About Failed predictions
Hello, my name is Darius Groza. I read an article called Failed predictions on Wikipedia, about people statements that turned to be true, such people saying the telephone is a hoax. It says you deleted it. How can I still see it's content? I would need some quotes from it.

Mail me, please, ASAP, on darius.groza@gmail.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.77.126.159 (talk) 10:08, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day

Deletion historian, you might be interested...
Hey I caught you online. :D

You might be interested in Historical Wikipedia pages/Talk/Gamefoolz, the duplicated (yes, duplicated) history of Talk:Gamefoolz. It seems to have been one of the first deletions ever. Also interesting might be early history of Internet humor... Resurgent insurgent (as admin) 10:03, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Denise Milani
Denise Milani (model, 5’4”, 34”-19”-34”, born April 24, 1980, in the Czech Republic) "is quickly becoming one of the world’s most sought-after busty [DDD bra size], non-nude models. Since 2004, she has appeared in countless photo shoots for popular online sites, such as SPORTSbyBROOKS.com and PinupFiles.com" according to Ask Men

Denise is one of SPORTSbyBROOKS’s most popular models and she has appeared at promotional events across the U.S., including stops in Los Angeles, Malibu, Boston, and Maui says Ask Men.

Her photos and videos also appear at numerous web sites including Wikipedia. She was "Model of the Week" at Ask Men.

But the page is protected from editing: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Denise_Milani&action=edit

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Denise_Milani indicates you decided the result was "delete". Well, she is more famous now, and it appears as time goes on she will increase further in fame. Salting the article makes no sense for someone increasing in fame.

Thanks again! —Remember the dot (talk) 06:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

What makes a science fiction group notable (for this site)?
Hi this is a question about notability. There seem to be a looooot of articles about local science fiction societies. I presume because there are a lot of SciFi fans on wiki, they seem to be immune to failing the normal required standard of notability needed. I am thinking of Birmingham Science Fiction Group, an article which to me is completely lame, but because it is 'important in the history of british science fiction groups' or something, a prod was removed. Well it wouldn't be in Britannia lol, and to the rest of the world that aren't into SciFi I can tell from the article's history that I'm not the first to be surprised that it's there, someone else tried to speedy it. Would it ever be deleted at AfD?Merkinsmum 22:22, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Re : Unblock
((unblock|You must have been kidding me. The edit at Pan Am three years ago obviously can't be vandalism!)) - Mailer Diablo 22:41, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Unblock declined as a blatant sockpuppet. But you should try editing, anyway. You never know. Um, I guess I'll ask David about this. I don't get it. Good to go, for now? – Luna Santin  (talk) 22:51, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
 * My error - I meant to block User:Mattjblythe who has since been blocked by others for uploading a misleading obscene picture and replacing the Pan Am article with it. Sorry about that. - DavidWBrooks 01:29, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

RfA
I considered not spamming talk pages but not saying "thanks" just isn't me. The support was remarkable and appreciated. I only hope that I am able to help a little on here. Please let me know if I can help you or equally if you find any of my actions questionable. Thanks & regards -- Herby talk thyme 12:27, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Toyotaboy95's edits
Would you mind helping to watch MTR and to a lesser extent Octopus card for Toyotaboy95's edits? I know he's making good faith edits, but I don't think he's familiar with the importance of providing sources and abiding by WP:MOS. Both of those articles are FA status and it would be a pity to see them demoted. I left a message on his Talk page. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 07:44, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

AfD(s) for Ben Rudnick
I was clearing out closed AfD's from the Bio category when I found an open AfD at Articles for deletion/Ben Rudnick. The article had already been deleted, so I checked its log - and found that you had deleted it on 13 November per Articles for deletion/BenRudnick. Note the space in the name. It looks like the nominator created this AfD twice (within the same minute, no less), and only one was closed. Both had delete votes, and there was no support at all for keeping the article, but I though I'd mention the duplicate debate to you, since you were the closing admin. If it were to go to DRV for some bizarre reason, I figured you'd want to know what happened. I non-admin closed the dupe, noting the debate you closed.

Fair use rationale for Image:Adtranz.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Adtranz.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Dream out loud (talk) 07:15, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

LOTD experiment
You voted for one of my prior proposals to institute a List of the Day Proposal. I may have already alerted you to an experiment I am conducting at WP:LOTD. Now that the experiment is running I can point out the benefits to the project of the method I am experimenting with that other alternatives don't offer. First, there is a set of orphaned articles for persons who do not have any featured lists of their own or persons that would like to take responsibility for more. Anyone can nominate such orphans. This benefits WP by getting people involved in list articles that might not have active editors to update them or defend them against vandalism. Please consider adopting one of our orphans.

There are several other advantages that will improve the project:
 * 1) Each list will be encouraged to respond to commentary and feedback during the candidacy period, which will hopefully improve the quality of the articles.
 * 2) Articles without pictures will be encouraged to find them. E.g., List of Harry Potter films cast members had no image before its nominator added an image for this experiment.  This type of thing, of course, improves the project.
 * 3) Articles are encouraged to add relevant projects to their talk page. This alerts other project to articles that they would likely have an interest in and would be able to either improve or protect.

Again come by and consider adopting one of our orphans this month or in future months either adopt an orphan or give feedback on the candidates.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 17:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

AfD Related Deletion
Hi, I see you closed out this AfD:

Articles_for_deletion/The_Moist_Towelettes

but didn't delete the other related article included in the AfD:

The Moist EP

Thanks.

Official thanks, slightly delayed due to post-RfA crash (who knew?)
  Tapadh Leibh (Thank You)...  ...for helping me navigate the waters of my surprisingly peaceful  RFA, which closed successfully with 85 supports, 1 oppose, and 0 neutral.

I would particularly like to thank <font color="E0CCDB">Acalamari and <font color="E0CCDB">Alison, my nominators, and everyone who watched the page and ran the tally.

If you hate RfA thankspam, Mailer Diablo, please forgive me. I promise I won't block you in retaliation for deleting it ;-)

If there is anything I can do to be of service in the future, please feel free to contact me.

And forgive me if I need a <font color="E0CCDB">Wikibreak now and then (like now. I'm exhausted!). You wouldn’t want to see me <font color="E0CCDB">climbing the Reichstag, now would you?
