Vaid
[edit]Hi I was just worried that the problem edits were still viewable on the talk page, I am not saying that it is Vaid but if it were then I thought that might be a problem. I leave it in your capable hands :¬) Chaosdruid (talk) 07:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Don't worry. No problem :) Take care. Wifione ....... Leave a message 07:43, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]Hi Wifione! I'm not sending out thankspam to everyone, but I would like to personally thank you for all your support on my RfA and for the kind words. I'm looking forward to working with you as a fellow admin. Regards, --Kudpung (talk) 12:58, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- It'll be a personal privilege to work with you. My best wishes for your admin term. Call me up anytime for any assistance. Wifione ....... Leave a message 13:18, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for your support!
[edit]Hi Wifione, It looks like this is your second day in a row receiving one of these. I couldn't not thank you for your contributions to my RfA. You made a solid argument in support of my adminship that was quoted by other supporters and you also countered arguments in the "Oppose" section. Thank you for putting the time into ensuring that I would become an administrator. Happy editing, Neelix (talk) 22:39, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- That's super. You made it! Brilliant. Do well and write back to me for any assistance. Wifione ....... Leave a message 13:09, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Deletion of Peter Orullian
[edit]Just curious why it was still deleted when there was more information added for sources that are verifyible? No one came in after all the edits I made to see what was changed. Since you deleted it what is the next step to contest the deletion?--Mycoltbug (talk) 14:20, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
- Hi there. The article was deleted as there was clear consensus to delete in the AfD. The next step: Either go for a deletion review or, in case you're confident that the article will pass our notability benchmark, recreate it in your own user space and request the input of any editor/administrator before moving it to the main article space. In case you so wish, I can move the article contents (which I deleted) to your user space. Do write back for any kind of assistance. Kind regards. Wifione .......

Deletion review for Peter Orullian
[edit]An editor has asked for a deletion review of Peter Orullian. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Mycoltbug (talk) 14:49, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
- Sure. Noted. Replied on the relevant page. Wifione ....... Leave a message 18:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Rollback: I can't use Twinkle since I only have internet explorer
[edit]RE[1], I cannot use Twinkle since I only have internet explorer and it says it does not work with internet explorer. I am only now responding to you because I had not seen clear repeating vandalism until recently. Thanks. PPdd (talk) 22:37, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
(talk page stalker)Is there any reason why you can't download and use either Safari (web browser) or Firefox? They are both free and have versions for PC and Mac. It's always possible to have several web browsers on one machine. --Kudpung (talk) 02:57, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- I had a big problem last time I downloaded another browser some time ago (maybe my antivirus software interacted or I downloaded a virus?), so now I am afraid to download things (especially since my antivirus software is outdated since the subscription expired. PPdd (talk) 03:30, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- If you download browsers such as F/Fox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/) and Safari (http://www.apple.com/safari/) from their original, official sites, there should be absolutely no problem of the files being corrupted. --Kudpung (talk) 04:15, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. Will do. PPdd (talk) 04:54, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Mitchell Heisman - Suicide Note
[edit]I wonder if it is appropriate to reconsider the deletion of the page on Mitchell Heisman. His story, and his lengthy treatise on nihilism, have gone viral in the months since his suicide, generating many discussions about meaning and purpose. Different people make their impact on the world in different ways. Yes, a particularly spectacular suicide is probably not worthy of a Wikipedia entry. However, generating a significant philosophical debate - and one that is singularly relevant to many in the current generation of young people - may be something worth talking about.
I am new to Wikipedia (although not new as a reader), so I am not familiar with all of the written and unwritten rules and guidelines. I do know that when I want to know more about a serious subject of interest, the first place I look is Wikipedia, and I expect that the subject will be dealt with there in some way. I was surprised that this treatise and event were not included.
I do understand that, shortly after the suicide, there was a good rationale for deleting an article that dealt with essentially a news story. This is no longer a news story, and through internet tools like StumbleUpon the underlying discussion Mitchell Heisman sought to generate is happening.
Therefore, I ask the question. Has the context of this suicide and treatise changed sufficiently that this individual now warrants a Wikipedia article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ataraxia88 (talk • contribs) 17:54, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- I too wonder if there is some forum by which a reconsideration of the deletion of that page could be discussed. Or rather, if a page could be created for the body of work Mitchell produced leading up to his suicide. After reading only a few hundred pages so far I imagine the work itself standing the rigors of scrutiny as a piece of modern philosophy. It is my opinion his work is on the same level of the oft quoted and notoriously famous historical nihilist Nietzsche himself and thus deserves some sort of space for research and discovery. I was very disappointed when searching for "suicide note" did not yield any sort of lead to Mitchell's work. Comercory (talk) 08:13, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

I believe you should keep the Mitchell Heisman page. Wikipedia has become a gathering of the worlds knowledge and to leave anything that out that could provide even the slightest knowledge would be unsound. I may be missing something here but I don't see how it could possibly hurt anything to keep it up.
Thanks,
