My RFA withdrawal :(
Hi Mailer, I really thank you for having confidence in me and nominating me for my withdrawn RFA. This is the reason as I felt that I lack the experience and would like to go under admin coaching first before I go for another RFA. I hope you will still have confidence in me after this RFA and I've already contacted Titoxd about this, and I will get a coach by Monday. NSLE has already agreed to be my admin coach. I apologise for nominating me. Sorry :( --Ter e nce Ong 05:40, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Meade Skelton
There is a persistant troll named Meade Skelton who has yet again recreated false information in the Wikipedia database. The information on him was considered for review and after a period of consideration the web page was cancelled due to lack of notability as per Wikipedia standards. As this person continues to recreate the information the web page had the discussion tab removed, with a warning that the information was not to be retsored without Wikipedia approval. There is an article that is listed currently for deletion here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Meade_Skelton

This is a candidate for speedy deletion and the talk and original page should have the discussion tabs locked out.

My RFA
 Thanks  Thanks for your recent support on my RfA which passed 91/0/0. If you ever need anything, feel free to leave me a message! Gflores Talk 05:51, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

This is complete B.S. Meade Skelton is a great musician. Whats the deal with not allowing his page here? It seems that Wikipedia is more of a Dictatorship than anything else. The deletions were because of vandalisms which had nothing to do with subject at hand. People were vandalizing his entry. Meade Skelton is listed on BiggestStars.Com Plus, other music guides as well. His deletion was unnecessary and petty.

Meade Skelton is a troll. Meade Skeleton continues to enter data on various websites such as Biggest star that allow user input. These are not seperate and independent sources of information. Whether or not Meade Skelton is a musician he has done nothing of signifigance to warrant inclusion in Wikipedia. If someone merely has to repeatedly post comments about themself to warrant inclusion then anyone could have their own Wikipedia page. [Baronvon]

Off the Crossbar
I don't know why you deleted Off the Crossbar, because it is a valid article about a new book. Please restore the original article, and tell me why you deleted it. Thanks, Theonlyedge 21:52, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for voting on my RfA. It passed with a consensus to promote of 45/7/1. To those of you concerned about the fact that I am a relative newcomer, I encourage you to poke me with a sharp stick if I make a mistake. Or better yet, let me know on my talk page, and I'll do my best to fix it. Nice user page by the way. Mak emi 05:03, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I tried looking for a wikipedia policy on what and what not to include under "see also" but couldn't find any substantial info. Can you point me in the right direction? --Dodo bird 18:04, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi
Hi Mailer diablo, and thank you for taking time to vote on my RfA. I understand that my last 6000+ edits were not sufficient to convince you that edits like some of my early ones would never be repeated again, but I sincerely hope that at some point I would be able to convince you of my transformation. Looking forward to working with you in future. Regards, deeptrivia (talk) 03:22, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Mailer diablo, your reply to Deeptrivia - yes, he is a rare gem here, and time shall prove this... --Bhadani 05:56, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Your closing of the popcorn bag AfD
Hey, quick question. How did you come to no consensus on that close? I know it kinda defaults to keep, but usually there's a bit more credibility behind a clear keep, and the hard totals on the AfD were 21 keep v. 9 delete/merge. So where does no consensus fit in, just so I'm clear? --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 02:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm honestly not trying to be difficult, but I still don't get it... --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 02:20, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I guess I'm wondering that too. Absent sock/meatpuppetry, that seems a consensus for keep. It looks like it got changed? That's even more confusing! The page now says keep... (I watch, please answer here)  + +Lar: t/c 05:49, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Stupid Question
Knowing a series used two logos and only one was listed in the Wiki page I am trying to add the second logo to the Wiki page. I got the picture uploaded and all that, but the edit page is confusing me seriously. NOt finding any help in the Image help section on such things as logo_image, doc_image, etc...

