Rename bot account

You have a current request for bot approval at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/SSTbot 3. I suggest that you request the bot account to be renamed to "Feministbot" or "FeministBot" to correspond to your current username. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 16:12, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I will consider it. feminist 16:35, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

TFD closes

You're off by a day, friend. May 22 doesn't roll over until tomorrow. Cheers, Primefac (talk) 18:01, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Deletion process states Discussions are usually closed after seven days (168 hours). Or is it still better to wait until the next day? feminist 18:07, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I generally wait until I see discussions in Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Old unclosed discussions. The "day" rolls over at midnight UTC, so there can be a bit of fudging as far as the exact hours go. You're just the third person I've seen in two days that is closing discussions early, so I've been notifying all parties about it. Primefac (talk) 00:56, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What I mean is, I don't consider closing discussions that have been opened for more than 168 hours as early. feminist 01:45, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AXN Pakistan

You closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/AXN Pakistan as "redirect", but AXN Pakistan was not actually redirected because the target you chose is the same as the article you would redirect. The article should be redirected to AXN (India). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 02:08, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, thanks. feminist 10:52, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder whether it was the right idea to close Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SAS Tag Team Championship as "merge to SAS Wrestling" given that the SAS Wrestling article doesn't exist. (It was a redirect to a page that has since been deleted, and the redirect itself has been deleted.) Did you mean to move the article to SAS Wrestling instead? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 14:31, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That's funny, when I closed that AfD discussion I don't remember seeing an AfD tag on SAS Wrestling. Either I was wrong and that article was indeed nominated for deletion (in this case I am happy to reverse my closure), or Jo-Jo Eumerus deleted an incorrect article. feminist 01:27, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
SAS Wrestling had been a redirect to Real Quality Wrestling since 2009, but the latter was deleted yesterday via AFD. You'll probably have to reverse your close if only because the only real option from here is to close as "delete". Primefac (talk) 01:34, 4 June 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)[reply]
I see, thanks. I have reversed my closure. feminist 02:17, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:37, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Southern Airways Express logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Southern Airways Express logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:54, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You closed this AfD as userfy. Its been moved back into the main space without changes. Just giving you a heads up. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:56, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And... moved back. I'll keep an eye on it. Primefac (talk) 22:03, 10 June 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)[reply]
Thanks, Primefac! I almost moved it myself but wanted to give Feminist a heads up. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:25, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

BAGBot: Your bot request SSTbot 3

The US dictionary template was deleted after discussion by only 4 editors even though it fills an important niche since hundreds of millions of English-speakers have grown up with it. I suspect those editors involved may have little anglospheric experience outside the United Kingdom.

I teach English and have worked in dozens of primary and secondary schools in Australia and in dozens of elementary, middle, and high schools in the USA; I have even taught in cued speech. None of these schools taught English pronunciation with the IPA; they all used the short vowels ă, ĕ, ĭ, ŏ, ŭ, o͝o, and ə for æ, ɛ, ɪ, ɒ, ʌ, ʊ, and ə; the long vowels ā, ē, ī, ō, and o͞o for eɪ, iː, aɪ, oʊ, and uː; the digraphs ah, ar, aw, er, ow, and oy, for ɑː, ɑːɹ, ɔː, əɹ, aʊ, and ɔɪ; and the digraphs ch, dh, kh, sh, th, wh, zh, and ng for tʃ, ð, x, ʃ, θ, hw, ʒ, and ŋ. The relationship between short vowels and long vowels is crucial to teaching emerging phonics and this is done naturally with the breve ◌̆ for short vowels and the macron ◌̄ for long vowels. The only new character a student must learn is the schwa ə. This breve and macron system is employed in museums, zoos, dictionaries, and teaching aids across Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the USA.

Could you please reconsider the deletion? Thecurran (talk) 04:31, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not the one who closed the discussion. You will have to discuss with the closing admin first. feminist 05:59, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Who did? Thecurran (talk) 07:40, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, looked at the wrong discussion. You would have to go through the WP:DRV process, as there was clear consensus at the discussion that the template should be deleted. feminist 10:34, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Camelcamelcamel, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
