My RfA

Thank you for participating in my RfA. It was successful, and I am now, may God have mercy on us all, an administrator. Look at all the new buttons! I had heard about 'protect,' 'block user,' and 'delete,' but no one told me about 'kill,' 'eject,' and 'purée.' I appreciate the trust the community has in me, and I'll try hard not to delete the main page or block Jimbo. -FisherQueen (Talk) 17:46, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Hi, for helping me with my userpage, I gave you a "Thank You" Barnstar. It's on your page right now. WikiTaco 22:18, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Darren Shan

Is it worth getting the page at least semi-protected, given the amount of vandalism it seems to be attracting at the moment? Giles Bennett ^{(Talk, Contribs)} 13:35, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's borderline at the moment. It's getting a good amount of anonymous vandalism in the last 3 hours, but about half of it is from repeat vandals who can be dealt with via warning and blocking. I'll be watching it now, and I will probably only protect it if we see several different new IPs vandalize within the next few hours. Leebo ^T/C 13:41, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it only took about 20 minutes for it to get vandalized by 3 different users again. Semi-protected for a couple days. Leebo ^T/C 14:04, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Look on the bright side - it frees you up to go off and do something better! Will keep an eye on it. Giles Bennett ^{(Talk, Contribs)} 14:06, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Although it would appear as though User:Ernestolynch is not a fan of Mr. Shan's either... Giles Bennett ^{(Talk, Contribs)} 16:27, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm... I blocked him for 48 hours. I was torn, because he's been around for several years, and this was his first block. But I'm also shocked it's his first block, as he has a history of pushing the envelope and just barely not being blocked, and also waiting long periods of time between vandalism. Leebo ^T/C 16:32, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was a little surprised on looking at his history to see that he'd been around for a while, but saw from the warnings on his talk page that there was a history of problems...guess he just woke up in a bad mood, I suppose! Giles Bennett ^{(Talk, Contribs)} 16:54, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Addleshaw Goddard

There's been some subsequent vandalism since User:Ernestolynch earlier in the day - single purpose accounts, by the look of them. I and other have reverted and warned, but it's the same vandalism we saw with Darren Shan - more than a coincidence, I guess. Giles Bennett ^{(Talk, Contribs)} 18:59, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nonsense Pages

Hey I read your rant on nonsense pages, and I admit I do mark neologisms as nonsense all the time. In this case what CSD criteria should be used? Wildthing61476 18:36, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, also (and I probably should check the the talk page for this!) has there been any consideration given for creating a CD category for hoax/neologism articles? Wildthing61476 19:47, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Getsumen_to_heiki_mina.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Getsumen_to_heiki_mina.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 18:48, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Fair use rationale for Image:Getsumen_to_heiki_mina.JPG

Resolved

– The fair use rationale was there, but a more substantial one has been added in the {{non-free media rationale}} template

Hi ShakespeareFan00. In the warning template you left about the image I uploaded, it indicates that there is no fair use rationale or explanation of fair use. There is one, below the licensing template, but are you indicating that this is insufficient? I can write a rationale that uses the {{non-free media}} template, but it will say generally the same thing. Thanks for your input. Leebo ^T/C 19:09, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The boiler plate tag is not the rationale, There needs to be an IN DEPTH rationale. You might want to see what other uploaders have used. ShakespeareFan00 19:12, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin

Dear, Leebo you are not an administrator please stop pretending to be one Physik

I am an admin. You can verify this here or see my successful request for adminship. Leebo ^T/C 13:28, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Me As Admin

Leebo can you make me an admin User:Physik

Only bureaucrats can make another user an administrator, and this is almost exclusively through the requests for adminship process. As others have said, I think you should refrain from requesting adminship at this time, since you do not have sufficient experience in administrative areas of Wikipedia. Leebo ^T/C 13:33, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin Part 2

But how did you become an admin? User:Physik

If you read my request for adminship you will see that another user, Merope, felt I was qualified to be an administrator and offered to nominate me. After I answered the questions on the RfA form, other users commented and enough supported my request that a bureaucrat made me an administrator. If you mean "how" as in "how did I gain the experience", read the answers to my questions in the request. Leebo ^T/C 13:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin Part III

you know i wanted to become one and i asked them on the request for adminship board and they wouldent promote me--Physik 13:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's unlikely that your request would succeed as of right now, because you have a small number of edits and very few are to the encyclopedia or administrative area. Most are to your user page. I would advise reading the page that describes what admins do to see why you would likely not be ready to fulfill these tasks. Leebo ^T/C 13:46, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki

