You're not an admin, you're just a busy body too fast on the trigger for a page that doesn't meet any of the speedy deletion criteria. You didn't even have the common courtesy to drop the author of the page a message before you did anything.

The Get Up Kids edit

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I didn't make the edit you are refering to. I think the confusion was caused by a comment I made on the discussion page for TGUK. The guy who made the edit did not sign his comment, which I responded to, and it looks like it's all one statement. I think you've done great work on the page, as well as Blackpool Lights. I'm actually from Kansas City and I think it's great that these pages are getting some attention. Keep up the good work.Natt the Hatt (talk) 15:43, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem on the mix up, it happens. Thanks for your kind words. I've expanded the story section for Broken Bride. If you get a chance, take a look and let me know what you think. Hopefully we can work together on some other projects.Natt the Hatt (talk) 02:07, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Broken Bride

Sorry, I didn't realalize that you had trimed a previous story section here. I reverted my edit, but I'm wondering if there is a more appropriate place to put a more in-detail storyline.Natt the Hatt (talk) 02:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunatly, Ludo has never given definite answers.Natt the Hatt (talk) 05:51, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Team Fremont Live

A tag has been placed on Team Fremont Live requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Corvus cornixtalk 21:06, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My first concern is that we don't even have an article on Team Fremont, so a podcast about them pretty much fails notability right there. Then there are so many self-published sources, and nothing that seems to meet WP:RS. Plus it's really hard to prove notability of a podcast, they're generally a dime a dozen. Corvus cornixtalk 21:19, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
What I meant by my last comment is that the vast majority of podcasts are not notable, even if the subject is. I'm still not seeing reliable sources. Corvus cornixtalk 21:36, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be honest that I never heard of those sites before, but is there some way to verify that they're notable? Do notable sites use them as references? Corvus cornixtalk 21:43, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I know that Gawker isn't a reliable site. Corvus cornixtalk 21:55, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I've given my reasoning. We'll let an admin decide if the article should stay or not. Corvus cornixtalk 22:04, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Read the criteria for Template:db-web. Corvus cornixtalk 23:10, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Team Fremont Live

An article that you have been involved in editing, Team Fremont Live, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Team Fremont Live. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?

Since an editor with no other edits decided to remove the speedy deletion tag, I decided to take another look at this article and the associated references. Even if the sites you claim are reliable sources, the links to those sites are themselves are little more than "boy, that's a cool podcast" sorts of things, and links to videos. No discussion about the site. Corvus cornixtalk 18:20, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPA, WP:CIVIL and WP:AGF. I never heard of this podcast until yesterday. Provide reliable sources, and this will all be fine. Corvus cornixtalk 22:12, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where did I ever say "I never heard of it"? How many times do I have to ask for reliable sources? Take this to the AfD page, I'm through discussing this with you, since you are not interested in discussing this civilly. Corvus cornixtalk 22:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

I appreciate your comments. Corvus cornixtalk 20:39, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. I removed the speedy tag from Mariusz Wlazly. Being on a national team is a claim of notability. If you disagree, then go ahead and nominate it for AfD. Corvus cornixtalk 23:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, it needs better sourcing. I had passed by the article and thought about it, but thought that the national team membership was enough to let it pass. Putting an unsourced tag on the article wouldn't hurt, though. Corvus cornixtalk 23:26, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Signature

It doesn't sound stupid at all. You could view the wiki markup article for information on wiki formatging and other things.

  1. First, go to your preferences, and where it says "signature", that is where you can insert your signature. Make sure the box is checked.
  2. Another way, you could look at my sig. ('''''[[User:Willisis2|<span style="color: #F88017;">Ŵïllî§ï$2</span>]]''''' (<sup>'''''[[User talk:Willisis2|<font color="green">Talk!</font>]]'''''</sup>/<sub>'''''[[Special:Contributions/Willisis2|<font color="maroon"><b>Cont.</b></font>]]'''''</sub>)), and other signatures four fonts, styles, and colors.

