Hello, were you able to provide reasoning of the deletion of CyberFM? I contested on it's talk page and left for an errand, only to find it had been blatantly erased. MFTU (talk) 01:03, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Hay, Thanks for doing that for me. Ok this all started when I reverted this edit and then they got mad at me and sent me this Seen here and then they also sent User talk:Mentifisto this comment Seen Here then Mentifisto Block them. Look at there contributions on 76.8.160.7 Here they even ask for a unblock. Decline Seen Here They got pist off and you know the rest of the story. Thank you for protecting my talk page. Can you send me a message back on my talk page so I know you read this.--Michael (Talk) 06:41, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
He has been reported for messing with the page. He should be blocked soon and then I will edit it back. Correctionalfacilities33 (talk) 20:02, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Ok, I have content that I have added. I followed all the rules, did all the text, and then this guy comes along and DELETES IT??? Why does he have any right to go and delete other content that deserves a place there? It just doesn't make sence. Correctionalfacilities33 (talk) 20:04, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Are no fan site links of a particular artist allowed on Wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasonsgothgirls (talk • contribs) 00:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Nakon, i got very mad. I know this seems weird broadcasting it to the world, so you may delete this. But i got very ticked off. But u r right. Do report me if needed. No reply, please--just delete this after you read.--Betax (talk) 02:03, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello,
Just thought I would say that I created the page for Shin Fujiyama because I was contacted by CNN. They officially accepted my nomination of him as a CNN Hero and he/his nonprofit will appear on CNN in July. The page for his non-profit that he co-founded is here: Students Helping Honduras. It's not a big deal that it was deleted, but before you make that permanent I would love any tips that could help me make that article better/acceptable for inclusion since I am new to Wikipedia!
Thank you,
Bobby
How does the new take on the article look??UMWguy123 (talk) 03:28, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Yes, that's how it's meant to be done—hidden from the old log and re-added to the current one. –Juliancolton | Talk 03:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Im not sure if this is where I should be doing this but what is it you mean by "non-sense" and just so you know (because I know it is hard to tell tones on the internet) I'm not being a smart-alec at all.
I am going to rewrite it. In its current state the article is woeful, with numerous factual inaccuracies and general linguistical problems.
Listing the surnames including the forced serbian truncations is incredibly offensive. Additionally, the sources the original writer had on the page were from questionable locations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.199.153.127 (talk) 03:57, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
The information that was removed was erroneous, or of questionable authenticity. This is not a vandalization attempt, but the article as it stands is offensive, and needs to be rewritten entirely.
Again not trying to be contradictory or argumentative but the information is authentic (I am a close friend of Rick, the creator, in real life). Also I'm just wondering how my article could have been considered offensive?
Ah thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arrowlauncher (talk • contribs) 04:09, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
I think you and your friend rick need to sit down and have a conversation. I am not saying that the article in its entirety is erroneous, but there are substantial errors that I would be glad to discuss with rick. Listing the surnames with serbian truncations is highly offensive. Additionally, as it stands the article is in such poor shape, cut from different locations and pasted in. I am from that clan, and I have documented sources for information, as well as my own knowledge.
I think it merits a rewrite, or at least removing the article in its entirety, as there is another kelmend document here on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Antishkja (talk • contribs) 04:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Abuse filter rules apply short circuiting from front to back (i.e. in "A & B", "B" is evaluated only if "A" is true), so inexpensive criteria should be placed at the front of the rule to limit the evaluation of more expensive criteria. Dragons flight (talk) 19:34, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

I seem to have put the tag on the talk page by mistake.
This the page that was to be deleted:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:First_Dog_of_the_US.jpg
And this was the source that is commercially protected:
http://www.firstdogbowl.com/web/img/logo.jpg
And this is that same image on its webpage (near the bottom):

