Would you mind combining the railroad templates into one nomination? See [[WP:MULTI]].

== Bulk rename of pages ==

Can [[WP:AWB]] bulk rename a list of pages? Pages i am thinking of are
(year) Australian Championships
which I have discussed with the creator, should be (year) Australian tennis championships or similar.
Thanks for any advice, [[User:GarrieIrons|Ga]][[User_talk:GarrieIrons|rr]][[Special:Contributions/GarrieIrons|ie]] 03:58, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

:I don't believe that AWB will facilitate a bulk rename of pages. If you're wanting to do a bulk-rename, though, I'd get consensus before you push such a change through just to be on the safe side. And then if you're already working to get consensus, you might also be able to find someone with a bot that can do the rename rather painlessly. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 04:02, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

::Thanks for the prompt reply even if it's a "sorry but I can't help".
::Yeah, I know about reaching consensus, I've been discussing with article creator and will follow up on Aust Wikipedians Noticeboard and at some sort of tennis project (I'm sure there is one). Problem is, even if "2007 Australian Championships" is the official ATP name of the event - it is too general for use here and at the very least we would need to add (Tennis) to the end.

:Yeah, you're more than welcome to help out, though the importance rating needs a thorough discussion on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Shopping Centers]], because I am totally at a loss as to how one would assess importance. I made [[shopping mall]] and [[strip mall]] "top" importance, but otherwise...? [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 13:30, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

== Caitlin Hill article ==

I actually think you are totally confused by the 3RR. The user has made three or four edits in the last 24 hour period, so I was warning him not to revert any more. Wikipedia custom is to warn users before their 4th edit and before reporting them, rather than just wait until they violate the rule and then report them.

I say see talk page as others wish to engage the user in a dialogue but he is just editing without doing so and so could end up being banned. I do not believe there is any requirement for me to post there.

Please consider reading up on Wikipedia policy before posting in such a sharp tone on my talk page in future. [[User:Feebtlas|Feebtlas]] 15:08, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

:First of all, I was not meaning to take "such a sharp tone" in addressing you on your talk page. I thought I was being nice. If that was not how I came off, then my apologies to you.

:Otherwise, though, the only contributor between [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Caitlin_Hill&oldid=124864270 this edit] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Caitlin_Hill&oldid=124867118 this edit] (the latter being where you mentioned the 3RR) was 82.9.207.124. Checking [[Special:Contributions/82.9.207.124|their contributions]], that IP has only made two contributions in total to Wikipedia, both to the [[Caitlin Hill]] article. Of those two contributions, one was a reversion, and one was a rewording. Therefore, under the [[Wikipedia:Three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], they had burned one of their three permitted reverts to the [[Caitlin Hill]] article. Therefore, they were still permitted two more reversions. However, as I mentioned before, if it gets to the point of making the third one, I personally think that they really ought to be looking at other avenues to resolve the problem. But under the 3RR as it currently stands, the fourth reversion of the same article is where the violation takes place. Revert three times within 24 hours, and one is still within the policy as long as one does not revert again within 24 hours.

:So that's my take on it. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 05:56, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

::Also, one more thing: RFC's are not bad things, and are not things that one ought to be intimidated by. I find RFC's quite helpful, because they basically solicit the opinions of uninterested third parties to gain a broader perspective on a topic of contention among editors. It's basically advice and nothing else. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 06:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

:::Maybe this is where the confusion is, the IP '82.9.207.124' is Impulsion, so with the anon IP and the registered account he was up to 3 reverts and could be banned if he edited again. I left this on this talk page reminding him of this and also that logging out of his account is not a way around the 3RR [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Impulsion#Caitlin_Hill]. If you need evidence that they at the same person examine both talk pages, both were involved in trying to create another page for a 'youtube celebrity' that was quickly deleted as non notable, perhaps now he is trying to snipe down other articles? [[User:Feebtlas|Feebtlas]] 10:27, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

== Thanks for the vandalism revert! ==

Thanks for removing [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Kralizec%21&diff=next&oldid=126071024] the vandalism from my user page. After I reviewed the contribution history of the IP in question, and taken in context with the warning on their talk page, I was able to determined that it was probably not vandalism but a disgruntled message that should have been on my talk page (and have moved [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Kralizec%21&diff=next&oldid=125848273] it there).

