Massachusetts Fascist Movement
Any reason on why you are deleting my page? It a real organization that is helping Massachusetts.
In my opinion, I feel that the organisation is not notable enough, especially seeing as it was only formed a week ago. Quiggers1P (talk) 20:38, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
Yes but that just your opinion, maybe me and other members dont feel that way. Dackkorto (talk) 20:40, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
The fact that an administrator deleted it the first time means that he/she also believes it is not notable enough. Quiggers1P (talk) 20:41, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
And what would make you "Admins" think its "notable"? Dackkorto (talk) 20:42, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
- As I explained on my talkpage, notability is evidenced by significance coverage in major media. Please see WP:NOTE. Wikipedia is not a means of creating notability, it documents pre-existing notability. Acroterion (talk) 20:44, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
Well thank you for your time Dackkorto (talk) 20:49, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
Reebok Stadium
Hey Quiggers. I was just going on the stadium capacity according to the official FA document. I know that a number of seats aren't available in football games due to the close proximity between home and opposing fans. However, the seats are used for other events like Rugby League and concerts. Therefore, although the Reebok holds 28,723 the limit for Bolton Wanderers games is less. Quentin X (talk) 21:55, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
Speedy on Bockmann expedition
You have put a WP:CSD A1 on this article in the first minute after creation. The consensus is to wait at least 10 minutes to give the creator a chance to improve the context, refer to the footnote in the guidelines. Thanks Fæ (talk) 13:54, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Request for removing tag at Formanites
Sir, thanks for contacting me, and firstly I tell you that Formanites is the article about alumni of Forman Christian College and this is the list. If you need any information I can give but remove the tag please and I'll give references if you need for that, thanks. Reply at my talk page.--—AssassiN's Creed (talk) 14:43, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
But this can be an separate article understand it, because Formanites is also a name of alumni as well as students studying at school and this should be an separate article. I have an example of this as Ravians are alumni of [[Government College University, Lahore. Please undo that article to its original shape and do not merge it into school article. Please.--—AssassiN's Creed (talk) 14:53, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Ok Sir, What can I do? Do as you wish. Thanks for help and guide.--—AssassiN's Creed (talk) 14:57, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Userboxes
This help request has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please replace the code {{help me-helped}} on this page with {{help me}}, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page. |
Hi I want to start using userboxes to personalise my userpage, can someone help explain to me how to put them on? Thanks Quiggers1P (talk) 15:32, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- See WP:Userboxes, where it's all explained. JohnCD (talk) 15:41, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot. Quiggers1P (talk) 15:42, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- As a general rule, if you want to find out about some Wikipedia feature, say (imaginary) Oogles, the first thing to try is typing "WP:Oogle" or "Help:Oogle" into the search box. Most of the time, that will at least get you started. JohnCD (talk) 15:50, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will use that rule in future. Quiggers1P (talk) 15:51, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Vennila
Hello Quiggers1P. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Vennila, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Contains sufficient content to be a stub. Thank you. Salvio Let's talk about it! 16:44, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Altered speedy deletion rationale: Liam bachini
Hello Quiggers1P. I am just letting you know that I deleted Liam bachini, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided, which doesn't fit the page in question. Thank you. Salvio Let's talk about it! 15:20, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Challenge to CSD on Catholicos Baselios Eldho
I wanted to let you know that I have challenged your WP:CSD A7 on Catholicos Baselios Eldho. In my opinion, being "Maphrian of the Orthodox Church of the East" is a claim of importance sufficient to satisfy criteria A7. Monty845 15:51, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
CSD rationale
Did you notice that the CSD notice you added to El Porton School, Barranquitas, says "Note that schools are not eligible under this criterion."--SPhilbrickT 15:59, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
- Okay then, I'll just take it to AfD. Quiggers1P (talk) 16:04, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
- I agree. Oddly, the community has generally decided that elementary schools are not notable, absent fairly good strong referencing, but the exception to A7 doesn't note that. I think it may be something the CSD team should take up (e.g modify the exception to cover secondary schools, colleges and universities, but allow elementary schools to be CSD'd.) Sorry, it is more work to deal with it at AfD, but I think that's the right course until and unless CSD A7 is modified.--SPhilbrickT 16:14, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
- I think that is an excellent idea, I think that we should put that forward. However, I am only just getting used to wikipedia but as an administrator, I'm sure you would know where to go about this. I just hope the rest of the community agrees with us! Quiggers1P (talk) 16:18, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

