Darren James (broadcaster)
Many thanks for your speedy review and OK of the article I created: Darren James (broadcaster). Much appreciated. I have now added a photograph of the subject, as suggested. Cheers. Melbourne3163 (talk) 09:44, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

That warning you placed on my talk page
Was that warning for me? Did you even read the hyperkalemia page history? A.amitkumar (talk) 14:20, 1 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, I have to apologise for that. I have reverted it as soon as I realised it. When I use Huggle, sometimes I tend to screw up. So, it just happened to be an edit conflict. When you pressed the "Revert" button on Twinkle, I also pressed the "Revert" button on Huggle. Then, not knowing that you reverted the edit, I just clicked a seperate "Warn" button and thought I was warning the vandal. Arctic   Kangaroo  14:23, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
 * LOL. Twinkle has no "Revert" button. ☯ Bonkers The Clown  \(^_^)/  Nonsensical Babble  ☯ 14:32, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Yup, I know that. But as long as he can understand then it's fine. Arctic   Kangaroo  14:35, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Sandboxes
Hi, I notice you have been tagging a few user sandboxes for speedy deletion (as G1 nonsense, and G2 test pages). However, user sandboxes are supposed to be used as test pages, and it's fine for them to contain nonsense. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:17, 4 May 2013 (UTC)


 * OK, noted. Arctic   Kangaroo  11:18, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

prodigal son
Hey, why was I flagged? Peoples talks on the talk page were all being deleted. I flagged it as vandalism and restored all of the delete comments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samtomjon (talk • contribs) 11:20, 4 May 2013 (UTC)


 * That 208.x.x.x IP is a sock. By reverting User:MelbourneStar's edit, you are restoring the vandalism by the IP. Arctic   Kangaroo  11:29, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

I don't know about socks. He deleted a comment from it's appropriate place, probably due to a new user bouncing it around. I only notice because the guy kept saying "help, I'm new and just trying to talk". I think mstar might have gotten carried away and should have moved his comment to the section on the talk page that it was actually pertaining to, and then fix the formatting travesty. Which is what I tried to do. So it looks bad for newbs today.Samtomjon (talk) 11:51, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Edit Request for "Vandalism"; Follow-up
I noted that there are two photos with the name Gate of all nations in Persepolis, one above the other. The one on the top shows the disfigured human faces of winged oxen on two sides of a gate. The picture underneath, which is the one you have probably noticed, shows two intact faces, which have probably led you to reject my request. Kindly check he matter and open the editing option for me!--Echopapa echoromeo (talk) 05:14, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is not solely about reverting vandalism. Never was. It's all about content creation. The purpose of this project is to write. So, write, will you. Btw, Kangaroo, the butterfly article in your sandbox is pretty neat. I took a peek, if you don't mind. ☯ Bonkers The Clown  \(^_^)/  Nonsensical Babble  ☯ 09:11, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll try to, but the thing is, I have little knowledge. I'm currently working on articles about Singapore butterflies. Of course, at anytime, feel free to peek at my sandbox. PS-How do you get to know about the people in articles you contribute to? And how you know so much about them?  Arctic   Kangaroo  09:22, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * There is absolutely no need for you to have contextual knowledge on a subject. 99% of editors don't. Me included; I don't consider myself to be an expert on the things I write about. That's when Google comes in. Say, for example, my latest article, Kwek Hong Png. I had zero knowledge about this guy, except for the fact that I saw his sculpture at the Ancient Civilisations Museum. But hey presto, now I know a lot more. It's very simple, just google his name. For my case, I used Google books. I joined Wikipedia simply because I get to write about random things, and that's how you should go about too. :) As a side note, having contextual knowledge on a certain something might be worse. ☯ Bonkers The Clown  \(^_^)/  Nonsensical Babble  ☯ 09:39, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

 * I only became active in late November last year, and it's 2 articles so far, actually. Arctic   Kangaroo  09:45, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * And also, I'm still thinking and see how I can improve the article about the Yellow Flat. The "Doing" tag in my sandbox has not changed, and it's done on purpose.  Arctic   Kangaroo  09:50, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, so I noticed. Make it 200! It's possible... I created more than a hundred around last year. My advice: cite books. I might help you expand the stub soon. ☯ Bonkers The Clown  \(^_^)/  Nonsensical Babble  ☯ 09:56, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Kelly Sutherland
I was about to reject 's recent edits to Kelly Sutherland – based on the rather critical tone that didn't seem to be supported by the cited sources, and the pp-pc1 tagging specifically warning about NHL referees getting WP:BLP violations – when I saw that you accepted them. I've only done a few of these reviews, so I'd like your take on why this wasn't a BLP case. Thanks for any tips! ~ Jeff Q (talk) 09:54, 8 May 2013 (UTC)


