User talk:Humblefool/Archive4

Please be civil, and know that I will respond soon-ish to you on your own talk page. I don't delete stuff, even flames or spam, I just archive.

GamePal Hello, I started working on an article yesterday and when I came back to edit it, I saw that it had been deleted. I just wanted to know why it was deleted and what I can do to ensure it does not happen again. GPInc 13:09, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Astrobrite
Okay, so you just deleted my page on Astrobrite on the grounds that your quick Google search revealed the band doesn't have a proper website, just a Geocities fan page? How is that fair grounds for deleting a page? I get that you need to keep it free from every single band on the planet using Wiki to promote themselves, but if you checked this out properly you'd see that Astrobrite is the project of Scott Cortez, who is a leading figure in the 90s/00s ambience/noise-pop scene. I'll admit there isn't an awful lot of information available online but if you're going to take that attitude you could probably delete about half of the musician pages on Wiki. My first post was an accident, and way too brief (this is my first time at making an article) but I promptly followed it up with an article detailing his discography and a bit of background.

Look, I don't mind if you've got a valid reason for deleting this, but it doesn't seem like you don't at all.

Skulltag
Hey, I'm not quite sure I understand why you deleted this article. Those guidelines were proposed. They havn't been adopted yet, meaning that they pretty much don't stand for anything yet. Almost all of the software listed on Wikipedia violates those guidelines. Why not delete all of them as well? I think that this was unfair to the Skulltag community. HarrisonHopkins 22:56, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

If you could recreate at that link for me to move somewhere else I would greatly appreciate it. HarrisonHopkins 23:17, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Skulltag. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review.

Harrison, the fight's still going on

sino-british joint declaration
Hey, I helped you to add a tag for purposing deletion for this topic. Chinamen have no right to write down this topic, how dare they can create this topic talking about superior race of British people. Don't worry Humblefool, I will help you. I believe that this topic will be deleted in 5 days. Let us co-operate to eradicate all Chinese-related topics. : ) 70.52.74.207 00:40, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

immigration to Macau
I also added a tag for deletion for this topic. So don't worry, I will help you to delete all related subtopics of Hong Kong and Macau as many as possible. Next topic I am seeking now, and I will let you know later on. Again, don't worry I will help you to eradicate all inferior Chinese related topics whether it is copyvio or not.70.52.74.207 00:09, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

immigration to Hong Kong
excuse me, can you tell me why you reverted what I wrote in this article?70.52.75.136 03:32, 21 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I think this topic will be disappeared in 5 days, don't worry. Now I am going to add a tag for purposing deletion of other topics of Hong Kong and Macau, namely sports, economy, demographic, climate, etc,  I think that these topics are more or less copyvio that they should be deleted right away. 70.52.74.207 00:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I already helped you to add more tags for deletion for the Hong Kong related topics like economy, climate, history or the like. I hope these topics can be eradicated in 5 days as we wish.  70.52.74.207 00:29, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * FYI, I reverted every single edit of this anon/troll, and blocked him/her for two days. -- Fuzheado | Talk 03:00, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Space Tree
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/delete&page=Space_Tree

