== deletion of [[User:Doxiedana]] ==

You deleted [[User:Doxiedana]] with the log entry "Silliness". The page was indeed silly, but that is emphatically '''not''' a valid speedy deletion reason, and other far sillier user pages have been kept by MfD. Please restore this page promptly.

QUESTION RE STAVROS BROTHERS ARTICLE (JUST DELETED)

Hi. Just noticed that my just-created article for the band Stavros Brothers has been deleted. I'm not sure why - the band is legitimate, is part of the Melbourne music scene, has released a CD and has played live shows. I was not able to, as suggested, add the 'hangon' tag to the article because it has already been deleted.

Any follow-up would be much appreciated. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Schmozzle (talkcontribs) 13:20, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirecting

Hey! I am writing about UYDO and I see you redirected the UYDO page to United Youth Development Organization - first of all: Thank You :). Secondly, I was wondering how I change the original page from Uydo to UYDO (ie, all capitals)?? Regards... Chris! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chylland (talkcontribs) 15:45, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi. I know you're an administrator, so I hope you can answer this question: Do I have to have been on Wikipedia for a certain amount of time in order to be a good article reviewer? --Hadger 18:25, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you can (I don't expect you to), please answer that question as soon as possible. I'm not trying to rush you, by the way, so don't worry. --Hadger 23:17, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I have another question. How come this user and this user are blocked indefinitely? Jondavis142 didn't make any edits (not even in the Abuse Filter, if I'm not mistaken) and 85hypnotoad only made one edit (which is deleted, but I'm still confused). --Hadger 19:22, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I think I get it... Pages they created were deleted, so those edits aren't shown. --Hadger 19:24, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I have a question. Are my fan-fiction things ok on my user page? Please look at it so I'm more specific. Are my predicted TDM (Total Drama, the Musical) eliminations ok, too? Please answer me on my talk page.--Hadger 03:53, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please don't delete my user page if it's not. I also have some constructive things on it, so I can just remove the sections (and maybe even ask for other administrator's opinions, even if you say it's ok to have on my user page). --Hadger 03:54, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

With regard to MisterWiki

Is it worthwhile adding MisterWiki's restrictions (i.e. MisterWiki is to be checkusered regularly to make sure he uses no undeclared socks, and is to be re-blocked for even a single use thereof. Also, no talking to newbies, because he's too BITE-y) to Wikipedia:Editing restrictions#Placed by the Wikipedia community? I am also going to send this message to Drini, as the admin with whom MisterWiki made this agreement. -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 21:23, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Apology

I am sorry for my excessive use of my user pages, I did not know that they were causing any problems. Where may I download a free MediaWiki interface for my computer? Also, how do I delete these pages and any of my user pages that I've used as drafts for creating new pages? Rik (talk) 20:23, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So are you going delete page by page or are you just going to delete everything with the prefix User:Stolilv87? In other words is there something I can put on the top of pages that I want saved or would that just be a waste? Rik (talk) 21:03, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Living Downstream (film)

I would like to know why the page I created, Living Downstream (film) was deleted. The reason you gave was "(notability not asserted)" but that really doesn't tell me anything at all. This listing deserves to be published, so please tell me where I went wrong and how I can improve. Thanks. - AMS —Preceding undated comment added 19:20, 13 January 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Spacing Question

Your opinion, please. I've been getting rid of double spaces in long articles, but have recently discovered it doesn't affect how the article appears. Is it still good to make everything single spaced, or is it a waste of bandwith making those edits? -WarthogDemon 05:39, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Thanks. :) -WarthogDemon 19:39, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mova

Hi, I see you deleted an article on the MOVA Globe. I never saw the article, but I am I am curious about this because I invented the Mova globe and am working to make and sell it- Bill French —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.181.148.140 (talk) 18:27, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Survivor

So I got rid of the stupid articles, and even though I don't see who, exactly, I'm harming by making a separate page away from everything else that doesn't interfere with any other activity on the wiki, you can go ahead and delete them all you want. I'm sure you'll take great pleasure in doing so.

