Different name on discussion page

help-me|Please look at Respect (song) and then click on "Discussion". Note that the name of the discussion page is not the same as the name on the article. Is this something that needs to be fixed?

Hi, Bensin! I've moved the page back to its proper place, as per the discussion that seems to have taken place (it looks like the article was moved back, but not the associated talk page. Thanks for catching that! Blast 22.03.07 0144 (UTC)

Great! Thanks! --Bensin 14:19, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Different name on discussion page again

Same problem as above. Please look at I Don't Want to Wait and then click on "Discussion". Note that the name of the discussion page is not the same as the name on the article. Can I fix this problem myself? --Bensin 12:44, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Someone moved an article that was there. I deleted the useless redirect, and the talk page should work now. Luigi30 (Taλk) 12:56, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Great! Thanks! --Bensin 12:58, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Help editing protected template

{{helpme}} Please help me edit the protected template:infobox single. See my request on the template's talk page[1]. --Bensin 22:18, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi there you will need to either leave a message about what you want edited on the templates talk page and/or leave a message for admin on the Admins noticeboard. Andy^talk 21:51, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Please see my link in my request above to view the request I posted on the templates talk page. --Bensin

Also, it looks like you're trying to edit Template:Infobox Single/doc, a subpage of the main template which actually isn't protected (one advantage of the /doc pages is that they allow us to protect a template without necessarily protecting the instructions for using it). Hope that makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions in that regard. – Luna Santin (talk) 22:00, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

What makes you think I tried to edit Template:Infobox Single/doc? --Bensin 22:18, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Disambiguation linking

Thanks for your addition to Hero (disambiguation)! However, note that on disambiguation pages, only disambiguation targets should generally be linked: see the entry formatting guidelines for more information. --Piet Delport 18:33, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

That makes sense. Thanks for letting me know! --Bensin 21:26, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Glad to help. --Piet Delport 04:47, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Robin Cook (entertainer)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Robin Cook (entertainer), by Hu (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Robin Cook (entertainer) seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Robin Cook (entertainer), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it did not nominate Robin Cook (entertainer) itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 10:53, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Trampofoil

A tag has been placed on Trampofoil, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD G11.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Phgao 00:26, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up! I will contest it on the article's talk page. --Bensin 00:39, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Day by Day (Regina song)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Day by Day (Regina song), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page. Fabrictramp 01:00, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! I removed the template since the song now meets criterion 3 in WP:MUSIC: "It has been ranked on a national or significant music chart". --Bensin 18:31, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Steve John Shepherd

Hi Bensin, I noticed you removed information from this article because the source link is now dead. I have replaced with an active source, but it is not necessary to delete information just because a link goes dead (this happens all the time, and a large proportion of information on here would need to be culled if this was the practice). Wikipedia:Citing sources#What to do when a reference link "goes dead" This link gives info on what to do if a link goes dead :) Gungadin♦ 19:17, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello! OK, thanks for the tip on dead links. Please see Talk:Steve John Shepherd for more on the information I deleted[2]. --Bensin 00:16, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Lasileuka

Tbh I looked at imdb, saw "This plot synopsis is empty. Add a synopsis" and not even a single picture and told to myself "Oh, another student short movie". Keep in mind that articles about movies need to assert why they are notable or fall under the CSD A7 criteria. That being said, I'll give you some time to work on it :). -- lucasbfr ^talk 23:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

(crap closed the window). It's definitely much better, and no longer A7able. I try to avoid prodding new articles because if the user chooses to remove the tag (without addressing the issues), you're supposed to send it to AfD (which is cluttered enough already). But I'm a huge prodder on "old" (more than a few days old) articles. To be honest I personally think it's not notable enough (but I'm biased, I'm deleting spam and childish A7 the whole day, I've now got a high threshold :). You should try to find some press coverage about the award. I hope that helps! (And of course, thanks for your help expanding the encyclopedia) -- lucasbfr ^talk 00:05, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Peace (song

Hello! Just to let you know, I moved your article at Peace (song to Peace (song), with the closing parenthesis. As an added note, it looks as though the song is notable, but you may want to include some additional information to make sure it isn't deleted or merged into the artist's page. Thanks! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 03:55, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Thought you might have, but went ahead and moved it just in case. :-) Happy editing. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 04:08, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Jimmy Dean (song)

Hi! Sorry for not coming back to you earlier :). I decided to not do it, since even the main article Troll (Swedish band) was deleted (it was a 1 liner). I restored Troll (Swedish band), but I'll keep an eye on it, and delete it again in a week if it still does not meet WP:CSD#A7 :). Thanks. -- lucasbfr ^talk 12:14, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
