Moved your message
I moved the message you had posted on my talk page about your Proposed deletion of List of Terrestrial Fibre Optic Cable Projects in Africa to the talk page of the person who created the article, which weren't me. I think you were in the midst of prop'ing the article while I was in the moving it (for proper title capitalization reasons), and thus it ended up on my page. If for some reason you really wanted it on my page rather than on the article creator's page, let me know. --Nat Gertler (talk) 03:23, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Design the Skyline
Thanks for requesting protection for Design the Skyline, I didn't even know the vandalism on that article (which was just starting) could be eligible to have the page protected. But anyway, I'm here to tell you this: I'm not sure if you're familiar with the band, but they're the case of a high amount of criticism in the same way Rebecca Black was so the article may need to be indefinitely protected once that wears off. It's almost a guarantee that vandalism will shoot through the roof for that page. • GunMetal Angel  02:18, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * When the protection fades on the 15th, if the vandalism continues it'll be protected for a longer period of time so no worries. I'll keep an eye on it.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:20, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for keeping it watchlisted. Now to get down to business: although their music video may have been absolutely dreadful (which brought all this worldwide attention to the band), I heard their new album and it's actually pretty good, but alas, many still like to stick to hating something for some reason no matter what because that's just how people think. Just like Rebecca Black, she released a single everyone hated and then she releases a pretty alright song and she still gets criticism. It makes no sense, but yeah, I'm just trying to point out that articles like hers and this band will be forever haunted by vandals on here. • GunMetal Angel  07:09, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes it will probably be vandalized extensively, but articles aren't protected preemptively as far as I know.

rm 'close paraphrasing' hat on Padmanabhaswamy Temple
I see you had hatted the Padmanabhaswamy Temple article with close paraphrasing. Your comment for the following edit was "rm copyright violation, article tagged as who knows how much else is in here." It sounds like you suspect, but don't have evidence, we are dealing with copyvios.

I removed the hatting as it seems you corrected one copyvio and will WP:AGF as far as the source of other parts of the article. I have not had time recently to pay attention to this article. I'd been thinking of simply reverting 100% of the recent edits unless they included citations. --Marc Kupper&#124;talk 07:24, 31 August 2011 (UTC)


 * That's fine, I went through a significant portion of the article looking for copyright violations before adding the tag and removed one paragraph or so. The week prior there was an IP editor or two that added some as well that I removed.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 14:23, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Did you read the BRD page?
The page says it is a guideline and not a policy. My edits about Carrier's writings most definitely are neutral. Content on his own website, which is what I used as a source, shows beyond a reasonable doubt he likes to promote anti-religion propaganda. He's not a reliable resource. My edits about Hitler and Indo-European culture are quite reliable too.75.72.35.253 (talk) 21:03, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, but it's not my opinion and is quite neutral. It is a fact that he promotes propaganda. Look up the definition of propaganda and read the content he has written for yourself before making such outrageous claims about what I have written.75.72.35.253 (talk) 21:19, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Denial of changes to male genital mutilation/circumcision page
Thanks for your comments of the 4th Sept regarding the above page. I must confess to being extremely surprised by them however. From a quick glance at the female genital mutilation/circumcision page you will note that not only is the header of the page listed as "female genital mutilation" but also that the page refers repeatedly to it as such throughout. A study of the male page on the same subject, however, reveals the exact opposite. Not only does the header of the page not even refer to the subject as also being known by many "male genital mutilation", the use of this term would appear to be prohibited throughout the whole article. This would appear to be an extremely prejudicial, biased and sexist double-standard. There is a overwhelming amount of evidence as to the often extremely harmful nature of male genital mutilation/circumcision; in fact many medical practitioners have openly stated that they see little difference between male and female genital mutilation. To refuse to allow any edits that include this term on the grounds that that it constitutes personal analysis and POV pushing would appear to be non-sensical in the extreme. Similarly, the statement in the first paragraph of the page that "Circumcision reduces the risk of HIV infection in heterosexual populations" would appear to be breathtakingly misleading as there is a welter of medical evidence available that utterly refutes this assertion. As such the refusal to allow well referenced edits that challenge this assertion would, with respect, appear to be a simple matter of censorship.

I would be most obliged to receive your comments as to whether you will now review this position.