AfD nomination of Shorty (song)

I have nominated Shorty (song), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shorty (song). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? AniMate 22:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since the song never charted, and was self-released, it might be better to make it a one-paragraph section of the band's article. Corvus cornixtalk 23:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information I reverted my tagging. To move a page to a new name you can use the move tab at the top of the page, this automatically creates a redirect from the original location. Regards, Guest9999 (talk) 20:29, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wondered by curiosity why the 1981 number-one hits from Cashbox magazine have to be deleted? Is there some incorrect data than I need to re-check? I think it could be a interesting idea to post a list of #1 hits from Cashbox magazine on Wikipedia to compare them with the ones from Billboard magazine? --Sd-100 (talk) 21:59, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wahab Iyanda Folawiyo

I've declined your {{db-bio}} request on Wahab Iyanda Folawiyo. There is no earthly way this was a candidate for speedy deletion, as at the time of your nomination it not only contained multiple assertions of notability, but had two legitimate references to back the assertions up. If you haven't already, please make sure you familiarise yourself with the speedy deletion criteria; this kind of nomination is very disruptive, as it not only wastes the time of the admins who have to deal with it, but potentially drives the editor off the project. CSD should only be used in a very limited circumstances, and not because you don't like an article; if you feel an article like this is inappropriate, use AFD instead.

In this case, your tagging was particularly inappropriate, as you nominated it for deletion eight minutes after the article was created, when the author was likely to still be working on it; except in the case of blatant vandalism or attack pages, please give the editors a chance!iridescent 22:53, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Those two "Dubious looking websites" (to quote your post on my talk page) are one of Nigeria's leading newspapers and a major news website. Please stop being disruptive.iridescent 22:57, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Stop wasting my time with this. From his bio before he died:
  • "He is the Grand Patron of Nigerian Muslim Council; Chairman, Executive Council of the Lagos Central Mosque; Honorary Fellow, Chartered Institute of Transport; Fellow, Commonwealth Journalists Association; Chairman, Maize Association of Nigeria, and Patron, Institute of Freight Forwarders of Nigeria. He was also honoured with the key to DADE County, Florida, in the United States of America. He is the proud recipient of the national honour of Order of Federal Republic, OFR, conferred on him in 1982, as well as, Commander of the Order of the Niger, CON, on November 16, 2000.
    The University of Lagos also conferred on him - the Millennium Award of Doctor of Science. He was appointed CHANCELLOR, Lagos State University on 17th April, 1999. He is the Patron of the Nigerian-British Chamber of Commerce."
I got that within 10 seconds on Google. Regardless of that, there is no way you should ever be CSDing articles eight minutes after creation. Did you actually read those newspaper articles referenced?iridescent 23:09, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PMPRB

I took your comments to heart, friend. But, I think there's still need for a good article on the PMPRB. Could you make some substantive edits? You seem to be of sound mind and reasoning, so I think we'd all benefit from your insights. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AlphaFactor (talkcontribs) 23:03, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wahab Iyanda Folawiyo afd closing

Hi, this page might help you out if you are wondering how to close the discussion WP:NADC. Cheers, Nk.sheridan   Talk 19:09, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit

Hi there Rwiggum!

Thanks for taking the time to edit my new article (Jefferson (surname))! Although I am sure you had good intentions, the article is dealing exclusively with people that have the surname Jefferson.

Get Up Kids

It's widely known that THE BAND is a kansas city band, but it is also known that those members i modified grew up and went to school in Olathe, KS which is a Kansas City, MO suburb. I went to olathe south and know people who were classmates with them and it is widely known around town that they are from olathe kansas. I will be undoing your revisions shortly unless you have further issue with that. You can even look up the band members on social networking websites and they list Olathe, KS as hometown. One example would be Jim Suptic on Friendster.com, (no registration required to see his profile) where he lists Olathe, KS as his hometown. Ryan2845 (talk) 19:11, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the link to Jim Suptics profile, listing Olathe, KS as hometown profiles.friendster.com/5457102 Ryan2845 (talk) 19:15, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm nearly 100% sure that the Popes and Suptic grew up and went to high school in Olathe, there are numerous articles on the internet verifying that. Heck, i can go to my highschool and grab a year book if need be :)

