== Need Deletion Advice ==
Dear Sir, I noticed your note on the [[William H. Kennedy]] and some editors think that his new publisihing house [[Mystic Valley Media]] in non-notable and should be deleted. The book covers are being displayed at an NYC art show and I think that makes the company note worthy. Please advise on this.

== Need Vandalism Advice ==

Hi TexasAndroid, I am new to Wikipedia and need your advice about a vandelism matter that came up on an article you worked on at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_H._Kennedy

There was an act of vandelism there today see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=William_H._Kennedy&diff=64350590&oldid=64248612

If the vandels come back should I just keep changing the edit back or should I ask for third party resolution?

I also saw your notation that the article needs to be more wikified. Can you be more specific? Sorry if I am a pain but I really want to learn! Please leave some advice here.

Thanks 617USA (New and needing improvement)

== Encyclopedist ==

Hello, TexasAndroid. You seem to be the admin. who blocked [[User:Encyclopedist|Encyclopedist]]'s account. When may he edit again? I find that I could collaborate with him on Latin American history projects - especially the article at [[Military history of Mexico]]. I am pretty sure that whatever he did isn't so bad, or that his work with articles overshadows it. I am currently working on Brazilian military history projects, so I am in no rush. Just asking a general question. [[User:OMEN|OMEN]] 19:42, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

:This is very unfortunate. Perhaps if I could contact him, I could get him to apologize. I wish I had some help - it's sad that this happened, considering that he was, I assume a good contributor. [[User:OMEN|OMEN]] 03:04, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

==Addendum to "Here is my attack"==
Well, I hace confessed to vandalizing for the past several months, and for permanently scarring my reputation. I want to state now that Tex's contention that I haven't left is entirely false, I only came back on the 23rd to voice my opinion against RobChurch, and his RfA.
Well, my attack: I am sorry for being the CIyde vandal and for my attacks on John Reid. I am sorry that I came here, stressing myself, and others out. To further emphasize this, I did create an account with the intention of it being constructive after a three month long meltdown. Hopefully, I will be able to edit constructively, and I am sorry for all the trouble I cause. Yes, people reform, and to be honest, the point of the vandalism was to attract attention to what I see as incivility, and the reasons several of my friends have left here.
But vandalism is vandalism, so I better quit before I get in trouble.
I am sorry I was ever apart of the project. I DONT want to be a Brian Chase. But, at least I did edit here constructively for a year and three months before I went haywire.[[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<font color="#000000">'''''ε'''''</font>]][[User:Encyclopedist|<font color="#000000">'''γκυκλοπ'''</font>]][[User_talk:Encyclopedist|<font color="#808080">'''αίδεια'''</font>]][[Wikipedia|<font color="#808080">'''*'''</font>]]14:34, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

== [[Rakshasa (fiction)]] ==

How about putting it under [[:Category:Public domain characters]], or perhaps a new category : [[:Category:Mythological characters in fiction]] (which could also include the numerous comic book characters based on mythology)? --[[User:Grammatical error|Grammatical error]] 15:01, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

:I agree with what you just proposed about creating a new category and subcategorising it under [[:Category:Mythological characters]]. Also, there are many "mythological" characters in comic books (who will be put in multiple categories if this goes ahead, because of the obvious [[:Category:Marvel Comics characters]] or whatever that will already be there) that it would be a useful category and quickly filled up. --[[User:Grammatical error|Grammatical error]] 15:12, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

::Wow...that was quick work. There is also some stuff on the [[Asura (disambiguation]] page that could be cut and pasted into a new [[Asura (fiction]] article in the new category, leaving just the important mythological information and a link to the new fiction page.--[[User:Grammatical error|Grammatical error]] 15:24, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

== thank you ==

thx for pointing me to [[Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Tobias Conradi]]. Btw, you can call me Tobias, but I will not WP:CIV you. I know people in Germany that find it offensive to be called by plain family name. best [[User:Tobias Conradi|Tobias Conradi]] [[User_talk:Tobias Conradi|(Talk)]] 19:22, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

== [[Helen Betty Osborne]] ==

You did not complete the process of registering your copyright violation concerns regarding the article [[Helen Betty Osborne]]. So, I reverted your edit. I have reviewed the link you provided [http://www.maoritelevision.com/latestnews/friday_feature_conspiracy_of_silence.htm] and found that just three paragraphs out of the article were copied from (or near copies of) the link. I have completely rewritten or removed the offending paragraphs. If you find any further parts of the article that you consider to be infringing on copyright, please identify those parts and we can deal with them. I would prefer not to have an entire article that is mostly original content deleted just becase a few small elements of it are in violation when we can easily correct such small problems. Thanks. —[[User:GrantNeufeld|GrantNeufeld]] 20:25, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

