2010_Copiap%C3%B3_mining_accident

You seem to be following that article. Could you follow up on the BBC retraction of "metallic gel" since you apparently saw the original reference? http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:2010_Copiap%C3%B3_mining_accident#metallic_gel? 173.73.192.6 (talk) 04:25, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Commented at the article - it wasn't a BBC retraction, more them developing the article and dropping minor info, but it has been sourced elsewhere now.Bigger digger (talk) 15:10, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bodo Sperling

Hi Bigger digger, I saw you tried to improve Bodo Sperling. I posted some message on the discussion page there. When I tried the link, "what links there" I saw, that Bodo Sperling is mentioned in many articles containig "Objectivism", digital art and so on. I think, there is going on a lot of self promotion, we had the same problem in German WP and the netherland WP w:nl:Bodo Sperling deleted the article because auf that reason. Could you please watch this a little? Regards --Robertsan1 (talk) 05:53, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Robertsan, yes, I'll try to keep an eye on the article, it doesn't seem to me like he has much notability but if some other sources appear then maybe there is hope for him! Bigger digger (talk) 15:11, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

HI Bigger digger. I did some edits today removing some namedropping in lists for notable artists in Virtual art, New media art and Conceptual art, also List of video artists, because these articles are for notable artists who participated in a biennial or documenta. I am sure that there will come up a fresh user or an IP trying to revert them. I agree with all your statements but I will be quiet there, not dropping oil in the fire. If I can help you with any translation let me know. Regards --Robertsan1 (talk) 18:30, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chile mining accident

Hi, I see you tried to create previously consensus to keep the article on one place, and you opted to keep it at [{2010 Copiapó mining accident]] (the most accurate title). I invite you to take part of the latter discussion on the matter, located here. Thanks, and have a nice day. Diego Grez (talk) 01:14, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Diego, I was away from wp whilst the conversation opened and closed, but I have made a comment anyway. Bigger digger (talk) 15:31, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting Édmée Schneerson

As reviewing administrator, I thought the nature of the AfD discussion had so far degenerated that, invoking IAR, I thought it advisable to close, blank, and relist at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Édmée Schneerson (2nd nomination). I'm sorry that you'll have to give the argument over again, but see my note at the AfD 2. DGG ( talk ) 05:41, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks DGG, I enjoyed the drama, so felt compelled to !vote, it's a shame the drama has led to more work for everyone! Bigger digger (talk) 18:23, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/UPS_Airlines_Flight_6

Hi! I posted a response at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/UPS_Airlines_Flight_6 - Also I found two Wall Street Journal articles that show significant coverage WhisperToMe (talk) 03:14, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I'm a little new to this (long time user, only been trying to edit for a couple of weeks) so thanks for the message on Milo Yiannopoulos. Can be difficult to figure out if you're really being neutral. Soupy sautoy (talk) 18:41, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, if you read WP:AGF I'm sure it says something about assuming the best in writing, because it's always hard to gauge tone. Editors can get quite upset when articles they like are up for deletion, which I think is probably the case here. Bigger digger (talk) 20:49, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
