You doing okay?
Good to see your contribs list being up to date. You doing okay? I'm glad you're back in action. Today, I rescued two ridiculously bad articles from speedy deletion, and I was thinking of you as I did so. I am now an expert on a profane ventriloquist and a website designed for seven year old girls. Heh. Only on wikipedia. Glad you're here, Eco. Smiles and hugs and such.

Back on the farm
Hey Doug, I returned from my WikiBreak. One door closed rather abruptly (my failed RfA), but another opened unexpectedly (a movie audition that was successful, go figure). I just added a pair of new Ag articles for the WikiProject: Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (a redlinked title) and Daron Joffe (a bright young organic farming leader). More to follow. Hope all is well. Ecoleetage (talk) 00:34, 17 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Good to see you're back! Being an admin isn't all it's cracked up to be.  You're a damned good editor, whereas I do my share of copyediting but don't really write much – I do a lot of deleting and moving discussions and fixing cut and paste moves and commenting on policy, but I don't write articles.  Work on your core competency and try to get more articles to GA or FA status for now.  --Doug.(talk • contribs) 01:13, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

African cinema
Great work, great to see you back after your much needed break. I've done a fair bit of work on African cinema myself and created the film lists and Cinema of Kenya. Note. Use Category:Burkinabé films not Cinema of Burkina Faso. I'll make a cinema template to use in the articles. Also note List of Burkinabé films, if you could link the films on there and blue link a few that would be great. If you want a list of some notable Africa films that are missing see List of FESPACO award winners. Theres a good mix of countries in there. The Bald One     White cat 09:33, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Can it be a coicidence that the director of that film, Dani Kouyaté, his father, Sotigui Kouyaté, and his first film, Keïta! l'Héritage du griot were all DYKs by me? Great job on this--by the way, I recently started Ben Diogaye Beye, a Senegalese filmmaker and nominated it for DYK. As you can see, I recently received the 50 DYK medal. I'm trying to keep up with you! Your friend Eddy of the wiki[citation needed] 10:38, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Yes I know, its a good when things are connected too. Congrats also on your 50 DYK. One thing though note the diff on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alibi_Bye_Bye&diff=239105546&oldid=238941727 here]. Just needed a cast section which should appear on all articles and some tweaking to the categories. Other than that great new article!

Notice of request for deletion of editor :)
, the editor you are, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that you satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space. Your opinions on yourself are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit during the discussion but should not remove the nomination (unless you wish not to participate); such removal will not end the deletion discussion (actually it will). Thank you, and have a good sense of humor :).


 * No matter what happens, (you getting deleted and all), I'm seriously glad to see you back to your good form. I like what you do here, even the "wrong queue" stuff :-).  If, no strike that, when, you are giving your Oscar acceptance speech, I very much want you to say "and thank you to 'the Keeper of Wikipedia' for keeping that website sane".  I'll have an aneurysm and die a happy and fulfilled man.  You rock eco, don't let anyone convince you otherwise.  You are so much better off than us lowly, red-tape bound, bureaucracy entrenched, politically correct admins, honest to goodness.

Actually, I am reminded of the Leslie Bricusse-Anthony Newley song: "I'm gonna build a mountain, from a little hill /I'm gonna build a mountain, least I hope I will. / I'm gonna build a mountain, I'm gonna build it high / I don't know how Im gonna do it, only know I'm gonna try."

Re. RfB comments
Ecoleetage, I am glad you came to my talk page about this. I probably will not release your e-mails or allow access to them by third parties, as I do not want this situation to escalate and I do not wish to spoil your wiki-experience. However, I can no longer trust you, or even assume good faith on your part. What you did at my RfB, after the e-mails, was unimaginably ugly. Hús ö  nd  17:07, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I have withdrawn my comments and my participation from your RfB. It pains me to see that you repeated my RfA error by mistaking opinion and commentary on content for a personal attack.  I believe that my concerns were valid and I had a right, as a Wikipedia editor, to express why I felt there were problems with the RfB.  However, it was not a personal attack in any way, shape, or form, and I am genuinely sorry that you felt there was some malicious motive in my !vote.  The idea of hurting anybody is wholly antithetical to the "real" me -- I could vent over frustration, as anyone does. But to genuinely hurt anyone? If I were that type of person, I would have offed myself years ago. Ecoleetage (talk) 17:34, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I think, Husond, that it is rather unfair and ugly of you to say that you cannot trust Eco anymore. Eco's comments were fair and honest, and were valid no matter what the e-mails say. I am withdrawing my support from your RfB because of your badgering of perfectly valid opposes such as Eco and your blackmail. The word probably also concerns me.

