- To delete images from the Commons, you have to request that it be deleted. On Wikipedia, you place one of the tags from Wikipedia:Csd#Images_and_media on the image. Feel free to ask questions at WP:HD because I don't always have the answer :) Gary King (talk) 17:44, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Why did you post a deletion notice for this page on my talk page? I cannot think of a valid reason for deleting this page. RedWolf (talk) 23:44, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
Hey Ojay :)
I see you noticed my edit to Mary Whitehouse and it appears you have reverted it. May i ask why this is? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.145.193.117 (talk) 16:56, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
Rollback
I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. –Juliancolton | Talk 23:08, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
Question on recent revert
I just signed up for wikipedia because I felt that there was more to be said about the article relating to Pulsed Laser Deposition. For my first post, I'll admit, it was a bit bland and some of the information was scattered elsewhere in the article. Going forward, do you have any suggestions on how to make additions that won't get reverted by those who patrol wikipedia such as yourself? I don't want to get discouraged too early in this process. Thanks

Please be a little more careful ..
This edit [1] is not to your credit. Huggle and rollback are powerful tools, but they are not foolproof, and the onus is on you to ensure that the edits you make are correct. Philip Trueman (talk) 10:49, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
Your RfA
Hello, I am very sorry to tell you this but the chance of your RfA succeeding now is infinitesimal. I suggest withdrawing now and trying again after a few thousand edits which will show that you have enough experience. Sincerely, Triplestop x3 19:51, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

CNN Story
Maybe it's referring to Wikipedia:Flagged protection and patrolled revisions. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:05, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
- (pasted from helpdesk) Flagged revisions will be enabled on biographies. Basically what it means is that editors will have to "sight" (review) edits by anonymous and new editors in order to prevent (possible libellous) vandalism. As is typical with stories about Wikipedia, the mass media a) is having a field day and b) have little to no idea what they are talking about, leading to exaggeration, misleading claims, and outright lies. Oh well - just another day in WikiWorld. Don't worry too much about it. Xenon54 / talk / 23:06, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
- {from helpdesk) It was noted in this weeks Signpost Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-08-24/Technology report. Nanonic (talk) 23:32, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

on 1984
Yes, I have read 1984, it really messes with your brain when you read it, such as when Winston is being tortured. George Orwell used to be a socialist/communist, but after fighting in the spanish civil war,and seeing how perverted communism had become, he became highly anti-Stalinism, Stalinism I think was the most popular form of communism amongst politicians, but I think China and Vietnam are now more Leninist (incidently, China is probably the one country that fits the description of Oceana and the other super-powers the most (in my opinion)). His two main anti-Stalinist books where, Animal Farm, in which he explains in a fabel how the pricipals of a revolution get perverted to a point in which nothing has changed at all, and 1984, where he predicts what the world would be like if Stalinists took over.
There are some plot holes in 1984, such as the Ingsoc revolution occuring in 1960, so someone who fought in it could be 44 more or less, yet the book says all knowledge of the past has been eradicated by falsifying the records, yet this imaginary 40 year old could easily remember it. There are a number of possible ways around this, such as mass murder, hypnotism, "forced forgetting", but this isn't really explained. Another thing is the fact that people leave things behind, which are later found by acheologists or ameteurs. This is breifly looked at with the glass coral, but for the most part this two is unexplained.
You said that the different super-powers in Oceana are different forms of socialism, but they are effectively all Stalinists, who only go to war with one another to do the things you described.
Contrary to popular beleif, Stalin wasn't at all interested in war and expansion, he only invaded Finland and East Poland etc. to keep Hitler happy in a vein attempt to prevent war with Germany. His rule was in many respects more similar to the third age of death, with Nikolai Yezhov starting what has been called "the Meat Grinder" during the Great Purge, in which towns were given death quotas and his ministerial building was designed to be like an abatoir. Ultimately he got so powerful that Stalin became afraid of him and he was ultimately consumed by his own "Meat Grinder". It is even possible that Stalin himself was destroyed by the "Meat grinder" in order to prevent world war 3.
I feel sometimes that the Green party are essentially Marxists, and that more extreme groups like the Earth First society are essentially Stalinists (check out the green parties non-enviromental policies and they'll probably be highly Marxist)
You wanted to know what my opinions on oil are. Well, I don't really think about it often, but I think that I'll be more like George Bush. But needs must, I will be interested in investing in energy effecient cars (I myself am interested in building a completely flat car for long distance movements). I would also like to crack down on people (such as my mother) who seem to get into a car for extremely short distances(that can't be good in the long run).
Either way, I'm currently trying to move the article to a more appropriate site, such as Etherything2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Woodnot (talk • contribs) 16:05, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
