Unblocked
I've unblocked you, per our conversations by email. Make sure you don't let anybody else use your account in future. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:53, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- I will most definitely refrain from letting any other person use my account. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 12:33, April 7, 2011 (UTC) 12:33, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- Welcome back, let's hope that doesn't happen again, eh ;) Did you still want to be on the RFA task force? WormTT · (talk) 12:59, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- Lord knows I dont want that to happen again. Yes I still want to be on the task force. RfA system still needs a lot of reform. Cheers. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 13:04, April 7, 2011 (UTC) 13:04, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- Good-o. You've got a bit of reading to do... but I've restored your name. WormTT · (talk) 13:07, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

- Welcome back to the Task Force. Don't stress out too much, it's only human to make the odd stupid mistake from time to time. Take good care of yourself :o) Pesky (talk) 11:32, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
lack of experience
I don't know if you were seriously trying to fulfill the candidate's request or doing it for a laugh (it certainly gave me one). However, 'strong oppose per lack of experience' in what's otherwise a pile-on over incivility-- well done. Swarm X 16:30, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
picture
A picture of Walcott is a great idea. But then there is the copyright issue. Gogue2 (talk) 21:14, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Seriouser
Hello — I'm just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Seriouser, a page you tagged, because of the following concern: It's not patent nonsense. It may be a hoax, but the intended meaning is clear. Let me know if you have any questions. Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 22:03, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- I have requested speedy deletion under the blatant hoax criteria. I guess I need a little tidying up in the CSD department. Still a little lost from my recent block. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 22:07, April 7, 2011 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it. Gfoley4 invoked the (controversial) IAR speedy deletion criteria; I'm not sure why, since it qualified under G3. Also, don't stress out over having been blocked — it's happened to some of our best users (even Jimbo!) Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 05:11, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Badminton at the 2011 Pan American Games – Mixed doubles
Hello SunCountryGuy01. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Badminton at the 2011 Pan American Games – Mixed doubles, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. Thank you. Salvio Let's talk about it! 22:29, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- I have taken a look at your nominations for speedy deletion and I have deleted something; however, I have left two. I don't think they should be deleted, but I'll let you receive a second opinion.
David Lee Smith is not an unequivocal copyvio of this, from what I can see.And Luna The Hedgehog cannot be speedied, in my opinion, because it's an article about a fictional character and does not fall within the purview of {{db-web}}, for me, at least, even though it is a bit of a borderline case... Salvio Let's talk about it! 22:35, 7 April 2011 (UTC)- Luna the hedgehog appears to be a character in a utterly non-notable youtube series of the same name [1]. I can't fault Suncountryguy for nominating it for speedy. Do you really intend to bring it to AFD? Yoenit (talk) 22:43, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- I understand it - that's why I did not decline the speedy -; in such a case, however, I believe a PROD would be best. That said, if another admin wants to delete the page per WP:IAR or as a definite WP:SNOW, I'll most definitely not object. Salvio Let's talk about it! 22:50, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- fair enough. Yoenit (talk) 22:53, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- And someone else did get to it in the end...

ACC
I just requested access to tools to become a member of the Wikipedia Account Creation Team. I would like to become a member of the ACC to help users have access to tools that user who are registered have access to. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 22:45, April 7, 2011 (UTC)
- I assume all the messages about "16 permissions in a month is too much" just went over your head? Ironholds (talk) 22:51, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Not done per Ironholds et al. delirious & lost ☯ ~hugs~ 02:20, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- I expected that. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 02:23, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
- Addendum : You already had a declined request to join ACC under your former user name from all of 3 weeks ago. Your creating a second account on the ACC tool with your application today (numbers 799 & now 805 too) would be sockpuppetry at ACC. It is also not in keeping with appealing declined applications and heeding any counsel given in the initial decline reason from Pmlineditor. Consider the advice in my declining your application redundant to being declined for multiple accounts at ACC. delirious & lost ☯ ~hugs~ 02:49, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- I expected that. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 02:23, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
- I thought we agreed the hat seeking was going to stop and you were going to make yourself useful in the mainpsace? If you keep this up, I will go to AN and get consensus to ban you from requesting any permissions, access or rights for a year. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:18, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Bored
I see you found something to do but here are a couple of ideas anyways:
- Wikify drive is happening right now
- Look up coordinates using this tool. I find it is rewarding to look up coordinates for places in my immediate vicinity. Category:Articles needing coordinates --Diannaa (Talk) 23:50, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Broken signatures
Your talk page posts are all signed as either of the following:
01:09, April 8, 2011 ([[Coordinated Universal Time|UTC]]) 01:09, April 8, 2011 ([[Coordinated Universal Time|UTC]]) 01:09, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
The correct format is:
01:09, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Please don't use non-standard date/time stamps in your signature. They are incompatible with the gadget that converts timestamps to local time and the presence of duplicate times is even more confusing. Thank you for your attention to this matter. —UncleDouggie (talk) 04:11, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks I have corrected this. Cheers. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 04:25, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
- It still doesn't work with my "local time" preference. Maybe remove the link to UTC? —GFOLEY FOUR— 04:32, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
About the red links in the "Giovanni Battista Rizza" entry
Hello SunCountryGuy01, I saw that you removed the red links about [[Integral representation]], [[Lucilla Bassotti]] and [[Rizza manifold]], so I wrote to ask you if mine practice of placing links to future projects (still not existing entries) is considered as a bad practice somewhere in Wikipedia: I did it so many other times. Ah, also I want to praise your new section button: it is very friendly and relaxing. :D Daniele.tampieri (talk) 14:53, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- It isn't an exact Wikipedia policy to not have red links on an article. Actually they are welcome and you are completely welcomed to place tham back. I just thought they were placed in the wrong spots. Firstly, no editor will create an article on Integral representation. It has already been created I am assured. Where I dont know. And I did my research on Lucilla Bassoti, she is not a notable subject for a Wikpedia article therefore making it difficult to make the article seem important and not worthy of AfD. And when I removed the [[Rizza manifold]] link I just was removing it because I thought it was an non-otable subject as well. I will reiterate, if you want to place them back it is completely within your rights to do so. Thanks and cheers. Jessy (talk) (contribs) • 16:41, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
