Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 14:06, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)

Bwahh? Raul Ashraf

Apparently you and I were both browsing the recent changes page, but I have to question your decision to put Rauf Ashraf in the quick delete pile. I added a cite and wiki template, and really I think that's all there needs to be, I mean the guy notes that this guy's company or whatever as achieved billion dollar assets, and I think that qualifies as a notable biography. Could you chat with me on the talk page a bit? Thanks, Danielfolsom 03:11, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Ya but a quick delete doesn't give the author much time... Hmm, I don't know, I'm really hesitant to take out a bio with this first sentence,

"He started at the largest asset management firm on Wall Street and worked for five years with two of the world’s largest hedge funds with peak assets of over one billion dollars."

Honestly I don't know much about the guy, but you should def. note on the talkpage what you want the author to do. Danielfolsom 03:17, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Ohhhh my bad, I didn't know the page was something different

before, apparetnly your a bit faster than I am at browsing the recent changes/

By the way...

My page was NOT offensive in any particular way. VeyronX93

"Notability," regarding Wiki page for Xfanz.com

Good morning! I copied this from the AFD entry for Xfanz.com:

• OK, I've done some reading about the notability guidelines for Wikipedia. I'd like to call your attention to the seventh prong:

^ Content that is distributed by independent online sites will almost certainly satisfy the first criterion. However, this criterion ensures that our coverage of such content will be complete regardless. For example, Ricky Gervais had a podcast distributed by The Guardian. Such distributions should be nontrivial. Although GeoCities and Newgrounds are exceedingly well known, hosting content on them is trivial.

Many Web sites use XFANZ RSS feeds for their news content. One prominent site that uses our content is Booble.com (Booble's Wikipedia entry), the adult search engine:

http://booble.com/nation/

You'll see that we are the sole news provider for one of the most popular adult search engines on the Web.

I believe this should satisfy the requirement for notability.

Thanks!

Wikifascist

This term is quickly moving from nonsense to mainstream slang. When I first started hearing it, I had trouble finding a definition for it. It would be helpful for Wikipedia to carry a working definition of a word that has quickly entered our language and is being legitimized. When do new terms coined on the Internet (like "blog") move from being nonsense to commonly used slang? In Defense of the Artist 23:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

So how old does a word have to be before being defined as a neologism? ...and what criteria would back up the legitimacy of slang other than it's common usage? In Defense of the Artist 00:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)\

Thanks, I'll hit my periodicals where Wikislang's been dropped to find more sources. In Defense of the Artist 00:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Main Page revert

Hi Mhking. I noticed that you reverted this edit to talk:Main Page, calling it vandalism. I don't think it qualifies as such. Could you explain why you view it as vandalism? Picaroon 01:39, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Removing my speedy deletion tag

Just wondering why you removed my speedy deletion tag from How to tell the difference between a chess geek and a computer geek and saw fit to place your own over it... please contact me back on my talk page. ScorpO 02:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Alright thanks for the fast reply! ScorpO 02:25, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Lyrics

OK. That edit MUST be good. Since ONE line from Love Profusion was added and criticised negatively, I added ONE Live To Tell line and added a source that criticises it positively. Editing a Madonna page is so hard. This I know. lol

However, Madonna's vocals on Live To Tell were considered her best by others at the time.

They deemed Live To Tell's lyrics poignant. "A man call tell a thousand lies. I've learned my lesson well. Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned. 'Til then it will burn inside of me."

Madonna also received good reviews from some reviewers for her Love Don't Live Here Anymore cover which was described as "heartfelt vocal".

Some critics do see Madonna as a talented songwriter.

skywaybridge.com

why are you refusing to allow a link to skywaybridge.com? it is a free site with a wealth of information about the bridge and suicides from it. i make zero money on it and see no reason why you refuse to allow an external link. please review the site.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.200.105.180 (talk) 13:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC).

Vandalism?

Hi - which page was inappropriate, that may be deemed as vandalism? I assure you that all of the pages that I have just edited were done with the best possible intentions. I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

sunshine skyway bridge external links

on your 'external links'section, the listing "The Sunshine Skyway Bridge" and it's redirect to http://www.bridgepix.com/ is someone's personal site. they collected pictures of bridges. the link below it, Sunshine Skyway Bridge page at Interstate275Florida.com and it's redirect to http://www.interstate275florida.com/ssb.htm, a personal site someone created about the driving over the bridge. with the same logic you use to remove my link to the skyway bridge, i expect you to remove those links as well. please explain to me why those have more validity then mine? perhaps you have issue with the site contents. is this the case? my site has zero personal relevance to me. i don't share recipes, i post no pictures of me on vacation, we don't blog. it's 100% about the skyway bridge and what happens on and around it. read the site. i feel you prejudice my site for some reason. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.200.105.180 (talk) 18:18, 8 January 2007 (UTC).

i think you are prejudiced. my site has many skyway facts and a warning to those not wishing to view what may be disturbing to them. i wish i had the time you spend policing wikipedia by swinging your big censorship club at every opportunity. you know you are wrong. good luck with that.

