Just a heads up

Doesn't look like your final warning had much of an impact. TimothyJosephWood 20:22, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can tell they have not uploaded a single item since I posted the warning. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:36, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's what I get for being sloppy. Your warning was so far up their talk page I didn't notice the upload times. Just the tagging catching up with the uploads then. TimothyJosephWood 20:51, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I have been checking periodically to see if they have done anything new. To be honest, I'm a little surprised. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:32, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ali Shilatifard

Thank you, Ad Orientem, for posting a warning about having an edit war. I have created and contributed to the Ali Shilatifard page for about three years, simply adding scientific accomplishments. The page has recently come under a barrage of edits including removing awards, making comments about "not necessarily major" discoveries (which have now been completely removed), and insisting on a COI and placing a COI template box over and over again, even though the page is very neutral and sourced. This type of unsubstantiated edits should not be allowed. I have attempted to use the appropriate channels of communication, including "cleaning up" the page, writing polite comments on Talk pages (which are deleted rather than responded to by Natureium and now a number IP address). If you could kindly please help stop these edits and block the placement of the COI template box on the Ali Shilatifard article, it would be greatly appreciated. This page is helpful in bringing attention to the important work that Dr. Shilatifard and his colleagues are doing on childhood leukemia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Magnolia007 (talk • contribs) 18:57, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is currently being discussed at WP:ANI. Let's keep the conversation there. Thanks. -Ad Orientem (talk) 19:11, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Great Depression (Defiance, Ohio album), Midwestern Minutes, and The Fear, the Fear, the Fear

Hello. You deleted Great Depression (Defiance, Ohio album), The Fear, the Fear, the Fear and Midwestern Minutes because Defiance, Ohio (band) was deleted in error. I'm wondering if you could reverse this. --Evanw (talk) 15:11, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Evanw, I am declining recreation of the latter two albums. After looking at them I can't find any credible claim of importance much less notability. I found no record of Great Depression (Defiance, Ohio album). If it was under a different name let me know and I will take a look. If you feel that the subjects of these articles have a credible claim of importance you can appeal their deletion at WP:DELREV. Best regards... -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:06, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry it was The Great Depression (Defiance, Ohio album) the albums weren't deleted for lack of notability they were deleted because the page for Defiance, Ohio (band) was deleted for lack of sources. I had the page restored and re wrote it with sources. Defiance, Ohio is one of the most prominent bands in the wave of DIY punk in the mid-late 00s. They had multiple tours of the USA, Canada, Iceland, and Europe. Their albums were reviewed on notable music websites see: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] These albums have had significant impact on punk and are worthy to have an article dedicated to them.

On the recreation page for these articles it says to message the user who deleted them with concerns, let me know if you would rather me direct these concerns to WP:DELREV.

Template:Sony Franchises

Template:Sony Franchises was deleted by you as "Unused, redundant template", but it has 31 transclusions. Please restore it and send it to WP:TFD if you want to have it deleted. 98.230.196.215 (talk) 22:03, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done File this under WTH was I thinking? -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:44, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:RockHarper at it again

User:RockHarper went right back to vandalizing the page at MasterChef Junior (U.S. season 5), this time adding junk details to the table. Seems he didn't get your message about behaving better. - SanAnMan (talk) 22:40, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

He has been put on notice. Let me know if there is anymore trouble. -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:56, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