Thanks. Just remember though that whatever you have done as implied above, I'm not up what was said, neither do I want to know, but you still remain a respectable editor in my book. It was unfortunate what happened, but some things don't work out and even the greatest of people sometimes say things out of context or that they later regret, we are ony human after all.

Grand Lodge of Virginia
On behalf of the Freemasonry Project, thank you for the stub. I especially like the fact that you cite more than just the GLV website (an all too common flaw for many articles on Grand Lodges). This is a key step towards establishing notability. I am sure that there are people who can help it grow... but don't wait for them. Keep researching, and add to it yourself. Again, thanks.

Star Wars marathon
Could you please elaborate as to why the article that I have created (which concerns a relevant subject) has been slapped with a notice? I feel deeply offended at this. --Bravo Plantation (talk) 15:50, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello! The article was tagged (not slapped – I’m not Moe Howard) because I felt it did not meet Wikipedia’s requirements for notability, particularly in regard to WP:RS. I could be mistaken, of course, which is why I put it up for AfD instead of trying to get it erased with a Speedy Delete tag.  With AfD, the community can provide consensus on the article’s merits. If you can find references to back your claims of notability, that will help immensely. Please don’t take offence – any fan of Bruce Forsyth and the Two Ronnies obviously has good judgment, so there is an excellent chance you will come out ahead. Cheers! Ecoleetage (talk) 16:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining :) --Bravo Plantation (talk) 16:03, 23 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey there, Mr Ecoleetage! Long time no... um... write?  I've edited the Star Wars marathon giving a couple of sources (from the BBC and Fox news among others) and wondered if you still wanted to proceed with the AfD?  Cheers.  --  JediLofty Talk to meFollow me 16:18, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I've added some more references to the Star Wars marathon mentioning the watch-all-the-films-together-on-DVD phenomenon as well as the official marathons. An interesting idea that came up from one site I researched on was to watch Episode IV, followed by Episode V, then to watch Episodes I, II and III as a flashback before finishing with Episode VI! --  JediLofty Talk to meFollow me 13:02, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Oliver J Bridge
As it happens it was a name I'd heard of, and a quick Google assured me that it was that guy and he is notable (BBC has references for example). But the first draft did barely assert notability so I don't think the tag was wrong – just a bit hasty maybe. I didn't even see it was you who'd placed the tag to be honest. No worries.

Warkop is a problem and I appreciate you are doing good work – but I have a sneaking suspicion that I might have been able to make it an article with valid N and V and RS item but might take longer than can be coped with in the Afd process – however if it has been through and keeps reapparing maybe it is not worth working on – just that there are so few around to actually defend any aspect of the indonesian porject at the moment – cheers SatuSuro 02:08, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

