editing as an IP while blocked?

Of course I have, wikipedia is the encyclopedia anyone can edit. What an odd question; WP:IAR, imo. -- Kendrick7talk 03:39, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's all very exciting, cloak and daggers stuff, but I'm here to write an encyclopedia, and don't have time for such particulars. -- Kendrick7talk 03:08, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm unaware of what policy you speak of. As someone who edited under an IP address for a few years before the Seigenthaler controversy forced me to create an account, I try to pay close attention to such things, and I'm a bit of a policy wonk having written and helped maintain quite a few of them over the years. I've only ever used one logged in account, per WP:SOCK, which was why I ultimately asked that "Kendrick7" be unblocked. -- Kendrick7talk 08:03, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ooh, OK, I wasn't quite up to date on WP:EVADE; I didn't actually use my IP to evade anything I was blocked for; and I did notify an Arbcom member that I'd eventually resume editing anyway. But, anyway, no harm, no foul. To half-heartedly answer your question without rehashing 4 or 5 year old history, the most recent policy guideline (at least) that I authored, almost entirely via IP during my last (non-banned, non-formal) retirement, was WP:LINKLOVE, about which I'm quite proud of actually, as it's passage resolved a variety of longstanding ArbCom disputes. -- Kendrick7talk 05:35, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Undelete my page

Hey, My page is deleted unproperly, explain me why it is deleted —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ramkathi (talkcontribs) 22:08, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Messina Hof is back

Messina Hof was recreated by the user less than an hour after you deleted it. I proposed it for AfD but you may want to speedy delete it and consider blocking the user. Your call. --Biker Biker (talk) 22:36, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It might also be relevant to read this, which shows that the user in question is being paid to create the page. --Biker Biker (talk) 22:38, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Would you mind userfying it for me for a few minutes? I recall doing some cleanup on it, and it being a notable winery. I didn't think it was too bad until another user started spamming it. If it's not salvageable I will U1 it after I take a look at the history. Cheers. --kelapstick (talk) 23:04, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reactivate account Iberomesornix

Hello Anthony. I would like to change again to Iberomesornix, and permanently block Tintagel67, if possible. Thanx. --213.4.112.55 (talk) 09:20, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your assistance please

I noticed you completed the speedy deletion of Holly Bagnall. I noticed this because User:Darrenhusted, the contributor who nominated the Holly Bagnall article for deletion also nominated Orio Palmer, an article I started. And, when I checked their recent contribution history, I saw they had made a series of nominations of exceptional 9-11 victims. I was frankly concerned by what I saw as a sequence of overly hasty nominations.

The wikipedia is not a memorial. But victims of disasters, for whom there is some well documented aspect of their story that makes them exceptional, should not be nominated for deletion under the "not a memorial" reasoning.

Can I ask whether the Holly Bagnall article was about a 9-11 victim or survivor? If so could you userify it to User:Geo Swan/rescue/9-11/Holly Bagnall?

Thanks! Geo Swan (talk) 03:50, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Similarly if Ghassan Elias was a 9-11 victim or survivor would you please userify it to User:Geo Swan/rescue/9-11/Ghassan Elias? Thanks Geo Swan (talk) 03:57, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I got your reply. Thanks for checking. Cheers! Geo Swan (talk) 13:07, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Zumba (2)

Respectfully, did you do any research before A7ing the Zumba article? This was one of the sources listed - surely this is reason enough to send it to AFD. Also - the article was created 3 years ago - I do not think A7 was appropriate but I'm not going to wheel war you. Glen 10:11, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly no one is saying that just because something is reported on CNN it is automatically notable, however when the reference has statements like "Zumba zooms to the top of the exercise world" and "Zumba is now a brand name. Since 2003, Perlman's group has trained 20,000 instructors around the world and sold more than 3 million DVDs on the Internet and through infomercials" then I would argue that certainly speedy deletion under A7 was not appropriate. The fact that there are over 500 recent news articles on it also would indicate A7 was not suitable. A7 criteria states "The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance" - a CNN reference (in my opinion) certainly would mean that A7 does not apply. I was surprised when researching the subject that there was no article - however I was very surprised when I saw it was deleted without any consensus from an AFD - which would seem to me to clearly be the way to go. Again if after consideration you still feel the application of A7 was correct then I'll drop the subject. Glen 00:45, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hey thanks for your help on this. I'll pop a message on his talk page and if nothing comes of it then I'll leave it. Once again appreciated Glen 04:33, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nerd Football is not a blatent hoax.

