== re: Deletion of my Article ==
Merope,
My name is Damian Wild. I am an international recording artist. A PROFESSSIONAL recording artist.
And for some reason when I try to post VALID REAL information on Wikipedia, you people delete my information as not being "notable". Why is it that far lesser information is able to be put on Wikipewdia with no problem??? And more importantly, what have I done to be treated so disrespectfully? Visit www.myspace.com/damianwild if you want a sample of my considerable talent and then tell me I am not notable.
This is extremely insulting. I am not posting a frivolous page about someone unknown. I have fans all over the world. I am a KNOWN professional dance music recording artist. And I deserve a vaild explanation of why my information keeps getting deleted off of this site. Please explain.
Damian
:Hey Damian. See your talk page for a third-party answer. --[[User:Dweller|Dweller]] 10:42, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, a new editor ([[User:Uosoocn]]) has been tagging them all for deletion. To be honest, I decided that it was just as easy for me to delete them as remove the tag. I've already left a note on his page asking him to stop. --[[User:Robdurbar|Robdurbar]] 17:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

In the middle of a discussion on gathering sources for the Publicmind.com stub-article, you erased the article. According to fellow article collaborator, you cited a "csd a7 -web", but erased the article so quickly, there was no time to rebuff or make the necessary assertions.

Dear Merope,
I'd just like to make clear to you and to any other admins that my recent attempt at creating an article was sincere, and in no way akin to vandalism. I have the highest of respect for Wikipedia, I just wasn't aware of the policies regarding these types of articles. Of course I will abide by them. I hope that you can accept my apologies for my mistake in trying to create the article, and I hope that you'll accept the fact that my respect for Wikipedia is genuine.
All the best,
[[User:Loomis51|Loomis]] 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
== restore the article ==
Yes I'd appreciate it restored to my namespace. But I fail to see how I can get any more "credible" than by stating facts that I myself know are true (seeing as how I have been involved with the forum in question since the day it was created) and the fact that I had both the current and past administrators of the forum assisting me with the details. Will it make a difference if I actually say this at the end of my article?
== [[Volcano Physics]] ==

==Recent arrival==
I'm a recent arrival to the new pages patrol and was wondering if you could give me some advice. Is there any point in me putting 'nonsense' or 'db-empty' tabs on articles which have been created in the past five minutes or will an admin come along and do the job before a tab has even been put on? Only I notice that on alot of occasions no sooner have I clicked to edit the article to place a 'speedy delete' notice than it has already been deleted! Thanks--[[User:Edchilvers|Edchilvers]] 17:50, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

:Thanks! In the future, please tag the article with the original deletion criterion; {{tl|db-repost}} is for articles that have gone through a deletion process (like AfD).

Is it just my perception or has there been an extraordinarily large amount of vandalism and nonsense today? ---[[User:Theoldanarchist|Charles]] 18:36, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
:No, I think you're right. Usually I do something else besides New Page Patrol, but not today. I've had my userpage vandalized four or five times today, and there's just a constant stream of crap being created. It's not even a full moon! But I did get to delete an article that asked if I was sexy, so I'm in a fairly good mood about it. -- [[User:Merope|<b><font color="#006699">Merope</font></b>]] 18:40, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
::Yeah, I suppose there are ''much worse'' questions one could be asked. I was left a message sometime in the last 24 hours asking if I do anything else with my time other than look for vandalism on Wikipedia. As it happens, I do (I actually just finished a show this past weekend, for example), and I am spending less time on Wikipedia lately than, say, a month ago. Still, I am proud of the garbage I have deleted, and make no apology for the time I spend here. ---[[User:Theoldanarchist|Charles]] 18:47, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

==A plea from someone who was "just having fun"==
Hello, could you please tell what it was of mine that you deleted and why?
If it was the page 'Dominic Clementson'then I apologise for causing any offence but it was meant as harmless fun. It was not editing anyone else work and was actually all true. {{Unsigned|DuncanDisorderly}}
Thank-you for getting back to me. I'd just like to add that I wouldn't dream of using Wikipedia for 'taking the piss' out of my friends (what kind of friend would that make me?) The article was about me. I even listed my various noms de plume in the article so one could see I had written it. It's a strange place where you can't poke fun at yourself. However, I do understand your concerns about keeping Wikipedia of a high standard. If you check my other posts you will see that they are serious, well researched and inoffensive. {{Unsigned|DuncanDisorderly}}
Yes, I didn't realise that I had a user page. Apologies for that. I guess I should have read the guidelines more closely. Anyway, how does one become an administrator? {{Unsigned|DuncanDisorderly}}

Hi- I tried to provide an historical account of our company.

Bob Justin is a museum collected award winning and whats the term, registered artist?

I was intending to add some of this to the article as I went along getting a full description added, though maybe not the Johnson and Johnson bit - thats kind of personal IMO.

Please understand my confusion.
Thank you for your time!