I was looking forward to one of those wrong queue jokes. :) On the FAC part: I probably did act a bit dickish at the FAC of 1964 Gabon coup d'etat because I thought my hard work was not being appreciated. I knew that there would be opposition because of Karanacs, even though we made up afterward and I struck my vote. However, I do think saying that I consider Wikipedia a MMOPRG and all of Badger Drink's oppose were unnecessary (yes i still do police civility:)) On a completely unrelated note could you weigh in at Featured article candidates/Paul Gondjout? the editorofthewiki (talk/contribs/editor review) 20:40, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Kissy Simmons
Hi Eco, I'm just curious re here. Which sources didn't you think were reliable? I can't find problems with any of them. Did you mean BroadwayWorld? There's no issue there so as I can tell. Hope you're having a good weekend playing in the rain! TravellingCari 21:10, 28 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Ahh I disagree. This is why I also tend to stay out of Broadway discussions. BroadwayWorld is often the main reliable source for casting and show announcements. While news can be submitted, there is editorial control (apart from forums, of course). Playbill I think you have only hald of it. While the shows provide the center pages, they have no control over the articles. Each show only owns ~8 pages per issue for their show while Playbill the magazine owns and controls the rest of the real estate. Show, casting, etc. announcements may be included there but they're written by Playbill staff so there is oversight. TravellingCari  00:52, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Gotcha, I do't know too much about the Hollywood side, I'm far more familiar with the New York media. While there is some COI inherent in the industry, I think there's enough neutrality. I think a lot of bit actors are dubious but I let it go. It's like professors, and schools. Sometimes it's easier. TravellingCari  01:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Incorrect deletion summary
Yes, I definitely understand that you didn't have anything to do with that article, and were the person reporting it for deletion. The problem with the summary was caused by the software, and probably happens occasionally here. Thanks for reporting the real creator of the article.

Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you! I'm jealous that you have a flexible schedule; I certainly don't have that during the week. I look forward to working with you, though I will probably be limiting myself to community and coordinator discussions for the next few months. If you want to get involved right away as a coordinator, you may be interested in checking out the 0.7 announcement Nehrams2020 was discussing with me right above your first message to me.

I'm sure Girolamo will have some main points of discussion in the coming days (he's busy for the next few). Right now, I think the main thing our project should be focusing on is the 0.7 release, which Girolamo and I have been working on fine-tuning. We're trying to set up a drive to get the project's members to work on choosing reliable revisions for the release, but we just need to hammer out the details first.

I helped my friend EnjoiNico (a real, live friend whom I know in the physical world) get an article he was slaving over to GA status: No Age. Other than that, my edits have been inconsequential. I've was was working on Tropical Storms and hurricanes around the time you left, but that phase went poof. Hopefully, I'll get in the swing/loop of writing again. (I haven't had a DYK since June!)

ICER Brands, LLC
Dmanzor (talk) 14:55, 3 October 2008 (UTC)HI, I am curious as to why you deleted the "ICER Brands, LLC" Page? It includes the histories longevity, and credible companies that the they provide marketing and Product development serrvices for. It is relevant because the brands which they work with are large international brand (i.e- Apple Bottoms.. which doies 300mil + at retail in the US, as well as millions more intyernationally). ICER owns the sole licensing rights to that company, as well as others. The article was written in a very neutral context as well. Please tell me what else needs to be done to repost this page without it being deleted.

Thanks

Dmanzor (talk) 15:11, 3 October 2008 (UTC) Hi i had completely revised the article, and there was nothing about it that sounded as if it were advertising. I simply wanted to put the information about the company- the history, what it does, who they work with, etc. I will repost it now, I would appreciate it if you could please take a look, and see what you can do in order to help me avoid having it deleted, and remove the flag for "speddy deletion"

Thanks!

Dmanzor (talk) 17:06, 3 October 2008 (UTC) hi my Icer Brands page was deleted again! I inlcuded factual information, history, relevance, and external sources to back up stuff. BUt it is listed under speedy deletion still, and as such, everytime i post it gets deleted. How can i avoid this??

Dmanzor (talk) 16:17, 6 October 2008 (UTC) Hi I still havent received a reply from you regarding what to do about my page that you deleted. You were very quick in deleting... but I have written you regarding your deletion a few days ago and you have yet to offer me any advice. Im sure that your intent is just to make wikipedia a great informative environment, so please respond to my threads, as I would like to repost my ICER Brands, LLC page, in the proper manner so that you allow it to stay up, and remove the "speedy deltion tag"

thanks for your help.

Hi E, thanks for welcoming me. I want to be able to "add" an article in my userspace so I can edit, modify, beat up, and spruce, without having to get scorn and all that stuff. Is there any way a copy of "internet cafe" can be copied to my userspace for me to play with, but annexed so its not in "my" personal details but rather, a separate link? That way I can obsess over billions of edits without having billions peer over my shoulder and re-edit and squander my time hopelessly until I've finished it properly. Naturally, it will take me many months to do. Something like: User:Cafejunkie/Cafe and I can copy contents of article to there... Please advise how you/I can do this.

