- Hello! No need to nominate that article for deletion; a clear-cut copyright violation can be deleted immediately, Thanks for the help. :) --PMDrive1061 (talk) 14:52, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- Strange. Nothing matched up in Google. Island Monkey talk the talk14:56, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Island Monkey/Sandbox
[edit]
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 User:Island Monkey/Sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandboxfor any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Ok, sorry if I was rude to you. I just don't understand why you felt the need to delete my revisions which I put lot of hard effort into! The completion date for almost any building built worldwide is a well known and easily accessible. Also once one has the completion dates for buildings you can then rank them based on when they were built. Most people are just too lazy to reference such information. My revision was essentially based on this fact and therefore if someone had doubts about the accuracy of my revisions it wouldn't be very difficult to verify whether or not they are indeed based on fact. Please just don't be so quick to press the delete button. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vejet (talk • contribs) 18:01, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
- That's OK. I reverted it on the fact it had no edit summary and the section blanking edit filter tagged the edit. Island Monkey talk the talk 18:04, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
What is this supposed to do?
[edit]File:Erm....ogg. I just listened to it and I don't get the point of it. Can you explain it to me? it sounds stupid. - Another n00b 15:39, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- It's a vandal repellent. So you be a good boy and I won't force you to play it, OK? Island Monkey talk the talk 19:48, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- I played it at 89% volume and I couldn't really hear anything apart from a loud screeching noise. - Another n00b (talk) 07:23, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I believe your point has been made with respect to Neptune's Trident talk page. An editor is allowed to blank their talk page and it is generally accepted as per WP:BLANKING that an editor can delete the content of their talk page as this very act is taken as a sign they are aware of its contents. So may I suggest that you let this editor keep their talk page in whichever state they wish. Regards Khukri 21:33, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit]I feel my monobook is very important now. So did you have fun copying it? --The Σ ★msg★ 07:03, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
- Blegh, it's not copyrighted... Island Monkey talk the talk 07:22, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
speedies
[edit]Just to let you know, a speedy deletion based off of WP:NOT is not generally going to be accepted by an administrator unless it's something really out there. For stuff like WP:NOTTRAVEL, a prod or an actual AfD is needed. Kevin (talk) 08:05, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hey, Island Monkey.....Frist of all, I dunno if I'm writing dis message in da correct place, but I'm SHORE you'll find it. Hey, I guess 'Free Speech' doesn't apply here - especially for someone like I, who isn't a Wikipedia expert. Anyhoo, I was jokin' around, and it appears dat you cannot take a bit o' ribbing. Now, I don't mean anyfin' maricious - I was jes' funnin' wif you. And (at da risk of bein' barred from WP) I IMAGINE dat if I mess wif you anymore, I'll get SDOME kinda sanctions frem you, so let's jes' leave dis conbersation wif a simple apology fer offendin' yer sensibilities. And secondly, what happened izzat I jes' HAPPENED to notice a spelling error (and I guess dat I KNOW who made dat error now!), so all I WEALLY want is to be immortalized on WP, by havin' my contribution to an article becomin' permanent. The joking comments dat I writed certainry meant NO harm. I'm NOT da type of person who would make fun of another - take my werd fer it, prease.
Hope my apology/expranation/contrition is satisfactory to you. I'm sincere about my original comments bein' a joke. Hope you are aware of dat now, Island. Third, I actually am now interested in contributing in a positive manner to WP, after navigatin' around a bit, and seein' how serious, passionate dat people are about WP. You actually may have inadwertently created a new, proactive contributer/editor/citizen of da WP community.
Take care, and have a good remainder of dis holiday weekend. And....LIGHTEN UP, FRANCIS! Just kidding (sort of). My real name's Mikey. I'm in Souf Beach. Where YOU is? What yer name is? Just curious. Heat or Mavericks? And if you don't mind, wouldja please write me back, lemme know dat you seed dis message, if I writed it in da right place, if we're cool, etc. I hope so, on da last count- NOT olny cos I'm afeared o' gittin' barred from WP, but cos I seriously hope I dint really make you really feal bad. No harm meant.
Laterz! Imma go look fer somethin' else to edit; I'd really LOVE to create a whole new entry! Oh, would you mind givin' me a tip or two, so I can get started on creatin' an article? Frank you! Maybe something really good DID come from you gettin' 'ffended! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nittmo (talk • contribs) 11:12, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Why do you un-do my edits?
[edit]Are you the the owner of wikipedia?
- Because they're false! Read this. Island Monkey talk the talk 16:53, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
I believe find a grave is not valid.
- So do other editors I see.
- How is that belief vandalism?

- What the heck are you on about? Please leave the page name where you got that from. Island Monkey talk the talk 16:57, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
This is the page name I got it from, the one you are asking me to leave. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Files_for_deletion/2011_May_29#File:SamDeCavalcante.jpg --Free or unfree (talk) 17:01, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

help
[edit]Hey man, I noticed we both were takin care of the vandalism on the Laguna page by the IP. I'm new to twinkle and I was wondering how to remove multiple edits like you did. That would help me greatly with vandals lol. Thanks. KING OF WIKIPEDIA -GRIM LITTLEZ (talk) 06:36, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
- Find the best clean revision, and then click on the button on the top of the best diff that says "[Restore this revision]". That should do it. Island Monkey talk the talk 07:00, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
Oh ok that is what I've been doing. Alright thanks. KING OF WIKIPEDIA - GRIM LITTLEZ (talk) 07:02, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
Articles for creation/Borgore
[edit]Hello Island Monkey, just wondering why you declined the Borgore submission? Rather coincidentally I was getting ready to write the article about him myself; within the dubstep scene Borgore is one of the biggest names. The article referenced four reliable sources, easily passing WP:GNG. While not the best written article we have on here I think your concern that the article would fail A7 is misplaced. Best, doomgaze (talk) 11:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
- I'll try and unSALT it. Island Monkey talk the talk 16:21, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
- Wait, it's not SALTed. Sorry, that was the reason why I declined it. I was going to accept it. Stupid AFC helper script...Island Monkey talk the talk 16:27, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
Reverting "vandalism" on Social Networking Websites Blocker
[edit]When reverting a page blanking, please take the extra time to look through the page history. An article that is blanked by its creator and only contributor of substantive content is widely understood to be an author request for deletion, and it can be speedily deleted per WP:CSD#G7. —KuyaBriBriTalk 21:24, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
