Being a mentor for the Mexican English class
First of all, thank you for volunteering to be a mentor! It cant be easy to find time when youre serving in the Army (ex-Army here too :D )

Anyway, you stated in the comments section of the Mentor's table that you can help out with the cultural differences between Wikipedias. I was wondering if you could give me a little tutorial first? What should I look for? One of my students assignments is to translate an English article into Spanish for Spanish Wikipedia. Any issues you foresee?

Thanks!

Restored Oshkosh All-Stars as a stub
A while ago, you deleted the article Oshkosh All-Stars. I've decided to restore it as it short stub, since, in my mind, it's a notable former basketball team. They won two championships in the NBL, which was the premier pro basketball league in the US during the 1930s and 1940s. (They eventually merged with another league to form the NBA.) The article is only a couple of sentences long at the moment, but it could be expanded quite easily with print sources. Look here, for example.

So, that's it. Just wanted to explain my reasoning. Cheers, Zagalejo 04:08, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:AEticket.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:AEticket.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 09:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Please undelete "consupport"
Hi

I've tried a few times, but not had an answer. However I'm happy to try again. I would like to get the article "consupport" undeleted. From the discussion, various changes were requested and all were done. There were no outstanding problems - however it suddenly vanished.

The only message was "The result was delete. - Mailer Diablo"

Much like the "Camp Mendocino" or "google", consupport is a free service which anyone can use. If you feel that the article needs improvement before undeleting, I would be happy to either do it myself, or would be equally happy of you or other people made the improvements.

Thank you

Help Me - Articles Being Considered For Deletion
helpme

Hello. Question 1: Is there anywhere on Wikipedia (some list or some link or some page) where a reader can see all of the articles that are currently being debated / discussed / considered for possible deletion? Question 2: Oftentimes, I find out "too late" that an article was already deleted and that the 5-day period (or whatever) is over and done with, and I was not able to particpiate in the discussion. How do I avoid that scenario from happening, without putting every single article of interest to me on my Watch List? Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro 17:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC))
 * You can find the current list at Articles for deletion. For AfD, no there is not much you can do after the discussion is closed (but you can talk to the deleting admin to ask if your argument can convince him to undelete the article). If the article was deleted during the proposed deletion process, when there is no discussion, just contact the admin and he should be able to undelete the article (but anyone can bring it to AfD afterwards) If you need further help, please don't hesitate to post on my talk page or to put   followed by your question on this page. -- lucasbfr talk  17:14, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. For Question 1 (above), I did not see any article names on the page you referred me to.  It was just a bunch of rules and policies about deletion.  Please redirect me.  Thanks.  For Question 2 (above), how do I avoid that same scenario in the future?  Thanks.  (Joseph A. Spadaro 19:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC))
 * In fact, they are on subpages organized by date Articles_for_deletion. For AfDs, unfortunately I don't see any other way than checking your watchlist often enough. It is common practice to tell people when an article they created is put for deletion, but this is not a requirement. I hope that helps! -- lucasbfr talk 19:08, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. I am still unclear, so let me re-phrase my question.  If I want to be aware of an article's proposed deletion ahead of time (so that I can participate in the deletion discussion / debate before the debate closes) ... I have two options.  (A)  I need to have that specific article on my Watch List.  And whenever someone edits the article (for example, to propose it for deletion), I will be notified through my Watch List.  Or (B) If a specific article is not on my Watch List, I would have to keep checking and re-checking those AfD sub-pages continuously to see what, in fact, is being considered for deletion on a day-to-day basis.  Question 1:  So, is my understanding correct?  Question 2:  If my understanding is correct, isn't there any other easier way than to (a) put every single article of interest on my Watch List ... or (b) having to keep checking that AfD page a million times a day on the off chance that one of my articles of interest might be on the list?  Thanks.   (Joseph A. Spadaro 19:23, 18 August 2007 (UTC))


 * If you go to the AfD sub-page for the previous day, then you need only check it once a day, or even once every 5 days as no new articles will be added to a day that has passed. Of course, if you find and AfD that concerns you, you will be checking it more often and watching how the argument progresses. As for tracking each page in your Watch list, "Speedy Delete" and AfDs are not likely to come up over articles with a long history or obvious relevance. If you just keep new articles on your list, you can likely cut down the numbers considerably. And, no, in spite of some thinking about this issue on my own behalf, I have found no easier way - yet. Bielle 19:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * What I do personally is keeping a list of the articles I want to keep an eye on (separate of my watchlist), and look at them every few days. In case of deletion discussion, there will be a big blue notice (either afd or prod) at the top. I hope that helps! -- lucasbfr talk 20:32, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately notifications of AfDs are very human-Dependant and not fool-proof. Categorized discussions uses human-sorting of AfDs according to topics of interest. In some WikiProjects participants specifically monitor and maintain a AfD-list on the list of articles that may be of the project's interest. Articles with no edits after AfD would indicate that it is being AfD'ed provided the nominator correctly includes 'AfD' (or anything similiar) in the edit summary. If you have created the article, some editors may choose to warn you on your talkpage of the AfD out of goodwill. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 02:00, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks to all of you for the helpful responses. I understand the process much better at this point. Much appreciated. (Joseph A. Spadaro 17:53, 21 August 2007 (UTC))

