Simon Springett
I've nominated the article Simon Springett for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Simon Springett satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Simon Springett. Don't forget to add four tildes (&tilde;&tilde;&tilde;&tilde;) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of Simon Springett during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion.

Hi Flyer
Hi,

I am a newbie but I think you were prematiure in deleting "Hi Flyer" using the speedy deletion process - as I had put a justification for keeping it in the talk page as indicated by the "proosed speedy deletion" tag.

Was this an error?

Regards

Simon

 * Hi Springnuts: do you have in notable and verifiable sources for the national/international concert tour? If so, ask me and I will undelete the article and add the references.  Thanks. — Mets 501  (talk) 02:33, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

OK thanks for your reply, I can't find enough to satisfy the notability police at this time; I will make a note to re-write after this autumn's UK tour when there is something to quote.

Thanks for your help

Simon

No problem and apologies if my comment seemed at all snippy. I suppose that the article should be moved, but I don't really have any brilliant ideas on where it should be moved to. If you have any thoughts on the matter, please leave a note at Talk:Ethelweard. All the best ! Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:54, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

It's not nonsense. I just forgot to say "MAJOR ARTICLE SPLIT" in my first edit summary. Check the history at Gougou Sentai Boukenger. You'll see what I did. Ryūlóng 22:04, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Negative Syndicate
I don't think it's nonsense - the link in the first paragraph seems to imply it's part of some Japanese tv show. Whether it's notable in the first place, and whether it needs to be a seperate article I couldn't say. Dave 22:04, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ooops, double edit! Dave 22:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

NEXUS Trust
A tag has been placed on NEXUS Trust, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why NEXUS Trust is really notable, you can contest the tagging. To do this, please affix the template  to the page and leave a note on Talk:NEXUS Trust, explaining how NEXUS Trust is notable. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.Seraphimblade 10:17, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I cannot undelete or delete articles, only nominate them, as I am not an administrator. After placing the nomination, an administrator would have reviewed the article, and it would be he or she who makes the decision to delete or not. However, anyone (including the article's author) may contest a page's deletion. If you would like to do so, place an entry at the deletion review page and your concerns will be reviewed. If the consensus is that the article should be undeleted and restored, an administrator will do so. You may also wish to read WP:BIO and WP:CORP to get an idea why the reviewing administrator may have agreed that the content did not satisfy notability. Seraphimblade 19:58, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for letting me know about your talk page edit. As I said on the talk page, £19 billion is for the UK's 232 aircraft, not the entire project cost. The page is about the whole project, so I've edited it accordingly. Mark83 17:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

WP:AIV
Hi, I saw your note that you hope your post at Administrator intervention against vandalism was the correct way to report a vandal -- well, it was! However, we do need to warn users before we block them, except in certain situations where the vandalism is blatant (a very large amount of vandalism or particularly obscene or attacking). Any user can do this -- just add a message to the user's talk page. See Vandalism for more information. I've warned 198.59.99.217 for you.

Your marking of J-Status for Speedy Deletion
A google search comes up with this boyband, and their website, they are a legit Boyband and can be considered notable, perhaps making this article a stub would be better. The deletion isn't required. ScorpO 00:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Umakant Sharma
Hey, i recently removed your speedy deletion nomination of Umakant Sharma, as this indivual has received coverage from CNN.COM. I am not the orignial author of the article, nor realy have any interest in it, other than expanding it. YOu readded the speedy nomination tag claiming that it had been removed by the author.

Speedy deletion nomination of Kepware
Hello, I am a student at USM in Portland Maine. I study computer sciences and have often found useful information and example source code from Kepware. This article is is no way intended as an advertisment for Kepware and I believe that it is non-biased in nature and in no way promotes Kepware over any other software company. I used wikipedia all the time and have seen many similar articles, which encouraged me to create one about another software company that I knew about. You can find similar articles about Wonderware and Rockwell Automation to name a few which I have included links to their wikipedia pages on this page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by USMstudent09 (talk • contribs) 00:36, 29 December 2006 (UTC).

