Congratulations!
I see that you are among the 5 most active editors to the Boeing 747 article even though you haven't made an edit to the article since 2006. It has just been granted featured article status! The star isn't shown yet but it's listed among the promotions.

Too bad you are retiring. I've seen your name a lot. Archtransit (talk) 19:32, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Can I get a copy of the last version of this somehow? If my memory serves, there are a couple of sections and cites that could be cut and pasted into the Espiritista Union article that needs almost the same amount of effort this one would have. thanks.Vontrotta (talk) 12:09, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Infantry Lua- Help
Hello. I just have a few questions regarding the deletion of the article "Infantry Help" url-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Infantry_Lua

This article was intended as a resource for developers of Infantry Online, (an online game). I did not create this article, but a member our development team did. We were not aware that this broke any rules with Wikipedia, and we are very sorry. Since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia we thought that it would be ok to post it here because we have many people that reference this scripting code. The computer that this code was stored on crashed and as of right now this is the only way to get the information back. I am very sorry that this happened. I was wondering if there is any possible way to get the information that was in the article back. The information that went into that article took many years to compile. Please help me out. You don't even have to undelete it. I was just wondering if there was any way to retrieve the information. If there is any way that you can do that I would really appreciate it :)

Thanks for your help either way this goes

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Otis.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Otis.gif. 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. BJBot (talk) 09:03, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Thirty Ought Six
Hi,

I was checking wiki for info on the band Thirty Ought Six, and came across this.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Thirty_Ought_Six

Thirty Ought Six is definitely a band with plenty of legitimate and valid reasons for having an article here. Any info on how to re-instate their past info would be appreciated.

Ah, empty talk page!
Welcome back! How was your break? Here's hoping you'll be a little more active from now on ^-^ --PeaceNT (talk) 16:04, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Kenneth Fowler prod
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kenneth Fowler, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add  to the top of Kenneth Fowler.

The main concern is that the only possible source for this article is disappearing along with the publisher. The name is quite common amongst authors, there is even a contemporary historian of the same name with 5+ published books. I worry that there may be confusion with the name, and the confusion cannot be resolved since no sources exist to confirm the claims in the article.

I contact you because you handled the Copyright permission confirmation for this article. The main author has no account, but I have also notified an editor who did significant cleanup within the last month. Sorry to bother your retirement -- if you remove the prod I will not continue to seek deletion (though I may move the page for a disambig). JackSchmidt (talk) 16:56, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Recreation of an article
Hi. About a year ago you deleted Timeline of Dragon Ball per an afd and the article has been recreated (by Agent007ravi) as Timeline (Dragon Ball). Doesn't this violate copyright or policy? Please reply below, Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 03:14, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Howdy, you may be looking for WP:CSD:

"G4. Recreation of deleted material. A copy, by any title, of a page deleted via a deletion discussion, provided the copy is substantially identical to the deleted version and that any changes in the recreated page do not address the reasons for which the material was deleted. This does not apply to content that has been moved to user space, undeleted via deletion review, deleted via proposed deletion, or to speedy deletions (although in that case, the previous speedy criterion, or other speedy criteria, may apply)."
 * If the new article is basically the same text as before (not just the same topic), then you can just put a db-repost speedy deletion tag on the article. For instance as  .  If the article text is new, then you probably want to do the whole prod, afd1 routine instead. JackSchmidt (talk) 05:36, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks Jack, here it is. Think I added more than enough reason for a speedy deletion. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 05:54, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

My RfB
I wanted to personally thank you, MD, for leaving your retirement to come and participate in my recent RfB--I approve of your message. I have heard the community's voice that they require more of a presence at RfA's of prospective bureaucrats, and I will do my best over the near future to demonstrate such a presence and allow the community to see my philosophy and practices in action. I am thankful and appreciative that in general, the community feels that I am worthy of the trust it requires of its bureaucrats, and I hope to continue to behave in a way that maintains your trust in me and my actions. I hope that over the near future, you will become comfortable and satisfied with my understanding of the particulars and subtleties inherent in the RfA process, and that I may be able to count on your support when I decide to once again undergo an RfB. If you have any suggestions, comments, or constructive criticisms, please let me know via talkpage or e-mail. Thank you again. -- Avi (talk) 18:13, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
