Speedy deletion converted to PROD: InstantDB
Hello TenPoundHammer. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on InstantDB to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe CSD applies to the page in question. Thank you. Ged UK  21:58, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

I declined the speedy. You marked an incomplete article started only recently for speedy deletion as a test page. It actually is a valid stub. It says what the subject is, and gives references. (and when you do tag for deletion, please remember its required to say so in the edit summary). 108.21.112.38 (talk) 05:54, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: 1 E-7 m²
Hello TenPoundHammer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of 1 E-7 m², a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. -- Lear's Fool 03:46, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I've struck the above template, which I added accidentally; you're obviously sufficiently experienced not to need the newbie message! I've declined the A1 because as far as I can tell, the subject is very clear.  I'm still interested to see what your thinking was; I can certainly see some problems with this class of article.  -- Lear's Fool 03:49, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I think this is a relic of the "old" Wikipedia, created during a time when there were so many gaps in information that pretty much any new article was acceptable. I think that whole series of articles would be better merged into a single list at Orders of magnitude (area).  It would also solve the problem of the somewhat confusing article title, which mixes an ASCII type "E-7" with a modern superscript 2, something which was confusing to users even eight years ago as seen here.  —  Soap  —  02:01, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

I happen to agree with you on this, but, stupidly, an infobox with any substantive information in it is considered enough. I got slammed by the radical inclusionist crowd on this point at my second RFA so it has kind of stuck with me ever since. I can't imagine why someone would create an article without bothering to add a single sentence of actual text. It was previously a redirect, I think I'll revert it back until such time as someone can be bothered to string five words together to explain what this is.

Neither template was Refimprove! . I do not think that maintaince templates that do nothing for a reader (Refimprove is one of the exceptions) should appear in article space. Templates such as expand and one source are more suited to talk pages as they are inter editor communications and that is what the talk page is for. -- PBS (talk) 02:56, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brazil – People's Republic of China relations
Hi there, I ask that you follow WP:BEFORE next time prior to nominating an article for deletion. I'd like to assume good faith on this issue, but it is difficult to do when you nominate an article for deletion about the relations between countries with 37 billion US dollars in bilateral yearly trade. The simplest of goggle searches revealed many articles which cover the topic in-depth, some of which I have added to the article. Thanks--TM 18:05, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I'm stub-sorting and it would be helpful if you could remember to add stub tags in exactly the right place - after everything except inter-wiki links, as per WP:FOOTERS.

I'm not sure if you are aware, but when an editor deletes a PROD (such as at ) for any or no reason, it should not be restored. (See WP:DEPROD) For that reason, I undid your edit restoring the PROD tag. If you want the article to be deleted, you should take it to AFD.

Articles for deletion/Frank Martin (Transporter character)
Hi there. I was considering doing a non-admin closure, but while consensus appears fairly clear I feel that it's probably one established contributor short of NAC territory. I was wondering if you would be happy enough with the proposed solution; that while the character is not notable, the article now serves as an overview of the franchise, which is worthy of an article.

The Price Is Right runtimes and commercials
Hi. I see that you revised the runtime in the show's Infobox to exclude commercial time. The show has shrunk its runtime and expanded the commercial time over the years. A current episode is only about 38 minutes of content, as verifiable by watching the episodes at cbs.com. Do you think the Infobox entry should be changed to "38-48," or should we try to find out if it's possible to chart how the runtimes have decreased over the years? If the latter, I'm not sure where to start. Best, JTRH (talk) 05:23, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the response. What I'm specifically concerned about at the moment is a section of long, unsourced, opinionated OR (and long since tagged as such) about how the 1980's version did in the ratings against the various competing programs on CBS, and the usual "episode status" comments like "the show is believed to have been wiped" (believed by whom?). I'm not sure you need any background knowledge of the show to do those kinds of edits. JTRH (talk) 20:33, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Wheel of Fortune gameplay
It got split off from the main article at some point, because the parent was becoming large enough to be unwieldy. Most of it, I think, can be sourced from the parent article, though whoever did the splitting didn't move the cites along with it. I'd leave it for now, or tag it for improvement. Maybe someone will prune the parent down to the point that the gameplay information can be folded back into it. JTRH (talk) 19:38, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Dick Levy and sources
Hello, I want to explain something about how I frequently participate in AfD debates. Often, I have time to edit when I am away from a personal computer. Now, for example, I am in a motel in Mount Shasta, about 200 miles away from my home in the Napa Valley. I am editing on a Droid X smart phone. It is versatile but limited. I can do Google searches and read sources but I can't cut and paste URLs and format them as references with this device. I feel that I have the right to partipate in AfD debates when I have spare time and am away from my PC. If you take a look at my editing history, you will see that I create lots of new content, and work hard to add sources and expand and improve various articles up at AfD. I hope this helps you understand my good faith editing style a bit better. I will add a few sources to Dick Levy when I get home. Wishing you well. Cullen328 (talk)
 * Checking in to let you know that adding references to Dick Levy is still on my "to do" list. I am back from Mount Shasta but must now go to Los Angeles on business. Cullen328 (talk) 23:42, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * As I promised, I've added four sources to Dick Levy and have expanded the article somewhat. Cullen328 (talk) 23:38, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Deletion review: The 50 Most Loathsome Americans
In regards to Articles for deletion/The 50 Most Loathsome Americans, while I was sleeping, within 3.5 hrs of the article being listed for deletion it was gone, which gave me NO time to reply.

So, as per WP:DRV, this is Step 1 of Instructions:

"discuss the matter with the deleting administrator and try to resolve it with him or her first."

The request for deletion and the five votes cited:


 * not notable

Always an easy charge to make but work to defend against, I will cite the following as beginnings of references based on a simple Google search:

  

This is perhaps the most significant issue, but also one that should not have resulted in a speedy deletion.


 * "attacking"/G10

The page is not an attack because it merely restates the fact that the named individuals were listed in the "Loathsome" articles produced by The Beast. That an individual appeared in six different annual lists is a simple FACT. That The Beast used the word "Loathsome" in the title of the page is a simple fact. That a fact may be unflattering should not be criteria for removal.


 * "implicitly violates BLP"

A late edit (which I cannot quote directly because it was deleted!) mentioned that The Beast listed their reasons for inclusion of each individual. That an individual was listed by The Beast is again a simple fact and not slanderous.

Friends of the Five Creeks
Hello TPH. I don't really know you well, but during my years at Wikipedia, I've run into you a lot, and know you are a very seasoned wikipedian around here. I nominated a local organization for deletion not too long after it's creation, not our of some personal vandetta, but because it is really not notable. It only gets 18 google hits and 71 news hits (75% of both the ghits and news hits come a local periodical in Berkely) and the article says that the organization's main contibution has been saving part of creek alongside a mall parking lot. The article is well formatted, and I have nothing against the authors, but I am baffled as to how this has gotten so far out of control. I would just like you to take a look at it and let me know if organizations of this size acutally are notable and if perhaps I'm mistaken.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 13:49, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of 20th Century Masters – The Millennium Collection: The Best of Maureen McGovern for deletion
Hi, TPH. I had discovered that you put the article that I provided "20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Maureen McGovern" in the category of deletion nomination. I had tried to find other sources besides Allmusic, but all I could find were articles on this particular CD from the websites of Amazon, CDUniverse, Musicstack, and other websites of retailers. I honestly own a copy of this particular album, so the primary source of the article was the album itself. I'm not sure if this helps but I wanted to bring that to your attention nevertheless. I've tried to find reviews by other sources for AllMusic, but I haven't found any as of yet. It will be greatly appreciated if you could give me some time to find any reviews and sources.

Greetings Ten Pound Hammer, RE: The Shalom Show on TV. May I ask you to assisit me with this article that I submitted? I saw that you made a change and I apologize that I'm not adept. TtonyB was kindly helping correct things, but I don't know how to reach anyone and would like the article to have it's problems resolved. There are references available and it is also quite easy to verify and confirm that the asrtile is true and accurate. This television show has been broadcast since 1979 and is still on the air. I do not know how to provide References. I apologize also that I probably am not communicating with you the correct way. I wish this was as user-friendly as email. About References: I know many of the credible and famous people who have appeared on the show could serve as references, if they are acceptable pursuant to Wikipedia guidelines. Some names appear in the article and their names are hyperlinked to their organizations; These include recent guests on The Shalom Show include Senior Pastor Bob Coy of the Calvary Chapel, Dr. Abraham S. Fischler, Congressman Allen West, and Stan Chesley.

Proposed deletion of Erna Lazarus


The article Erna Lazarus has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This article has had no sources inserted since it was tagged in 2007. That's long enough. It should be rescued or deleted. If rescued, the filmography should be turned into a "Selected filmography" and cut down to six notable films, per guidelines

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. David in DC (talk) 17:03, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Erna Lazarus
I've nominated this article for deletion, after the PROD notice was lifted. The article has been tagged for no having no sources on the article's page since 2007. WP:DEADLINE does not extend into infinity. The only source the editor who deleted the prior prod notice could find was evidently not sufficient to establish notability. assuming good faith, if it we're, the editor would have put it into the article, instead of onto the talk page. I agree. It's not enough to pass WP:GNG, let alone WP:BIO. I can find no better. If (A) the tag has been there since 2007 and (B) the editor who opposes Prod can find no source that establishes notability, and (C) I can find none either, WP:DUCK.

Wizard of Odds
In 2009 "Wizard of odds" (no capitalization of "odds") redirected to Michael Shackleford, whose nickname is the "wizard of odds". Wizard of Odds (capital "Odds") redirects to The Wizard of Odds (game show). Wizard of odds is now the disambig page but not labeled as such.

Orphaned non-free image File:Deluxefan.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Deluxefan.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fixer23 (talk) 08:45, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Edit war
Hello. You appear to be involved in an edit war on Spliced (TV series). While the three-revert rule is hard and fast, please be aware that you can be blocked for edit warring without making 3 reverts to an article in 24 hours. You are not entitled to 3 reverts and are expected to cooperatively engage other editors on talk pages rather than reverting their edits. Note that posting your thoughts on the talk page alone is not a license to continue reverting. You must reach consensus. Continued edit warring may cause you to be blocked.

Cutlery Project
Hello,

I feel your template is misplaced. By the Criteria on miscellany for deletion it states if it's a Project to either make it a task force or tag it with an inactive template. It still falls short on that criteria as we have had activity on the project's talk page recently and just yesterday I cleaned up the "to-do" list in the main page and we've had activity in their fairly recently before that in 01/11 and 02/11. It may not be the most active project on Wiki, but it does help keep the related articles in a semblance of order. That said, I would not object to redesignating it as a task force under another project. Initially I considered it as part of the Military project's weapon task force, but those folks would only be interested in military knives, same as martial arts, tools, art, outdoors, cooking, or guns. This is a field that can span many different projects yet still remains somewhat specialized. Thanks for reading my thoughts on this.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 21:26, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi TPH, I was just reviewing the history of the Dollyrots page and I noticed that on September 17, 2010 (14:55) you reverted a backlink to a CSI episode.

3RR report
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively. In particular, the three-revert rule states that: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.
 * 1) Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Your contributed article, Laura Bryna


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Laura Bryna. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Laura Bryna - recently deleted at AFD. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Laura Bryna - recently deleted at AFD - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

Removing Speedy at Laura Bryna
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Laura Bryna, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion notice, which will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 20:17, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Laura Bryna for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Laura Bryna is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Laura Bryna until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Off2riorob (talk) 20:17, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm going to be blunt about some of the advice I will give you, about the recent chain of events, so I apologize in advance if I said anything out of line.
 * The recent post you made on the administrators' noticeboard attacked the nominator, which in all due respect, isn't a very attractive way to try and get an admin's attention to the deletion discussion. Please be careful when doing this. And also, if the article was listed at deletion review instead of being created so quickly after it had been deleted, perhaps it might have saved the trouble of all this mess and confusion. This would have been a much better way to go about it. Lastly, as AfD policy says, please don't remove CSD tags from articles you have created yourself.

Question about deletions
Greetings, You seem to be one of the main folks in the stuff for deletion category of edits so I thought you would probably have the answer to a question I have had for a while but never bothered to ask.

I have noticed that there are piles of subpages under the User namesspace for users who are banned. What is the policy on deleting these types of pages? My opinion is if the user is banned and has been for sometime then they do not need the following types of subpages. I have included some examples:


 * 1) Scripts such as User:Perseus, Son of Zeus/huggle.css
 * 2) User sandboxes especially those that are empty such as User:Perseus8235/Sandbox2
 * 3) Personalization pages such as User:Perseus, Son of Zeus/Editnotice. Especially when said pages do not appear to render anything on the users page.
 * 4) test pages and pages the user apparently created to build articles such as User:Perseus8235/Taipei Metro EMU C321 --Kumioko (talk) 17:15, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, is there someplace that mentions pages like those or is that just from experience? Also, would that be a Speedy deletion due to beingn a banned user or should I just submit that to the regular Misc for deletion? Those are just examples, there are a lot more. One thing to note though. User:Perseus, Son of Zeus/huggle.css is a personal settings page so it will not allow me to submit that one. I already tried. Thanks again for the help. --Kumioko (talk) 17:24, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Please Explain...
...this edit. I have since reverted to the revision on January 28 of this year which contained production information for the album, as well. There is no reason to remove it from an article about the album that the production information refers to. Also, the TPIR appearance was in promotion of the album and thus it belongs there. Someone actually added it to the Lonestar article the day it aired, and I've now added the reference that was added there (which I didn't realize existed). You seem to be a bit Delete-happy; take time to look for something before just deleting it, and add a reference if you can find one. Don't just randomly delete information without doing any research on your own; after researching, then a case could be made for deleting. CycloneGU (talk) 19:16, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I was trying to remove the erroneous personnel information added by an IP vandal, and the Canadian Country Albums chart info since that chart is on WP:BADCHARTS. If you'd checked the information in the personnel section vs. the band's article, you'd see that the personnel info was bogus — Keith Horne was never in Lonestar, and I don't even know who Michael Hill is. I didn't realize I'd accidentally removed the info about TPIR as well. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:20, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Totally wrong. The only name that matches is Biff Watson. Also, as someone who writes for a country music website, I know that Chuck Cannon is almost never a backing vocalist. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:24, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I actually found my way there on my own. I'm going to revert the edit back again, but I'm going to remove names as I find them erroneous.  Anything I don't find at AllMusic will be dutifully removed.  Give me a few minutes before quick-reverting, I went to make an edit and was greeted with "References".  CycloneGU (talk) 19:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

 * ETA: Turns out the IP vandal was copy-pasting the credits from the Lonely Grill album, which I added back in July 2008, and adding a couple of his own fabrications on top of that. I have that particular album, and have just double-checked it against the liner notes — everything checks out on Lonely Grill. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:34, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict)
 * Because I was going to have it trimmed down within five minutes, I was doing my own scan through the site. I work that way. =P
 * As it is now it matches up, the rest of the names are either composers (covered in the track listing) or things like "art", "design", "research" (research?), "photography"...all covered better in other areas if at all. I don't know if I'd call a background vocalist a "musician", however.  At the same time, a separate category for one person would be silly.  Either way, it matches up now and I'm happy with it.  CycloneGU (talk) 19:40, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The "composer" credits are just the songwriters on the album. I have no idea why Allmusic does that. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:41, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know that. I merely ignore those entries.  I think AllMusic likes to include them because they don't work on a one page format; they have five different pages for everything.  Can you imagine Wikipedia operating in that fashion?  So much hair would be littered in cyberspace from being pulled out that it wouldn't be funny.  CycloneGU (talk) 19:49, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

about the article you want to delete, I copy paste my answers
If you knew how to read, you would have red in the main article AND in the talk page, that 1: fastest-selling object means record sales of this object in one week and 2: that everybody in the web among authors and the audience uses this expression "fastest-selling album" for the highest sales in one week. The two others article about UK and USA in wikipedia use it too, why don't you go delete them too ? The truth is that you give pretexts to delete my article cause you disagree with some content, especially the truth it brings. I think you can't bear the fact you just discovered an other music than european or american music existed. You should better thank me to now having a little more culture than ask for deletion. Don't give me false pretexts ok ? Don't be hypocrit.

And moreover all the "best-selling albums" pages are original researchs ! Why don't you go delete them ? Hey ? Simple question. I think they don't bother cause they are close to your vision of music : european and american. But, accidently, there's a strong japanese music too. We can't bear this idea. So go deleting the new article. Look at yourself in the mirror and don't bring wikipedia policy in this debate : you only want to delete the article cause it brought you a new perspective about world music and you can't bear it.

Last thing : yes I don't know all the things about the wiki technology, but I'm learning, and then though I'm not a good wikiman like you, I worked hard to make this article as best as I could and keep make it better every day since its creation. The community must participate, not bring the articles to deletion. It's a coward thing, or it's nothing. Since the beginning I'm the only one who made things, except the guy who told me there were dead links. but he asked the article to deletion because of that ??? Come on, every article on wikipedia should be deleted if dead links were a lethal thing. And moreover, I fixed them. And added official sources. This last point show how hypocrit oyu are. The source hsow the sales in one week, so we can make a ranking of fastest-selling albums. It's the right expression. Do you have any culture ? Are you something more than wiki super-geeks ?

Dinah
I don't know what you mean by a source "consisting only of a track listing." The release date is given on the cited source, which is why it was cited.

In any case, I can't imagine what you'd consider a reliable source for an album, especially since the company issuing it is defunct, so their own site is unavailable. Frankly, if I had control of Wikipedia, I'd scrap this whole "reliable source" nonsense and go back to the way it was a few years ago. In fact that's why I've almost given up editing on Wikipedia. There are very few sources for information that qualify as "reliable sources" according to the strict definition. -- BRG (talk) 00:06, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

You have said, "And 'a few years ago', even then, it was NEVER acceptable for an article to be sourced to a website with literally nothing but a track list.)" A few years ago, there was no such thing as a requirement that anything be sourced, let alone that the source fall within some reliability guidelines. I am also puzzled, anyway, by your comment that the source is "nothing but a track list." The source cited gives, e. g. a release date, which is why it was cited. In any case, you have not come anyway near answering my question as to what you would consider adequate sourcing. I cannot imagine very many albums that have sources for the information that would exceed what the source I dave has -- please give me some guidance here as to what YOU would consider an adequate source! -- BRG (talk) 17:57, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Dinah Shore is hardly a "no-hit wonder." So your comment is irrelevant. I still want to know &mdash; and you continue to resist telling me, after I've asked at least THREE times &mdash; what is your minimum requirement for "adequate sourcing"? For it is clear that Dinah Shore was a major artist of the recording industry, and to me this means that the "notability" question is satisfied because of that fact. A collection of the most important hits by a major artist is per se notable. -- BRG (talk) 13:12, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi, TPH. Would you mind putting Bob Stewart (television producer) on your watchlist, if it isn't there already?

That said, I really would like to know how to get the episode count sourced, and I do understand that by Wikipedia's policies, the fact that no one but me has ever bothered to count them is a problem.

To each their own. Information from those websites is seldom more informative than what Wikipedia provides, especially TV.com, as their guide for Gumball is in shambles.

The Lost Trailers
I am new to Wikipedia. Yes, I am the publicist for Stokes Nielson of the Lost Trailers, as I disclosed early on. Our only agenda, however, is to make the page accurate.