Re:Protect request
As you left a message on his talk page, I'm inclined to see what he will do in the future. Also, you might want to explain your edits in your edit summaries. As it stands, it looks bitey and/or uncivil. — sephiroth bcr  <sup style="font-family:Verdana;">( converse ) 04:58, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I am confused by your comments that my attempt to maintain the proper contents of Template:OrsonWelles are "bitey and/or uncivil." Can you please be specific...just what part of my communications are bitey and/or uncivil?  I have not been rude to the editor who is repeatedly claiming that a film directed by Orson Welles does not belong in a template devoted to films directed by Orson Welles.  I re-reviewed my message and it seems obvious that I politely explained why he is in error in repeatedly removing the film from the template.  Thank you.Ecoleetage (talk) 12:17, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * PS I also re-reviewed my edit summaries and there is absolutely nothing "bitey and/or uncivil." I would appreciate an explanation of your comments. Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 12:30, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Explaining why you are adding the film back in is constructive. An edit summary with nothing past "Filming Othello" gives the impression of you not being open to the opinions of the other editor (who put forth why he believes it shouldn't be included). Per WP:BRD, if you're reverted, stop, then discuss. I'm not saying you intended this. I'm just pointing out how this comes across. — sephiroth bcr  <sup style="font-family:Verdana;">( converse ) 02:33, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, calling the edits "bitey and/or uncivil" seems, on its own terms, bitey and/or uncivil -- please assume good faith before making harsh statements. Anyone who is even vaguely familiar with Orson Welles' films would realise the omission of the director's last completed film is strange -- and the argument that removing it because it is a non-fiction feature makes no sense whatsoever. Thank you. Ecoleetage (talk) 02:41, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I am assuming good faith. Hence why I stated that you probably didn't intend this. Remember that you're talking to a fairly new editor (who apparently has been around quite a while but hasn't edited that much), so always use your edit summaries to explain why you're doing something. If the issue is contentious, then explain in full what you are doing. Again, just putting "Filming Othello" as your edit summary isn't constructive in that kind of situation. Yes, his argument isn't very persuasive, but in that situation, turn to discussion before adding it back in. — sephiroth bcr  <sup style="font-family:Verdana;">( converse ) 02:47, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The fact remains that I left a detailed explanation on his Talk Page (which you already know). The Edit Summary does not offer space to explain in depth why omitting a film directed by Orson Welles from a Template devoted to films directed by Orson Welles is illogical. And my explanation, I should stress, was polite (two uses of "please" and a "thank you").  Although you are explaining yourself after the fact, your initial observation was harsh and unpleasant (though I really don't care, as I am planning to rewrite the article on Welles' film of "Macbeth" -- who allowed that travesty to stay online?)Ecoleetage (talk) 02:54, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

RFA comments
Your RfA comments strike me as... odd. I suppose that you're trying to be funny? Only I don't get the joke. Axl ¤  [Talk]  18:10, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello! To answer your observation: my RfA comments only came about because I normally arrived at those discussions at the midway point and felt I was contributing nothing of value by repeating the same “Support – great candidate” comments that 25 or 30 other editors said.  The “wrong queue” comments came about just to be different, not to be funny.  There is no “joke,” per se – it is just a small revolt against conformity.  Of course, I only do that when I support a candidate – I never do that with oppose or neutral input, because I need to be serious in explaining why I cannot get behind a candidacy.

RE: AfD
Everyone has the right to question the arguments of others. After all, the whole AfD process is based on people grilling me on my opinion that the article should be deleted, isn't it? Master of Puppets <sub style="color:#7d7d7d">Call me MoP! :)  23:36, 8 October 2008 (UTC)