You previously deleted Space Tree and now it has been recreated, could you please delete this again. --Simonkoldyk 21:59, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. --Simonkoldyk 00:56, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm confused as to why Space Tree is repeatedly deleted, it has a large fan base and is part of Keen Toons pages such as Evil Josh & Billy have not been taken down, yet they have fewer episodes and followings as Space Tree. --freakybeastie 01:42, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Digital Opportunity Index (DOI) AfD
The "non-notable business" that you thought was behind the Digital Opportunity Index (DOI) article turns out to be the International Telecommunications Union, an agency of the UN, which is both notable and not a business. I've rewritten the article to make this more clear, and I've added information about the index to the ITU article, and I'm suggesting merge or keep. I invite you to reconsider your vote. cheers --Xtifr tälk 11:24, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Space Tree deletion
Hi. Just wondering about the Space Tree article you deleted three times. Talk:Space Tree mentions that it was only deleted because someone inserted a lot of copyvio. I think it might have some merit since the article was created in February 2005 and was never been so much as AFD'ed in over 1½ years. Just wondering if you had investigated whether the article could have been reverted to remove copyvio rather than deleted. Thanks. —Wknight94 (talk) 19:03, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Relist?
I should point out that (unlike AFD, but like RFD and CFD) TFD has traditionally employed the reasoning that if nobody objects, the template can be deleted - this is mainly because the page is rather long and tends to be backlogged, and suggesting that nominations with "no objections" should be relisted is basically encouraging people to rubberstamp everything. Note that TFD is watched by a lot of people and it is unlikely for them to miss a nomination they would have objected to. The reason we're extra cautious about AFD is that articles are actual content, and templates/categories/redirects are meta-content. Yours, ( Radiant ) 14:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The harm is in increasing the backlog of an already backlogged process, and more importantly in encouraging the mentality that people must explicitly endorse obvious cases they already agree with, or the idea that some sort of quorum must exist for process. What I'd personally do if I'm unsure how to close something is add my own keep-or-delete comment (thus clarifying the situation) and leave it for another admin to deal with. ( Radiant ) 09:53, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Result of the debate
Since when was the result of the discussion "delete" for the "History of Turkic Civilization" template? I have a feeling that you didn't even look at my last post to the talk page.. The number of delete votes was not so much more then keep votes, and that only considering that some delete voters actually campaigned for votes.. The reason the template linked to many pages where it was not listed on was because the template had been protected because of edit-warring. And the idea behind is not some "nasty" pan-turkic bias, Turks have not been a sedentary nation, please read the arguments more carefully before closing a vote and calling people's ideas "nasty". Even though I have not created this template, I think it is always a better idea to try to "improve" than be a "deletionist".Baristarim 10:00, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm strongly agree with Baristarim. I also want to make some comments about your decision for the template but please do not consider this as an interference. The template was protected, otherwise, it could be improved. Even in this case, the number of keep votes (27) was higher than the delete votes (25). There are similar controversial issues voted before, i want to give an example, [|here]. If you check this voting, you'll see that the number of delete (12) votes was higher than the keeps (7), but the page was not deleted. Changing the title solved the debate. In my opinion, the similiar kind of decision would be a better solution. I should also admit that your statements seems to me slightly biased. Regards. E104421 16:29, 23 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Your comment was quite POV, I would expect better from an admin. Otherwise I believe E104421 and Baristarim already said what I wanted to. Armanalp 18:50, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

WP Munich template
What was the change you did to WikiProject Munich template? Kingjeff 21:00, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

User:Timecop
You said: "I have undeleted and unblocked Timecop's stuff. He's been doing this for over a year, and most of it's been by-the-book Afd'ing.  Digg is very good at making things seem bigger than they are."


 * As you wish, although my deletion was supported by at least one other person. I encourage you to make note of this at WP:AN.  I will not engage in a wheel war with you, and I thank you for looking into it.  I disagree with your decision but I'll let it stand.  --Yamla 03:33, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Iasson
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Iasson, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Iasson fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason: ''' No need to keep this. Nothing to do with an encyclopedia''' To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Iasson, please affix the template  to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 22:10, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

GPInc Again
Hello! Thank you for the links, I really appreciate helping me point in the right direction. I can understand how you would think the blurb I posted while working on the main article was a self-advertisement, but I assure you, that's not what I intended. We're currently one of the leading companies in our field, and wish to have our current history published somewhere, and since we are an online company, we felt the leading online encyclopedia would be appropriate. I do have a much more fleshed-out article now, in order to get it published, what steps do you recommend I undertake? I don't mind waiting days or weeks while editors review it and remove any subjectivity they may perceive, I'd just like to make sure we do get published and recognized as a "real" company. I have checked and found at least one competing company on Wikipedia, so I don't believe it is setting a new precedent for us to be mentioned on your site. Thank you very much for your time and help, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GPInc (talk • contribs).

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Administrators&oldid=526254016#Restoration_of_the_tools_.28proposal.29 recent change] to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you.  MBisanz  talk 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