Many thanks & kinds regards

 * I understand your position and can see how that would seem like a double standard. However, Wikipedia uses the most common name for article titles (WP:COMMONNAME). For example, the article on Bill Clinton is not titled by his legal name William Jefferson Clinton because he is not referred to as such by a vast majority of references. The same case applies here, as the vast majority of scholarly sources refer to the act of "female circumcision" as FGM, and so the title reflects that. The article's name was changed within the last few months after extensive discussion (here if you are interested). Now, on circumcision the converse applies. Because the vast majority of sources refer to it as circumcision and not genital mutilation, that is the title we use. This subject has come up dozens and dozens of times over the years on the talk page of the article and the reasoning is explained in more depth at Talk:Circumcision/Archive_67.

Deletion of Theta Tau Epsilon page
Dear Falcon-

Apparently you have deleted the page I created for my fraternity, Theta Tau Epsilon? All material on the page is owned by my fraternity. The writing is ours and the graphics belong to our fraternity as well -- so there should be no copyright issue. I made a mistake in saying the copy came from Bemidji State College -- which it does -- but we gave it to them for their website. The copyright belongs to us. Please consider putting the page back up again?

Thanks

Lanewsguy (talk) 21:25, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I didn't delete the page outright, but redirected it to the article on the college. I wasn't aware of the copyright issue until now, but you should look into WP:COPYRIGHT for information on how to donate copyrighted materials as copyrighted text isn't allowed due to the way the Creative Commons licensing works. By all means add your fraternity as a section on the article for the college, where it would be more appropriate. The text of your article still exists here.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 21:30, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

I don't understand. Why is my fraternity not appropriate for Wikipedia, when any number of other fraternities and sororities are? Why are you willing to discriminate against my fraternity by saying it only deserves a sub-section under another topic? Also, I don't think you understand that there is no copyright issue for any of the material, as it all originated with my fraternity and we are the ones putting up the page. Again, I ask you to reconsider putting our page back up. This is just plain wrong. Ron Olsen Theta Tau Epsilon Fraternity Lanewsguy (talk) 21:36, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

If you are going to ban our fraternity from Wikipedia, then you should ban all other fraternities as well. Correct? Ron Olsen Theta Tau Epsilon Lanewsguy (talk) 21:38, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I understand where you are coming from, let me explain it more understandably. I redirected it because from what the article stated your fraternity is not one with multiple chapters and a national base, but one chapter at one college. Thus, it would be more appropriate to have it as a section on the college it is a part of, until such a time that it has significant enough content to warrant a separate article. This is not denigrating your fraternity but is simply complying with our guidelines for the notability of organizations, and having it as a section on the college's article would get more exposure anyways. Secondly, even if you own the copyright for the material in question, there is a process you have to go through for legal reasons that gives Wikipedia permission to use it. The steps for doing so are described at Donating_copyrighted_materials. Thirdly, editing articles about which you are closely affiliated is generally discouraged. Finally, I am not an administrator, so you may revert my redirect if you so desire, but I can't promise that another editor won't tag it for deletion instead of a redirect. I hope this clears up the confusion.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 21:47, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Well then, you'll have to take down the Skull & Bones page, won't you? They're a small organization at just one University also. And you'll need to remove every fraternity and sorority without a national affiliation. Right? I think you are just plain wrong on this. I will go back and try and figure out how to redirect the article and "take my chances with another editor."

Ron Olsen Theta Tau Epsilon — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lanewsguy (talk • contribs) 21:53, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * No, Skull & Bones would not be deleted, as it meets the criteria of notability, which are outlined in the link in my above reply. Specifically, "A company, corporation, organization, school, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. A single independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization." -- your fraternity doesn't meet that qualification, and thus the redirect. I recommend reading a few of the links on the welcome message on User talk:Lanewsguy if you need help with editing. I wouldn't readd the copyrighted text without following the steps I linked above however, as it will lead to the article being deleted outright. Using your website as a source without directly copying the text would be a better way of going about it.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 21:59, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Querry
Hey Falcon, u proposed deletion of the page Nishu Nursery and Kothari Convent which I created yesterday. And the reason you gave for it is that it is a non notable school. I can assure you that its a very renowned school of that city. Obviously you may not have heard anything about it, but it would be a very useful page for the students studying there. And I would be very soon uploading lot of information about that school including some of its photographs.

If still you have any kinda doubt about that page or the school, please write to me on my talk page.

thank you..!!!

"AD"...
I'm confused; I don't see why being consistent -- putting AD in front of a date -- is a bad idea. The Manual of Style says it can be either in front or behind the date. In the article is was both ways, I made it consistent.

