Talk:Dodgeball revert

Hi,

if you look at the "discussion" that was removed, it's all childish vandalism or pointless personal commentary. There's no harm in removing this from talk pages, as that's not their purpose. Chris Cunningham (talk) 12:52, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

removing refs

Hi, I see you've been removing refs. I'm sorry you don't think they are reliable enough, but it would have been better for you to contact me first before just jumping in. Maybe you were being bold. Re - clag, it is a common term, used in many magazines. Would a magazine reference be better? Mjroots (talk) 14:39, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

A reference to a professionally published magazine would be excellent. I apologise if you feel i have been too hasty in my actions, but the links provided werent really satisfactory as per WP:REFB, and I did give reasoning for the deletion. I think that deletion of the links and asking for new references is better than deleting the articles in question. Deckchair (talk) 14:44, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

List of UK Railfan Jargon

I noted your removal of "BRUTE" as being an acronym. I have no problem with that ... but have you ensured that you have added it to the "List of Railway Acronyms" article? If not, then please can I ask that you reconsider your decision as it will mean a loss of information to the encyclopedia. Olana North (talk) 09:39, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

List of U.S. railfan jargon

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of U.S. railfan jargon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Bolly Nickers (talk) 17:41, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

List of disaster films

Please stop removing films from List of disaster films until after you have completely read the talk page. The films are listed in each disaster which are depicted within the film. All films which have a disaster in them belong on the list, no matter how minor. That is the purpose of the list.

London

Hi. Fair call on this. I just saw the addition of Oasis and thought, hang on, they're from Manchester, without thinking about the other artists listed. I think that section could do with referencing though, to explain the links to London each of the artists have. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:30, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Sutton Grammar School for Boys

Why did you undo all of the edits on this page? As a student at the school I can promise you that all of the edits were legit and correct.

-Um9zcw

Ah, these would be the edits I removed which included such gems as "chav hunting", "beastiality" & a past headmaster by the name of "J A Cocksuck". What on earth could cause me to remove such facts? Deckchair (talk) 13:00, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

J A Cocksuck was one of the greatest headmasters the school has ever had. It is highly disrespectful to remove his name from the school because of your childish mind. 18:52, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Dear Sir,

  In your comment on my talk page, I would like to inform you of the grammatical mistakes you made. You did not capitalise an "I" and you incorrectly spelt "request" (rquest)

Yours Sincerely,

Deckchair,

As one of the builders of the weather station, I find it hard to determine why this has been removed so many times. The station is now a permanent feature of the school, and many months went into its design and construction. As such, credit is due to the team when people see the link on Wikipedia.

The reference is as reliable as one could be, being owned by the people who built and maintain the station.

I look forward to hearing back from you with a genuine, certifiable reason as to why the names and references have been removed, and not simply "non-notable students and an unreliable source.

Thank you.

I will reply here as you did not sign your comments thus not allowing me to reply on your talk page. Firstly The builders of the weather station, however fine it may be, are simply not notable for inclusion in an article on Sutton Grammar School. If an article for the weather station itself were to be created then such information would indeed be justified. Secondly, with reference to the cited website, this is not an independent or notable source, therefore it is not suitable. Thanks Deckchair (talk) 13:46, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Hérita Ilunga

Hi, could you please provide a reference that states Hérita Ilunga has signed a permanent contract at West Ham United? Cheers, Mattythewhite (talk) 13:08, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your swift reply. It certainly looks like he has signed permanently. It's strange though that West Ham never published an individual article on the subject, or how it hasn't been picked up by the BBC. But that definitely looks alright to me. Cheers, Mattythewhite (talk) 13:25, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Savage

I don't want to get into an edit war... I just feel this should be mentioned. What are your views?Jandrews23jandrews23 (talk) 22:15, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Savio

Hi, note your citation needed added against Savio's fee on the West Ham United F.C. page. Pretty sure there never was a fee quoted by the club for Savio and, as we know, those by the press can be unreliable. As I understand it the fee is 'up to' £9m depending on many things (goals scored etc) but the club have never broken this down. Nearest to an accurate fee with a reliable reference might be to use a 'believed to be' figure?--Egghead06 (talk) 11:55, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Making Colliers Wood Happy

Please can you explain why you think Making Colliers Wood Happy is not "notable"? You removed it soon after I originally put it on the page, and when I put it back later, with references to local press articles to show its significance, you removed it again, still saying it was a "social/glee club" and not "notable". It is a community-building exercise which has been recognised by an award and grants, and if one of the local estate agents thinks it is a sufficient attraction to the area to merit putting its newsletter up in the window, then how can you say it is not "notable" in a suburb only otherwise "notable" for containing the ugliest building in London?

What do I have to do to stop you removing it?
