Happy New Year!

[edit]

Dear Dlohcierekim,

Wishing you a happy a new year, and very best wishes for 2009. Whether we were friends or not in the past year, I hope 2009 will be better for us both.

Kind regards,

Lorrenzo Wade

[edit]

Re: you message on the Lorrenzo Wade talk page ...

Google News hits don't define notability. There are countless news articles about sports teams that identify members of the teams, even if they don't play in the game. That's just the way sports are reported. To define notability in sports, one needs several significant events, not just that a player played the sport. There are several discussions about WP:ATHLETE and sports notability at Wikipedia talk:Notability (athletes). Feel free to participate. Thanks. Truthanado (talk) 15:33, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Message

[edit]

Sorry I don't understand. If I try and revert a blanking by a page author, huggle will tell me to tag it for speedy deletion instead. Huggle did not so you must be mistaken. If I am wrong, please accept my apologies. Oliver Fury, Esq. message • contributions 23:02, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I understand. There was already a {{db-self}} template on the page, so when I reverted it went back to the version with the speedy deletion tag. Normally Huggle will ask if you want to add a deletion tag if the author blanked the page. You might know more about Huggle than me- it's not what usually happens. Oliver Fury, Esq. message • contributions 23:09, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Must be a flaw with Huggle. WP:CSD#G7 allows for the creator to blank the page. It would not be appropriate to revert, with or without Huggle. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 23:36, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Constructive Critisism

[edit]

I wish to bring to note the fact that you were involved in the deletion of a perfectly valid new article without giving any real reason. I would like to stress my feelings in a most polite but firm manner in saying that I strongly believe this was a welcome contribution. I will be expecting to see the return of the article entitled "Daffid's Epic Chin" and leave this duty in your hands as I feel I should not have to take care of this matter myself after spending my time in creating the informative article which I believe would have been in the interest of many readers. I would say to you that because of you, Wikipedia, as a whole, will be missing out on some vital and thought provoking information. Once again, I expect to see my article return in the very near future,

Yours Faithfully, Chegman (talk) 21:21, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have left Mr. Chegman a note on civility. And the "article" was obviously vandalism. — Satori Son 21:28, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I would like to apologise to both Dlohcierekim and Satori Son for one particular line that I seem to have used in my original post. I may have been slightly annoyed by the unprompted deletion of the aforementioned article. I most definitely did not intend this as an attack as I was in the middle of changing the main offending line when I received the message from Satori Son. However, in sticking with the theme of my original post, I still believe that there was no sufficient explanation for the deletion of my article. I spent a considerable amount of time in composing that article, which, frankly, if I had known this would be the outcome I would have spent in doing something else which may have been appreciated. I also strongly protest to the fact that it has been dubbed as "Vandalism." I find this extremely hurtful as I wrote the article with the best of intentions to contribute towards this magnificent and ever-growing website, and having it, metaphorically speaking, "tossed aside" is rather upsetting. The statement in which I stated that I expect to see the return of the article still applies and I still leave this in your hands, which I am sure will prove entirely capable.

Yours Faithfully Chegman (talk) 21:56, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

relevance of the marines article to James Zoll

In the article James Zoll, the cited page (www.dtic.mil/ndia/2005smallarms/agenda.pdf) was proving that he was in fact in the US army, and he was the chairman of the conference for military Weapons and Ammunition.

As for information on his musical career, I was about to edit that in when but it was deleted http://drzoll.webs.com/—Preceding unsigned comment added by Happyninjas (talkcontribs)

Notability is not confirmed on Danielle Fountain

[edit]

I have to politely disagree with your call on changing the Speedy Delete on Danielle Fountain to a prod, based on your claim that there is an assertion of notability because of the article's claim that Ms. Fountain and her bandmates registered "over 3 million hits" on YouTube for their version of a song "Luv Addict" and "Decode." I just went to YouTube and ran checks to see these videos. These were the messages I received:

No videos found for “fufu luv addict”
No videos found for “fufu decode”

In view of this, it appears the original Speedy Delete request was justified and that assertion of notability is nonexistent. Thank you. Ecoleetage (talk) 20:21, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

PS It appears this may be a hoax, as a Google search of Danielle Fountain and Fufu turns up absolutely nothing: [1]. In fact, nothing asserted about Danielle Fountain can be confirmed online. Something odd is afoot. Ecoleetage (talk) 20:22, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
PPS I have removed the prod tag and put up a G3. In view of the research I've done, I am convinced this is a blatant hoax. Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 20:32, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your note. The interpretation of significance and notability is often subjective -- I saw the claims in the original text to be highly dubious, which is why I went for A7 rather than a prod. However, in digging deeper, I realised this article was a phony. I am glad that we were able to work together and have this taken off the site. As always, it is a pleasure to work with you.

