Dominic Ierace Error

[edit]

I erroneously created a page. I misspelled the artist's name. How can it be removed? The page is Dominic Ireace. It should be Ierace, instead. (I already created the latter at Dominic Ierace).

It's just a redirect and, just perhaps, someone may misspell it like I did so maybe it doesn't need deletion.

Regardless, I'd like some input.

I've deleted the misspelled page for you :) --ST47Talk·Desk 21:26, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! DeeKenn 22:33, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In the future, you can request that a page be speedily deleted by putting the appropriate {{db- }} tag at the top of it. See the Wikipedia:Criteria for Speedy Deletion page for information on how and when to do this. --Runner5k 11:45, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • 04:23, 30 July 2007 (hist) (diff) What a Fool Believes (→External link - Removed external link. Video pulled from YouTube.)

Why? Pdfpdf 10:32, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The editing description, I thought, said it all. The link pointed to a video from YouTube that is no longer there. I don't thinking linking to a video that is being reproduced without the appropriate rights is a good idea, also.DeeKenn 13:37, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(I prefer to see both sides of the conversation in the same place.)

  • The editing description only says the what, not the why. So no, it doesn't say it all.
  • I hadn't realised that it was no longer there. (It was there last time I looked ... ) So, OK, that in itself is a more than good enough reason to remove the link.
  • However, the editing description says: "Removed external link. Video pulled from YouTube"; i.e. this "explanation" doesn't say anything about the video not being there, or why is should be removed. So all I'm left with is your subsequent reply: "I don't thinking linking to a video that is being reproduced without the appropriate rights is a good idea". So, again, I would ask: "Why?". (However, as the video is no longer there, this is a somewhat academic question, and your answer won't make any difference to the situation, so it would seem somewhat pointless to ask.)

Case closed? Pdfpdf 10:15, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As I previously said, as far as I'm concerned, the "case" is "closed" - the fact that the video is no longer there is excellent justification for the edit you made.

However, it seemed to me that you were seeking a response from me.
If so, I include one below.
If not, just ignore what's below.
Cheers, Pdfpdf 11:14, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't ignore the below response. I'm glad I didn't. I learned where I went wrong and now I know how not to do it again. Thank you! DeeKenn 11:39, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer to see both sides of the conversation in the same place. See your talk page for my response.

Well, how would I know if I got a message otherwise?

One way is to add the-page-in-question to your watchlist.

I need the notification at the top of the page. I do not visit people's talk pages unless summoned.

That's why I responded on your talk page rather than mine.

To address some of your points. You said:
However, the editing description says: "Removed external link. Video pulled from YouTube"; i.e. this "explanation" doesn't say anything about the video not being there, or why is should be removed. So all I'm left with is your subsequent reply: "I don't thinking linking to a video that is being reproduced without the appropriate rights is a good idea". So, again, I would ask: "Why?". (However, as the video is no longer there, this is a somewhat academic question, and your answer won't make any difference to the situation, so it would seem somewhat pointless to ask.)
The remark I left is more than enough, IMO.

If it were more than enough, then I wouldn't have felt the need to ask the question "Why?", would I.
So clearly, it wasn't more than enough.
Of course (in your opinion) you would think it's enough. If you didn't think it was enough, I expect that you would have said something different which you did think was enough.
(Note that when you try to communicate with someone, if they don't understand what you mean, then you haven't communicated.)

"Video pulled from YouTube" means that it has been removed (aka "pulled") from YouTube.

I see. ("Pulled" means something quite different in England and Australia.)

Why was it removed? I have no idea. If you want to contact the person who posted the video, or even YouTube, then feel free.
As to why posting links to copyrighted works is not a good idea, this should really be common sense and I'm sure is covered under some Wikipedia guideline.

Quoting one's sources frequently involves posting a link to a copyrighted work, so I don't see why this "should be common sense".

Furthermore, YouTube links are transient in nature. Posting a link to one is pointless as a resource as it is destined to change at some point.

I see. (By-the-way: I wasn't the one who posted the link. And "Engineer Bob" is pretty hot on these sort of things, so when he left it there, I assumed it was OK.)

I hope that clarifies some issues you seem to be having.

Yes thank you.

Please direct any further comments to my talk page so that I know you have responded.

All of my comments have been placed on your talk page; I haven't put any of my comments on my talk page (except one which said "See your talk page for my response.")

Francis Julius LeMoyne

[edit]

Hi, I've nominated an article you worked on, Francis Julius LeMoyne, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article at Template talk:Did you know#Articles created on August 2 where you can improve it if you see fit. Great job getting this article started! --Midnightdreary 13:56, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions! I can't wait to see it on the DYK page if it makes it. I find it a very interesting tidbit of American history.DeeKenn 15:37, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Updated DYK query On August 7, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Francis Julius LeMoyne, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Well done. we always need more historical stuff on DYK!Blnguyen (bananabucket) 09:02, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I think too many people were letting "good-faith" assumptions take precedence over quality of contributions, or they weren't paying attention. Anyway, I suspect he'll be be back as le909 or some other account soon. I'll keep an eye out. Ameriquedialectics 02:49, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Funny, I was thinking the same thing of you: three "fact" tags in a single sentence needs a bit of chilling. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 21:12, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello DeeKenn, I was trying to improve the wording on the sentence, and have changed it again now to be more technically accurate as well as reading ok. Thanks for pointing it out. Best wishes, Gouranga(UK) (talk) 10:34, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize that I originally pasted the "tarnation" disambiguation page. I meant to re-add the link for the documentary by the same name. It's fixed now. Thanks E_dog95' Hi ' 02:44, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to create an AfD for an article which was proposed once before. The pages were not automagically created. I goofed somehwere. DeeKenn (talk) 15:25, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You have to create the page. To do so, click on the red afd link in the article. Cut-and-paste the template in step 2 on the instructions shown in the afd box. (Note that you're creating the 2nd nomination). OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:36, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