How do I add this logo

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Doctor_Who_Season_18_Logo_Rev2.jpg

under the existing logo (so the two are displayed one above the other) to this page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_Doctor

so that you see, on the right side in the box

-Picture of the Doctor- -Logo for Season 12 to 17- -Caption that states it is the logo for Season 12 to 17- -Logo for Season 18- -Caption that states it is the logo for Season 18-

? I am not seeming to be figuring it out so far and it's bugging me. Help? Thanks!

The Key to the Living/The Key to the Dead
Hello, I am obviously new at this but I was wondering if you could possibly reconsider my articles deletion. You see, as I stated at the bottom of the archive of the debate, the information comes to me by a verbal history. Is there still something that could be done to salvage this page? It is just such a tragic and beautiful tale that is a very fitting mythology for wikipedia. If you can, please let me know if there is any way I can proceed.

Can you help me multiple move request?
Hi.. I'm one of the many Wikipedians you left a note for when I first joined.

I want to request the following multiple move (the Islamic page is slightly different so not included in list)
 * Buddhist view of marriage -> Buddhist teaching on marriage
 * Christian views of marriage -> Christian teachings on marriage
 * Confucian view of marriage -> Confucian teachings on marriage
 * Jewish view of marriage -> Jewish teachings on Marriage
 * Hindu view of marriage -> Hindu teachings on Marriage

Can you help me do this or tell me how?

TRACS deletion
I'm wondering, are you aware how many of the keep votes were sockpuppets? JoshuaZ 02:45, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm curious as well what your count was for a no consensus? On the Articles for deletion/List of TRACS members I counted 4 keep votes (includes Itake) verses 15 delete votes. I mean these are obvious puppetsWhile  admitted he voted in the Afd because he was told to  Thus, those 10 votes discounted bring my tally to 4 keep votes verses 15 delete votes.


 * And if you are not aware view Articles for deletion/List of Louisiana Baptist University people (second nomination) for past massive sock puppeting by Requests for arbitration/Jason Gastrich.


 * Also please let us know the user names of the discounted votes. Perhaps you can give it a closer look and see the comments by other users that were moved to the talk page. Arbusto 06:24, 2 April 2006 (UTC)


 * RCU may not be very useful in this case, since many of the users are very likely meatpuppets. If you look at the talk page this is discussed. JoshuaZ 15:14, 2 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Also, thank you for spending time to look at this difficult AfD. JoshuaZ 18:14, 2 April 2006 (UTC)


 * A check user hasn't always worked with this suspected puppet. In fact, it is strongly believed that an anonimizer(s) is used to change and hide his IP. There are over a hundred puppets linked to Gastrich (see: Requests for arbitration/Jason Gastrich/Evidence), which only a few were verified through check user. For example, User talk:Turkmen was not verified with check user results and denied being a sock. Yet, the account was blocked when this new user was making Gastrich style edits and added links to Gastrich's promotions(see that talk for proof). Meanwhile this User talk:Chuck Hastings sock puppet claimed he was not and did not know Gastrich. Yet, the email this sock puppet used was an account ran by Gastrich(see that talk for proof). Thanks for looking into this. Arbusto 20:44, 2 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Funny thing. A new user with his fifth ever edit contacted my talk about lists. Arbusto 21:11, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Closure of Ahoeitu AFD
I owe you an apology and an explanation, and I hope I haven't stuffed up the afd mechanism, but I rolled back your closure of this AFD. This particular huge batch afd is being split into individual afds which are being slowly rolled out, with a note being left at the bottom of the Ahoeitu afd as to which ones still have to be done (there were just too many to add to afd at one go, especially since they all need a bit of in-depth research). As such, this particular afd is still being edited. There's only about a dozen of them left to be re-afd'd, so it should only be another day or so before this can be closed off finally. Anyway, sorry for the rollback, and I hope it hasn't caused problems with afd in general! Grutness...wha?  03:37, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi again - yeah, I would have liked to have edited it normally rather than using rollback, but I only had access to an older IE browser at the time, and it limits editing to files 32kb long. This was was about 35, so if I'd edited it normally it would have chopped the end of it off (I hate IE...) Grutness...wha?  06:18, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm just closing it again - with Safari this time :) Cheers - Grutness...wha?  08:52, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Your Tenetuous Editing
Mailer Diablo, why do you fear Christians? I respect your right to be ignorant of Gods word, but running a cabal to oppress Christians is downright discriminatory and hateful. Please, I would like to open a dialogue and help you come to terms with the 95% of Americans who believe in Christs love.