Ok, thanks for the help. So I would have to find an article or something about it on the internet? I will try. If I can't, then I guess it isn't good enough for wikipedia, and I totally understand. Thanks. Fortyniners9999 06:16, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Nonsence??

mhking, just because you dont know what the article was about, didnt mean that others would to, therefore i think that you were innapropiate in you actions of deleting it. i am not impressed with the way you responded to my requests and the way i was spoken to, you were aggressive and i was polite. you have changed my view on wikipedia (in a bad way)

Duffel

It deleted the Corey Duffel page on me, I did what you said, and had 3 reference links, 4 externals, and it was still deleted. Look at my other pages and tell me what went wrong with this one.

FFF (artist)

How can you speedy delete the article about FFF (artist) if the deletion is contested? I clearly says that when someone contests a speedy deletion, the article can only be deleted via the normal deletion procedure.

"An article that fails to even claim that the subject of the article is notable can be speedily deleted under criterion A7, however. A mere claim of notability, even if contested, may avoid deletion under A7 and require a full Article for Deletion process to determine if the subject of the article is notable." WP:BAND

Her the article was deleted a couple of hours after the speedy deletion was announced. Why would I even bother to write anything for the Wikipedia if this is the way it's governed. No one has even bothered to read the talk page and the arguments that are posed against deletion. This suck big time. You can count me out as a wikipedian if this is the way things are run around here.

psi36 17:52, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

The article had been deleted before, that's why I included an explanation in the talk page at the same time as I wrote the article. The first time the article was deleted I hadn't even had the chance to contest it (I'm not the original author). Is there any way to get this article on here again as I'm convinced it does meet the requirements. The only problem is that the articles I could reference to are in Dutch. And the record labels (and other artist on the roster of those labels) that prove the importance of FFF within the breakcore genre are only notable within that genre. So someone who isn't into breakcore probably won't know them. I don't think that should be a reason not to include this article, since then all articles about artists in less known genres should be deleted. How can I restore this article without it being deleted again the same day? psi36 18:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

BTW: sorry if my first reaction was a bit crude. I didn't check whether it was you who actually deleted the page. Apparently it was someone else. psi36 18:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Scrivinaaf

I agree that you should delete this page. I didn't know (or remember) that you shouldn't do this. Sorry for any problems that I have caused. --Blue73 18:51, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Mary Easaw-John

I just placed the entry on Wikipedia when I got a notice of speedy deletion.. I haven't even perfected the article yet.. For ur info, Mary is the Chief Dietitian of the Malaysian National Heart Institute, which is Malaysia's referral centre for cardiology and it is a government institute. She has been responsible for bringing dietetics in Malaysia, which was once an unknown field, to the forefront.

The American Overseas Dieticians Association (AODA) appointed her as country representative for Malaysia in 2004. She is also the first Malaysian dietician to receive the International Dietetic Network STAR Award bestowed by the AODA for 2005/2006. The award also makes her the first Asian to be recognised for leadership skills and promoting nutrition and dietetics locally and internationally as a country representative.

Please reconsider ur speedy deletion whatchamacallit.. OKtuck 06:27, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

¿WOOFY?

Why the heck did you delete my woofy page? of course it wasn't good yet, it had been up for 5 seconds, how the hell do you expect to judge an article in that amount of time. WIKIPEDIA BULLY. You are not cooler than everyone else because you have administrative powers. Get off your high horse and stop being such a douchbag. give people the time to add substance to their articles before you go deleting them. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO WOOFY IS, YET YOU CALL IT NONSENSE THE MINUTE YOU SEE IT. THE HEADS OF WIKIPEDIA WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS, AND YOU WILL BE RELEAVED OF ALL YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES. A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE HAS THE POWER TO DO THAT TO YOU, AHAHAHAHAHA. YOU MESSED WITH THE WRONG GUY, LOSER.

Oh c'mon

You're really gonna split hairs with me over which speedy template to use? It's going to be deleted either way. For the record, though, he DID ask for it to be deleted, on the very last line. So db-author is appropriate. Jhinman 19:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

banned?

It seems as you've been bullying alot of Pages. Who nows you might even get banned from being an admin. what makes these articles worthy of youre deletion anyway?

I want to make an article

I wanted to create an article but you deleted it. It was my own creation and it meant alot to me. If i could just make one page about my poem then it would make me very happy