[edit]

No. Quite the contrary, in fact. We don't create derivative works from copyright violations, which is what editorially revising them does. The very good reason that {{copyvio}} points to a new page, where an article is started from scratch, is that the replacement that we create must not be derived from the copyrighted work, because otherwise it would be just as much a violation of copyright. This is also the very good reason that we have to lose all later edits when reverting past a copyright violation to a prior non-infringing version. One should not editorially revise a copyright violation, including editing it to re-word it. It should be removed, either by reversion to a non-infringing version or deletion, and fresh content written from scratch. Uncle G (talk) 03:51, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is not derivative if I say it in my own words. Which I did. My dad was a hairdresser. Ya gotta know these things, when your dad does hair for a living. Nothing remarkable about this info. Any hairdresser could tell you. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 04:00, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

comment from user unhappy with speedy deltion

[edit]

moved by me to bottom of page

I also would like to protest a claim made by you on 15JAN2009 on article the Lupopotumus. I have a copy of the article, and it was definately perfectly coherent. Do YOU live in Sodus NY. Do YOU know about the local lupopotumus legend. DO YOU LIVE IN FEAR OF GOING TO THE SUPERMARKET? WE DO. Deleting this article was an abomination, especially for the reasons you gave. As you can see from this message, I clearly have the ability to write coherently. Don't edit things you know nothing about.

On reviewing this, I stand by my deletion. Looks like BS at best, vandalism at worst. In the article, you give an obnoxious psuedo Linnaean classification. Of course, there are no reliable sources for this. The article name looks like a portmanteau of someone's name and "hippopotomus," thus I suspect this is a thinly veiled Attack page. The sum of the content, in light of all else, makes me feel deleting this as nonsense rather than as vandalism or an attack page was fairly generous and open-minded. If you believe that this page does in fact serve as an Encyclopedia article, that the subject not only exists, but has WP:reliable sources with verifiable information then I suggest you appeal at deletion review. Bear in mind that this looks like an attempt insult, denigrate, harass or humiliate a living person. Wikipedia has no tolerance for such. Cheers, and happy editing. Dlohcierekim 17:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm writing this to let you know that this artical was created as a part of a media studies project on wikipedia. I was doing research on vandalism, spamming, etc, and wikipedia's deletion policy. I hope there are no hard feelings, and I don't plan on trying this again. Just know that in dealing with this study in the way you did, you have seriously helped wikipedia's cause (at least in my paper). The article was meant to do no harm to anyone, just to get a real look at the inner workings of wikipedia. I do have one last question. How did you find the article? You probably didn't type Lupopotomus into the search bar. As an administrator, are you given a list of new pages to check, or do you all just check random ones. I read somewhere on your page that you were employed, and the article in question was made around noon, and erased around ten minutes after. What im really asking is weather or not their is a system for having admins check new articles, or ones that look suspicious. Thanks, and many apologies for sorta wasting your time, tikitrav — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tikitrav (talkcontribs)

I left Icat59 (talk · contribs) a message. If he requests unblocking and seems sincere and demonstrates he knows the rules and intends to follow them, please consider unblocking him. I don't know this guy but I do know sometimes people at his stage in life jump into a project not realizing it's not a playground, but once they do realize it's an active worksite and that their input is valued, they take it seriously. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 03:02, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. There's a conditional/probationary unblock path to follow, where the user selects an article to improve and works on it on there userpage to show they are redeemable. Blocks are only to protect the project, and he seemed to be making unconstructive edits at a high rate. If he shows he can constructively edit, the he neds an unblock.

Sorry. The use of a hangon tag does not necessarily preclude deletion. If you disagree with the deletion, you put your reason on the article talk. If it meets WP:CSD, it meets WP:CSD. What article do you have in mind. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 01:01, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't bother with some of the instructions mate, the instructions on this website are way too hard to follow. The people that write them forget that the people reading are not as knowledgable as them.