 * See, that's the thing; people shouldn't be voting on who's saying what. They should be voting on whether the article should stay or not. Its counter-productive if somebody feels that an article should stay because someone else thinks it shouldn't.
 * Also, the problem is that many people are making invalid points, and I'm afraid that the closing admin will just skim over the votes and do a tally instead of actually read what's being said. So far, I think it'll be a delete result if everything is read. That's not the purpose, of course; I'd like to help people learn about article standards at the same time. Master of Puppets  <sub style="color:#7d7d7d">Call me MoP! :)  23:58, 8 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I'll check out the sock case. As for the debate, I do respect all opinions present; however, I choose to question them. I guess I feel that is more productive. I don't worry about my "cause" because I don't really have one. Oh, and thanks for speaking your mind about this by the way! :) Master of Puppets  <sub style="color:#7d7d7d">Call me MoP! :)  04:57, 9 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm not trying to sway the closing admin's opinion, but rather flesh out a debate. Policy shouldn't be the final deciding factor in every matter of conflict on Wikipedia, because you can't blanket 2.5 million articles with only a handful of policies. Rather, the editors should call the shots, with policy only being a guideline. That's why I'm questioning some keep votes (and delete votes too, mind you); to encourage some discussion. I realise some people may find it intrusive. Whatever it is, I do respect their opinions, and 99% of the time we end up having some great insights given.
 * Also, good call explaining our ability to discuss our opinions! :) Cheers, Master of Puppets  <sub style="color:#7d7d7d">Call me MoP! :)  16:24, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I often comment on votes, even if they're going my way, if they're incorrectly explained. And yeah, I've written a few articles, though only one whole one. I usually do stub and citing work. Master of Puppets  <sub style="color:#7d7d7d">Call me MoP! :)  00:15, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

All is for the best, in this, the best of all possible worlds
One of the advantages of not having many supporters at your RFA is that there are fewer people to thank at the end. Thanks for your support and your willingness to look at my complete record. I'm going to try to interpret this resounding defeat as a statement that I should choose my words more carefully in the future, and remember that every statement I make gets recorded forever, just waiting to get carefully transcribed onto my next RFA. I would go insane if I believed that it was repudiation of what I truly meant: that no editor should consciously and willfully ignore guidelines and policies, and editors that repeatedly do so should not be rewarded for or supported in doing so.

I'm sure I'll get back to full speed editing soon, because, after all,, every day, and in every way, I am getting better and better.—Kww(talk) 05:37, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Guideline to film articles
Hi I noticed that you don't add cast/character sections in film articles and also I;ve seen you remove original film posters in favour of recent DVD covers. Please follow the guidelines to film to improve your articles. Cheers and keep up the good work! The Bald One     <small style="color:Black;">White cat 16:20, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

I don't know why you thought it necessary to remove my good faith message as if I was attacking you. I agree about duplicating information. I think it would be best to have a proper cast section which includes cast and characters rather than the list in the infobox but I guess that is the custom. The reaosn why I said about it as there is actually a WP:Films template "Films needing cast section" in the way there is maintenence project tags for articles that need images or plot sections which means editors are working through them to add them. I believe you have a strong point, which could be addressed to the project of the need, or rather lack of a need for double cast listings.

There is also much to be said about the double imdb link which was recently addressed at WP:Film. In the same way we should drop one or the other I think. Take care The Bald One      <small style="color:Black;">White cat 17:25, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Taxoboxes?
Doug, I never heard back from you regarding the taxoboxes for the Ag WikiProject. What exactly do you need done? Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 22:04, 8 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Eco, sorry to not get back to you sooner, I was finishing up an Army class and now I'm back home but shortly off again. Basically, there are no taxoboxes for domestic animals other than dogs, cats, and horses.  See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Agriculture/Archive 1 and Taxobox in particular, as well as the reference to breed boxes on WikiProject Agriculture under "Guidelines" and under "Infoboxes" which is a subheading of "Templates".  We were discussing a plan at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Agriculture/Infobox nearly a year ago but it fizzled.  The basic problem is that Cow should have a real Tree of Life style taxobox showing it as domesticated, but Galloway cattle should have a breed box whith emphasis on different issues altogether.  I'll be glad to discuss it with you and work on it.  But I don't have time right now to take the lead as I'm getting ready for an extended trip abroad. Together with this I'd like to see us implement the change discussed at one point on the MOS as well as the AG project regarding changing breed list names to get rid of the word "lists", but I'll explain that later.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 02:11, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Water Fuel Museum
Hi, you recently !voted to keep the article Water Fuel Museum in an Afd. I'm working on cleaning up the article and dealing with unsourced content, and was hoping that you could drop by and provide some input. TallNapoleon (talk) 05:22, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree about the exhibits; one of the reasons I asked was because I did not want to get into an edit war about them. I personally agree that this would best be served as a stub, but what really needs to happen first of all is that some kind of consensus needs to be reached on the talk page, so I don't really have a timeline yet. What can't be allowed is for the page to turn into some kind of advertisement for water fuel, which is, to put it mildly, very dubious science.


