I am curious as to why you feel the videography was inappropriate for the page. I didn't add it, but I don't see how it is really any different than listing the movies an actor has been in or the books an author has written. Actors act in movies, authors write books, Youtube people make videos - what is the difference? --ThaddeusB (talk) 05:13, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't see that they are comparable. Listing dozens of non-notable, four minute videos doesn't seem like it belongs on the page. I don't have a particular policy to point to, so I can't really fight for it, though. ÷seresin 22:18, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm... I don't see why they aren't notable. Some were actually quite popular. A passerby looking for the videos would benefit from the list. May I re-add them? If not, can I use my sandbox to reformat the list so it takes up less space? Airplaneman  talk 00:28, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Popular does not mean notable. You can add them again, or do whatever you want. Trying to make that page reputable is like fighting a mudslide. ÷seresin 01:25, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * OK. I guess probably more than half of the articles on Wikipedia fall under that same category :). I'll re-add soon. Regards,  Airplaneman  talk 01:50, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Speedy tags
See WP:ANI.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龙 ) 08:50, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I saw. Are you referencing the ones I denied? ÷seresin 08:52, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Some. Although I see the ones you did deny were actual full character names. I've done a lot of tagging and at one point I just brought up every redirect in his contribs and tagged them. Some of them are random names or very common names and should be deleted, but the character ones I guess are useful. Ones like Yuchun and Kamen Ryuki and Daiki are more problematic.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龙 ) 08:56, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's why I denied them. They might not be appropriate, but they are legitimate enough to warrant a full RfD. ÷seresin 08:58, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I am sort of curious, out of the many legit names you have removed this tagging from, how many do you think require extensive discussion? Admittedly, another editor brought up a good point with Black Cat: the characer list page has been revised since then. When I made the redirects, only the secret organizations had sections (with bolded bullets for each members). Now we (or perhaps WP:ANIME) have a chance to create more specific redirects. Seeing as how haphhazardly this has happened and how other fictional characters' articles have just been deleted by mods who didn't check like you did, I am wondering if there are any consequences to prevent this kind of farce from occuring and requiring bothering you with it in the future.

 * Thanks for keeping a clear head Seresin. It's good to see someone who cares to take a look at something before tagging it. Tyciol (talk) 10:55, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Thomas Newman (actor)
An editor explained the notability guidelines to the article's creator on Talk:Thomas Newman (actor). Eventually the creator admitted "maybe when he's done a few more movies he can have a page" and "you can delete it now", which I took as requesting the deletion of the page.

 * Okay thanks. ÷seresin 10:46, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem. Hut 8.5 10:47, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

ANI
Thanks. I wasn't sure if there was already a thread on ANI, but I just wanted to get something posted as quickly as possible to suppress further drama. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 21:06, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure ending discussion seven minutes after NYB asked for outside eyes did anything to suppress drama, or that a thirty-second delay to check ANI would have resulted in any project-shattering drama, but you're welcome. ÷seresin 21:16, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Signpost delivery
I asked User:Tinucherian to finish the delivery starting from User:Lights.--ragesoss (talk) 15:32, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

RE: Democratic Party (United States)
The Democratic Party (United States) article was protected as per the request at WP:RFPP. — Kralizec! (talk) 00:30, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I almost did not protect the article after seeing that was already blocked, but went ahead and opted for it after checking out some of the other reverted edits.  Since I am a self-described Republican, I figured I should error on the side of caution and go ahead and protect the article.  If you feel I have been too hasty, please feel free to remove the semi-protection.  — Kralizec! (talk) 01:05, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you are right, but I would rather acknowledge my personal views and sometimes overcompensate for them, rather than -as some of our fellows appear to do- deny that they have any bias all the while acting in a highly partisan fashion. — Kralizec! (talk) 02:15, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