And might I suggest being a little less patronizing next time? SurvivorAdventures (talk) 16:46, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello DragonflySixtyseven! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 939 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

  1. Jeff Bowler - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL
  2. Jan Strnad - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks for the note re:Bedford. I was actually trying to engage him in discussion in a friendly manner - seeing a rather terse and cryptic Oppose on my current RfA, I was trying to learn more about the motivation. I had assumed what he had meant by lynching, but it seemed like a good way to politely open discussion. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 10:43, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In the end I think I got fed up of unconstructive criticism and sidelined the project; it's somewhat stamina-sapping so it's ended up pretty low on my list of priorities. I can't remember the details of how I left it, in the end. If I were to resurrect the project it would probably be in a less ambitious "start from scratch" fashion.

On my talk page, you are apparently referring to Tolu Ajayi. Nine of his books are listed in worldcat, a very useful place to search for basic info on an author. The two that I have checked so far are both held by the NY Public library and several other major libraries, so anyone who visits one of those libraries or uses inter-library loan can at least source to an "about the author" section. In short this was not unverifiable, merely unverified. I have restored since your stated reason for deletion does not apply, and am adding source notes. DES (talk) 17:51, 20 January 2010 (UTC) Copied from User talk:DESiegel.[reply]

I think i have found the original source that was used to write this: http://www.scribd.com/doc/11573530/Student-Encyclopedia-of-African-Literature (p 55). Check it out. This is listed in Google books, by the way, although i found it on a straight Google search. And check out the current state of the article. DES (talk) 18:46, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'm concerned about your summary deletion of the article Jatapurgovia. It appears that you decided it must be a hoax because it was referred to in a story by Stanislaw Lem. Let me say that I'm not an expert in Armenian prehistory, so I can't say whether it actually is a hoax, but it seemed to be well sourced and simply being mentioned in a work of fiction doesnt make it fictional. After all, one of Lem's stories refers to building a tunnel through the star Betelguese. The tunnel presumably is fictitious, the star is not! I really think you should have put the article up for AFD and let experts decide whether or not it was valid. In fact I propose that you restore it and AFD it. Then if it turns out that it is indeed bogus you can issue the author with a block rather than a mild rebuke. Rhomb (talk) 07:27, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. Rhomb (talk) 22:19, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for doing that. The disappointing but perhaps unsurprising result is that we now know that it's a hoax and I think that puts you in a position to go further with the author, who's clearly not here to build an encyclopaedia. Rhomb (talk) 09:23, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rebecca Shaw

This may be a silly question, but if the fictional character appeared on General Hospital, why did you name the article "Rebecca Shaw (Another World)"? --R'n'B (call me Russ) 09:58, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hans Frei

this article, which you deleted this morning, raises what i think to be an interesting question: is it copyright violation when the creator of the article is the owner of the copyright? as i pointed out in the discussion, the aricle was essentially verbatim (aside from my edits, i listed his death date, and deleted an excessively sentimental paragraph.) from a book on the subject by h.g. mathys, the subject's granddaughter. but h.g. mathys was the creator of the article. i think we can be quite sure that her intent was simply to tell her granddad's story in another venue, and that she would never come after wp for copyright infringement. the book, which was apparently self or vanity press published, may not even be copyrighted. bear in mind, my interest in the guy extends only to the fact that i own a piece of his work. now, while he was hardly a 20th century donatello, i think he is sufficiently notable to warrant inclusion here. it may be that her only failure was to include the licence statement.Toyokuni3 (talk) 17:25, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am still a newbee on wikipeadia. I was wondering if you can tell me what was the inappropriate use of the userpage that provoke to you to delete the page instead of asking for it to be corrected. SubtleCalmingFlow (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Please read Wikipedia:User page and Wikipedia:No original research; your material met our criteria for original research, and therefore had to be removed. Sorry. DS (talk) 21:10, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

That is probably a reasonable case for removal. I respect that. I will be happy to find another wiki or create my own to continue my pages... but would need my source text to do so. The Admins have access to this text and I don't.

Would it be possible that you email me the text or put a copy of it in my usertalk or somewhere I can access so that I can continue my work elsewhere? SubtleCalmingFlow (talk) 05:16, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lion FM - deleted page ?

