Hi. Ron Ritzman questioned the way you challenged the closure of the Chris Beatty AfD. It's OK to challenge an AfD close, though WP:DRV explains the normal process. We bring the matter to the attention of the person closing the AfD, and if we get no satisfaction from that, we take the matter to DRV. That a close was not done by an admin doesn't matter - the first step is approaching the person closing to ask them to take another look. And if the close was done by a non-admin and you are not sure if that was done by due process, then ask for a second opinion rather than reverting the close. You were OK to challenge the close, and it's OK not to know the usual way we do things. Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy, so the intent is always what matters rather than the process - but it is useful knowing the way things normally are done so as to avoid drama!

I deleted it, and, of course, your conversion of it to a scroll down. The user has spammed a number of talk pages and it appears to be a link to gibberish on another talk page created (the gibberish) by him/her. --KP Botany (talk) 20:43, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- I noticed, hes contiuing now too... possibly an WP:AIV would be in order? — raeky (talk | edits) 20:45, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, give him a few minutes. I don't know, use your judgment on AIV. I'll support whatever you do. --KP Botany (talk) 20:47, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Best we wait to see if he stops. ;-) — raeky (talk | edits) 20:47, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Okay, AIV. --KP Botany (talk) 20:50, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Agree — raeky (talk | edits) 20:50, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- An administrator did revert his entire contribution to the logic talk page, so maybe he'll get the picture. --KP Botany (talk) 20:57, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I put a CLEAR warning (i think) on his talk page about his questions on why we're deleting it. If he continues to be a disruption I can see a "vandal only account" AIV being appropriate. Right now I think we can WP:ASSUME... I hope. — raeky (talk | edits) 21:00, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- I posted at AN/I. Now it's just a child playing games, whereas before we may have assumed it was an unclear communicator. --KP Botany (talk) 21:13, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