[[User:Ichormosquito|Ichormosquito]] 19:41, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

:I don't mind if you think "YouTube user" works better for TheHill88, but do you think I've provided enough so that editors can make use of the term elsewhere? [[User:Ichormosquito|Ichormosquito]] 20:00, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

::First of all, I think that the article that you have provided is a great "reliable" source of information for a lot of different articles about YouTubers and beyond. That said, however, I don't think it establishes notability for the neologism "YouTube celebrity". The way I see it, the neologism probably shouldn't be used on here until a link on [[YouTube celebrity]] turns blue - that is, until notability is sufficiently established through reliable sources for an article about it to survive an AFD discussion. I'm currently monitoring an AFD about another neologism - [[Coldspot (Wi-Fi)]] (see [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Coldspot (Wi-Fi)|AFD debate]]). Based on the way the discussion there has been going, I'd say that the article's days are numbered. So that's how I see it. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 23:55, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

:::Blue, did you say? ;)
:::I predict that even when "YouTube celebrity" can indisputably support an article, too great a lobby will want to merge it with "YouTube". I'm skipping a step. For now, however, you won't find the term on "Caitlin Hill". [[User:Ichormosquito|Ichormosquito]] 05:05, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

== Schwan's Home Service ==

I noticed you redirected Schwan's Home Service into Schwan's Food Company. I am not sure if you are familar with the company but the parent company and the home service division are two completely different entities. The amount of information on the Schwan's Home Service division is far too much to put under a single heading in the Schwan's Food Company article. Not to mention that the organization of this amount of information I don't believe can be done under the one parent company article. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Tigerman81|Tigerman81]] ([[User talk:Tigerman81|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Tigerman81|contribs]]) 01:43, 5 May 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

I have corrected this page twice. As a former Thalhimers employee, I know for a fact that when the Coliseum Mall store opened in 1976, the store's logo was installed without the apostrophe.

==[[September 24, 2005 anti-war protest]]==

I saw your revert to this article, and i just wanted to add that I have many more high res pictures of that march so if any of them would qualify to be put in that article to replace the little thing that's there now I think they probably should. However, I will upload them and leave that up to your discretion and that of the community. Also, I have no idea how to put things on Commons and tag them appropriately so people would be able to find them if they were searching for that. If you wouldn't mind giving me some pointers on that, that would be awesome. [[User:Cumulus Clouds|Cumulus Clouds]] 09:17, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

:The easiest thing to do in that case is to just upload it straight to Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org/). Add it to [[:Category:September 24, 2005 anti-war protest]].

== Adminship ==

Congratulations on what, unless something drastically changes in the very near future, appears to be your impending adminship, which I supported.

In light of this new status, and the comments made by some of the oppose !voters, I suggest that you might want to consider removing the political image from your userpage and talkpage. Although informative of your personal beliefs, it could rub some users the wrong way when they come to these pages to speak with you in your admin capacity.

This is not a ''sine qua non'' to adminship, at least in my book, but I'd appreciate your giving it some thought. Regards, [[User:Newyorkbrad|Newyorkbrad]] 20:50, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

:Your best bet is to give [[Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)]] a thorough reading, as well as [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not]]. The article in question was nominated for [[WP:CSD|speedy deletion]] under G11 - blatant advertising. However, I deleted it under criteria A7 - non-notable organization, which I think gives you the benefit of the doubt on [[WP:AGF|good faith]]. If your article satisfies the notability criteria, then you're good to go. If not, it will likely get deleted again.

You may want to actually read the article on [[Magical negro]] before calling my edit vandalism.

