Skirt article edit

Hi Shaliya waya, Thanks for editing Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy building the encyclopedia. You recently put back content I had deleted from the skirt article. I deleted the content because it did not meet our core policies. I've explained a little more on the article talk page. Please address these concerns before putting the content back. If you have any questions about this feel free to leave a message here or at the bottom of my talk page. You can find out more about contributing to our encyclopedia by visiting our welcome page. Happy editing! -- SiobhanHansa 15:22, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Cpsignal.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cpsignal.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:10, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Taser and Taser controversy articles

Hi, thanks for the message. I copied your message to Talk:Taser#Suggested merge with Taser controversy and will continue the discussion there. There is also an archived discussion at Talk:Taser controversy#Rename that has more background on "Electroshock weapon" vs "Taser". Flatscan 01:28, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

G'day. You might like to see my own discussion proposal. Cheers Bjenks (talk) 07:35, 7 January 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bjenks (talkcontribs)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wal-Mart (disambiguation)

I've added an opinion of "rename" in the discussion which appears not to have been considered in the debate. I encourage you to review my reasoning at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wal-Mart (disambiguation) and determine if you need to reconsider your !vote. Regards. -- Whpq 18:20, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wal-Mart (disambiguation)

I have reverted your move back to Wal-Mart (disambiguation) again. While there was no consensus reached in the AfD vote, I am convinced that consensus was moving in the direction of moving the article to the List of Wal-Mart articles name, instead of deletion, which I am willing to compromise on. I am not sure why the admin in this case closed the discussion, when it is clear that there was still active discussion going on (I personally was getting ready to change my vote as it was). I still firmly believe that Wal-Mart needs no disambiguation page (based on the description of disambiguation pages). None of the items listed are going to ever be confused with Wal-Mart, but all are connected -- so the list naming is more appropriate here and the disambiguation page is completely inappropriate and unacceptable. I stand firm on this. Dr. Cash (talk) 16:10, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at WP:AFD, it is clearly stated that an article can be kept, but NOT renamed. Shaliya waya (talk) 17:49, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop this. The article needs no disambiguation, and it is completely and totally inappropriate. There is nothing on the AfD that says it cannot be renamed. I am also disputing the 'no consensus' that the closing admin put on it: the way I see it, there were 7 named users in favor of deletion, 3 named users (and 2 anons with less than 10 edits) in favor of keeping, 4 named users in favor of renaming, and 1 anon in favor of moving to Wal-Mart. So you don't have any consensus to keep this at a disambiguationn page, either. Dr. Cash (talk) 18:53, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Shaliya waya - walmart's flunkies have taken total control of the walmart article... there's no way for you to do anything to it that they won't just revert. Yet another of the ways WM screws with everyone. (How much you wanna bet they delete this post??)

Speedy deletion of Wal-Mart (disambiguation)

A tag has been placed on Wal-Mart (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Wal-Mart (Disambiguation)

Please stop re-creating this page and inserting it at Wal-Mart. The page does not meet the guidelines of being a disambiguation page per WP:DISAMBIG, and is nothing more than a list of 'see also' links. Per discussion at Talk:Wal-Mart, the 'see also' links were merged with Wal-Mart and placed in the 'see also' section of that page (by another user, as a matter of fact, not me). While I do recognize that no consensus for deletion was achieved at the WP:AfD for Wal-Mart (disambiguation), the reality of the situation is that very few (two named users and yourself and two anons with less than 10 edits each) actually wanted to keep it, and most either recommended deletion or moving the page to List of Wal-Mart articles, which is the compromise that I initially took. I then later decided that it was best to place the 'see also' list in the actual Wal-Mart article itself, which would increase the visibility of each of the articles in the list (you should be happy about this).

