New Page Patrol survey[edit]
 New page patrol – Survey Invitation Hello Seduisant! The WMF is currently developing new tools to make new page patrolling much easier. Whether you have patrolled many pages or only a few, we now need to know about your experience. The survey takes only 6 minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist us in analyzing the results of the survey; the WMF will not use the information to identify you.
Please click HERE to take part. You are receiving this invitation because you have patrolled new pages. For more information, please see NPP Survey. Global message delivery 13:12, 26 October 2011 (UTC) |

Hi, after a level 4 ("final") warning, you should report vandals to WP:AIV where an admin will block them, rather than just giving them another warning. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 18:26, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for March 6[edit]
Hi. When you recently edited Honeypot (computing), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hacker (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Re: My Compliments[edit]
Yes, I created WikiProject Death, but User:Jeraphine Gryphon did the most recent layout update. I agree it looks great, though! :) --Geniac (talk) 00:28, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
Look of Love[edit]
Just FYI: If/when you create an article for the Lesley Gore song, the correct title appears to be "Look of Love" (no "The"). See these many examples. Cheers! --ShelfSkewed Talk 18:12, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Declined speedy deletion[edit]
I have declined your speedy deletion tagging of Freaky boiz. My feeling is that there are just enough references there to pass WP:CSD#A7 as a claim of importance. At least some of them appear to be reliable sources, so I think that if it is to be deleted, it needs to be a fuller discussion. If you still think the article should be deleted, please take it to WP:AFD (after doing WP:BEFORE to see if there are other valid references). Qwyrxian (talk) 11:29, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Pardofelis and Catopuma[edit]
Okay, these are the sources I've seen, so that we know where we are. MSW3, which was published in 2005, places the bay and Asian golden cats in Catopuma, and is presumably the source used in our articles. The IUCN redlist, whose pages on the subject were last revised in 2008, places all three in Pardofelis. The Handbook of the Mammals of the World, vol. 1, published in 2009, uses the MSW3 categorisation - although I note it has one of the same editors-in-chief.
The IUCN quotes as their source this article in Science magazine (registration required), alongside a then-unpublished paper apparently submitted to the Journal of Mammalogy, but which I have been unable to locate in the journal's archives. Looking at the Science paper, it simply asserts the use of Pardofelis (sensu lato), without specifically justifying it. The cladogram provides plausible grounds for the broader meaning, but does not demand it, since Catopuma would remain monophyletic.
So. Hmm. I'm not seeing much of a scientific consensus there, really. Anaxial (talk) 18:28, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Regarding the edit to SMiLE...[edit]
I deleted a single review that was an outlier. It was way off from virtually every other review written about this album. I read it, and the reviewer in question was not able to back up his bad rating with any real thought or analysis. The whole thing was 2 short paragraphs long and said nothing of value except "Pet Sounds is better" and then threw around some very pretentious phrases like "pop economy" to seem hip. It reads like a snob wanting to be the first to say the emperor has no clothes and thus look like an edgy reporter ahead of the crowd. Well, if the reviewer in question was at least able to express his criticism intelligently I would've kept the review up. But as it stands, it is an informally written, highly biased and all-around unhelpful bit of crap. It has no right to be used as an academic source. I removed it, and I'd do it again. The only reason I can think for you to disagree is because you want to have one stock "bad review" to "show balance" in the article, whether it's deserved or not. That, or you yourself are biased against me simply because I edited a page without being a member. Forgive me, but I've met many stuck up Wiki-editors with that mindset. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.190.89.140 (talk) 03:07, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Re:Crossarchus[edit]
I know, an old edit, but it was sitting for multiple years - this ref is about "Crossarchus alexandri", not "Crossarchus" Bulwersator (talk) 10:28, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
Re: Thanks for the update on the Ptown article[edit]
I've never quite figured the best way to respond directly to a post on my talk page... that is, do I reply on your page, like this, or do I post on my page, so you can see both sides of the conversation... I chose the latter, so this is just a 'tickler' note pointing back to my response. Thanks!!! Groll†ech (talk) 00:18, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Just wanted to let you know that I have created Long Point (Cape Cod). When you get a moment, I'd love to get your thoughts on it. Thanks! Groll†ech (talk) 00:41, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
Inappropriate posting by this user[edit]
I am appalled at an inappropriate posting on my talk page from this user. Resorting to an ad hominem reference is unjustifiable. 98.229.11.248 (talk) 18:32, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Claims of Vandalism?[edit]
What is your problem, buddy? I don't remember "vandalizing" any pages. Don't smack people with false vandalism claims, it's not nice.
Thembonesareme (talk) 16:29, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
Re. Vandal[edit]
That's alright, I should have expected something like that - esp. on an article for a person of infamy/controversy - might happen. Hope someone can bring the real joker to wiki-justice. Good-bye.

Speedy deletion contested: Google Compute Engine[edit]
Hello Seduisant. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Google Compute Engine, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. →Στc. 03:22, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Articles on Cats[edit]
We happen to have both edited Wildcat recently, and i think you'll want the whole picture these present:
- Discordance between your summary and the edit's effect
- Net effect of edits since mine
- The IP's suite of 3 consecutive edits: What you must have intended to revert
(I don't know from ... shall i say Batguano? ... about cats (and don't recall what drew me into my stylistic edits), so i've no perspective on the IP in question.)
--Jerzy•t 20:42, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
That was not vandalism![edit]
In the page 'Big Cat', I noticed that in the 'Evolution' section there was a mistake, because it contradicts the reference where it comes from. If you look at the page of the reference, it says 'About 3.6 to 2.5 million years ago, the jaguar began to evolve, while lions and leopards split from one other about 3.1 to 1.95 million years ago.', whereas in the article it says that firstly lions split from the group, and then jaguars from leopards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laia lion (talk • contribs) 09:41, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
