interview request
Hello, My name is Natalia Olaru and I am a final year master student in the Corporate Communication programme at the Aarhus School of Business in Denmark. I am currently working on my final paper on the topic of the motivation of users to create content on collaborative media websites, the focus being Wikipedia. As a sample I chose the English and Danish portals. I would like to invite you for an online interview on the topic of what motivates you, as a user, to participate in editing and creating articles for this platform. Your real identity, and wikipedia account will be kept confidential through the paper. I plan on doing the actual interviews in the period between 6st and the 15th of May via Skype, MSN, Google Talk or Yahoo Messenger. I am, however, open to other channels of communication too. Please let me know if you would like to participate in this interview and the preferred channel. Thank you, Natalia Olaru Email: <redacted> --MulgaEscu (talk) 12:44, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Erie Anime Experience
I want to know why you deleted erie anime experience page, if you don't allow anime convention pages then delete them all not just the ones you dislike. Now I know why the trade school I went to said not to trust anything on this site. You say to keep it neutral, the page was wrote with facts, that can be found on the EAE site as well as animecons.com and many more. I should tell everyone that Wiki is to bias and only allows content that the Admins want/like and heck with everyone else. (Kenshinkyo (talk) 14:04, 7 May 2011 (UTC)).
- To be accurate, I didn't delete the page - I proposed it for deletion as I did not see the notability of this convention, or the coverage at independent sources which meet Wikipedia's reliability criteria.
- After I proposed its deletion, there were 7 days for discussion. During that discussion, the consensus was that this particular convention does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria and so should be deleted. This was not a discussion amongst admins - I'd have to check, but I don't think any admins took part in the discussion, and my nomination of the article was not as an admin but as an editor.
- Of course, it is possible that myself and the others who thought the article should be deleted made s mistake - could you please explain under which criteria of our notability criteria the convention falls, and some significant coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject? Once you have shown that this convention meets the criteria for inclusion (whether others should have articles or not has no influence on whether this one does) then we can look into this further, perhaps even recreating the article with suitable references. I look forward to hearing from you. Regards, -- PhantomSteve.alt/talk\[alternative account of Phantomsteve] 23:07, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
I did make a section that included news reports from out side sources And Erie Times that someone mention IS NOT part of our convention is the local news paper for the area. But all was deleted. could be I am just mad at the fact I have fought for a long time to make the convention happen we are now in the 4th event for it, and some still think it is a joke and most haven't even given it a chance.(Kenshinkyo (talk) 00:25, 8 May 2011 (UTC)).
- You make it sound as if you wanted the article to either publicise the convention or to 'legitimise' it - neither of which are the purpose of Wikipedia! Again, if you could detail which of the notability criteria the convention meets, we can move on from there. Regards, -- PhantomSteve.alt/talk\[alternative account of Phantomsteve] 02:54, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
I'll give you a much of links tomorrow, to see if you can help. But we at EAE try to run a truly family event with something for all ages and we focus a lot on History and how it links cultures together. (Kenshinkyo (talk) 03:18, 8 May 2011 (UTC)).
- All of that is fine and well, but it still does not establish notability. StrikerforceTalk Review me! 03:19, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
I don't get what you mean I guess. It was wrote as a Bio of sorts listing what takes place at it, And not that much different then Tekkoshocon's page on here, yet theirs is allowed and EAE's gets removed. I have read the "guidlines" and now more lost then before. Should I have said EAE is ran by 30 volunteers who 1.3 to 1.5 are farmers and the rest are from ether the low or mid. working class and that they work their butts off to run a convention on a low almost non-exciting budget; due to the avg. income of the staff is $24,000 a year, and yet the work EAE for no pay just because they love the fandom and their community and want to see something grow there.
