2 Player Productions undeletion
While I am admin and could do it myself, I'd rather make sure procedure is followed since I have some interest in the article as tangent to other articles I have.

I had not had 2 Player Productions on my watchlist so I was unaware of the PROD of it, and only after links to it removed on other pages I watch, came to know about it. I agree that at face value the article was a problem, but I just looked at google news and have at least 3 detailed articles from RS about the company, , , and that's just the first page of gnews archive search. I think the company is notable and thus the deletion should be reversed. --M ASEM (t) 18:19, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Thanks, I'll add those refs to the article now. --M ASEM (t) 20:10, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

AFD closure
Hello, I wonder why you closed this AFD as a "delete" when there were one vote each for keep and delete, and therefore no consensus established. I had just relisted it to reach a clearer consensus. Zaminamina Eh Eh Waka Waka Eh Eh 22:09, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

I didn't saw the relist you did, I was closing from what I saw on today's list, sorry about that. AFD is WP:NOTAVOTE, and the keep commenter didn't offer any policy based rationale. With sourcing a major concern, the state of the article, and the evaluation of the two delete-based comments it was a rather easy closure and I don't think relisting would have helped in this situation. Consensus can be formed in an AFD debate with a few well-based rationales. 22:31, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

Your proposed RfA nomination
Secret, thank you for considering me as a potential admin. I haven't felt a burning need to become one, as I rather enjoy the process of reaching a decision by consensus, and I don't often object to the decisions that admins make where I am involved. I'm also aware that I have not been contributing much to articles in my field of expertise recently, and admin duties would make such contributions even less frequent! Still, I know that Wikipedia needs admins. If you don't mind, I'll take a little time to think about what I would do with the admin tools. RockMagnetist (talk) 17:40, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Secret, I looked at the details of my Admin Score, and see a negative score under "Edits to admin areas (AIV/RPP/AfD)". Do you have any idea why? RockMagnetist (talk) 18:38, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Probably lack of extensive participation in those areas, AIV looks accurate, AFD there isn't much but your participation is related to your subject areas which in my opinion AFDs should exactly be done in non clear cut cases. That admin score thing has some major flaws and "edits to admin areas" is really a non-factor in your case. I looked at several brilliant FA content writers scores on "edits to admin areas" and they are deep in the negative because they don't even bother to participate in those area. The only people who scored high in the "admin areas" participation are people who are really active in that area, and many of those people listed will never pass an RFA, and one editor with a high score there in my opinion should be banned from the project. I wouldn't worry about it at all. Secret account 18:58, 5 March 2013 (UTC)


 * I have thought about it and I am interested in going ahead with the nomination. RockMagnetist (talk) 23:12, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Not yet
Hi Secret. Still in a holding pattern on that RfA, waiting for the nominee to make the final push. Worm TT( talk ) 18:29, 5 March 2013 (UTC)


 * I saw it was accepted a few days ago, questions answered and he wasn't sure what to do next in an edit summary. I reminded him about that RFA. Secret account 18:32, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Reminding him is one thing, but transcluding it was a step too far. Many editors are unsure about the RfA process - I'd rather they went for it when *they* were ready, not when someone pops along to decide it for them. Worm TT( talk ) 18:34, 5 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, I apologize, I guess I'm stuck in the 2006/2007 RFA days in which once it is accepted and questions were answered, any editor can transclude it. I didn't know it is highly frowned upon now. His edit summary on accept, what to do next did confuse me however. Secret account 18:37, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah, the days when RfA wasn't regarded as a bloodbath, and there were regularly 4 or 5 other candidates to consider at the same time. It's alright, no harm, no foul :) Worm TT( talk ) 19:01, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Or 15 :) Secret account 19:11, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
 * . OK, so I haven't written the world's best answer to the standard questions. I'm willing to stand just based on my contributions: "facta, non verba". Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!.--Shirt58 (talk) 11:32, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

where were you on the night batman was killed?
if i find enough reliable sources, can the article be resurrected? - Kailash29792 (talk) 07:31, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

The best I could do is WP:USERFY it for you, and then check the article myself if it meets some sort of guideline that gives it a chance to survive articles for deletion. It is a contested prod, but the article stands no chance of surviving anything the way it stands now, as it's simply a plot summary of an "individual" comic book of a large series. And the sources can't be only the comic themselves. I really don't know any guidelines regarding comic books other than the plot link I gave above, but WP:NBOOK is the closest advise I give you for how the article to be to survive any kind of deletion.

File:Jean Burns Nancy Bird Walton.jpg
Did you read the talk page before deleting File:Jean Burns Nancy Bird Walton.jpg? Delicious carbuncle (talk) 18:54, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Undeleted and then deleted with a different rationale, CSD tagger used the wrong tag. Secret account 19:06, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Please read this. And please undelete the talk page this time so that this confusion isn't repeated. Thanks. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 19:12, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Undeleted, take that dispute of that image over to commons or WP:FFD so a better consensus could be formed. Secret account 19:24, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but I don't have any dispute to take anywhere. While we're talking, what was the issue with File:2007 Certegy data breach letter.jpg? I'm looking at a cached copy right now and the comment which reads "I took this scan and I give full permission to use the image anywhere. I originally distributed it to a few friends by e-mail in 2007 when it happened. It's historically significant and I've been meaning to add it to the Certegy article for years". How is this image a copyright violation? Delicious carbuncle (talk) 19:31, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I looked at the image before deletion, copyrighted letter, tag clearly wrong here as the uploader wasn't the one who wrote the letter, it might be considered fair use, but I doubt it. Secret account 19:37, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * No copyright appears on the letter which I am looking at. Even if it were copyrighted, it would seem to fall under fair use, but since neither of us is sure, perhaps you can undelete and send this one to WP:FFD? Thanks. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 20:07, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello? Delicious carbuncle (talk) 23:23, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that, I been killing some hidden backlogs of spam and such that I got busy undeleted and nominated. Secret account 23:25, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Co-nominate me for RFA?
Stradivarius has convinced me to run for RFA, so I remembered that you had asked me in the past and wanted to know if you or TBrandley (I'll post this on their page as well) wanted to co-nominate me. (Requests for adminship/Tokyogirl79) Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   07:32, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

RAF nominations
I just wanted to say that if you can continue to find candidates like your last two, this will have a huge long-term positive impact on Wikipedia. Keep it up! (no need for a reply)--I am One of Many (talk) 18:19, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
