Regarding your edit on St Thomas More RC Catholic upper school
Hi, In regards to your recent edit in which you reverted the change I made towards to the current head of St Thomas More, I believe you may have made a mistake: Joe Richardson has left as of the 18th July 2014 and has been replaced by Alison Wilshaw, I don't know whether you have affiliations with the school, but as I (and all other pupils at the school) have been notified, Alison Wilshaw is the new head as of September 2014. Kind regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KyleBarronTheScot (talk • contribs) 20:59, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
- Hiya, Thanks for your edits, But you need to provide source (A news article, or even a message on schools website will do),
- I've removed the warning as seems unintentional

FYI. I really hate to be the one having to do this (I'm not that kind of admin), but some people are getting exasperated now and something needs to be done. If you have any thoughts on it let me know on my tp. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:54, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

I beg your pardon. Earlier in the day there was a vandalism edit regarding Jai Brooks vs. Jay Brooks. I was attempting to revert that, but unfortunately I reverted the wrong version, and someone has already fixed the name. I did not mean to revert your edit. My apologies for my sloppy work! -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:12, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
- Ssilvers - Apology accepted and I apologize for the stupid edit summary, Other than a troll I've never had anyone call my edits vandalism so in the heat of the moment I got a bit pissed,
- Meh we all make mistakes so no worries :)
- Thank you for your apology - It actually does mean alot, And again I apologize for the edit summary,
- Have a nice day :)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harry J. Malony United States Army Reserve Center
I was wondering why you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harry J. Malony United States Army Reserve Center. The AFD discussion contained only one comment from an editor other than the article's creator and the editor who nominated it for deletion. There does not appear enough for a consensus either way. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 02:27, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
Your reason for deletion was and I quote "Fails WP:GNG. Lack of significant coverage in reliable sources", - Both Kevin and Hawkeye found alot of sources so notability was there and thus passed GNG perfectly fine, Feel free to go to DRV if you disagree. –- Scrap that - Sources don't look entirely great so relisting.

Re: Cheryl F-V
Why does she still professionally keep the surname of a cheating ex-husband who she had a turbulent marriage to? And all over the press now she is being referred to as Cheryl Fernandez-Versini: no mention of 'Cole' here. 80.111.184.146 (talk) 18:55, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Vauxhall bus station
For the record my posts to this article are not vandalism, I have explained the rationale for changes made, whether they are accepted is another issue, but I don't believe I have broken any rules in seeking to add to an article and discussing with those who have different opinions. Astbam (talk) 00:32, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- For the record Editing with an IP whilst using your account is something I nor the community like - See WP:SOCK,
- Me and another editor disagreed with your changes - You can keep adding it as much as you like but it's not going back in,
- At the end of the day you're becoming WP:DISRUPTIVE and are on very thin ice here, - If you wanna stay here alot longer than a week I suggest you stick to this account and to discuss your edits.
- Cheers, –Davey2010 • (talk) 01:29, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
I don't see any way to have closed this one either. I am going to ask that you re-open it and let an admin close it after this relist. John from Idegon (talk) 08:40, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- @John from Idegon: - After being up 3 weeks with 2 relists and 1 Keep with no Delete !votes - It's an obvious keep but as you asked nicely I'll happily relist it :),
- Regards, –Davey2010 • (talk) 13:59, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- The nomination clearly should count as a delete, and after my comment the keep was only a weak keep. You are right it will probably end up as a No consensus, but there is not enough there to say it is a keep. Thanks I appreciate it. John from Idegon (talk) 17:16, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- Well ofcourse I disagree but relisted so harm done :), You're welcome and thanks for asking :), Regards, –Davey2010 • (talk) 17:24, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Reversion of edits to page Take That
Hi Davey,
On August 3rd you reverted my edits to the page Take That. Specifically, you removed a visual timeline I had created showing the members of the band over time. I find it hard to understand how making a visual timeline is now an example of unconstructive editing when such timelines are commonplace on many similar pages to Take That?
As far as I'm concerned, it's also rather demeaning for you to give me the whole 'Welcome to Wikipedia' standardised response that you posted on my talk page. I have been contributing consistently to Wikipedia for well over 2 years, during which time I have made thousands of constructive edits.
I hope we can talk this through in an adult fashion, --Jonie148 (talk) 08:52, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Jonie,
- Nope I never reverted, Some IP reverted you and I simply gave you a warning, Robbies career is all mentioned above so I didn't see much point it being there, Usually they're added if new members come & go which other than Robbie none have,
- As for the warning I apologize for that I assumed you added it more than once as there was a chunk of crap added by an IP but you hadn't - I've removed the warning :)
- Thanks for your message,
- Regards, –Davey2010 • (talk) 11:53, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for explaining. :) I'll keep the graph on my user page in case it becomes useful in the future --Jonie148 (talk) 12:10, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

