Hey, Nawlin, can you please refain from vandalising my discussion page? I'd appreciate it! :-) 01/09/06
 * Note - this user created the nonsense/attack page Gubby, and I warned him about it. NawlinWiki 13:49, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Note - that 'nonsense' page contained FACTUAL INFORMATION about an extremely clever, important renowned proifessor of science. Details of such people sohould not be considered nonsensical or vandalism, and I was not warned until AFTER it was deleted, a little bit late wouldn't you agree? 15911 14:56, 1 September 2006 (GMT)

In response to the message you left on my page, it is not my fault that Professor Gubby just happens to have the exact same life history as this 'Eric Thomas' who, by the way, I have never heard of before. Also, calling peoples names 'silly nicknames' is simply ignorant; there are some names from various other cultures around the world that SOME narrow -minded people may dismiss as 'silly', but just because they sound unusual to you, it makes them no less important. I have also scanned through your discussion page, and it seems I'm not the only person annoyed by your 'trigger-happy' editing skills. I thought wikipedia was a free encyclopedia that ANYONE can edit? So-called 'grammar-nazis' like yourself have no place anywhere free speech is allowed. If my page is not undeleted soon, I will consider further action...

Hi Nawlin, I read requirements and posted information about Long Island Pizza Festival & Bake-Off please review. I wikified some terms and added categories. I am unable to link the reference on the LongIsland.com page about the pizza festival to the page, can you do this or send instructions on how to do this. Also, the categories, does it automatically index the page and place the appropriate link on the category page, or do I need to do this manually. Please reveiw and ok the page before I spend time linking to relevant pages. If any problems with the article, please post on my talk page. Thank you! LongIsland.com 15:06, 21 July 2006

Hi Nawlin - I am creating a page for an annual non-profit event that takes place on Long Island, NY. I would like to link this to the Long Island NY general page that has info about food, specifically pizza and I would also like to link it to my page that provides a definition of our Web site. I am planning to keep it brief and informative. Am I doing something wrong already? Please advise. LongIsland.com 22:29, 20 July 2006

Actually an article can consist of a picture because it's considered a reference. That's why there are so many in wikipedia with only a picture. lilnessaslove

I think the category in which they are under should be pretty self explainatory on why they are notable. If I find to do a biography on each one, then I will do so. As of now, in many cases people like to associate a face with a name, which I'm helping them do. lilnessaslove

These celebrities are listed under Blasian Musicians. That is why they are notable. No matter what category you go to, there is always information floating around that wasn't mentioned in the article and you could easily find by doing research elsewhere. This is no different. lilnessaslove

Hi! I saw your 'delete' on the Rfd, and I was curious about your 'Nawlin' name. Then I saw the Ray Nagin article. Are you sure he is a lifelong Democrat?

I'm So Tired
Hi,

Just wondering what the point is of reverting the ‘I’m So Tired’ page back to its original content when the detail that is on this page is both inaccurate and without any citation to support the points made. If you have evidence to back up the point about the change in pronunciation of the word “git” then fair enough but without it this comment remains an unqualified statement.

Please respond.

Thanks,

"Pepperstool 15:38, 31 July 2006 (UTC)"

Ok, that's fair enough. I think you're probably right about the Raleigh bit too. Three things that I think you should bare in mind though:

1) "get" is a Northern word and slang for "git" and therefore likely to have been used from the start rather than as a substitute

2) A quick listen to the Esher demos should hopefully give an indication as to whether this was altered in the studio, during the demoing or not at all. (I can't remember off the top of my head how Lennon pronounces the word on the demo but I'll listen to it tonight to find out).

3) If Lennon had originally used the word "git" instead of "get" then this line would not scan as a rhyming couplet. The words Lennon chooses to set up the final rhyme are "upset" and "cigarette". Neither of these words rhyme with "git" leading me to believe that it was never "git" or an attempt to fool the censors.

Sorry to be so pedantic.

Thanks for your response though. Good luck with the citation.

Aaron Russo
Dear NawlinWiki: I move your material on the film "America: From Freedom to Fascism" from the Aaron Russo article to the article on the film. Pretty interesting! Thanks for finding this stuff (Russo's personal tax problems and the clarification about his film being show "at" Cannes when it was really on the beach at Cannes!). I personally believe the information hits even harder when placed in the article on the film.