We have used information from published reports and press releases and from Mr. Nielson's own archives as reference. laughingpenguin Laughingpenguin (talk) 07:01, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

 * The songfacts source was already there before redirect. I usually don't like including songfacts as a source, but it contained the exact text out of a book.

Wheel of Fortune
You are no doubt right about the special terminology such as Mystery, Free Play, and so on. I have watched the show only casually, when trapped in a motel with no Internet and nothing to read, for example. This makes me only dimly familiar with the details, and for that reason I don't think I could explain the game clearly. It would be difficult for anyone to explain this game to a Martian or, more plausibly, to someone who had never watched anything on television. If I were starting from scratch, I'd probably start by describing an actual game, play by play, including mention of the setting, audience, and "umpires". If that got too wordy (as it probably would), I'd compress the description to what I considered to be the essence of the play-by-play. I don't know if that approach would work, but I'd give it a try to find out. Hope this helps. It's just an idea. Finetooth (talk) 16:54, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

He's just trolling; his new hobby is disrupting discussions involving editors he particularly dislikes, like me. The best way to deal with him,in my opinion, and in the spirit of this discussion, is just to say "Forget him" and move on. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 20:15, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Actually, the preferred expression is: "Fizz off you old flipper!" And it's not trolling if you don't expect anyone to take it literally or seriously. I was called much worse, right on the Admin page, due only to my editing interest, and then my articles stalked and AfD'ed.

Lump sum redux
(In response to this)

Tell me, what does the following tell you about what a lump sum is:

"The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development distinguishes between "price analysis" and "cost analysis" by whether the decision maker compares lump sum amounts, or subjects contract prices to an itemized cost breakdown. In 1911, American union leaders including Samuel Gompers of the American Federation of Labor expressed opposition to lump sums being awarded their members pursuant to a new workers compensation law, saying that when they received lump sums rather than periodic payments the risk of them squandering the money was greater. The Financial Times reported in July 2011 that research by Prudential had found that 79% of polled pensioners collecting a company or private pension that year took a lump sum at their retirement, as compared to 76% in 2008.[8] Prudential was of the view that for many retirees, a lump sum at the time of retirement was the most tax-efficient option.[8] However, Prudential's head of business development, Vince Smith Hughes, said "some pensioners are beginning to regret the way they used the tax-free cash. The days of buying a shiny new car or going on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday may be gone."

It doesn't tell me anything -- and I've got a postgrad qualification in Finance. So I really don't see that the addition of such material "fixes" the article. <span style="font-family:Antiqua, serif;">HrafnTalkStalk(P) 18:44, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Keep on Walkin'
It came to my attention that on july 31th you seem to have amused yourself by redirecting a number of articles/entries titled either [Keep on Walkin'] or [Keep on Walking] to new locations, now filed under respectively [Keep On Walkin'] or [Keep On Walking], leaving a supposedly explanatory note that " On is an adverb in this context ", which is ofcourse completely irrelevant as an argument or motivation for your actions.The only thing relevant,which could possibly justify a such uninvited " favour " would be if the songs/albums in question are actually called [Keep On Walking'] / [Keep On Walking] with a capital O instead of with a minor o.Judging from promotional material this seems questionable in case of 2 or more of the examples.I wonder whereto you´d redirect an article on a fictive song/album titled [ i Iz b4 E x-abt off da See ] or [ you Has 2 bekiddin' ] Flight714 (talk) 00:50, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

"On" is a phrasal verb in this context ("Keep On"). MOS:CAPS says that phrasal verbs are capitalized. In this case, "Keep On" is the grammatically correct capitalization. The same would go for, say, "Turn On the Radio" or "Turn Up the Music" or "Keep On Loving You". Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 01:36, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

You seem to miss the very point that music; songs / albums and their titles just aswell as litterature etc are all bodies of artistic character and the creators of such are entitled to name their pieces of work anything they like, regardless of grammatical rules or internal Wikipedia regulations on how to titulate or list this or that.Such considerations are for librarians for internal use.Wikipedia is public domaine,just like a public library, and anyone should be able to find anything under it´s rightfull original name or title.If an artist has deliberately chose to name a song [ Keep on Walkin' ] with a lower case o, then all the wikipedia librarian can do is to loyally file it correct under that title, and not start a futile and highly irrelevant debate about nothing.The title is what the artist once decided and not subject for anyone to change to tally or be in accordance with personal ideas of correctness.Flight714 (talk) 02:30, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Hello
This is twice now that you have come and "attacked" me (for a lack of better term) on my talk page. Attacking me was really uncalled for. It's not like I go and vandalize the page like some of the previous people have done on there. I try and do the best I can and cussing at me is not the way to go about things. I'm giving you a fair warning now. Not to be mean but the next time you come and cuss at me over a simple mistake I will be reporting you to an admin for it. You do not do that on here and you must always assume good faith before and talk NICELY to people instead of going and cussing at them and what not. And just cause I do a lot of work on the page doesn't mean I did it. It's possible that another contributor did it by accident and it got missed in the editing, but going to me and cussing at me isn't right. I'm only being fair and I'm asking you nicely now to please stop coming onto my talk page and doing that. Thank you. JamesAlan1986 (talk-contribs) 19:35, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

John Cowan (musician)
You wrote about this article which appears to be the biography of a living person but without any reliable sources. It has been tagged as requiring such sources for 3 years now. Do such sources exist? If so please add them now or the article may be deleted. Andrew Davidson (talk) 22:13, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

I see that you have tagged the article for deletion yourself. Doesn't that tag go on the article page, not the talk page? Andrew Davidson (talk) 22:28, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

I wouldn't worry too much about that. I had a look for sources for John Cowan. I found that there were lots of people by that name - murderers and such. There didn't seem to to be much about the musician. The John Cowan title will probably end up being a disambiguation page. Andrew Davidson (talk) 22:43, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Cliff Hangers for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Cliff Hangers is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Cliff Hangers (3rd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. --Gh87 (talk) 11:41, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

The relief from FA status is just what was needed ! This is brilliant ! Another editor has also noticed and suggested a TOC overhaul, even wrote up a draft on the talkpage, although, it's too early in the updating to do that I think, the article is in flux with a cleanout and so forth.

Article of concern
I noticed that you nominated NewsChannel for deletion a week or so ago, and it was deleted via consensus at AfD (very correctly, in my opinion). Could you take a look at Eyewitness News and see if you think that it suffers from the same problems? To me, it looks like the creator of the page is trying to argue that there is some sort of "Eyewitness News" brand, when, as far as I can tell, it's just a term that was used by a bunch of news stations. I've previously rendered some negative opinions about this topic in other forums, though, so I don't feel comfortable nominating it for deletion.

Research into the user pages of Wikipedians: Invitation to participate
Greetings,

My name is John-Paul and I am a student with the University of Alberta specializing in Communications and Technology.

I would like to include your Wikipedia user page in a study I am doing about how people present themselves online. I am interested in whether people see themselves in different ways, online and offline. One of the things I am looking at is how contributors to Wikipedia present themselves to each other through their user pages. Would you consider letting me include your user page in my study?

With your consent, I will read and analyze your user page, and ask you five short questions about it that will take about ten to fifteen minutes to answer. I am looking at about twenty user pages belonging to twenty different people. I will be looking at all user pages together, looking for common threads in the way people introduce themselves to other Wikipedians.

I hope that my research will help answer questions about how people collaborate, work together, and share knowledge. If you are open to participating in this study, please reply to this message, on your User Talk page or on mine. I will provide you with a complete description of my research, which you can use to decide if you want to participate.

Thank-you,

John-Paul Mcvea

Do NOT replace speedy tags after an admin has declined them.
Regarding Triumverate, as I said in my edit summary, I was going to decline that speedy request even before I saw that another administrator had done so. So your replacing it again because of the so-called misunderstanding was still invalid. Do not do this. I see from Spartaz's comment that there has been previous discussion of this behavior of yours.

I think your edit comment here was unfair, and against my will I find myself a bit offended. It is not like I don't contribute enough as it is, with more than 11k pages on my watchlist and too longs hours spent every day. I appreciate what you and other editors contribute and I try not to remark on how they choose to spend their precious time. I don't really remember, but my guess is that at the time I hit this article I was going through a series of articles doing a specific task and I just wanted to focus on what I was doing. I saw something else that needed doing so I tagged it, thinking it is better than ignoring the problem, and maybe I'll return to it later (which I forgot to do), or someone else will, like yourself. I'll probably be sorry I even mentioned it in an hour, but anyway, perhaps I just expect more from someone as experienced as yourself. --Muhandes (talk) 07:34, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Recent Richard III edits
I appreciate your wanting to clean up questionable material on WP, but I think on Richard III (film) you were overzealous on certain counts.

Your best edits here are wanting to tag with the template that Olivier only wanted to cast Brit actors, and Olivier's motives for breaking the fourth wall. The assertion that Walton had a recurring musical theme could be WP:OR, though is easily verified from watching the movie.

I think you slightly misunderstand the use of the "weasel" tag, and something else should be used for the phrase "could be considered". Weasel is meant to be used when the text is vague about the outside support for a statement.

You were harsher on DVD Movie Central than on DVD Beaver, but the editor of DVD Movie Central is a known Hollywood film technician, a published novelist, and has appeared on the Colbert Report, so in spite of his self-published status, this still fully complies with WP standards for "reliable sources". (WP explicitly allows self-published material by anyone also published in known reliable venues, such as the personal blogs of known New York Times reporters, etc.)

TO cite Amazon.com to establish that a particular CD exists and to get its basic description is completely legitimate. Please don't ever tag anything like that.

Even more obviously, to cite Premiere magazine to establish that a film was listed by Premiere on some "100 films..." list is entirely legit, and you should never tag anything like that.

You don't need to tag a subset of the "cast" section with a tag that says you need to put into prose rather than list. The "House of York" section was a subset of the "cast" section.

A gray area is the credibility of the "Richard III society". They were originally established to push a point of view, that R3 did not commit the crimes attributed to him. However, this isn't exactly a "fringe" view. While this is believed by a minority of historians, it's a very substantial minority (as opposed to the very slim minority of historians who think Edward DeVere wrote Shakespeare's plays) and is heavily debated among serious scholars. Furthermore, The cites in the article to the R3 society are not pertaining to their main thesis.

Finally, there is absolutely no reason at all to doubt the credibility of online essays published by Criterion Collection, none, nichts, nada. They are one of the best and most important distributors of DVDs around, one of the first to introduce bonus features, letterboxed films, and they only release old classics in pristine cleaned-up editions. The were the first DVD alternate audio commentaries, and still have some of the best audio commentaries out there always by well-known film historians, and they also debuted "special edition" DVDs. They are a pioneer. Frankly, of all your tags, your tagging this as a possibly unreliable source is absolutely baffling.

Feel free to restore your three tags, but the other tags you made are, I think, unwarranted and should be left alone.--WickerGuy (talk) 17:09, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

As I noted above, citing the Richard III Society is a grey area, since they push a POV, but not a fringe POV. However, neither of the R3 Society cites has anything to do with that POV, and they in turn cite sources. The cite from them regarding Olivier's feelings about Jed Harris in turn cites Olivier's own book On Acting, so that should be fine. The cite from them regarding Olivier's alteration of the play is their author quoting another critic (John Cottrell) who wrote of full biography of Olivier. It would be technically better for our article to cite the original autobio of Olivier and Cottrell's bio of Olivier, but if we don't know the page numbers, I think the cites from these in the articles on the R3 Society page can stand. Also in the second case, the R3 Society writer is Paul Trevor Bale, an established film editor in the British film industry.--WickerGuy (talk) 19:34, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * MOre on R3 Society edits


 * My own fixes & "filibuster"
 * I have changed the sentence you tagged about casting from "Olivier chose to cast only English actors" to "Olivier cast only English actors". You also tagged with a very dubious assertion about why Olivier chose to break the fourth wall (talk to the audience) which I'm pretty certain is just false, so I have deleted that one. The third bit you tagged with  I think can stay, but I am going to reword it slightly.


 * A "filibuster" is an attempt to delay a decision by prolonging discussion with obstructionist intent. I honestly don't think I have done that. Rather, since your tags were so extensive and copious, I chose to analyze each and every one of them, since each of them was problematic for a slightly different reason.

R3 Edits Redux
I think you are right that we cannot use DVDBeaver as a "reliable" source, especially as the author (gary Tooze) has been accused on three separate occasions of plagiarism. I was slightly inclined to cut him some slack as he has been interviewed in venues WP considers reliable, but he has never actually published in such venues, which is the formal WP criterion for permitting self-published.

However, the amazon review is a different story. WP guidelines (at WP:RELIABLE) explicitly state (emphasis added by me) "self-published media...are largely not acceptable. This includes any website whose content is largely user-generated, including the Internet Movie Database, Cracked.com, CBDB.com, and so forth, with the exception of material on such sites that is labeled as originating from credentialed members of the sites' editorial staff, rather than users."

As the Amazon review was written by their editorial staff rather than an Amazon user, it clearly passes the criterion as stated above.

Thank you for your vigilance. Regards & cheers--WickerGuy (talk) 01:34, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

PS A quick check establishes that DVDBeaver has been used as a source in about 15 other movie articles, which of course proves nothing re Other stuff exists. I think Tooze's technical knowledge of the film transfer process gets him some brownie points, but he still, IMO, fails the WP criterion for reliability (as you stated).--WickerGuy (talk) 01:45, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Deleting portals
Why not go through user:Zetawoof/PortalList and get rid of some of the really awful stuff, rather than starting with featured portals? Here's one for you: Portal:Baroque period, abandoned after a few edits in 2011 and left as just an introduction with no content. Or Portal:Cisco Systems, a mess of redlinks from 2009. Portal:Dragons isn't exactly a work of art, with no content, just a front page. Your choice of the three portals you've nominated for deletion isn't showing you at your best.

Michael Ray Bower
Though we're lacking SIGCOV on this actor, it has been confirmed he hits WP:ANYBIO in that when younger he did receive a notable award for "Best Young Actor Co-starring in a Cable Series" for Salute Your Shorts, and his body of work is itself verifiable. My thought is that even if fa topic might fail WP:GNG, the instructions at WP:N state "A topic is also presumed notable if it meets the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right"... sending us to the subject-specific WP:ENT and its criteria of "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." I know SIGCOV is the easiest way to determine notability... it's just that guideline does not mandate it as the only way.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:47, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Krakatoa
Originally the three current (? I havent looked them for a long time) and rather messy articles were one and when it was vandalised it was sheer hell trying to work out what had been put in or left out and keep the one article to make sense.

There is a project that tried to prevent ad hoc deletions of popular culture related articles - however I think I can see your point (I think, about the article) about this one (the other articles about Krakatoa are as messy and deserve a lot of attention).

I will try to look at it more carefully - and would rather see a pruned article remain in existence than for it to be bazzooka'd out completely - there is a brilliant book about how Tibet was used in western culture to contain a range of western culture ideas about the exotic - Krakatoa has not has such a book (but deserves one, specially about fears about volcanoes etc) - but I do believe a worked on article deserves keeping... cheers and have a safe christmas SatuSuro 09:48, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

popular culture sections
In the last week you seem to have removed about two dozen or more popular culture sections from articles; some are minor sections containing 2 or 3 dubious references, but most of them are important, containing the use of the theme as an important  element of notable and even famous cultural works, which can easily be documented. there is no rule against this material, and your reckless and indiscriminate removal appears to me both pointy and unconstructive. I have reverted most of the significant ones. (In cases where you seem to have deleted the entire section because of one foolish entry, I restored it without the entry. One or two other editors did similarly before I got to them. In one case, you reverted them back, without discussion. I suggest one of two courses: I think the best course is to examine the list for insignificant individual items, and remove them one at a time, discussing on the talk page any challenged item. Alternatively, start an rfc on the existence of these sections. If you do the first, I'll certainly support you with respect to any of the nonsense that sometimes makes up a usually small portion of these sections . If you choose the second, I'll oppose you as strongly as I can, andI remind you that in the last year or two I have won the great majority of the AfDs on such articles   that I think worth engaging in. I think the consensus will be firmly in favor of them, but you of course have the right to challenge it. But if you revert the restoration of these sections I will do what I reasonably can to stop you. We've fought about this on and off over the years, but even if I agreed with you, I would still say that I think you're going much too fast and drastic to accomplish anything. I consider them not just encyclopedic, but of essential importance--the relationship between cultural works is what makes up culture. .  DGG ( talk ) 07:41, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

A nice round robin
Hi,

Are you still interested in the idea of at least some non-admins being able to view deleted pages? I understand that the proposal was shot down previously by foundation counsel; however I believe I have at least two possible answers to their concerns.

One possibility is to make this prospective (apparently the antonynm of retrospective although I'm not so sure) - that is to say that only edits deleted after its implementation can be viewed. For revisions such as libelous edits or copyright violations and so on, there can be a hard delete, lying some way between this soft delete and oversight, which will function just like a present deletion. Admins could also have the power to toggle a deletion from hard to soft (or to undelete) - so selected deletions made before this feature is implemented could be made soft.

The second possibility is to introduce a procedure somewhat like RFA where users are given permission to view deleted edits by the community. As admin privileges are currently granted not just based on trust in general, but also on trust that the tools will be used appropriately, there is a much greater pool of users who would be eligible to be given this permission.

And of course, it is perfectly possible to use both of these systems at once.

I have cross posted this to a few users who were active in the discussion in 2008 - I don't feel this is a violation of CANVASS because I have not made the proposal myself - the reality is I need an experienced Wikipedia with some "street cred" to make it. I already attempted to steer a discussion of a similar proposal this way, but sadly that discussion is irretrievable (see here - or even better, don't!). Because I have posted this to a few users, I would be greatful if you would reply at User_talk:Egg Centric/Proposal and perhaps we can get a discussion going!

Thank you!

Destiny USA article rebuild
I'm creating a new Destiny USA/Carousel Center page when the mall renames later this year. Basically, I'm merging the information from the Destiny USA, History of Destiny USA, and Carousel Center page into one page with a newly expanded history, which will replace the "Former Anchors" list and make it a bit more like the Walden Galleria article. User:TheListUpdater/Destiny USA is the page. I've done some work on it, but it still needs a bunch of work: there's definite gaps in the history, several bare references, and clutter from the old Carousel Center page. I ask that if you do take a look at it, please don't remove anything, and just add the < ! -- tag if needed. TheListUpdater (talk) 18:26, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Re: your Edit
Hiya !! I saw your edit taking out the "anchors" section on Bayshore Mall. I'm sure you are totally correct, but could you give a better explanation of why you took out this historical information? The only explanation on the edit summary is "Anchors: No". Since that section was there when I started trying to add citations, and looks like it was there for a long time, could you tell me why you removed it entirely with no explanation or help on the talk page? You removed the only reference to Macy's being in the mall as well as the history of the anchors of the mall. Thank you for your explanation! Ellin Beltz (talk) 05:05, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the explanation. I couldn't find an Internet source for Macy's either, but I have correspondence out with the company to find if they ever were in Bayshore.  If they say they were, it's a simple trip to the library for old newspapers for a source.   It's certainly not important enough to worry about either way.  Thank you for telling me about the list, unfortunately that's what was there for five years before I touched the page, so I left it.  I tend to be bold by adding citations, not taking away things that were there when I started poking.  But thank you for the changes and the knowledge.

