Sacred Band of Stepsons

Marcus, I received this very disturbing email from Orangemike. He clearly wants to delete this project and has tagged it repeatedly. Is there a higher authority to whom one can appeal, or a different, neutral editor or panel to adjudicate tbis? How do I defend the project?

Below is Harmonia's response to the email that Orangemike sent to Harmonia1's email -- not talk page. The response was posted by Harmonia1 to the Harmonia1 talk page. Please give me your opinion of where I stand and what, if any, options are available to me.

Please withdraw speedy deletion

The article is referenced with interational headlines from the New York Times and Fox News. There is no possible way a reasonable good faith editor could conclude the topic is not notable. Please withdraw the speedy delete tag, it reflects poorly on your judgement and intentions. Bachcell (talk) 15:58, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It still fails WP:Not news. Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 16:01, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your lack of good faith is showing: For example, routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia. This is a terrorism arrest with worldwide coverage, not the meeting of a butterfly club in the library on thursday afternoon. Please remove the speedy deletion. Do you think the 9/11 attacks or Fort Hood Shooting could be speedy deleted under NOT NEWS??? Gaza Flotilla? Get real. Please do not argue the notability of a plot that is going to be in the news for a week at least as these people appear in court. What is your actual motive for deleting the article? Are you enforcing a POV regarding terrorist incidents, as every terrorist incident article is similarly requested for similarly spurious grounds? Speedy delete is for truly non-notable topics like somebody's birthday party or birth notice, not terrorism arrests which are always notable if they hit the international headlines. Bachcell (talk) 16:53, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, people died in those events. Actually Nadal Malik Hasan went to AfD once. Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 17:00, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and it reflects your lack of good faith that you would also claim Fort Hood was not notable. Now show some good faith and remove your speedy delete. If the 9/11 hijackers were arrested and nobody died, it's non-notable enough that you would delete that article too? You are showing a lack of NPOV by deleting a controversial topic. The fact that a topic is even controversial makes it notable. NPOV is neutral, balanced point of view, not NO point of view, and your're POV is showing. You cannot speedly delete to enforce your opinion of what should be in WP. Bachcell (talk) 17:16, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't say I took it to AfD. I just voted (keep) in it. I will not remove the speedy. That is for an admin to decide.Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 17:20, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is not for an admin to decide if it is obvious this is an abusive request. You have more than enough information to remove it yourself. So remove the speedy delete now before some similarly deletionist admin decides to act on it. Bachcell (talk) 17:34, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IP on Talk:Barack Obama

Perhaps it would be better if you explained to him why he is wrong rather than inflaming him.--William S. Saturn (talk) 20:17, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked, why hasn't he figured it out by now? Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 20:21, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe he's right.--William S. Saturn (talk) 20:23, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Marcus, thanks for the heads up on the picture of Jennifer Rohn. I've added a CC licence. Cloning jedi (talk) 23:04, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DYK problem: Stone of the Pregnant Woman

Hello! Your submission of Stone of the Pregnant Woman at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! --Stemonitis (talk) 12:03, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:24.4.101.72

What are you referencing? I haven't touched the article you indicate. 24.4.101.72 (talk) 18:05, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Staying in flight for five years doesn't begin to address the notability and unreferenced problems with the article Vulture (UAV). Try finding some sources to back up the claims. 24.4.101.72 (talk) 18:27, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Don't bite newcomers

You really hurt me when I found that my article is now under the speedy deletion que. Could you help me? Thanks. Latintooth (talk) 19:11, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Thelegendofgreatness

A final warning before any other was a bit over-the-top for creating and recreating a clearly nonsense article twice. I removed the warning I also left as it was an edit conflict - but it was at level 1, which I think was quite sufficient. I42 (talk) 19:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Replaced. Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 19:55, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thx! As it turns out, you appear to be right that they were here only to disrupt. I42 (talk) 20:15, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Title Edit

Hi Marcus, I recently added an article entitled Indra J Adler. This is a biography of a living person. It appears that the title of this article has been changed to 'Indra Adler'. I'm afraid that this needs to be changed back as the individual's name is infact Indra J. Adler. I have attempted to do this, however I do not think my account has been autoconfirmed yet. Would it be possible for you to do this for me? Many Thanks Jiajkbuzz (talk) 16:05, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

uh... help a noob out?

Ok, I am going nuts here. I don't see a single place anywhere on your user anything that is basically a "message" link/button. I guess you can remove this if it doesn't belong here but I don't see how I'm supposed to contact you.

I'm a new user. I recently created the cottonwood borer article and you marked it for deletion. I received a message telling me I could remove the prod, but am completely lost as to how to do that. In fact, I think it has been removed already? Anyway, please don't delete the article. It is an important insect and yada yada. Can you show me how to remove this 'prod' tag or help me out or something? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Razarax (talk • contribs) 17:48, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Stone of the Pregnant Woman

On 12 June, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Stone of the Pregnant Woman, which you recently nominated. If you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

M113 APC article

My original edit to the M113 APC article read:

One notable ARVN unit equipped with the M113 APC, the 3d Armored Cavalry Squadron, earned the Presidential Unit Citation (United_States).

You noted that it did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and you undid it. Does this conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy?

One notable ARVN unit equipped with the M113 APC, the 3d Armored Cavalry Squadron, earned the Presidential Unit Citation (United States). ^[1] ^[2]
