Deletion
Brianna Brown - You stated that this article was deleted because she was not a famous enough actress, yet google has over a half million results for her name, including articles that speak of her as an up-and-coming Hollywood actress. As a matter of fact, she had a relatively major role in tonight's episode of Criminal Minds, playing the part of a serial killer. Could you consider restoring this page please? (Despite the fact that no one responded to the prod within the usual 5 day time limit.) Lunarknight737 (talk) 04:06, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Emarosa Article deleted and recreation protecting
Hey Mallanox, I see you deleted the article because there wasn't enough context. Well im taking on the task to recreate the article again. Here is my draft: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Chadpriddle/Emarosa I'm trying to get an admin to remove the protection on the page and was wondering if you could help me out. I went through the usual process but cant get any help, so I was told to talk to one of the admins that have previously deleted the page. Let me know if you could do it. Thanks! Chadpriddle (talk) 07:32, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


 * That sounds like a good idea Mallanox! Thanks for the quick response. Chadpriddle (talk) 15:56, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

You deleted Big Gee (rapper) all and well by WP:PROD but there are still a fair number of other pages which link there, including one which is a redirect and should be deleted along with it, unless there is some other Big Gee I don't know of that should be redirected to instead. ~ Jafet (spam) 16:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello, members and friends of WP:LGBT! I'm not one to be writing newsletters, but I miss our cruise director, Miss Julie, and our project is drifting along with a few leaking plugs in the bottom of the boat. Hey, it happens. Every group we join goes through changes. If Wikipedia weren't so interesting it wouldn't also be so frustrating sometimes. And vice versa. More than one Wikiproject has tumbleweeds blowing through it, but this is one that can't afford to let that happen. Even if you pop in to the talk page of the project, you can let us know you're still around.

WP:LGBT's Role in HIV / AIDS articles
It wouldn't be a proper gay community without a li'l bit o' drama! That's right. If we aren't arguing about something, then we should be asking if we're still queer. Maybe that's for the best, since we know we're still kicking. Our most recent topic is how far the role of our project should go in dipping our toes into HIV/AIDS articles. The main AIDS article was delisted as a Featured Article last month, sadly. (Sending a swift kick to WP:Medicine.) A spirited discussion is available for your entertainment on the WP:LGBT talk page about just how much of HIV and AIDS should we take on. As ever, we'll take your opinions under advisement. We're going to have to, because it doesn't seem to have been settled.

Is Pride POV?
We have a pretty cool sidebar that identifies core LGBT articles. Its symbol is the iconic gay pride flag, much like other Wikiprojects have iconic symbols denoting the topic is a core subject in a series of articles. However, a question recently arose asking if the symbol itself is not neutral. Should a pride flag show up at the top of the article on Conversion therapy? How else would anyone know the article is about queer issues? Is there another symbol that is as widely recognized and that includes all our many splintered facets? At what point do we stop asking ourselves all these questions and just go have a mint julep on the verandah and stop caring?

Harvey Milk and Jim Jones
For the love of all that is holy, no Kool Aid jokes. However, an editor involved in pioneering San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk's article has included a section about the late supervisor's support of Jim Jones and the People's Temple. While it may be accurate, there is a Request for Comment regarding how much emphasis the section places on Milk's support in light of his overall political influence on the city, and indeed the rest of the United States. Milk's article is a sad one in more ways than one. It lacks the detail and heart that honors its subject. Anyone want to do a barter with me? I'll bring Harvey Milk to featured status (give me a month or two so I can read stuff), if you do something of equal value to WP:LGBT?? Make me an offer...

Queer Studies is offensive!
The established branch of study known as Queer studies was brought up as an category for deletion because an editor was offended by the use of "queer" in the title. It was overwhelmingly rejected mostly by the usernames I see here on our Wikiproject page. (A clue that I know you are out there, hiding...biding your time...) So, I wish I could congratulate you, but now I'm all confused by my sympathy for the editor who was offended. So, if you're reading this, Moni has a short memory and can't remember your username. Don't be put off by our demonstrative pushiness. Join us. We can always use involved editors.