Question
TPH, I was wondering if there's any good way to look through Wikipedia for articles that got tagged for improvement (for example, improving sourcing from being nearly non-existent) years ago that haven't been touched and that might therefore be good to look over for possible removal. The "Free Independent Traveler" discussion spurred this thought...it was tagged initially something like five or six years ago (it may have been some sort of "fad term" at the time) and never got improved.Tyrenon (talk) 06:15, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch. I'm not sure how to use the bot to generate a list of "look these over" articles. However, I also got a link to WP:DUSTY from it, so that's a good starting place for now. Thanks a bunch.Tyrenon (talk) 06:30, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

About List of people in Playmen ...
Hi TenPoundHammer, I'm writing to ask you to (at least temporarily) withdraw this nom, as I'm working to adress the problem you have pointed. About the red links, the 90% of them are notable Italian actresses, they have articles in other-lenguages-Wikipedias and have enough books & news sources and film/tv/stage credits to pass WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR and to have an article in WP; sadly the actual situation is mainly caused by a general poorness of articles about Italian genre cinema, that from about one year I'm trying to repair. As said by WP:LSC, it's reasonable to expect the articles about these persons could be forthcoming in the (short) future, and I'm personally working on that, as from yesterday I created articles about Martine Brochard, Jenny Tamburi, Ines Pellegrini, Lory Del Santo, Anna Maria Rizzoli, Maria Rosaria Omaggio, Nadia Cassini, Erna Schürer, Tinì Cansino and more.

No prejudice in speedily renominating these articles in one month if the red links will still appear too much.

Accidental removal of content from Articles for deletion/Log/2012 February 15
Hi TenPoundHammer,

I noticed that an edit you made earlier today using Twinkle seems to have accidentally removed a lot of listed deletion discussions from Articles for deletion/Log/2012 February 15. I think I've added them back in, but I just wanted to let you know that something went wrong with that edit. I don't use Twinkle, so I don't know what might have happened. If you don't know what caused the problem, maybe someone should report this error to whoever maintains Twinkle. Calathan (talk) 22:53, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

My confusion on how to remove a redirect, or propose to.
Thanks for the tips. I've never tried/proposed to delete anything before, and for the special case of a redirect, I found the docs a bit of a hard maze to wander. I was trying to remember what I've done on private MediaWiki installations, which is obviously different.

So, don't blank it; OK. And I guess I tagged it for the wrong queue. (And I don't know if tag or queue are the wrong words there...) This was my first try using Twinkle. "XFD" in the Twinkle menu seemed to be as close as I could get. This may not come up much, with a redirect, but what is the best way propose redirect deletion, whether with Twinkle or without? Thanks! Ale And Quail (talk) 04:15, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

...Ok. So just 'XFD' from the Twinkle menu would do it, along with no misguided futzing with the page. Thanks. Ale And Quail (talk) 04:23, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Synthesis
The main problem is that the Bubbling Under charts have different rules than the main charts. You cannot drop from the Hot 100 to the Bubbling Under chart. This means that if the song that would be number 101 on an extended Hot 100 has already had a higher position, it won't be number 1 on the Bubbling Under chart. Thus, "Extended Hot 100" number 101 is not the same song as "Bubbling Under" number 1. By listing a song as 101 in a discography, we are claiming the two are equivalent when they are not. That's not only a WP:SYNTH violation, it gives the wrong answer.

Whitburn uses a shorthand to include the Bubbling Under chart, and that's his business. The way it is done on Foo Fighters discography is the only way I know of to include a Bubbling Under position in a discography and comply with our policies.&mdash;Kww(talk) 11:15, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Inappropriate rationales in AfD Nominations
Please review User talk:TenPoundHammer/Archive 14. In Articles for deletion/List of April Fool's Day jokes (2nd nomination), you again made an argument that is entirely unsupported by the text of the quoted policy. Rather than delivering a template warning you that you're acting in a disruptive manner, I thought I'd try again with a personal appeal: please stop this. It's disruptive. If you can't actually come up with a real reason to nominate something for deletion, then you really have no business starting such a nomination in the first place. It may be a bit more work if you forced yourself to nominate articles using policies and guidelines in accord with what they actually cover, but I am confident that any article that ought to be deleted by policy can, in fact, have a valid rationale written for it that does not rely on deception. If you continue to nominate articles based on inapplicable policies, I will seek sanctions on you, such as a topic ban from AfD. I sincerely hope that will not be necessary.

Steven Curtis Chapman
Not sure why you seem to be going after articles that I have made/edited in that subject, but just because an article is poorly written or sourced does not mean it is automatically a redirect. If you took more than a cursory look at "Dive" in Google, there is certainly enough information to warrant a page with the Dove Awards and all - maybe alterting, you know, the author of the page is better than a decision to redirect for no apparent reason. FTSOTC is even more notable, although certainly not that well written - once again, you could tell me that and I'd fix it.

Hi
I'd started a Propose for Deletion on the Dennis Morriseau article and it was undone by someone who'd edited the article heavily, so I feel I've gotten myself involved yet again in something I don't really know enough about. The article seems to be pretty clearly mostly based on Morrisseau's own self promotion and publication, rather than any actual or real accomplishment. I looked at the process you pointed me to but am having difficulty figuring what to do next. I think the article's potential deletion is worthy of discussion but need some help with wading through what must seem to be a simple process to more experienced editors.

Hi TenPoundHammer. You recently proposed the deletion of Gallery (APA/'zine). While I do not intend to contest this proposal, I only happened to learn about it because I had the article watchlisted. Notification of projects tagged on the talk page (e.g. WikiProject Furry), as suggested in prod, would be appreciated by project members, and in some cases might help to find the sources you could not.

Moving on from the AN/I thread
Dear TenPoundHammer: This is Tristessa here, the admin who jumped in from the blue on the AN/I thread. Please don't hate me; I come in peace. I hope you don't mind me taking this to your talk page; the AN/I thread has (rightly) been closed due to lack of consensus for administrative action. I'd like to discuss a few points with you, and make a few suggestions.

Whilst it's indubitable that you do great work, and lots of it &mdash; I'd politely point out that a lack of active opposition doesn't absolve you of responsibility to consider editors' concerns. I mean that purely from a feedback-based perspective. It could be an incorrect perception on my part, but it seems as though you view any sort of criticism of your work by anyone as an attack against you. Related to this is a pattern of riding out storms: editors stating, as you did at AN/I, things like "nobody except X opposes me" as reasons for just moving on without addressing the concerns can create frustrating popularity contests that are likely to repeat endlessly.

I proposed the WP:TBAN given the poor quality of dialogue at the RFC/U, in the hope that it might force you to put the redirect button aside and talk. It wasn't meant as a punishment. It went down like a lead balloon, and probably quite rightly. But would, I ask, it hurt to hold off redirecting articles while they're at AfD for a little while, and to talk to users a little more patiently? Would it hurt, similarly, to explain and discuss patiently and with an assumption of good faith? Would it hurt to slow down a little, calm down, breathe a little more deeply; to understand that opposition is a useful means of gaining feedback as a Wikipedia editor? I hope you may consider this. You might have an easier time as a result, and the editors you've got into conflict with may hopefully understand their own issues better also. With best wishes, --Tristessa (talk) 21:41, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

I have noticed in a few articles of musical groups that in the 'past members' section of the background section, some members who were in a particular group at one point or another that have since passed away have the term 'deceased' in parentheses. I have done such next to Ralph Ezell's name in the Shenandoah article. Should that be acknowledges as so? Thanks for the info. 1zackman (talk) 02:17, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Re: Alejandro Garcia
Not according to the hoax template; if it's a case of puffery you can argue for its deletion as an advertisement, which would probably be fine in this case, but that's not strictly speaking a hoax, which is completely made up. I'm not really arguing that the page should stay, and I am not planning on making a case that it should, but I am concerned about process here. Chubbles (talk) 16:51, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Re: Cameron Finley
Well, it does appear that, after an initial glance, the significant coverage I found on the subject himself was written at the time of his Beaver role...I'll take a deeper look later. As for the article's survival, as I stated in my de-prod edit summary, I believe his case merits having the AfD discussion, at least. I'm interested to see what other people might have to say.  Gongshow  Talk 03:18, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the compliment. I figure most AfDs get started over concerns about sources, so it just makes sense to post my findings when I find something, support someone else's findings if they beat me to it/find something I missed, or support deletion/redirection if I find nothing. It also helps to think of an AfD as a discussion rather than a debate. The latter seems to have more drama, and who on the Internet wants that?!  Gongshow  Talk 20:42, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

You ask (on my talk page) a fair question. Clearly we all agree that this article merited deletion, which has now happened. It had already been nominated for speedy deletion twice under G3, and twice it had been held (not by me) not to qualify under this criterion. You may feel that I was using overkill, and you may be right, but by both !voting at the AfD and adding a prod template I was attempting to make doubly sure that it went!--<b style="color:red;">Anthony Bradbury</b><sup style="color:black;">"talk" 10:46, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

I think if we're going to use Joel Whitburn's books as a source, it's only logical to go by what they actually say, and I think it's impractical and needlessly complicated to have a dozen footnotes for a discography like Johnny Cash's, but I'm basically done adding Bubbling Under peaks anyway. Eric444 (talk) 21:36, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Because it makes things overly complicated and directly contradicts the source. Whitburn's books state in no uncertain terms that the songs peaked at 1xx. At any rate, I finished adding all the country bubbling under peaks yesterday. Eric444 (talk) 22:03, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Proposed changes to the criteria for speedy deletion
I would like to propose some changes to the criteria as follows:
 * Merge A9 into A7. The two are very similar, as they both deal with notability issues. (I hope you're not offended by this since A9 was your idea.)
 * Merge U1 into G7. The two are very similar, so why have a separate criterion for userspace?
 * Expand G12 to include any page that could get Wikipedia into legal trouble, including files meeting criteria F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F9 or F11. Those F-criteria deal with copyright and licensing issues, just like G12. Oh, and there's something else the speedy deletion criteria need to cover so Wikipedia isn't on the FBI's Most Wanted list: illegal files. There are some things that are illegal to display (I think you know what I'm talking about) and must go quickly so Wikipedia doesn't get in legal trouble. Illegal files could be covered by G12 too.

And I propose 2 new criteria:
 * A11: Unencyclopedic articles with no valuable history, including dictionary definitions, how-to articles, essays, things made up one day and others. A11 would not include articles that could become encyclopedic with a reasonable amount of effort. I know this will be controversial, but please think about it before automatically !voting oppose.
 * G13: Content forks, especially disruptive ones, where there is no reason to keep. A10, T3, F1 and F8 could be merged into G13. Why have four separate criteria when one will do?

I have proposed these changes to help simplify the criteria, avoid getting Wikipedia into legal trouble and save time pointlessly debating unencyclopedic articles that wouldn't stand a chance of surviving AfD. Thank you for reading these proposed changes, and please share your opinion below. I need your opinions. C h r o m a Nebula  (talk)   16:13, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

Thoughts, here?
Spotted on NPP - Ferroconcrete (disambiguation). Points to Reinforced concrete, as well as Ferroconcrete, which was, until today, a redirect to the former link on ferroconcrete. The article is now about a branding company which may or may not be notable.

Not sure what to do here. Initial instinct is to revert and speedy the DAB as unnecessary, but I'd like a second opinion on this.

-- Dennis The Tiger  (Rawr and stuff) 02:13, 4 May 2012 (UTC)


 * My only concern, here, is going to be the fact that Ferroconcrete has its history as a redirect, and the sources would say, as you point out, is that an A7 would not be appropriate (assertion of notability comes with the sources). I'll try a revert and db the dab, see where that goes.  You think an admin might want a look at this? -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 02:25, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Discography Question
Hi TPH! I have been working on Johnny River's discography page and I have a question on where to list some of his albums. Many of his albums were recorded live at the Whisky A Go Go but they are what the singles were released from. Should I list them with the live albums or the studio albums. When I think of live albums I think of live versions of the studio version, but in this case they are the same thing. It sounds like a dumb question but figured I would ask. It looks like 4 of his first 5 albums were all recorded in front of an audience. Thanks. Gilliganfanatic (talk) 16:29, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Suggestions for resolving deletion concerns
Hi. I've been reading some recent, threads where some concerns have been raised about some of your deletion work. First, let me thank you for your hard work in trying to improve Wikipedia. Second, I think it would allay much of the concern if you were to make a clear statement voluntarily undertaking certain reasonable restrictions. I give some suggestions below. Please don't take this as a judgment of your past behaviour on each point; I appreciate that some of then intersect with undertakings you have already made elsewhere or things you may already be doing. Feel free to change them as you see fit. I hope this is helpful for you. Bovlb (talk) 18:48, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Take a one month break from deletions.
 * Never file a AfD for an article you have filed an AfD for before.
 * Never file a AfD within a year of the last AfD on that article.
 * If a PROD is rejected, do not file an AfD for a week, and only have you have engaged in discussion on the article talk page.
 * When you want to bring a group (e.g. 6 or more) of related articles to AfD for the same reason, test-file one and then file the others only if the first is closed "delete". Also, mention the group in the AfD and notify the relevant WikiProject.
 * Withdraw AfD nominations promptly when you foresee an "obvious keep".
 * Be moderate in AfD comments. Don't badger !voters.  Comment on the policy arguments not the editors.
 * Be dilligent in looking for sources for notability deletions.
 * Interpret CSD criteria narrowly.


 * I don't think there's much about the recent ANI silliness that suggests TPH needs to change much about what he's doing. The discussion of "ratios" is ridiculous. Editors are quite able to change their "ratios" right before an RfA, etc. by not nominating controversial articles. That we have an experienced editor who still does that, is a good thing. I think most of those "suggestions" are downright insulting given the triviality of the "concerns" that prompted it. And many go against the spirit of AfD and our community. I'm not speaking for TPH at all. Just voicing my opinion. If you're looking for an opportunity to challenge TPH on his deletions, that was not the ideal opening for it. Shadowjams (talk) 05:37, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for voicing your opinion, but I'm really not trying to challenge anyone here. The two threads I linked to above show that a number of editors have raised concerns about TPH's approach to deletion, and I see no sign that they're going to stop doing so.  My suggestions are aimed at helping TPH find a way to defuse the situation.  Leaving aside the first one, none of these suggestions are especially burdensome, and all of them would have significant support (but not consensus) as policy.  As I said above, some of them are in line with things TPH has already said.  It is certainly within the norms of our community for an editor whose practices have been questioned to this extent to explain how they intend to address those concerns in future.  In particular, I would hope that some set of assurances like those above would be sufficient to forestall any further rounds of fault-finding and finger pointing.  I think that people would prefer such pro-active clarity for the future over any amount of defense of the past. Cheers, Bovlb (talk) 06:21, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Could you possibly explain this edit (which you also made to a few other pages)? The former owner of the Jazz is probably notable, especially if he's the one who moved the team, so a red link seems OK to me. We needn't worry about disambiguation until someone creates an article at that space. Zagal e jo^^^ 02:22, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Hm. I've never heard that before. I do see some merit to your edits, but misdirected links are just a minor annoyance, and are easily fixed. I don't think it's something you should worry about too much. There's no shortage of other things that need fixing. :) Zagal e jo^^^ 03:09, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Deletion of Doghouse Diaries
Although the article has been deleted, I wasn't able to get any response for my last edit, which includes another reference from webmagazine, MakeUseOf. I agree some of these webmagazines I have never heard of, but that doesn't really qualify them to be unreliable sources. For example MakeUseOf, has a full editorial board, and not just from the magazine, but also from its wiki entry it seems like a reliable web magazine. In any case, this was my final comment, if because of this you change your mind, please let me know what I could do.
 * I have added yet another reference which puts doghouse diaries in the list of Top 8 web comics. This was in the web-magazineMakeUseOf, an independent media magazine, with an independent editorial board. MakeUseOf, Mashable and Gizmodo, each of them have covered Doghouse Diaries well enough to qualify it to be notable. The objection however could be as to whether the above sources are reliable or not. Here are my points why they could be considered reliable
 * They are not related to Doghouse Diaries, nor does it seem that they are trying to unfairly promote Doghouse Diaries.
 * They have editorial system, for which I refer to their corresponding wiki articles, for example the editorial for MakeUseOf is Editorial staff. Each one of them has an Editor-in-chief and so on.
 * The clarity of this discussion would be enhanced if the other wiki editors could cite the reason why they think the above references cannot be taken as reliable. Points like Mashable is a trivial source, is a trivial argument.Shashi B Jain (talk) 09:01, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I understand, Wikipedia is a place where Justin Bieber on Twitter is considered notable, and a webcomic read by thousand of users every day, talked about in popular web-magazines, discussed in a blog by serious academicians from Standford, UPenn etc as 'not so notable'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shashi B Jain (talk • contribs) 10:02, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Regarding your nomination for speedy deletion of Brocas Helm; always remember to check the talk page and article history first before nominating an article for speedy deletion. With the exception of newly discovered copyright violations, articles that have survived an AFD cannot be nominated for speedy deletion.

Poor nomination judgment--withdraw vs. topic ban
As I've said in both Articles for deletion/Reaver (Firefly) (2nd nomination) and Articles for deletion/Browncoat (2nd nomination), you have either failed to make the most basic efforts to search for reliable sources to demonstrate notability, or you have made such efforts in an ineffectual manner. I really don't think you're going to like how those AfD's turn out. I strongly suggest that you withdraw them now, and topic ban yourself from AfD for six months, so the community doesn't do it for you. There will undoubtedly be some who will defend your nominations based on their own ideas of what AfD should be, possibly enough to save you from an AfD topic ban yet again, but you're just not learning from your mistakes. Every few weeks, here we are again, with you trying to delete something so clearly notable that I legitimately wonder what on earth you're thinking. Take a break, create content, or even better improve some of our notable-yet-the-article-currently-sucks content, rather than trying to get it deleted, please. Jclemens (talk) 07:33, 5 July 2012 (UTC)


 * TPH has a userbox boasting that he is #27 in the list of most active Wikipedians. Hasty activity of this kind boosts his edit count and taking more care would slow him down and so push him down that list.  For example, notice that, for the article Reaver (Firefly) the article was prodded and then this was reverted and then the article was sent to AFD.  The editor who created the article thus got two obnoxious templates on his talk page but, with all the related activity, TPH added lots of edits to his score.  Now, what makes this busywork possible is Twinkle.  It doesn't seem that Twinkle privileges can be revoked mechanically but perhaps some restriction which would threaten TPH's score might be considered. Warden (talk) 10:37, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

I'm not going to touch the topic of an AFD ban, regardless of who imposes it, but it does seem you didn't do much WP:BEFORE making those nominations, B and D checks in particular. Can you confirm that you followed these steps, or explain why you didn't find them necessary? --BDD (talk) 16:16, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * To all the above: I haven't been in the best of moods this week, and I think I took it out on the wiki. Still, I was frustrated that I had found those articles in such poor condition — especially since sources had been brought forth in AFDs from three to five years ago but no one ever felt arsed to put the damn things in the article. It's always somebody else's problem anymore, it seems. I trust that Jclemens et al. will do the legwork this time instead of expecting it to do itself. (Furthermore, I did do a source scan but my first several hits were all tangential, insubstantial or unreliable.) Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:19, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Tell you what--I propose a compromise: I will fix BOTH articles, personally, each within one week of its respective AfD closing as keep, if you agree to a binding, 180 day AfD topic ban, starting from the day I fix the second article to a mutually agreeable neutral third party admin's satisfaction. By "binding AfD topic ban" I mean that you irrevocably consent for that 180 day period to any admin, including me or any other INVOLVED admin, blocking you for the duration of the period if at any point you make an AfD nomination that any such admin deems to be not in the best interests of the encyclopedia. We can wordsmith the terms more if you want to try something like that--will you? It'll save drama at AN, and you have nothing to fear if you behave yourself and follow BEFORE appropriately in each future nomination. Jclemens (talk) 02:07, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Clemens and BDD, I am ashamed. WP:BEFORE isn't mandatory and it never will be. Therefore, it think it wrong to complain that it's being violated as the primary reason for ending TPH's participation in AfDs. p b  p  15:07, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
 * If you are going to talk about an AFD ban, please link to past discussions about this editor, showing it is a regular problem. Isn't there a bot yet to show the large number of AFDs he has started, and how they ended?