By the way, I'm just curious -- how did you happen to come upon this information so quickly? Do you subscribe to New York Times stuff by email? Yours, Famspear 16:13, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion Criteria on Grim
Hey, I noticed that you tagged this article for WP:CSD G4 as a recreation of deleted material. CSD G4 only applies to articles deleted through the XfD process (think AfD, RfD, etc.). A lot of people don't realize (including some admins), so it's a fairly common error. I changed your tag to CSD G1 (which it is). Best Regards, alpha Chimp  laudare 04:52, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Redirection of the suite life article
Hi,

I've redirected pages before. I opted not to redirect this one as the spelling is incorrect. It's "Zack", not "Zak". I would have redirected had I known that spelling errors were OK. I suppose it does make sense, since it's not immediatley obvious that it's Zack. Thanks for the tip. Nach0king 08:34, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Re: this warning
I removed your warning from User Talk:24.94.193.84, and added a welcome message and some vandalism reverting advice.

Troy Hurtubise edit...
Thanks for the heads up about adding an unauthorized warning at the head of the page. I have instead added to the article without removing parts of, or altering, the page itself. I would however disagree that the nature of the article excuses it's lack of NPOV. It is, after a moments perusal, terribly biased. While you or I may be able to distinguish this fact, and the absurd nature of Troy's claims, all readers may not be so well equipped. Ideally, shouldn't Wikipedia aspire to reflect reality, not simply the collective opinions of whomever has the most time to edit a page? As someone who has clearly devoted a great deal of time to such editing, I would urge you to consider the encyclopedic nature of wikipedia, and recgonize that citing imagined sources and the like, while maintaining the fiction of authenticity, does not lend the article real credence.

That said, I am new, and you were right about the warning I placed. For that you have my thanks. I hope that if I write an article you'll be as firm an advocate for it as you are for others, should it compky with Wikipedia's style and mission. Thanks

User page
Was that a userpage when I speedied it? I'm almost certain that I found it as an article.--Anthony.bradbury 21:27, 15 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Looks like we overlapped, in fact; it was an article when i found it, but you userfied it while I was tagging it, i think.--Anthony.bradbury 21:29, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

What happened is that she created a self bio article Najeedah, I tagged it for db-bio, but mistyped it, and was trying to change it and add a userfy tag. At the same time User:Anthony.bradbury was trying to db-bio it, and at the same time you moved it from the article to the user page and copied the tags with it. You then went and removed the db-bio tags that you though had been added incorrectly to the User page. That whole thing left behind a redirect on Najeedah which was tagged as being empty, then someone came and changed that since in fact it was not empty, but a redirect. What a glorious set of confusion. --Brat32 21:31, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Admin?
Just a remark out of the blue: Why are you not an admin? You make great contributions to WP, you do excellent work on articles, you have barnstars protruding from every orifice of your Wikipedian body, you fight vandalism, you vote in XfDs, you have thousands upon thousands of edits (over 2000 in August alone!), and yet you're not a sysop. So, for lack of a better question... what's the deal? Were you nominated, but declined the nom? This is just one man's opinion, but I think you'd be a superbly excellent (superbly wonderfully excellent?) administrator. -- Kicking222 16:46, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You're quite welcome. My question is whether or not you'd seriously like to be an admin (what with all the question answering you'll have to do, and all the responsibilities that are bestowed upon you; I'm sure you would like to be, but I wouldn't feel right about not asking- I don't want to force something on you!). [Aside: I have no idea if that last sentence made any sense whatsoever, but I think you know what I'm trying to say.] If you'd want to be nominated... well, I don't know if I'd do it myself, as I've never done so and would not want to screw up your chances by posting a crappy nom. However, if you knew of an admin (or someone equally trustworthy) who was well-versed in your work and would like to nominate you, I'd certainly talk to them, and I would be honored to co-nom. -- Kicking222 22:24, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, upon looking at the form to nominate an admin, I doubt I can mess up so badly that it would hurt your chances of being accepted (of course, I think your vast and high-quality contributions will be sufficient), so I'd be more than happy to nominate you. Before I officially throw you in the ring (I am going to take a little time to formulate a coherent paragraph that lists all of your various accomplishments), is there anything in particular that you'd like me to mention? I seriously think that you'll make the cut with a few dozen votes to spare, but I want to make sure I give you the best shot possible. As an aside, if I may ask (and if I may not, hey, no big deal), what's your name? -- Kicking222 21:29, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Here's what I've got right now. Let me know if there's anything I've missed (of course, if there is, you can cover it in your answers to the required questions, and feel free to copyedit it for simple grammar (I tend to write run-on sentences on occasion). If you have no objections, I'll submit it immediately, and the rest will be up to you to simply show everyone what you've done and what you can/will do.
 * Over the past few months, I have had the good fortune of interacting with NawlinWiki, and after seeing his contributions, achievements, and dedication to Wikipedia, there is no doubt in my mind that he would be an excellent administrator. First off, while Nawlin has only been seriously contributing for about 4 1/2 months, he has thousands upon thousands of edits- almost 2,500 in August alone. He is an incredibly friendly and helpful user; Nawlin's talk page (and talk archive) are full of barnstars, thank yous, and other commendations. He is highly active in WP:AFD, in both adding to discussions and nominating articles for deletion. Nawlin is also an incredible reverter of vandalism- he frequents WP:AIV, and every time he performs a revert (which he has hundreds, if not thousands, of times), he makes sure to talk to and/or warn the vandals. In addition to all of the above excellent traits, he marks his edits as minor whenever it is appropriate, and he always uses edit summaries. I have never nominated someone to be an admin before, but I don't know if I've ever seen a non-sysop as qualified to become one as NawlinWiki. Suffice it to say, I think this user is highly qualified to be an administrator, and he not just has a need for the admin tools, but would use them extremely well. Kicking222 22:00, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * In that case, my friend, best of luck. I'm sure you'll have no problems. And congrats on having a genius daughter! Yale is nice and all, but I'm quite partial to my Brandeis. :) -- Kicking222 22:05, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

