Username
[edit]I see that your username is named after the Pokemon Slowking. Do u play Pokémon? If you do, is Slowking your favorite Pokémon_?
As the creating user of this article has contested the PROD (and uploaded all the photos again that were just deleted) I was wondering if you were going to nominate it for deletion? I would support deletion if you did. Just bear in mind however that my experience of this user is that they have a "my way or no way" approach to article creation. It took about four attempts just to get them to leave the cleanup tags in place. -- roleplayer 17:52, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Moreno Valley City Seal.gif)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Moreno Valley City Seal.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:17, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Merda
[edit]"Merda" is a word of portuguese profanity. It's frustrating to find a protected error on wikipedia. You should redirect the article to the "portuguese list" (which exists) and maybe protect it then. Maziotis (talk) 22:21, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, thanks for catching that. Someone created the article as vandalism, so I figured I'd just redirect and protect to deter further vandalism. But you're right; it doesn't need to be protected forever. We didn't have expiration dates for protection back then, or else I would have set one. Fixed and unprotected, so feel free to edit it further if you want. If you run into any other stale protected pages, just let me know. —Slowking Man (talk) 00:29, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- you're welcome. cheers. Maziotis (talk) 01:22, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Suspension of admin privileges due to inactivity
[edit]Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative privileges of users who have been inactive for one year, meaning administrators who have made neither any edits nor any logged actions in over one year. As a result of this discussion, your administrative privileges have been removed pending your return. If you wish to have these privileges reinstated, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Notice of change
[edit]Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that you will not longer be able to request restoration of the tools because of your prior inactivity. You have until December 30, 2012 to request restoration or else the policy will prevent you from doing so in the future; you would need to seek a new WP:RFA. Until December 30, you can file a request at WP:BN for review by the crats. Thank you. MBisanz talk 04:22, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The article Echelon (card game) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No evidence of notability offered; none found. The one source cited is to the site of the subject's publisher.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Maproom (talk) 16:45, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of VaporWare (company)
[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 VaporWare (company) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. startTerminal {haha wow talk page | waste_of_space#4023 on discord} 07:12, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
