No problem, probably not notable, however the AfD will settle it one way or the other. VERTott 11:38, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

remove the images from "sharon g. flake". they do not work. as for flake's mother, information from an unspecified source states she was a prostitute. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.62.142.241 (talk) 16:56, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

And your next edit was to add a string of swear words, so you certainly are vandalising the article... Mechanical digger (talk) 17:01, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm getting quite annoyed at people deleting my articles such as Grove Avenue when I haven't done anything wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Impact33 (talk • contribs) 19:53, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Mo Twister needs protection please

{{adminhelp}} thanks to User:Favonian. Mechanical digger (talk) 11:52, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Mo Twister is a Philippino DJ who has encouraged listeners to vandalise his page, as such it's a mess and needs protection. Mechanical digger (talk) 11:43, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Re

I didn't know that GBooks was considered a flawed rationale for AfD, although from reading WP:GHITS, I now understand why it is. What I did find bitey, and this was just from my perspective, was that he called my comment "bad research", which is an exaggeration from not understanding that WP:GHITS is an argument to avoid. I wouldn't have complained had he just linked to the WP:GHITS essay, instead of admonishing me with that slightly condescending "tut tut". I'm still a newbie after all...--hkr (talk)13:11, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

And as for the sig, I found out a few weeks ago that you could change it through the preferences, and have been experimenting with it since. Admittedly, I should keep such experimentations on my userpage, but all my sigs have been combinations of resident, HK, and Laozi, so it's always clear who I am.--hkr (talk)13:14, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure it's bitey to call bad research "bad research", but never mind, the issue did seem resolved. I don't think you can wave the newbie flag any more either – I have fewer edits than you and would be insulted to be called a newbie: when venturing into new areas I try to read all the relevant pages and to accept constructive criticism in good faith. Sometimes written communication fails to convey tone, and I always try to bear that in mind. Finally, I have no idea what Laozi means, or its connection to HK, and the wl'd article doesn't shed much light. But never mind, let's move on! Best wishes, Bigger digger (talk) 13:35, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

User pages

Good morning I just wanted to know how can i remove a user page i did before while practicing on how to make a Wikipedia article , so right now this page is empty and has no data so i want to delete it can you please tell me how ? Thanks in advance(Moro27 (talk) 13:36, 22 November 2010 (UTC))

Hi! It's afternoon where I am, but thanks for the greeting. Place {{db-u1}} or {{db-userreq}} at the top of any user pages you might want deleted. See WP:CSD for more information. Happy editing, Bigger digger (talk) 13:41, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Order of Charlemagne

The Order of Charlemagne exists, but Andorra is a small country and this order has just been awarded once with acceptation (Architect Frank Gehry (not Norman Foster!) refused it because of problems with the Andorran Governement and his final design of the National History Museum ). It was created in 2007, and as a young order in a small country where military forces doesn't exist, is difficult to be awarded with it. I can access to pictures when the only awarded, José Luis Sampedro, a Spanish writer, was awarded with it. If you send me your email, I will send them to you. But I ask you please to don't deleate my article. I want everybody to know more about my contry, is really small and not very known in the world. Medals and decorations are my passion, and I have the oportunity here to show the world that Andorra has just ONE, but is enough for a small country, oficial Order.

Yours sincerely, Alexeinikolayevichromanov

Hi! At the moment it is impossible to verify that this Order exists. Have you got links to a Spanish/Andorran newspaper article about it being awarded? Bigger digger (talk) 18:45, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

In fact, I'll move this to the article talk page at Talk:Order of Charlemagne. Bigger digger (talk) 18:46, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for that;

Thanks for that. I will start editing and helping out properly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Impact33 (talk • contribs) 20:53, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Will reply on your talk page, keep the conversation in one place and for your benefit. Bigger digger (talk) 22:46, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

A picture

Hi , I just wanted to ask why some images or pictures be on the Wikipedia and others on the Wikimedia commons ?what is the difference? and is there any chance to move a picture from Wikimedia commons to be on the Wikipedia ? Thanks in advance.(Moro27 (talk) 08:21, 23 November 2010 (UTC))

Commons allows all the different projects to use an image, so the French Wikipedia, Wikinews and Wiktionary could all use the same image, with it stored on the Commons' servers, images are generally "free" or without copyright. Images (called files) on Wikipedia can only be used on Wikipedia and more restrictive uses are allowed. If an image is on Commons it can be used on en.wikipedia without any problems, so there's no need to move it. See WP:IMAGES for all the information you might need! But feel free to ask more questions here. Bigger digger (talk) 10:08, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

First Thanks for your fast response, i want to ask you if the picture is a company logo is it better be in the wikipedia not in the wikimedia to be more protected ? if yes how can i move it? Moreover how can i make the license of the logo to show that this is a logo of an organization.Thanks.(Moro27 (talk) 11:11, 23 November 2010 (UTC))
