NOT FAIR

Why Did My Userbox page Get Deleted It's Userboxes, U Know The Things For Your Profile?

WELL IT'S NOT FAIR DELETING IT FOR NO REASON Makkapakka3ROBLOX (talk) 19:24, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

You created an article called ROBLOX Userboxes. If you go to WP:ARTICLE, it can give you some help on what kinds of things an article constitutes, but we don't make articles full of userboxes. --Smashville^talk 19:28, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Monicities

MoniCities (talk) 21:34, 10 July 2009 (UTC) May I ask for why our new page is deleted? And how can we add the page properly with out violating any of the rules? Many thanks =)

Wikipedia is not for advertising, but more importantly, your page made no claim to notability. Please see WP:ARTICLE for information on what a Wikipedia article should consist of. --Smashville^talk 21:37, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

MoniCities (talk) 21:56, 10 July 2009 (UTC) Thank you for writing back. I have read the link you have provided. Still do not know what exactly we have to do to list our company's information on Wikipedia. We are not using wikipedia page as an advertising tool. But creating the page to present the existence of the company. What we do, and what we are hoping to obtain from wikipedia is just like the rest of the social network websites like facebook, myspace, and others. Thank you.

Kentucky Derby, SEE ALSO links

Apparently you feel that the Kentucky Derby is not related to anything. Even the first three finishers of the race do not seem to make your list of ==See also== links even though it is consistently on many other Stakes Race pages throughout wikipedia. Is not the * Kentucky Oaks, * Kentucky Derby Festival * Kentucky Derby Pie, * Top 3 finishers of the race, * Triple Crown Productions, * 2009, 2008 or 2007 articles about the race, * Louisville, KY attractions or * US Triple Crown on television related to the Derby. Each of these or at least some of these should be listed as =See also==. What is the harm to referring any one to other information that is related to the Kentucky Derby???? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Craiglduncan (talk • contribs) 18:59, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

As you can see in the talk page and editing summary, every single one of those links is already either linked in the article in either an infobox underneath or the body actual body of the article...or was not directly related to the article. Adding links to a see also section that are already in the article goes against the spirit of WP:OVERLINK and WP:SEEALSO. It's not a case of being against "See Also" sections...it's the fact that after I cleaned out everything that was repeated or not directly related, it left an empty section...and we don't leave empty sections in articles. --Smashville^talk 19:06, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

This seems like a ridiculous page to me. Hard to believe it has survived for years. Newportm (talk) 04:03, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Yeah...it also doesn't link to any deletion discussions, which I find surprising...it seems like a prime candidate for AfD, though. --Smashville^talk 04:06, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Australian Pink Floyd Show

Thank you very much for locking the page :) I have been making every attempt to keep things civil, but a forum continues to send members over to change one individual thing. The members are increasingly aggressive and despite clearly being SPA's, excuse their actions by saying "its wiki policy".

Was wondering if you had any thoughts on this matter, if you could visit Wikipedia:Content_noticeboard#User:GODstrings.2C_User:colinwilson62.2C_User:Bandcorrection and comment. Thank you again, ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 22:31, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Since I protected it, I probably should stay out of the discussion...being the neutral third party and all...I just saw some heated comments coming across the recent changes, looked at the history and the talk page and realize it probably needed to be protected until it had a chance to cool down and be resolved. --Smashville^talk 13:21, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

True, that makes sense. It seems the edit war began 10 days sooner than I had noticed with the addition of the link. The following is the last revision prior to this: [1]

So, I was wondering if we could have the link removed (As it appears to be the original revision), and the article set to semi-protected (Either now or when the current protection expires Friday) to prevent SLA's from continuing to change it back and forth? -- ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 18:57, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

STEWART DOWNING

Hello, I have read the dispute resolution page and have decided to give you the benefit of the doubt on a situation. Recently I added a new picture to the page of Stewart Downing, when he joined the team I support. This was removed and so I have removed the opriginal picture as he does not play for that team anymore. The fact his picture is there in a middlesborough is not good for sets of either fans. For some reason you have replaced it over and over and I would like to kindly ask you to either put my picture back up or leave it removed. I have absolutly no idea why you would get involved in me posting a perfectly valid image to a page with no ill intent whatsoever.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Danwilson82 (talk • contribs)

You were warned for potentially violating the 3RR rule. In fact, you actually did violate it, but I decided to make you aware of the rule before you did it again. If you do revert again, I will block you. Not only are you edit warring, you are edit warring with copyrighted material - which I see you have been warned about numerous times. --Smashville^talk 16:38, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Today was the first time I had used wiki edits and the way you are informed of problems is not atall obvious, I thought you were just some idiot editing the page to mess it up, I have been taking time to try and make it right so I find it very rude that you did not properly contact me and explain. As I said the picture is WRONG and needs to be removed and as you clearly say as soon as I got told about the copy right problem I removed the uploaded picture so please don't try and use that one against me. If you proceed in returning the original picture you are vandalising a page and I will have no qualms about reporting you. Perhaps you need to grow up a little, I'ts sad they are giving 12yr olds power like this...