Say how long have you been on the wiki and if you really were a buracrut will you promote me User:Physik

I've been a regular editor with this username since December 2006, though I edited anonymously from several different IP addresses before registering. I can't really answer the second part of your question, because I am not a bureaucrat and do not see myself wishing to take on that role in the foreseeable future. Leebo ^T/C 13:58, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Lewy

No one has yet done anything about "kingseason's" additions about himself to the Dr. Lewy. entry. He has re-entered his entire bibliography and a lot of other extraneous material.

Adoption

Dear, Leebo i have adopted you as well as User:Evilclown93 i have put in one tab that says that youve been adopted--Physik 14:56, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate the gesture, Physik, but as an administrator and experienced Wikipedian, I don't really have a need to be adopted. If you meant for me to adopt you, that would be something I might consider. I think you could use some assistance in learning more about Wikipedia. Leebo ^T/C 15:22, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Experienced User

Lebo how did you become an experienced user you just signed here in December 2007 oh and how do you know how to do like <dive and a bunch of other stuff now how did you learn that and why can i be an admin User:Physik

Thanks

Hey, leebo, thanks for getting rid of what i said on that page... that would of gotten me in alot of trouble, and i did manage to fix the article, so do you know how to mark a article as a "stub" i need to mark that article as such, and i would apreciate it if you, or someone else could tell me.

Mike Stowell

Mike Stowell from the USA deserves his own page on Wikipedia. Please allow this. He is an extraordinary pastor and entrepeneur.

Loading the new page for the American Mike Stowell.

Could you please do this for me now? Thanks

Mike Stowell

Mike Stowell meets the notability because he has education accomplishments that are incredible. He also is a very well known person in West Michigan and in Christian circles all over the country. His ability to build a church from the ground up to where it is now is very rare. He also is a very respected businessman in the West Michigan area. He has several articles that have been published in the newspapers. His messages are broadcasted on the internet and sold.

I was trying to start a page for Ipernity www.ipernity.com it is a social content sharing site.

On the flickr wiki I found the following: "Of the sites that offer free photosharing, most can be broken up into advertising-supported media plays, such as ipernity, pxSpot, Pikeo, vMix, AlbumTown, Flickr, FotoFly Twango, Euro Photo Club, Fotki, Fotolog, Fotopic, Ringo,Webshots, Zooomr, Photobucket, Box.net,Woophy, Zillauser.com, pix01, ComBoost, woophy and KlikShare and online photo finishing sites, such as ImageStation, Ofoto and Shutterfly, where photo sharing is a vehicle to sell prints or other merchandise."

some of the above have wiki pages, some do not. does wiki recieve money from yahoo? (parent of flickr?) is this why there is no ipernity wiki page?

Recently, many members of the flickr community have migrated over to ipernity. I was suprised that there is not an ipernity listing in wiki. (although there is for flickr).

please note also on the flickr wiki: Censorship controversy On June 12, 2007, in the wake of the rollout of localized language version of the site, Flickr implemented a user-side rating system for filtering out potentially controversial photos. Simultaneously, users with accounts registered with Yahoo subsidiaries in Germany, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Korea were prevented from viewing photos rated "moderate" or "restricted" on the three-part scale used. Subsequently, many German Flickr users in particular protested against the new restrictions, claiming unwanted censorship from Flickr and Yahoo. [2]

Flickr management, unwilling to go into legal detail, implied that the reason for the stringent filtering were unusually strict age-verification laws in Germany. The issue received some attention in the German national media, especially in online publications. Initial reports indicated that Flickr's action might be sensible, if unattractive, precautions against prosecution[3], with later coverage implying that Flickr's action may have been unnecessarily strict. [4]

On June 20, 2007 Flickr reacted by granting German users access to "moderate", but not "restricted" images, and hinted at a future solution involving advanced age-verification procedures for Germany, though no mention was made of Singapore, Hong Kong or Korea.

Apparently unrelated to the above, users in mainland China have been denied access to Flickr by Chinese ISPs since early June, 2007.

