The de-orphaning script
Remember that de-orphaning script? It's finally out. Check out User:Manishearth/OrphanTabs for details. Manish EarthTalk • Stalk 08:02, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Really?
I saw your note on my talkpage. I would like to contest your right to impose such a restriction. And I may add from the start, that if you are within your right, such a sanction will be sufficient reason for me to leave Wikipedia. Debresser (talk) 18:08, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

May rationale is simple: if you (or for that matter any other administrator of Wikipdia) is willing to impose a sanction on me, without any regard to the background of my actions (as you have stated clearly that you do not care), then such an injustice goes against my priciples. In view of the nature of this conflict, as described in the editwar report, I can not but see your sanction as an injustice. Debresser (talk) 18:12, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

See Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring for a specific explanation of why I consider this sanction an injustice. Debresser (talk) 18:34, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

That discussion was closed with the note that the place for appeal is wp:ani. I have been offline a week, because I moved. I posted my appeal on Administrators%27_noticeboard. Debresser (talk) 18:48, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

 * BTW, I noticed I address you as female, but others address you as male. What do you prefer? Debresser (talk) 21:59, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I am male, although on-wiki, who really cares? :) --Aervanath (talk) 22:36, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll change my post accordingly. Interesting, I should have erred so. Debresser (talk) 22:47, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I didn't even notice. :) I was more concerned with trying to find a fair way to deal with this situation. By the way, in the future, you can check if somebody has the gender set in their preferences by using gender. Cheers, --Aervanath (talk) 04:23, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

You gotta help me here! Please!
The entire paperwork is so confusing, and I wonder if you can help me on the paperwork please. I'm requesting for Otterathome to be banned becuase he violated a couple of the Wikipedia guidelines such as:
 * Involved in several edit wars.
 * Constantly gaming the system.
 * Betraying a couple of people.
 * Redirected his userpage to Autofellatio.
 * Stereotyped Uncyclopedians in a derogatory manner (from my view, I think).
 * In his user talkpage, the links are obscured, and he ignored the consensus.

Here are his contributions. This guy must be stopped. Please. Joe9320 of the CUWP |  Contact the Council  00:10, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The WBCN radio information
Dear Aervanath: It has just been pointed out to me by some former DJs who worked at WBCN radio that their names and the names of several others have been deleted by the last people who “edited” the page. There is a very accurate list being compiled now by Lisa Traxler, who was one of the BCN employees along with me. I am hesitant to write, say or touch the WBCN Wikipedia page because of the trouble I had a year ago, when I made some of my own edits and you rescued me after months of hassle and confusion.. I could have Lisa contact you by email or on this post if you'd like, but she is a very reliable and accurate source- any of her suggested changes can be substantiated in several ways, depending on the criteria demanded by your people at W. Here's my email address: charles@radiowaveX.com Here's Lisa Traxler's email address: lisatraxler@yahoo.com

I await your suggestions as to how to correct the Wikopedia re-writing of history by the whoever the last contributors were.

20 August 2009 - Yarlung Zangbo Canyon move
Hello. I see that you handled a move of Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon to Yarlung Tsangpo Canyon back in May, so I assume you're an appropriate person to contact. Well, there have been two moves of the article since, and now the article is entitled Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyo. Yes, "Canyo" without the "n". I understand that there's been some discussion over the transliteration of the Tibetan name, but I'd hope that a spelling error in the word "canyon" would be worthy of correction.