If you continue to place this cat-and-mouse game with this article without discussing your actions on the talk page or even leaving an edit summary, it will be considered vandalism and you will be banned. Dr. Cash (talk) 22:43, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think that Derek.cashman has some valid points, and that you have some valid arguments as well. Instead of directly talking to one another you have both ignored each other. It think it would be best if both of you would talk about it at Talk:Wal-Mart#List of Wal-Mart articles before doing anything else (deleting Wal-Mart (disambiguation) or adding the disambig link at the top of the Wal-mart page). Thank you. (and welcome to wikipedia). Jon513 (talk) 00:01, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All through this process, there may be others who are for or against this article based on what they have read others wite about. At the same time, a single user, Derek Cashman, seems determined to kill a Wal-Mart disambiguation page out, perhaps out of a personal distaste for one. He just says he is firm and will not budge on it otherwise. Wikipedians are supposed to improve, NOT destroy Wikipedia. A Wikipedia page is only supposed to be deleted only if it is not notable or otherwise seriously inappropriate. The general practice is that when there is any doubt, the page is kept.Shaliya waya (talk) 01:48, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I do not believe that Derek Cashman is interested in destroying Wikipedia. To say that anyone who doesn't think that there should be a disambiguation page is a vandal is not helpful. There are reasons to keep the page and reasons to delete it. What we need to do now is talk about it.
While pages are generally kept when there is 'no consensus' it does not mean that there is a consensus to kept. No consensus means that there is no consensus and more discussion has to take place. Pages can be moved or redirected or deleted if it will improve the encyclopedia by doing so; not only when they are 'not notable'.
Derek has explain his reasons for wanting the page to go at Talk:Wal-Mart#List of Wal-Mart articles. It would be appropriate for you to read what he says and respond. Please focus on reasons why you think the page adds to the quality of the encyclopedia, not on interpreting the AfD debate. Jon513 (talk) 10:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I feel that what Derek Cashman says about this page is propaganda for his own views, and is not allowing others to formulate their own ideas. I originally created this page because I found that our society has given "Wal-Mart" and "Walmart" other meanings beyond the name of the store, and indeed, there were Wikipedia articles on those meanings. The easiest way to find them would be via a disambiguation page after entering Wal-Mart and clicking on otheruses.Shaliya waya (talk) 15:39, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Derek has pointed out on the talk page that most of the content of the disambig page is integrated into the article and the rest are in the "see also". You have not responded to this. Jon513 (talk) 19:53, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Wal-Mart (disambiguation)

An article that you have been involved in editing, Wal-Mart (disambiguation), has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wal-Mart (disambiguation) (2nd nomination). Thank you. Jon513 (talk) 14:36, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Walmart (disambiguation), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Wal-Mart (disambiguation). It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

AfD nomination of Roach Motel (computing)

I have nominated Roach Motel (computing), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roach Motel (computing). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 21:07, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Toni (slang), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Toni (slang)

An editor has nominated Toni (slang), an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toni (slang) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 16:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

July 2008

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to move Roach Motel by copying its content and pasting it into Roach Motel (product). This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. --Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 17:54, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for uploading Image:Intown.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 00:11, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Intown.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sdrtirs (talk) 22:38, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Trust

Hallo, the article at Trust (social sciences) already covers the concept of trust in the way your new article seems to be doing, so I've reverted your edits to make it back to a redirect and will do a Requested Move to return to the previous situation. "Trust" is a word with "no primary usage", so the disambiguation page needs to be at Trust. PamD (talk) 07:58, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Wet paint sign

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Wet paint sign, 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.

If you wish to contest the delete consensus of the WP:AFD I have no problem with you bringing this to deletion review if you want to. Cirt (talk) 00:06, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your comment: The closing admin, most likely working fast through the whole thing, probably saw the overwhelming number of "deletes," and just said "the result was delete" with no further comment. -- This is not only incorrect and an assumption on your part - it is an inappropriate comment and not conducive to constructive dialogue in the deletion review. I respectfully request that you refactor your comment there. Thank you. Cirt (talk) 15:38, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent comments at the DRV are neither productive nor justified. Please remain civil and refrain from inferring negative motives just because things didn't go your way. If you continue in your current vein at the deletion review, it is likely to be speedy-closed by an admin and/or you are liable to be blocked for disruption. Stifle (talk) 08:16, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Racism

Wikipedia is not the place for people who want to be victims. Looking over your talk page, you are clearly here to simply for disruptive purposes. Nor do I believe you are black, as we tend to have more pride than that. Please find another venue for editing and cease suggesting anyone disagreeing with you is racist, because that's absolutely disgusting. -- Logical Premise Ergo? 16:28, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Abuse relisting

I am extremely shocked that User:Plastikspork has relisted ‎ Abuse. It has been a major nightmare for me having to waste my time on this - now the ordeal goes on for another week. I dont think User:Plastikspork looked at this properly, all those who wanted deletion have now withdrawn or moved to a neutral stance (User:Apoc2400 for example. There isnt any compromise to be reached as the view is now unanimously a Keep. There has been far too much discussion already.

