Hymn Of One

Hi... I was wondering why the page on the fictional religion in the LG15

universe was labeled a hoax... it was to be used as an educational tool within the fanverse and not to be taken seriously. I'm not really sure why this was labeled a hoax. Iacio89 19:14, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Michael Tierra

Why did you remove an article about one of the most famous herbalists in America, a founder of the professional organization and originator of Planetary herbology? I have no relationship with him and I wrote it because of his importance to contemporary herbalism, which was amply documented. I am in the process of writing about the various important herbalists in the US and UK. It took me several hours to write it. I would like to put it back. It was tagged when I put it in as a stub, before I finished it, and I added ample information relating to his importance in changing the parochial practices of herbal medicine to a more syncretic format. I put on a holdon tag. Is there anyway that I can get it back? Ksvaughan2 01:29, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

You can remove the page where you let me work on the article now. I have a score of different references.05:54, 17 April 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ksvaughan2 (talk • contribs)

Hello, did you happen to look at the change log before deleting the article? I had completed the work and posted the full article. Something must have it caused it to revert back to my first stub ...? If you check my contributions you'll see a record of my work. I am a little annoyed because after getting the article up, I added some citations and edits without backing it back up to my sandbox, sigh. Tanjstaffl(talk) 23:42, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of article: O.B.E.

Hmm... you used the WP:SPEEDY rule (a7, not notable) to delete the article on O.B.E. (a Scottish whatever band), just after I wikified the article. Now, I am not a big an of a7, because I believe a that an WP:AfD with a hint towards WP:N is always more appropriate in this case. But let's not discuss this.

The problem with you deletion is the result of it. If you looked closer, you would have seen that I added a reference to the disambigation page of OBE. Now you ought to have asked yourself "why the hell did he do that?", then check what links to O.B.E.? and find out that several people refer to the honorary title "Officer of the British Empire" using this shortcut. Before, the wikipedia had one useless article (we both can agree on that, but that does not matter), but one might have found out what those ~30 articles meant when refering to the O.B.E. by looking at the {{#otheruses}} template. Now there are only 30 dead links with no hint to what they mean. I'll fix that now by setting a redirect, but I consider it a necessary step for you to do if you want to use your admin rights responsibly.

Plus, if you see that someone edits a disambig page to point to an article and you delete the article (because you deem it not noteworthy) be so kind to delete the entry on the disambig page, too. Same for the discussion page if the only entry there is related to the current state of the article. Tierlieb 11:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Blabbermouth.net

Hi. I noticed that you recently deleted Blabbermouth.net ("no notability asserted (a7)"). This concerns me not neccessarily because I contributed to the article whatsoever, but for two other reasons. One, I can't for the life of me find any deletion discussion. This is probably my fault, since I'm still kind of new to the whole deletion debate part of Wikipedia, but I did a pretty extensive search as best I know how and couldn't find anything. Second, and perhaps more importantly, there are A TON of pages that link to the Blabbermouth.net article (see this. 121 at last count.) I would argue that given that so many articles link to the page, that Blabbermouth.net is indeed notable, and that the article need only be edited to state exactly how, rather than outright deleting it and causing a ton of red links. Drewcifer3000 04:32, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi again, and thanks for the speedy response! My intention was not to cite the number of pages that link to the Blabbermouth.net article as its notability, but to point out that it might not be such a cut and dry case of deleting on sight. Like I said previously, I had no hand in the article at all, so I don't think I'm really the best person to rescue the article and appropriately state its notability because, honestly, I have no idea if it really is all that notable. But given the large number of links to the article, I would say that the fate of the article would be more appropriately decided on a AfD page. (Since I was unable to look at the article on Wikipedia, I looked it up on Answer.com, which had a mirror of it. I have no idea how old or accurate the mirror is, but it gave me a good idea of what the article looked like. So I'll speak about the article as it appeared on Answer.com, which could, I admit, be completely misleading.) Given the fairly large amount of content in the article, and the fairly large amount of editors/editing that the content implies, I would assume many Wiki editors would have something to say about the deletion of the article, would contribute significantly to AfD proposal, and hopefully fix the article along the way. Anyways, sorry for the long post, hope you didn't get lost along the way. Drewcifer3000 05:11, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

i cant think why they would delete that page. i think wikipedia is going downhill tbh. quite a few pages get deleted for highly questionable reasons, if a reason is given at all. blabbermouth gets a LOT of traffic every day, so if one of these hundreds of thousands of patrons tries to look it up on wikipedia, they wont find anything. doesnt really reflect well on wikipedia i think. could somebody post the reason for its deletion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.207.184.179 (talk • contribs)