The site is also completely blocked in the United Arab Emirates.

Agitation (film)

I have started a page called Agitation and its true ive read that there will be a movie like that so do you believe me or are you going to delete it--Physik 17:09, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't you think it would have been better to ask me first before creating it? I think you know the answer to your question, which makes me wonder why you came and told me about the article... but anyway... It's not a proper article, since it cites no sources and states that no details are known... not even who's making the film! How would you have a source that states a film will be made without it saying who's making it? It should be deleted unless you can provide some sources. I think the main issue with this can be summed up by this. Leebo ^T/C 17:18, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mike Stowell

Leebo,

You didn't respond to the last message I had sent. Mike Stowell in Michigan has a lot more notability than the Mike Stowell in England. No one has heard of the English Mike Stowell. Please reconsider the credentials for the American Mike Stowell, he deserves to be listed here in this encyclopedia. I hope this isn't an issue of religious discrimination -- I thought you guys were supposed to be openminded.

Re:Agitation

ive finally discovered that Wes Craven is directing it and i also here a rumor on some kind of website that David Spade might be one of the actors of the film

Your opinion welcome at deletion review for Plot of Les Mis

After Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Plot of Les Misérables closed as a deletion, I'm challenging the way the closing administrator acted as in violation of Wikipedia rules. Your participation is welcome at that discussion, Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 July 14. Please keep in mind that only arguments related to either new information or to how Wikipedia rules were violated or not violated in closing the discussion will be considered. It isn't a replay of the original AfD. I'm familiar with WP:CANVASSING and I am alerting everyone who participated in that discussion to the deletion review. I won't contact anyone again on this topic, and I apologize if you consider this note distracting. Noroton 04:38, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shared accounts

Sorry, we had no idea. We actually started this account after we found some very dubious "vanity page" type information on Wikipedia and went to what I think was some place on "village pump" to report it. The person there knew they were talking to two peope and suggested we get an id. So we did.

If only once person only actually contributed (it must be admited that I have become interested in cleanig up some articles while my writing partner thinks it's all a bit of a snoozer) and the other just kibbitzes vai IM is that ok? We'd note it on our user page and all. BiAndBi 16:17, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you both have access (i.e. are aware of the password) then it's disallowed by the username policy. If you want to change the password so that only one of you knows it, and still contribute collaboratively, I suppose there wouldn't be anything wrong with that. That would pretty much be the same as helping a friend contribute. Leebo ^T/C 16:21, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK will do (but I'll hold you responsible when I forget my new password and can't log in - smile).

BTW something I don't understand, I didn't see your reply for a while, wasn't it supposed to go back onto my discussion page, so that little reminder pops up? BiAndBi 18:24, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi, thank you for earlier removing a deletion from one of my articles - I appreciate it. I have a question, I was looking through some random articles and noticed that this site Band From TV had a link to MySpace. I cehcked the rules and it said to avoid that but did not say it was forbidden. Can you clear this up if it should be removed or not? Again, thanks for everything Sphufounder 21:35, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

"You" Time Person of the Year

I have to contradict you on your interpretation of the "You" for Time's Person of the Year. The TIME magazine gives the meaning of you as people:

And for seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game, TIME's Person of the Year for 2006 is you.

BBC gives the interpretation as:

...growth and influence of user-generated content on the internet.

That appears to have absolutely nothing to do with the planet Earth. So the template is inappropriate. Sorry. — RJH (talk) 19:46, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