That said, putting "AD" after the date makes no sense; neither does "Xth century AD."

If "Xth century of the Christian Era" is not acceptable, then simply go with "Xth century." — Preceding unsigned comment added by MartinFox (talk • contribs) 02:09, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

A Hope for Home
Hey Falcon, I need help editing A Hope for Home's article. I created it all by myself and I need someone of your expertise to help me prevent it from being deleted and get their album covers on their album articles. Thank you.MatthewCJones (talk) 00:15, 12 September 2011 (UTC)


 * It's not tagged for deletion at the moment, so you're fine for now. Someone tagged it for speedy deletion but I contested it, and then the same editor prodded it which is a less strict form of deletion that anyone can contest. It might be listed at WP:AFD which is the last method it could be deleted by, but would be subject to debate by other editors to see whether or not it passed the general notability criteria or the notability criteria for bands. Regarding the album covers, general image use policies are here. You just need to add the appropriate non-free image use license to the file pages. How to do so is described at Non-free_use_rationale_guideline.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 00:19, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Record Collecting
Hi Falcon8765

You recently reverted a couple of links added to Record collecting. I absolutely agree with removing vinylrecordsearch, as it is a blatantly commercial site, and this site has been removed many times over. (Is there a way to blacklist a url?). However, 78rpmcommunity is a non-commercial link which aids in further understanding of the article topic. I didn't add this in the first place, and I don't want to add it back in without hearing why you think this is an inappropriate link. Given that I'm no real expert on Wiki external link protocol, I'd really like to hear your thoughts on the subject. Thanks! 78.26 (talk) 01:40, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Any Reason you sent two warnings for ONE dit to the Trail of Blood and Tears????
Who is your supervisor? I need to escalate my complaint to them. You obviosly do not know or respect the differences between historical Facts and personal opinion. The Trail of Blood and Tears is the Historically Accurate name for the Indian Removal of 1830.

I Corrected the name twice and was given TWO level 2 warnings by YOU for filling out Wiki's own request as to "WHY DID YOU MAKE THESE CHANGES" Why does Wkipedia ask "WHY DID YOU MAKE THESE CHANGES" if all they are going to do is allow power hungry folks to reprimand people for stating WHY they have made the immediate changes?!

Here are a few of Many references for the True Historically Accurate name "The Trail Of Blood And Tears"

1.) http://www.ex@miner.com/foreign-policy-in-baltimore/prayers-held-for-independence-of-balochistan-from-pakistan-iran-u-s-church

9th Paragraph: "The A.F.B. activist recalled the atrocities meted out to the Native Americans in United States two centuries ago in the Trail of Blood and Tears of Cherokee Indians, the Sand Creek Massacre of November 29, 1864 and the massacre of the Yuki of Northern California (1856-1860). "The situation in Balochistan today is an exact replica of those sad chapters of U.S. history and you can help us stop this," the A.F.B. activist urged the gathering."

2.) http://www.dailycabal.com/2008/09/a-quiet-trail-of-blood-and-tears/ "A Quiet Trail of Blood and Tears" by Ken Brady

3.) http://www.nowpublic.com/world/open-letter-native-americans-please-help-baluchistan#ixzz1ZDNOLmvE 2nd Paragraph: "A.F.B. members Rashid Baloch and Malik Baloch on Thursday drew a parallel between the trail of blood and tears of the Native Americans to the gruesome happenings in Baluchistan, where the Baluch are engaged in a heroic struggle to regain their statehood."

Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. Inks.LWC (talk) 18:01, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello Falcon8765. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know however, regarding :, that tagging articles for speedy deletion moments after creation as lacking context (CSD A1), content (CSD A3) and articles created through the Article Wizard, is too fast. It's best to wait at least 10 - 15 minutes for more content to be added, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), pure vandalism (G3), and copyright violations (G12) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks. → Σ  τ  c. 23:47, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Was trying to add myself as an alumni to Carver's page. I started there when the school was CVT, helped it transform to CST and then CCAT.

If you can put me back in, I'd appreciate it. Teacher was Chick West, Multi-media Communications.

