Re: Your assistance please
Re your message: You will not want what is there as it was really a joke article. I was being kind in the deletion notice. The "article" was written by and you can get the drift of their editing habits from their edit history. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:40, 4 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Re your message: No, it was not a copy the Citizendium article or even remotely related to the mining engineer or the vessel. Just somebody's idea of a bad joke.  It should have been deleted under CSD G3, but like I said, I was being kind in the deletion notice.  Trust me, you really don't want it. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:56, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Re: Phillips
I made the right call policy wise, and thanks for the FYI at the article had been reconstituted, because I have long awaited news of its return in order to put it back under the axe again. As for salt, no that was not hasty, it was the right thing to do at the time, but time changes all things, as it will here as well, so we will let the chips fall where they may at the new afd.

Regardless of what happens, know this: by bringing this to my attention again, you have in fact help Philips because a previous editor incorrectly recreated the page, which necessitates a page history merge. For this catch, you should be proud. For my part, I hope the article is permitted to stay, but as an admin I am honor bound to observe policy, and thus the new afd. I hope that Philips is allowed to stay, but that depends on the community. TomStar81 (Talk) 07:59, 6 September 2013 (UTC)


 * I left a reply over at the afd, also I need your input into where the article should go if it stays here. Remember, the histories must be merged so that means that we need one definitive place to put the article when all is said and done. Your suggestion will set the stage for the keep camp to rally around, so make sure you reply as soon as you can. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:39, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Maersk Alabama
In your recent edit, both instances of surveillance are misspelled. Since both misspellings are in the Commons, and in the title, I couldn't find a easy way to fix since I have no experience with Commons files. Perhaps you could fix? Cheers, Darrell_Greenwood (talk) 23:32, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
