can you give me any tips?

i understand and respect the fact that you are trying to keep to the Wikipedia articles clean. If it wasn't for people like you, Wikipedia wouldn't be what it is today. I worked really hard gathering all the info to make the article regarding Matthew Edward Hall and would hate to see all the time and effort go down the drain.

but if there is anyway you can give me some tips to keep it live, or give me tips on how to improve it so if it is deleted, i can try to redo it the right way.


Hi Tony. I've changed your CSD A7 to G10 (attack). If you read on you will see that it contains some perverse insults. Cheers, --Kudpung (talk) 11:40, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I had intended to remove the line, but got distracted. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 11:41, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mannchalay

Just need clarification on Mannchalay.Plot of TV Drama Serial was deleted by you and you said " You may use external websites or publications as a source of information" So I added a reference to a website from where that plot was taken. Hoever again it has been deleted. Dont understand, what am I doing wrong??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mshakeelbhatti (talkcontribs) 11:50, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Adding a reference to the original work does not remove the copyright issue. It is still copied from the original text. You can either request permission to use the text - see the message in your talk page for help with that - or you can rewrite the text for use in the article. ttonyb (talk) 11:54, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kharne Question

Hello sir,
The word kharne was not "just made up one day", it has been and is used by 100,000's of gamers every day. I have seen terms such as "newb" and "pwned" also written about on wikipedia, which is of the same as kharne. A slang term. I urge you to reconsider your deletion of the topic. I rewrote the topic of Kharne much more thoroughly, if you could possibly read the last revision before deletion by another user it would be appreciated. I intend to find sources however I do not know if logs of conversations would be sufficient, however that non the less undermines the validity of the term.
Sincerly,

hollywood hip attire

hi ttonyb1,

I saw a message regarding the post for Hollywood Hip attire. Is there something that I need to change? Thanks for your help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashhtrey (talkcontribs) 04:32, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Probably the best thing to do is remove the reference to someone's wife and provide reliable sources to support the article. ttonyb (talk) 04:35, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On the articles.

The articles are already cited. See the link (http://www.telegraphindia.com/1071018/asp/careergraph/story_8445256.asp). Sidhu Jyatha (talk) 05:06, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Funny enough. It was there just a few minutes ago. Wonder what happened? Sidhu Jyatha (talk) 05:11, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The link is available again. So please fee free to check the citation facts and remove the deletion tags. Sidhu Jyatha (talk) 06:58, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Johnson (Ohio politician)

I think by now it's obvious this is the first article I've tried to post on Wikipedia. I've only tried to do this because I couldn't find any article for Bill Johnson (Ohio politician)

I understand the copyright issues, but I have a question for you...

Since Bill Johnson does not have an article and his predecessor "Charlie Wilson (Ohio politician)" does what would the best course of action?

1) Wait until the U.S. Government posts an official picture and biography and link/cite information from that?

2) Cite his election page for now?

3) Let someone better at using Wikipedia handle it?

Thanks! Thwiang (talk) 15:02, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia! Please do not become frustrated. If I were you I would recreate the article citing the win and any info such as party, percent of vote, etc. I would also add any bio you have, but instead of copying the text you need to rewrite it in your own words. You also need to cite the text added using the Wikipedia reference format. If you have any questions, please let me know on my talk page. ttonyb (talk) 15:15, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chi-Ming Chow

Hi Tony, Could you please help me out so that I can understand the criteria in WP:BIO using reliable sources that you are citing? Do you have an email address I could use to correspond with you? Thanks, Ebrawer (talk) 22:55, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to leave your questions here. Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 01:09, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks. I guess I'm trying to understand why you are dismissive of the media articles that quote him as an authority regarding cardiovascular health issues as irrelevant, given that he is a cardiologist. As a spokesperson for Heart & Stroke, he is considered the go-to person in the Canadian media for all cardiovascular health issues amongst immigrant groups and the general public. So for example taking this article: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2010/04/19/heart-disease-ethnicity.html, we are talking about the risk of heart attacks amongst different ethnic groups. Heart attacks are most certainly a matter pertaining to cardiology. I hope this can help clear up any misunderstanding about the importance of his being quoted in these sorts of articles and it's pertinence to cardiology. I know that Wikipedia is a collaborative effort and so I hope I can learn to be a better part of the community going forward as I am new to this. I would like to build up the cardiology aspect of Wiki, and hopefully include more prominent individuals in the cardiology field. Even if we unfortunately end up disagreeing I would like to better understand your point of view. Ebrawer (talk) 04:13, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Quick off the mark

