Why cannot I add that new title?
I have tried several times to add the new title but seemed someone did not allowed me to add it? What happened? Note: I am writing from a School Lab so seemed some otehr people used this lab terminal as Vandalism?

Hi Brookie

I am not clear why you have deleted the page "David Farmer". The information provided was accurate and substantiated.

Many thanks, Hunchermuncher.

MinSheng Bank
(moved from another section) Hi Brookie... I too am curious why MinSheng Bank was deleted. The bank seems to be real, even if operating under a slightly different name... Your edit summary didn't really explain why it was deleted in the first place, so I'm a bit clueless on how to help this user. Just at a glance it seems like a good subject for an article... ---J.S (T/C) 21:16, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

article creation WITH CONTENT: yes
Hello my friend, I saw your note on my talk page here. I guess this was about following two articles, which I created and did not yet fill with? Statement Coverage and Condition Coverage. I must agree in this point to you: I intended to write at that evening (see discussion pages), but something came up - so I postponed it. But you are of course correct, better to create these, when there is content. So, will stop adding things there yet, until finished.

DJ Webstar
On October 23, 2006, you deleted DJ Webstar as a CSD A7-repost. For nearly a month and a half, the article was constantly being re-deleted under CSD recreation criteria and it was eventually recreation-protected by Can't sleep, clown will eat me. I just want to let you know that there was an AfD for this article, and I closed it on October 19, 2006 after a consensus of "Speedy Keep" was reached (see Articles for deletion/DJ Webstar). I'm guessing you missed this AfD or something, and that's why you deleted the article, so that's why I came here just to let you know.  Nish kid 64  23:02, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Brookie,

Thanks for your message regarding Talkaudio, I will not recreate the page yet, but can can point me in the direction of what your A-7 code means so I can remedy the situation? :)

Cheers BladeUK 16:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Rich - any article must establish the notability of its subject - A7 is a seedy deletion criteria for an article that doesn't do that. Have a look at Notability - if you can establish some notability have another go. Good luck and be bold! Also please sign your posts with ~ or use the sugnature icon in the edit toolbar.

Talkaudio Deletion
Hello, thanks for your comments on my Talk page. I saw that you deleted the "Talkaudio" Wikipedia page, and believe that the page does have a right to exist. There was a "Notability" tag on the article which I removed as I believe I had established Notability in the article, was this a mistake?

In summary, reasons for noteability:-

- Coverage by "The Telegraph" in November 2004 (UK National newspaper article)

- Coverage by "Total Car Audio" (UK Car Audio magazine with national distribution

- Coverage of several members vehicles by "Fast Car Magazine" including references to Talkadio

- Coverage of several members vehicles by "Max Power Magazine" including references to Talkadio

These are all independent periodical publications.

I would appreciate it if the article could be re-instated, and welcome your help, comments and suggestions for the page.

Cheers --BladeUK 16:24, 11 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi there - I'm afraid it still read like a fanzine push rather than an article for an encyclopedia - is the 500th most important forum realy that notable? Try looking at articles for some similar type fora and see how they are worded etc - and then see if the article can be improved and made to read less like an advert! Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! (Whisper...) 16:38, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I see, thanks for your help. In the meantime, is there a way I can look at the last version of the Talkaudio page? I don't know how to access it now its gone...

Thomas Frederick Butler
"The Bishop's justifications to Mr Humphreys were not entirely convincing and some people thought that they came across as self-serving and not a little sanctimonious."

(Full disclosure: I know Tom Butler personally so I'm not going to edit the article myself - I was just curious about whether this event had surfaced on Wikipedia. Clearly it has.)

I heard the interview this morning, I am inclined to agree with this opinion (in fact, I'm inclined to be less charitable). That being said, it seems a little non-neutral without references. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.245.36.189 (talk) 19:03, 19 December 2006 (UTC).


 * Hey Brookie - thanks for getting involved with the Butler article. I added the original public drunkenness stuff. I've made a few more amendments. The only thing I'm a bit unsure about is the assertion that he's a bit of a disciplinarian. I'm going to put a note on the talk page about this, but if you can find a source that would be cool. I'm going to be out of the loop until Saturday, but if you could have a look over my (slight) changes that would be cool. Cheers! [edit] I've taken out the "self-serving...sanctimonious" sentence too - far too POV. Noted on the talk page. Bedesboy 20:41, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
