Creating articles in userspace

All you have to do is create a page at the following link:

User:LegalFiction/James Sears

This will place the article in your "userspace", and you can make a new article about it when it's ready. S. Dean Jameson 00:15, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

THANKS!!!!! Sorry about breaching etiquette! LegalFiction (talk) 00:16, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If I click "Save page" on that user page, will it do the same thing all over again? Should I only use "preview"? LegalFiction (talk) 00:19, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to simply work it up off-line (in Word or something), before placing it here. It really does look like an attack article right now. S. Dean Jameson 00:45, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Okay, I'll do that. I guess my mistake is that all the Wiki and computer language (brackets, tildas, and whatnot) is pretty overwhelming and I thought the best way to get started would be just to jump right in. I'll work it up offline mostly first. LegalFiction (talk) 00:50, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - The "wiki-fication" of it isn't the problem, as of now. The problem is that it reads as an attack on Sears. Per our policy on articles about living people, that is not allowed. S. Dean Jameson 00:53, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, no problem. Be bold is one of our mottos.Cheers, Dlohcierekim's sock (talk) 00:53, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Attack page moved to user space

Thanks for building Wikipedia. I'm afraid that we should not have this in user space either. Please review WP:BLP for articles about living people. Please read WP:BIO to learn more about notability requirements for articles about people. The article will need WP:Verifiable, reliable sources and need to be written in a neutral tone. I don't think the subject is going to meet notability requirements. It seems his only notability comes from the negative information. I will send the user page for discussion to see if consensus can be reached. Cheers, Dloh cierekim 00:30, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Starte thread at WP:AN/I

Hello. I've listed this for discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#BLP deleted speedy moved to user page. It will probably be the quickest way to get feed back on whether to let it grow on your user page or other options. Cheers, Dloh cierekim 00:42, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Page deleted

I've deleted the page pending its improvement, proper sourcing and indication of encyclopedicity. I will be happy to provide you the text to work with offline. FCYTravis (talk) 02:45, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Help

{{helpme}}

Okay, I'm putting up the page again that I tried (unsuccessfully) to create before. This is my first attempt at making a wiki page. I have tried to include the reasons for notability inside the article. And I have attempted to make the article sound as neutral as possible. I've followed the wiki pages for Chris Crocker and Tricia Walsh-Smith as examples. I hope that it's okay and I'm not violating any wiki protocols. I certainly never intended it to be an attack page, as my initial attempt must have seemed. I attempted to upload a related picture earlier, but I think that I don't know how to read the licensing stuff and it was taken down by other administrators. I would appreciate any assistance before this becomes a real page. LegalFiction (talk) 17:19, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I moved this from a subsection of your page to here. {{Helpme}} templates don't belong in subsections like you had this one. You can ask the above user for help since they deleted it. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 17:23, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. Sorry about that. LegalFiction (talk) 17:24, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi LegalFiction. Have you looked at the article wizard? It's a useful tool that gives a step-by-step guide to creating your articles. Here are some policies that might be of interest (...well, of necessity anyway. :)).

Take a look through those links. For safety's sake, you might want to create your article in a subpage of your userpage, for example, at User:LegalFiction/Articlename (replacing ArticleName with your title). Let me know if this proves a help to you. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 17:31, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}}

I did try to use all the wiki guides to make sure everything was okay. I worked it up offline and then posted it to my userspace here User:LegalFiction/James Sears. I just wanted to see if everything looks fine before moving it to wiki space? Can anyone okay me? I don't want to get swatted again. LegalFiction (talk) 17:34, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PeterSymonds can help you remove the negativity. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 17:48, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

James Sears

I'm sorry, I still see no way in which he meets WP:BIO. There is nothing to offset the serious negative WP:BLP content. I will seek other opnions. You should blank the page for now. The earlier version is still accessible in the edit history. Sorry, I coud not be more helpful. Cheers, Dloh cierekim 19:47, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like you've got positives from PeterSymonds and Spellcast. I asked User:T-rex for an opinion. If he says OK, it should be OK. Cheers, Dloh cierekim 20:55, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of James N. Sears

Please do not make personal attacks. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

WP:AIV

Please note that very rarely are vandals blocked without their having previously been warned about the consequences of their behaviour. I have removed your report to WP:AIV and warned the IP concerned. For more guidance please read this page. _GB^T/C 16:47, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Contributions to Seduction Community Pages

LegalFiction, you have been doing some great work on seduction community-related pages. Your edits appear informative and unbiased, and I agree with them for the most part. I only edit sporadically nowadays, but if you need my input on any seduction community articles, or AFDs, feel free to drop me a line, as I have been working on these articles off-and-on for a while. --SecondSight (talk) 06:29, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Paula Yates

In your recent edits to Paula Yates you amended the correct British English spellings of "travelled" and "jewellry" to the American versions. This is the Nth time these words have been changed by various editors. The spellings have been changed back, please desist from altering correct spellings in British wikipedia articles. Thank you for your cooperation 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 09:30, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Analeigh Tipton notability

Are you actually challenging the validity of the article? Because you seem to be saying, that since Analeigh didn't come in first or second . someone else is gong to challenge it. If you don't actually think, that the article doesn't meet the criteria of notability, you shouldn't have tagged it and should remove the tag. And whether someone was in the top 2 or not isn't a criteria for notability. NIk Pace came in second but doesn't have a page because she didn't do much after top model. if anything McKey and Samantha are less notable than Analeigh. So unless you feel the Artlcle doesn't measure-Misty Willows (talk) 06:58, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