Did you not read the notices above on your talk page? It was deleted because in no way meets inclusion criteria for an encyclopedia. It makes no sense. In fact, some would say it appears to be mocking the person who "invented" it. This would be a form of disparagement, which is wholly unacceptable on Wikipedia.
As has been said before, Wikipedia is not for something someone happens to invent. What makes meet Wikipedia:Notability, the notability guideline for Wikipedia articles?
What about it being invented by this particular person makes it notable? What WP:reliable sources document/discuss it's use? What is its impact on the language? On society? I searched Google for reliable sources for this. I found none that refer to it in this usage.
Please read the guidelines and policies linked in the welcome above. Think about the subject and this being an encyclopedia. Then contact me again on my talk page if you want it restored. I will gladly do so. And we can then discuss its merits/demerits at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. That decision is totally up to you. I await your reply.

Thank you for your message. I have reviewed my decision on the Four-horned water snail article tagging it with the nonsense tag.

For the record

[edit]

You mentioned something about "attention seeking" on the RfA and also Malleus talk pages. All I want is the right to ask questions that I believe give us an idea of the candidate's personality. They are far more useful to me than "describe the difference between a ban and a block", etc. I will argue until I am blue in the face when people insist on making an issue out of it, but believe me, I'd be far happier if people would just relax and it never, ever came to this. Keepscases (talk) 21:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keepscases made a good point in this thread: "You'll also notice that my talk page is filled with messages from established users who appreciate my questions". Among people who are still left on Wikipedia, you made one of the 4 supporting comments on Keepscases' talk page (although it was mild: "Just trying to point out how futile the current drama feels to me.") Is that still your opinion after reading the other messages on Keep's talk page and in the link above, and if so, would you like to argue this position in the current conversation? (Watchlisting) - Dan Dank55 (send/receive) 22:46, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure I follow. What are you asking? I've said before that I don't see anything wrong with "joke" questions and supports at RFA. I think sometimes a little comic relief is badly needed. I don't see what the fuss is all about. However, I've disengaged from this drama after posting, "With all due respect to the pro removers, what's disruptive is getting aggravated with harmless humor and making such an issue of it, complete with removal of the comments of others. And the questions do give us a peak inside the candidate's mind and personality, so they are germane." Will have a look. Don't promise I won't run the other way. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 22:55, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, sorry I missed that you had already commented. Looking quickly, it looks like something over 90% of the people who have commented think something should be done about Keepscases questions (although there isn't any consensus on what should be done), and I think any time you've got those kind of numbers, we should at least talk. If we can assemble a handful of arguments from people who have strong feelings that Keepscases is fine and he should be able to ask any questions he wants to, then we have a good argument that we're not being slack at RFA and letting people be disruptive, we're listening respectfully to what some of the participants want and respecting minority opinions, even if we don't agree or understand. Or, if we get very high numbers for limiting Keepscases' questions, that would also demonstrate that we're actively trying to make RFA work better for voters and especially candidates. As long as we have a serious conversation and record the results, it seems like a win-win to me. - Dan Dank55 (send/receive) 23:35, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If we get very high numbers for limiting anyone's question, based solely on who they are, then it'll be a very sad day. It's just a question after all. --Malleus Fatuorum 23:53, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You may be interested in my post on this matter here. Thanks Mike R (talk) 18:20, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Since it's clearly a disparaging name then it is clearly a valid G10 - in fact it's almost a textbook G10 (quote from CSD#G10 - "it serves no purpose but to disparage or threaten its subject"). The subject does not have to be alive - G10 clearly states that BLP is a separate, alternative reason to use that criteria. Therefore, I have deleted it again. Black Kite 21:58, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Blackkite. As it is, "a disparaging name for Corrie granted by certain right wing pundits after her death," then that would sound like a textbook case of what we should not have here. Even though she is dead, there is no need to allow her enemies to continue to attack her here. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 03:43, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MPUH deleted WHY??

[edit]

It appears that MPUH has been deleted due to some misunderstanding. MPUH stands for Muljibhai Patel Urological Hospital, Nadiad, a not for profit Trust Hospital, in a small town in Nadiad, Gujarat (India). A few months back somebody else had registered MPUH and started advertising on the google. We had taken up the matter with the web administrator and had that MPUH removed. I suppose, whoever has deleted the MPUH that I had put in, has done so due to misunderstanding. Please restore what was deleted and oblige.

