Speedy Deletion of Dj Nebula page

Why did you delete my page I started to create? I have been a fixture of dance music here in the US for well over 15 years. You can check my artist profile here:

http://www.myspace.com/djnebula

I do not understand why this qualifies for speedy deletion. I am the guy who brought House Music to Salt Lake City. Please get back to me on why you have done this. Or who I need to speak to get my page activated so I can upload pics, flyers and reviews of my music.

Accountcreator

hello, NawlinWiki. RyanLupin just approved me on the WP:ACC tool, but I need an admin to give me the flag. Would you like to do the honors? Shapiros10 ^{contact me}_{My work} 23:43, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Okay. If you're still following, first you need to be approved by another Account creator (I already was). Then, if the person who approved you isn't a sysop, you need to ask an en.wiki sysop to go into Special:userrights and check off the Accountcreator flag. Sorry if I'm bothering you. Shapiros10 ^{contact me}_{My work} 12:19, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

• Nawlin it's the same as granting rollback, but (as far as I know), we're supposed to grant it based on need; i.e., the user has shown that he 1) knows how to create accounts appropriately within policy and 2) is hitting the account creation throttle on a regular basis. But, as with rollback, it's up to an admins individual discretion most of the time. In a nutshell: you only need the acc flag if you are regularly creating more than 6 accounts a day.

California

On July 11 you changed the protection status of California but failed to update the image lock. Your edit summary reads: (Changed protection level for "California": allowing editing, moveprotection [move=sysop])

I changed {{pp-semi-vandalism|expiry=July 27, 2008|small=yes}} to {{pp-move|small=yes}} to reflect the change you made. Please take some time to review your other edits and correct any similar mistakes. Thank you. Dbiel ^(Talk) 21:25, 13 July 2008 (UTC)reposted Dbiel ^(Talk) 01:56, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Semiprotecting Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Dear NawlinWiki:

I'm writing to ask you to restore semiprotection to the Mozart article. Just as things were before the semiprotection was imposed 10 months ago, the anons are now contributing a heavy flow of vandalism and ill-informed edits, which is a considerable burden to monitor and trim back. If you restore semiprotection, then the knowledgeable editors could spend their Wiki-time on constructive improvements instead.

Hi NawlinWiki

Sorry for the delay in my work (I was on Vacation), Can you take a look at my user page D453g/Tri North Lighting, Inc. for me? I have started working on the refrences and I want to make sure that I am doing them right. It was a little confusing reading through everything last night about the refrences and I wanted to see what you think. By the way, I did move it from my user space since the page meets the requirements as far as I can tell. If you need more please let me know. I will still be adding more information on this company, then I would like to start writing about Nexxus Lighting which is a larger public company as well.

Lal Senaratne

Hi, as much as you might think Lal Senaratne is fictional, he happens to be a real person. I don't know if it's because you only care about what happens in your country, and what you have heard of, or if its that you think he is a 'friend' of mine, but he isn't. And he deserves a page. I don't understand why you would delete the page without consideration that there is a great man living in New Zealand (that's right, there are stars out of america) that should be known more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JORCNC (talk • contribs) 13:03, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Protecting templates

Hi NawlinWiki. I noticed that you protected some templates I am watching. When you protect a template you should move (cut and paste) its documentation, categories and interwiki links to a /doc subpage so that non-admins still can update those things. You should also add the {{pp-template}} to the template. Thus, you should add something like this code to any template you protect:

<noinclude>

{{pp-template|small=yes}}
{{Documentation}}
<!-- Add categories and interwikis to the /doc subpage, not here! -->
</noinclude>

If you are not familiar with this procedure then you can take a look at what I did with {{Picture of the day}} and {{Picture of the day/doc}} and read up on template documentation at Wikipedia:Template documentation.

