Eva Haller

Hi there! Thanks for cleaning up some parts of Eva Haller. There is still an AfD discussion going on right now... it's been going on for over two weeks, but has only been re-listed once. From what I've seen, there's a sufficcient amount of votes to be able to keep it (two keeps and one weak delete). Would you be able to help with making the decision? If you can't make the decision, it would still be awesome if you could contribute in the discussion. Many thanks! United191 (talk) 21:01, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you! A gift from fellow Wikipedians.

2014 Peshawar cinema bombings

Hi. I saw you were mentioned at one of the AfD debates, and decided to ask you a favour. Can you recount the death toll in the above article? I put the body count as for both February 2 and February 11 respectively. Thanks. Another question: When is it appropriate to use templates such as {{Terrorism-stub}} or {{massacre-stub}}?--Mishae (talk) 20:57, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Adverse effects of fluoroquinolones nominated for deletion

Thanks for posting to the medicine list. I'm not real practiced at this, was wondering if you could post it to the pharmacology list too? Haven't figured out how to do that yet. Thanks, Formerly 98 (talk) 18:53, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your help! Formerly 98 (talk) 19:26, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of named passenger trains of India, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Junagarh (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
For your work on making sure AfDs are sorted in the correct deletion discussion categories, I thank you, Gene93k! starship.paint (talk | ctrb) 23:58, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
Two measures (one for you and one for a good friend) of potable quasi-barnstar, for your extraordinary devotion to the dreary task of deletion sorting, an underappreciated task that enables processes such as this. -- Hoary (talk) 03:33, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Wrong place listing for AfD visibility

Thank you for adding listings for AfD visibility. In the case of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DranDeh and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mani Petha Brath Nest today, you added it to Iran-related films. These are two Balochistani films. I wonder why you added to Iran when Balochistan is also a region on Pakistan. Maybe this should be added also? Just a heads up. Cheers. -- Alexf(talk) 14:56, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

I see. Maybe it will be a good idea as the OP and the director seem to hail from Pakistan. Thx. -- Alexf(talk) 15:23, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Input on deletion of Sexism in the family

Could you please give me your input on deleting Sexism in the family. the deletion discussion can be found here. Thank you, 155blue (talk) 17:35, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

I noticed a lack of any discussion as to the enabling legislation for the Robert E. Lee Memorial and added a lengthy quote discussing the same taken from a National Park Service paper. I tried to reference the link, which takes you to the PDF paper, but the link was disallowed. Here it is (in part):

url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CDwQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fparkplanning.nps.gov%2FshowFile.cfm%3FprojectID%3D14952%26MIMEType%3Dapplication%25252Fpdf%26filename%3DRehabilitation%2520of%2520Arlington%2520House%2520%2520EA_public%2520review%2520copy.pdf%26sfid%3D0&ei=vJssU6LXH8TCywHqrIGQBg&usg=AFQjCNFpiTreD53IeirBMyfBZ5ave8Xeaw&sig2=84LVwMYV73UUIuRfvgmbtA&bvm=bv.62922401,d.aWc

It is preceded by http://www.google.com/ and I understand the problem with the google search part but don't know how to link to the PDF any other way. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello, talk-page stalker here.
First stage: cut the junk that precedes the first occurrence of "http", resulting in:
http%3A%2F%2Fparkplanning.nps.gov%2FshowFile.cfm%3FprojectID%3D14952%26MIMEType%3Dapplication%25252Fpdf%26filename%3DRehabilitation%2520of%2520Arlington%2520House%2520%2520EA_public%2520review%2520copy.pdf%26sfid%3D0&ei=vJssU6LXH8TCywHqrIGQBg&usg=AFQjCNFpiTreD53IeirBMyfBZ5ave8Xeaw&sig2=84LVwMYV73UUIuRfvgmbtA&bvm=bv.62922401,d.aWc
Second stage: cut the junk after what looks like the end of a URL, resulting in:
http%3A%2F%2Fparkplanning.nps.gov%2FshowFile.cfm%3FprojectID%3D14952%26MIMEType%3Dapplication%25252Fpdf%26filename%3DRehabilitation%2520of%2520Arlington%2520House%2520%2520EA_public%2520review%2520copy.pdf
Third stage: consulting Percent-encoding, convert (other than "%20"=space), resulting in
http://parkplanning.nps.gov/showFile.cfm?projectID=14952&MIMEType=application%252Fpdf&filename=Rehabilitation%2520of%20Arlington%20House%20%20EA_public%20review%20copy.pdf
The result still looks garbled to me, but as of a couple of minutes ago, yes this link was working. -- Hoary (talk) 03:56, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Casual Male Retail Group Article

Hello Gene93k,

I was writing about the article Casual Male Retail Group article, as a representative of Destination XL (formerly Casual Male Retail Group); I'm wondering is there anyway you can update the title of the article? We have incorporated as Destination XL Group, Inc. as we have customers who are "googling" Destination XL--the Wiki Article appears with the Casual Male Retail Group name, part of our rebranding is to move away from the Casual Male Retail Group name and this is why I ask if the title of the article can be updated? I can also send an updated logo image if that is helpful?

I also noticed that there was a request for outside sources for the article and I have a few links that may be helpful:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/06/business/media/destination-xl-caters http://www.mrketplace.com/21802/retailer-of-the-year-casual-male-nails-it/ http://www.mrketplace.com/51374/dxl-the-over-sized-man-is-under-served

Thank you, in advance, for your help! Kristine — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krssy215 (talk • contribs) 14:29, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Speedy keep

Would it be possible to speedy keep UE Boom's AfD per WP:SK? The nominator is currently blocked for disruptive editing and his appeal has been denied. Otherwise it has been more than 7 days since the AfD was filed. Thank you. Dmatteng (talk) 11:18, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