Hi, Nakon.
Since there was no consensus in this debate, please reconsider your close, which should have been "no consensus".—S Marshall Talk/Cont 17:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
An article I recently tried to post about a company (not my own company) was rejecred by you. Apparently you felt the article was too promotional. How do you differentiate between a promotional page and an information page? For example, Loopt has an article on Wikipedia. While it's very information-rich, it undoubtedly provides a significant marketing benefit to the company. Why was it allowed?
The upcoming Star Trek movie also has a Wikipedia page. Once again, this is an information page, but it is also a valuable marketing vehicle for the movie's producers.
The page I tried to post (about a company called Webgistix) was similarly informational. It contained no sales literature or marketing propaganda. I would appreciate it if you could explain why it was rejected, and how I could tweak it so that it conforms to Wikipedia's guidelines.
Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gaucho Jeff (talk • contribs) 22:43, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
I just declined your request for speedy deletion on Pagan Babies (band). The article makes a claim to importance/significance in that it claims two members who went on to become notable on their own right. This meets WP:MUSIC criteria number 6. This does not mean that the group is in fact notable or could suvive an AFD, but only that it is not eligible for A7 deletion, which only requires a claim to importance/significance.---I'm Spartacus! NO! I'm Spartacus! 22:31, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
I am a founding member of a band called Pagan Babies. There is another band with the same name (with Courtney Love) as well as a book.
I would like to include this band to the search and post the article that was deleted.
The band is a legitimate working band with releases on two major noted record labels. we are also mentioned in the philadelphia hardcore punk section on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia_hardcore (this is NOT the Courtney love band of the same name)
Pagan Babies Drummer Bruce Boyd was also the drummer for Grotus, also on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grotus
if the page needs editing to legitimize please advise. thank you in advance. -paganbabies
Hi Nakon. Your closure of this AfD seems to express your opinion that categories are superior rather than a list article, at least in this case. This didn't really seem an to me to be an accurate interpretation of the consensus. It seems like a no consensus or a relist to try and reach a clearer one would have been prefereable and what was indicated by the discussion. As it was a messy AfD with a lot of inappropriate accusations and some moves and improvements along the way, I'm wondering if there's a way to get further reconsideration or a review? I would also encourage you to look at the Obama article and consider whether the categories at the bottom of the page and the numerous templates (mostly collapsed) are really a superior organizational tool for our readers. Just the other day I came across a fungus that was named after Obama at DYK. Sounds silly I know. But as there are already other subjects named after him, that's a perfect subcategory for the list article and I would have liked to have added it in. But alas, the article is no more. Let me know what you think. Thanks. ChildofMidnight (talk) 02:37, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Nakon has already refused to reconsider his decision, earlier on this talk page. I have already started a DRV for the matter, which is here.—S Marshall Talk/Cont 14:46, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm a new user in Wiki. If you don't mind to repeat, please give your main reason why Xiao's article got deleted in your professional point of view, so that it may help me to avoid the mistake in the near future. Thanks, Hectorso (talk) 07:39, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Recently I received a "last warning" from you saying the next time I inserted a link from Bringonmixedreviews.com that I would be blacklisted. Well I have made no such posts after the warning but all of the links that I had posted before hand have been removed.

