Page moved
[edit]Your article was about to be deleted, so I moved it to your user page. People won't tend to bother it there. For a list of reasons why it's not a good idea to create articles about yourself, please see WP:AUTO. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Friday 16:44, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
- Howdy. I've restored it since I couldn't see a good reason why it was deleted. I've informed Zoe too, in case there's disagreement. Friday (talk) 19:23, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
- BTW, no offense intended, but it is a bit understandable to me how someone could look at your editing history and decide you're up to no good. Messing with an Afd is definitely a bad thing. However, you're obviously new, and we have an idea around here about not biting the newbies. Anyway, many editors come in and do questionable things at first until they learn a bit more about how things work here. It's not a big deal. Let me know if you have any questions or anything.

- I deleted it because of the bad faith deletion of all of the AfD votes and the blatant vandalism of moving the AfD page while the discussion was ongoing, as well as the removal of the AfD header. It's also blatant advertising. But in order to avoid a delete war, I'll take it to MFD. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:36, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
Some suggestions
[edit]Your user page wouldn't be controversial if it didn't look so much like an ad. Really it should be a place where you talk about yourself. Maybe it would help for you to think about what drew you to Wikipedia (obviously you thought enough of the project to put info on your own development here) and what contributions you'd be inclined to make. Cheers! BD2412 T 04:35, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
Word Association
[edit]I'm confused. What does advertisement have to do with Moby? --hydnjo talk 20:07, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
- Hmmm... ;) In Belarus, his song "Why Does My Heart" is used in advertisement of Coca-Cola's product - BonAqua :-) --WBR, Andrew O. Shadoura 11:03, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
- Ah ... my apologies for removing it. It's too late for me to put it back as it wont connect with the word that replaced it. Sorry :-( --hydnjo talk 14:14, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
