Reseda Regent Robotics

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Reseda Regent Robotics, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

RRR & Robodox

Just a few comments about these articles...

First, the articles shouldn't be written in the first person. If you look at the article for Cory Doctorow, you'll see that when he edited the article he didn't use "I" or "my". The articles for the teams shouldn't use "we" or "our" unless you're directly quoting someone from the team or whatever.

Second, you mention on the talk page for RRR that you'll "wipe the slate clean" next year. If you look at pages for other teams of other sorts, they don't have their pages blanked every year. The articles are expanded upon with rankings, statistics, history, etc.

Third, and most importantly, I'm still not sure that the teams are notable enough for inclusion here. They would certainly fit in well on the pages for their respective schools. For instance, I don't remember ever seeing a page for a high school baseball or football team. High school teams just generally aren't notable enough. They may be written about in local newspapers but that's it. And local things like that are just generally not kept here. I wouldn't be surprised if someone came along and nominated them for deletion. Dismas|(talk) 08:04, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed RfA

Hi Czarbender. I'm coming to you with a bit of unasked for advice. I see that you're looking at going for the admin buttons. Can I be honest - with under 150 edits the community is unlikely in the extreme to grant you the tools. Can I suggest you continue the excellent work you have done in the past month, use the edit summary more, and think about applying in the future? You're more than welcome to go with the RFA, but I would prefer to spare you unnecessary pain as the oppose votes come in - and trust me each one feels painful when you are commited to this project and know that you are here for worthy reasons! If you want to chat, my talk page is always open! Very Best. Pedro |  Chat  08:06, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Very best wishes. I've have already added my moral support to your RFA. Pedro |  Chat  08:16, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Of course. I'm allways ready to help other users if I can. Pedro |  Chat  08:26, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I closed the RfA as the oppose votes were starting to sound a bit nasty, which I didn't feel was deserved, and it was clear that with under 150 contributions, the result would have been the same anyway. You clearly have the right idea and the right attitude, and if you try again in a few months when the community has gotten a better idea of your editing behaviour - in order to promote, they need to know what to expect, which is fair enough. I'd say keep at it, look for any areas in your field of interest which need improving (especially stubs), and try some of the suggestions which were recommended in your RfA to get a feel for some of the things admins need to know. Good luck for your next attempt. Orderinchaos 15:43, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry that this happened, but it was to be expected. As above, if I can help in anyway please feel free to ask at my user page. Very Best. Pedro |  Chat  15:47, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am also sorry it happened. Get more edits, come back soon, and try again. Not everone gets the mop on there first try! Politics rule 17:35, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I thank my supporters, and now I'm going to take this criticism, and use it to improve myself, then try again. Sad to say I have a bigger problem on my hands. Last night at 2am, I made an article, this morning it was gone. I'm still waiting to find out why, but anyway, thats another topic all together. I'll just try to gain more edits, then try again. C. Pineda 19:00, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What was the article called? I can have a look for it if you wish. Orderinchaos 08:43, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Smash Bros. Dojo

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Smash Bros. Dojo, by Zetawoof (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Smash Bros. Dojo is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Smash Bros. Dojo, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 10:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted Article

Hiya. Perhaps you could re-create the article in a sandbox from your user page and let me know when it's done. I'd be happy to review it for you. Please make sure you've reviewed the policies on notability and verifiability first, as this could help against it being deleted again. If you do it in your user space first the it won't be quickly deleted. Pedro |  Chat  08:35, 2 August 2007 (UTC) Here's a sandbox:[reply]

Page protection request

I moved your request for page protection out of the condom article and onto the WP:RPP page so admins will be able to see and review the request. Just as a reminder, If you request protection in the future, remember to edit the "requests for protection" page and not the article. LyrlTalk C 22:08, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Paper Mario characters

I did give a reason on the nomination page linked from the AFD message, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paper Mario characters. Please read WP:AFD and WP:DP. — Malcolm (talk) 15:53, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where in WP:AFD#How to list pages for deletion does it say that? — Malcolm (talk) 20:07, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum: Might you be confusing AFD with proposed deletion? — Malcolm (talk) 20:11, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use disputed for Image:Shadowpeach.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Shadowpeach.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:22, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Protegee

I need a protegee who can help me spread my ideals while I'm relaxing from Wikipedia. I want to try and reduce my time here because I think I may be going mentally insane because of it. So I need someone, a student if you will, who can fix my things and fix things I would normally fix and or discuss about in talk pages while I'm limiting my exposure to Wikipedia. If you're interested, please apply at the following page. C. Pineda (クリス) 00:41, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ah, yes im on it. C. Pineda (クリス) 00:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Erm, add a "might" before mistake...didn't mean people actually do. — Malcolm (talk) 00:49, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Paper Mario

You do not own the article (see WP:OWN). There is no obligation to notify anyone at all, though it helps sometimes. Now, if you want to bring it back, discuss on the redirect target (Talk:Paper Mario (series)). TTN 11:46, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're acting as if there is some sort of obligation that you must agree before the article is redirected. That is implying that you have some sort of stake in the article. As I said, it can help, but there is no obligation to contact you. Again, if you want to bring it back, discuss on that page. TTN 13:25, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As I said, it can help to contact people, but there is no obligation at all to do anything. Just because you missed out does not mean that we need to go back to the way it was. You can now discuss on the series article if you would like to bring it back. TTN 00:20, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Paper Mario Character

The page of List of Paper Mario series characters has been merged into the Paper Mario (series) article. I say your previous protest and disagreement to the articles being merged, which I too have commented about. However, at this point, I can not continue to make continue edits to prevent, essentially the deletion of the character list without additional support. Support can be provide by reverting the character list page back to its original form and/or seeking admistrators to protect the page until furth discussion can be closed. 66.109.248.114 18:19, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of Paper Mario series characters Fix Up

Hey. We have one week to fix up List of Paper Mario series characters. During this week, TTN and the other opponents agree not to revert, delete, or otherwise do anything to the article. We just need to do a little re-formating, add a few sources, and change some things around. If we do that, then the page will stay - otherwise it will somehow be merged into other articles. Since the article is locked, I created a mirror of the page that we can edit. It can be found at User:Zomic13/sandbox/List_of_Paper_Mario_series_characters. Having this mirror page also allows us to both work on the page while the page is locked, as well as experiment without having to worry about things getting reverted. - Zomic13 02:21, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:The Gman Spotted.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Kanye West article, the "off the record" comment by Obama

You feel that it is best that it not be in quotation marks, because it makes it seem as if he intended for it to be heard? I would not state that is necessarily the case when most people read that part. I was the one who put it in quotation marks in all the articles I either added or tweaked that information to (which is only three, by the way)...because it actually was not an "off the record" comment (considering that the reporter was taping Obama). Flyer22 (talk) 13:31, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The thing is, even though the reporter was taping Obama, Obama didn't himself meant for it to be released, so for Obama it was supposed to be off the record. If you feel the reporter's intent outweighs Obama's, since he was the one taping it, then the quotations can stay, I was simply looking at it through Obama's point of view. C. Pineda (クリス) (talk) 18:51, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
