Retrieval of deleted page
I placed a db template on the article Hellfire Sermons and the creator (User:Andy Ford) would like me to put the page in his user space so he can improve it (see User talk:Andy Ford and User talk:JohnnyMrNinja#hellfire sermons). Of course, I can't do this, as I'm not a sysop. Would you mind? Thanks ~ JohnnyMrNinja 17:43, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks again! ~ JohnnyMrNinja 23:03, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
Hellfire Sermons
Thanks then Andrew - your advice is actually quite constructive - so it would appear that what is required is to plentifully reference the article. Thats OK, no problem, but I still worry that these 'deletionists' are actually harming Wikipedia - there is surely no harm in it containing too much obscure info. And just going around deleting articles is just not friendly, open or helpful - why not start by advising??? Regards Andy Ford 23:43, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
- Cheers Andrew, I have now found the User page.

Heart failure
I do not understand why you have repeatedly removed a piece of content from heart failure only because it was once referenced to a WebMD page. As you will have seen in the discussion on the ClinMed talk page, there is no need to remove the content (as per WP:ATT). I reverted you for good reason, and am somewhat annoyed that you could not follow this up with reasonable discussion instead. JFW | T@lk 00:36, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
DYK
Thanks for informing me about the inclusion to the DYK template. It's my first one, and it feels quite exciting. Again, thanks! Soulrefrain 23:42, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
DYK placement
I am confused on the placement of my DYK credit.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 17:14, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Help
Yeah, I need help with the image use policy. Also, that aerial image is mine. I took it on a flight from Houston to Dallas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by XxTrillvillexX9 (talk • contribs) 00:12, August 25, 2007 (UTC)
image
Hi Andrew - FWIW- I think your first instinct was right, about speedy delete of the Clinton nutcracker image. I was just looking for an admin to ask about how to get that started when I saw your edit. I think it is politically motivated vandalism, and I've removed it from 2 pages. It's also on the user page of the uploader, but I didn't know how to handle that - so I'll leave it in your hands. Tvoz |talk 02:36, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Categories again
Andrew, thanks for your detailed response to my request for help with categories. I feel badly, as I phrased my Q poorly, and you answered at great length about how to delete a category globally.
Alas, I had another issue in mind. At the end of articles I read, I sometimes see inappropriate categories. I don't want to delete them globally but just in that article. Yet, usually I don't find an editable category field at the end of an article. Is there a secret door to enter or spell to utter? Bellagio99 22:52, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your advice on my user page. When I encounter the problem again, I will provide a concrete example. Till then, WikiOn, dude! Bellagio99 23:08, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Transclusion
- Andrew, thanks also for a new word: "transclusion". At first, I thought it was related to "transubstantiation" or "transcendental," just by the sound of it and your User Page interests. Was I surprised? OTOH, having once written a paper, called "The Immanent Internet", I can see that one piece of prose (or image) "lives" within another. So there is a metaphysical connection!

Request for mediation
A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Jesus, and indicate whether you agree or disagree to mediation. If you are unfamiliar with mediation on Wikipedia, please refer to Wikipedia:Mediation. Please note there is a seven-day time limit on all parties responding to the request with their agreement or disagreement to mediation.
- For the Mediation Committee, Daniel 07:57, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- PS: I added your name to the party list because you contributed substantially to recent discussion on the date topics at Talk:Jesus. As I noted here, if I misjudged your involvement in this content dispute, please feel free to remove your name from the list. If you are involved substantially however do not wish to agree to mediation, feel free to follow the normal course of action and note your disagreement in the relevant section of Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Jesus. Cheers, Daniel 07:57, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Andrew as you are now aware of the mediation request, please remember to formally agree or disagree with it. John Smith's 16:06, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for cleaning up the DYK nom for Sitakunda. It also taught me a lot on writing for an encyclopedia. Cheers. Aditya(talk • contribs) 15:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Your note
Thanks for dropping me a note! I'm back in Florida now but I'll definitely stop back by FNB next time I'm in town. Hopefully see you then. Peace, delldot talk 23:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
Your proposed deletion was removed, so I took it to AfD. You're welcome to reiterate the point you made in the prod in the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Beast (state of being). Leebo T/C 13:38, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
NOR
Hi Andrew, There has been a big debate over this policy. I think you have valuable experience that makes you an important interlocutor on this matter. I suggest you forst go here for a very concise account, and then depending on how much time you have read over the WP:NOR policy and the edit conflicts that led to its being protected, or the last talk to be archived ... or just go straight to the talk page. Slrubenstein | Talk 16:06, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Lise Simms and the others
I wondered about protecting them before but thought it best not to. My feeling is that it's better to keep blocking the changing IPs than have them move onto some other articles and their vandalism get missed. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 17:20, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Jinfengopteryx wiki.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Jinfengopteryx wiki.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:09, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

I've responded to your comments, please list out what edits you found objectionable and we can go from there. Thanks for your consideration. Benkenobi18 21:39, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Sidewalk counseling
Andrew, thank you for the edit to the List of counseling topics. You have alerted me to the possibility there are other very different uses of counseling than in the list. Are you aware of any others apart from legal and disciplinary (council) uses?--Ziji (talk email) 23:35, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'm afraid not. I glanced through the list and it seems alright, thought I think the spiritual types of counseling could have either a separate section, or different article altogether. Does Life coaching belong on the list? -Andrew c [talk] 00:11, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
- The whole coaching mentoring genre ought to be included and I will do so. There are fascinating boundary issues between psychotherapy, counselling, coaching and mentoring, which are blurring applications within each field. I started the list as a beginning to create some differentiation of the fields, so thank you for remininding me to capture those blurred areas.--Ziji

The AfD for 1 Corinthians 14 has closed with a consensus to merge. Please feel free to do so at this time. Best, Mackensen (talk) 16:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I agree in principle. I would not have done so had I not been motivated by concerns in the spirit of BLP, as stated in my edit summary. -- Y not? 16:44, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Andrew c. I noticed that you think "Navou ... obviously had protected the wrong version." I would very much appreciate if you would share that opinion at the Fred Thompson discussion page. Thanks.Ferrylodge 03:04, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
cat redirects
Thanks for the advice on my talk page. Perhaps you might consider mentioning the link you provided to me on the page Wikipedia:Redirect? Banno 05:11, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much for clearing up the mess on the Dan Patrick page. I appreciate your help! Snowfire51 17:07, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Photos not loading
I see that you were involved in recent discussion at the pregnancy article. Something strange seems to be happening at that article. Almost all of the images are not loading, at least on my computer screen. Do you find the same thing?Ferrylodge 17:23, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info.Ferrylodge 17:52, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I used the purge technique, and it worked for the images at the pregnancy article. (Sometimes I wish that I could also purge some other users.)Ferrylodge 18:27, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
Conflcit of Interest
Andrew, your advice to Christopher russo, to discuss his contributions to the Crisis Pregnancy Center article on its Talk page, is good. However, you should not have blocked him, because you are an active editor of the article, so you have a conflict of interest in the matter.
I realize that the block has expired. But, in the future, please refrain from exercising Administrative oversight in matters in which you have an interest. NCdave 15:12, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
