Jobing.com Article

YOU SAID: It should be noted that there have been substantial (positive) edits to this article since I opened this AfD. - Rjd0060 23:51, 5 October 2007 (UTC) As the nom, I am surprised and impressed of the number of changes and references added to this article. I believe that it may be suitable to keep now. - Rjd0060 23:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

MY REPLY: Thank you for your patience and understanding as I enter the world of Wiki. What's the next step here? How do I get it off the "articles for deletion" list? Thank you again for your help and my apologies. --Phanavan 00:03, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image Question

YOU SAID:
Just so you know, I have removed 4 {{helpme}} templates that you added to image pages. Helpme templates are for use on user talk pages only. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them on my talk page. Thank you. - Rjd0060 16:28, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

MY REPLY: OK, thanks for removing them. And thanks for the notice. (Without it, I would have become even more frustrated, and perhaps even suspected vandalism. Sorry for my Newbie paranoia. I'm trying to make meaningful contributions, but it has become very discouraging!)

PROTOCOL?
I tried to leave a question on YOUR talk page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Rjd0060), but it said you would reply to messages on MY talk page.
Does this mean I should ask questions on my own talk page? (Or is it OK to ask here, on your page; if so, do I then look on mine for replies?)

QUESTION:
I still don't understand what is the proper way to put appropriate images, logos, and photos into Wiki articles when I have the owner's permission. When I attempt to do so, they get removed, regardless of what info I provide. Please advise.

Thanks, in advance, Tripodics 17:42, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:FYI

Thanks, but I'm not an admin. ;) -- Gravitan^{(Talk | Contribs)} 23:37, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see. I'm assuming that page had something to do with me then? -- Gravitan^{(Talk | Contribs)} 23:55, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, well thanks very much. I hope this ends soon, 'cause I'm tired of having to deal with him... -- Gravitan^{(Talk | Contribs)} —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 11:57, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry!

Whoops, sorry, made a mistake reverting. Thanks for catching me bud. Failure.exe 02:15, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ronald A. Carson

Hello: I saw that you had a hand in deleting Ronald A. Carson. I was hoping that you could assist me with re-creating the page so that it will remain permanent. Ronald A. Carson is a very noteworthy political operative and wonderkid. The articles that were cited on the page from the aurora advocate were written solely about him and his accomplishments. He is a role model to hundreds of thousands of african-american youth throughout the world. These youths looked to his page as a beacon of hope that they too might one day become as succesful as him. He has been commended by president's, acotrs and athletes alike for his rapid ascension into fame and stardom. I would greatly appreciate your assistance with allowing for his page to stand. Thanks Alinob77 16:50, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again for getting back to me. Your advice is appreciated. I have been able to contact the editor of The Aurora Advocate and have retrieved a couple of newspaper articles featuring Carson. I have also been informed that they are in the process of putting these articles online, which would give them a url that can be used on a Ronald A. Carson page. Once that is done, this would satisfy the third party source that is lacking. Also, Carson has been the point person/strategist in cities across the country for President Clinton, Vice-President Gore, Senators Lieberman, Edwards, Kerry and now Clinton. He is a political strategist in the mold of a James Carville, or a Paul Begala. This is what makes him notable, becasue he is so young, a wonderkid if you will. Also, it should not go without notice that he is African-American and let's be frank, this is an accomplishment that not many African-American's can boast of. This is why this "story needs to be told" it serves as inspiration for the throngs of African-Ameican youth who feel that if Carson can do these things, why not them. So, I will find the url's to the sources and then I hope that, after this, you will assist me in making Ronald A. Carson a permanent page on wikipedia--thanks again.

RJD0060/Improbcat: The two of you are out of line and your motives are again called into question, please revert to my above post about respect and integrity, of which, not one of you is exhibiting at this current time. "COI is a indication for scrutiny and editing, not rejection. The tone of the current article is unfortunate, but that can be changed. I'm prepared to remove some of the fluff."

Busted! Congrats! How does it feel to now have zero credibility? Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Alinob77

Sock report

Looks good to me. But again, I've never started a report before, but have commented on some. <shrug>. Again, it looks good to me. You done good, IMO. :) Jeeny 00:02, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I did look. But, just a skim through, so what I did see looks to be as you've reported it. Jeeny 00:20, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry.

Sorry about the late response. It was obvious that those accounts were Alinbob's sockpuppets, and they were blocked by another admin (whose name escapes me at the moment). I then blocked Alinbob himself for two weeks for sockpuppetry. There wasn't any confirmation as you say, but the probability of those accounts being different people is zero. · AndonicO ^Talk 13:14, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. · AndonicO ^Talk 14:44, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem on the comment deletion, what you posted essentially duplicated what I had up. She's got some bizarre obsession with this article. Improbcat 18:48, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

TELL GRAVITAN TO STOP POSTING THE SOCKPUPPET THING ON ME IAM ONLY ALLOWING REAL ADMINS TO DO IT CUZ ITS ANNOYING AND ANOTHER ADMIN SAID THAT HE IS NOT AN ADMIN--Umm killer 20:17, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the quote "you are and uneducated buffon" was allowed by the game masters at $BlizzardEntertainment$ 's world of warcraft when somone said it to me even though they have an extremely strict verbal thing. It is not a personal attack it is simply an opinion maby jet lover is a genius but she/he has never responded to my evidence and repeated again answer back about my wargames plzz Cheers!--Umm killer 20:23, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review Carson

Thanks for your reply. Do you know if the previous article resurrections were all Undeletes or article recreations or combination thereof? I have a real problem how pointless exercises like this waste so much time better spent elsewhere in the project. Do you know if the article was SALTed this time? It's warranted in this case. It's a shame at one level, since Carson's notability might conceivably be adequately documented some way in the future. But this long running history of heavy-handed chicanery with the article means any such future claims of its notability deserve to be viewed very skeptically. Professor marginalia 21:15, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for posting the SALT inquiry. Fingers crossed this will stop the sideshow.Professor marginalia 21:56, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job!Professor marginalia 21:58, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully salting it will stop it, but I'm doubtful. The reason for the whole deletion review fiasco was that the article had been salted, and she couldn't just recreate it. Improbcat 14:21, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Baakari wilder

I disagree with the db-bio tag because starring on Broadway does seem to be a notability, but it is a copyvio. Corvus cornix 23:30, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He has an entry at ibdb - http://ibdb.com/person.asp?id=75347 Corvus cornix 23:34, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I completely understand. If it hadn't been a copvio, I would have taken the db-bio tag off and rewritten the article myself, but it's best to get it deleted and start with a clean slate. Corvus cornix 23:38, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

MY REPLY: I have used published media stories, in addition to company information provided by thier company website, to write what I feel is an objective article- including one front-page story from the New York Times; Rather than simply deleting this article, can you make suggestions as to how it should be changed?