Articles for deletion/List of building materials
TPH, your deletion nomination at the subject AfD does not appear to contain any justification for deletion as articulated in WP:DEL. Can you please articulate such a reason? Your nomination statement appears to articulate reasons not covered by that (admittedly non-exhaustive) list, and instead references issues clearly fixable by normal editing. In light of past complaints of your alleged abuse of the deletion process as an attempt to spur cleanup, including a past RfC/U on your behavior, your statement will likely be used to determine whether further sanctions should be sought for what I perceive to be your repeated abuses of the AfD process. I would encourage you to be entirely thorough in your explanation. Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 23:30, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Bubbling Column
If you're going to treat the Bubbling Under chart as a separate chart, like you did on Trace Adkins', Blake Shelton's and Kenny Chesney's discographies, how do you want to go about the fact that most singles that charted on the Hot 100 also bubbled under?

Hi! I've run across you in the past via AfDs and I could use your help sort of mediating one right now. The article being deleted is The Daisy Chain (historical novel).

Contested prod
Hi, I removed your prod tag from List of Keys of the City in the United States because I think the topic is notable enough to at least merit an AfD. Most of the recipients listed on the page are in fact notable (though I have my doubts about the cat) and I would think the sourcing could be improved since local media often report on such events. "Keys to the city" seems like a notable concept, so I think a reasonable case could be made for having a list of notable honorees. This is debatable of course, but I think a wider discussion is needed. Camerafiend (talk) 02:18, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion criterion R3 applies only to newly created page titles, it explicitly "does not apply to redirects created as a result of a move." (emphasis in original).

Cert question
Hey, I have a question I thought you might know about, do you know why the RIAA certifies some songs as soon as they hit a certain # of sales, while for others they take their time with?

Could do with some feedback
Hello I have created a new template, Template:Sierra Adventure Games which covers all adventure games by Sierra Entertainment and excludes the flight simulators, strategy games and other genres by the same company. The way I see it, Sierra is best known for its' text and click and point adventure games. This template would certainly be a lot easier to read through than the complete list. On the other hand most of the series have their own navigation box, but they are snippets compared to this larger compact navigation box. A good idea would be to place this navigation in each of the series articles plus the standalone games and leave the smaller navigation boxes in the individual game of the series articles. Also Lucasarts has its own Adventure Games template, so it might not be a bad idea to apply the same for Sierra. Tell me what you think about it, cheers.

In case you missed it at the latest pitchfork fest, my take...
Borrowing a few lines from Tijfo, because they are right on the mark: "The current batch of nominations is obviously bucking the trend, in particular because TPH entered a field he seems to have little if any expertise in. His deletion nominations were all template text saying basically that he doesn't know how to expand the articles, which comes as little surprise. Hopefully this is a learning experience that WP:IDON'TKNOWHOWTOEXPANDIT is not a good reason to nominate something for deletion, even more so when the nominator lacks expertise in the field. Let's call it a learning experience. I don't think any sanctions are necessary at this point." — Mr. Hammer: bad nominations, please don't go chasing tech stubs on DicDef grounds anymore. The nomination phrasing was also pretty, ummm, battlegroundy, so please do give that a miss, too. The Colonel does not have to list a reason for De-PRODding a piece — PROD is for completely uncontroversial deletion nominations and removal of the PROD template implies that there is controversy.

 * He does this all the time, having a long history of it, and ignores all criticism people have heaped upon him for it over the years. Its shameful.

Re: Barenaked Ladies demo tapes
You're welcome. It seems like it's not uncommon for keep/delete arguments to be based on the shape of an article at the time. To me, it keeps things easier when editors stick to demonstrating their ability to evaluate Google/GNews/GBooks/etc. by affirming something like, "I searched and there are no sources" or "I searched and here are some reliable sources." When someone on either side of the fence is shown to be incorrect, they can hopefully learn and improve from it (assuming clue). Anyway, thanks for the nice words.

Re: Bubbling Under
I'm not sure that a consensus was achieved. I was hopeful that the 1/2a/2b/3a/3b/4 poll would make it easy, but only Eric444 made a decisive pick. Here's my take on things:
 * Gongshow: Prefers the #101-125 format for the old songs; #1-25 for the new songs. Agreeable to all options (footnotes, separate columns, etc) that accomplish this goal.
 * Kww: Prefers the #1-25 format for all songs. Seemed open to the suggestion of #101-125 for the old songs if all BU peaks were to be placed in a separate column.
 * Eric444: Prefers the #101-125 format for all songs, citing Whitburn.
 * Piriczki: Prefers the #101-125 format for the old songs; #1-25 for the new songs.
 * Lil-unique1: Prefers the #1-25 format for all songs.
 * My76Strat: Prefers the #1-25 for all songs. Seemed open to using footnotes to explain the BU chart differences.
 * TenPoundHammer: You can answer this better than me of course, but if I read the thread correctly, you generally seemed (at least initially) to support Eric444's position.

I think those were all the participants to date. I left a message at Wikipedia talk:Record charts as well. Cheers,  Gongshow  Talk 23:59, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

re Wikipedia:Confirmation bias bias confirmed
I am gently aghast that you have deleted the above fine and helpful essay, especially since it was a subject of a redirect discussion back last December - where the consensus was that the redirect be kept. While this was not a deletion discussion, I would infer that the inference was that none of the correspondents considered the target page to be a deletion candidate. I indeed suggest that there was in fact a demonstrated consensus to keep the page, via the redirect discussion (and thus fail the CSD criteria) and I should be grateful if you would undelete the page, and allow me to participate in the deletion discussion.

Edit summaries
Could you be a little more accurate with your edit summaries? this edit isn't a revert, it's a redirect to eliminate a content fork. Yes, it was created as a redirect, but every edit since 2009 has been a full article (and the other title was the redirect) and characterizing it as a revert after that much time is a bit of a stretch. Further, the article title (under "Broward Mall") is the one linked on the template Broward County Malls, the one linked on the template WestfieldUnitedStates and the one linked on the template Mills corp. (I am aware of this because this is how I found the article originally.) It's nice that you are standardizing all of the Westfield properties with their new prefixes, but your edit summary was not really an accurate description of what you did.  Horologium  (talk) 20:19, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Follow-up: I get to learn how to do history merges now, since the two articles are essentially sequential edits of one another. (There was always only one article, with the other title redirected; the only difference was which title was the active one.) If you had redirected the other way around, it would have been easier, but I'll see what I can do to fix it, now that it's all buggered. I'll deal with this tomorrow, since it's way too late tonight to learn something I've never dealt with as an editor, let alone as an administrator.  Horologium  (talk) 03:17, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

According to Billboard, even though "Jesse James" is at #51 on Country Airplay this week, it's still considered to have peaked at #57 on the main Country Songs chart. For songs that debuted on Country Airplay this week, like Hunter Hayes' "Somebody's Heartbreak," should an Airplay column be added to his discography, or is Airplay only supposed to be used on song articles?

Since the "Recent Posts by Others" section which was the other part of my source doesn't move so fast as the main page, it is still fairly easy to scroll back and see this part of my source material in an exchange between Vinny and a lady named Donna Cairns.

I will try to find a more reputable source when possible, but when I had time the only source I could find got the details wrong (I follow this band's members pretty religiously on social media so have some context for recognizing possible errors) and I don't have time now to do the grunt work. I thought the end of their band's existance as we've known it was too significant to sit on but I will bow to your more experienced opinion if you disagree.

God bless and happy editing,

Better Dig Two
The November 15th BCU (http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/photos/pdf/2012/BCmw1115.pdf) has an interview with Dann Huff talking about producing the song. "Meanwhile, producer Dann Huff went to a Band Perry concert and recognized the progression the group is making as it moves toward headlining arenas. “We’ve added a few more electric guitars since our first album was released, just because live, it’s a rock’n’roll kind of show,” Neil says. “We definitely want the music on our second album to represent that. I think Dann did a great job capturing that.” They cut the instrumental tracks in less than three hours with numerous session musicians joining Reid and Neil. Handclaps intensified the demo’s rhythms, and the end result was a musical bed with some dramatic arcs between power and silence. “They really straddle that line,” Huff explains. Their concert has “the power of a rock show, but they have a real kind of stick-to-it-ness about their love for acoustic instrumentation.” The vocals were fine-tuned during several sessions in the course of a week, ending up with a product that “took the demo and just lit it on fire,” McAnally says. “What’s cool is there’s all these dynamics in the way Dann cut it. It’s way up and way down—it’s like a rollercoaster.”"

Removal of paragraph in Marvin (comic strip)
In the future please do not indiscriminately remove paragraphs from a Wikipedia article. I was going through the edits of Marvin (comic strip) and your removal of the paragraph where creator Tom Armstrong discusses his changing the comic strip's characters design because it was not well sourced is not a good reason to remove something, you should discuss it on the article's talkpage first.

Template:Allele
Hi TPH, I hope you don't mind some friendly advice here. You and I have clashed before about your past reinstating of declined speedy deletion templates, and it just isn't acceptable - if anyone other than the creator of the page disagrees (and it isn't just an admin thing), they can remove it and that's that, even if you are completely convinced you are right. You must then not reinstate it, but should take to PROD or AfD. Edit-warring about it seems especially pointless in this case - it's a harmless template, and it really doesn't matter if it hangs around for another week while it's discussed. So come on, why not stick to what you're good at (and you are very good at what you do) and don't get yourself into any trouble by fighting over this? Don't stir it up at ANI, just move on. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:10, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
 * TPH, I have defended you in the past, but if you continue editing in this manner (incorrect CDS tags, restoring them, POINTy tags) then we might have to escalate this and consider a topic ban. GiantSnowman 17:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

For instance, Talk:Deafness/Archive 1 and Talk:Deafness/Archive 2 were in the wrong place before I got to them.

Deleting a sandbox page
You have organised the deletion of a page from my sandbox earlier this year. I fully admit that I should have cleaned it up myself, since it had been used long ago for development of a page that is now up and running, and apologize for that. However, you were wrong in declaring me "retired" with no input for 3 years, my last contribution dating from August 25th 2011.

An awkward question about your edit in WP:FFD
Hello, TenPoundHammer

I had a question, which is rather awkward, but I hope I am not bothering you. What is this edit actually doing?

If you are confused about what I am asking, here is an explanation: If someone showed me this edit without telling me you did it and asked what I thought, I'd say it seemed like vandalism or trolling: A user deleted a discussion and told its nominator to relist it because no one cares. But your name on top changes everything. You don't vandalize, therefore this edit is not vandalism. So, my question is: What is it?

Merry Christmas

Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 12:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi. You need to see TPH's very next edit - he wasn't telling the nominator to relist it, he was relisting it himself. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:13, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Userspace to mainspace redirects are OK
Continued from Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Tony Fox/Sandbox2...

Yes, we happily redirect from userspace to mainspace. It happens by default every time a user moves their draft into mainspace, the recommended method for creating new pages. If you don't like making these redirects, a soft redirect could be used. What we don't do is redirect from mainspace to userspace, on the rationale that readers shouldn't unexpectedly find themselves out of mainspace. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:27, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

DYK Nomination
Hello!

It's the most recent article I created called, Jan Howard Sings Evil on Your Mind, by Jan Howard. I've never been up for something like this and I don't know if I'm overreacting, but I don't recall many country articles being nominated before, so I find it rather exciting! I just wanted to let you know that something positive has come from one of the country music articles on Wikipedia.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Meetinthemiddle.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Meetinthemiddle.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Proposed deletion of Agenda: Grinding America Down
Before you consider putting this article up for deletion, I would like to explain the problems that have plagued this article.

Please look through the talk page for the article and the edit history. Pull up some of the early versions of the article. I have twice proposed limiting the editing of this article to registered users with a solid editing history. Persons have edited outside of user accounts on a number of occasions. No one has considered my proposals. This is an article that attracts persons with strong and sometimes misguided opinions. They think the article should be a propaganda piece, rather than an article written with an attempt to be objective. I have had my original material almost completely deleted at this point. If you look thru the history of this article and still think it should be considered for deletion, so be it. But, first, please examine this article's history. Thank you.

Power center (retail) / Retail park
Hi there,

I notice that you redirected the Retail park article to Power center (retail). While this may have been the correct decision (as both are similar concepts under different names) I'm surprised that you appeared simply to discard the existing Retail park article content in favour of a redirect. While there would undoubtedly have been some overlap, the two were not exact duplicates and (IMHO) could have been merged. Ubcule (talk) 20:25, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

(Incidentally, I am not convinced that CBM did take it seriously, because if so then it's hard to tell why he/she create-protected the page. I think he/she knew damned well it was a joke, and took the joke one step further by deleting and salting.) JamesBWatson (talk) 19:34, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Toxic ravine reply
How can there be sources like internet URL when the internet wasn't created when the game was released? It's a small game like Swords of Chaos, not many people played it like Legend of the Red Dragon so nobody really talked about it in newspapers or magazines. Actually, I bet you can find references for those games in computer magazines back in the day, but those are long gone...

From the link you gave me WP:GNG : "if appropriate sources cannot be found after a good-faith search for them, consider merging the article's verifiable content into a broader article providing context." I did as many search as I could, just can't really find anything else to add. So we should merge both games into broader article? What article? Isn't there another solution to keep the article? You do realize that a lot of articles on wikipedia are just like those games, I understand wikipedia's policy on it, however if we keep deleting articles, it won't become the entire human knowledge encyclopedia it's supposed to be.

Whitburn books
Chartbot is throwing up its hands on one big set of links, those like
 * http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/specials/hot100/charts/top100-titles-00.shtml
 * http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/specials/hot100/charts/top100-titles-90.shtml

 * http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/specials/hot100/charts/top100-titles-40.shtml

From context, it looks like Billboard used to have pages that listed the top 100 songs for each decade. Has Whitburn got lists like this in any of his books? If you could provide me with some citations from the Whitburn books that would act as sources for these, it would be easy for me to make Chartbot do the work of correcting the citations.

Wanna help with an article?
I came across this guy (Dejan Stojanović) while looking at stuff up for PROD. The article has been around since 2010, but I'm seeing a definite lack of RS that I can verify on this article. You willing to help out and wade through this article to see if he's actually notable or not? Even if he is eventually found to be notable, the article has some issues with puffery and tone. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   07:28, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually... it looks like the person making the articles is a SPA that only creates articles based around this guy. I'm not going to say that it is the author himself, but it's somewhat fishy that a listing on Amazon directly quotes Wikipedia, which in turn directs to that Amazon entry. Basically put, I'm wondering if this isn't a case of self-promotion that has flown under the radar for a few years, so I'm basically here to ask you to do what you do best.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Tsquarealbum.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Tsquarealbum.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Blanking of trivia sections
I've noticed that you tend to remove "popular culture" and "trivia" sections, like that on One, Two, Buckle My Shoe. It's commendable that you care about cleaning up those, but your approach is problematic; by simply removing the whole section you're throwing away a lot of babies with the bathwater, content that should be retained either in the article or at other related topics. Proper cleanup of such sections is not easy - WP:TRIVIA explains that most content should be sourced and relocated, not deleted (only speculative or factually incorrect entries should be removed - except at WP:BLPs; there, it's OK to remove everything unsourced). I know that's a lot of work - if you're not willing to do it, the very least you must do is placing a link at the talk page to your edit removing the section, so that a different editor in the future may find it and properly fix the content (this is all explained in WP:PRESERVE, which is a Wikipedia policy).

"Popular culture" sections in particular are a valuable resource, one of the strengths of Wikipedia with respect to other encyclopedias. Our distributed approach make it easy to surface many examples of cultural references that would be impossible to compile by a centralized team. Although the format in which those are usually first written tends to be poorly presented, they work as a kickstart for someone to later make an encyclopedia section out of those examples. You're preventing that to happen when you remove the whole section without a trace, to be lost in the article's history.

American board games, 1843–1935
I'd like to understand if I'm missing something. I couldn't find any consensus on a merge, your edit sum said "done" and you removed the merge proposal template. The content wasn't merged, you made a REDIRECT from the article to article Board game. What am I missing, could you explain your action and edit sum and justification please so that I can understand. Thank you. Ihardlythinkso (talk) 21:16, 13 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Your reply (copied from my Talk): "My bad. I forgot to paste the content in. I've redone the merge, and actually put the content from the "American board games" article into Board game now."


 * Two Qs: 1) The image from the merged article was not carried forward. Why not? 2) I still don't see a merge consensus in that discussion. Just a merge proposal and a short discussion. No consensus. How do you justify coming in and doing the merge in light of that? Ihardlythinkso (talk) 21:34, 13 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Your reply (copied from my Talk): "It's called being WP:BOLD. If there's no discussion either way, then either just do the merge, or just leave it a separate article. I think it should be merged, but it's clear that no one wants to discuss it either way. Why do you think it should not be merged?"


 * I don't get you. You say "no one wants to discuss it either way", but there was a short discussion on the Talk. And any fair reading of the short discussion by a CRAT would result in "No consensus for merge" or even "Keep as separate articles", since the participant advocating to keep separate, offered several arguments for his position, wheras the editor advocating merge, had only a single argument, and failed to follow up and contend with the reasons given for keeping separate.


 * I asked you why the photo image was not also merged. No answer from you. Please answer.


 * I haven't evaluated what my opinion would be about merging, but I see no reason to disagree with the participant who advocated reasons to keep separate. You say you "think it should be merged", but instead of adding your thought and advocacy on the tail of the short discussion at the Talk, you did a REDIRECT without informing anyone or discussing, then when I reverted you and asked what justification you have to merge, you reverted me and went ahead with the merge again. I think this is much too forceful, and I don't see you as a collaborator, just as a "clobberer". I will be reverting your merge for the reasons given here. Please start collaborating and communicating in future. You did the same thing at ICCF U.S.A.. (A REDIRECT which essentially destroyed the article content, which I reverted saying it was no way to delete an article and if you wanted to do that you should open an AfD, and on the AfD you opened you subsequently wrote that your REDIRECT was reverted without reason, which was false. You circumvented process in order to remove content then, and you've circumvented process now.) Ihardlythinkso (talk) 22:34, 13 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Perhaps I agree with the merge, I'm not sure. (Another way to go is to merge as you have done, then fork later, if other similar articles are created.) But I don't like the way you went about it, forcing me to restore the article at ICCF U.S.A. as well as the article today. Please don't destroy articles using REDIRECT.

