I removed the speedy delete tag from this user page because I didn't think it was applicable. I don't think user pages can ever be a CSD, and furthermore the criteria for speedy deletion state that "Reasons derived from Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Wikipedia is not: "a dictionary", "an indiscriminate collection of information", "a crystal ball", etc." are not candidates. This issue should be discussed with the user, and if there is no resolution you could nominate it at Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion. WP:UP may prove a helpful resource.

- I've listed it at MFD. Gakusha 19:50, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Really, you should have just asked the user to remove it first. From the User page guidelines: "Be very careful not to scare a newbie away from Wikipedia, and try to assume good faith that they are merely trying to share information about themselves. Try to resolve the issue on the user's talk page first." Darksun 19:53, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- It was already removed from the main article space. Gakusha 19:53, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

help me
[edit]{{helpme}} How long will I have to use this captcha on new external links? Gakusha 20:08, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Pardon? If you could please expand what you mean, I will be happy to help. Dreamy \*/!$! 21:20, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Untill four days from when you created you account. Then you will also be able to create and move pages.--Werdan7T @ 21:58, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
THANK YOU
[edit]Thanks for reverting the Eschatology page to my previous edits. 'Mayans Rule'? Gimmee a break! Nobody rules down here!--MurderWatcher1 20:42, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Cubs
[edit]Thanks for your edits to the Chicago Cubs page. I kept some of your new content, but frankly it was not well written and way too long. If you want to add more to the '03 season, please add it to 2003 Chicago Cubs season which is a better place for "long stories" because this page is basically a recap. Wjmummert 00:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- All I did was revert the POV edits the previous editor had added. Gakusha 06:20, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Mental as Anything: Comment on Live it Up
[edit]I resent that you accuse me of vandalism when I am making valid comment on the nature and stucture of this song, which goes on and on and on. You try having to listen to this song three times a day.
I was not experimenting either. Nor was I being obsene or rude. You do not have to agree with me, but you don't have to be so self-righteous. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.180.41 (talk) 04:22, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Adding continued repetitive text that is your personal commentary is not permitted in wikipedia articles. Gakusha 04:24, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
I was demonstrating the repetitive nature of the song. It was a sample of a lyric and not simply repeating the same words over and over and over and over (is that allowed.. over and over??)and supports the contribution. But you call it vandalism. So much for free expression. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.180.41 (talk) 04:50, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Decling unblock requests
[edit]While I appreciate your interest in helping Wikipedia, please leave responding to unblock requests up to administrators. -- John Reaves 04:35, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Is there any reasoning behind that? I can see how approving unblock requests should be admin-only, but for declining requests I don't see the problem. Gakusha 04:36, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Admins may know more than you (e.g. deleted contribs or access to unblock-en-l) and declining it means there is no chance for an admin to give a user a second chance or act on sockpuppetry or other special cases that may be missed by a new user/ non-admin. -- John Reaves 04:46, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
My Talk Page
[edit]Am I not allowed to remove things from my own talk page? 76.20.248.125 04:55, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- It is discouraged to remove new user warning templates from IP talk pages. Gakusha 04:59, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry not trying to cause trouble 76.20.248.125 05:02, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
Probably safer to report something like this than keep reverting. I would consider the tag removal vandalism, but others might disagree with us, and you don't need to be having that debate. Thanks for stemming the flow of vandalism either way! -- But|seriously|folks 05:46, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
I wasn't
[edit]You said I was removing things. I wasn't. --TimySmidge 21:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- This isn't removing things? Gakusha 21:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Fiserv article
[edit]Why are you saying the article is not about their competition? It is an article about a company called Fiserv, that, like any other company has market competitors. What is the problem?
- The problem is that you are including too much about the other companies. It reads like an entire article for it. If you wanted to include a one or two sentence bit on how they have competition, that's fine. But please don't tell the life story of their competitors. Gakusha 22:03, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Oh Jeez. I just pasted whatever those companies had to say about themselves. OK, I am going to make it real short then.
air heaters
[edit]I would like to add to your article about air heaters. I believe that I wrote my article in my own words. What is wrong with it beyond that? Could you please inform me on what I could do to help? Mlrusch 20:31, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