Wow! You've deleted quite a lot of pages haven't you! There must have been a mistake, because on your deleting spree, you accidentally removed my honest article! I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding :)

Sorry to contact you personally, but I find it quite annoying that my article, which I have spent quite some time on, was deleted within minutes of posting. I'm guessing you think that any article which you have never heard of yourself can't be real. Its clear that you're making a jejune generalisation about all new articles - going to recent articles and just deleting everything for being "hoaxes" isn't going to earn you respect. The amount of difference that the page makes on Wikipedia is infinitesimal. If you have facebook, you can see the fan page. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=167482669787 It is clear that you have no tangible evidence for proof that NNFL is a hoax, where as I have photos and videos to support my claim. This will be posted on Wikipedia, as it is honest and true. I am inexorable on this matter and look forward to your immediate and productive response by rectifying the matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thealohaboy (talkcontribs) 14:05, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, you spoke to me in september http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Frankreichman wondering how I knew about admins, well in fact it was because of another wiki that works very similarly to wikipedia thats all. Thanks Frankreichman (talk) 21:11, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet

The user you just blocked, User:Penijs burnt with a bunsen burner, sounds like they might be a puppet of User:Penics put in boiling water and User:Penics covered in locusts. I raised the thought when they were reported and now I'm raising it again. Should some sort of SPI be made? --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 22:04, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. If you don't think it's worth it, no matter. And I love the thread title on my talk page. xD --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 22:18, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't think you were minimising my opinion. I was simply deferring to your judgement because I have no clue what blocking policy is on some thing because I have no blocking powers of my own, so while reading up on it is useful, it's not a priority. --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 22:39, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could you help sort out dispute

Hello,

One editor believes that the article Ross Petot should be removed. He claims this pianist is known only in New England which is not true. I have tried to prove to this individual that this is not the case by including some info where he has played or will play. The user Paul something removed this information I'm assuming because it shows the subject playing outside of New England. The subject is actually well known among the ragtime and taditional jazz fans and has played in Canada and Europe. The article also has sources. I removed his tag that the article didn't contain sources or prove that he was notable. I have found doing a web search that people across the US are even playing his compositions. This sounds notable to me. Can you help sort this out. I'm afraid this editor has no intention of backing down even when proved wrong. I'd hate to see the article removed because of one persons die hard objections. I'm asking you because you once edited the artcle and are a admin. Thanks. Dwain (talk) 23:58, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ross Petot really is not someone who meets the criteria of a Wikipedia article.His only real claim to fame is that he has played with a band called The Wolverines who have no Wikipedia article and their fame is at best miniscule in the jazz world.Paul210 (talk) 23:11, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Carlo Garavaglia

Why did you delete Carlo Garavaglia? I was still discussiong in the talk page with another user,and he is a third division manager. En.wikipedia allows third divison manager and players,doesn't it? The article cited also one reference.--Der Schalk (talk) 21:29, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have some problems with my English,I don't understand what I have to do in the page Wikipedia:DRV,if you could use it for me i would be grateful. I still don't understand why you "feel that the level of involvement of this gentleman in his sport does not warrant an encyclopedia entry". That are thousands of Third divison footballer and managers,in particular the English ones. Garavaglia managed third and forth division clubs for many years,on wipedia I can find articles about people who played less than ten matches in fourth or fifth division (like him). This isn't right,in my opinion.--Der Schalk (talk) 22:09, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to use DRV myself,without any help. I hope I haven't done any mistake.

Deletion review for Carlo Garavaglia

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Carlo Garavaglia. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Der Schalk (talk) 11:30, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion of Schmooz-a-Palooza

Hello, I placed a hangon tag to contest the speedy deletion nomination for the Schmooz-a-Palooza article. I also added the following entry to the Talk page for the article, contesting speedy deletion (which was added by a Twinkle bot) for a redirect page. Please read the following information I placed originally on the Talk page and re-create the Schmooz-a-Palooza redirect. Thank you.

Contesting Speedy Deletion

The Criteria for Speedy Deletion specifically excludes almost all redirect pages from speedy deletion.