 Kicking222 would like to nominate you to be an administrator. Please visit Requests for adminship to see what this process entails, and then contact Kicking222 to accept or decline the nomination. A page has been created for your nomination at Requests for adminship/. If you accept the nomination, you must formally state your acceptance and answer the questions on that page. Once you have answered the questions, you may post your nomination for discussion, or request that your nominator do so.

 * Somehow, I don't count posting that Alastor Moody is "made out of wood" is genuine. NawlinWiki 22:23, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Re:Berwick, Ontario
I was reverting the guys edits with VP, and I guess my revertion came right after yours, so it basically reverted your vandalism revertion. Anyhow, sorry if I caused you any trouble. It was purely unintentional. -- Nish kid 64 16:11, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about that
Sorry if I accidentally led you astray in nominating W&F by mentioning that site. The Bougainville entry had nothing but the flag of Bougainville on it, whereas the W&F one shows the football federation logo and even the kit colours. Although that site Chanheigeorge mentioned looks awesome for finding information to fix up all these obscrure non-FIFA national team pages. There's even a page there listing the kit colours of all non-FIFA national teams:, which are sometimes quite hard to come by. └ O z L a w y e r  / talk  ┐ 22:36, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I've commented on your nomination of this article. Seeing as the awards are non-trivial and are subject to multiple publications about them, I think the fulfill WP:MUSIC criteria.

Your RfA
Just a quickie. Good luck. Having 'observed' your activities, you deserve it, assuming the current trend of voting continues. Look forward to seeing you around and 'working' with you! Budgiekiller 20:56, 22 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Looks like you're cruising to a well-deserved successful RfA. In the brief time I've been a fairly active editor, you've earned my respect and admiration. Best o' luck to you. VoiceOfReason 05:29, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Page rename request
I wonder if you would fix a typo in the name of this page Radonfying function, changing it to "Radonifying function"? The redirect page radonify will also amending. Unfortunately, I haven't been around long enough to have the authority to do it myself. Thanks in advance. Sullivan.t.j 00:23, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I tried the "move" button, but Wikipedia told me: "You cannot move pages because: you are not logged in, your account is blocked from editing, or your account is too new." Thanks for seeing to that, though. Sullivan.t.j 00:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Review of User:MathStatWoman's pages
Would you help me review User:MathStatWoman's pages? I am finding that I don't know how to suggest an article for deletion, and many of her pages are of the same type, as you have edited in the past. Thanks a bunch. Chris53516 14:16, 23 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Chris - I would like to await the results of the AFD on Roberta Wenocur before suggesting any more of this user's articles on mathematicians/statisticians for deletion. I'm not especially an expert in those fields and don't want to jump into what seems to be an emotionally charged situation if I can't back up what I'm saying.  If this user has created other articles about non-mathematicians (like Brenda Dvorkin and Daniel Dvorkin), let me know and I'll take a look at them.  NawlinWiki 14:29, 23 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Okidokie. I moved your comment to here so people can follow the conversation. Chris53516 14:32, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Here's a list of some of the pages she's started: Chris53516 14:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Daniel H. Wagner, Associates
 * Steven Salant (under review)
 * Janos Galambos
 * Mark Pinsky
 * Richard M. Dudley
 * Herbert Wilf
 * Marion Cohen


