yes I apologise (though I also translated the text in English). The fact is, those two users have somewhat created problems on it.wiki, especially Harrison who was blocked for one month because of misbehaviour (as for Theirrulez I notice that he's causing controversies here too because of Croatian - Italian issues), and since I noticed that they were talking about me on en.wiki about a fact happened on it.wiki that led to Harrison's block and in which I was involved too, I just left them a "welcome" message to make clear there are no safe zones on any wikipedia chapters to chat at someone else's shoulders. -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 11:33, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Disruptive IP

The other day, you blocked 63.3.0.1 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) for 3 months. He hopped over to 63.3.0.129 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and is doing the same bad edits.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:51, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Jasmere.com AfD

I appreciate your several edits and comments regarding jasmere.com. The article is much stronger now than before. I do have a question, though. From looking at the AfD discussion, there were several comments on each side whether to Delete or Keep. But it seemed fairly clear to me that the breadth and depth of arguments for Keep outweighed Delete. Even you ended by saying that you tended to agree that the article is now notable as well as not overly promotional. Yet the person who closed the debate said that no consensus was reached. What do you think? I know it's very subjective. Is there anything I can do to see if others feel that the evidence more strongly supported a Keep decision? Jbernfeld (talk) 02:43, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I do feel the article is significantly stronger now and worthy of a keep. The problem is those little local TV spots seem like the results of PR placements. Given the history of the article it completely fits. It would be great to find an article about the company, rather than a piece mentioning the company's product as a "tip" to save money or something. Just my $.02 worth.

Why ZippCast?

Why did you have to delete my ZippCast article? You claim that it was deleted because of advertising, which is something that was NOT intended as I was writing it. Instead of deleting it, why didn't you just FIX it? I'm not the best at writing Wikipedia articles, but apparently you are much better since you have the authority to do so much as temporarily BLOCK MY ACCOUNT. What was stopping you from just helping me?

I made a post here called "Why ZippCast?" a while ago, and it seems you haven't responded. I would appreciate if you took some time to read it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AutoMe (talk • contribs) 02:20, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Before I answer, what is your connection to ZippCast? Toddst1 (talk) 05:06, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Shane A. Hammond

Todd, put my Shane A. Hammond page back please. He is indeed a New Zealand artist and I created a listing for him using information from his website. He is a friend of mine and I am helping him with his web presence. He's a really cool artist too.

Thanks

Apologies

If you didn't know, I do apologize for insinuating on any double standard at ANI. Cheers, Tommy! [message] 00:12, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Apology accepted, but not necessary. I apparently screwed up on that. It's good to point out stuff like that - keeps us honest. Cheers. Toddst1 (talk) 00:15, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Appreciate the honesty and openmindedness. :) Tommy! [message] 00:26, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

User:Jerzeykydd

Thanks for taking care of Jerzeykydd, this was not my first negative encounter with the editor and I am glad you took care of it so quickly. Just on a sidenote, I noticed Jerzeykydd has been blocked twice in just over a month. What is the penalty for another infraction?--TM 01:35, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's not cut and dry. Yes, there is a pattern of repeat disruption in a number of dimensions. That is why I've issued a fairly lengthy block. I'm optimistic that this will be a wake-up-call to the editor and s/he will return to be a productive editor without the disruption. It's clear the potential is there. However, if the disruption resumes, a much more lengthy block will likely result - although it is not guaranteed. There is a lot of administrator discretion involved. I can tell you that if I block the editor again in the first month after the block expires, it will almost certainly be an indef block. If another admin handles it, the outcome may be different.

If you see any further disruption there, please bring it to my attention. Toddst1 (talk) 17:55, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Hey Toddst1 - I and another user have asked on ANI to have this guy's block shortened - could you please reply to the thread there? Thanks. -- Y not? 22:55, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much. I will carry out my promises.--Jerzeykydd (talk) 02:52, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

No worries. Please contact an administrator or pursue WP:DR before you violate your restrictions if you find yourself in a conflict. Let's revisit this in a few months and maybe we can lift the restrictions. Toddst1 (talk) 02:57, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Vinyl On Demand

Greetings, I assumed that the subscription based business model that Vinyl On Demand uses would make it notable. Do I need to make that more of the feature? They allow for 300 subscribers a year (and they get it) on top of what they sell to distributors. They are the only one doing this (on a large scale), their items are immensely popular to collectors, and quite expensive. I'd love some direct communication on what I could do to make this page last! Cheers!Theebradmiller (talk) 17:25, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Indeed. Try getting some third party WP:RS in there. In the mean time I'll restore the article to your user space. You can find it in User:Theebradmiller/Vinyl On Demand.

It's pretty clear you're editing in good faith. Let me know if you have any questions. Toddst1 (talk) 17:40, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so much. I will work on it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Theebradmiller (talk • contribs) 17:54, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of Earl Hughes

No this is not Earl Hughes. I am an editor for the local paper in the town which Earl lives. I am rather new with editing Wikipedia so I apologize that I did not state why he was significant. Earl works for a popular local tourist destination that hosts hundreds of thousands of tourists a year. It seems he does quite well with his job as an entertainer/musician because I have received numerous (over fifty) emails from people wanting to know more about him. While he does have his own website, it is not of the quality information that people desire so I started to set out to create such a place. If you would undelete the page and allow me to improve it to Wikipedias desires that would be greatly appreciated.
