Request for unprotection

Hi Steel,

I had posted here earlier requesting the unprotection of the Humanitarian Coalition Wiki page. I noticed you deleted this post, but your comment was unclear. Sorry to bother, just curious. I would really like to see this page unprotected ASAP HCIntern —Preceding undated comment added 17:55, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you have some new and improved content which addresses the problems Syrthiss explained, then it would probably be best for you to paste it into the talk page where somebody who isn't associated with the Coalition can review it first. – Steel 18:28, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the Advice Steel, I will start by including content that should be in no way be contentious. Thanks again HCIntern 14:32, 17 October 2012 (EST)

Some content deleted

Hi I saw that you deleted some of my contributions to wikipedia and noted that as linkspam. See, I added the genuine references, you can see the links. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theonlyanil (talk • contribs) 15:06, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I noticed that basically all your contributions have involved adding links to widefide.com to any page you can find. When people do this it makes it look like they're more interested in getting visits to their website than actually improving Wikipedia. If you want to re-add the content, that's fine and there are probably hundreds of sources online available to use, but please don't keep fighting to include widefide.com links per the guidelines on external links and conflicts of interest. Thanks. – Steel 15:15, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

you deleted the page: Computer Engineering Technology. Assuming it had information on it you should have it restored.

hey steel,

i tried to create a new page for Computer Engineering Technology because it was missing from Wikipedia. after i made the page it said the original was deleted by you. Assuming the page had information relative to the degree program you should have it restored.

thanks, c1c2c3c4c — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.52.62.132 (talk) 22:45, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a problem with the term Persianate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.184.191.86 (talk) 20:49, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

By the way steel, you are clearly on a powertrip because nothing justified protecting the seljuk article after my edit, even though i was correcting the info that was ruined before me, but it seems you didnt care about the previous person who edited the page. I dont know whos back youre trying to scratch but your abuse of admin power is resulting in the corruption of true and neutral information in the seljuk empire article, and your reverts are favoring the turkish oriented agendas. You should know something, as a life lesson, because perhaps youre too young and immature to realise it. What goes around comes around. Abusing your power just because you think you are the authority in a silly internet site will come back to bite you one day in the outside world. When it comes back to bite you, youll know you deserve it. ;) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.184.191.86 (talk) 21:46, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

RFPP archive bot

Disambiguation link notification for October 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Android (operating system), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hardware (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 15:28, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

De-linking...

Can you explain the rational behind de-linking the CEO's bios (who do not have personal wiki pages) from the Humanitarian Coalition page? I really cannot understand what the issue with that.

Also, why would you remove "member agencies" and links to their Wiki pages. This is critical information, and is a neutral statement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HCIntern (talk • contribs) 18:17, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

For the links, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Links ("Do not use external links in the body of an article. Articles can include an external links section at the end, pointing to further information outside Wikipedia as distinct from citing sources.").
The member organisations are named and linked in the very first sentence of the article, so the section I removed was just duplicate information. – Steel 18:23, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhh yes. Okay thank you for the justification. Appreciated. --HCIntern (talk) 18:28, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
