Welcome to my talk page

I treat my talk page as a top level landing page for all discussion and as such archive stale discussions quickly. If a conversation started elsewhere, I will be watching it. If it starts here I will watch it here. Thanks.

Pizza Patrón

Thank you very much for photographing the Pizza Patrón HQ! Are you open to more photo requests? WhisperToMe (talk) 22:09, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Within Reason. I've done a bunch of photo requests this past couple of weeks (~20) so I'm probably going to be hands off for a couple of weeks as a 70 mile trip every weekend is not as fun. Hasteur (talk) 22:13, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's fine if I only list requests in the Dallas area, right? I have quite a few requests in the Dallas area. WhisperToMe (talk) 22:14, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Northern half of Dallas County I can do fairly quickly. South half (South of Downtown) takes longer. I also do some Collin County sites as I'm near the Dallas/Collin county border

Alright, so there are some requests. If you already have any of the following, please let me know. If you want to take your time or only do certain ones for now, that's fine too. If you want more than what I posted, please let me know, and I can post more.

Thank you, WhisperToMe (talk) 23:28, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bad news, the WH ISD building (which I assume was on that little triangle of land between the gas station and the highway) is already demolished. Hasteur (talk) 18:14, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just to make sure, was it located on this parcel? WhisperToMe (talk) 22:00, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If it's the building that's listed as the Imperialist University of America, I got a shot of that. There were no WH-ISD logos on it. I was referring to the little triangle as the 2nd link you sent is what I though was the WHISD building. I'll upload what I have shortly Hasteur (talk) 22:05, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. I look forward to seeing the image :) WhisperToMe (talk) 22:19, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There is a triangle of land with nothing on it, but maybe that's not where the building was after all... WhisperToMe (talk) 22:02, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The triangle that may have been empty was empty back in 2001: http://msrmaps.com/image.aspx?T=4&S=9&Z=14&X=7100&Y=36216&W=3&qs=%7cDallas%7cTX - It seems like the building itself is still standing WhisperToMe (talk) 22:10, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please let me know when you post any photos taken over the weekend. I'll add them to articles WhisperToMe (talk) 17:05, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry it took so long to upload. Hardware failure prevented me from uploading quickly. Hasteur (talk) 08:14, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! I just added it to the WHISD article WhisperToMe (talk) 13:52, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Highland Park Done. Hasteur (talk) 20:34, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for getting these! WhisperToMe (talk) 21:43, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re-review of sandboxed article

Hey Hasteur. I was wondering if you'd be up to re-reviewing my sandboxed article. I've reworked and renamed the proposed article to make it about industry as a whole as opposed to a single website within the industry. It may also be worth noting that a similar article (Mugshots removal) was recently created. My thinking is that new article, based on its contents, would be more suited as a redirect to my proposed article if it were move to mainspace. Again, if you are up for it and have time, take a look at User:TreyGeek/Mugshot_Publishing_Industry and tell me what you think about this version of it. Thanks! --TreyGeek (talk) 17:59, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looking good to me, the only problem I have with it (and it's minor and personal) is that both the Texas references are to the bill's status without any independent coverage. I also note that both the references are at the end of the Texas section and not in the middle. Hasteur (talk) 18:21, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I had the same issue with the Texas legislation. I was surprised I couldn't find news reports of it. It's possible that it and other legislation might have to be dropped, in terms of details, in a few months if they never get past the legislature. I think I'll adjust where the references are and keep an eye on the progress and any news over the next couple of months. Thanks for the feedback. --TreyGeek (talk) 19:10, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Floaters

Hmmm. You may be right, they probably don't do much. I'll go ahead and remove two, leaving just the temporary advert. Thanks for your concerns. Regarding the reasons I reply to people at RfA, please see my reply here. That said, since a number of editors have said, in various ways, that I should stop replying to most people there, I will indeed try to do so. I just hope that people won't start complaining then that I am ignoring their input. Cheers, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 16:11, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

AfC

Hello, Hasteur. I have been involved with the Articles for Creation WikiProject for a few months now and I recently put a box at the top of my talk page for people who want information about why their AfC was declined. Just looking at your talk page headers, I noticed you get a large amount of messages from people whose articles you have declined. So did I. However, this box has drastically reduced these types of encounters. Check out my talk page and feel free to steal this box. Thanks, TheOneSean | Talk to me 02:59, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Timeshift9 (3rd nomination)

Hello Hasteur. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Timeshift9 (3rd nomination), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: this isn't nonsense or vandalism - the IP wants to raise an MfD but, as an IP, is unable to create the MfD page. I'll do it for him. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 16:39, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for doing the "priorXfD" bit - I was having trouble following the not-very-clear instructions for a second-or-subsequent MfD! JohnCD (talk) 17:00, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
YVW, I saw the creation and recognized it as a non-twinkle assisted creation so I pulled the "Previous AfDs" bit from the preivous nomination. Hasteur (talk) 17:05, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Fedz

Hi Hasteur, you have declined the creation of the article, Fedz, because the Plot and Cast sections were not referenced. I have never previously come across a plot/synopsis or cast list section, which has been referenced before.