Lambda Literary Awards
What can you do to help the project out? Be a wiki-fairy, on many levels. There are all kinds of articles that need help. Why, just this morning I removed those ugly wikify and cleanup tags from four articles at random. If you can put  around stuff, you can clean up articles. There's a list of articles that need attention at the top of the WP:LGBT talk page. Or you can start with the Lambda Literary Awards, where the goddess of my altar received a pioneering award, and was "reduced to rubble" by Katherine V. Forrest's wonderful speech. The 20th ceremony of the Lambda Literary Awards, which celebrates LGBT literature, took place in West Hollywood on May 29th. The page needs to be updated with the new winners, to be found on the official website.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz, Arthur C. Clarke and Bernard Montgomery
Why on earth would someone want to delete material about homosexuality? 'Tis truly a mystery. But these embattled articles have some random evil gnomes removing information that places these folks under our queer umbrella. Help us keep an eye out for the deletions. Take a peek at the articles, familiarize yourselves with the info, and be handy with the undo function in the article history. If tempers flare, take it to the Hall monitors and let them sort it out. Best solution is to make sure your sources are immaculate.

This month's Wiki stars
This is what I get for opening my big fat mouth and suggesting the newsletter should be revived. Here I am writing it. So, to pat self on back (*cough*) Mulholland Dr. became a featured article in May. This is A Good Thing since it is my personal declaration that there is no such thing as lesbian porn. I don't care what Benjiboi says about the video collection at goodvibes. Instead, we have hot women who connect on a deep, personal, soul-touching level, so this film should qualify as some of the skankiest porn available for lesbians. Plus, it's completely confusing and surreal! D'you think Laura Harring would care that the article is featured? I don't think so either... (Call me, Laura!)

Compulsive hoarding of templates
Once I saw a harrowing episode of Animal Planet's Animal Cops where this guy had, like, 250 cats in his house and it freaked me right out. I'm drawing a parallel between 250 cats and, well...three, really, templates in articles involving LGBT issues. Can we stick to one, maybe? In the aforementioned Harvey Milk's article there's a core LGBT template, a link to the LGBT portal, and a sidebar for LGBT rights. Jiminy! You'd think we weren't the folk to set industrial grey carpeting and track lighting in vogue. An LGBT footer was designed to link to articles of interest that aren't the aforementioned core articles. What do you think, can we have either an LGBT template for core articles, a footer for LGBT articles that are high profile but not core, or an LGBT rights template? As ever, anything's up for discussion on the WP:LGBT talk page.

The Violet Quill and magazines
Zigzig20s suggests we create an article on The Violet Quill, as it seems such a milestone in the advancement of gay/queer literature. Members of the Quill all have pages of their own (Edmund White, Christopher Cox, Robert Ferro, Michael Grumley, Andrew Holleran, Felice Picano, and George Whitmore). We need to find more info on the Quill per se to reference the page that we create. Perhaps Google Books - and libraries? - can help.

A number of magazines also need articles, perhaps most notably QW, LGNY, and Lesbian Feminist Liberation.

Mom's nagging for Pride Month
It's June, Pride month. Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, get a designated driver, then go half-dressed in the streets find a girlfriend or boyfriend, or some homo who's standing there looking lonely and kiss 'em up real good. Remember, it all started 39 years ago when a bunch of drag queens just got fed the f*ck up by the cops raiding the bar and dragging them all out to the pokey again. Rock on, queens! Enjoy your celebrations. My town's is in October, and 200 people attend. I miss Denver.

Fresh faces to brighten our pages
Hey, I've seen you around! Sorry there seem to be so many—it's been a while. But we welcome you all: Cheezisyum21, Taineyah, Dustihowe, Avesta69, RachelSummers77, Vivekgopinathan, AMK1211, Staffwaterboy, Ted Ted, Joe5150, Leahtwosaints, Robapalooza, Arthomure, Confusionball, Affinity likely, PrinceOfCanada, Yobmod, Npd2983, Neagley, Bvlax2005, Bvlax2005, Rhullsf, Textorus, Kieran.casey, Tyciol, Meojive, Sappho'd, Bookkeeperoftheoccult,  Gaywarrior, Aujourd'hui, maman est morte, and Balin42632003.

It looks like we've picked up a lot of talent lately. We have no doubt you'll be making your indelible mark on LGBT knowledge as we know it, here at Wikipedia.