Uriella speedy deletion tag
Hey there, I was wading through the nonsense speedy backlog. I have removed your speedy tag from Uriella as I don't believe it qualifies as nonsense. Confusing, yes, (and odd as well) but I think that's due to a translation problem of some sort. I haven't gone through all the sources (many are in German) but I think it's perhaps a cleanup, wikify, then see if it merits an article. Please let me know if you're seeing something I'm missing. Cheers. Dina 01:23, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up on the afd of the article on Umakant Sharma, it is much appreciated! Hope you have had happy holidays and a happy new year! -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 06:54, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I just wanted to give you a heads up that CSD A# are not criteria for image deletion, they have their own section of the policy. I labeled this image as an orphan instead. Soon, Orphanbot will come around and tag it for deletion after five days. Procedural nonsense, it could be ignore all rules kind of deletion, but this is more of a heads up for later new pages patrolling tagging. Keep up the vigilant hunt, happy editing to you.

Template:Doosan Group
Hi Springnuts. I disagree with your A7 tagging of this template for speedy deletion. Doosan Group is clearly notable, and while I agree that User:Mirmo! has created a number of shaky pages, he/she appears to be interested in South Korean corporations in general and any concerns about their edits should probably be taken as good-faith notability problems rather than spamming. If you feel this template is not helpful or have another reason for its deletion, it could be listed at WP:TFD. Cheers,  Dei z  talk 09:39, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Having looked into this a little further, Mirmo's edits tread a very fine line of notability. However, as there is a wide range of companies featured in his editing, I don't feel he is an outright spammer. I do fully support his block for removing tags. I'll continue to look into these pages, so far I've speedied one and removed a couple of tags as inappropriate, 2 on templates and one from an article with a weak-but-visible claim to notability. I might ask other members of WikiProject Korea to get involved with some of the salvageable pages.  Dei z  talk 09:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: List of people who went to heaven alive
Hi Springnuts, In spite of my comments, if I could think of a way to title it (and Noroton, who also agrees titling is a problem, is also trying to think of a way), I would like to see such an article! I've asked a pastor friend to look over the article, its talk page and AfD discussion to see if he has any ideas. There is a common thread, but how to title it? I have my doubts if this can be done. This has been a great lesson in WP process for me, especially that 'I like it' is not a good enough reason for an article! killing sparrows 14:09, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 21:09, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Christianity Explored

Edit Conflict Strikes Again
Wow, I had something really lengthy and worthwhile, and then got the old "edit conflict" process that wiped it all out. Short version... Go with Matthew 28:19 instead of Mark 16:15, teach the world, leave preaching to others; walk the fine line of describing instead of promoting; respect the copyright; I can write the cold, unemotional version for comparison purposes if you're worried that it doesn't sound objective enough. Mandsford 21:47, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Questions regarding "Christianity Explored"
Would you care if I did an edit? You can always go to history and do the revert if you don't like any of the suggested changes. This would be more of a matter of style, and not just a spellcheck, but without any alteration of content or meaning, Technically, anyone can edit, but I like to ask.

The next big question is, what's the Emmaus Course consist of? I looked at the article about the Alpha Course, and the noted that CE, Alpha and Emmaus make up a trinity (right word?) of courses for study in the Anglican Church. Any cites to the Emmaus Course? Is it a three part series? (I'm guessing Alpha first (logically), Explored second, and Emmaus, naturally, at the end). Since it's a threesome of some sort, it makes sense that the three would be linked, but I didn't see a blue link for the third course. Mandsford 22:18, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

OK, I understand that now. My parents were Episcopalian, and I'm acquainted with the high mass, low mass, and whatever the in-between is called, all linked by the Book of Common Prayer and other constants in a system that permits each church to otherwise "adjust the settings". Very interesting. Mandsford 12:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I am out of town on a wikibreak, so I will have to get back to you to edit that. Bearian 20:38, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I made some minor edits to wikify the article. The Emmaus course needs a link, too. Bearian 02:10, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Bad fiancé
Thanks for your speedy tag, however, OR is not a reason for speedy delete nor are "concepts" A7 material, but your tag did lead me to find that his had been deleted before and G4 is one of the best reasons. :-) Thanks for helping to keep WP clean. Carlossuarez46 20:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Oops, I made an assumption: A7 refers to WP:CSD (criteria A7 for speedy deletion: no assertion of notability) and G4 refers to WP:CSD (criteria G4: recreation of material after deletion under WP:AFD - articles for deletion debate). Cheers, Carlossuarez46 00:00, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Conflict exchange
Based on your comment in which you thought 'Conflict exchange' was vandalism, I decided to do some checking. I discovered I was wrong. The common term in telecommunications for a telephone prefix that allows a large number of simultaneous incoming calls is called a choke exchange. I have moved the page over, changed the internal reference from conflict exchange to choke exchange and I will put in some references to show where the term comes from.