Hey, so given the bit of feedback of seen here, I would recommend nominating the article for AfD. That's just my opinion, but I think we could get some good debate that way. Thanks for your understanding and patience in the matter. Drewcifer3000 22:45, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

If you make any changes, even if it is correcting a wrong but long-standing info, please state where you source it from. Otherwise, most likely it will get reverted, as most people not familiar with the subject will choose to think the former was the correct version (as it has withstood scrutiny for a long time). So, please state sources just to avoid miscommunication. --soum (0_o) 05:52, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry that I forgot stating the sources, but now I already put the sources on the edit summary. Thanks. 121.44.1.153 05:54, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Xenon (manga)

I have no problem with you deleting this (from my quick scan of the article content, it failed CSD A7), but happening across it when it was on PROD has more or less spurred me to want to write a better article on the subject (I can establish notability). Is there any chance I can get a userspace copy of the old article, so I can judge if there's anything salvageable in it? If there's not, I will likely have it deleted again within a week; this isn't an attempt to keep a deleted stub around. Thanks for your time, whatever the answer is.

Hi, you protected the article for American Nightmare to prevent the removal of a redirect.

watmm article

hello, i noticed u renominated the WATMM article for deletion because you felt "a consensus may be reached", however it is clear that during the first round of voting took place everyone said KEEP, so i cant imagine a more perfect concensus could have been reached. the reason i'm bringing this up is because i feel you have a definite agenda. i dont expect a response and i see u have worked on m$ articles so i understand that fascism resides deep in your persona, i just wanted to bring to light that you are acting irresponsible. --AlexOvShaolin 20:19, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Regarding MS Development tools template

Hello. I think 'Template:MS DevTools' can be better called MS Development Technologies. So you dont have to leave out critical languages, frameworks and APIs. What do you think? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xpclient (talk • contribs) 05:16, 2 May 2007 (UTC).

Actually there is a separate APIs template as well. I was also thinking of merging the two. But later decided against doing it then only and wait for views of others. Do you think they should be merged? I think they better be kept separate. If someone is looking for the APIs, its very likely they are already familiar with the development tools. So, it would be redundant for them. --soum (0_o) 05:26, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

I dont think merging would be a good idea because APIs are innumerable and tools are comparitively few. Besides, the APIs template seems to be incomplete and not properly organized. I've added some APIs too to the tools template. You may revert them if you wish. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xpclient (talk • contribs)

Its ok. Major APIs can indeed be included with the API template for a more detailed list. I just made some reordering. Take a look. --soum (0_o) 05:49, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of Article Routing Assets Database

I originally came to Wikipedia trying to get information on "Routing Arbiter Data Base" (RADB) which lead me to the page "Routing Assets Database" After doing some additional reasearch I found that Routing Assets Database is more correctly abrevated RADb I created the additional redirect page RADb I also added some reference links to support the use of RADb and to beter explain it. You decided to delete the page as "Blatant Advertising" but left both rediret pages in place. I strong disagree that anything on the page is "Blatant Advertising" If the Reference link is considered as such, then delete the link. Do NOT delete the entire page. The reference link was added for the purpose of documenting the source of the information, not to advertise anything. I am new to Wikipedia and do not know the proper what to proceed so I have posted this request a few places. Dbiel 08:19, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply, if was very helpful. I appreciate that you posted part of the contents of the deleted page. What is strange to me is that the page was created by someone else months ago with numerous edits, then sat dormant for months, but when I started adding to it, then the notability issue came up. Any idea why that is the case? Also how would one go about getting the rest of the original page? Since it was created by someone else and I never made a copy of it, I have no way to recreate it. Thank you again for you reply. Dbiel 12:19, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your additional reply. I am currently in the data collection stage. Once I get past that stage and get the article somewhat organized I would be grateful for your assistance. I have placed a helpme flag on my page regarding the RADb redirect page Thank you again for your replies. Dbiel 18:51, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your additional comments. Could you take a look at Routing_Assets_Database and see if it is acceptable per your suggestion? Dbiel 02:39, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for taking a look at it. I was actually editing the page to get rid of the "advertising" feature that I forgot about when I first saved it. When I tried to save it, I ran into your edit. Such is life in a Wiki. Thanks again for your time and for cleaning up the format of the content. I will leave it as you edited for now as it meets the basic concern of having a definition available and I will continue to work on the page itself in my space. Once I have worked up to an acceptable point (from my point of view), I would take you up on your offer to review it. This will probably take several weeks to accomplish. Dbiel 03:16, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks again for the reply [quote]:Sure. The page is on my watchlist. I will know any changes you make. Good job. Keep up the good work[/quote] note that I will not be working on the "live" page, but will be doing all my editing on the copy in my workspace and will let you know when that one is ready. My style of working is such that comments on that page before it is ready are going to be a waste of your time as I tend to work in a very unorganized fashion. Dbiel 19:30, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Could I ask you to take a look at the following article that is a spin off of RADB User:Dbiel/Rice_Allelopathy_Data_Base Thank you in advance. Dbiel 08:03, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to review Rice Allelopathy Data Base and for leaving some very productive and useful comments. It is interesting how one thing spins of or leads into another. Started off with editing Routing Assets Database which brought the article to your attention resulting in you deleting it, which lead me to the redirect page RADB and previously to creating an additional redirect page RADb which lead to a changing RADB into a disambiguation page, but with links to only one article created problems, which lead into creating Rice Allelopathy Data Base which as I expanded it tended to be more about Professor Rice which may now lead into another new article about Professor Rice.