 * I found it quite OK, tone was still fine. But if I didn't remember wrongly (so I may be wrong), negative BLP info is fine as long as there's a reliable source. Cheers and feel free to guide me. Arctic   Kangaroo  09:57, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I beg to differ. We cannot publish attack/non-neutral POV pages. However, this luckily isn't a very negative page, but I suggest someone remove the unduly-weighted phrase "heavily handed". ☯ Bonkers The Clown  \(^_^)/  Nonsensical Babble  ☯ 10:02, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi there, I've been trying to figure out what ref or citations are missing in my article. This musician has comparable information to Roger Fisher from the same band and he's got his page on Wiki. I've tried to rectify this article a few times and I'm not sure what you are refering to exactly that has not the right reference or citations. Please help me by stating which part is not approved Thank you very much for taking the time.

 * Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. Regarding your article, more references are needed. It's great to see that you know how to display the references, so you just need to source the unreferenced paragraphs. Also, try not to add links to external websites in the main part of the article (the content). Cheers. Arctic   Kangaroo  16:20, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Hey Kangaroo, thanks very much for your help ! I did add a few references yesterday and some of those are from external links. How do I go about avoiding these when they are the only known reference I have found? And also, I have youtube interviews and newspaper clippings/articles of my subject and his co-founder guitarist Roger Fisher who's got his article on Wikipedia. Could I referenced to those? I've read you can't. Again thank you very much for your help, as you can see I've been working on this article for a while (break for surgery) and would like to have it published one day soon. I know I'm not too far from that. Your time is appreciated on this. Mothetoed (talk) 19:24, 11 May 2013 (UTC)MothetoedMothetoed (talk) 19:24, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Arctic. IP 70.247.166.76 has continually added new statistics to various airport articles without providing a source. Here is where the problem is:

Hi Arc! This user has been making a lot of disruptive edits and has even been blocked for 24 hours. As you are an admin, I think it is better to permanantly block him as his IP has'nt been changing for a long while. I saw one blanking today by him when I was Patrolling so I warned him. But I feel it is not good to leave him like this. Zince 34'  08:32, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

 * In future, you may want to report the vandals at WP:AIV after they have been warned appropriately. If you ever need any help with anything, you can approach User:Materialscientist. This guy's an admin who will usually be available the whole time, from about 11pm (UTC) to about 3pm (UTC), which should be quite an OK time for India. Cheers.

you have inserted vandalism in 2013 formula on season article
After your edit there are statements about 1,7 (should be 1,6) litre turbocharged engines and that the present are 2,5 (should be 2,4) litres. Why that - you appear to have reverted edits that themselves were reverting of vandalism.

Unnecessary deletion of article for copyright infringement
Dear Arctic Kangaroo:

You recently deleted a page I'd submitted on Jean-Pierre Bardet for copyright infringement. The article in question used a lot of content from a university website THAT I WROTE! It's not copyright infringement when a writer uses his own work, and in this case, the work is content on a public university's website, certainly not anything for commercial use.

At this point, it doesn't matter because the page is no longer needed, but I think in the future it would be a good idea to contact the person who submitted the article before deleting it immediately. You seem to do that a lot, and since it's not viewable by anyone until it is approved, there really doesn't seem to be a reason not to allow the person to explain or correct the problem.

 * Arctic Kangaroo never deleted a page; only administrators can do it. He only ever marked pages for deletion, some of which later got deleted by an administrator. If you want to warn/notify anyone about wrongly deleting a page, you should do so with the deleting administrator. Just go to the page that got deleted and in the deletion log that appears in red, go to the talkpage of the administrator who deleted the page and leave this message there instead. Note that even though content is not actually copyrighted, it does seem so when placed on a site with a footer saying "All Rights Reserved" or something similar. I noticed that the webpage content was copy-pated from suggests that the website claims copyright for any content available on it. Also note that copy-pasting, regardless of whether it causes copyright infringement or not, is not preferred for Wikipedia articles in general. Please see WP:C-P.  smt cha hal   (talk) 01:37, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Update
Hi, Arctic Kangaroo. A few thing of update:
 * 1. I see you got a new signature, which I very much like . Good thinking there.
 * 2. I'm also going on a semi-wikibreak for similar reasons, except for nl.wikipedia.org (Dutch Wikipedia). I want to increase my edit count there.

Anyway, good luck on everything. Sincerely, WorldTraveller101(Trouble?/My Work) 22:38, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cam'ron, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tonight (song) (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 22:55, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.

IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:


 * Views/Day : Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
 * Quality : Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:


 * Content : Is more content needed?
 * Headings : Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
 * Images : Is the number of illustrative images about right?
 * Links : Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
 * Sources : For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.