== Meta-humans ==

What sort of DC meta-humans would fall under the umbrage of Mutation origin instead of Science origin, then? [[User:Ryulong|Ryulong]] 21:09, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
: Good question. I really have no idea. DC is not normally into the whole Mutant thing. There likely are a few, somewhere, but finding them might mean sifting through the pages of a lot of DC characters. :) You could also look through the history of the page and see who originally added that comment, and then see if they are still active on the project. If so, maybe they can give you an idea of what they had in mind. :) - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 21:15, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
:: I'll check on that. [[User:Ryulong|Ryulong]] 21:18, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
::: It appears that the first person who put that in used [[Fire (comics)]] as an example, but she got her powers from an external source (Pyroplasm, or some sort of accident), and was then had her minor fire-breathing powers magnified by a "meta-gene bomb". With this, I don't think there are really any DC characters who are considered "Mutation". [[User:Ryulong|Ryulong]] 21:24, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
:::: Better to remove the DC reference then, than to give incorrect examples. If anyone can come up with an appropriate example, it can be re-added easily enough. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 21:28, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

== AVB ==

No idea who set it to angry, I reset it to calm -- [[User:Tawker|Tawker]] 22:00, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

==[[User:Netscott]]==
This all stems from a debate at [[:Category:Anti-Semitic people]]. I do not have a problem with an administrator or editor advising me on my talk page about an issue with images; however, when an editor simply changes a user page without any discussion that is vandalism. I advised him to stop and he did not, so I reciprocated. Unfortunately, instead of remaining neutral you have chosen sides. This reflects poorly on your ability to be an impartial administrator, in fact it could be interpreted as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators#Administrator_abuse Administrator abuse].

:TexasAndroid, thank you for your council. The removal of the policy violation image wasn't done in "retaliation". Please see [[User_talk:MONGO#User:Netscott|this talk on MONGO's talk page]]. Given the above comment here, the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ANetscott&diff=63406839&oldid=63346737 vandalism] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category_talk%3AAnti-Semitic_people&diff=63411751&oldid=63411027 this sort of commentary] I think we can both agree that [[User:Porky Pig]] is liable to become known as a disruptive editor.

Since you've spoken with [[User:JB196]] about content disputes re: {{tl|cite}}, I figured I'd drop you a heads-up that I'm concerned JB is using them as an alternate means of edit warring rather than legitimate discussion. Based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=74205368#User:JB196 this AN thread] and JB's status as the primary author of [[Vic Grimes]] (virtually every statement to which JB has added {{tl|cite}} was in his version of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vic_Grimes&oldid=52685041 11 May]), I don't see these as being a prelude to good faith action.

== [[:Category:Pacific typhoons]] and [[:Category:Atlantic hurricanes]], etc. ==

Might I ask why you're removing these categories from some articles? Have you looked at the categories? Most if not all of the storms forming in their respective basins are put into that category by default - I don't see any parent categories that some articles are in, except for the typhoon seasons as well. Unless you're willing to decategorise every single one of the 400 or so articles in these categories, I think you should restore them and perhaps discuss it - the fact that there are over 400 articles in them means that it's an established process within the wikiproject that we put storm articles into these categories. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 02:13, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
:I'd appreciate if you could hold off for a while. I'll bring this up to the wikiproject. Cheers. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 13:09, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

The only response I've gotten so far:
<blockquote>Principle 7 of [[Wikipedia:Categorization]]: ''Bend the rules above when it makes sense, but only if no other solution can be found.'' Having all the articles in the subcategories makes our organization much easier and more intuitive, so I really don't see the point in changing everything.

:<blockquote>On a slightly different note, you have not directly protested my removal of the meteorology year categories from the same articles. This was being done under the same parent/grandparent logic. Is this change more acceptable to you?</blockquote> Yes, it is. Many articles don't even use the XXXX meteorology categories; that one I don't think is such a concern as those categories don't directly affect the [[WP:WPTC|WPTC]] categorisation imo. I'll leave a word at the talk page. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 14:28, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Been a while. I think that whatever consensus there is is for the old categories. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 16:47, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
:Umm, could you please restore the categories? &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 09:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Should I go restore them myself, then? Jeez. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 11:27, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
:Okay, maybe that was a bit snappy. Still, if you don't want to do it, I will probably do so myself - I don't think there was a consensus for ''removing'' them in the first place. &ndash; [[User:Chacor|Ch]][[User talk:Chacor|acor]] 11:31, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

== Featured list candidate ==

I thought you'd like to know that [[List of United States federal legislation]] has been nominated to be a [[WP:FL|Featured List]]. It needs 4 votes by [[October 2]] [[2006]].

As I have labored hard on the article, I would appreciate your looking it over. You can find a discussion here: [[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of United States federal legislation]].

Thank you!

