Speedy deletion of Australian International Arms

A tag has been placed on Australian International Arms, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

it fails to assert notability WP:CSD#A7 and is blatant advertising WP:CSD#G11. There are also no independent, third party refs cited

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NSH001 (talk) 12:20, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Australian International Arms

An article that you have been involved in editing, Australian International Arms, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Australian International Arms. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? NSH001 (talk) 14:09, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Kartano. If you want the Australian International Arms article to survive, you need to find reliable independent references that show it is a notable company. Forum websites are not considered reliable. My suggestion is to look through a Google search and find news / known gun magazines / other known sources that discuss AIA. I see there is currently one reference in the article. You'll probably need many more to survive the vote. Do it quickly, as the AfD may close at any time. Regards, --Lester 20:48, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A friendly reminder to check dates when replying to discussions

Thanks for your input on the Lee-Enfield talk page! Just a friendly reminder to check the dates on things you're replying to- some of the topics you are responding to are several years old, and have often (usually?) been resolved a long time ago, or weren't a big issue then and are completely irrelevant now. Please, if you could avoid resurrecting old discussion points unless there's something new to add factual information-wise, it would be greatly appreciated and make it easier to follow the discussion as well!

Thank you!

Thank you for reverting the vandalism done to my user page! You should know that the IP is a sock of User:Savagebladez, and will likely attack anyone that prevents him from vandalizing Wikipedia. Just a friendly heads up. Thanks again! Fezmar9 (talk) 16:47, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suck my dick

Kartano, you are engaged in an AfD where all is not well. Suck my dick is not an article per se, it is a redirect. If you want to get rid of it, you should go to Redirects for Discussion. (But you'd never get a consensus to delete it, since it's a simple matter of redirecting for alternate capitalization.) Regards, Drmies (talk) 05:25, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, you understand that I'm not telling you to, you know, suck it and all. Right? Cause I wouldn't. Drmies (talk) 05:38, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I Completely understand. As was said on your discussion page, having the above title does make THIS page stand out! Kartano (talk) 06:15, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. Hey, you saw, perhaps, that the AfD was closed speedily, with a note on where you could take this. I gotta tell you though, the chances are slim for the reasons outlined above. Personally, I think the title of the movie is in pretty poor taste in the first place. At least Eat Shit is not a film, though Eat shit also is a redirect... Happy editing, Drmies (talk) 06:18, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please assist

Thanks so much for reverting the vandalism on the World Aids Day article. This IP, though shared, has a long history of vandalism reaching back as far as December 2006. Can anything further be done? Please advise. Thx. 38.109.88.194 (talk) 18:19, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One possibility is to report that IP address to the Administrators. If they've had numerous warnings and keep coming back to vandalise the same page over and over, this is usually your best option. You can try going here: Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism Kartano (talk) 10:38, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

your recent warning to User talk:71.182.240.34

User:The Thing That Should Not Be specifically says on his vandalbox:

RC Patrollers: Please note that this is a place that I specifically ask for vandals to vandalize, instead of vandalizing my main userspace. I don't care if you revert anything here, but please don't warn them for vandalizing here. To those editing this page: Please keep this hidden comment on the page, so as to remind other editors to not remove this. Thanks.

You gave the user I listed in the title above a warning anyway. I hope you do not mind that I am removing it. Thank you for your time. smithers - talk - sign! 00:16, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Historical accuracy

What's going on? Various Indian place names have been changed in recent decades, so it's historically inaccurate to call what is now Pune that in a historical reference to a time when it was called Poona. Meher Baba is himself cited calling his birthplace by the old name, and my edit carefully acknowledged the new name. So, what was wrong with that edit, and why should I not revert the undo? PMLawrence (talk) 06:51, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies - I didn't see a description in the edit and as the edit was an IP recent change, I'd reverted it. Again, my apologies. Kartano (talk) 06:53, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I finally got around to putting it right. PMLawrence (talk) 15:19, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kartano,

My Edit

My edit was entirely constructive. The references to McCarthy's page are important as "Angels in America" discusses the lingering impact of the red scare on American Society and places the blame of the Rosenbergs deaths at the feet of the discussed party. I suggest you reinstate the edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.94.198.204 (talk) 11:40, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pssh

You can't say that my information wasn't correct. I would appreciate if you put my edited information back up on the site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.111.53.133 (talk) 04:31, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll agree that it wasn't exactly incorrect so much as it was more of non-encyclopaedic statement intended to vandalise a page. You can by all means add it back but you'll have to reword your sentiment a little. Kartano (talk) 05:47, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My user page

.17 Fireball image

I'm not sure, but I suspect the middle cartridge in your image is a ",17 Remington", not a ".17 Rem Fireball", do you know for sure? I was looking at 6mm BR as a reliable source. 58.7.222.137 (talk) 09:55, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

AIA and magazine capacity limits

Your information on the AIA section of the SMLE wikipedia page states that the maximum size magazine obtainable by law is 10 rounds. This is not correct in QLD. There is currently no limitation on magazine capacity for bolt action repeating rifles in QLD. There IS a restriction on importation (but not ownership, as that is controlled by states) imposed by the federal government, however it is not the capacity of the magazines used in AIAs that is the issue. It is that they (for the M10A) are functional in Category D firearms.

The AIA M10B series uses a magazine based on the M14, that is true, however it is missing the hole for the front magazine catch used in the M14, and thus is not usable in a Category D firearm. Because this front catch is not needed, it is possible to use M14 magazines in the AIA M10, with some minor modifications to the magazine which can be done with simple tools. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.161.135.165 (talk) 05:42, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your sandbox has 27 self-closed <div /> tags and 2 self-closed <span /> tags.