Indef-blocked IPs

Hello. You recently extended the block on 86.148.189.51 (talk · contribs · block log) from 31 hours to indefinite.

Sorry, most of the indef blocks were set as a mistake. I generally use the keyboard shortcuts to set the fields. If a key misfires, it causes the block time to be wrongly set. I realize most of the mistakes and tweak them properly but once in a blue moon, some escape through. As for the indef block, I did it temporarily thinking of requesting a checkuser, meanwhile preventing the user from editing. But later decided against it, but forgot to revert the block.

Keith Olbermann page - anon edits

Hey, I remember you helping out with the Media Matters for America by only allowing registered users edit it for a while. Could you do the same for the Keith Olbermann page. The latest edits by anon users keep adding 'liberal' to the lead sentence with no proof, or cite, so it looks like undisputed fact instead of someone's opinion. I'm afraid I am getting close to 3RR violation on this page and so feel I should probably not revert as it is not a case of clear vandalism, but these edits are becoming disruptive. History of the KO page is here [4] Thanks, R. Baley 21:11, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

It has started up again on Media Matters for America and the discussion page, IP anon has done this earlier, any way here's the IP's talk page[5]. I've already put a warning on the user page. Please help.R. Baley 03:08, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Criticism of Windows Vista

Hey Soumyasch, could take a look at Talk:Criticism of Windows Vista and give your opinion? Right now it's a one vs. one arguement between me and Zubenzenubi and I would appiciate a third opinion. He says his information is valid, I say it's unattribuateble and source-less, he adds the info, I revert it, he reverts me, I revert him and we aren't getting anywhere.

Windows Vista Networking Technologies

Wow good job. It looks really good. It's a long read but has a lot of good information. I would just suggest more citations because there seemed to be multiple paragraphs without any cites. The intro seemed a pretty long though. I would recommend taking some of it and putting the info in appropriate sections. But otherwise, even though I knew most of the information, I felt like I was learning a lot :P. Paul Cyr 21:19, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I have spun off the fork. Will edit there only. --soum (0_o) 04:39, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

How about Network technologies in Windows Vista? — Alex^(U|C|E) 06:44, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Network technologies? Or Networking technologies, as in Networking technologies in Windows Vista or Networking technologies new to Windows Vista? I chose Vista networking technologies because there was precedent, not because I am terribly fond of the name. --soum (0_o) 07:23, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

The Evgenia Eremina page

Hello

Sir .... I find the Kryptonite Kid's comments (on the discussion page) offensive. I am not a member of Met-Art, nor have I ever been. And his accusations are unfounded. I have been a personal friend of Ms. Eremina for some time now.

The changes I made to the page were done with her approval. She had no interest in including a link to the Wikipedia page on her site until these corrections were made. She did not know of the page until I mentioned it to her nor has she had any involvement with the page as far as editing it.

The Krypyonite Kid is the fan who set up his site and has used the Wikipedia page to subtly plug his web-site.

She tolerates this fan's behavior, but only marginally.

He has restored the page back to his version of it. I will not turn Wikipedia into a battleground for this obsessive fan. I will leave the decision of leaving the page in it's current version (which she does not approve of) or restoring the corrected truthful version (which she does approve of) up to you.

Thank you for your time.