College Park Mall (Saskatoon)
You left a note on my talk page regarding the deletion of the wikipedia page --> College Park Mall (Saskatoon) which I see has been deleted. The reason that page was created was in response to a discussion to start some shopping mall pages. The comment about no sources is true, there are not too very many sources about shopping malls unless there is a news item about it for some reason or t'other, but for the most part there are just shopping advertisements which don't help, so I don't know if shopping malls will make it big on wikipedia. No biggie about the deletion, I think the discussion has tapered off as well to create those types of pages. Have a great day. SriMesh | talk  21:17, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Same name and in the relatively same business, yes, but two different people nonetheless. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.15.166.249 (talk) 05:06, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Your edit at Del McCoury Band
Hi there. I was asked to look at your change to the article in question. Using provocative language such as LIES even in an edit summary is not a good way to build a collegial environment. Also, while there was a single reference, might it have been better to replace the unreferenced template with ref-improve (which is what I have done).

Tim McGraw
I have nothing against listing Curb Records first. I just think that Taylor Swift and Keith Urban should stay because their single "Highway Don't Care" has already been listed as a #1 duet, song, video, and country music event on certain charts.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Livealittlekenny.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Livealittlekenny.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Ronan (song)
I also could not find any reference to the producer of the song either and don't have an answer. What is clear though is that it was produced for Taylor Swift's Red album. Although not included in the album later on, probably producers of the other songs in the album produced this one as well. But your question was a great opportunity to visit this beautiful song again and I added a new info about the title of the grieving mother's blog.

Not all list sections are trivia sections. Lists are sometimes the best way to organize things, and most of the items on that last are clearly significant (eg, being a league MVP). Much of that content is probably available in the article body already, but it's nice to have it in a compact form.

Andrew Gold Edit
The Family Feud item had a bad citation. If you can find a reliable and Wiki-approved citation that confirms his appearance, its date, etc., please feel free to restore the tidbit. - Movieola

Please check the citation again. Thanks! - Movieola

I saw nothing on Google News when running that search, except for a YouTube comment - and YouTube is not on Wikipedia's approved citation list. And just for the record, what, specifically, does it say behind a pay-wall at the Denver Post that makes this such a significant addition to the Gold Wiki page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Movieola (talk • contribs) 02:31, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

To reiterate, I did a search on Google NEWS, and only saw the YouTube comment. The Google News link you provided did show someone's Denver Post comment in passing about seeing the show on television. While I don't think that's particularly authoritative, this is a rather minor issue, so if you are determined to include it and believe it important enough to include and believe that the citation is valid, I've got nothing more to say on the subject.

Unnice dirty laundry crusade
Hi TPH,

Sorry if my comments tend offensive. I do not have a crusade against you. I suggest you review my comments in the RFC/U. Sometimes, your overly short nominations annoy. Often, something is definitely wrong with the page, but you provide so little reliable detail in the nomination that it is of no help in the review. If we were working side by side in real life, I would probably have poked you in the ribs. Communicating with you is awkward, because you are so rarely responsive. However, I don't want to complain, because I can see you are at working doing more important things, improving mainspace.

My wish for you is that you would try to stop relying on the word "stale", and instead say why something is stale, and consider that a fully marked up mainspace-worthy looking page is probably not what others consider "stale". If you don't like my poking, I will modify. My impression is that you don't even notice. Your usename, combined with cute otters that are nimble unlike a hammer, but scare me with their likelihood to bite, confuses me as to how best talk to you. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:36, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Secretary of Consumer Affairs of Puerto Rico
Hi,

It seems that you are confusing Secretary of Consumer Affairs of Puerto Rico with List of Secretaries of Consumer Affairs of Puerto Rico. The Secretary of Consumer Affairs of Puerto Rico is a post, similar to the Ministry of Consumer Affairs of other nations, and is a Cabinet-level officer of the Cabinet of Puerto Rico as well as being a member of the Council of Secretaries of Puerto Rico as established by the Constitution of Puerto Rico.

If you are interested in expanding the article you can either do a search in Google for 'Secretario de Asuntos del Consumidor' or extract information from the law that created such post.

Hope this clears things up.

You might want to redact your deletion nomination statement. I most certainly did leave an edit summary explaining why I deprodded the article. Furthermore, since I added several news sources (not all of them freely available online), your statement about what kind of sources were added is also false.

Seeking a One-Time Exemption From TenPoundHammer's Law
Hi TenPoundHammer,

I have been working on a draft for an article for the next Slayer album for about the last 15 months or so. I would like to say that I have read your policy, and do generally agree with it. However, you make note that exceptions do exist, and I believe my draft is such a case. As of now, it has 22 citations, and a large body of text. I personally feel that the draft, as it currently sits, would make a worthwhile addition to Wikipedia, even in the state that it currently is. I have thought about just taking it live, but I'd really like to get your blessing for an exemption before I do, lest the page be nominated for speedy deletion.

Additionally, you mention Radiohead's In Rainbows as having been a valid exception. I believe that a comparison of content in my draft with this revision] of In Rainbows (the fifth revision from the day the article was started) supports the validity of my request.

Thank you for your help,--L1A1 FAL (talk) 20:02, 13 October 2013 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't write "TBA is..." unless the album is actually called TBA. Instead write "Slayer's eleventh studio album..." Gendralman (talk) 04:41, 14 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Addressed the above. I had been thinking that I should probably rewrite that anyway though. With that said, does my draft seem notable enough at this point in time to be moved to article space though? Thanks.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 19:47, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

the title of this page Atlanta Institute Of Music isn't correct. the "o" on "of" should be not capitalized, is there a way to maybe change the name so the "of" can be lowercased?

RE: 'Wheel of Fortune' edit I made..
Hello, and thank you very much for your warm welcome, that was quite kind. I also appreciate you not flaming me! lol.

However I just want to raise one point: The edit I made to the Wheel of Fortune page was purely translation. I found the wording of the article to be lacking in the area that I edited. What I did was re-word what was already written (yes i did elaborate though) That is why I didn't cite anything when I made the changes. I thought my final product was much easier to understand, the only reason I even went to make the edit was because last night I visited my folks and we watched Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune because it's a bit of a tradition with us lol. Anyway toward the end of the episode, we all got into a debate concerning one of the rules of the show. My dad said one thing, My mother and I said another (ma and I were right, it was very obviously what we had said it was) My father is a person who can NOT stand being wrong.. ever. So we were forced to get the laptop and look up the answer. When I came to the Wiki article in question I exclaimed "A-HA! Prepare to eat your words Pops!" and I proceeded to read an excerpt which vindicated mom and myself.

Unfortunately my father countered with a long-winded attack on the articles wording and said because of the wording that we were wrong, which is not specific enough to be anything but subjective and therefore did not count, and he wins.

So I made that edit! lol!

Anyway, thank you again for the warm welcome, and I apologize for neglecting the S.O.P for Wikipedia. I just wanted to tell you my story while I was at it.

The babysitters
You have no proof that the film summary was copied from anywhere. At best you can argue it's an original work, except it isn't, since it's detailing events in a published movie. Hundreds of articles on movies have summaries, some more detailed than others. Arguing that it's a copyright violation to write a summary of what happened in a movie is basically saying writing a detailed book report is a copyright violation. They both provide information on the content of the movie/book. The articles on the Bourne movies all have detailed summaries, A Beautiful Mind, Gladiator, Blood Diamond, etc. If you can prove it was copied from somewhere, great, but if that's the case, then provide a source. In any event, summaries are accepted parts of movie articles, apparently on the premise that a summary is not a copyright violation, but an account of the contents of the movie because it's the topic of the article.

"Author requests deletion" CSDs
Hi TPH, this is a bit bureaucratic, I admit, but I think Whpq was right in reverting your adding of a U1 tag to the now deleted page User:DummyAccountPAB. The way the wording is now, U1 requires the user request deletion of the page, which he or she did not do. G7, however, despite being called "Author requests deletion," explicitly allows blanking to be taken as a deletion request. A moot point in this case, since the page ended up deleted anyway, but I think you could expedite these processes in the future by using the right CSD. Again, this is fairly bureaucratic, but I think it's legitimate to interpret CSD language strictly (there's a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Archive 50 that shed some light on the subtle distinction between U1 and G7). --BDD (talk) 17:51, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The reason I removed the speedy tag was that the author explicitly did not request deletion. Per Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:DummyAccountPAB, the author stated "Please blank the page but do not delete it." which is the opposite of asking that the page be deleted.  I'll also point out that under the G7 criteria is states " If the sole author blanks a page other than a userspace page or category page, this can be taken as a deletion request.", so even without the request in the MFD discussion, user page is not qualified under G7 as it is currently worded. -- Whpq (talk) 19:46, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure, good point. The author did do the opposite of requesting deletion. I hadn't noticed that G7 exempts user pages from blanking, though. That seems counterproductive. --BDD (talk) 19:55, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I suspect that the exemption for user space pages is due to the nature of those pages, especially subpages. They are often drafts with blanking made to clear stuff and then other stuff placed in the draft.  Blanking such pages isn't sufficient evidence of a desire for deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 20:11, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

I noticed you moved the Northwest Plaza article to a new name. Is there any reason you didn't create a new page for the redevelopment instead of moving the page?

Hi TenPoundHammer, yes I reverted your removal of my father in the Teatro Puerto Rico article. Let me explain myself. My father is no hoax, as Damiens, who has had an issue with me claims. I am not sure, but I believe that you or someone else emailed me under the name of Roberto Blondet, claiming to admire my work and asking questions about my father's article and that if the theater. It is difficult to find these old 1950s sources, but I do have the clippings from some old Hispanic papers and photos (A little yellowish) in my possession. If you are interested and if you have a fax number I can fax them to you or mail you copies and you can see for yourself that my dad was the real deal. Maybe you can give me a idea has how to use them as a source.Tony the Marine (talk) 22:47, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
 * That's the thing. I didn't write the article and as a personal policy I do not interfere with the articles written by others nor do I regularly check up on them since I do not include them in my "watchlist". I agree with you on that source, where did the creator of the article get that from? The situation is that I have the newspaper clippings, but my father did not bother to include where they came from, I also the front pages of "Ecos de Broadway" from 1953 and 1954, plus photos of my father on stage with the mike. Besides, if I cite them, my friend Damians will right out and cite "COI". Look, if someone wants to put the article for AfD, well what ever, but not as a "hoax" just because there is a lack of cyber evidence. Tony the Marine (talk) 03:05, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Regarding this edit, do you have the rest of the citation information? I pride myself on keeping citations on the Michigan highway articles complete. At a minimum, page numbers, publication location and publisher are needed. If there is an ISBN or OCLC number for the book, that would be great too.

I hope that doesn't sound too picky, but I'm nearing the end of over 6 years' work on this collection of articles, and my goal is to get featured and good topics put together on the various parts of the State Trunkline Highway System. That means polishing articles, and keep them polished to a basic level of consistency regarding date formatting, capitalization, etc.  Imzadi 1979  →   21:38, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

Issue with insertion
In this edit, you inserted new information into the middle of a paragraph. There are three issues with that:
 * 1) That entire paragraph before the change was cited to the map footnotes at the end of the paragraph. After the change, it appears that only the second half is still cited to those maps while the first half is cited to the source you inserted.
 * 2) *In the future, if you make such an insertion, you should copy the citations to the end of the sentence before your addition so that they stay cited to their source.
 * 3) That was historical detail added to a section that isn't about the history.
 * 4) *That insertion should have been made to the appropriate spot in the road article's history section.
 * 5) There are much better sources for that information, like The Grand Rapids Press. Little alarms go off in my head when a website talks about a construction project in Jenson and Grandville, Michigan, yet uses "Minneapolis, MI" as the location under the headline. Just because it's near the top of the Google results doesn't make it a suitable source, especially for a Featured Article.

Also, but when you add a footnote to an article, check to see how that article is formatting dates. It's a bit annoying, but easily fixable, to switch "17 September 2014" to "September 17, 2014" so that the footnote matches the style used by the rest of the article. It's a minor detail, perhaps, but such things are scrutinized when these articles go through FAC.  Imzadi 1979  →   16:07, 17 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Also, can you watch for issues related to what I corrected in this edit? You left out the fact that it was a press release, you didn't include the author/contact, you left out the date it was released, and you misattributed it to being in a published work entitled Michigan Department of Transportation instead of being published by the Michigan Department of Transportation. Also, the date formatting thing popped up again: the MOS does say that for article subjects with a clear connection to the United States, except the military, we are supposed to use "Month DD, YYYY" formatting.  Imzadi 1979  →   16:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Uh yeah, don't edit tired, apparently. Didn't know that press releases have to be explicitly noted. Also, reftools uses DDMMYYYY by default and I don't know how to change it. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:32, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * You may have to manually edit the dates to put them in the proper style. Formatting citations is one of those things that requires a bit of human supervision, especially when using automated scripts or tools. You need to use a modicum of thought to process the information about the source into an effective, and consistent, citation for use in an article. Microsoft Word purports to format bibliographies in APA, MLA or Chicago formatting for use in research papers, but I've found that its automated tools only get you about 75% of the way to a properly formatted list of references. The same goes for a lot of automated tools for Wikipedia.  Imzadi 1979  →   20:08, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Sturgill Simpson - infobox deletion
Hi there, just curious as to the reasoning behind deleting the notable_instruments information, as it seems to be part of the standard infobox for musicians... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_musical_artist -- I think Sturgill's prowess on the guitar justifies this callout. If you want that sourced I can do that.

On the same page the infobox for artists includes current_members also as a standard infobox. And Sturgill has a band under his name.....

I am following up on this because the explanation you gave did not make sense to me given how this infobox template is shown as a default -- and how I have seen it deployed on many band pages.

I also think having the information in the infobox is a nice way to cleanly present the information.

Johnny Prill
A while ago you started an afd for Johnny Prill. In your nomination you stated "(a two-sentence review on his single, a couple brief blurbs in the Detroit Free Press — "Disc of the week" is definitely trivial)." Can I ask you to clarify if you remember well enough? Did you read multiple pieces from Detroit Free Press. Did they go beyond one or two sentences? Would you call the depth of coverage?

About your (non)participation in the January 2012 SOPA vote
Hi TenPoundHammer. I am Piotr Konieczny (User:Piotrus), you may know me as an active content creator (see my userpage), but I am also a professional researcher of Wikipedia. Recently I published a paper (downloadable here) on reasons editors participated in Wikipedia's biggest vote to date (January 2012 WP:SOPA). I am now developing a supplementary paper, which analyzes why many editors did not take part in that vote. Which is where you come in :) You are a highly active Wikipedian (58th to be exact!), and you were active back during the January 2012 discussion/voting for the SOPA, yet you did not chose to participate in said vote. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me why was that so? For your convenience, I prepared a short survey at meta, which should not take more than a minute of your time. I would dearly appreciate you taking this minute; not only as a Wikipedia researcher but as a fellow content creator and concerned member of the community (I believe your answers may help us eventually improve our policies and thus, the project's governance). PS. If you chose to reply here (on your userpage), please WP:ECHO me. Thank you! --<sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 23:14, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Citation formatting
Re: this edit, can you please, please remember to use the same date formatting as the rest of an article when inserting citations? Can you also try to remember the difference between a published work, which includes things like the names of websites, newspapers, journals, books, or magazines. MDOT is not a work; rather it is the name of a government agency that in that case published a press release, making it a publisher. If you are using some sort of script to create that edit, I'll remind you that you're still responsible for any edits you save to any article, and you could immediately re-edit the article to better comply with the date formatting and citation styling if that script doesn't allow you to customize what you're saving. Leaving it to others when you "otter know better" is very aggravating.  Imzadi 1979  →   23:38, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Whoa, I forgot about that dating thing. I also forgot that cite press release is a thing. Some of the nuances of citation escape me since I've never had to deal with the finer details before. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 00:01, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
 * It's exceedingly frustrating though to have created high-quality and consistently formatted articles, taking them high up the assessment scale, only to have people mess things up. Yes, I-94's article isn't that high up the scale at the moment, but every one of these additions adds up to make the last bit of work I need to get around to finishing that much harder.
 * In short: if an article uses one style of date formats, then anything you add to that article should comport to that format, even if it's a crappy start-class article.  Imzadi 1979  →   00:05, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

List of best-selling girl groups
Hi TenPoundHammer – yes, I know, your heart probably sank when you saw the title of this post, it's a nightmare you've spent the last three years trying to forget. I noticed that you AfD'd this article back in 2012 and I read through that discussion – I entirely agree with the arguments you and Status put forward back then, and I don't think the article is in any better shape now. I've discussed my two major areas of concern on the talk page: specifically, that the overall list of best-selling girl groups worldwide is missing some fairly obvious omissions, simply because we can't source figures for them; that there is no point trying to have separate tables for physical and digital sales in this day and age; and that the list of best-selling singles in the US is fundamentally flawed as it only consists of singles by the Spice Girls and million-sellers from 2005 onwards. GabeMc's argument that it could be improved by using the RIAA Gold & Platinum database is no good as it won't include any certifications from before 2005, so you have to look elsewhere for sources: I stated mine in the talk page discussion, but I can't guarantee I haven't missed any.

I suspect if it goes to AfD again, it will come up against exactly the same counter-arguments – the best compromise suggestion I can come up with for the US singles section is to simply list the singles that have been certified platinum or double platinum using the RIAA database and the BHSA book, without trying to rank them. Although frankly, I agree that this whole article is next to useless. I'm also having to contend with a few Fifth Harmony obsessives who insist that "Worth It" has sold 2 million in the US, without providing any evidence (the cited article next to the song's entry clearly states 1.2 million, backed up by the fact it's only been certified single platinum by the RIAA). Any comments, suggestions, observations, or do I simply throw my hands up in the air at the whole thing? Thanks for your time. Richard3120 (talk) 16:21, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

List of County-Designated Highways in Michigan
I overhauled List of County-Designated Highways in Michigan so that it uses a single table per the formatting from WP:USRD/STDS/L. In the process, I removed some entries from the page because they've never appeared on the official state maps. I went through all of the maps from 1970 through 2015 to make sure that I got all of the years figured out appropriately. As I noted on the list's talk page though, 6 numbers never appeared on the official state maps, and I think you had been the one who added 4 of those. I have plans at some point to look at some old Alger County plat atlases at the research library in the Marquette Regional History Center, so I may be able to restore H-09 and H-60 to the table.