 * One other note--the page's creator is Kywfm--which looks like an acronym for Kentucky Water Fuel Museum, especially since page creation is his only contribution. It appears that one of the big editors on the page is very devoted to his POV about the subject matter. So, I think that stubbification is almost certainly the best route, due to the COI here, and to prevent the page from being overrun by POV. TallNapoleon (talk) 18:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Inre THIS, you are no doubt correct... which is why I am seeking sage advice. Something is more than fishy that the article started out as sourced and notable and passed an AfD and then was reduced to a few badly sourced non-notable bits of trivia and then was sent back to AfD without any regard for it having been deconstructed first.... and then smacked by a user account that never existed before that day. As you have ideas suggestions how I may point out the flaws in the AfD, please let me know. Thanks  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:03, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Having a credit rating ≠ being notable
Hi Ecoleetage

Happy to let the merits of the Al-Mawarid Bank S.A.L.&lrm; article be judged by consensus. However, I thought you might care to know a little more about the credit rating process. Credit ratings agencies review the creditworthiness of legal entities and specific securities whose creditworthiness they believe their subscribers will care about, or that they are paid to rate. There is nothing particularly notable about having a credit rating. Fitch, according to this brochure, rates: The belief that all of these entities are automatically notable because of their rating does not seem supportable to me. Do you think it is?

Digitally Imported AfD undo
Hi Ecoleetage! I requested a copy of the Digitally Imported article which was deleted twice via AfD, second time nominated by you on grounds of not establishing notability (which I agree with at the state the article was in at the time). I've worked on the article and removed all the advertising, as well as adding third-party sources to establish notability. If at all possible, I would very much appreciate it if you could give the article a once-over and see if you find it a suitable article. It's currently located here: User:Twinzor/Sandbox/Digitally Imported. My intention is not to canvass, but to just see if other editor's think the page is good enough to be moved to mainspace. If, however, you don't have the time or interest to review the article, I completely understand that. And of course, if you think the article still has issues, pointing those out would be very helpfull! Thanks, and happy editing! — Twinzor Say hi! - Do I suck or rock? 12:21, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Man's Fate
Were we to create independent articles for every film which was cancelled in pre-production, we'd probably have nearly as many articles to add as we currently have! It's a very common industry occurrence, and per our standard notability rules, we generally keep information on unproduced films in a subsection of the source material's article. I'd recommend discussing this with Erik and Steve, though, since they are more active in this part of the guidelines, and I'd certainly be curious to hear their thoughts on the matter. Would that be fair? Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 12:48, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * You're confusing two identical but different terms. "A production" is a common term in the industry synonymous with a film being production, while "the production stage" is a term used to denote principal photography. By definition, pre-production lasts from when financing is secured until when the filming begins, and therefore, this film died in pre-production. Again, I would encourage you to seek out Erik and Steve and see if they have different opinions on this, since they often are involved in these questions regarding merging. Thanks, Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 13:00, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Kara Johnson
The article's a mess and reads like a fansite but claims that she's an "American Idol" contestant. This is an assertion of notability. I would recommend removing the A7 and sending it to AFD. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 03:04, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I changed the tag to G3 and cited the hoax in the subject line. Ecoleetage (talk) 03:11, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Arrica Rose
Hi Ecoleetage. I declined the speedy, because the CSD A7 criteria do not actually require a subject to be notable, they just say that "to avoid speedy deletion an article does not have to prove that its subject is notable, just give a reasonable indication of why it might be notable." In my opinion, the various claims that the article made were sufficient to indicate why she might be notable.