Another example is you can search on Classmates.com under Olathe South and see that Rob, Ryan and James are all listed as Alums http://www.classmates.com/directory/school/Olathe%20South%20High%20School_5.jsp?org=15406 Ryan2845 (talk) 19:22, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll do some more research and get back to you. Its highly possible that Suptic could have lived in Liberty as a young child and moved to Olathe for his highschool years? His own friendster page lists Olathe as hometown? Who knows, I'll look into it, but i'm positive they all 3 AT LEAST went to Olathe South for highschool, that much I am 100% sure of. Ryan2845 (talk) 19:40, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I just found this article from Pitch magazine (the authority on all things music related in the Kansas City area).
Quote from the article: "The group got together in 1995, when Pope and guitarist and vocalist Jim Suptic were seniors at Olathe :::South High School."
http://www.pitch.com/2005-06-30/music/all-good-things/
Ryan2845 (talk) 19:42, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, Pryor and James are DEFINITELY from KC, MO. I never edited their pages, sorry i got that mixed up in the comment above.
Ryan, Rob, and Jim are all from Olathe, KS Ryan2845 (talk) 19:44, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Your resolution sounds fine to me. I'll make the changes. Just glad I could contribute something, big get up kids fan! Ryan2845 (talk) 19:53, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Signature reminder

Hi there.

Island Savings

Why did you change my Speedy Delete tag from 'db-nonsense' to 'db-bio'? Nick RienThompson doesn't exist. Google has never heard of him and the claims made in the article are nonsense and impossible. ("From the age of 9 he studied rock music and guitar technique under his heros such as Angus Young, Jimmy Page and the late Jimi Hendrix.") Kind regards,  Channel ®   00:11, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't make sense. Read it carefully. "World renowned rock guitarist and soccer star"? "plays for Led Zeppelin"? Total nonsense. Anyway, I'm sure it'll soon be gone.  Channel ®   00:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, I removed your Speedy Deletion tag on Guy Bonnet. The article is in pretty poor shape but the guy is definitely notable. Even I've heard of him and I hate French chansons. See Google. Cheers,  Channel ®   00:32, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Guitar Praise isn't released yet... few information available

Hello. I wrote an article about Guitar Praise. I'm not really that excited about the game coming, but I figure that it could use a Wikipedia article. There has been no screenshots released, and also, the beta testing was limited to California residents. There is little known about this game, which will release in about 6 weeks, so I put the {{future game}} tag on it.

I am unable to write more than a stub about an unreleased, privately beta tested video game. If there is anything that I can do to improve the article, please let me know. Thank you. LetsGo67 (talk) 03:34, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I wrote an article about Guitar Praise. I don't mind whether or not it gets deleted for now. Later, there will be more sources, screenshots will be released. LetsGo67 (talk) 15:27, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Overconcerned parents

I believe that one big thing will make this game a success: overconcerned parents. Please see Talk:Guitar Praise for more info. Also, according to Tom Bean, Digital Praise serves 100 000 customers. That's fairly notable.


Buried and ressurected?

Will the article just be 'buried and ressurected', then? —Preceding unsigned comment added by LetsGo67 (talkcontribs) 03:59, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sirnick1990

I saw your discussion with Sirnick1990 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) at Talk:Nicholas R. Beek. In my view, Nicholas R.

I corrected the message. Sorry for confusing you! I probably better go to bed. Best, --Shirahadasha (talk) 06:19, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, buddy!

Marnie Weber

You recently nominated the article for Marnie Weber for deletion. I assure you that in the art world, especially, though hardly limited to, here in Los Angeles, that she is an artist of note. I have cited nearly all the information that has been added. I will continue to improve the article, adding citations from more and more sources, as there are plenty from which to draw - much has been published about her and her work. In the meantime, I request that you reconsider the tag for her article. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamstamp (talkcontribs) 19:43, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conduct

From reading this page I can see I am not the only person to be confused and frustrated by your requests for deletion. As has been stated here several times it would be much more helpful and polite to request for additional information etc than jumping to the delete button. If you actually help edit a page rather than just request it's deletion in future it would be appreciated. I will copy such conduct myself when this occurs.--Cabinfeveraaron (talk) 11:56, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flat_Daddy - speedy deletion ?

Hi Rwiggum, I challenged the speedy deletion you requested under the ground of "unverified concept" here Talk:Flat_Daddy cheers --Ofol (t) 21:51, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

QSE.