Douglas Smith (1993 Graduate and Student Teacher in 1994), is an experienced graphic designer and works for a major marketing agency in Maryland overseeing advertising strategy, creative design and digital marketing. Douglas helped get Carver started by designing the original school logo which appeared on all marketing material and blue prints. During his time at Carver, he was the first recipient to receive the Maryland Distinguished Scholar scholarship for computer animation. Also, he won first place for Carver in the International Media Festival for Computer Animation and Video Production. During this time, Douglas attended two High Schools and received a diploma from Carver in 1993. In 1994, Douglas returned as a student teacher and taught Juniors and Seniors photography, graphic design, video production and computer animation. Today, Douglas produces marketing campaigns across all of North America and his creativity can be found in large market publications. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.63.137.237 (talk • contribs)

 * The problem lies in that all the material on Wikipedia must comply with a specific creative commons license, so we have to go through a process for material that is copyrighted in order to use it.

 * Well, as written on the linked page "One simple way to grant permission to copy material already on line is to put that permission explicitly on the site where that material is posted. This is commonly known as a "copyleft" notice. This notice must state that your site (or portions of your site) are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License (CC-BY-SA) and the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts) or that it is in the public domain.

As the material you are wanting to use is available in a pdf at, you could edit that to reflect the above. However, there are a few other policies and guidelines editors need to follow, so what I'd recommend is that we move the article to your user space (not technically an article) so you can work on it an ask for advice without the risk of it being deleted. Would you prefer that instead?  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 01:56, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

The reason some of the wording that I am using on my page is available in that PDF is because I too wrote that one. If necessary, I can logon to that site and delete that file. Would that solve this issue? Davidjames911 (talk) 01:59, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

 * I went ahead and moved it to User:Davidjames911/All Saints Catholic Newman Center so you can work on it. In order for it not to be deleted and be included as a true article, it must meet notability, neutrality, and other guidelines.

This is truly dissappointing. I understand copyrights, etc. But I sent my word document over to the permissions email address and posted the OCRS in progress thingy at the bottom of the discussions page. I am NOT going to devote a lot of time to this. Thank you anyways for your help. Davidjames911 (talk) 02:04, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

How long will the redirect stay there when people search for the All Saints Catholic Newman Center? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidjames911 (talk • contribs) 02:09, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The redirect won't remain, but I'll leave the article on at User:Davidjames911/All Saints Catholic Newman Center.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:12, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Is it possible for me to simply copy and paste from our asucatholic.org website and use that as the source? Thoughts??? Davidjames911 (talk) 02:13, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. It still doesn't address the copyright issue. There are the other problems with the text itself even without that. Wording and neutrality and formatting etc.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:18, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Anyways, I need to get to bed. If you have any other questions, just check out and someone there will help you shortly :). Thanks.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:20, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

FRUSTRATING. I sent my word doc over to permissions-en@wikipedia.org. That was what the instructions said. I don't know how any other church got on this site...seriously. Davidjames911 (talk) 02:22, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I was very frustrated when I just started out editing too, so I completely understand. Just take things slowly, take a bit of time to read the articles I linked, ask questions if you have any, and you'll get the hang of it. You can work on your article a little bit at a time until it's ready and you can solicit the help of other editors as well.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:29, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Richard Ricky Rayner
Falcon

I would just like to enquire as to why my page regarding Richard Rayner was deleted? As a close friend I feel I have an in-depth knowledge of his life and career