User:Barnstarr

[edit]

Hi, I noticed you 4im'd Barnstarr (talk · contribs). If you check their contribs, they have already impersonated an admin and committed a personal attack outside of the page you deleted. I think this is a sock of a blocked user, but I'm not sure who. I put them on AIV, but they are being slow to act. NJGW (talk) 01:48, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

After the return (see below), I put up CU request. Tiptoety asked for a letter classification, so I asked him if he thought that this is a good enough case for some fishing. He said he didn't think so.[3] What do you think? Press on or let it go? NJGW (talk) 00:01, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Like Tiptoety said, he's now indef blocked. I'm not much on trying to figure how who's the sock of whom. And eluding a CU is easier than you might think. If they have some sort of problem that leads to objectionable behavior, it is noticed by and by and then they are blocked just following the normal process of revert, warn, block. Certainly this was an obnoxious person for whom a block was inevitable. Some sort of attention seeker, I'd say. Also, for someone like this who is not quite up to the immediate blocking offered at AIV, one can always report at WP:AN/I. Cheers Dlohcierekim 13:14, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Deletion of 63rd Depot

[edit]

hey i just wanted to write to you that I believe the article 63rd Depot should stay up because it is soon going to be a part of pop culture. I have checked my sources, because I went to Frenchmans house for the interview (I'm sorry but in the interview, he asked his real name to be ananymous) I would just like for you to take the time and re think the article. I have explained why it is notable, there for i think it deserves to be an article. If you could possibly help me edit the article so it could be put on wikipedia, please tell me and I would love to accept your help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hooters2 (talkcontribs) 02:09, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have you got any reliable sources with verifiable information showing they now meet WP:BIO? Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, so notability must be established before an article is created. Also, you need to rethink how you want to write this. Declarative sentences, 3rd person, no flowery terms or fluff. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 02:18, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request for adminship... 3?

[edit]

Hi Dlohcierekim, it's now been over half a year since my previous request for the mop, and reviewing that RfA reveals that you were one of my opposers last time round. I was wondering if you'd like to comment on my current status in the Wikipedia community, and if you believe I would be ready to run for adminship again in future? Kind regards. Please respond wherever you feel it is most appropriate. Kind regards. —Cyclonenim (talk · contribs · email) 16:25, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your questions and thorough review. I've answered the questions, and I fully intent to wait a while before running again anyway.

Requesting 5 articles which were deleted

[edit]

I notice that you are listed on: Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles.

I am requesting 5 deleted articles to be userfied, pretty, pretty please :):

From: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2008 November 15

If I could please also get the creator's name and date it was created?

You can move all 5 pages to a userspace, lets say User:Ikip/Hannah Kane: Me and the Boys, with the history intact (I am interested in who created the article, and when).

I really appreciate it. You are probably wondering why I ask. Well, I have spent my weekend on a graph found here: User:Ikip/AfD on average day. I am interested in what type of user gets their page deleted, etc....November 15 is just a day pulled out of a hat by another user.

Thanks :) Ikip (talk) 17:05, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

talk page template

[edit]

Hi, I noticed you were using User:Dlohcierekim/uncy-deleted on new users talk pages. I must strongly suggested you remove the reference to Wikipedia:Complete bollocks as it is an essay and also a profanity. The link to Uncyclopedia should also be removed, reasons why can be found here.--Otterathome (talk) 23:54, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Don't follow. Dlohcierekim 00:33, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
My first acquaintance with Wikipedia:Complete bollocks was when I saw it used as a deletion rationale at WP:AFD. As I understand it, and in this usage, Bollocks is a Britishism akin to what was called bullshit when I was in high school-- conflated, extemporaneous nonsense designed to make the speaker/writer seem more knowledgeable or even authoritative on a subject of which their knowledge was limited or non existent.
Uncyclopedia is actually a humorous Wikipedia parody site whose articles are often humorous conflated nonsense. If a user appears to have mistaken Wikipedia for Uncyclopedia by creating something appropriate there but inappropriate for here, I find it best to direct them to a place where their creation will be welcomed and even appreciated as a positive contribution. I use User:Dlohcierekim/uncy-deleted to give them a deserved explanation as to why I deleted their article to so direct them to that appropriate place.
I see no benefit in doing what you suggest, and doing so would remove from use a tool I sometimes find useful. Your reasons make no sense to me. You must have dug awfully hard to find where I had used it. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 02:49, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Using Wikipedia:Complete bollocks maybe appropriate in some places, but using it on new users talk pages might be violating WP:BITE. New users create test/nonsense articles, rejecting them to another website isn't going to help them become a helpful editor.--Otterathome (talk) 17:58, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Which is why I always give them a welcometemplate. So you do agree that doing as you originally suggested is not necessarily beneficial, as there are times when using the template might be appropriate? And I think I have the judgment to use this template in a way so as to not bite. If you knew me better, you would not insult me this way-- calling me bitey. I realize that you are on some sort of campaign against Uncyclopeida, but I see no reason why someone cannot contribute to both. And some discussions I have had with users who contribute tripe have led me to believe that nonsense suitable for Uncyclopedia is what they wanted to contribute. It is not bitey to tell someone why their article was deleted and to point them the way to constructive editing. Contrarily, it is bitey to delete without explanation. And like I say, I generally lay on a welcome to anyone that has not had one except when they are putting up attack pages. Besides the which, these are not good faith efforts by someone who does not know how to write or cite or to meet inclusion criteria. The articles I use this template for are conflated nonsense. Stuff the creator knows to be untrue and deliberately tries to pass off as a legitimate article. In other words, stuff that could be treated as vandalism. Thanks for your input, though. Dlohcierekim 15:24, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The fact still stands, you are directing users to an outside site that is unrelated to Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation who could have otherwise learnt to become useful contributors. What you are doing could be interpreted as spamming but that would probably wouldn't be assuming good faith in this case. You may see yourself as helping these kinds of editors go where they may be better suited, but it's just an exit door for potential future contributors.--Otterathome (talk) 17:32, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I guess we will just have to agree to disagree, then. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 13:58, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