Notability is asserted through providing sources to verify that a company meets the guidelines for notability of companies. It is not a factor of the kinds of ingredients the company uses. None of the articles tagged for deletion have independent sources for any information. Leebo T/C 16:52, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Which article are we discussing - which company? Noles1984 16:56, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fromm Family Foods, By Nature, and Addiction Foods. It applies to all 3 of them. Sorry for not being more specific. Leebo ^T/C 16:57, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Addiction Foods I'd like reinstated. It is the only pet food manufacturer on the planet that uses kangaroo and common brushtail possum as lead ingredients - helping the ecology of New Zealand and Australia. That's notable. Fromm Family is an old company, a leader in holistic foods manufacturing and The Fromm Family introduced the first canine distemper vaccine. By Nature uses unique ingredients in their formulas as well. Noles1984 17:17, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Those things are interesting, but they don't establish notability, as defined by the criteria. You may disagree, but that's the definition. All that is required is for independent sources to be added to the article. Without them, not only do articles not assert notability, but they're also not proper encyclopedia articles. Encyclopedia articles rely on what reliable sources have recorded about a subject, not just information from the subject. Leebo ^T/C 17:25, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can't do that for Addiction Foods since someone deleted it :-) I'd like to expand on the ecological benefits of that company. Noles1984 17:32, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored Addiction Foods and added a hangon tag. Please go to the talk pages for the articles and present your case for not having them deleted. Try to focus on adding sources rather than appealing to the interesting facts about the companies. Leebo ^T/C 17:38, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did. I was just notifying users in the project of the controversy. I was trying to get people to know about it because this will likely require consensus.

John Mustang AfD

Greetings! In Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Mustang, if I read it right, you did a Google search and turned up nothing on the subject. Did I understand you right? I specifically ask because if you look at the contributions of the original editor, User:JohnMustang, there's a pattern of vandalism with everything except for this article. Did you find anything to suggest that this is an obscure topic and not something absolutely bogus? —C.Fred (talk) 02:52, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm getting the impression that the creator of the article has written some piece of fiction with his friends, and he's trying to use Wikipedia to document it. That's all, I expect. Whether it's an obscure topic or something completely bogus, the deletion process is going to be the same. Leebo ^T/C 03:04, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not entirely. If it's completely bogus and a bad-faith edit, then I'm willing to speedily delete it as blatant vandalism. If it's a good-faith edit on a non-notable subject, then I'm willing to give some benefit of the doubt. —C.Fred (talk) 16:09, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with your assessment of possible situations, but I still think it was just a non-notable piece of fiction. I don't get the sense that it was a bad faith creation, even after the other nonsense that the creator did. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing the AfD snowed a few days early though.

Need help on editing issues

Hello. I was wondering if I could ask for your help in settling an editing matter. One editor proposes character name changes since he/she don't seem to agree with the official english version and prefers what he/she deducts as the right translation. For instance: english publication says Rubel, Japanese phonetics say Ruvur. Said Editor prefers to spell it as Louvr. Debate is on going at: Claymore Discussion. Thank you. -Mickey

Admin

Yeah, why can't Physik be an administrator? 69.149.64.64 03:32, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because physik has not gone through the RfA process. --Iamunknown 03:36, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin 2

Come on, why can't Physik be an administrator? I'm sure that he could do the job as well as any of the others. Maybe he should wash Leebo's car or something. 69.152.115.249 15:20, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again, because physik has not gone through the RfA process. If you wish to nominate physik, ask him or her, then read Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship. --Iamunknown 16:23, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Music Videos

I have questions regarding two music videos done by innosense (band). One music video (for "Say No More") has existed, but unfortunately does not appear to be linked to anywhere online. (Maybe one site; but I'm not sure.) And there's also another video done by them (for "Wherever You Are") that is watchable on YouTube (not the best source) and unfortunately I can not find if this song was a single or what. I have my doubts I could include the second, but is it possible to include the Say No More video? Or would it be mostly original research on my part? -WarthogDemon 19:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adopt Me?

Leebo can you adopt me?--Physik 20:47, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

<Long Sigh>

Actually, yes the "Game-Screenshot" template is by definition a fair-use rationale. It explains why the image should be used, by providing three provisions (out of many more) that are almost always met, and justify the "fair-use" of an image. One may even conclude that this is why the rest of WP recognizes this fact by listing that template under the "Fair Use" heading over here.

You may also notice that, if you bothered to read the history of that image, some "well-intentioned" person decided that add that "please add a more detailed rationale" blurb of nonsense to the template, which in previous incarnations, did not have it. Perhaps that's why this image doesn't have one...and perhaps why your "project"'s goals are a bit...short-sighted?

Oh, and for the record, I accused you of not being able to read for content, not at all. It would just be plain old silly if I were writing to you to tell you that you couldn't read, right? Interesting, though, that your inability to discern that difference in my message is something of a confirmation of that. Sorry if you're offended, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong. IMO, WP:SPADE trumps WP:CIVIL 9/10. 24.128.63.214 20:36, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
