Speedy deletion nomination of Julian 'Nitrane' Lane

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Julian 'Nitrane' Lane, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. LlamaAl (talk) 19:26, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

you should explain everything succinctly and eloquently to the blackkite admin fella who deleted it. Then if that doesn't work use the appeal process. i dropped you a note on my talk page. PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 21:57, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Format changes

Hey, I understand where you're coming from on this but take a sec to read over the post I just made. I'm worried that you'll both probably end up blocked for warring over this which is pretty silly. I'm working on a post to the WP:ANRFC board to ask someone to review things, offer an opinion and suggest next steps. Would you agree to holding off anymore changes until that happens? Stuff like this sucks especially if articles are the WP:WRONGVERSION but no need for more drama around here if it can be avoid. Sound okay? Ravensfire (talk) 17:58, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

Message left at ANRFC is here. No idea how long it will take but hopefully not too long. Ravensfire (talk) 18:10, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

I agreed to it, but he is still making changes and trying to dictate his agenda. Diplomacy is a 2 way street. Willdawg111 (talk) 21:15, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

strikeout

I think the strikeout is a good idea. A conservative move at that PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 20:48, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

I think its a great idea if JadeSnake is a sock puppet or mirror user. Willdawg keep doing it.

So I'm signing off from the wiki mma project and will just lurk from now on until some outside force acts to move on the project and create a rational guideline for notability, that doesn't revolve around inheriting notability from an event. But, do drop me a line or point out any of the far flung wiki pages that I might have input on. I think I might go look around over at the martial arts project or the kickboxing taskforce. I'm a big k-1 fan too. PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 02:42, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Well said. See if I can maybe get pushing on the K-1 side I can get an overlap into k-1 heros maybe. But yeah, I'll keeo an eye out for julian lane refs. That was bogus what happened to that article. But, I'm thinking he really needs just one or two new refs to take it back for some kind of a re-creation appeal. PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 03:01, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi there. I don't believe we met. Let me just apologize in advance for the somewhat brusque message I've just left at User talk:PortlandOregon97217#Removal of comments and Afd from a banned user. I assure you that I have nothing against you personally, but I'm worried that if PO heeds your advice, he'll get himself blocked. So please forgive me if I've offended you in any way, but I really felt I needed to make it clear that your comment did not negate Bwilkins' warning. Discrediting your remarks seemed like the least of all possible evils. — Francophonie&Androphilie^{(Je vous invite à me parler)} 06:00, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

I think you interpreted what I was saying wrong. I was actually trying to do the opposite. Just in case he took it the same way that you did, I went back and clarified it.Willdawg111 (talk) 08:00, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing that up. There's a fine line between a "there, there" to an editor on thin ice, and an endorsement of their actions; I'm glad to see you're on the right side of that line. Incidentally, you might want to check out WP:AN#personal attack, as it's about a response to the barnstar you left Portland. Even more incidentally, it's always nice to meet another editor in good standing who's been blocked - this userbox might amuse you. — Francophonie&Androphilie^{(Je vous invite à me parler)} 01:17, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

I can't figure out what that was. People are giving out barnstars to editors that are having to be permantly banned, so I really don't understand why there is an issue with me wanting to recognize somebody who I believe is working for the best interest of the project. Willdawg111 (talk) 01:55, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

I agree, he's doing a good job with WP:TUF, but it was too early to give out a barnstar IMO. Regards. --LlamaAl (talk) 02:00, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

I think he is working hard to help move the project in a positive direction. There are a couple barnstars I've noticed given to people who I think in no way shape or form deserves it also, but I was respectful and stayed out of it. Willdawg111 (talk) 02:06, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

I guess you are talking about JonnyBonesJones (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). He was fair and helpful before November. I will remove that barnstar. --LlamaAl (talk) 02:10, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

There was more than one that I had in mind, but really I don't care about that. It's somebodies personal opinion how good of job somebody else is doing, and it's none of my business. I'm really at the point, that I just want all the BS to stop, and want to try to build a good reference for people to rely on for MMA information. If I wanted to argue MMA I would go hang out on the forums. Can we just find a happy medium on issues, something that everybody can live with and will make everybody satisfied?Willdawg111 (talk) 02:47, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