Charlie the unicorn

Hello NawlinWiki. I'd like to start a Charlie The Unicorn page and noticed that you had recently deleted a stub. In recent international travels, I have been quite surprised to find many people from many different countries who instantly recognize references from Charlie the unicorn. I believe that Charlie illustrates how the Internet provides a cultural form for universally appealing art. Charlie is obviously not what one might call high-brow art, but somehow these silly little cartoons capture common feelings and experiences, ones that people from all over the world identify with. I would like to provide a common form for capturing the background, details (for example, the translation of the Z episode) and comparative analysis of the cartoons. As with popular movies and television shows, Charlie reflects who we are as a global culture and deserves a place on wikipedia. Kowboyz1003 (talk) 20:09, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Erroneous article deletion

The article Disc coupling was marked as "blatant advertising" and deleted by you. This is erroneous, because the term "disc coupling" is generic non-trademarked name of a (common) mechanical part. Furthermore, nowhere in the article was any reference made to a company or their products. If the reference did so, that should be removed, not the entire article. Note that I'm not the original writer, so I have no vested interest in it. -- P199 (talk) 20:48, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

• If you repost it, I will edit to make it generic. -- P199 (talk) 20:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Nobility Publishing

Can you please explain why Nobility Publishing was deleted speedily. I refreshed to take references from the body of the article and add them to the end only to notice it had been deleted within 30 seconds. While we are a small press, we are a legitimate publishing company. Our article did nothing different from the articles of larger publishing houses on Wikipedia such as Harper Collins, Simon & Schuster, Aladdin Paperbacks, etc.

The only difference I see is that they have been around longer and thus have more verifiable articles already in print. That does not mean we do not have articles in the works, people are not searching for us, or we do not belong on this site and others. This article was meant to be purely informational about a small press.

Can you please explain its deltion? Is it because we put in a section for submission guidelines?

NobilityPublishing (talk) 00:15, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

According to the logs, nobility publishing was deleted under the speedy deletion criterion A7: "An article about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant.". -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 07:47, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

YOUR VIOLATION OF WIKIPEDIA'S RULES IN YOUR AD-HOMINUM, DRIVE-BY ATTACK ON AN ARTICLE WHOSE REFERENCES IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO HAVE READ!!

Wikipedia Administrators Summarily Deleted My Article "Blaspheming Against The Holy Spirit" Without Warning Or Reasons And Without Having Reviewed My Sources Thusly Summarily Denying Me The Ability To Edit The Article Per Wikipedia's Own Policy

Writer's response to all who have continually summarily deleted the article blasphemy against the Holy Spirit without warning or reasons only unsupported insinuations and ad-homonym attacks. 1. C.Fred was the one that suggested that I upload the article to my user page first so you could help me edit it. That's not what you did though. You lied to me. 2. C.Fred and NawlinWiki how is it that you expect me to believe that the topic is not weighty enough for Wikipedia, and that unlike many of the imperfect, some ridiculous Wikipedia articles I've read that are horribly written, that I, unlike them have to post a perfect draft on the fist occasion. Answer this question, "Why does Wikipedia have a policy on editing? 3. How is it that you cite a lack of sources as a reason for deleting my entire article when I provided you with specific, independent, 3rd party, well credentialed sources. If you disagree I'll insist that you delete every single Wikipedia page without references that I've discovered to exist. Coincidentally, all I have to do is reference the poorly written, unreferenced Wikipedia page entitled, "Eternal Sin" to identify one of many pages on Wikipedia that have no references whatsoever. 4. By the way the conclusions of the "Eternal Sin" article are incorrect. None of the things stated as "thought to be" or "speculated to be" the unforgivable sin of blaspheming against the Holy Spirit are it. That's why this article, along with every other article on the topic that I have seen ever posted on your website has to suggest that the unforgivable sin is thought to be five different things when it's not and I can and will prove it. 5. C.Fred, you clearly didn't have enough time to read the books I cited as references overnight since you last communicated to me on my user page suggesting he help me with my article. 6. The topic of "Blasphemy Against The Holy Spirit" is a credible topic comparable to any other topic you have on this website whose explanation and consequences are material rather than that of a good bit of the content on this site. There is no way for you to dispute the legitimacy of the content on the site. Is the topic to whimsical for you? Is it you, the same administrators coincidently that choose to violate your own rules repetitively and without evidence, that you claim there is much of that........, what? You can't include it? That's odd. Why not? 7. Regarding your repetitive summary deletions of my article per Wikipedia's own policy guidelines: Wikipedia's deletion policy/Alternatives To Deletion Page 2 of 8 states that, "If the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion." "Disputes over page content are not dealt with by deleting the page." Wikipedia Deletion Policy Page 3 of 8. You, administrators violated your own rules. "My article meets none of the "Reasons For Deletion" since 8. This page was merely posted on my user page where it was to remain until edited into conformity with Wikipedia policy but Wikipedia's administrators can't follow their own rules and perform as they committed to performing and you want me to accept both of your ridiculous reasons for deletion of the article which haven't-not for the last 8 times-you have refused to respond to my requests for help editing the article which you simply responded to by deleting the article without ever contacting me. 9. Next, referencing "What Wikipedia Is Not" page 9 of 11: "Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy" which advises, "Follow the spirit, not the letter, of any rules, policies and guidelines if you feel they conflict. If the rules prevent you from improving the encyclopedia, you should ignore them". Do I need to interpret this to either or both of you? Do you not get what I said about the fact that unlike all other articles on the unforgivable sin, the unpardonable sin, the blasphemy against the holy spirit, and the eternal sin, each of which focuses of proposing what blasphemy against the holy spirit is because THEY DON'T KNOW. Do you not understand the conclusions that can be drawn by the facts of my article that can easily be separated from the 1st person interrogatory between God and I that took place that happened to appear in the article before it has been edited. What does editing mean? Do either of you know? 10. In fact it's not even the Wikipedia Rules that are holding me up it's the same handful of administrators who act with malice and bias who have yet to evidence a problem with the article that can't be fixed. The only important thing is that the explanation is solitary because it's not a theory and it is evidenced. Where is the evidence that it's not evidenced! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Llooke11 (talk • contribs) 21:37, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