Have you finished your planned work on these articles? If so, I will proceed to delete them as per the discussion. [[User talk:(aeropagitica)|(aeropagitica)]] 20:36, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

== WP Sailor Moon cats ==

Hello. I see that you speedied these 3 cats. I don't know if the author re-tagged them of if you saw the discussion at cfd? Obviously, if it was the former, you may not be aware that they were initially listed at cfd. Could you please close the discussions on these?. In case you want a link, they are [[Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 October 1#WikiProject Sailor Moon characters|here]].

I believe it was you who blocked me...

Anyway, I was wondering if you would consider unblocking me. I am sorry, and I have just spent a good half hour looking round pages, and editing Billingham;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billingham

Would you please unblock me, even just for a little while?

And wow, you work at google? wow....

== Columbus Day ==

I'd like to thank you for your semi-protection of the Columbus Day article and the subsequent cleanup following all of the moves. Sorry to post that to the wrong notice board, but I appreciate you taking the time to fix things. --[[User:Dual Freq|Dual Freq]] 01:32, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

== Thanks for work on Freddy Fender ==

I wasn't sure about posting the thank-you for your simply fixing the categories on the [[Freddy Fender]] article until I saw how much of your talk page gets sucked up by people arguing about sockpuppets and edits they ''didn't'' think you should have made. Clearly you could use a little positive reinforcement. So I'd just like to toss in a ''gracias'' for helping out on an article that's going to see more visits than usual in the coming weeks. :) [[User:Lawikitejana|Lawikitejana]] 01:33, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

== Repeated attack on [[Carole Keeton Strayhorn]] ==

Thanks for continuing to revert the goofy edits by 66.25.158.112 to the Strayhorn article. Silliness like that makes Wikipedia look like MySpace. At what point can a user like that be blocked -- say for about three weeks, maybe? --[[User:Robertb-dc|Robertb-dc]] 16:55, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

== Block on 207.144.70.66 ==

Hi TexasAndroid, I thought you would want to know that [[User:207.144.70.66]] (who you blocked on the 3rd of November, [the second block on this number!]) is back again with a new bevy of vandalism. [[User:Marasmusine|Marasmusine]] 18:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)


== Lucille Ball ==
Hi TexasAndroid, any reason why you keep reverting this article? I do not see any cases of apparent vandalism. {{unsigned|152.163.100.201}}
: No vandalism, other than the fact that she's been dead for many years, and you keep reverting the page to a version that makes it look as if she's still alive. That's pretty much vandalism in my book. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 19:37, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

: Dead? That's a terrible thing to say. And why do you sau that I was reverting the article? It looks to me that that was an AOL IP address. How can you be sure that it was I? {{unsigned|152.163.100.201}}

:: As to the first part, I'm not going to even bother with that silliness. As to the second, while I cannot be 100% certain, I would say it's a very, very, very remote possibility that there would be two different people, both with shifting AOL IPs, showing an interest in this situation. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 19:45, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

:: Ok, so if a user presents an alternative view point, you consider it "silliness"? That's really good wikipedian spirit. I think you owe the previous user an apology. {{unsigned|64.12.116.201}}

::: It's silly to say that it's terrible to say someone is dead. Oh, and the one just above is yet another AOL IP, and thus is most likely the same person as the previous comments. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 22:03, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

: Maybe the poster was under the impression that she was not dead? Who knows... {{unsigned|64.12.116.201}}
:: The fact that you keep saying "the poster" and "previous user", when it is totally obvious that you are the same person, makes it very hard to put much faith in anything else you say. As I said above, the chances that two (or more), unconnected, AOL posters would get wrapped up into this thing at the same time is almost nonexistant. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 22:14, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

: I am not the previous poster; in fact, I rather stumbled on the page by accident and noticed that it was blocked. I am certainly not a vandal. {{unsigned|64.12.116.201}}

: Ok, why aren't you answering me?????????? Some administrator... {{unsigned|205.188.116.137}}
:: Because I had said all I needed to say, and you had asked nothing new for me to answer. I had no need to get in the last word, so I let your last comment stand as the end of things. I will say that the current repeated blanking of this talk page does little to get me to beleive your protests that you are not a vandal. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 18:26, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

: Ok, did I miss something? When did I EVER blank your page????????? {{unsigned|205.188.116.137}}

== Parliamentary constituencies are generally notable ==

Parliamentary constituencies, like towns and cities and U.S. congressional districts, are generally notable. They sometimes require separate articles when their boundaries are different than the community after which they are named. Because of this, I removed the {{tl|prod}} from [[Old Leighlin (Parliament of Ireland constituency)]]. --[[User:TruthbringerToronto|TruthbringerToronto]] ([[User_talk:TruthbringerToronto|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/TruthbringerToronto|contribs)]] 21:32, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