It also appears that 虞海 has gone around and changed both the articles on the river and the canyon to Yarlung Zangbo after you had changed it all to Yarlung Tsangpo. 72.92.143.228 (talk) 07:25, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

On RFA
Hi, Aervanath. Following my previous RFA, you asked me to contact you before my next RFA. Since you expressed an intention to support or even co-nominate, I'm not sure if I'm actually allowed to do that under WP:CANVASS; but I'm not immediately jumping into that particular breach in any case, hence I feel able to speak to you. :) The situation is that Stifle has suggested I might stand again, and I have received email contact from another user recommending that I stand. I think I will do so in a month or so.  (I'd like for my good article nomination to go through first in an attempt to hold David Fuchs, et. al., at bay.) I'd be grateful for your honest opinion: do you think sufficient time will have passed by September or October?— S Marshall  Talk / Cont  10:01, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject Orphanage
Hi Aervanath. I'm curious as to why you decided to become less active in de-orphaning articles? I've recently began to take up this task, I find it quite fun actually. Depending on your reasons for moving away from this area of maintenance, maybe I can get some insight from you as to what I can expect. Regards, &oelig; &trade; 21:42, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

You deleted "WikiProject Opera Browser" with the edit summery "Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Opera Browser", but wouldn't it be better to just mark the page as historical?

Napoleon and Tabitha D'umo
Six months ago I argued that this article be moved to Napoleon D'umo since his wife Tabitha had her own page and since they have different histories prior to meeting each other. I have since changed my mind: last month Altenmann placed a redirect/link in the marriage section on Tabitha's page to the marriage section on Napoleon's page. In the edit summary he/she typed "to avoid divergence of content". This made me start to feel differently.

The marriage section, the lead, and almost all of the career section on both pages are identical. They only section that's vastly different is early life. I want to recreate Napoleon and Tabitha D'umo and decrease their individual pages to stubs. The stubs would only have the early life section and the new article would have everything related to their career. I was planning to go ahead with the process but I thought I would check with you first because I noticed that when you moved the page back in April, you also moved the history. I didn't want to mess up protocol (if there is any) since you moved the history so I thought I would ask you first before I got started. // Gbern3 (talk) 19:18, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Malta–Moldova relations
It seems that action was never taken on the consensus from the "Merge and delete" discussion at the Bilateral relations task force page, at least with regards to the redirect at Malta–Moldova relations. Is there any particular reason that action was not taken, or is it just something that no one got around to? If there's a reason for it being there, that's fine - I'd just like to know so that the modified RfD tag can be removed. Thanks! —Zach425 talk / contribs 08:12, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of 2009 Honduran coup d'état
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is 2009 Honduran coup d'état. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/2009 Honduran coup d'état. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:11, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

Latin American Australian
Hi Aervanath,

On 15 June 2009 you moved Latin Australian to Latin American Australian. This followed a contentous and tiring debate between a single interest editor User:LatinoAussie (since banned) who wanted either "Latino Australian" or "Latin Australian", and others who wanted to use consistent and commonly used terminology.

On 20 January 2010 User:Plzppl moved Latin American Australian to Latin Australian over redirect, saying "the term Latin American Australian does not exist, Latino Australian is much more appropriate". Plzppl either ignored or was ignorant of the fraught and obvious debate on the talk page. He certainly did not take the right approach required for controversial moves.

I have a strong suspicion that Plzppl is one of the many (seven so far identified) sockpuppets of LatinoAussie (see Category:Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Cazique). Plzppl, like LatinoAussie appears to only edit hip hop articles, as well as the Latino Australian page.

Could you please allow the move of Latin Australian to Latin American Australian please?

Thanks,

Debresser
Hello,

I wondered if you could look at these, and see if you feel you can counter sign either (or both) of them?

 * I'm sorry, but I'm not really sure my involvement would be helpful here. I've been semi-retired for a while, and I don't currently have the time to give a dispute like this the attention it deserves. Also, I tend to be somewhat blunt and heavy-handed when I do get involved, which has not always proved productive in the past. In scanning the two pages, I couldn't see anything which was particularly relevant to me, personally.  If there is something I missed, please let me know. Thanks, --Aervanath (talk) 17:33, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Geber
Many thanks for making the page move for Geber to Jābir ibn Hayyān. I've converted Geber to a disambiguation page and I've also changed some of the links that pointed to that page to point directly to the new page if appropriate.

All the best. –Syncategoremata (talk) 23:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