If you know of a set of old maps that show them, we can add rows in the table for those other designates and create the missing redirects for them. However, it appears you added them based on a single map. It would be nice if we had a range of years to establish an approximate time frame for when they appeared and when they disappeared. Given the history of these designations, even Bessert's site is quite lacking in information about each designation. If you have enough old maps to allow us to pinpoint the first and last years for F-07, F-09, F-17 and F-24, and if you could get me copies so I could trace their routes on MDOT"s PRFA site to compute their lengths, that would be great.  Imzadi 1979  →   01:24, 18 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I assume you're talking about all the routes in Ogemaw County such as F-7, F-12, F-22, etc., most of which were never on the MDOT maps? Most of those came from a 1978 road map that I don't know the current location of, but they're all still marked on Google Maps (albeit minus the "F"s). I went down F-22 (Rose City Road) earlier this year, and do know that at least it is still signed in the field. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:42, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, but are there any other maps to flesh out the range of years? At least with the official maps, we have access to a full set from 1970 through 2015 and can note when the various designations appeared and disappeared. Unfortunately, we can't rely personal observations, so we need maps showing these.  Imzadi 1979  →   01:53, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately I don't have any other Ogemaw County maps from the appropriate era on hand, nor can I find the 1978 map I used as a source in 2009. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:54, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I found something that's a start. [This] is a scan from the "Michigan County Atlas" by Universal Map, which uses a map from their 1988 map "Northern Highlands". This verifies all of the mysterious "F" routes in Ogemaw county, although there seem to be two different number systems going on.

essay
TPH, why do you want to delete your extremely helpful essay "Wikipedia:Alternatives to the "Expand" template:" ? I'm holding off a bit on doing the deletion. DGG ( talk ) 03:13, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:EngFram/sandbox
Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:EngFram/sandbox. Why? From WP:MFD, "Note that we do not delete user subpages merely to "clean up" userspace. Please only nominate pages that are problematic under our guidelines." Even if the page was for some obscure reason "problematic", you could have simply blanked it instead. Starting an MfD discussion for such pages is a total waste of time and effort. It's not as if I had hundreds of subpages with that username, or if anything polemic or copy-violating was buried there. Perhaps only start deletion discussions for pages that really need to be deleted... Fram (talk) 11:45, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry, are you (and by extension in this case) completely incompetent or what? I come here to ask about an MfD you did, and your response is to tag the corresponding user sandbox talk page with speedy G2, even though Criteria for speedy deletion clearly states "This criterion does not apply to pages in the user namespace". The full contents of the page were "Test talk", so nothing remotely harmful or problematic there. Restore both pages (sandbox and talk page) at once and stay away from useless deletions in the future. There is more than enough that needs to be done on WIkipedia (both the encyclopedia and the backoffice) that you don't need to waste time on useless and policy-ignoring deletions which are of benefit to absoluetly no one and nothing. Fram (talk) 06:28, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Fram, I hope you're doing well. Enjoyed your Signpost op-ed.
 * Anyway, it's not very nice to insinuate that I'm incompetent as an admin for deleting a page whose sole edit is "test talk" after the main page was deleted per discussion. Whatever, though. Good to see you back. Keegan (talk) 07:01, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * G2 does not apply to pages in user space, so no matter what happened to the main page (which I tried to discuss with TPH above, with the only response being the deletion of the talk page), it should not have been speedy deleted, but instead TPH should have been given the info that he should not use speedy deletion criteria incorrectly. If you had done that, you would have probably noticed the above post by me and seen what caused this unusual action by TPH. Getting pages deleted with clearly incorrect rationales only to rile up another editor is very bad manners, and that you inadvertently helped him doing this is not so good. But yeah, yours is a mistake, and I shouldn't have treated it the same way, his action is rather hard to defend though. Anyway, can you please restore both pages? Or do I have to open a DRV for something as stupid as this? Fram (talk) 07:14, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * If you're back active and this is breaking your workflow, I can undelete User:EngFram/sandbox without DRV. I don't see why the need to undelete a talk page, but why not as well. Could you just please be a little less gruff about things that at least I'm pinged in in the future, not that we run across each other so much :) We're to be colleagues, after all. Work for you? Keegan (talk) 07:19, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * You're right, I was (am) pissed off about TPH's actions, but shouldn't have lumped you in with them for making a minor mistake. The undeletion of the two pages is more out of principle: don't mess with user pages (subpages, talk pages...) unless they are harmful in some way; deletion is a last resort. If the sandbox was in some way a problem, blanking it would have solved that just as well. And TenPoundHammer, if you are asked about why you did some action, don't make it worse by not replying (leaving a template that treats me as a newbie is not replying) but by taking further incorrect action instead. It doesn't reflect well on you. Fram (talk) 07:26, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I've restored User:EngFram/sandbox but not the talk page because that's just as silly as deleting it. Let's let bygones be bygones with TPH and move on. Keegan (talk) 07:29, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Note that "not editing for a few months" should never be a reason to delete a sandbox in the first place, but it's a bit too late for that now. Fram (talk) 08:50, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

While all constructive 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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. <sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 07:07, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

US 33 Ohio
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give User:TenPoundHammer/sandbox  a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into U.S. Route 33 in Ohio. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you).

 * Sorry about the template, but the attribution part of it is serious business. As you recall, I helped finish the junction list and by cutting and pasting, you've wiped out my contributions.   I could claim a copyvio and have the article deleted, but I generally follow WP:DBAD.  In the future, tag the redirect with a WP:CSD and move the page when the admin deletes the redirect. –Fredddie™ 01:01, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Walden Galleria L&T.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:Walden Galleria L&T.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 14:12, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

If I-275 is on your to do list, you might want to get any tweaking done sooner rather than later. That article is at FAC now. After it's done, I do plan to take I-94 there as well. After those, I-675 is another consideration for FAC. (If you look on the list of articles at Book talk:Michigan State Trunkline Highway System, it's bookended by FAs, and I'd need a third Interstate FA this year to bump Featured topics/Interstate Highways in Michigan from a GT to a FT.)

Chris Janson Edits
Hello! We represent Chris Janson at his record label and are trying to provide the most up-to-date information. Per the artist's request, it's imperative that his full-length album release on Warner Music Nashville is mentioned in the his summary before his previous EP releases and songs written for other artists. Please refrain from removing that information. We appreciate your attention to detail and enthusiasm for Chris and his music, but let's be sure it's prioritized by featuring the most important and recent information. He's no longer with Bigger Picture or Columbia. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.119.229.162 (talk) 17:07, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Deletion pending for File:Walden Galleria L&#38;T.JPG
Hello, TenPoundHammer. Some time ago, a file you uploaded &mdash; File:Walden Galleria L& &mdash; was tagged with OTRS pending, indicating that you (or perhaps the copyright holder if you did not create this image) submitted a statement of permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. Though there is often a backlog processing messages received at this address, we should have received your message by now.


 * If you have not submitted (or forwarded) a statement of permission, please send it immediately to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.


 * If you have already sent this message, it is possible that there was a problem receiving it. Please re-send it to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.

If we don't hear from you within one week, the file will be deleted. If we can help you, please feel free to ask at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 14:37, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

M-99
Can you do a favor since you have access to the sources, and I don't? If it's possible to create clippings of those articles and then use those links in the citations, that would be awesome. Otherwise, can you answer who announced the plans? It would really be better to flip that first sentence ("Plans were first announced in 1970 to expand M-99 within the Lansing city limits.") from passive to active voice, like "<The Michigan Department of State Highways> first announced in 1970 that it has plans to expand M-99 within the Lansing city limits." Or did the city announce that? Otherwise, no complaints on your addition; that's the sort of thing we need more of: updates to highways sourced to actual newspapers.

Diamond Rio Edits
Okay, so it looks like we might both be off a bit on the timing of the band's founding. In this interview http://www.cmt.com/news/1531903/20-questions-with-diamond-rio/ Marty recognizes that he and Brian were not in the band when it was founded, but that Jimmy and Dan were. At the time the Grizzlies and the TMB were founded, there wasn't a Jimmy or a Dan in the lineup. So, maybe we can put the actual founding of "Diamond Rio" at the time Jimmy and Dan started playing together. Which, of course, would be later than the 1982 date that the page shows.

Portal:Curreweqds
I don't think this was an appropriate use of rollback. To quote "Use of standard rollback for any other purposes – such as reverting good-faith changes which you happen to disagree with – is likely to be considered misuse of the tool." An admin declined your speedy request with a reasonable edit summary: there is an MFD already open. The information seemed well formed, it could be moved to another appropriate location. That is what the MFD is for, let it run its course and comment at the MFD. Woody (talk) 19:17, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * There isn't any such rule, but that is not the reason why it was declined twice by different admins. The reasoning on the talk page is sound. It doesn't look like a test page to me. It is a well formed table. The content may be useful elsewhere. I take it that you don't disagree the rollback was inappropriate? Woody (talk) 19:43, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Template G2's
I've denied your G2 on Template:TH featured host, since it doesn't look like a test page (and it was created by someone working for WMF, apparently). But thank you for all the other articles-as-templates you've been cleaning up! I assume you're working off an orphaned templates report, there are probably countless more used only on a user sandbox, as that seems to be a fairly common thing now. What do you think is causing people to create these? I suspect something to do with VisualEditor and users attempting to play with the sandbox heading...though I haven't actually used VE to make constructive edits, so I have no idea how easy/hard it is to end up working in the Template namespace. – Train2104 (t • c) 01:07, 9 June 2017 (UTC) &#8203; ▲ SomeHuman 2017-06-10 13:10-13:19 (UTC)
 * That was not the only one. See on my talk page. That sub template made a lot of sense until an (as I around those years had come to recognize) extreme pro German (language) / anti Dutch (language) editor made it an orphan. I'm pretty sure this disguised obliteration of a proper source had never been spotted by his main adversary. Only the latter, though usually logically and factually correct (or at least well aware of reasonable controversies) but less diplomatically capable and thus always stubbornly alone WP-'disrupting', was finally banned later on... For WP's sake, it might be best to integrate the old version and thus the footnote (or the proper source that the latter contained) into the present main template (which was renamed [incorrectly], thus having made the never renamed footnote an orphan of slightly harder to detect origin). But I expect either 'Dutch' or 'Flemish' related articles on WP never to be both adequate and stable enough to bother. Anyway, any 10 year old template could not possibly be a good candidate for speedy deletion. Nothing might suddenly justify the rush!

The template is transcluded through 11 pages (all players of this very same club), and the template itself is valid through WP:FPL, as the club is now a Segunda División team. I could not understand the reason of your nom, as it's the same as Template:FC Barcelona squad, Template:Sevilla FC squad and so on.

Can you please explain the nom to me?

Thanks, MYS  77  ✉ 20:30, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at The J. Geils Band discography shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Twinkle and TfD
Hi, just a note that Twinkle isn't that smart when it comes to placing TfD notices on templates. If the template begins with a wikitable or wiki header formatting, then it's going to all get messed up (like here), unless a newline is inserted right after the tfd notice. – Uanfala 09:08, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Just brining this up again: if the template starts with a wikitable, then the tfd nomination will garble it beyond all recognition, see for example. This can be avoided by simply inserting a newline right after the tfd nomination template. Thanks! – Uanfala 13:35, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

I understand your claim that this section is a summary of other articles; however, I do not see an exception to WP:V that would permit the use of other Wikipedia articles as a source for summarized lists.

Texoma Shore
I'm confused as to why you reverted my redirecting an article that failed WP:NALBUMS with the summary "Album released". Yes, you did add two references after the fact, but the concern was that the page was unreferenced—it's irrelevant that the album has now been released, because as I pointed out in my summary, albums that have been released and fail notability still get redirected per WP:NALBUMS. I'm not denying that Blake Shelton is a notable artist or that the article could be expanded, but a notable artist doesn't guarantee notability for everything they release.  Ss 112  01:47, 4 November 2017 (UTC)

Also, I just realised I forgot to reply to your section about Devin Dawson on my talk page. I'm aware who he is and what he's achieved, as I generally update the US Country peaks weekly. However, the article at that time did not communicate his notability, as simply having a charting song or album does not guarantee notability. There are multiple artists who rank on the Country Airplay weekly who don't have articles. Sure, it's an indication they may be notable (or have enough on them to warrant having an article on them), just as WP:NSONGS and the above NALBUMS state, but not a guarantee in and of itself.  Ss 112  01:51, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I thought you would reply here. But I just want to point out—an album having charting singles from it doesn't guarantee notability for the album itself. An artist can chart with singles but totally fail to place with the album. It doesn't mean a lot.  Ss 112  01:57, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, I noted that you expanded Devin Dawson already. However, an artist charting does not guarantee notability for them alone and never has, as stated on WP:MUSICBIO: "may be notable if they meet one of the criteria". That's all I'm trying to say. If I send you a message on your talk page, please reply here in future. Thanks.  Ss 112  01:58, 4 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Northamerica1000. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, it's important to be mindful of the feelings of your fellow editors, who may be frustrated by certain types of interaction, such as your addition to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cognitive and linguistic theories of composition. While you probably didn't intend any offense, please do remember that Wikipedia strives to be an inclusive atmosphere. In light of that, it would be greatly appreciated if you could moderate yourself so as not to offend.

Please stop ordering users to perform edits on articles in the manner you have done at this AfD discussion. North America1000 04:11, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

Please be careful about what you say to people. Some remarks, such as your addition to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Public domain film can easily be misinterpreted, or viewed as harassment.

Edit summary for proposed deletions
Hi, I noticed that you left an edit summary just saying "add" when proposing a page for deletion. This was probably unintentional, but it would have been preferable to make a subsequent dummy edit with the summary "Propose deletion" in order to give fair notice to any page watchers.

Best wishes – Fayenatic  L ondon 10:03, 11 January 2018 (UTC)


 * I came here for similar reasons. Please do try to use edit summaries to sum up your changes correct. Calling this a "fix" or changing a tag "add" is not helpful and can even be misleading.

AfD/PROD @ AN/I...
Sorry that shit is going south on you, I just bumped into the thread yesterday, after the snowball was already rolling downhill. The poet John Trumbull wrote, "No man e'er felt the halter draw / With good opinion of the law," but I hope you don't let the AN/I festivities get to you. The comment made that there are plenty of other ways for you to help WP is apt, so please do try to avoid being bitter. I think the path back will require a year or so's worth of solid AfD participation pumping up the "agrees with consensus" numbers, avoidance of aggressive language (I know you don't suffer fools gladly; you'll need to learn to suffer them silently), and some earnest self-criticism showing understanding about what got people steamed in the first place. That'll take some introspection, of course.

In any event, I know some of the good stuff you've done for the project and I hope you continue to do that. Nominating stuff for deletion is a microscopic aspect of keeping this site on the path to improvement, as you know. Don't feel bad about any of the bullshit; you've been around here long enough to know that there is indeed some bullshit that must be endured. best, —tim /// Carrite (talk) 12:43, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

About Google.
Hello TenPoundHammer.

I noticed you have been having problems searching on google, this I noticed on Articles for deletion/Tropical marine climate and Articles for deletion/Felipe Cardeña where you ask Why does this stuff never come up when I google things?.

I don't know your location and it could be caused by any number of reasons, but it is most likely related to your search preferences, lanaguge settings, browser settings or region. The best way to find the most Google search results is to to use a fresh browser, don't login to Google, and if applicable use a VPN to access the United States https://www.google.com/ website (In Europe certain sites are restricted from Google for privacy reasons for example, other regional differences apply). Google also has helpful guides such as this for more advanced search syntax. Generally speaking just putting the search term in " " quotes into your local google site will not give you anywhere near the full results.

I hope this helps. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 13:45, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Talk:Forest Fair Village/GA1
TenPoundHammer, I noticed you tried to add a note on the WP:GAN page, but you aren't supposed to edit that page directly since the bot rewrites it every 20 minutes; the message has since disappeared.

I'm happy to add to your note on the reviewer's talk page, if you'd like me to. If, despite the note, they haven't returned to the review in the next several days, I'm also happy to arrange to have the nomination put back into the GAN pool with no loss of seniority, to wait for another reviewer. You may or may not wish to do that, depending on whether you think it's worth waiting for AmericanAir88 to return, since the backlog of unreviewed nominations is currently over 400.

Adding a note, which I don't think is necessary at this point, can be done by editing the GA nominee template on the article's talk page and adding the note text to the |note= field. The bot will pick up the note, typically in under half an hour, and add it, properly formatted, to the GAN page. Best of luck with this nomination. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:59, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:54, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

Idea
I read your AN thread. I believe you should rescue articles instead of putting them up for deletion. I have added sources to and expanded at least half dozen of unreferenced articles from the BLP backlog. It looks better if you save an article than delete it. Maybe you can join the Article Rescue Squad, and collaborate with us there. Once you do that maybe you will be allowed to go back to deletion activities without any restrictions. You should delete, not the articles in the backlog but those tags on them by fixing them up JC7V7DC5768 (talk) 17:27, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Frustrated reverts
TPH, I know exactly where you're coming from with this, this and this; I do the same sort of editing myself. However, we've just had a protracted AN thread about your problems at XfD, and your general conduct of "why the f*** can't anyone add any f***ing sources" did come up for criticism. Can you just dial it back a bit, because I'd hate diffs like this to be used against you in a future noticeboard thread. Cheers. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  11:51, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Agree, just came here because of this, I guess a topic ban from blanking articles is on its way. I noticed that TPH has a recent history of blanking articles with the edit summary "not notable" or "no sources found" when there clearly are sources. Should be more careful. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 22:53, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * This is reason to reinstate the whole XfD topic ban and extend it to blanking as well. He was given the WP:ROPE and this is what he did with it. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:23, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Andy Dingley (talk) 23:24, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Seems to have been going on for at least a couple of years . There's no way that he does any kind of WP:BEFORE before blanking the articles, using that one as an example, a simple Google search is all I needed to confirm that sources do indeed exist . The other ones I notice are in fact, WP:PERMASTUBs, such as the ones you linked, but "not notable" is not accurate, and "no sourcing found" is a lie when there are sources. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:54, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Songfacts is not a reliable source as its content is user submitted, but the Billboard source is definitely fine. I did do WP:BEFORE on at least the Julie Reeves songs and came up with nothing. My redirects were not meant as a means of eliminating the content, but rather a way of saying "This is currently a stub that, per WP:NSONGS, can be redirected to the album or artist". I have no problem whatsoever with the redirects being undone (although I would greatly prefer it if the undoer would add sources while doing so). I'm not trying to permanently eliminate the content. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 06:20, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Maybe it needs deletion (or redirection). The problem is that we do not trust you to do that, as such a single-handed action.
 * If you think it needs deletion, then use PROD or AfD, and throw it into an appropriate open forum for discussing that. But the idea that, because you'd until recently been banned from XfD altogether, so now you should just do the same deletions (because song deletions are pretty much always going to end up as redirects to the artist) as quiet redirects and hope no-one notices, is just not a good idea. Andy Dingley (User talk:Andy Dingley|talk]]) 08:57, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Reinstating the topic ban seems reasonable (NB: I have never had any interaction with TPH before this ). I have just dug up this and it seems that it has been going on for years and I think it should be dealt with (again). -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 06:45, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Adding things to the Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia
I am writing to you since I don't have much experience editing Project Pages but you seem to be the expert on that Page. I already put this in the Talk page.

After seeing that the "Spanish Tickler" was a long-lasting hoax I found that the Mask of infamy, Heretic's fork, and Knee splitter which all came from the same hoax sources. They were all deleted on 20 July 2018. You can still see them using the archive.org website.


 * "Heretic's fork" had existed since at least July 2006. This archive shows that it was in the category of "Articles lacking sources from July 2006" archive. That means it lasted at least 12 years.
 * "Knee splitter" had existed since at least February 2009. This archive shows that it had been an "orphaned article" since February 2009 February 2009. That means it lasted at least 9 years.
 * "Mask of infamy" had existed since at least 2008 since it had a source retrieved then. . That means it lasted at least 10 years.

Can these be added to the page as long-lasting hoaxes?

Proposed deletion of File:Beersound.jpg


The file File:Beersound.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Non-free album cover being used in a decorative manner in Beer for My Horses (film). Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in WP:FILMSCORE"

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

I didn't think that was a good idea.