In particular, refer to Criteria:

   * G3 (this is not redirect created by cleanup)
   * G7 (not created by pagemove)
   * G8 (does not redirect to invalid target)
   * A3 (excludes all redirects)
   * A10 (excludes redirects)
   * R2 (does not redirect outside of article namespace)
   * R3 (not a typo)

If the existence of this redirect page is contested, it should be contested through Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion. (Note that Criteria for Speedy Deletion says: "For any redirects, including soft redirects, that are not speedy deletion candidates, use Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion.") Infoman99 (talk) 20:42, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relevant content added for redirect

Thanks for bringing to my attention that the Schmooz-a-Palooza content in the Matzo Ball article was in a section several lines above my targeted redirect section. I've moved and added content for Schmooz-a-Palooza into Matzo Ball#Competitors, so now the redirect at Schmooz-a-Palooza can be revived. Thanks Infoman99 (talk) 21:26, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to salt it and/or block the creator for a little while. This is the second time it's been recreated after the AfD. —ShadowRanger (talk|stalk) 22:02, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am always a little bit cautious about salting articles where the name could become the title of a sensible article; especially when it has been created/re-created at different times by different editors. Re-creation of a deleted article is only rarely a blockable offence, except, of course, for the usual criteria of attack, obscenity, threat, etc. But it is worth watching. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 22:06, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't mean a permanent salt. I've seen admins use a three month salt to dissuade the current editor, while allowing for the possibility that it may be a worthy topic in the future. All up to admin preference I suppose; I have no strong objections to leaving it unsalted, particularly if you keep it watched. —ShadowRanger (talk|stalk) 22:10, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, he just recreated again. Still sure about not salting? ;-) —ShadowRanger (talk|stalk) 22:21, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Point taken. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 22:22, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello !

I am not quite sure why the above was deleted, since I can't check what was in the article any more. It was just a stub anyway, but I suspect there were some sources nevertheless.

In just a few words, Eliza Hancock (= Eliza de Feuillide, or, for that matter, Eliza Austen) is notable as having inspired several major caracters in Jane Austen's novels : Mary Crawford in Mansfield Park, most notably, possibly Eliza in Sense and Sensibility, Isobel de Feuillide in Love and Freindship, of course, and a few others. It is indeed very difficult to analyse Jane Austen's novels and ignore Eliza Hancock.

Please refer to French article for sourcing. Any amount of sourcing is easily available anyway. A separate entry can be seen for instance in

  • (en) Paul Poplawski, A Jane Austen encyclopedia, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1998, 411 p. (ISBN 9780313300172)

Deirdre Le Faye has written a full-fledged biography of her :

  • (en) Deirdre Le Faye, Jane Austen's 'outlandish cousin': the life and letters of Eliza de Feuillide, British Library, 2002, 192 p.


Just in case, here are a few others sources as per Google Books.

Thank you for your comments, questions - or re-creation. --Azurfrog (talk) 23:43, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, please recreate it, as I did mean to improve it (and still do...), and have ample material to do so.

Thanks ! --Azurfrog (talk) 13:49, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I do not understand the reasoning behind your {{speedy}} post here. You say that the article has nothing do do with dentistry, nor does it claim to. Am I missing a deleted edit somewhere? --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 21:46, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One of the edits made by our esteemed co-editor claims his wonder gadget has application to Stomatology; as well as gardening. Looks like a hoax to me. --Wtshymanski (talk) 21:54, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I am not going to press on with this; the editor can do so himself if he wishes, and the article is of minimal importance. In my view the author, whose first language is probably not English, has selected the wrong word. He is clearly describing a water-turbine of unusual principle., and says so. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 22:01, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: Final and only warning

Your comment, shown below, as well as your irrational (emotional...based on your nonsense "manupulation" comment) deletion of article Ann Loiuse Bardach suggest that your adminship should perhaps be reviewed. I consider the deletion of this article to be "admin vandalism". I must say, however, that the deletion is somewhat of a blessing in disguise for me for reasons that i care not share. Hence, it is going to seem crazy when i say thank you, if i ever do. So although my comment regarding manipulation of admins was not directed to you, it begs the question: who inadvertenly manipulated who this time?

Your comment below appears to be a threat, which to me as a threat, is meaningless unless childish. You are advised to better spend your time actually explaining copyright law in more detail to others. For your information, copyright law violation is subjective (you might want to learn about Supreme Court rulings), so there is no such thing as, "explained to you very clearly", as you say. You should be aware that i have on many occassions explained the process of how i go about creating an article to other admins, and not once, have any of them objected. This is fact burried in my edit history. The one admin who processed the block yesterday was the first to ever say that i could not copy/paste copyright material into Wikipedia even if in the process of editing before actually posting the final article.