Walsall Wood
You deleted this article in November 2006 after a proposed deletion. Unfortunately, I was not a Wikipedian at the time so could not object, and your reason for deletion was by no means adequate (contrary to Proposed_deletion), but even though I never saw the article I cannot see how it could have been an uncontroversial candidate for deletion. Is it still possible to have the article restored or is there a time limit to request restoration? I would understand if there was a time limit, but none is mentioned at Proposed_deletion so I presume not. If it is still possible to have the article restored, I hereby request you to do so. Please respond on my talk page. Thanks very much, Alex9788 13:09, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I object to the reason that the article was proposed for deletion with the justification that Walsall Wood is significant and notable. A quick search on google should confirm for you that existance of the article does adhere to the guidelines set out in Notability. Thanks for your speedy reply, Alex9788 13:29, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for that. Yeah it does indeed need a lot of improvement, I can see why it got deleted in the first place now. I'll work on it over the next couple of days, get it up to standard. Thanks again, Alex9788 13:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!
...for you support in my RfA. Don't hesitate to rebuke me if I mishandle the tools. I'm going to work on AfDs, too, as stated in my RfA. So we'll have chance to work more with each other. Best wishes (and remember to reply mail). @pple 04:15, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Reminder to Mentor
Hola Mentors!

Im sending you this reminder because you volunteered to mentor my students in English Advanced B as they become contributing members of the Wikipedia community. We start working with Wikipedia in earnest next week. I ask you to take a look at your entry in the Mentor Table at School_and_university_projects/ITESM_Campus_Toluca/Mentors

Please update the information, esp. with what your technical and informational expertise is or, if you have decided that you no longer want to participate, please remove your information from the table. Please watch the pages associated with the project. Students will contact you via your user page and as soon as my students have user pages, I will put them on the navigation bar associated with the project.

I don’t need to remind you that your job is NOT to write their assignments for them, of course. I certainly will tell my students that… and the fact that you are volunteers that don’t have to help them… so they need to be nice. If any students misbehave (tho I don’t expect it) don’t hesistate to contact me and I will take care of it. The goal of this project is to integrate successfully into the Wikipedia community. Anyway… what I really need your help with is helping students get oriented to Wikipedia, make appropriate changes and write about appropriate topics (see School_and_university_projects/ITESM_Campus_Toluca/Syllabus for assignments). I also need your technical expertise… I am only an English teacher after all! I appreciate what technology does for us but I am no technical expert!

Again, thank you for volunteering and you will hear from us again soon! Thelmadatter 20:11, 28 August 2007 (UTC)Thelmadatter

An AfD needing closing
Hi I wasn't sure who best to ask, so please could you close the AfD here Articles for deletion/The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Inc. (second nomination) or can you nudge someone to delete it? As it's gone over 5 days. Last time is overran (to 10 I think), causing confusion over the outcome, and it had to go to deletion review etc. Hope you can help.Merkinsmum 03:14, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Seidokan
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Seidokan. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Peter Rehse 08:28, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Albert Reed
Hi Mailer diablo. I restored Albert Reed, an article you deleted about a year ago, and added referenced information. If there is a problem, please let me know. --  Jreferee  (Talk) 02:30, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Odex's actions against file sharing nominated for GA drive
Greetings, Mailer diablo. I believe Odex's actions against file sharing has GA potential, and I have nominated it for the GA drive. Since you are the article's primary contributor, you may wish to "adopt" the article, and encourage others to do so as well.

The following concerns must be addressed before the article can attain GA status (note that there may be issues that I failed to notice):
 * The lead section needs work.
 * The "Anti-piracy alliance" needs expansion and references.
 * The article should be copy-edited and checked for NPOV.
 * The article is about a current event; it will only be stable and eligible for GAC once the event is over.

The GA drive is still in an experimental stage; any queries or feedback about this method of collaboration should be posted at talk page of the SGpedians' notice board.