List of names in English with counterintuitive pronunciations keeps growing, and having more babies too
Looks like List of names in English with counterintuitive pronunciations inspired another editor to create a similar list at Silent English alphabet. FWIW, I'm honestly coming to the point where I believe Wikipedia long ceased merely being an encyclopedia, and that WP:N should just be scrapped, or at least greatly expanded. WP:V is worth fighting for, as that keeps away lawsuits, among other things, but I just don't think we'll ever put the strict notability genie back in the bottle.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Blocked for incivility/personal attacks/etc.
Based on the evidence presented in this discussion, the concerns of several editors that your comments in edit summaries are not acceptable, and your response to those concerns, I am blocking your account for 1 week. I presume you can figure out how to use either unblock or WP:UTRS to request an unblock should you wish to edit Wikipedia before the block expires. I would recommend any unblock request indicates how you intend to change the way you interact with others. -- Jayron <b style="color:#090">32</b> 20:05, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

 * I know it's hard to bite the bullet and apologize when you're at wits' end, but you would not have been blocked, had you simply backed off and apologized for becoming a little too hostile. You're a legendary editor with a clean block log. You undoubtedly know what we want to hear in this situation, and we will be perfectly reasonable if you change your tone in an unblock request. If you genuinely just want to step away, that's fine, but you should know that it's not too late to resolve this situation amicably. Regards, ~Swarm~   {talk}  06:39, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

 * So you said something to someone that was civil, after a grossly obnoxious tirade against them and only after you were taken to task for it. What do you want, a medal? The bottom line, TPH, is that you will curb your disgraceful behaviour towards others or it will be curbed for you - I'm surprised you've been allowed to get away with it for so long and that your block log is so sparse.

Like a River to the Sea
I saw your G6 tag, and understand what you're trying to do and why you need admin assistance.

 * If you go to Like a River to the Sea (song), click "Move" and type "Like a River to the Sea" as the destination, you should now get a message "The destination page "Like a River to the Sea" already exists. Do you want to delete it to make way for the move?" and an additional checkbox, "Yes, delete the page". Click on that checkbox, then click "Move" and the old DAB page will automatically be G6 deleted. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  14:00, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Hmmm. I've never had the page mover right without having admin rights, so I'm not sure - check the instructions at WP:ROBIN and see if User:Andy M. Wang/pageswap is helpful, or failing that, ask at WP:VPT. I'd like to know the answer so I can give somebody else this advice in future. I've seen non admins delete things per G6 so it's definitely doable. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  14:38, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I just re-tagged it for G6 since it's uncontroversial. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:43, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
 * In a case like that, it's best to go back to that user to sort it out. CSD isn't for complicated, weird cases - they just clog up the system (and really, since it was declined, I can't reasonably conclude it's definitely uncontroversial in this case). Wily D  05:49, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Non-admins (regardless of whether they are page movers or not) can only delete redirects with one revision that point to the page they are trying to move (although there is a proposal on phabricator to relax that to "pages that have always been redirects, regardless of target and number of revisions"). What page movers can do is move pages without leaving a redirect (which then lets them move a new page to the vacated title, and if done three times in succession allows them to swap the titles of two pages). The page mover right isn't really suited to what TenPoundHammer is trying to do here, so an admin would be necessary. * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun... 20:18, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

Uptown Funk
Hello,

Let me start by thanking you for reviewing Uptown Funk, but that review was quite fast. The bot didn't even assumed it and you forgot to add it to the Wikipedia:Good articles page, I did it for you. Actually, it might be one of my best works so far, so no worries. However, be careful with the reviews, you barely pointed out anything and some nominators/reviwers might have something to say about it and not enjoy that kind of process.

Greetings, MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 00:44, 13 October 2019 (UTC)


 * TenPoundHammer, it is indeed unusual to post and pass a review at the same time. There was also a problem with the GA template you created on the article talk page, which didn't have all of the required fields; I fixed it when I noticed the issue. (It's probably safest to copy the template at WP:GANI and fill it in, so you don't forget any required fields.) Also, although it happened with a different review, please don't edit the WP:GAN page directly; the bot recreates it every 20 minutes, and automatically generates the proper format for the various entries. if you open a review page, the bot will pick up on it. (The edit was not formatted correctly, and could have caused issues if it hadn't been overwritten with valid formatting by the bot.) Thanks for your work at GAN; I'm sure you'll learn the various ins and outs in no time. BlueMoonset (talk) 08:28, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Scotty McCreery Tour section
Hi! I was wondering why you deleted Scotty McCreery's tour section on his page. I think it's relevant to his bio & I've seen other artists pages have touring info (some with very little touring). Thanks in advance. Tiffany240 (talk) 23:10, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure I've seen several articles/sources for each of these tours. If these sources are added, can this section be re-added to the page? Also, from the content on the page it seems at least 3 of the tours in question don't seem to be elsewhere in the page. The tours also happen to be his most recent tours (w/Old Dominion, Jimmie Allen, etc.). If it's a matter of content which is already referenced elsewhere, it seems a good amount is not in the article.Tiffany240 (talk) 24:18, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

It is currently passing on every dimension except 1a (clear prose) and 2b (reliable sources)—criteria on which it is close to being a good article and just needs some attention from you! Great work, TenPoundHammer, for your hard work on this article over the last 7 months, as well as for their patience in waiting for this article to be GA reviewed (6 months 12 days on the wait list—crazy).


 * GA Status: Close to GA pass! Needs attention from you in the outlined areas. I've given a lot of comments on the article's prose for clarity and readability. These may feel like a burden (really sorry—you've done great work so far), but I'll feel GREAT about this as a good article once they're addressed! If my comments are unduly fine-toothed, I'll welcome the advice of a GA mentor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shrinkydinks (talk • contribs) 00:58, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Sacred Harp wiki
There's a lot of information about Sacred Harp that's probably not encyclopedic. In addition to How Sacred Harp music is sung which you recently PRODed, there's also Leading Sacred Harp music and Pitching Sacred Harp music. When I first saw those articles I took a fairly lenient tack and left them as they were, but what do you think about migrating this stuff to an external platform, like Wikia or something?

Steve Wariner
Hi! Thanks for checking that. Was not aware about the number's under ten nor the POV language. I will keep editing and finish Steve's article today. I will recommend to you before I make any final decisions that you add another paragraph or 2 to the overview of his article. He's had a long career and I think it would be helpful for readers to get a glimpse of that in the overview. Right now, it's not reading like that and more can be added. Also, if you look at other GA music articles, many of the artists that have had long careers have a longer intro. Perhaps you could organize the overview with one paragraph that highlights some of his work from the 80s. Then, a separate paragraph for the 90's/2000's. I think by doing so, it will present his career a little better. ChrisTofu11961 (talk) 19:27, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

JeremyLR68
Hi Ten Pound Hammer, regarding the T. Graham Brown discography studio album additions, I have the "From a Stronger Place" album in front of me and can take photos of the front and rear covers and CD. It was self-released by Brown's own label Acme Sounds [Capitol had dropped him several years earlier] and sold at his concerts until stock became depleted. In 2008 the indie Nashville label Aspirion Records re-issued "From a Stronger Place," but that release also went out of print.

There is a May 9, 1996, issue of the Shelby Sun Times available on Newspapers.com where Brown reveals that "'From a Stronger Place' is the title cut from the new album we're finishing up.".

Also, Brown gave a 2011 interview to Medium where he details how he came to record "From a Stronger Place." I have copied and pasted his relevant comments below in three paragraphs.

'''From a Stronger Place slipped in virtually under the radar. '''

T Graham Brown: We cut all nine songs in my home studio in 1995 with Steve Wariner and Marty Stuart — good buddies of mine — on guitar and mandolin, respectively. From a Stronger Place contained the original version of “Wine into Water,” and Steve played guitar and sang harmony. It was so good that we had him do it again when we re-cut it in 1998 on the official Wine into Water album. One crazy memory that is burned in my mind…I was upstairs, looked down, and there were two black snakes in the swimming pool. Very strange and it never happened again.

We later went to Hodgenville, Kentucky, best known as the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, to mix the record at a church turned studio. I remember sleeping in the converted Sunday school classrooms and grilling out on an old grill. The guy had an automated A.M. radio station in the church building. The sanctuary was a big recording room with Iso booths — aka sound isolation — along the perimeter. The control room was where the pulpit and choir space was. There was even a baptismal.

We didn’t spend hardly any money on it, maybe $2,000. We had a few CD’s made and called them “advance copy.” They were only available at my concerts. I would have to look for a bit to find any, because we sold out and didn’t have any more made. It’s a very cool record to have been cut at the house. This was before anyone had Pro Tools on their laptop and could record anywhere there was a mic. In 2008 I decided to release it on a wider scale via Aspirion Records, and you can find it digitally or on CD. Aspirion was a small label in Nashville largely devoted to distribution — getting albums into stores. The label didn’t really do projects or put up much of a budget for them. It’s no longer in existence.

In June 2020 Time Life Music digitally reissued four of Brown's studio albums including "From a Stronger Place."

In October 2020 Brown dropped "Bare Bones," acoustic reimaginings of 12 of his greatest hits courtesy of the same label--Time Life. I am not an expert at adding citations on Wiki so fingers crossed you are able to access each one. Lastly, "Praguefrank's Country Music Discographies" has the most extensive Brown sessionography and discography online.

August for GANs
In case you didn't see it, Comfortable Chair has not been signing on since late July regarding your GAN currently active. ErnestKrause (talk) 14:22, 21 August 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Mickey Guyton/GA1
TenPoundHammer, I noticed that you've been trying to get the attention of The Most Comfortable Chair to get them to return to their review; unfortunately, they haven't edited on Wikipedia at all since July 31, just about a month ago.

How would you like to proceed? After a month, I think we can consider the nomination abandoned by the reviewer; would you like this to go back into the pool of nominations awaiting a reviewer? There would be no loss in seniority, and the nomination would be the oldest of the unreviewed nominations if that were to happen. If you'd like to wait a little longer, we can do that, too: the nomination will be three months old on September 13. Please let me know. Thanks, and I'm sorry for the delays you've had. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:50, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
 * That sounds like a plan to me. Go for it. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:59, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I just heard back from The Most Comfortable Chair on their talk page, and they send apologies for not withdrawing sooner.

Best of luck in getting a new reviewer soon. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:18, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

Nothing But the Truth
Hi – I noted you removed the notability tag from this article yesterday. I don't disagree that the article has sources, but I question whether any of the sources display any notability for the album. The second and fourth sources are a biography of McAnally and just mention the album in a list of releases. The first source is a primary source interview with McAnally in a local magazine which focuses on his life rather than the album. The third source doesn't appear to mention the album or the artist at all. And the fifth source shows chart positions for the single, which already has its own article, so it's just duplicating the information there. I know you are interested in country music, so do you know of any sources that would show the album itself is actually notable? Richard3120 (talk) 17:09, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I found a pretty substantial writeup on the album in Orange Coast magazine which I added to the article. The album had a major charted single which is also a pretty obvious sign of notability. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:36, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, I can't say I agree with either of those points, personally – the write-up you talk about is the interview I already mentioned, and I don't think the mention of the album in that article is substantial at all. And I disagree that a major single makes the album notable, that would be WP:INHERITED notability. But I know the artist was certainly notable, so I think there's a good chance that other sources exist in print form from the time. Richard3120 (talk) 23:19, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Levy's (department store)


A tag has been placed on Levy's (department store) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. – S. Rich (talk) 02:27, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Decision to close down AfD discussion on "Mile Road System (Michigan)"
Greetings. Your decision to close down the AfD discussion on "Mile Road System (Michigan)" seems to have been rather hasty and also wrong: There was only one single respondent and the proposal has been up for only a week, which is the minimum time required before closing down an AfD but not the maximum time allowed. As it happens, I'd have suggested a Redirect as well, but that's beside the point. The point is not to create a bad precedent and more misuse of WP:BOLD. Plus, you contravened WP:CLOSEAFD: An editor in good standing who is uninvolved may close AfDs in certain circumstances. You were the initiator! You cannot be more involved than that. I'd suggest you re-open the discussion. Take care. -The Gnome (talk) 16:03, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi! When you nominate a page for deletion, you're generally expected to notify the creators and/or substantial contributors to that page.

Proposed deletion of Rez Biz


The article Rez Biz has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "I created this article in 2008 as a good-faith request from another user, but I don't think it stuck. The sources already in the article are dead and don't seem to have been archived, and I could find no other coverage whatsoever. The award it won is not a notable award."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Articles for deletion/Strict (disambiguation)
Hey, Ten,

Please do not tag any pages that get transcluded, like with speedy deletion tags. Doing so causes all of the pages that the page gets trancluded to to also be tagged for speedy deletion and it can be a challenge tracking down the exact page that has the actual CSD tag on it. In cases like this, it might just be easier to ask an admin friend to delete the page rather than having another admin accidentally delete valid pages that mistakenly display a CSD tag.

Music article question
Hey there! Long time no chat. Got a musician-related article question for you, since I know that's your thing. I'm trying to spur myself into doing some content work, and eyeing up Marcus King as something I think I can push up into GA range with a little work. But, some of the material I'd like to use finds itself over on The Marcus King Band. I'm not totally sure if having two articles is the best idea; he's the bandleader for the MKB, and the band members don't seem to be notable in and of themselves. Would it be your opinion that merging the material from the MKB page to his article and redirecting would be the right way to handle this? If so, I'm going to start an offline rewrite with that in mind. Thanks! Tony Fox (arf!) 05:16, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

removing links to an article that still exist
If the article still exist, you shouldn't go through removing all links to it.

Would you be able to take a quick look at Goodbye Normal Street? My first attempt at writing an album article - would've had somebody look at it before moving to namespace, but needed it to be out of my userspace to add the non-free album cover.

Articles for deletion/Al-Mawrid (2nd nomination)
Hi - I suspect you've read which way the wind's blowing correctly, nevertheless I would recommend self-reverting here and leaving open for another to close. Less than 24 hours is possibly too little time, but the larger concern is WP:INVOLVED. WP:NACD does indicate not to close where one has expressed an opinion. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 21:11, 23 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I thought you were allowed to close AFDs if you withdrew? This seems needlessly bureaucratic. I can't foresee anyone disagreeing to three votes for "redirect" in under 24 hours, so what good would it do to reopen it? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:15, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi - a withdrawal equals keep, so it cannot be closed as redirect. Even a withdrawal (as keep) should not be self-closed. I did have a look at this very briefly, it's an organisation claiming international branches in multiple countries, I'm not totally convinced it's an open and shut case.

Hello, TenPoundHammer,

When I was closing the AFD for this article and looking at the page history, I was surprised to see that it was you who decided that the article was in good enough shape to move it from Draft space to main space.

Hi, TenPoundHammer. I noticed that the article that you wanted to delete was the article, Starveillance due to having no sources. I had to add more possible sources including the ones that you removed to improve the article.

PRODs
Hello, again, TenPoundHammer,

If you look at Category:Proposed deletion as of 24 April 2022, you'll see that there are 269 articles that were PROD'd this day. That is quite a lot more than a typical day which is between about 15-50 articles that are PROD'd. I know you aren't responsible for all of these pages but you PROD'd quite a lot of them!

There's really only two admins who review PRODs these days and each article that is tagged needs to be reviewed individually to make sure it is eligible for proposed deletion. If you could pace yourself and PROD fewer articles each day but over more days, that would help us manage the workload a little better. There is no rush with deleting unnecessary articles and so if you again find a lot of these articles in the future, please think about tagging 10-20/day over a week rather than 100+ on one day.

Also, you really need to post a notification for each of these articles on the talk page of the article creator. I see you use Twinkle, so make sure that the "Notify page creator" box is checked off every time you tag a page for any type of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/TFD/CFD/etc.). This is an important step in the deletion process that shouldn't be skipped. Thank you for doing this with each deletion tagging in the future.

This is a message coming from me, as one of the two admins who regularly review PRODs and I'm just speaking for myself. Reviewing proposed deletions is just one of the tasks I do each day and I can see that next Sunday will be a busy one! Thanks again. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 18:08, 25 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I kinda fell down a rabbit hole full of short-lived TV show articles and just didn't know when to stop. A few of them have already been contested. I'll pace myself next time I find a stretch like that. (I've got my eye on the history shows articles, but I'll pace myself on those.) Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:00, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm working on a list of articles I plan to prod and I'll spread them out over the next however many days so as not to overwhelm the queue.
 * Also I've found that like 80% of the articles I've nominated, the article creator was clearly no longer editing, so in those cases I saw no reason to notify the creator. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:55, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

I don’t understand; you were just asked stop with all the prods, so now you switched to a frenzy of AFDs? And why are so many of them Food Network series?  Erpert  blah, blah, blah... 10:04, 27 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Because they are unsourced stubs for which I could find no sources? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 15:06, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, as pointed out in the AFDs I did nominate, Liz's issues had nothing whatsoever to do with AFD. Are there 300+ television AFDs currently running with my name attached? No. Was my rationale valid? Clearly it must be if others are agreeing that the articles I nominated should be deleted. I also hardly think that fewer than five Food Network shows is "so many".

TV prods
I'm on my smartphone on vacation at a pool and just checked in to see you PROD the ESPN adaptation of The Bronx is Burning. You said you found nothing but PR sources, but, on my phone at a pool, I can see sources like this on the first page of Google results for "The Bronx is Burning" + "John Tuturro". The editor who complained about your PRODs at RFUD may have a point about your WP:BEFORE searches can use work. I can dig into the archives for better sources when I'm back at my laptop. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:40, 8 May 2022 (UTC)


 * I was going off what newspapers.com gave me, which was nothing but TV Guide listings out the ass. My fault for not checking ProQuest, which immediately gave multiple good sources that I added. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:42, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Not to mention all the AFDs I've made that have closed as "delete", or the two GAs and two DYKs I've got in the pipeline.

Full Blown Rose
Hello, TenPoundHammer,

I just deleted this article that you PROD'd and noticed that you didn't post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. Do you make this decision in each case based on whether or not the page creator is an active editor?

Considering how busy you are with tagging pages for different types of deletion, I think it would be simplest if you just set up your Twinkle Preferences to always "Notify page creator" and let Twinkle take care of this in each case, whether or not the editor is still active on Wikipedia. I don't mean to be overly bureaucratic but just doing it, as a rule, is like using your turn signals when you drive whether or not there is a car behind you, it's just a good practice and habit to maintain. Also, some editors might be currently inactive but they set up their Wikipedia Preferences so that they get an email message if someone posts a note to their talk page so there is always a chance, perhaps remote, that they could be notified and come back to improve an article. You never know, it could happen!

Thanks for all of your work on the project, by the way....I don't know how you come across so many marginal articles that either need a little bit of help or to be removed from the encyclopedia. I see your work every day when I patrol CSD categories, look over PROD lists or cruise through the day's AFD log, you are very active and while I don't always agree with your evaluation of articles and their potential improvement, I do appreciate the effort and care you put into the time you spend here. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 21:45, 10 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Sometimes I think it forgets to notify because I reload the page too quickly after prodding or something? Other times I know that the article creator is no longer active and I guess I forget to turn it back on for later ones. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:52, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
 * See, it did it again. Livin' for the Apocalypse, I had "notify creator" turn on and it still didn't do so. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:17, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Kit 'n' Carlyle


The article Kit 'n' Carlyle has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Non-notable comic, thin sourcing at best. I created this ages ago but given its age, G7 might not be justified."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Articles for deletion/Peepoodo & the Super Fuck Friends (2nd nomination)
I have thought long and carefully about if I should write this, if I can find the right words to convey this with kindness, I hope that tone comes through.