What's going on here? Many/most of the pages you've been semi-protecting have little or no edits by IPs, let along vandalism that warrants protection. - auburnpilot talk 04:14, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Makes sense. Looking at all the histories with popups, I didn't even notice there were deleted edits. Thanks, - auburnpilot talk 04:19, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't pretend to know why you're moving [pagename] to [pagename]/d and back, but you should uncheck "Update any redirects that point to the original title" so User:Redirect fixer (actually part of the job queue) doesn't make useless edits. --NE2 05:41, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Steamboats of the Mississippi River

Hi there, I've been talking with a brand new wikipedian, User:Sfsorrow2, who has begun some very valuable steamboat related articles. You probably weren't aware that a small group of us have been working on these for some time, as an example Steamboats of the Columbia River, Steamboats of the Skeena River. Anyway, sfs began Steamboats of the Mississippi River and you redirected it to Steamboats. See my talk page here[4] Then he began Steamboats of the Mississippi, which would be better under the other title. So, if you get a chance, could you possibly fix the redirect so he can title it properly again? The article is a work in progress, of course, but will be a valuable addition. Thanks a lot.CindyBo^talk 07:21, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

User talk:BambooBanga

User is asking for a second chance, claiming prior good faith edit history and promising not to vandalize again. Thoughts? –xeno (talk) 20:03, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I'd be open to giving them a second chance and keeping them on a tight leash. GlassCobra 20:07, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Redirects and /d

Hey there. When you recently purged the history of Beijing, you accidentally left the new "fix double redirects" checkbox checked, which caused User:Redirect fixer to "fix" all redirects that used to point to Beijing and point them to Beijing/d. Just a heads-up. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 05:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Deletion of Fetterati

Hello. You deleted this article on grounds of non-notability. As far as I remember, there were two good references confirming notability. How can I recover the article, and for future reference can I do anything to clarify the notability further? Thanks.--Whipmaster (talk) 13:10, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Deletion of vandalism edits

I've just noticed that you're deleting a lot of pages (or revisions, rather) of page move and other kinds of vandalism. I'm not sure what exactly the point of that is, but (as has been pointed out above multiple times) please make sure that you don't have "Update any redirects that point to the original title" checked when you move the articles to /d. It would also be nice of you to rollback the edits the Redirect fixer has done so far as a result of those moves. Additionally, why do you semi-protect some of the articles? Jack and the Beanstalk hasn't been a big target for anon-vandalism as far as I can see, for example. --Conti|✉ 15:42, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Alright, that makes sense. You might want to set an expiry date for the semi-protections, tho. Heh, seems you have found a bug that needs fixing, then. Is there a bug report for that one yet? Anyhow, thanks for fixing the redirects again. :) --Conti|✉ 16:39, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Sonic: The Fated Hour

First off, that was quick!