Hi, I know the page has been doing a little better, and my personal feelings aside, may I ask why you feel the link to the People magazine article is irrelevant? I have added that link to to show that Sarah Silverman did the song, and to possibly give some background. I respect your opinion, and since you have deleted it twice, I will leave it out, I was just wondering how, seeing as they did a spoof, the original shouldn't have a reference? Just a quandary. --HELLØ ŦHERE 16:23, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I do agree that it doesn't fit the notability and that a lot of the sources are bogus. I just felt that even though it does not reference the article, it references the text contained in the article (i.e.- the original Silverman song), which I believed would also need a source. But if you feel it shouldn't be there, I can respect that and I shall drop the subject. (I also am a Kevin Smith fan.) And, as I said before, I do agree the article isn't notable. --HELLØ ŦHERE 16:33, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3

Just a friendly note on Naruto Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3. I declined your speedy deletion request, as there was plenty of context and content to the article, even when you tagged it. (Yes, it could use some copyediting, but that's not a deletion issue). --Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:06, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I award you one for finding Trekphiler's page for people who always think that "new message" bar is real. Aren't you glad you checked your mail?

Lady with the Dog

Why did you move the article without any discussion? The original title is just as correct as yours and more widely used (all the articles that link to that use it, and they were written before I wrote the article). And the article refers to it by the original title so it's inconsistent. Gr8white (talk) 06:14, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bug Sessions Volume One

Just a friendly note about the prod removal on Bug Sessions Volume One. WP:MUSIC clearly says albums by a notable band may be notable, not are notable. Long precedent at AfD shows that notability for albums is not automatic just because an artist is notable.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 17:12, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! I've just had a few links removed from a few stand-up comedian sites, I believe you took mine down from Maria Bamford's page. I was just wondering why it's not ok to post those links, because I would have figured that people interested in Maria and her comedy would enjoy watching some of the clips on RooftopComedy. I'm not an expert on Wikipedia, so perhaps you could help me to understand what I did wrong? I'm just trying to connect fans with good content, and I'm confused why it's not allowed! Any info you could give me would be much appreciated. --Blenz (talk) 17:38, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Update - Thanks for the reply, Rwiggum. I guess I'd like to argue my point a bit more. I checked out your links to the guidelines for editing, thanks for those. Over at RooftopComedy we work with up and coming comedians, get their sign-off to air their clips, and then post them online so they can use them to self-promote. In addition, we like to take it a step further to act as online agents and promoters for these artists to help get their work out to the masses. I don't see linking to a profile and group of clips on our site as spam so much as an informational link that provides interested fans with another outlet to view work by the people referenced in the article. As for our site not being verifiable, I'm unclear what that means. All our comics write their own material and grant us permission to post - we check that the performance is the correct person before adding it to a performer's profile. And I'm just not sure why links to these artists performances on Comedy Central are allowed but ours aren't. I know you're not the only one taking my links down, so I suppose I just want to get a feel for why we're seen as spam by you and others! Thanks again for all the help, I truly appreciate any light you can shed! --Blenz (talk) 18:00, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Breakemall.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Breakemall.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? MER-C 11:47, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]


October 2008

Hello. I noticed today that you were doing newpages patrolling but are not marking some of the pages you visit as patrolled. Though this is not mandatory in any way, and should not be done for all newpages, where appropriate it keeps your fellow patrollers from wasting time reviewing the same page multiple times. In any event, keep up the good work! Thanks. —Largo Plazo (talk) 03:17, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing.

Re [1]: "The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged should be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation." - WP:BURDEN.

Also, the song "Dork Thinks He's Gonna Drown" you put back is not mentioned at the messageboard post (which btw is not a reliable source) at [2]. -- Jeandré, 2008-10-18t11:28z

List of Ranks in Call of Duty 4

My last attempt at this article was quickly deleted by you, and for good reason. I've made second attempt at the article (List of Ranks in Call of Duty 4) and I was hoping you could tell me if it meets the standards for a wikipedia article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ishvara7 (talkcontribs) 23:15, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You're not an admin, you're just a busy body too fast on the trigger for a page that doesn't meet any of the speedy deletion criteria. You didn't even have the common courtesy to drop the author of the page a message before you did anything. Misterandersen (talk) 03:11, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