CSD rationale
This may be a close call, but IMO, an LAT bureau chief is a credible assertion of importance. My not be notable, but that's for AfD--SPhilbrickT 16:11, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
I've declined your A7 on this as it isn't a company or group. It's a building/museum owned by the National Trust. If you feel strongly about it, I'd advise PROD. Some NT properties are notable, some aren't, but they're nor speedy candidates. Peridon (talk) 16:18, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Accessibility Camp
Just to let you know, this was speedied twice already yesterday. I suspect salting is in order. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 16:35, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
UNAH Library
Hello, I want to know why you wan't to delete UNAH Library article, I see many similar articles, like Oviatt Library, UCD Library and a categoray of articles like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Academic_libraries If you wan't to delete this articles you ough to delete the articles in category Academic libraries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charvaka Muni (talk • contribs) 18:19, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
- I requested deletion because I felt the library was not notable enough to be on wikipedia. Quiggers1P (talk) 18:43, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
College ACB
I cant see why my edit was reversed, nothing in the references cited support the statement "The new owners decided that they would remove most of the core features and open the site to Google. They renamed the site Blipdar. Ever since their changes traffic to the site has dramatically dropped and usage has decreased." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.60.142.92 (talk) 20:21, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
I thought that the Boston news article supported the statement regarding the usage. Quiggers1P (talk) 20:26, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
callebaut
Did you even read my comments for the edit or the article itself? The page is about a huge Belgian chocolate company and someone added a whole paragraph of detailed information about some canadian guy who had a little chocolate shop that was also called Callebaut in canada but which has no relationship to the company at all. The article is about a Belgian company. The canadian chocolate shop has no relation to the Belgian company. The information does not belong in the article.--83.128.115.179 (talk) 20:44, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
In the article history, edits were made previous reverting another I.P. address' edit of deleting the section, so I promptly followed suit. Quiggers1P (talk) 20:46, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- So you just revert based on the username instead of the merits of the edit? Please remove that vandalism warning from my talk page. --83.128.115.179 (talk) 20:51, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- No, there was more than one user against your edits, and I agreed with their views. Quiggers1P (talk) 20:52, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- How does it make my edits vandalism? Please explain that.--83.128.115.179 (talk) 21:06, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- Because you are going against several editors reverts and keep persistently blanking a section. Quiggers1P (talk) 21:10, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- Going against reverts is not vandalism at all if it's well-intentioned and doesn't violate 3RR. I've given arguments against those of the other user aswell, but you didn't go into them and just reverted without a reason. --83.128.115.179 (talk) 21:12, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- so?--83.128.115.179 (talk) 17:31, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
- It may not be vandalism by definition, but I found the edit unconstructive. Quiggers1P (talk) 18:08, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

Your request for rollback
Hi Quiggers1P. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY (TALK) 00:43, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Josef Teichmann
Hello Quiggers1P. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Josef Teichmann, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.

I've changed your tag from db-spam to db-inc. The article doesn't read like a pure advert. (Intentions are not the question - it's the wording that counts...) Peridon (talk) 18:02, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
- Fair enough, either way it isn't really acceptable to be on wikipedia. Quiggers1P talk - contribs 18:07, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
- True. Salvio's done the deed now. The CSD categories are fairly limited (and a little peculiar in places - A7 is all to do with people based things except that it also covers web content). Nonsense really means gibberish - more incoherent than Foul Ole Ron usually is. And so on. Peridon (talk) 19:28, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
