Damir Dokic twitter
Hi Donnie. How do you know whether the Damir Dokic twitter account is genuine? It looks a little hard to believe. Andjam (talk) 11:28, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I was going to remove it myself, but since it was already removed, never mind. Like all other wikipedians, I acted it out of instinct, trouble is I'm not much of a follower of tennis and still don't know much of it either. Donnie Park (talk) 11:57, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles that have been tagged for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated!

Honorific nicknames in popular music
Keep in mind this list is only meant for nicknames widely used in mass media. Conditions for inclusion (listed on the talk page) are the nickname must be recognized by major music publications, professional music critics, music encyclopedias or academic journals or widely used in major news publications on a regular basis (EX: MJ as King og Pop appears in every news article imaginable). I'd suggest always starting with google books first. If you look up Teen Queen of Pop only Debbie Gibson appears. The Bookkeeper  (of the Occult)  13:16, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi, you added two entries with foreign language sources. Can you provide a translation of the sources, since the convention on this article is that all sources are transparent?--''' SabreBD  (talk ) 19:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll ask somebody to translate it for you. Donnie Park (talk) 20:30, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

That's great - thanks. Obviously it might take a while.--''' SabreBD  (talk ) 20:53, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Lambo cat
Hi, is Giorgetto Giugiaro or Marcello Gandini been working for Lamborghini? I think they have only designed some ot their cars? --Typ932 T&middot;C 16:57, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
 * They worked on it in a freelance basis or via a contract of another company, I added it in because of their association with the brand (Giugiaro was also involved with the Miura) rather than that because they are employees as I assume that cat means even if it does not state so.

Articles for deletion/List of camera clubs in Ireland
Hi, just letting you know that an IP refactored your comment at this AfD and I've reverted the changes. Sometimes this happens when the original poster returns to touch up his comments and he forgets to sign in. So if the IP really was you, feel free to revert me to endorse the changes.

I just saw the AFD on this. Sorry I was a little late to it. I didn't really have any vested interest in the subject. I created the article based upon an articles for creation submission and it seemed to pass by a thin thread at the time. I was assuming that once up new sources would reveal themselves. Either way I don't think I'd have been able to add much to the debate.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 08:00, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Since you don't know the future of Top Gear, why do you insist of deleting it? Until the season ends. Ryou Hashimoto (talk) 03:03, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Did my discussion ever mention the future of Top Gear? I will tell you why I insist on deleting it, that car have only been in one episode and I doubt it will ever appear again, plus what is notable about it compared to other TV cars. Donnie Park (talk) 11:55, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Tagging of Barracuda atomic
I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Barracuda atomic. I do not think that Barracuda atomic fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because The context is clear: this is a mountain bike. That identifies the subject to the reader. What is lacking is much content and sources. I request that you consider not re-tagging Barracuda atomic for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page. You are, of course, free to tag the article with prod or nominate it at WP:AFD. DES (talk) 18:22, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I tagged it because it is too small to be an article, plus individual bicycles are not notable unless for a reason or fits within WP:NOTABILITY guidelines. Also no cheap full suspension bikes are notable, plus all MTB have 26 inch wheels, therefore I nominate it under A7, but then, I already have hit the nuke button. Well, never mind, well then admit it, all cheapy 21 gear full sus bikes are not notable, not for a good reason anyway as much as I know and would had been forgotten in a few years time, unless in the context of retro culture in decades time. Donnie Park (talk) 18:54, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Any of those might be good grounds for a Prod or AfD deletion, but none of them is suitable for a speedy. A7 quite specifically does not apply to bicycles or other products -- it is very intentionally limited to a quite narrow range of topics, and should not be used outside them. (Had it not been so limited it would NOT have obtained consensus -- i was part of those debates.) Most individual makes or models of bicycle are not notable, but some are. See Stub on small articles. "Too small" is a reason for expansion or improvement, not for deletion, surely not for speedy deletion. DES (talk) 19:07, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