 * Wagner Assocs. is on a pending AFD. Dudley and Wilf appear to be clearly notable.  Galambos, Pinsky, and Cohen seem more questionable, but it'd really help to have someone with expertise in the field look at those three. NawlinWiki 14:39, 23 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It's been emotionally charged because she has been making personal insults and is generally behaving inappropriately. For example, she voted three times on one of the vote for deletion pages. Chris53516 14:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Re. Reporting to AIV
Thanks for notifying me of this. -- Alex  talk here 15:10, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, apologies for my mistakes but it can be difficult to determine whether there has been more vandalism as you're probably aware I use VandalProof. I have to be quick about it as I would like to be the one to report if I've been reverting their edits. I don't often report, but when I do it's generally after a 4th warning. Thanks for your time (also you seem to be doing a good job as an admin - keep it up!) -- Alex  talk here 18:08, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Theta Beta Potata
This isn't a G4 since G4 requires that the new article must be essentially the same as the old. Also reposts usually result in protecting, and there is currently no reason to protect the article. The editor just used it to announce the DRV. ~ trialsanderrors 16:45, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

re: Carnage and Culture by Victor Davis Hanson
Thanks for the advice...I'm a new user, and just valued the objective info. available on the Diamond book and could not find the same info on Carnage and Culture. I'll try to figure out how to go back and add info. on the Hanson book to my request for a page. (In fact, I'm not sure I'm even "contacting" you in the correct manner...please forgive me as a beginner...any advice appreciated.) otisnflea

disrespectful, righhhttttt. if you feel its disrespectful go ahead and nominate it for deletion you all seem to get a lot of joy out of that. i know you all think my edits are "troubling".. maybe next i can create an article on this bull. b/c we all know one of the seven deadly sins in creating articles on zip codes. man you guys better throw me into alcatraz.

You're now an admin. Have fun using the new tools to help make this a better place. Use them conservatively, especially at first, and re-read the relevant policy before acting. As you get comfortable dig in and help out with the backlogs. Again congrats! - Taxman Talk 10:44, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Why was the article "Mark A. Coker" deleted?
hello. i'm somewhat new to wikipedia, so i may not be familiar with all the rules. i notice that nawlinwiki deleted an article i started, which was titled "mark a. coker."

i want to know:  1. why was this article deleted? and, 2. how can i avoid having my articles deleted in the future?

thanks. (posted by Jcoetzee on 8/26/2006)

Your RfA message
There seems to be a bit of a problem. You didn't have a closing bracket on it, so, therefore, all following messages are being included within your blue RfA box. I saw this when someone posted on my talk page after you. I just thought you should know. Michael 06:14, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Make sure to include |} which closes table(s) or the layout. I've fixed your layout on people's talk pages that these |}'s were missing. -- ADNghiem501 09:20, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Re:Srinagar and the Easy
No I have not been to Srinagar, but I can guarantee that its nothing compared to the Big Easy. Apart from obvious terrorism, Srinagar and most of India suffers from increasing deforestation, pollution and global warming. And the intense population density is not attractive either. The natural wonders are slowly but visibly dying.

Last December I had come to see the damage and try some free-lance journalism of sorts. But I was amazed at how, even though the suburbs were devastated, the French/Latin Quarter and sea front remained so beautiful. The architecture and free-ness of the city was absolutely cool - one can get lost and not have the desire to find the way back. The food was astounding. Despite all the devastation, the people were very friendly and high-spirited. The only snag was that I had to sit in a bar with a cold coke and not a beer or whiskey. That, and the relative absence of the opposite sex.

A city and its people's true character is revealed in such times of recovery from adversity. New York had shown amazing spirit post-9/11, but it was more of an American spirit, shared by most people across the nation. New Orleans has fought this battle by itself.

Squidarita Article
I do not understand why you removed my article on the Squidarita. This is a term and item that has gained some popularity in various locations, and as I helped create this hype, I wanted to explain the history, recipe, and some of the places where I know it has been used. What about that post was invalid? I am tired of explaining what this is to people, and it seemed like a good entry here. LeahCunningham 19:14, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

209.209.140.21 -- not a content issue...
I would agree with you only if a) any of what was in there made sense, but it doesn't. "a destraction from the Talmud"? "axiomatically square"? These things simply do not make sense in any context; and b) this content has never been in the article before, nor has it ever been discussed. Furthermore, it's going to take 2 more rvs to get to a 3RR violation, and I doubt that will happen in the required timespan. MSJapan 21:18, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Regarding an AfD for Rhonda Galbally
Hey, I saw you voted on this, so I decided to ask you. In total, there were 7 votes, all of which said Keep. I think that the AfD is complete, and the result is Keep.

The AfD discussion is two days old now, and I doubt anyone else would add votes to switch sides.

I don't know if there's a certain process to request an admin to remove an AfD for an article, so if I am doing something wrong, please tell me.

It's not a matter of content; the topic asserts no relevancy or notability at all. I did a web search for it and actually found it.

Spurtnip definition
Hi NawlinWiki

Spurtnip is a slang word that originated from East Anglia. Becuase it is undefined, I have tried to define it, obviously, with a humourous tone, but it is still a valid definition.

Could you explain how this could "pass" as a definition.

Many thanks