 * Hmm, has two edits and sounds exactly like Jason Gastrich. He does seem to love the why do you hate/fear Christians line. Jason, are you aware that the absolutely worse person to harass with your sockpuppets right now is Mailer diablo given that he is the one who gets to decide on the AfD you tried to sock/meatpuppet earlier?

Hello.
Hi. Someone added something to my talk page. Apparently this someone is what is called on wikipedia as a "sock puppet." You came in and deleted the comments. I thank you, but this was really not necessary. The spammer caused me no actual harm, and his comments actually seemed a bit humourous. Again, I do thank you for your intending to help, but please don't feel obligated to provide this sort of help in the future (unless, of course, the spam were actually destructive in some manner).

The random deleting of pages
Mailer diablo -

Great one thanks! - my first attempts at helping add to and expanding the Wikipedia Base deleted & roundly trashed with some rather insulting comments (K.G.Childs)! If this is the type of reaction new users can expect from the obviously far superior more experienced longer time users then I'll just not bother with it - or perhaps I'll be just as childish & go around nominating other pages randomly for deletion!

I assume from the comments added that you'll be going around ensureing that you delete all other authors & books from Wikipedia esp. the Wikipedia Novels Project for which this was my first involvment for.

2 questions for you & the mob who decided that my time is worthless to you;

i) how the hell can I gain any page history (one of the 'comments') if all that happens is any attempt I make gets deleted. I agree It needed a lot more work doing to it but is there no-one else out there who makes a start and has to leave something unpolished until they can make time to come back & finish it off?

To say that I'm pissed off is rather an understatement - I'm actually furious .... and if I ever hear of anyone thinking about adding to Wikipedia then I'll let them know there's little point as it'll just get deleted without any warning to them!

ii) so what if AuthorHouse are a bunch of useless muppets - is the author to be blacklisted becouse as a new author he's made a mistake? Instead of effectively standing there laughing at him they may want to offer some useful suggestions - but no that would be too easy - it's much more fun to simply laugh at someone elses mistakes or mishaps!

- Just in case you are wondering, No I'm Not the author, No I'm Not family, No I'm Not anything to do with AuthorHouse & No I've Never actually met the guy!

Frankly I did what other users here obviously find too difficult to do & attempted to do my bit in helping him out by making his stuff my first additions to the WilkiNovel project before starting on the rest of my SF&F books!

Sorry to have intruded on your private playground - obvously this is an invitation site only - if your name's not on the list you'll have your entries wiped !

I've not bothered logging in as there seems little point - you'll probably just delete this without fully reading it or replying anyway but should you feel the need to explain or defend what's gone on here then you can find my profile contact details from the page histories unless deleting them wipes that data!

TrackYourTruck pages deletion
Hello, Few days ago you've approved the deletion of two pages I've created.

TrackYourTruck.com Vehicle Tracking Services TrackYourTruck.com Devices

I would appreciate you spending few minutes and either explaining or pointing me to appropriate resource. 1. What was the specific violation of me creating those two pages? 2. Is it appropriate to create wikipedia page about specific company? If not then why so many are around? 3. Should I just merge two article into one article?

I'm asking those questions from under two my hats - author of deleted articles and information architect involved into implementation of corporate wiki.

You can email me wikipedia@tarasul.com or talk me back on my user page.

Thank you Alexander Tarasul

Malachi Barrie
The Malachi Barrie page is back -- this time with some changes as to "father's" cause of death (still substantially identical for purposes of speedy delete? I dunno).
