Talk page suggestion

Might I suggest that you just blank rather than delete archived sections of this page? That way diff links to it are not broken after a month. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 10:55, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your vandalism regarding my edits

How did you edit my Simpsons thing that fast? Holy crap. But heads up, you're going to get alot more tonight since it was mentioned on national television.

Please stop vandalizing my sourced edit to the Albert DeSalvo article. 88.112.239.245 (talk) 21:41, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop troubling Keilana. We don't appreciate this. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 05:12, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your reversion of Metal Gear Solid

Please respond to my talk page if that's fine. I noticed your recent revert of an IP's edit here. Yes, it is a very odd edit, and I absolutely support your revert. However, did you see what the IP put? "uh...wait...uhhh?" That's because somebody went and did a huge vandalism directly above the IP's edit. It would be helpful next time if you reverted both of them. I understand how it might have been difficult to see, but please do so if a similar problem arises elsewhere. Cheers! --haha169 (talk) 00:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! And despite the top of your talk page, you respond quite quickly! --haha169 (talk) 04:35, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nick Savoy page on my sandbox

You were generous enough to offer to restore the Nick Savoy page to my sandbox - for some reason, I can still only find the Love Systems one. If you have done it and I'm just dense (the likely situation) would you be able to let me know where it is? I'm really sorry to bother you. Camera123456 (talk) 07:24, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Moki

A tag has been placed on Moki requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jabencarsey (talk) 22:17, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just wanted to let you know I have unprotected the template involved in the above dispute per a request at WP:RFUP. Just thought you should know. « Gonzo fan2007 (talkcontribs) @ 16:42, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This could be an FA with a little work, why don't you go for it? Nice work there. RlevseTalk 22:19, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Rlevse. Just a bit more copyediting and we're at FAC (and then we just go along, I suppose...). I'll finish copyediting the "ancient devices" section this week; maybe we should aim for next Friday for FAC (27th)? · AndonicO Engage. 16:14, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably just those who worked on the article and Gary King (I've seen him reviewing articles at FAC a few times). Any more would be canvassing. ;) · AndonicO Engage. 18:42, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have resolved the vast majority of your concerns, some aspects are almost impossible to find any info on without going into original research. The article failed a while back, since when I spent ages scrambling what little pieces there were together. Anyway, I would be interested to know what you think of the article now. Regards. — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 00:00, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou, you did a great review, great advise. Yay, my first GA in what feels like ages. :-) — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 05:18, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DYK update

Thanks for helping out, but when I have the INUSE tag on the Next Update page, it means I haven't actually finished putting the next update together and I don't want it posted to the mainpage yet. Could you please take note of that next time? Thanks.

BTW, I'm not sure if you checked the image had been protected, but since I only just did so I suspect you may have inadvertently posted an unprotected image to the front page. That's also something worth bearing in mind next time. Cheers, Gatoclass (talk) 06:33, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem Keilana, and thanks once again for helping out :)
BTW, you don't actually need to protect an image you upload to the mainpage, but you do have to add an mprotected tag. If the image is from Commons, it's a bit more complicated, you have to download the commons image to your PC, reload it on en.wiki under the same name (leaving the .jpg bit out), and add a c-protected tag and copy the copyright protection tags from the commons page. It sounds complicated but it's pretty easy after you've done it once or twice. Don't worry about doing it this time, I already did it. Gatoclass (talk) 06:47, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome :) I think you'll find the instructions on loading images are on the T:DYK page itself. You'll see them at the top when you open the page to edit it. Regards, Gatoclass (talk) 06:53, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In addition, have you done the credits? --BorgQueen (talk) 06:38, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think you forgot to add {{dyktalk|22 June|2008}} to the articles' talk pages. --BorgQueen (talk) 07:05, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review for Cary_Herrman

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Cary_Herrman. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article, speedy-deleted it, or were otherwise interested in the article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. BHOrchid (talk) 23:28, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Keilana!!

Sorry to bug you while you are away and busy with "life"!!!

Very briefly, I'm working to fix a dispute that happened between an admin and the creator of an article. Apparently, the creator was blocked by the admin after the creator offended the admin, thus the creator, LDCortez, was unable to defend the article properly. I personally noticed the "war" going on between the two and felt the need to step in. I need your help to overturn the deletion, reinstate the article and to protect the page- please. As you were a part of this process, I feel you could potentially help.

THANK YOU!!

page protection on The King's School, Chester

Hi Keilana -

I'm contacting you since you are the protecting admin on the The King's School, Chester page. I've been doing some research on long-term page protection policy (in general, not about that page in particular) and noticed that page has been protected since April 5.

It looks like there's been little discussion there since late April so I wonder if maybe the protection is no longer needed and you might like to unprotect it.

I am not familiar with what led up to the protection, so if you'd rather keep it protected that's fine with me. I don't edit that page, so this is not a personal request, just something that came up related to the research I've been doing.

Thanks and have a good day... --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 03:07, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