Alan Cabal
Are you fucking nuts? Put Alan Cabal's article back. I hate Wikipedia. This idiotic deletionism of useful articles. I am going to go shoot one of the many fucking fictional characters wandering around this junkyard of meaninglessness if Alan Cabal is not restored. I do not have the means of doing this, but was frightened out of my gourd when I noticed that he had become a red link. If you are not totally to blame for this obscenity feel free to disregard some of my venom, direct it at others, but ultimately rectify my grievance. Also, I am not Alan Cabal, but believe he is fucking notable.-Manhattan Samurai (talk) 07:57, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Just trying to keep it real and bring a little color to some of the goings-on around here, which seem almost purposedly lifeless at times. Yet, fact remains, Alan Cabal should rise again.-Manhattan Samurai (talk) 18:00, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I will try to keep civility in mind next time.-Manhattan Samurai (talk) 20:46, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow, talk about gross incivility. Anyway, Mallanox, you mentioned that it had been contested at DRV.  I can't find the link to the DRV discussion.  Can you give it to me? Thanks. --Ave Caesar (talk) 23:30, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * AfD created...it'll be interesting to see if certain people go ape shit over it. I will admit, a very small part of the decision to do it came from the fact that the user had the gall to tell me, "There will be no further pursuit. If you are looking for something to do..." Oy. --Ave Caesar (talk) 02:05, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I apologize for this tirade from a week ago. What can you do? Occasionally the mind wants to vent but it was uncalled for. Additionally, I have started a deletion review on said article.-Manhattan Samurai (talk) 17:25, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

i already apologizxd
I already apologized. I simply overacted at seeing someone else seemingly being subjected to the same sneaky tactics that were used on me when I first joined wikipeida. I see now that that was not your intention with is why I apologized on the WP:ANI] page and struck through my comments on that other users page. I apologize again for my overreaction and I am sorry that I did not come to you at first int he first place. Smith Jones (talk) 17:55, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Article needing to be deleted
As with many things in Wikipedia, figuring out just how to nominate an entry to be considered for deletion is taking far longer than I currently have the time for. This would be my first such article, as I have a pretty high tolerance for "notablity." Yet this one fairly screams for it: Party Unity My Ass. For one, that's not the name of the organization (see the reference section). Another, there are virtually no sources for any of the material concerning the make up of these related organizations.

Recreating Brian Plante article
Not trying to "cross" you. See that you killed it before. Just putting this in discussion so you know. I think an article is reasonable, given that he's not some fan or something, but has a lot of Analog publications. I will keep the article short (as reasonable compromise on Plante's notability.)

I suspect that the person uploading all those schools is a secretary or webmaster in the school district. I've advised him/her on WP:WPSCHOOLS's system, and even provided a starter redlink.

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

AfD Dekker Dreyer
You were the closing admin on the last AfD, so I'm notifying you of another AfD. The person who submitted it didn't contact anyone.--Wikimegamaster 18:52, 10 April 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikimegamaster (talk • contribs)

Suspension of admin privileges due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative privileges of users who have been inactive for one year, meaning administrators who have made neither any edits nor any logged actions in over one year. As a result of this discussion, your administrative privileges have been removed pending your return. If you wish to have these privileges reinstated, please post to the Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Flow Time and other process analysis concepts
I was going to write a few pages on fundamental process analysis concepts such as flow time, flow rate, cycle time, etc. I found that you deleted an article on flow time back in 2008 because you didn't consider it a significant process analysis concept. Can you explain that? IMHO, these concepts are fundamental and are the foundation of process analysis.

Organization of group to revive WikiProject Biophysics, deleted in 2007
The Biophysical Society is currently organizing a group effort for a WikiProject to improve Wikipedia content and coverage in the large interdisciplinary area of biophysics, internationally. Since the previous page of that name was deleted because of a short temporary existence with only a bot edit, I presume those issues would not apply to this new effort. Please let me know if there are objections to this revival. Dcrjsr (talk) 16:50, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that you will not longer be able to request restoration of the tools because of your prior inactivity. You have until December 30, 2012 to request restoration or else the policy will prevent you from doing so in the future; you would need to seek a new WP:RFA. Until December 30, you can file a request at WP:BN for review by the crats. Thank you.  MBisanz  talk 04:22, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