Regarding this AfD, there are three things that I wanted to give you feedback on:
 * 1) You seem to have started the AfD on the incorrect belief that the previous and recent AfD only brought up a weak source. It did not, it brought up a reliable, academic source. (A careful reading of the earlier AfD makes that clear)
 * 2) You seem to have doubts about the reliability of a peer reviewed academic source, perhaps because it was written by a PhD student. As others have pointed out robustly, peer reviewed academic sources are generally considered to be ideally suited as sources for an encyclopaedia. I notice that you've not replied to others pointing that out.
 * 3) The fact that this was SNOWBALL closed as keep by the original AfD nominator just a few weeks ago, I suggest, is a worthy of your note and I think if you nominate something so soon after a SNOWBALL keep, there is an onus on your to ascertain why that happened.

With the greatest of humbleness, I ask you to reflect if maybe you are rushing? You nominate a lot of articles for deletion. Many of them succeed. You remove a lot of content. I urge you to take care. And I thank you for your obvious huge effort to improve Wikipedia. CT55555 (talk) 18:37, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

Too many proposed deletions and AfD nominations. Canvassing.
Hi TenPoundHammer. According to this contributions link, between 12 May 2022 and 30 May 2022, you nominated 637 articles for proposed deletion (based on a search of "Notification: proposed deletion"). In the same time period, you created 183 articles for deletion discussions (based on a search of "Creating deletion discussion page"). This is at too fast of a rate. You are averaging 35 proposed deletions a day and 10 AfD nominations a day. I am unable to keep up with finding sources for the deletion discussions listed at WikiProject Deletion sorting/Television. I have had several articles I have wanted to write but have not written. I have instead spent a significant portion of my time participating in the large number of television AfD discussions to find sources so that articles about notable television series are not deleted.

I have concerns about the quality and accuracy of the AfD arguments based on my comment here and 's comments here and here. Please significantly slow down the number of nominations you are making. I think seven seven proposed deletions per week and seven AfD nominations per week would be more reasonable numbers. Would you be willing to reduce the number of deletion nominations to what I have suggested?

I have concerns about canvassing. In a large of AfD nominations for "List of people on the postage stamps" such as Articles for deletion/List of people on the postage stamps of Jordan, you pinged two editors who had previously supported deletion of "List of people on the postage stamps" articles but who had had no prior involvement in the "List of people on the postage stamps of Jordan" article. You did not ping or notify, who had removed the proposed deletion you had added. You did not ping the editors from this AfD who had worked on improving the "List of people on the postage stamps of the Faroe Islands" article. Cunard (talk) 23:35, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

People on postage stamps
Relizing that the German list included Adolf Hitler made me realize something. If there is any encyclopedic value to these lists, and I doubt there is, they need to be organized by year, not alphabetically. Of course, that will in a lot of cases lead to clutter of some monarchy being listed in lots of years. How many years have stamps bearing the likeness of Elizabeth II been issued? Any article that remains I think should be reordered to list the context by year, not alphabetically. That lists can stand for 19 years without sources (March 2003 to May 2022 is actually a little over 19 years) makes me unhopeful that there can ever be enough maintenance on these lists to justify them.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:49, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

A thought on PRODs.
I'm not here to tell you how to go about your business, but I think a lot of these one-shot shows built around a reasonably notable host/star could more easily be merged/redirected to the article on that person. I am specifically thinking here about Elvira's Halloween Special (which I have proposed to redirect to Cassandra Peterson), and Capitol Gains (which I have proposed to merge to Peter Barnes (journalist)). PROD and AFD can invite an almost instinctive opposition based on the sheer desire to keep things in the encyclopedia. Merge proposals, and perhaps even redirect proposals, I think, do not, since they are more about moving content around than about eliminating it. BD2412 T 22:09, 30 May 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm always gunshy on redirects because I've had way too many instances of people reverting them literally less than two seconds after I make them. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:10, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Well if you do it speedily, yes. However, if you put merge to and merge from templates on the respective articles, and open a talk page discussion proposing the merge (with more or less the same rationale as you would put into a deletion discussion), then wait a week or so, you can then accurately say that you made the proposal and no one contested it. I generally frame merge proposals for things like this along the lines of a merge until additional content develops to justify breaking out again, which I think is a particurly strong position to take, since it's not absolute. BD2412  T 22:17, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Every comprehensive philatant source includes hem as a matter of course. Most have articles here. The few that don't ate the sort ofred links that can correct for systematic bias.

Fram (talk) 07:56, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * The article in question is still without sources. Then there was the really nasty comment left on the discussion of List of people on postage stamps of Israel, that amounted to a very rude personal attack against me. I also noticed that DGG's comment comes off as totally incomprehenisble since there are so many misspelled words, including high. Being a long time observer of Wikipia it is obvious to me that Philatelycruft needs to have the brakes put on it, just as we put the brakes on Starwarscruft and Lordoftheringscruft among many others. The level of coverage we currently has is totally out of connection with what is actually justified by what can be found in reliable sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:59, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I think once the dust settles and the outstanding AFDs are closed, the ones closed as keep need to be re-evaluated. (I think @RandomCanadian jumped the gun by re-nominating the Faroe Islands one so quickly.) Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:49, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I have to say this is one of two things that have distracted me from doing what I really want to do, which is to get through reviewing Category:1901 births.

"Although many smaller countries will put a hodge-podge of international personalities on their stamps in an effort to make sales to collectors, countries with a more respectable issuing policy will more often feature people who have played an important role in the country's own history and culture.

Proposed deletion of Something in the Orange


The article Something in the Orange has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: '''Songs appears non notable. 3 of the sources are Billboard...which is irrelevant because just charting does not automatically mean there should be an article for it. The USA Today source just says that the song is on a Spotify playlist. The CMT article mentions the song in passing, but the article is about the artist, not the song. The Rolling Stone article give a small capsule review of the song, not in-depth enough to count towards notability.

Alternate to deletion would be a redirect to the album.'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Edits at List of awards and nominations received by The Wire
We seem to be going back and forth on wording in the lead here. called the section "POV", which doesn't make sense by itself – it's perfectly acceptable to cite opinions as long as they are attributed (which the lead does by remarking "Many have called..." and citing four independent sources). After I undid it, you then and called it "subjective" and "fan-like". Again, subjectivity shouldn't be an issue since this is well-sourced, and issues with tone don't justify deletion. I'm open to suggestions for different wording, but when reliable sources say "The Wire might forever be the biggest Emmy snub of all time" and "This might be Exhibit A in the case against the validity of the Primetime Emmy Awards", outright removal feels unjustified.

British TV
Hello, TenPoundHammer,

I was noticing all of these empty categories for American TV in the 1920s and tracked them down to articles that were deleted in an AFD you started for articles that they use to contain. If you are interested in this subject, there are similar articles for 1920s British TV that you might want to look over in Category:Television in the United Kingdom by year. I still think a merger of these articles into one for a decade might be more useful than an outright deletion. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 21:49, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Beat Charlie Moore
In your prod for Beat Charlie Moore, you said Zero results on ProQuest, Newspapers.com, or GNews. Not even directory/TV Guide type results.

I'm not sure how you failed to get results with Newspapers.com. In addition to hundreds of TV schedule listings (I gave up after 50 pages of results), I also found these following refs. As Moore's article states, From 2004 to 2010, Moore hosted ESPN's Beat Charlie Moore, which was the sports network's top-rated outdoors show (bold mine), supported by Boston Magazine. And on ProQuest, I found that Chuck Woolery won an Emmy for his guest appearance on Beat Charlie Moore. I'll remove the prod and do some work on the article later with these sources. (I know my first ref displays an error, I have to figure out how to include a URL for each page.) Schazjmd   (talk)  17:16, 10 June 2022 (UTC)


 * If a newspaper article is split between two pages, I just link the first one and put both page names in the "page" field. I legitimately got nothing but directory listings after checking every page of ProQuest and, like you, found nothing but 50 pages of directory listings mixed in with a few false positives. Good work.

False HAMMERs
I recently spotted a dispute at Untitled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film and thought, "oh boy, that looks like a textbook WP:HAMMER" - but I can't in all good conscience send it to AfD as it's got too many sources to Variety, for one thing. Elsewhere I see Untitled Marvel Halloween special, Untitled fifth Indiana Jones film and Untitled Nas album. Have things started changing so that reliable sources are more likely to cover works in progress (possible if they've all been stalled because of COVID) or are these just exceptions to the rule? <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  15:42, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * WP:HAMMER always had exceptions. That's why I said "likely". Even from the beginning, I added a notable exception. Also, the Untitled Nas album isn't a WP:HAMMER, as it was releasexd in 2008 and officially has no title. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 15:46, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Oh right - shouldn't it be Untitled (Nas album) then? <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  15:47, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Single charts
I've seen plenty of articles on albums that include charts for the album's singles. Personally, I think that these charts are useful, and even if it's more common for articles not to have these charts than to have them, I think it makes a lot of sense to have them. Is there a specific policy against them? Jpcase (talk) 21:03, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * My interpretation of WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice is that it should only include the albums charts such as Top Country Albums or Billboard 200. To include the singles charts too is redundant to the artist discography and prone to clutter, especially if the artist has made a large number of charts. The chart info should be contained on the discography table and the articles of individual songs where applicable. Furthermore, if you look at good or featured articles on albums, such as 1989 (Taylor Swift album), they do not include the singles discographies in the album article proper. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:07, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice doesn't say that you should "only" include album charts. It leaves the matter open-ended. Personally, I don't think it makes the article cluttered. It's nice having all of that information together in one place. I don't really edit articles about albums that often, but whenever I read those articles, I'm generally interested in knowing how any album's singles charted, and it's nice not having to navigate to a separate discography article for that information. So I'm always glad whenever I see that chart info about singles has been included in an album's article. --Jpcase (talk) 21:25, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Rapid fire deletions without due diligence and your prior AN/I
As a heads up you appear to be recreating the behavior that led to this previous AN/I - rapid fire deletions in a particular field without due care and attention. Of particular concern to me are this prod and this AfD two where it is particularly obvious you have done no investigation despite a claim of WP:BEFORE. Given the rapid pace at which you are blanking/prodding/AfDing webcomics articles I am sure there are more. I would request that you slow down and take more care - if not the matter may be raised at AN/I again with the addition of the false claims you've made since the close of the last one (and the close of evidence gathering from the resulting arbComm.)

I'm not sure if you are somebody who appreciates notifications like this. But I noticed that "Leave the Light On" by Bailey Zimmerman does not yet have an article.

 * I identified in the nomination that at least one free image of the group exists. So if used as non-free, the image you uploaded is replaceable with a free image.   Many publicity photos from that era are public domain but you have to provo it.  I could not b establish that for the photo you uploaded so a license change to PD was not possible.  -- Whpq (talk) 22:57, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Would this one be viable? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:26, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, it would qualify as PD-US-no notice. It is usually a good idea in these cases to upload the back of the photo first, and then upload the front of the photo as a new version of the same file just to show the back and front for proof that the no notice conditions have been met.  The only thing is that the listing version of the image is splatted with watermarks. -- Whpq (talk) 03:33, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

 * I switched it with an already available one from 2018. If you have a newer image that you own, or that comes from a Creative Commons-licensed site, then you can upload that. The only other option would be to contact Hubbard or his label personally and ask if they'd be willing to donate one. But "it's outdated" is not in and of itself a reason to have no image at all if properly licensed ones exist. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:12, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

 * No, it's his facebook profile photo. I see that it got reverted again. How can we get that image to stay? Countrymusicfan012 (talk) 17:30, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Then that means he owns it and it can't be used unless he or his reps say so; you putting it on Commons is a copyright violation. Best we can do is the 2018 image. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:34, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Find out who owns the rights to the image and have them follow the instructions here. Have whoever owns the image e-mail it to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org following the template at that link. That way, the response team on Wikimedia Commons has a written declaration of the image being released for use. Until then, the 2018 image is the best we can do.

Thanks for closing the ANI report. I meant to do that but forgot. You mentioned one IP address which the editor has used, but I saw several more. As far as I remember none of those that I saw has edited recently enough to justify a block, but it's pretty likely, based on history, that the editor will now evade the block. If you see anything that looks like that, please feel welcome to let me know, and I'll consider blocking IP addresses or sockpuppets. JBW (talk) 19:10, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

What you mean by no lists? Nostalgia Zone (talk) 20:01, 23 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Shopping mall articles should not have lists of anchors, as listing any store violates WP:NOTDIR. This was established as early as 2008. If you look at any good article-class shopping mall article such as Colonial Plaza, at no point does it resort to a list. The anchors can and should be included in the text.

Who was this aimed at?
Who are you talking to here? Nobody intentionally tagged the article as a stub after it grew to the size it is now, and it was obviously just not removed yet. Even at seven-thousand bytes, as I finished editing it after initially creating it, it was still primarily a track listing without a single complete prose section, which is what the album WikiProject guidelines state a stub is. Arguably it was already start-class, but I was erring on the side of caution as I often do when creating articles on albums yet to be released. Again, the main point here is that it's not like it was intentionally left there because I already knew it was at least start-class when it was released:.  Ss  112   23:38, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

Palenque Norte Deletion Discussion
Hi, can you link me to the discussion on the deletion of Palenque Norte? I clicked through the logs from May 25, 2022 back to the end of the month but wasn’t able to find the record. If I’m missing something obvious, forgive my ignorance as I haven’t been an active editor for some time now, but this particular deletion result strikes me as surprising so I’d like to understand what went into the decision. Thanks. Nathan McKnight -- Aelffin (talk) 08:37, 17 March 2023 (UTC)


 * There was no discussion. It was deleted via WP:PROD which does not form a discussion page. According to the deletion log the reasoning was "Not notable; lacking coverage in independent sources". If you think you can rescue the page, you can ask for it to be un-deleted at WP:REFUND. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 15:58, 17 March 2023 (UTC)

Jelly Roll
Hi TPH. As I assume you're more familiar with Jelly Roll's career than I am, would you happen to know or think that he is still releasing songs to rock radio from Whitsitt Chapel? CloversMallRat removed "She" and "Unlive" as singles from the album, which I initially reverted, then reinstated as I can't find evidence that they were released to radio (making them "proper" singles). I figured they were released to rock radio as they've only charted on the Rock Songs chart and not any country charts, but perhaps not. I still don't think Jelly Roll would only be releasing singles to country radio as he's never been exclusively a country artist but in the absence of evidence I'm leaning towards not calling them singles.  Ss  112   02:26, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

A reminder to please test artists' chart links when you create song articles
TPH, I know you probably find it annoying, but I think I've asked you twice here before to please test the links generated by the single chart templates to see if they work. I've just tagged you on the two articles it occurred on today, and on George Birge's song article you even had "Nate Smith" as the artist. Both Nate Smith and George Birge do not have artist chart history pages on Billboard yet. There are a number of country artists who still don't. Yes, I know it's inconvenient, and yes, Billboard's site is stupid and inconsistent. I'm not accusing you of adding false chart positions, but you know as well as anyone information needs to be properly verifiable with working links. Please just copy the sources from their discography tables in future if you notice the links don't work—they're always supplied on the artists' articles if they don't have chart history pages, as I've ensured this.

You were the first WP editor that I met... in May of 2008. You responded to a (("help me")) request and then sent me on my way into WikiWorld. Thank you for that. Since that time editing Wikipedia has become a part of my daily life. I see that you like to create articles for musicians. I wonder if I could ask you to take some time and take a look at User:Buster7/sandbox-Zachary Rapp-Rovan and assist me in creating a quality article. It has been years since I created any biographical articles and those, in no way, required the dexterity of creating an article about a professional musician. Rapp-Rovan is also a graffiti artist which is how I became aware of him through a gallery showing of his artwork last year in Chicago. An article that presents the duality of his creativity is my goal. Any time or collaboration or advice you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Either you'll have no topic ban anymore, in which case a DRV request is fine, or you'll still have a topic ban, in which case a clarification request from the admin who imposed the ban would make sense.

Redirecting an article that was kept at an AfD you started
Hi TenPoundHammer. You nominated Monkey-ed Movies for deletion at Articles for deletion/Monkey-ed Movies in May 2022. I provided sources at the AfD, which was closed as "keep". Today, you redirected the article with the edit summary "redirect to more notable spinoff per lack of sources". Please do not redirect articles when sources exist and have been found already. Thank you. Cunard (talk) 11:03, 2 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Over the past few days, you've redirected Monkey-ed Movies (link), Skating's Next Star (link), Monkey Life (link), 2 Minute Drill (game show) (link), and Monsters We Met (link) for lacking sources. I've been able to find sources for all of these so have reverted the redirects. I am worried that this is resuming what happened at Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1101. The ANI report led to Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing, which resulted in a topic ban from deletion discussions. Please stop redirecting television articles that you cannot find sources for. It is time-consuming to find sources for so many articles and then source and expand them. Cunard (talk) 12:43, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for rescuing these articles. One of my frustrations with AFD prior to the topic ban was when someone would come along and say "keep, I found sources", and the article would get kept but nobody got around to adding them to the article. Of course, I could have just fixed this by adding them myself and not haranguing you and/or other editors. I did take your sources into consideration when I redirected those articles, as I was uncertain if any of them were sufficient. Since you've decided to undo the redirects and add the sources, I'm not going to fight it. I apologize for hounding you on this in the past, and thank you again for fixing them up. If you see anything else on User:TenPoundHammer/Article cleanup that might need a fix, you're welcome to do it as I trust your source-finding skills. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:26, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I understand your frustration with articles remaining unsourced. I try my best to find sources at each AfD I participate in. I do not always add sources to the articles because in many cases, there are many AfDs I want to participate in and there is just not enough time. I hope that other AfD participants will share the workload of adding sources. And I want to leave time for my other Wikipedia activities like writing articles on topics I'm interested in. Redirecting can be considered pseudo-deletion. In the past few days, you've redirected five television series articles where I was able to find sources to meet Notability. Regarding taking the sources I found into consideration and being uncertain they were insufficient, in the case of Monkey-ed Movies, there was a consensus at Articles for deletion/Monkey-ed Movies to "keep". Please stop redirecting articles as it is leading to notable topics no longer having articles. When editors have redirected large numbers of articles in the past, I've suggested that they take the articles to AfD which draws a larger audience since much fewer editors will notice a bold redirect. But as you have a topic ban from deletion discussions, you cannot take them to AfD. If the topic ban was not in place, I'd be worried about too many AfD nominations happening again. I hope you continue your good work at User:TenPoundHammer/Article cleanup on sourcing articles but recommend that you stop redirecting articles. Cunard (talk) 09:23, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Charlestowne Mall Removal Mistake

 * You made a mistake because there is PHOTO PROOF of the Marshalls store being there at Charlestowne Mall. Apparently I can’t source it because apparently Facebook links are not reliable even though the photos came from a government organization.

Thanks
I saw that a few years ago you removed content that had sourced iTunes from an article about an album Larry Norman released in 1969. Your article summary was classic! ("iTunes, really?). That article is a mess and I am working on it now. I am SO grateful when I stumble across wise editors like you who aren't afraid to be bold and cut content en masse when the content is inappropriate. Although it's been a few years, I still want to say thanks, because editors don't get enough praise even when it's due. MarydaleEd (talk) 00:50, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