I was writing a stub article on Lion FM (Melbourne Jewish Radio) in Melbourne Australia, with view of expanding it later.

I have offered to e-mail the deleted content to Wavecal22. I agree that SusanMCampbell may fail WP:Bio, but it might be a good idea to give Wavecal22 a chance to copy it off-line before proceeding with the deletion process. Rje (talk) 02:30, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dear DragonflySixtyseven,

I have noticed that the page i produced - What Mortgage has been deleted.

Re: OurStage page that I want to upload

Hi Dragonfly! Just wanted to drop you a line and see the reasoning behind the deletion of the OurStage page. I definitely think they deserve to have a page on here for all the hard work they've done for young artists such as myself and would like to do anything I can to give back to them. If you do still think it should be deleted is there any way I could get the information I put on the site back?

You moved my draft??

Is there a reason you moved a draft article from my userspace to mainspace that is so glaringly incomplete? There are things in there that aren't even complete sentences. I would appreciate it if you would allow me to move articles when I feel there are of sufficient quality for mainspace. Jim Miller See me | Touch me 02:20, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the move back. I will get to it, but have been dealing with a FLC and making a lot of corrections to others articles related to that list. Need to find some actual paper books to get that article ready to move. Jim Miller See me | Touch me 02:36, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mindful Eating Article

I'm the original author of the Mindful Eating article. I see that it was deleted without discussion for the reason that "(cited sources do not support article)" Can you be more specific? Or point out some areas that you feel require further sources. This field is growing very quickly and there are a great many additional sources I can cite. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rturtle (talkcontribs) 13:32, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Best of the Best Vol 1. Deletion

Hi, I noticed that the article for the W.A.S.P. compilation album "The Best of the Best, 1984-2000, Vol. 1" was deleted by you back in August of 2008. The original url was at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Best_of_the_Best:_1984-2000,_Vol._1&action=edit&redlink=1

I was wondering why specifically it was deleted (not notable, not verifiable, whatever). I couldn't find any discussion of it in your archived talk pages, so I'm not sure if this has already come up before. Since I'm not able to view the original page I'm not sure what needed to be changed in order to make it worth keeping (assuming that it was, which is why I'm asking. Maybe it just isn't worth having an article on that album?) If you can remember what the issue was with this page, I'd be happy to look into and address whatever was wrong with it. Dexeron (talk) 17:13, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted it because it was just a tracklist. There was no content. It didn`t say anything about who it was by or anything like that. Feel free to make a new version. DS (talk) 21:31, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored it for you. DF67 seemed to feel the article wasn't an encyclopedic article, but an magazine article; But whatever that doesn't allow for speedy deletion. But the article might end up at WP:AFD in the near future if people think it doesn't fit here. AzaToth 18:59, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Northwest Territorial Mint

Hi, you deleted Talk:Northwest Territorial Mint on 16 August 2009 with the rationale "dealt with." Could you please elaborate on what was meant by that? I'm trying to deal with some BLP issues on the article and want to make sure there was no previous discussion on it in the past. Thanks! —KuyaBriBriTalk 15:15, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You deleted Template talk:MC Hammer with the deletion reason of "not a forum". A) this is not a valid reason under the speedy deletion criteria. b) the template is a navigation template listing various articles about performances by MC Hammer. Therefore a mention of a specific performance could be an attempt (albeit poorly formatted) to fill in allegedly missing information, and thus an appropriate use of a talk page. DES (talk) 15:56, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A) Damn well is. B) Point taken; I'll restore it. DS (talk) 15:58, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
a) Which specific one of the WP:CSD does "Not a forum" translate to, please? I can't see it as fitting any of them. Perhaps i am overlooking something. It would, of course, often be a valid reason at WP:MFD. b) Thank you. DES (talk) 16:03, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You deleted Studio 1 Photography with a log reason of "notability not asserted" which i assume translates to WP:CSD#A7. however it seems to me that "...was featured as Utah's best wedding photographer on a budget." constitutes a claim of significance, even if it does not go all the way to establishing notability, making an A7 speedy incorrect.
