Nice to meet another one. Actually, I'm from Aurora, but still. Dropal 22:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

I get very confused about things sometimes. Dropal 02:08, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
You probably could have added a Speedy deletion template here. The article was still deleted, but a CSD could have been faster. If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 04:13, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up on repost rules, didn't relise they had changed--Oliver202 21:23, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Your WP:AIV report on JFBurton
Hi Fan-1967, regarding your report on User:JFBurton, that case was a little too complicated for WP:AIV, which is most appropriate for cases of simple vandalism. I moved your report to here. Cheers, Deathphoenix ʕ 16:24, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Fan-1967 could you help my articles? --4vo 16:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC) ASAP
from Pernambuco
it is Pernambuco here, thank you for defending me and for restoration of my User Page. I think that Paul is mad at me because I am the person who proposed that an article with the name Cokelogic should be deleted, and that was a page which Paul made, but I am sorry, I have explained the reasons, and I am just defending wikipedia's rules, that is all. I have never heard of Cokelogic before and I have never heard of Paul either, so this is nothing personal, I just want to see the standards to be upheld correctly in Wikipedia, nothing else. That is my only motivation and why I proposed the page for deletion. Pernambuco 20:23, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Paul Dempsey foo
Just a quip here, I think he's doing this simply for the sake of being childish. Makes me curious though - is there anything in Wikipedia policy that would not be a ban, but equally effective at letting him release whatever anguish he has over the now-salted Cokelogic article, without harming or disrupting Wikipedia? --Dennisthe2 10:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, this is not unusual behavior. An editor signs up in Wikipedia to create one article only, to promote something personally important to them. When it's deleted, they get angry and lash out. The real question is whether the user has any actual interest in contributing to Wikipedia at all, aside from their pet project. He was given a 24-hour block, which should send a firm message. We'll just wait and see if he comes back at all, and what his behavior is then. Fan-1967 13:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Response to Speedy Deletion Tag on Neil Rackham Article
Hi,
I'm writing in response to your speedy deletion tag of the Neil Rackham article. Based on other articles that exist on Wikipedia, I believe that a Neil Rackham article is appropriate. If the contents of the article need to be adjusted, that is fine, and I welcome your feedback and guidance. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JLE1945 (talk • contribs) 16:35, 5 January 2007 (UTC).

Pokemon page
Oh ok sorry. I did not realise this. Claudz88
Please explain
I don't know how you tagged this one, or what you were trying to do. It looks like a copy/paste of part of an AFD notice, but there's no AFD discussion article. Since this is neither a valid AFD nomination nor a valid Speedy deletion tag, the article will not be deleted under any circumstances. Fan-1967 20:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
I hang my head in shame...used the wrong template. Sorry about that Shoessss 20:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the warm welcome to Wikipedia, and the references. I will try again to create a stub for firsthand learning making use of your suggestions.dth 20:49, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Regarding Tilly's Article
We attempted to submit an article about the Tilly's clothing company. We were unaware of the rules and guidelines for submitting information to Wikipedia. Therefore, our initial submission was a general description of Tilly's that was, naturally, very sales-oriented. After learning that our submission was deleted, we went back and re-submitted a description. The new submission included a description of the company with information about what kind of company it is, when and where it started, where it can be found, information about how the company has evolved, a description of how one would categorize the company, the culture to which it relates, and the type of products--without being too specific--carried by the company. In order to make sure the rules and guidelines weren't violated again, we followed Pacsun's company description as a general template--without copying or plagiarizing--since Pacsun is a similar company. We felt that our final submission was a clear description of Tilly's and wasn't any more sales-oriented than the article about Pacsun, which can be found on Wikipedia and includes brands that they carry with internal links and external links to their company Web site and related industry Web sites and Wikipedia articles.
If we have still managed to violate the rules and guidelines for submitting information to Wikipedia, please advise as to how we should proceed and what changes are necessary to ensure an unbiased, non-sales-oriented, encyclopedic entry. Thank you. (Syllit123 21:27, 5 January 2007 (UTC))
RE: Problems with your article

Could I ask you to look a page for its history of edits
Hello, two days ago I saw this page being created Rosemary rogers. I would like an objective opinion besides mine. Ronbo76 12:46, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
- I noticed this one while on vandal patrol. Sad thing, she has some books indeed published. This brings home the point you made that if someone was truly notable, they would not be obsessed with self-publication and Sharface217's observation that another editor would nominate them. I did not want to be the nominator as another user in a crosspost indicated that he thinks I am out to get everyone. I "am just out" to get those who self-publish! Thanks for your confirmation and I respect what you said about the nominator. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ronbo76 (talk • contribs) 21:24, 6 January 2007 (UTC).
- I revisited this page as its creator did a major edit to bring it down to what now may qualify as a writer stub. Please see its talkpage for my discussion. I believe she may not have known about WP-Bio and this may have been an innocent one which is also part of the reason I asked you to review prior. I did a minor page edit to indicate its stub bio status. What do you think? Ronbo76 13:03, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

What is the correct Procedure for creating a page? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cyberhostpro (talk • contribs) 00:16, 8 January 2007 (UTC).

Cyssero
I've been helping out on the "new pages" recently and noticed that a user that you had had your eye on in the past (JFizzle91) has created a page with dubious validity in the encyclopedia, "Cyssero."
I tagged this one initially with the "spam" tag for speedy deletion, but he has removed it three times so far. I checked out his talk page and saw that you had already warned him about his destructive editing.
Now, I'm not too familiar with the procedure for getting someone blocked, but this guy seems like a good candidate, and I have an idea that you are more knowledgeable in that subject, so I am referring both this user and his page as candidates for you.
Thanks for your time. Alekjds 03:04, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Is there any way to contest the erasing? The constitution of Clearfield High has recently been modified to change the VP Assembly Student Body Position to VP Amabit vir ipse. Which is latin for "Love of Arts" to encompass a broader responsibility. Sorry for the "booger" I was frusterated with my denied attempts to change it.

I'm very new to editing pages on wikipedia and would like to see content that isn't on this certain page, on there. It is basic at the moment as I have only just started editing it but will remove it and carry on with the editing using another text based program...I hope this is ok?