[[User:Captain Infinity|Captain Infinity]] 03:11, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

:For changing a link on [[God]] to [[Magical negro]] as a pipe, as people would be expected to get the former rather than the latter, that's crossing a line.

why did you touch my profile. i took the image from an article on martin. i know nothing about the image itself, nor uploaded it. regardless [[User:Sexyorge|Sexyorge]] 21:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

:That image, [[:Image:Heidegger2.jpeg]] was subject to [[WP:CSD|speedy deletion]] under criteria I6, which is for images with no fair use rationale. It had been tagged for seven days with no fair use rationale forthcoming, and thus I deleted it. I used [[WP:TW|TWINKLE]], which, when deleting images, also removes all instances of the image. Additionally, per the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria]] policy, fair use images may only be used in the article namespace. They may not be used in the talk namespace, user namespace, user talk namespace, Wikipedia namespace, etc. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 23:29, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
:::you deleted the second one even though it clearly stated fair use and had an explaination and all information was provided as the copyright holder asserted it could be used for wikipedia and non-commerical purposes. frankly, i am not going to upload any more images. it's become clear you are abusing your rights as an administrator [[User:Sexyorge|Sexyorge]] 01:18, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

If you or someone else can find an image that's in the public domain or that we can license under GFDL or a similar free license, I'll add it to the article myself. Or if you find an image that we can use under fair use and it has a detailed fair use rationale specifying exactly ''why'' it's fair use per our guidelines, we can have it. Anything less and it will be subject to deletion. That's the policy, and I've cited what those policies are.

==Andrew Lande Deletion Review==
Hi Ben, I was the creator of the Andrew Lande article and upon returning from my trip to Europe to my surprise the article was deleted. Maybe I didn't write up enough sources the first time but the guy is in fact encyclopedia worthy.

I'll cite [[WP:Notability]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability (People)]]

First the broad notability

Significant coverage - Co-written two major books published by Random House and National Geographic Books. As well as the author of Bob Hope: America's Entertainer, an awarding winning A&E television documentary.

Sources - random house, Santa Barbara News Press, Ingram, Library Journal, Etc.

Reliability - Has been Editor of Wine Newsletters, articles, television documentaries, e and books and an international Expert on Food and Wine. Trustee of the Bob Hope Foundation which awards millions of dollars every year to worth individuals and causes.

Independent of the Subject - This goes to [[WP:SPS]] partly where it passes

* it is relevant to their notability;
* it is not contentious;
* it is not unduly self-serving;
* it does not involve claims about third parties;
* it does not involve claims about events not directly related to the subject;
* there is no reasonable doubt as to who wrote it.

And also to independent third party sources like the April 2006 article about lande in the nob hill gazette and the may 21 Marilyn McMahon "Lande guides you to Best in the World" article in the Santa Barbara News Press. The cigar connoisseur was also written up in the Library Journal and Ingram all reliable substantial print sources.

Onto the specific [[Wikipedia:Notability (People)]], and to a lesser extent [[Wikipedia:Notability (books)]]

*The person has been the subject of published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject.

(The magazine articles, newspaper articles, and editorial reviews as well as his books)

*The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, which has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.

(Published Random House and National Geographic Books, well reviewed and highly ranked books on Amazon.)

I hope we can come to a consensus

An editor has asked for a [[Wikipedia:Deletion review#{{{2|Andrew Lande}}}|deletion review]] of [[:Andrew Lande]]. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. [[User:Andman8|Andman8]] 00:26, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[[User:Andman8|Andman8]] 16:28, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

:[[Andrew Lande]] was deleted through [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion]]. That's the process whereby if the proposed deletion tag sits on the article for a specified period of time, it gets deleted. Anyone can contest it by removing the tag. If it's deleted and someone contests it then, a reasonable request by an editor will restore it. So it's back, but that doesn't mean it's ineligible for [[WP:AFD|AFD]]. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 00:55, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

What would satisfy you for a source? It's not the kind of info they're likely to publish in a media guide. It's just one of the myriad of things they play over the loudspeakers and video screens. So you're most likely to see it mentioned in fans' comments about games they've been to. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:05, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:[[Wikipedia:Reliable sources]] and [[Wikipedia:Verifiability]] are the standards for what is a good citation. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 02:09, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

::That's not what I asked you. The fact that you asked for a source indicates that ''you'' don't believe it's true. So, what would convince ''you'' that it ''is'' true? [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:12, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:::No. Truth and verifiability are two different things. The standard is not whether it is true or not. The standard is whether or not it is verifiable. It is true that I am presently wearing blue jeans, a green shirt, and black flip-flops. However, it is not verifiable by reliable sources. You will find no reliable sources verifying that information, and therefore it doesn't belong in Wikipedia. Same goes here. While it may be true (I don't know), it presently needs verification by a third-party source. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 02:17, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
::::Let me try again. You plainly either don't believe or at least are skeptical about this particular fact, because you have not cited ''every'' statement in the article. So, why did you tag that ''particular'' line in the article? [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:23, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