Spinodal decomposition‎
Say, you had tagged this as original research, but it looks to me as if it is something real (due to the infamous google-test.) If you meant to say this article in particular was totally different from the concept, or else still disagree, you may of course readd some deletion tag. Otherwise I suggest we let it stay for a while to see if some scholars come by and find out if it is good or not. Greetings from a fellow RCP, Greswik 19:59, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, you are of course right, I didn't think of the unreferenced.

Eurofighter_Typhoon
Ok, just had time to check myself, and the reference already given says: "The current forecast cost of Typhoon is £19,018 million, compared to £16,670 million approved at Main Gate." - that's likely what was meant by the original author. Anyway, I was just reading the article and noted how the paragraph made no sense (it says eurofighter cost increase compares favorably to f22) then changed it without own research or knowing anything about this topic, so I'll leave this to you :) --Allefant 09:44, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Lara Pulver
Hello there, I've just gone bulldozing in putting new stuff on the Lara Pulver article, and think I've deleted some of your changes. Can you just have a look and check for me, I'm useless. Just as a note, your help with the article is much appreciated as I believe the motive for tagging it for deletion was malicious. Another editor had deleted all but the opening sentence of the article, so I restored much of the information also putting a message on their discussion page and subsequently they have tagged the article for deletion. Lara is a notable subject for Wikipedia and has done a number of major prouductions and despite certain peoples personal beliefs, even a nomination for an Olivier Award is a prestigious honour in the UK, being the equivalent of a Tony Award in the USA. Cheers Crazy-dancing (talk) 11:15, 27 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Question - It seems there is support to keep the article now, so who makes the final decision and when does the deletion tag actually get removed? I don't pretend to know a great deal about the processes of Wikipedia, I just edit articles relating to things that I have personal knowledge about and hope that what I've added meets Wikipedia standards. Crazy-dancing (talk) 12:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Lara Pulver picture. I did not take the picture myself, but just uploaded it from a copy I have. It's not a copyright picture and is one she widely uses to 'publicise' herself, maybe you could recommend how to mark it up properly. Thanks Crazy-dancing (talk) 13:06, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Standalone OBD-II Scan Tools

Thanks for the Welcome
Thank you for your kind welcoming message on my talk page. Your tips were helpful and I hope that I will live up to the quality demanded by fellow wikipedians. I hope this message gets to you as I find the communication means here a bit unintuitive, but I am sure I will figure it out.

Taking briefly up your offer of assisstance. Could you inform me how a wikipage that is red-flagged as "lacking references and source material" can be put to Wikipedians so that this disclaimer can be potentially peer-reviewed and eventually removed? I added academic references and sources to the entry on Susan Strange here that does satisfy referentiality to all the content provided on wikipedia in that entry (personal note: Susan Strange was crucial in my PhD studies at LSE).

Again thanks, and I hope I'll figure out the comm system here on wiki... I give it a 75% chance that this reaches you :-D

Hi
Hi and thank you for the welcome to wikipedia. there is one question I have..I've asked others but it's somehow still hard for me to get, regarding uploading pictures to wikipedia. If I do find a picture from flickr that is licensed under creative commons share alike or whatnot, can I just upload it and link to the picture without notifying the user, or is it just understood that they allow their picture for use without asking since they already licensed their picture a certain way? I guess my question relates more to ettiquette than guideline but I just wanted to see how others might do it. Thank you! Dearlieusuck (talk) 18:54, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment - Hello Springnuts, I have no problem with this.  I believe I got involved through the J.J. Rouse piece where someone tried to link the two.  Thanks for the heads-up however. ShoesssS Talk 23:53, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
