1800flyeurope
I was asked by my company to put up an informational page about our company. I researched and found many other air travel company's had pages up with factual information and followed their pages as a template. I then posted my page and it was promptly deleted and marked as blatant advertising. I am asking for help userfy(sp?) this page so that we can also have a informational page on Wikipedia.

Here is a copy of my page that you had deleted.

1800 Fly Europe was established in 1995 as an airline consolidator. They guarantee travelers the best service for airfare, car rentals, and hotels to all major European, destinations at discounted rates.

Speedy deletion declined: Comaphoria (album)
Hello Quartermaster. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Comaphoria (album), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''This is the album, not the band. A7 doesn't apply (and neither does A9 at the moment as the band page does exist. Take the band (and this page perhaps) to AfD.''' Thank you.   Ged  UK  18:36, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Comaphoria
Hello Quartermaster. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Comaphoria, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''Album released through a label with an article is a credible assertion of notability.

Proposed deletion of Tupelo Chain Sex


The article Tupelo Chain Sex has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No indication that references to this band in stated sources are more than trivial.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Articles for deletion/Delayed Surreal Recall Disorder
I noticed this in my watchlist and was a little surprised to see that no one had notified you, but since you have actually edited the article (unlike me) I think it's not out of line to mention it. Accounting4Taste: talk 05:13, 24 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the oversight and heads up. I fully expected this to go to AfD (the originating editor seems to be proceeding in good faith) and have relayed my rationale there. --Quartermaster (talk) 14:12, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I just wanted to thank you for making my day; I always enjoy seeing the language used well. "Chicanery" is much more elegant than "bullshit".  I needed the reminder and will pull up my linguistic socks.  If you are a fan of Nero Wolfe, you may recall him saying (about "subreption"), "Leave it in.  It is the most precise word, and may improve vocabularies."  We can but hope.  Regards, Accounting4Taste: talk 22:56, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Good question
That was kind of a judgement call on that Indus Trust article. It didn't come back as a copyvio even though it's really, really spammy as hell. What tipped it for me was the fact that the principals had articles of their own. Had they been redlinked, I would have tossed it out. That whole thing was just one of those gray areas. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:05, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. —DoRD (talk) 16:09, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

A7 - not schools
While I certainly agree with this, A7 specifically states that schools are not covered. Sucks, huh? &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 12:54, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing that out. I am forever refining my understanding of speedy criteria. --Quartermaster (talk) 13:07, 1 September 2010 (UTC)


 * This is a weird rule. I guess it makes some sense, but I've seen a boatload of Indian school articles over the past couple of months. I usually use PROD or AFD in these cases. Many times it is hard to tell if the school even exists! &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 13:12, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi.

Articles for deletion/Erich Albrecht
Dear Quartermaster, I have been looking for more sources for Prof Albrecht (added reviews of his book - professorships at KU and Tulane) which I think should be enough to save a deceased stubbish biography. I have made some additional progress thanks to Prof W McConnell at UC Davis (a neighbour of yours?) confirming these are the same Albrechts. You mention you have some information - 9 entries for an Erich (August Gottlieb) Albrecht born in 1907 - which alone might not be enough but which might be usefully added. I can't seem to access these US bigoraphical source yet. What details do you have in these? Anyway best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 10:43, 22 September 2010 (UTC))
 * Many thanks - I think with that we will have enough to save it (these seem very useful: honor citizen New Orleans, 1965; decorated Order of Merit (Germany), 1960; grantee German Govt., 1957) - I'll try to do it tonight.... Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 13:48, 22 September 2010 (UTC))

Speedy deletion converted to PROD: Teaching physics
Hello Quartermaster. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Teaching physics to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe CSD applies to the page in question. Thank you. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:47, 24 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Articles like this one should have a CSD, but this gets turned down time and time again at WT:CSD. However, when it comes to this type of essay article, I've noticed that WP:A10 generally works: this article does not expand on the article "teaching" so it could be considered a duplicate. If you see essay/how-to articles in the future, see if you can apply A10. Just my two cents. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 10:55, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Photos from the State Library of Queensland
Thank you for adding the photos which were donated to Wikimedia Commons, by the State Library of Queensland, to Australian pages on Wikipedia. I think that what you have done with the photos is great - not clumpsy at all. I have added the  to the Brisbane River page as an historic photo of the river. I hope that this is okay.

You are correct that I am an Aussie. I was born in Australia (and live in Brisbane). I created the Southern Cross (aircraft) page back in September 2005, and have been a frequent editor of the page ever since, because I have always found the first flight across the Pacific Ocean - from California to Brisbane in the "Southern Cross", by Charles Kingsford-Smith and his crew - very interesting.

On a note of trivia, the aircraft was named after the Southern Cross contellation (which is featured on a number of flags of nations in the southern hemisphere, including New Zealand and Australia). Cheers! Figaro (talk) 16:45, 14 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I have just been searching for other suitable pages on Wikipedia which might also be okay for adding the photo you mentioned and have come across two possibilities - Watercraft and Personal water craft. Cheers!  Figaro (talk) 17:02, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Tupelo Chain Sex
–Hi Quartermaster, Thanks for creating the TCS page. Do we know one another perhaps? The reason why I write is because there is a major discrepancy. TCS wasn't founded by Willie McNeil. It was founded by Dave Dahlson aka "Limey Dave", J.J. Poskin, Sim Cass, and myself. Willie McNeil joined the group about a year after it's inception. Willie also did not create Jump With Joey. I created JWJ solely myself and spent a month preparing the repertoire before actually bringing the members together. I had hired Willie as the drummer, and he helped my find a good sax and trombone player. Later on, Willie assumed a larger role in the band, singing occasionally and co-fronting it with me. I'm not sure where you got your info from, but if you are interested, I would gladly provided you with other items for the TCS wiki. Best,

 * Hey, Joey ("Mr. Altruda" ;) )! Thanks for the heads up. I wish I had know you all then, I was just a local college student at UCLA when you were in your heyday. I am going to copy your comment and this reply to the talk page for TCS. I was originally working from other people's sources and I'm not surprised there might be errors. Wikipedia likes to cite external sources like newspaper and magazine articles and as dumb as it sounds, even a principal in an article isn't considered an authority unless they're being cited in an article. By putting this in the talk page we can at least start the process of documenting corrections and preserve your comments. If you know of any newspaper or magazine articles where the mentions about founders of TCS and JWJ it makes things more airtight. I may go in and just edit the article anyway with your information. I had to originally fight off an attempt to delete the TCS article as some folks said y'all weren't famous enough. By finding newspaper articles and reviews I was able to convince them that TCS was notable enough to have a wikipedia article.