For example, "Produced on a small ($3 million) budget, the film has turned out to be one of the most profitable of all time; since its initial release, Animal House has garnered an estimated return of more than $200 million in the form of video and DVDs, not including merchandising." Lots of unverified statements there. Why did you not tag ''those'' statements? [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:In fact, I can easily verify the "pep talk" simply by making a recording of it the next time I'm at the Metrodome. That's "primary source" verification. But how can I verify the dollar figures? Somebody could easily have just invented those numbers. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:29, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

::You cannot just make a recording and use that as a citation. How about this: Rather than argue with me (especially regarding a passage in the article that's been deleted), read the policy and then get back with me. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 02:31, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
:::It's as valid as taking a picture. And please explain why you're discriminating against that one section, when there is much more unverified info.

Don't make me take you to an admin over this. You have no right to declare that something is "unverifiable" when you have obviously not bothered to research it. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:37, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Since you're stonewalling me, here's the way around this. Rather than asserting it as an absolute fact (even though it is), I will say that the weblogs of many different teams' fans talk about this. ''That'' is a verifiable fact. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 02:50, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:I ''am'' an admin. You want the bit in there, please provide a reliable source for it. Blogs are not reliable sources. Really, please read the policy. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 02:51, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
::Fine. Then you shouldn't be stonewalling fair questions. Please tell me why you're singling out ''that particular item'', when there is so much in the article that is uncited? [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 03:00, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
:::You continue to refuse to answer my question. I guess I will have to write to MLB.COM and get a sworn affidavit on the subject. Good grief, Charlie Brown! >:( [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 03:04, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

I re-read the policies. It says weblogs are "largely" not reliable. Granted. But when you've got ''dozens of them'' making the same reference, you've got a trend. Also, according to what it says about images, if I took a picture of the stadium screen showing that clip, that would be acceptable evidence. Also, I have been amused (so to speak) over the last 2 1/2 years about this hair-splitting over "truth" vs. "verifiability". The word "verify" means ''to make true''. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 03:29, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

I have sent an e-mail to a major league club asking them to "verify" that they sometimes play the John Belushi clip as a "rally starter" in the last of the ninth. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 03:49, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:If you put information gained that way in the article, you would be citing an "unpublished source", which is against [[WP:RS]].

::Not if I can get them to put something on their website that mentions it... or, if they can point me to somewhere in MLB.COM or some other "reliable" source that already mentions it. Otherwise, next time I'm at the Metrodome, and if the Twins are trailing in the last of the ninth, I'll take a photo and post it here, which would be allowed under the image guidelines. [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 10:07, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

== [[Casey at the Bat]] ==

Oddly enough, I might need for you to weigh in on a citation debate going on in that poem. Editors keep trying to add that the phrase ''with but one more inning to play'' "has sometimes been used by optimists or comedians" to suggest it's the eighth instead of the ninth. That's logically preposterous, but more to the point, the editors need to provide an actual published, non-weblog citation of someone claiming that viewpoint. Right? [[User:Baseball Bugs|Baseball Bugs]] 10:46, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

:That seems a little weasely as well as a little off. But you are correct - they need to provide a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] for that claim. If not, slap it with a {{tl|fact}} tag and make sure it stays there until it is cited, or the passage is removed. [[User:SchuminWeb|SchuminWeb]] ([[User talk:SchuminWeb|Talk]]) 23:22, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

::I think I've got the one guy convinced to find a citation. But I'll do the fact-tag if it comes to that. As far as the IP address rantings on the talk page, I'm ignoring that.

Hi,

A recent entry was deleted to which was flagged as purely advertising a product/company. To my understanding the entry (SnapVillage) can be 'fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.'

I read that it was a good idea not to just post again and to ask to be able to repost. Please let me know if this would be ok to rewrite my entry so that it is not promotional and strictly factual.