That said, I agree that the actual notability of her is questionable, so I reckon that AfD was the right call to make. Best wishes, Lankiveil (speak to me) 23:45, 24 October 2008 (UTC).

Washburn Elementary School
Hello my friend, it is always great to hear from you. I find the Washburn Elementary School stub interesting. When the United States invaded Puerto Rico one of the first things that the new government attempted in its process of Americanization of the island was to eliminate "Spanish", they went as far as to changing the islands name to "Porto Rico". The process did not work and "Spanish" was reinstated as the peoples language. I find it interesting that there are still private institutions with the same agenda in mind.

It would be great if the history of the institution were included in the stub, thereby making it a little more difficult for the deletionists in our project to nominate it for deletion. Tony the Marine (talk) 17:58, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Random Irrelevance
For whatever it's worth, before the brouhaha I meant to compliment your choice of name, if as I suspect it's a play on "decolletage" and other words.

 * Wow, the story was even more random than I thought... random is good. ^_^ "dark Arima" was a nickname I picked up in the anime con circuit, from Arima Soichiro's apparent alter ego in Kare Kano.

 * Can't say I've seen that one... I mostly tend to watch shoujo anime like Kare Kano, though I've seen my share of action/adventure as well.

 * Never mind I found it.:)

Question: Your version states "It has been determined there were cases where entire communities worked together in the rescue of Jews, despite knowledge by the community members of the danger to their own lives (pictured) [1] This claim is sourced to a Paulsson article. There are other issues further on, but let's start with the lead. Boodlesthecat Meow? 18:10, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * What statement in the Paullson article supports that claim? Boodlesthecat Meow? 18:10, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The sentence refers to a picture of Polish farmers who had been executed by the Einsatzgruppen. What source do you have that indicates these executions were related to rescue of Jews?
 * Also, what is the source for the statement "working independently of each other and without directions from the London-based Polish government-in-exile"?
 * Listen, Boodlesthecat (can I call you Boodles, or Boo, or Mr. Cat?) -- I have to go lay wires for a couple of hours and I won't be online. If you want to work with me in fixing that thorny article, here's what I will ask: Go through the draft of the article (and, yes, it is a draft) and point out every problem you find.  I will then take your list, return to the draft, and correct every error that is cited.  How does that sound?  Thanks! Ecoleetage (talk) 18:14, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The issues with the lead are not necessarily "errors", as I said, they are questions (and by raising them, I am working "with" you.) If you can cite where in the source you used the above claims are supported, then there is no error. getting the lead down correctly impacts the whole article, so there is no point in going through the whole article until a supported thesis can be nailed down. If the claim "entire communities worked together in the rescue of Jews" is not supported, that is going to strongly impact the tenor of the rest of the article. Boodlesthecat Meow? 18:36, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I re-edited the lead and removed the photo -- your points were well taken. Let me know where to proceed. Thanks! Ecoleetage (talk) 21:19, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Where in the Paulsson article that is used as a ref is the statement "a number of Polish villages and communities worked together in the rescue of Polish Jews from the Nazi occupation" supported? Boodlesthecat Meow? 21:22, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I will go back to the Paulsson text to reconfirm this is correct when I am able to devote proper time to researching the subject (I am just taking a break at the moment from a construction project). Please continue with your editorial suggestions. Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 21:28, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Do you have the Paulsson article? Boodlesthecat Meow? 21:54, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The article is difficult to find; instead I recommend a much easier and better work – his newer book, published by Yale, that covers the topics of the article: "Secret City: The Hidden Jews of Warsaw, 1940–1945 " . There are many sources to support a general claim (about Polish communities saving Jews): Paulsson book; another book by Nechama Tec, Piotrowski , Pawlikowski – this one mentions plural convents, btw... once the article is restored it will be easier to verify/expand such claims. PS. I can't find proof that the first two images used in the article were related to punishment for sheltering Jews; the third one is (and I think it will be possible to find others).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 22:41, 6 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Note that the sentence in question is "a number of Polish villages and communities worked together in the rescue of Polish Jews from the Nazi occupation." Paulsson discusses instances where individuals and some organizations worked together with Jews, it's not a source for "a number of Polish villages and communities worked together in the rescue of Polish Jews from the Nazi occupation"; Tec discusses instances of support for Jews in the face of hostility from Polish communities,and she asks at one point "What prompted these people to risk their lives in an undertaking that showed little promise of community support?"; Piotrowskilikewise does not supprt the claim "a number of Polish villages and communities worked together in the rescue of Polish Jews from the Nazi occupation," and the cases of the convents are examples of just that, rather than support for the general claim. Boodlesthecat Meow? 00:35, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Communities only in rare instances worked with other communities. The point is not that they often collaborated with each other – which is not the case – but that they were many. I'd suggest repharsing the sentence to avoid this confusion: "a number of Polish communities (villages and others) attempted to rescue Polish Jews during the Nazi occupation".--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 01:12, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * And where are the sources indicating "a number of Polish communities (villages and others) attempted to rescue Polish Jews during the Nazi occupation"? As opposed to individuals or groups within them? Boodlesthecat Meow? 03:20, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I will fix the citation as time allows, either later today or over the weekend. Again, let's please move on to the remainder of the article.  Thank you. Ecoleetage (talk) 11:27, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you note
Dear Eco Lee Tage and Dear Piotrus,

