New Page Patrol
Good work on New Page Patrol. The speedy criteria can be found here. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 01:17, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. Also thanks for rv'ing the talk page. However, I was actually the one that removed the clockwork in the first place... That was my school's IP. Anyway, I did read the speedy section and I'm currently looking for the Non Notable information... Bladeswin 01:19, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
S/he's a newbie. I'll try to encourage them to fix these articles. JackyR 03:00, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Okey dokie. I just work with what I see. - Bladeswin 14:25, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Copyvios
Always remember to remove the text from articles that you've tagged as copyvios. Where articles meet the Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion it's best to tag them accordingly. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:58, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Okey dokie, didn't click that copyvio goes up, text goes down. Now I know! Thanks. - Bladeswin 14:25, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. I see that you prodded Glochowsky's law. You seem to be right about it needing deleted, but it had actually already been prodded before, so I moved the discussion to AfD as a contested deletion. Probably for recently created hoaxes you might as well send them straight to AfD, since the creator is likely to remove the tag without good reason.
Anyway, it's at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Glochowsky's law. NickelShoe 15:21, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- I didn't know if it was simply a typo (making it a real-ish article) nor did I know that it had been deleted before. The prod tag seemed proper for the page. - Bladeswin 15:55, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- That's cool. I can see what you mean about it possibly being a typo. Good point. It hadn't been deleted before, just proposed for deletion. Somebody removed the prod tag, and you stuck it on again, not realizing that it had already been contested. Prod is only for uncontroversial deletions, so once it's removed, it doesn't go back. See Wikipedia:Proposed deletion#What this process is NOT for. NickelShoe 16:28, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Yepper, if I knew it'd been prodded before, I woulda put it in AFD. - Bladeswin 00:27, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
Re:GCHS
I could combine the two tables and have the ACT and SAT scores displayed in one table. Douglasr007 00:11, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Jake?
Hey its Aaron. I just got started on WP and I saw your GCHS article. I figured it was you because of the emphasis on theatre and the hockey and geek stuff on your user-page. Take a look at my article for Moe's Southwest Grill and see what you think. My AIM is kanuut. Just wanted to say hello! Later man!
- I'm thinking you're Sally's Aaron? I'm not totally sure, but I think so. Also a test of my signature. - Bladeswin | Talk to me | 21:36, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- Yep! Nice to hear from you! Also, thanks for your help on that article. I'm still getting used to the Wiki language.--Lwieise -=- Talk to Me 18:03, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
- You'll get used to it eventually. Like everything, there's a definite learning curve. You doing any theatre at college? - Bladeswin | Talk to me | 21:05, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
Your request
Hi. I've enforced semi-protection in Gulf Coast High School, as you requested. Do you expect that the problem with your colleague will be solved eventually? Please notice that page protection is a temporary measure (even semi-protection). Regards, Redux 03:57, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Sports logo
Yes, the logo should only really be used on the page about the team. Fair use has to add significantly to an article, and illustrate the subject of the text. ed g2s • talk 08:22, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Request for comments on article naming
Talk:World Junior Ice Hockey Championships If you're interested. Thanks.

I certainly won't can't stop you doing an AfD. A google search shows that it is legit and it would seem reasonable for WP to have an article on this, but it does need expansion admittedly (I added a little bit). There were at least two incoming links from other articles. I don't believe speedy was appropriate here. -- I@n 03:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi, you tagged the above for copyright violation. However, the vio has been committed only in the later revisions and so I've reverted it to a non-infringing version. You could do the same if you come across an article which is not copyvio in its earlier versions instead of bringing it all the way to WP:CP. As that page declares in the box, "Revert the page to a non-copyrighted version if you can. The infringing text will remain in the page history for archival reasons unless the copyright holder asks the Wikimedia Foundation to remove it." Cheers!! --Gurubrahma 13:42, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