With regards to blanking my talk page, it is none of your business, further, if you would have looked into the recent history of the talk page you would have learned that relevant comments were reposted after a previous blanking. At any rate, your further comments are no longer welcomed. Please do not post on my talk page again, although if i know you well as i think i do, i know you will be watching with thoughts of more related "admin vandalism" not too far off in the future. Again, your further comments are not welcomed - do not post on my talk page again. Henry Delforn (talk) 19:28, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


"Final and only warning You have had wikipedia copyright policy explained to you very clearly, although you have seen fit to blank the explanations from this page. Please take this as a definite and final warning. The next time that you post an edit which violates our copyright policy you will be blocked from editing here indefinitely. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 14:47, 12 December 2009 (UTC)"

Curtis23's RFA

Anthony, I closed that RFA because I don't think there's any requirement that WP:NOTNOW RFA closes be made by admins- the Bureaucrat's Instructions doesn't attempt to make any distinction between admins and non-admins in these cases. We are all, by the terms used in that document, "non-bureaucrats". If you'd like an admin to formally close it, I can revert myself, but I think it's certain the end result would be the same.

Hi there. Back in 2006, you participated in an AfD for this article at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Draconity. The article has been recreated, and I have re-nominated it for deletion.

Hi. Would you please tell me, or better discuss in here the reason why you deleted the article Dang Thai Son? Was the article totally copyright violated or just a version of that article? Because if I remember right, the last time I read the article, it did not have any sign of copyvio. Thank you. Grenouille vert (talk) 01:50, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hanja (漢字)

I tried to create a re-direct for the Hanja equivalent for DPRK, but I noticed that you deleted the old re-direct, stating that Hanja is not acceptable on English WP, your main reason being Korean WP does not allow them (but a few notable exceptions such as Korean peninsula and Kim Jong-il, 朝鮮半島 and 金正日, were never re-directs on KO-WP and thus have never been deleted). The reference to the KO-WP is true, as I tried searching a few Hanja terms there, clicked on the red-links at the top of the search, and found the reason as to why they were deleted.
In addition Korean MOS doesn't specifically prohibit these re-directs. Ok... even if you proceed with deleting Hanja re-directs, they are a small minority in the world of Chinese character re-directs on WP, mainly because of Chinese-Simplified/Traditional and Japanese, so I don't really mind either. And please excuse me for my relative ignorance towards this matter; I am an ethnic Chinese and thus know very little about most Korean topics (well StarCraft counts :D). 华钢琴49 (TALK) 01:57, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy categories

Yes, I suppose it could have been listed under the category of advertising, but it didn't immediately come to mind or seem to quite fit (I tend to associate that category more with "corporate boosterism" than an actual classified-style ad, first I've seen of that :) ) Sometimes these categories don't exactly fit the content of the page; it seems to me that what's ultimately important is that it needs to be gone, whatever category it got slotted into. Thanks for the message. — e. ripley\talk 20:39, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can you also delete the article page? Marrion gopez

Hello, can you also delete the article page? I did not put the speedy delete on the article page itself because it would interfere with the redirect process and the article page is aparently the target that google search is sending people.

User:930913 page deleted by you

I made that page and the talk page to redirect to my page since it is my usual username. Since some sites, including Wikipedia demand an initial letter, a930913 is the username I use. Given that nobody else can have the username 930913, I took that to forward to my page. It was noted down after the redirect code. Is there anything else I can do to stop it from being deleted again? —Preceding undated comment added 16:06, 3 May 2010 (UTC).

unblocks on hold

I wonder if I could ask you to use the "on hold" template when placing an unblock request on hold? I keep looking over unblock requests only to get to the bottom and find that you are discussing the matter with the blocking admin, effectively "holding" the block, but because you don't use the template to indicate this the requests still show up in Category:Requests for unblock as though they are still waiting to be reviewed.