Admin?
I see you got into a bit of a dust-up about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016 Formula One season (3rd nomination). For what it's worth, I probably wouldn't have closed it so quickly. Sure, it was heading firmly in the snow-keep direction, but it wouldn't have hurt to let it run a couple of days. I don't think what you did was wrong, but maybe not the very best choice of action.
That being said, the big picture is I've seen you at AfD a lot and you seem to be like a pretty reasonable person, so would you mind if I nominated you to be an admin? You're already doing much of the work an admin does anyway, so why not get a mop of your own? -- RoySmith (talk) 00:11, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Roy, Looking back I could've and perhaps should've left it open longer,
- That means alot thank you but I dont have much patience (in the outside world and here) and plus from what I've seen It seems a more comfortable life not being an admin - But thank you for the offer it does mean alot so thank you,
- Anyway have a nice day,
- Regards, –Davey2010 • (talk) 01:14, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Hi Davey2010, I'm not going to make a big fuss, take this to DRV, or anything like that, but I notice that you both opened and then closed the above AFD. Per WP:BADNAC, I don't think this was appropriate, specifically because you "expressed an opinion in the discussion". Even as an admin, I choose to leave discussions I start for someone else to close, even in cases where the outcome is obvious. Like I said, it's not a big thing, just a suggestion for you to keep in mind in the future =). Lankiveil (speak to me) 07:05, 13 August 2014 (UTC).
- Hi @Lankiveil:, Although I did express an opinion I never had an issue with redirecting but looking back I shouldn't of redirected whatsoever,
- Anyway Thanks for the message and suggestion ,

Deleting changes made to article: Kemsey railway station
Hi Davey. I'm SoutheasternTrains but you can call me Chris. At 16:01 today I added content to the article of Kemsley railway station. Then, you deleted it. Why? I live in Kemsley, I use the station everyday and I am also a train entusiast. I added content about the services and you deleted it. I know the station and services through Kemsley like the back of my hand. I would just like to say that I think I have right to post extra content. Please let me know why you deleted my edit.
Thanks,
Chris
- Hiya @SoutheasternTrains:/Chris,
- I apologize for not using the edit summary, I reverted you as your username implied you worked for SE trains, I would strongly recommend you change your username as that way no one can say you work for the company,
- As for the reversion - I reverted as obviously assumed you simply worked for said company,
- I have absolutely no problems you readding your addition under a new name :),

Speedy deletion of articles about Paris Opera Ballet members
Hello Davey, I am very new to Wikipedia. I have noticed you tagged articles I worked on for deletion, about notable members of the Paris Opera Ballet. I believe the issue is notability. If the dancers are first soloists or principal dancers of Paris Opera Ballet, or choreographers of the Paris Opera Ballet whose work is performed around the world, are they not notable ? Is is a problem of references ? I believed that the references I supplied establish notability. Could you please explain why you feel this is not the case ? I would appreciate your advice getting the articles in line with wikipedia guidelines, rather than deleted. Also, many of the articles, but far from all, establishing notability are in French, this seems to be permitted by wikipedia guidelines. Finally, considering only the dancer section of the article samuel murez, with reference of soloist repertoire on the Paris Opera Ballet site : in the world of dance, anyone who has performed soloist roles at the Paris Opera Ballet is notable.