 * Because it was a blatant attack page, as well as the other issues linked on your talk page. Do not create another article like that.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 22:28, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Colombia's article improvements
As we all know, especially if you look at the few featured articles that exist on countries, Geography section comes immediately after the History section. I suggest we make that change. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alejinarango (talk • contribs) 20:29, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I apologize. I undid my revert. Your change was fine, I just made a mistake.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 20:37, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Home_Automation External Link
My link to CocoonTech.com was removed (again), I am guessing (based on your latest info) because it also offers a forum feature. However, the site is much more than a forum (the link doesn't even point to the forum directly), and contains news, many reviews, tutorials, guides and lists which have #1 spots in most search results, so I am not sure how this could be not considered for inclusion (it's similar to the HiddenWires link, except it offers more relevant content, without selling anything). Please take a moment to check out the site and let me know how to address this. Thanks! 0xkiwi (talk) 14:07, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * If you check out WP:ELNO, you'll see it falls under serveral of the items listed there unfortunately. If you disagree, feel free to start a discussion on the relevant talk page.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 14:12, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you specify which items please? The DIY HA link contains a direct link to a forum as well, so I am not sure what the issue is at this point.  Thanks! 0xkiwi (talk) 14:25, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I just remove those as well. Just add it to . It's a forum/open wiki primarily as far as I can tell.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 14:31, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I hate to be a pain here (I honestly just want to get to the bottom of this, no hard feelings), but are you telling me that links such as http://www.cocoontech.com/portal/lists/home-automation-software (most comprehensive list of home automation software out there) and http://www.cocoontech.com/portal/articles/guides/home-automation/144-zigbee-101 are not good enough? The site is filled with content like this.  I guess I can start a discussing about this on the Home_Automation talk page, but it's pretty full already, and it doesn't look like anyone responds to the EL requests.  This feels like an uphill battle, and only people interested in home automation information are the ones getting punished (it personally doesn't affect me). 0xkiwi (talk) 14:48, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERTHINGSEXIST. I understand your frustration, but the problem is that it remains a community forum/open wiki. If you can get other editors to agree with the link's inclusion on the talk page, it can be added. Otherwise, just submit it to DMOZ and it will be linked on the page indirectly.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 14:50, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I started a discussion about this on the Home_Automation talk page, and included examples why the link should be included. Would love it if you could chime in (assuming you have had the chance to take a look at the site and the content), since the forums are only a tiny part of this site.  Thanks either way!  PS: As for DMOZ, it's already listed there in another home automation category, but more people use wikipedia to learn about topics (can't remember myself when I visited DMOZ to find something) 0xkiwi (talk) 15:05, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Falcon8765, can you please chime in on the Home_Automation talk page? Only 1 person has responded, and doesn't seem to understand the site.  If you don't believe the site should be linked after actually checking out the various components, then I will give up trying to convince you guys, I just want a fair chance.  Thanks.0xkiwi (talk) 13:07, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism - help!
Hi; today I've reverted what seems to be vandalism by User talk:206.211.90.253 at Fresh & Easy; I see you warned him/her in September 2009 that with further vandalism "You will be blocked from editing". I'm unsure what (if anything) ought to be done next, can you help/do it?! Thank you so much. Carbonix (talk) 23:36, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Since IP's can change hands and many are dynamic and can represent many editors, we generally just rewarn them until it passes a certain threshhold. If they keep vandalizing, they will be blocked though.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 02:27, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the guidance. Carbonix (talk) 00:23, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi fellow editor, I noticed you reverted something on Sikhism. The editor in question does not sem to have got to a good start and has already recieved warnings for removal in other topics here. My suspicion is he is a Sockpuppet I had issues with on Sikh articles some time back. Sikh articles tend to suffer from fanaticism like most religious articles.

Educational Consultants (India) Limited
You tagged it G12 - but the link you gave was Astute Education (or something) which didn't match the text (so far as I can see). I've tagged it A7, but if you switched links by accident, you may want to G12 it again. Cheers. (Happens at times...) Peridon (talk) 21:52, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Interesting. The author was Astute Neophyte, but the site didn't mention this outfit on the link given. Peridon (talk) 22:11, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The first paragraph is copied verbatim from . I see what happened, I googled the first clause of the last sentence there in quotes, and it was used verbatiim by another website without the last portion of the sentence. My mistake.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 22:13, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Thought something had glitched. Not to worry. Hit it again.... Peridon (talk) 22:15, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

speedy deletion of Asdfmovie
I responded to the proposal for speedy deletion of asdfmovie. I gave some reasons why the web content is significant including it has had over twenty two million views. Part of the notice said I should feel confident to continue editing the page, but of course I worry that my edits will be sucked into the vacuum of webspace and obliterated. Please let me know if you now think the page is notable and I'll then continue editing on it. makeswell (talk) 01:57, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * It needs reliable, third-party sources indicating how it is notable. Just having X number of views doesn't make it inherently notable as Wikipedia defines it. For specific information on what is and isn't considered notable, just click the link for notable in this response.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 01:59, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * In order for it to be considered notable does there need to be that there are reliable third-party pages discussing the topic or that there are reliable third party pages discussing how notable the topic is? If the former is the case then it is notable according to the Wikipedia system because there is an article about it on TV Tropes, an article about it on Know Your Meme, and an article about it on Wikitubia. There is also a page on facebook with over 20,000 likes therefore showing popularity, but I guess that isn't the same thing as notable is. makeswell (talk) 02:54, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Make your case on the talk page of the article in question rather than here. If an admin agrees with your reasoning, it won't be deleted.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 07:39, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