Hi there. You might want to read and/or address the message left at Talk:Sheree Ali. Regards SoWhy 19:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
My article was deleted seconds after I created it, while I was still writing on the talk page asking for help. Please send me a copy or at the very least tell me why you keep deleting it.
Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my userpage. Ono (talk) 01:30, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Nakon I am shure you are just trying to do your job. Well then follow thru check my site. I am not spamming. I have a website that fans of the movie would like to see. I would like to have a link added to wikipedia. http://dahuipresents.blogspot.com/ is a site for fans of the movie AMERICAN GRAFFITI. I don't know what else to say????????
I am not the owner of the website. I do contribute to it. Its a great site fans love it and I just wanted to share it with American Graffiti fans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by All graffiti all the time (talk • contribs) 02:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
I don't know if you read anything on the page or not, but considering it was deleted mere seconds after hitting the save button, I'd have to say no.
The page was not spam. It was meant as a reference page for a legitimate show currently playing on koldcast.tv.
As you can see, the page didn't even have a link to the show, so I don't see how that could qualify as spam.
The only external link was the reference for the content I posted.
I couldn't remember the password for my old account, which I had stupidly registered without an email address, so I created a new one to add this page, so I can understand how it appears my account was a dummy account.
My name appears on the page second from the bottom in the crew list, I do Digital FX for the show.
There is no copyright violation here, and there is no spam. I thought that would be clear by looking at the page.
Movies and TV shows have listings here, I see no reason why web series should not.
Please re-instate/undelete the page.
thanks.
Temsi72 (talk) 02:05, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Considering the "notability":
The creators and stars of the show, Dave & Tom, have a following online and their videos have aggregated over 12 million views.
The female lead is Brittney Powell, whom you can find online due to her popularity since her recurring role on Xena, and her several television series. Temsi72 (talk) 02:12, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Do I need to update anything? I couldn't find how to respond to your original response, so I updated the original message.
As I explained, the "notability" is because of the cast and creators.
Also, the fact that the series has over 1000 composite shots, more than the first 3 Star Wars movies combined is noteworthy.
Temsi72 (talk) 02:16, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
I most certainly will submit it for review, as I do not believe your judgment on this matter is correct - or final. This is a legitimate listing, which you obviously didn't bother to read before deleting, seeing as you did so within seconds of it being created.
Also, if you or some other moderator decide there is insufficient information, how are we supposed to add it to the page if we can't edit it? Start from scratch? This whole deletion business seems rather archaic and arbitrary. Also, if I were a spammer, would I waste all this time debating this?

I was wondering how you ever came up with delete since there is a majority of keep or merge, therefore it is either keep or no consensus. 76.66.202.139 (talk) 07:27, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm trying to make a myhawk article and you keep deleting it and it's very hard to edit when you keep deleting it. Please stop, i am in the process of making it.
I've been off wiki for a few days with an assortment of family events that rate as near melt-down on the Richter Scale (no, I'm sure that's not right) .... to find that Davidx5 had attacked my page and that you had kindly reverted it. Thank you for taking care of it.
This is a very cunning vandal. In many instances his edits look like bona fide corrections. He may have been banned, but he also edits without signing in, and will almost certainly be back under another name. Anyway, I'll check through my long list of watched articles to see what has been happening. Amandajm (talk) 12:13, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for participating in my "RecFA", which passed with a final tally of 153/39/22. There were issues raised regarding my adminship that I intend to cogitate upon, but I am grateful for the very many supportive comments I received and for the efforts of certain editors (Ceoil, Noroton and Lar especially) in responding to some issues. I wish to note how humbled I was when I read Buster7's support comment, although a fair majority gave me great pleasure. I would also note those whose opposes or neutral were based in process concerns and who otherwise commented kindly in regard to my record. ~~~~~ |
My "images" in my signature are "flagicoms" specially customized to fit a person's signature. They have been wiki-formated to fit in all the regulations.

Thank you for handling this vandalism. Would you consider lengthening the block? The IP has had prolific vandalism over the past month, with escalating blocks by other admins.

Nakon,
You wrote: < /br >
No, it really isn't. Please see the appropriate guideline at WP:SIG which states that signatures must "Avoid markup such as tags and markup (which produce big text), or line breaks (
tags), since they disrupt the way that surrounding text displays." Nakon 15:39, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
Actually, I have no line break in my signture at all. What you're seeing is the super and sub scrip tags used together. Part of my signature is superscripted , the next half is subscripted. ALso, I'm not using any "H1", "HX" tags, I'm using pixel size.
My signature also has the same text as it did before, it just enclosed in a box (a lot of wikipedians , like Ratel, have boxes around their name) so I don't belive my signature is in volation in that sense.
I do admitt, because the color and pixel sizing instructions were too long to put in the signature field in preferences, I've
had to use a different method for signing. I claim IAR on it as the text is signs is the same. However, If consensus is this signature is wrong, belive me, I'll adjust it.
Thanks !

Howdy. Would you be willing to put something on your User page indicating you are an admin? I was reading this and I went to your user page to see if you were an admin or not but there was nothing there. I know there are other ways to find out, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask though.--Rockfang (talk) 01:30, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
