Ephrem Taylor Article
Please see the discussion before blindly reverting edits. Thank you.

 * Please learn about Wikipedias' deletion processes before accusing me of blindly reverting edits. Anybody, but particularly IP editors', deleting categories, interwiki links, and anything else that's on the bottom of the article, looks like vandalism.
 * I looked at the article talk page. There is no discussion, in the sense that there are people talking back and forth. Is there anywhere else I should look? I dream of horses (T) @ 01:01, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I am trying to update the article as since 2010 it is well established tha Ephrem Taylor was running very scam-y businesses and is being investigated for grand larceny. Have you read the article? It reads similar to an advertisment and has almost no sources.  http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/ctcc check out City Capital Corp which is given a false impression of being a successful business when it crashed years ago.  I am just trying to update his article but really it should be deleted.

 * It'd be better to just use the inuse template, and do all of your edits at once, than it is to almost make the page blank (or, at least, deleting large chunks of the article).
 * There are two main ways to get articles deleted:
 * If there's going to be any amount of controversy over the deletion, you nominate the article for an articles for deletion/discussion, to see if there's general consensus that the article needs to be deleted.
 * If there's going to be no amount of controversy at all, you propose the article to be deleted, just to be sure that nobody objects.
 * There's also speedy deletion, but that's for articles that blatantly violate the minimum standard for articles--under normal circumstances, only articles that are recently created are speedily deleted. I dream of horses (T) @ 01:31, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Future president of the United States
Hello I dream of horses. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Future president of the United States, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: If you looked at the content, you would see that the names are generic placeholders, thus making it a blatant hoax. Thank you. -- The Σ talkcontribs 02:10, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It was rather hard for me to read. Thanks, I dream of horses (T) @ 02:17, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the PROD notice, but there wasn't any need to tell me about this article; all I did to it was removing a deleted image from it. Nyttend (talk) 00:49, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * In terms of those sort of things, I'd rather be safe than sorry. I dream of horses (T) @ 01:49, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

"Stale"; warnings
We do not let registered users off the hook for repeated vandalism at long intervals simply because their warnings have "gone stale"; we block their accounts. Why should the situation be any different with regards to an IP which is clearly static and from which the same vandalism has been committed on the same articles multiple times over a period of months? cab (call) 04:44, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe I know which specific IP/comment you're talking about. Even if the warning wasn't stale, I believe there wasn't enough warnings. I dream of horses (T) @ 16:08, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi there, just letting you know, you probably know, but on AIV, not every account has to have 4 warnings to be blocked. Indeed, I removed one report that didn't even constitute vandalism, but was a content dispute. Just keep that in mind. ;) Happy editing.

 * Okay, then. I suppose I was being my overly bold self. I dream of horses (T) @ 03:14, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Heh, no probs, I was just being my even bolder self and picked up on it :P Steven Zhang  The clock is ticking....  03:18, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello I Dream, I wondered why you considered 69.116.35.172 to have insufficient warnings. This user has added the same spam link about once a week, and has recieved four warnings for exactly the same action. It spanned over two different months (late June to late July), but I would consider that WP:GAME. I'm not trying to criticize, I would truly like to hear your thoughts on the subject. Thanks! 78.26 (talk) 14:19, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The spam link adding is so slow going that it's pretty easy to clean up, no? So why not remove the spam link and move on with our lives? I dream of horses (T) @ 17:42, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