Second, I would also like to request that the just-deleted article be salted, as this has been now the fourth time this article has been created and deleted, all by the same user. This will only be created again if not salted. Thank you. MuZemike (talk) 22:17, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

deletion of scythes of the emperor

Hi you deleted this page for a blatant infringement on copywriter, however you must not have read the comment I left on the talk page. I was the original author of the http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Scythes_of_the_Emperor article (including all the pictures), therefore I had by default all the permission I required to post it to wikipedia. I did so because wikipedia is on of the best known and most used websites around and I felt the article would get more attention here.

Any chance you could put it back?

Theodore Kaczynski

You protected the Unabomber article because of the Kevin Clymo reference? Why would that trigger page protection? Clymo was his lawyer at the time your site reported Kaczynski's attempted suicide, there are many sites on the Web that confirm Clymo's representation. That wasn't vandalism in any sense. Was it because of the timing of Clymo's death? He also represented an investor in the ELIC bankruptcy.

An odd action, no vandalism seen except perhaps by the deletion of the Clymo reference.--76.212.145.186 (talk) 00:31, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

OK, thanks for the answer. I'm not a sockpuppet of Grawp or anything. But I think the Clymo reference is important, someone should reinsert it when the page protection expires.

I have no idea what country you're from, but the ELIC seizure caused a lot of trouble in the US. France, too, as many Altus officers were imprisoned. Rightfully or wrong, you have to track down many alleys to find out. Clymo was a peripheral, and his inclusion in this highly-publicized American criminal case is important to anyone doing any research. The editor who deleted it made a comment about its importance (or lack of) on the History page.--76.212.145.186 (talk) 01:49, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Hounarable hubert gibbs

is not a implausible typo, because its just the dude's honorific. Its probably speedable as an R1 (probably A7, as well) because the page it redirects to should be deleted as a g12. Sorry if all the letters and numbers are confusing. :-) --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 03:30, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Why was the article deleted? (Don't say inmportance wasnt clear) The association have ~1300 members (biggest of this type in Germany), has a really big online-community and publishes doujinshis (well, didnt noticed that together with publisher Egmont Manga & Anime) and has an article in de:WP (with is much harder then here, according to my impression of en). If I'm not right here for complaintment, then please show me whereto I should go. Greetings --Don-kun (talk) 15:25, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion: The Vigilante Band

Hi. The article was submitted as general interest is high for this group. The band has 33-yrs history and is fairly well known.

You will notice another "Vigilante (band)" also, not associated, which exists in Wikipedia. Why only them? We have many inquiries of interest, and all that is found is the wrong "Vigilante (band)" who are of no greater or lesser relevance.

Your deletion was hasty and seems arbitrary. Please reconsider? Thanks.

Speedy Deletion: The Vigilante Band (2)

Thanks kindly for the reply.

There was no purposeful intention to promote/advertise. Sorry. Fact was presented in casual syntax. That can be, and should be I suppose, edited.

wrt is the band "Notable"...? The band matches that criteria as it has broadcast a number of times in the past, KUNM, Albuquerque. That will be added to the article.

Today's entry article was intended as a start to be added upon.

Speedy Deletion of Family Literacy Day

Hello I am new at this so I'll definitely read through all the criteria. In the meantime I think your feedback would probably help me understand how this should be worded.

Family Literacy Day is an annual day in Canada. It was proclaimed by our federal government by a parliamentary order and more than 50 jurisdictions have proclaimed it.

Last year more than 275,000 Canadian commemorated the day, so it is a real initiative and does a lot of good to help families that grapple with low literacy skills. In Canada approximately, 40 per cent have low levels of literacy so they cannot de-code complex sentences and ideas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abc canada (talk • contribs) 20:06, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

City template

You recently added pp-template to the city template. Putting it outside the noinclude adds a line break that screws up formatting all over Wikipedia. On top of that, you protected the page, so I can't just fix it. It is really a good idea to protect pages that have zero history of vandalism, just because they might be vandalized someday? Foobaz·o< 20:42, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Template protections

When protecting templates, please do not forget to surround the lock icons with <noinclude> tags as you did with Template:Party shading/Independent. You've been causing formatting troubles on many pages by having them erroneously display lock icons or malformed template code. --Millbrooky (talk) 21:07, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Eclipse screen saver deleted

I don't see how a simple description of this program is "Blatant advertising" for a 13 year old piece software. Perhaps a message first would have been more constructive than simply deleting the page. --Micky750k (talk) 13:59, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
