Splitting
Hi djd, I have started an attempt to clarify splitting at the talk page where you made your request. Please review and add your comments. Cheers, &bull; &bull; &bull; Peter (Southwood) (talk): 08:57, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Congrats... You asked an awesome question in the Teahouse!

Nominating stuff for deletion
Hi. I saw you attempted to nominate some pages for deletion at WP:MFD, but it didn't quiet come out right. Could you tell me what you were trying to delete? I'll try to help you get it sorted out. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 14:05, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User talk:djd (6 pages)

Group 1: Redirects to pages already deleted from a U1 request: (would be a G6 request if they were not User talk pages)
 * User talk:djd/Human Anatomy project
 * User talk:djd/Lexicography project
 * User talk:djd/sandbox/Transparent Men project
 * User talk:djd/sandbox/old Human Anatomy project

Group 2: Test edits that have been blanked, and would have been deleted under U1 or G7 but for the fact that they're User talk pages:
 * User talk:djd/sandbox
 * User talk:djd/sandbox/Human Anatomy/Old project

Of course, User talk:djd should remain untouched, as there is actual talk recorded.

In Part I of the instructions, it says to use " if nominating several related pages in an umbrella nomination."

but then in Part II, it only says to use " " with no further use of "GroupName" anywhere in the text. Perhaps it should be "subst:PAGENAME or GroupName"?

When I came to Part III, it became clear that " should refer to "pg=PageName or GroupName".  Whatever the correct procedure should be, the instructions should be updated accordingly, to avoid this sort of problem.  Thanks for your help!

 * Reply - I suggest that you use db-author as WP:G7 should apply here. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 17:14, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Done. The verbage at WP:U1 makes it sound like all User talk pages must be WP:MFD, but WP:GCSD does make clear that those criteria apply to all namespaces.  Thanks.  I do recommend that both WP:U1 and WP:MFD (in the collapsible box) be updated to clarify proper procedure and help keep us well-intentioned newbies on track!  Thanks again for your help.

The WP:USURP from WP:HELL saga
This confirms my request to usurp the current Wikiversity account djd for WP:SUL. Thanks!

Djd (talk) 00:23, 8 August 2013 (UTC)


 * WP:USURP requested 07/22/2013 due to security issue with Google.
 * Should have been completed 07/29/2013.
 * Was finally completed 08/06/2013.
 * SUL request to other projects submitted 08/08/2013.
 * Completed on most projects same day.
 * Request ignored by Commons and Wikiversity
 * Requests re-submitted 08/16/2013 ... ignored again.
 * Escalated to Stewards 08/25/2013 ... see below for what happened with that.
 * Roommate has new user experience from WP:HELL ... ultimately decides all native English people are liars, and decides to leave the country. Can't blame him, I probably would, too.
 * Commons processed more requests 08/28/2013, and ignored mine again! Submitted third request, which finally got acted on.
 * Still no action on Wikiversity.
 * Stewards finally take action on my request to them 08/29/2013, and leave me a snide comment about "patience" ... really? Over five and a half weeks for a one week process, and I'm the one who's being impatient?  Really??
 * ... then you wonder why I'm ready to give up on this nonsense?!?!
 * Wikimedia Foundation should be renamed Wikimolasses Basement!