19:42, 8 February 2009 (hist) (diff) Talk:Public perception of George W. Bush ‎ (rm WP:BLP nonsense) - linking to WP:BLP seemed like a mention to me.--Otterathome (talk) 15:43, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I see. That was many reverts ago. You then characterized another editor's reverts as "vandalism" and as "disruption," which good be perceived as a non assumption of good faith. You also reverted CalendarWatcher with the sumary "read BLP," so it was hard to get the drift. I think your BLP concern may be a bit of a stretch, and would like to invite everyone concerned to hash it out at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Disagreement over removal of other's comments at Talk:Public perception of George W. Bush. Cheers, and happy editing. Dlohcierekim 15:59, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Left-wing fascism in India

[edit]

Dear Dlocierekim,

Please refer to the article "Left-wing fascism in India" authored by me. What I have put there is all well referenced and from genuine sources like "Amnesty Internationl". Please let me know what changes can be done to retain it. What can be done to change its image as "soapboxy" as you see it? I am new to wiki and your guidance is well appreciated. Michonuri (talk) 09:33, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Basically, it needs more neutral wording and should have reliable sources that provide verifiable information. No conclusions can be drawn that are not stated in the sourcing, no synthesis of information can occur or else it becomes original research. This appeared to be an assembly of disconnected facts into a single article. Hope that helps. Dlohcierekim 15:34, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou for the note on your deletion of this article.

Company names

[edit]

Hi again. I saw you posting notices to User:Advanced1Nutrition even though they were unresponsive... what are your thoughts on company names (especially ones that spam like that one) then (in relation to WP:U as well)? Personally I'd hesitate to block if they didn't spam but that one sure was blatant. -- Mentifisto 14:49, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I didn't think of it from that angle till after you'd blocked and messaged them. Which is just as well. I was going to watch and wait-- their intent seemed pretty clear with a copy/paste advertisement for the article text, so I figured they would give up after seeing their "contribution" deleted so quickly. I'd have probably wound up blocking them anyway, whether with a hard or soft block depending on how they responded. If they insisted on abusing Wikipedia for nefarious gain, then I'd have hard blocked 'em. If they made constructive edits, I'd have gone for the soft block with an explanation and and opportunity to to change to an appropriate user name. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 15:04, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Come to think of it, I don't think they had much time to respond. 3 minutes from welcome, to article review with warnings, to block-- went pretty fast. Dlohcierekim 15:07, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That's why it was a spam hard block though... because username policy forbids company names and, I suppose, especially those that spam... since we've seen their intentions for registering on WP technically (as WP:U says as well, although it could be contradictory in other parts) they should be blocked for spamming and having a corresponding company username. -- Mentifisto 15:25, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

[edit]

Thanks Mike. <rant>The nominee, like all of us, is here to create a great encyclopedia. There are a select few that possess the mix of attributes that make them fit to mop up the joint and take the trash out to the curb. This candidate is not one of them. An oppose does not make him any less valuable, or diminish his many hundreds of hours of hard work. My personal opinion is that the RfA process is not a forum to insult a persons dignity, or broadcast their faults. Unfortunately, the current process has evolved to a mixture of American Idol and a beauty contest, where insults are launched at characteristics that may not even relate to capability.</rant> --Preceding unsigned comment 15:23, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