I'd like to commend you both on your exemplary work at bringing the article Rescue of Jews by Polish communities during the Holocaust back to its proper place in main-space. I would also like to thank those who took their time to deal with its challenges in a positive, community building manner.

Please be aware that the painting of the Polish nation black is a popular past-time among many a Holocaust ideologues and so the groundbreaking effort of trying to present the full picture here in Wikipedia can be heartrending. I will not dignify with links those writers who claim that there was only a handful of rescuers in all of WWII Poland, but I do have them on my hard-drive to confirm my words. I’m sure there are also those who make a good living as educators by purporting such claims.

In contrast, the editorial effort of Wikipedians like yourself originates from a genuine thirst for knowledge, and it is also free of charge. It is however, not free from morally and psychologically damaging clashes with Wikipedians hidden behind monikers and pushing old stereotypes. That’s why I chose to distance myself from political spin off developing in talk, because for me it was the article that mattered: a collection of facts readily available, presented against the barrage of loaded messages regurgitated online by ignorant bigots. I'm not interested in killing time by bickering with phantoms anyway.

I’m very busy in real life right now, and will remain so for the next week. However, I intent to go back to this article and improve on it further time permitting. For now, please accept my sincere thanks for all you’ve done. --<b style="font-family:Papyrus; color:darkblue;">Poeticbent</b> <small style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#FF88AF;border:1px solid #DF2929;padding:0.0em 0.2em;">talk 19:31, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

NYC Meetup: You are invited!
In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, finalize and approve bylaws, interact with representatives from the Software Freedom Law Center, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the June meeting's minutes and the September meeting's minutes).

We'll also review our recent Wikis Take Manhattan event, and make preparations for our exciting successor Wikipedia Loves Art! bonanza, being planned with the Brooklyn Museum for February.

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and (weather permitting) hold a late-night astronomy event at Columbia's telescopes.

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

To keep up-to-date on local events, you can also join our mailing list. This has been an automated delivery by BrownBot (talk) 22:10, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Wisdoms RFA
"he's done 2,500 flawless CSD tags ". Please re-read my nomination. I expresly did not say anything like that. I respect your input, but please don't mis-represent my words. Pedro : Chat  22:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Pedro : Chat  22:36, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

RfA. Sorry if I instigated a slight bit of drama by questioning your oppose. You, of course, have the right to oppose the candidate. I let my "vehement" support get in the way here, totally my mistake. I really shouldn't have done it; doing so only hurts Wisdom's chance. Again, sorry.

Question
On this article, Acetylcholinesterase, an editor has put in a link (in the actual article) to another Wiki. I was generally under the impression that that is a no-no. However, since I'm not 100% sure I wanted to ask before I removed it or something. Cheers, RockManQ  (talk) 23:39, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks. Cheers, RockManQ  (talk) 23:46, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