Abuse TFD looks like a complete mess

see User_talk:Plastikspork#Please_tell_where_i_have_voted_twice_in_the_new_discussion_.3F

It looks like administrators just count bits of emboldened text and ignore the fact that opinions may change as the result of discussion. 3 of the editors in the 1st TFD changed from delete to neutral but User:Plastikspork looks to have ignored that and just gone by their initial positions. If he had picked up their later views there would have been no justification for relisting the TFD and wasting everybodies time all over again.--Penbat (talk) 18:35, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits

Hi Shaliya waya! I've noticed that you are a keen creator of articles for our encyclopedia, but many of your articles get nominated for deletion. I've been bold and had a look at most of your articles and I'm wondering if we could find a way together of avoiding all these unpleasant AfD discussions. I would be happy to work with you to find a solution, but you could also help by going through your articles and bringing them up to standard before they too get listed for deletion. You could start for example by tweaking the references so that they display properly without all the naked URLs. As I mentioned before, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page foe any suggestions. --Kudpung (talk) 11:02, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. I just thought that if you were to look occasionally at the relative high volume of controversy your edits generate, you might be able to adapt your efforts at editing and/or choice of creations in a way that might reduce the time other editors have to take discussing them.

Following on...

Hi Shaliya. Next time you want to initiate discussion on how an administrator closes a deletion debate, I'd suggest that you start be talking with the actual administrator. The day before you took this to DRV, I'd already been discussing the close on my talk, I'd despite you feeling like I'm an "attacking wikilawyer" most people find me pretty reasonable. As I stated several times during the DRV (but that oddly no one took me up on?) I'd have been happy to restore the deleted material into userspace and assist in improving the article.

British massacre

Hey! You are doing a good job of collating the massacre-scale crimes of Power. On the Mau Mau Uprising page, there's one of ours tucked away in the footnotes, the Chuka Massacre; see here for details. Rule, Britannia!

Lists of massacres: layout

It would be best if the tables wer automatically in chronological order. Otherwize, it's impossible for readers to sort the tables chronologically (unless we use YYYY/MM/DD format). Also, please remember that most countries don't use the US date format—for example, in the US it's January 1, 1900 but in the UK it's 1 January 1900.

I think we should follow the layout used on List of massacres in the United Kingdom or List of events named massacres.

What do you think? ~Asarlaí 19:41, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have been placing it in the American format, which I am accustomed to. I you wish to change it, I do not mind. Shaliya waya (talk) 19:58, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Višegrad massacres

Hello, I saw that you'd just added links in the Sjeverin massacre and Višegrad massacres. There are enough complications already in dealing with articles on massacres in the Bosnian war, notably the Srebrenica massacre/genocide, for me not to want to get involved in a wider project but if there is any information you particularly want to discuss please feel free to contact me. This is the anniversary period for the Višegrad massacres (anniversary period for many of the terrible things that happened in Bosnia in 1992 but in Višegrad it was a concentrated sequence of terrible events) - Pionirska Street happened on the 14th and Bikavac on the 27th. If you're interested in finding out more about Višegrad and Sjeverin, the Visegrad Genocide Memories blog[1] is a trustworthy source of background information.

I have been spending the past several weeks trying to create lists of massacres for each country, which is a huge job. I have been doing this because there is already a page called List of events named massacres that indiscriminately lists massacres. This list is very incomplete and it lists only a few hundred massacres. It appears there have been thousands of massacres throughout world history, and it is not practical to list them all on a single page. This is not a good page to keep in the future.
One problem that I have faced is that over time, many countries have merged, split, changed names, or changed boundaries. This leaves a question as to what list certain massacres belong in. At the moment, I have been trying in most cases, with exceptions, to place each massacre in the list in the country where the present location is. But it does not have to remain that way. If someone feels there is a better way to organize this or make these placements, this can always be discussed. I am open to any such ideas. Shaliya waya (talk) 00:24, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing articles

Hi. I've mentioned this several times previously but it appears that you are still not aware of the requirement to reference articles, in particular at Posthumous trial , a recent creation, and Parcopresis. Please follow the links on the welcome message to various help pages and provide references. Thanks.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:59, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am aware of referencing and I am generally a good referencer. I got side-tracked when creating this article and never got to do that. Whenever I have free time next, I plan to get to that and add more to the article as well. Shaliya waya (talk) 01:58, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