Speedy deletion of Dr. Ghulam Hussain

Dr. Ghulam Hussain page contained more information and it was removed and the old webpage Ghulam Hussain (physician) was restored wich contained less information. The person that the article is about wants the article to be on Dr. Ghulam Hussain and not Ghulam Hussain (physician). This is a interview with him in Pakistani news show http://www.vimeo.com/12120499. He served under Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anwqel112 (talkcontribs) 18:48, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Anthony. I see you deleted Dr. Ghulam Hussain just as I was looking over the speedy. To me there seemed to be multiple claims of significance - ex-General Secetary of the PPP, member of the Constitution Committee and so on. Am I missing something, perhaps? I confess to almost complete ignorance of Pakistani politics so maybe this was a hoax I didn't pick up on? Olaf Davis (talk) 22:13, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not seen the speedied article, but he's this bloke. Clearly notable. The article I linked had been changed to a redirect to the speedied article. DuncanHill (talk) 22:21, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am happy to be corrected, but as far as I can see the article still in place contains all the data, and more, that was contained in the article which I deleted. The curent article is clearly showing notability; the other, IMHO, did not. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 19:42, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Felixia Yeap

I don't understand why is the 'runner up' being an issue for nomination of speed delete.Is it that people can only include article that reflect the status of international and exclude everything else for the local scene that in this case everything Felixia Yeap achieve in local Malaysia should not be explained in the article as i think it is important to include both for better references?do update...thank you.

25th Hour Coalition

As per the request below, I am contacting the deleting administrator to discuss why the 25th Hour Coalition Page was deleted. The 25th Hour is a legitimate coalition designed to help woman add a 25th hour to their day. I have included links below to articles about the coalition. The 25th Hour Coalition's leader was interview by Thompson Reuters and the article was picked up by many reputable sources, proving that it is indeed legitimate. Any advice you can offer on how I can tailor the page to make is acceptable to wikipedia's guidelines would be very much appreciated. Thank you for reviewing the page and I look forward to hearing from you.

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.

Condoning block evasion

This edit was seriously questionable. If he is detected editing under another account, that account will be blocked indefinitely for block evasion, and, at this stage, this editor will be too.—Kww(talk) 18:38, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I know that you don't actually condone block evasion, so my title choice was poor. I'm sorry for that. Look over your unblock denial in context, though. If the next step is dual indefs based on block evasion, what do you want to bet that the defense is going to be "Anthony.bradbury said it would be OK"? He not only has to edit properly, he has to avoid his previous areas of interest or that indef is virtually inevitable.—Kww(talk) 21:08, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Auschwtiz Concentration Camp

I sent you the following email: I read through most of the discussion of this page on the TALK discussion board. It seems there have been quite a few remarks/suggestions for edits that may be quite valid for the page referenced above, yet the edits have not been added to the wiki page. You seem to be at an administrator level with authorizations to incorporate edits. Can you update this semi-protected page? Do you need some assistance in this regard? I'm looking specifically at the section on "CHILDREN" which says "all children" were sent to the gas chambers upon arrival (untrue); and, my remarks which I added last night regarding filming allowed at Auschwitz. The reference date to War and Remembrance is incorrect and the article does not mention Nuit et Brouillard by Alain Resnais. These may be minor, but as knowledge of Auschwitz and the Holocaust pass far away from the generations, I think it is important to get the facts straight. Let me know if you need help. P.S. I am new to this.--Verite Story (talk) 19:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New Use and Auschwitz Concentration Camp

Tony! (your page said you like to be called Tony and I remember not only typewriters but carbon paper as well! Ahhh!!) Thanks, thanks again for the Welcome page with the links. I plan to spend some time playing around with the editing features for a while until I know what I'm doing. I can't even figure out how to just send you a reply to your Welcome note without doing a new section. I presume I will find that out when I have time to look at the links and the tutorials. As for Auschwitz and children and the remark that "all children" were gassed immediately that I think is wrong, I am thinking about reports of a children's section (no resources to cite at the moment from where I sit and I might be thinking of other camps - a real possibility) but I'm also thinking of a variety of books and personal accounts I have read from survivors who were children at the time (again, maybe I'm thinking of other camps). I won't change it unless and until I can dig through my books and get some verifiable citations on that, perhaps check with Yad Vashem or the Shoah Project at USC (among other places including my personal library). But, if my memory is correct and the reference to "all children" were gassed upon arrival is incorrect, then there is a discrepancy in the same section of Auschwitz Concentration Camp on wikipedia that claims that upon liberation , that of the 7500 survivors still at the camp (who had not been sent on death marches or transferred), some were children. Consistency is necessary. As to the other issue regarding the films, I'll make sure I use appropriate wiki citation formatting and I'll figure out how to add links to the existing pages. Sent you an email through this link. Please check it when you have a moment. --Verite Story (talk) 01:09, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
