Tagging of The Stone (band)
I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on The Stone (band). I do not think that The Stone (band) fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because There is a clear claim of notability here, with multiple full-length albums released. If you think this still should be delted, please use articles for deletion instead. I request that you consider not re-tagging The Stone (band) for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page. DES (talk) 16:31, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I did not in any way think or assume you were on a mission to remove this or any other page. i routinely inform editors when i remove a speedy tag that the editor had previously placed, incase there is some cirumstance that I had over looked, and so they can be aware of my view that the tag was misplaced. That is, of course, only my view, and other editors might well differ. I have used varients of the above msg with many editors, it was in no way intended to be any sort of personal reflection.  I apologize if i seemed to be assuming that you would edit improperly. DES (talk) 14:53, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Bob Cousy Award

 * 1) !$^@$%&??? This is an award given to the best point guard in college basketball not adverstising a blog or website

Bob Cousy Award Is that good enough Mein Fuhrer? or should I look for a higher authority on college basketball than the NCAA and the basketball hall of fame?

A) I was in the middle of shaping up the article when you tagged it for deletion

B) With all this effort you could have googled the subject yourself

C) If you think "If i do it for them, they'll never learn" thats ridiculous, you'll never stop bad articles from being created and deletion based solely on form rather than the importance of the subject is a punishment for everyone not just the poster
 * Right, point taken. I did Google, but apparently I missed "really" important stuff. Now, I don't claim to be perfect, if you'll check my userboxes, you'll be able to find the appropriate one pertaining to that. Also, I have some nice reading material: WP:NAM. Going into full assault mode will accomplish nothing. I fully admit that I'm not all-knowing. Unfortunately, your article very much resembled NN material, as such it got tagged, but there's always the procedure of . As such I do not see why you are so pissed off. --Andante1980 12:59, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Because speedy deletion is just short hand for calling me a jackass

I was very close to logging of, and it would've been weeks before i logged back in again or checked that article (it probably would have been deleted)

Yes things would probably be better if people followed the rules 100% and checked their talk pages and checked the articles they made but things are going to suck if you only accept content from people like that

and yes i know you have to put up with a lot of crap