Can you please review where I'm up to with this article and confirm whether you think the speedy tags you've added really need be there ? I accept that it could do with more Categories-Sticks66 00:11, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please advise me of your specific notability concern regarding this guy ?-Sticks66 04:14, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There are a couple of issues, the article is about an individual; however, the majority of the references support the business. I don't see how the article meets the requirements of WP:BIO using reliable sources. ttonyb (talk) 04:26, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The 1st criteria for Notability of a Creative Professional is "person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors". The accolades section cites two Hall of Fame admissions and a 3rd acknowledgment from the Advertising Fedn of Aust. The quote in that cited article from Howcroft, then President of the AFA. says "Mo and Jo were the Lennon and McCartney of Australian advertising. For two decades they dominated advertising in a way we might never see again". The cited AWARD Hall of Fame article names the ten leading Australian advertising peers/successors who selected Johnston. I don't see how the subject fails to meet the widely-cited-by-peers criteria. -Sticks66 04:45, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am new to Wikipedia and I am trying to have this page for Rick Webb post cleanly without any warnings. I have sources and the article is neutral - I'm not sure what is wrong with it.

It is published by India's leading publisher and is available at all notable bookstores in India, namely Starmark/Crossword/Landmark and also online from www.flipkart.com and www.infibeam.com. ISBN: 9380349152 The page should not be deleted. Deep Kishore —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepkishorewiki (talkcontribs) 18:36, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please show how it meets the criteria in WP:NOTBOOK using reliable sources. ttonyb (talk) 18:40, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

-It is not a self-published book, but published by one of India's top publishers. -Check it out at India's largest online bookstore www.flipkart.com by typing Jab se in the SEARCH field. -It certainly meets the criteria in WP:NOTBOOK Regards, Deep Kishore —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepkishorewiki (talkcontribs) 07:10, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just saying it does not help one understand how it meets the criteria. Please be specific as to how it meets the criteria. ttonyb (talk) 07:19, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Ttonyb1. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Kinematic Self-Replicating Machines (book), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Page is now clearly not a test page (it has developed since you tagged it). I'm not sure it meets WP:Notability (books), but it's not speediable. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 18:54, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up. ttonyb (talk) 22:50, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion converted to PROD: Social Work and Spirituality

Hello Ttonyb1. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Social Work and Spirituality to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe WP:CSD#A1 applies to the page in question. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 20:12, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up. ttonyb (talk) 22:50, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

John Carlin -- co-founder Red Hot + Funny Garbage

Hey Ttonyb1 -- can you explain GHits and GNews? We're trying to update J Carlin's site to be more relevant -- we added more diverse references, etc -- our biggest problem is that (A) some of the references we have are old and (B) John tends to talk about his projects and not himself. But his work has appeared everywhere. Please advise! Thanks Lorraine —Preceding unsigned comment added by LorrSG (talkcontribs) 20:58, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

G = Google...Take a look at notability and reliable sources for help in establishing the article. The age of the sources are not an issue, but the sources have to support him, not the projects. If, after you read the articles, you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 22:48, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

See discussion site of Rachel Roxx or just google!

Hey, you are really fast, could you please search her to see the relevance and think 10 minutes about it! --Hixteilchen (talk) 23:10, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Does one really need 10 minutes to see the article fails to meet WP:BIO? ttonyb (talk) 23:15, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
She played for award-winning series (2 films), has millions of google hits, 6 interwikis, multible articles on AVN.com, speedy deletion would be a big fail.

Thank you for fixing the deletion tag on the above page, I now know how to do that myself! I knew it was posible! -- roleplayer 23:12, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please fix the page, don't delete it, I am inadequate at such things, so if you would please, it would be much appreciated. You can find information just by Googling his name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Blitz44 (talkcontribs) 04:12, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Rachel Roxx

Hello Roleplayer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Rachel Roxx, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I can't say this would survive AFD, but it does just sneak through A7. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Courcelles 10:17, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of material.

Hello Tony. I left you a message on the talk page here: Talk:Kinematic Self-Replicating Machines (book)# Removal of (published scientific journal) copyrighted material.. Just to consult you and see if there are any objections. Take care and Thanks a lot. Efiiamagus (talk) 20:25, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Anthro Corporation

Hello. I declined your speedy deletion tag of Anthro Corporation, and explained why on the Talk:Anthro Corporation page. I think the article and its sources prove at least some notability, at least enough to decline the speedy. That's not to say it would survive AfD, but I don't believe it's speedy-able. GorillaWarfare talk 02:04, 13 November 2010 (UTC) it would have been better to tell me how to fix it rather than delete it. Facebook and coutless other sites are listed. What do I need to do to make it comply?[reply]

deleting an article

I want to delete the article and start over but nothing will delete. I tried doing the {{db-g7}} at the top of the page and saving it but nothing changed. how can I delete the whole page???

Hi Tony. If you ever want to rename a page, you'll save yourself some work if you use the WP:MOVE feature. It will automatically leave a redirect. If you need any help, don't hesitate to let me know. Cheers, --Kudpung (talk) 06:09, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I did use the function; however, my fat fingers messed up that simple process. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 06:12, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