My understanding of the plot section is that unless there is commentary or opinion within the summary then this does not need to sourced, as per WP:PLOTPRESENT. From what I thought is normal practice, I have attempted to write the plot factually after viewing the film, as per WP:PLOTSUMMARIZE. There are brief summaries available on the following links; [1][2][3] which are included in the article.

The partial cast list can be verified on the IMDb page (although this is in a different order to the closing credits of the film), which has been included within the External links section. Tanbircdq (talk) 23:00, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB is not a reliable source. Even if it were the case that the 2 sections you cherry picked, the further section on the page Wikipedia:PLOTPRESENT#Citations clearly states that you need to have at least one citation to fall under the WP:V requirement. Now if those 2 sections can get cited (even if it's a single citation that shows that they're verifyable, then we're in business. Hasteur (talk) 00:40, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, citations have now been added to the two sections, thanks. Tanbircdq (talk) 02:02, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Help

I was wondering if you could help me argue my stance on this AfD Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/WWE_Payback or am I in the wrong here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paul "The Wall" (talk • contribs) 15:21, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You placed a warning on my talk page?

Hi there! You placed a warning on my talk page with a few links about Wikipedia policy and sanctions. I've read through all of those links previously. Could you please describe specifically how my edits constitute "inappropriate behavior"? Incidentally, I think it would have been courteous for you to do so initially, rather than copy and pasting a warning, as per WP:BITE. A less informed wiki user might definitely have been put off by such behavior.

I note specifically you've linked to a sanctions for off-wiki canvassing, which is ironic, as the only off-wiki discussion I'm aware of is your post here. Then today, when attempting to look up the recent UFC 159 results, I hit the horridly organized 2013_in_UFC page and was reminded of the discussion there. I read through a good portion of the MMA-related talks on Wikipedia and felt that my posted approach was a good place to start improving the current format, since the aforementioned page is definitely an eyesore, to me. If you disagree, well, that's what the section I created is for.

HeyDecency (talk) 05:09, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Being that you're way too familiar with wikipedia policy for the length of your edit history (as evidenced by your straw poll posting and your claims here), we'll just go ahead and throw out your accusation of bite. In fact I'd be tempted to level a WP:SOCK accusation at you, but you've not given enough data points to draw a reasonable attempt at a successful SPI. The same "Revert to status quo ante what worked" argument is not going to happen. If we were to follow your plan, we'd have individual event articles be created (as soon as someone on UFC staff hints at it) and deleted (because it fails WP policy and fails IAR reasoning). As for the reddit post, I was trying to go into the lions den and explain. In no way did I attempt to canvas for a a specific action, but try to recruit new editors to help improve the broad swath of MMA articles. The information I linked to you was the standard boilerplate warning that reminds users who are not adhering to the primary purpose of wikipedia, that MMA articles are under community restrictions and that Administrators have a lower threshold for applying sanctions. I disagree with your premise that the page is an eyesore (as I've seen a great many other articles that have greater problems). I object to you being just the next in a line of faceless burner accounts calling the same question without paying attention to the rest of the page and why the previous requests failed. Hasteur (talk) 11:37, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again. You can disagree with my propositions all you'd like, that's your right as a fellow editor. That doesn't in any way mean my actions constitute inappropriate behavior, however, which is what the warning you placed on my page quite clearly says. Unless you can specifically provide an example of such behavior, as I very directly asked you to do in my post above, please remove your additions from my talk page. I'll ignore the rest of the intimidatory assumptions as they really have no significance or place here- feel free to launch any sort of SPI proposals whenever you'd like and I'll submit to them willingly. HeyDecency (talk) 23:16, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Once the notification of the GS/MMA is given it can't be un-given. And your continued seeking of a pound of flesh only strengthens the case of your disruption of wikipedia. So, by all means go ahead and have a tantrum and call for my head on a platter. It makes exercising the GS against you that much easier. Hasteur (talk) 23:20, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't sought anything here other than an explanation of the warning for "inappropriate behavior". You've now declined to give such reasoning twice, despite being asked to do so very directly. HeyDecency (talk) 01:05, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I'll play. Your familiarity with Wikipedia policy, claiming the BITE exception, and our continued taking offense strongly suggests that you're not a new editor, but one who has either been editing previously under a different name (and therefore a Sockpuppet) or someone who was recruited (External Canvassing) and is being coached from outside to try and get me to do something regretable. I will respond no further and will take any further postings here as harassment. I made a single posting on your talk page and now you've come back multiple times. I formally invite you to put your money where your mouth is and bring me to administrator attention so that your actions may be investigated as well. Hasteur (talk) 01:28, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for volunteering your time at the DRN, the GITS dispute is a problematic one for me, but I hope the acknowledgement of appreciation in my latest post is a welcome one. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 14:30, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seeking for Guidance

Hi Hasteur,

I submitted an article on 'Cullen Investments', which was reviewed by you and later got declined on 17 April 2013. Here's the link for your reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Cullen_Investments

Previously the article was declined on 31 March 2013 due to insufficient references considering which the reference list was updated considerably.

This time the reason for rejection is 'promotional stuff'. I'll be grateful if you can help me with the edition and successful submission of the same article. Additionally it would good if you can point out few sentences in the article which sounds like promotional stuff.

Thanks Ingoddess2805
