Would you like to join in the fun of wikifying pages at our wikification drive? Barnstars will be handed out to participants. WikiCopter (radio • sorties • images • shot down) 00:19, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

You marked quite a few images one week ago today at {{npd}}. Many of these images are marked pd-self (e.g., ), with no compelling reason to mark as npd. May I ask you to be more careful in your image tagging? Magog the Ogre (talk) 01:34, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

In fact, today alone on patrol I had to remove 9 ( ) {{subst:npd}} mistaggings of yours on images. Out of those, 3 of those might be considered unfree due to being a derivative work - really they should be going through WP:PUF, as they're not clear-cut cases - but the rest are just inexplicable. Just as bad, not a single npd edit you made was actually valid - none of them were deletable. This not only creates more work for us as administrators, but is rather WP:BITEy towards our users. Please consider being more careful with Twinkle - I do warn you that other users have had their right to use it revoked in the past for being too hasty with it.

Apologies if this message is harsh but hopefully you understand the need for it. Thanks. Magog the Ogre (talk) 02:12, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I see, that wikipedia is mostly atheistic. So what should I do? Wait till atheists kill whole world??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.132.108.252 (talk) 13:41, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Is "unreadable" a good justification for requesting speedy deletion of a user page in Arabic? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:56, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Files that you tagged

Sorry, but if a source is valid at one time, it is always valid for the purposes of this criterion. It's vaguely like print sources: unless we have good reason to believe otherwise, we assume good faith on the part of the uploader. Alternatively, think of rotten links as sources for content: as long as they're properly sourced, with access dates, all style guides accept them as valid. Even if you have good reason to believe that the uploader didn't follow policy, do not edit image descriptions as you did: sources are provided, and removal of them is disruptive. If you find an image whose rotten link you don't trust to have contained the permission that is claimed, you should take it to FFD. Nyttend (talk) 00:27, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Removed speedy deletion tag: User:Levani1980

Hi TeleComNasSprVen! Firstly, thanks for helping out in CSD areas. I just wanted to inform you that I removed the speedy deletion tag you placed on User:Levani1980- because: blanking is not taken as a deletion request in the userspace. If you have any questions or other message, please contact me. Thanks Kingpin (talk) 15:15, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion, again

• File:MOHAR11.jpg (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I see you mistagged the above image again. I'll overlook the fact that WP:CSD#F1 doesn't apply to images on commons, and assume you meant F8 - but the images aren't even of the same tint. Please slow down TCNSV, your talk page is littered with requests to review CSD better and slow down. If you don't, we may have to remove your ability to use Twinkle at all (yes, we can do that). Magog the Ogre (talk) 22:58, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, but I believe that was established after the fact. In any case, if it is that important, I might as well bring it to FfD sometime; I cannot see any mention currently of the tint of the picture having a bearing on the csd criteria. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 04:43, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

The wording states Images available as identical copies on the Wikimedia Commons (or higher quality/resolution). The previous wording I suppose was clearer: "bit for bit copy". Magog the Ogre (talk) 04:47, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

User talk:69.181.249.92 (2)

Thanks. I really, really hate Huggle from time to time. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 04:39, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

No problem. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 04:43, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

FYI

FYI, please keep this in mind when you MfD multiple pages. Cunard (talk) 07:16, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Would tag all the pages listed at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Dp67/Sandboxes/rail-terms with the MfD tag? This helps closing admins who use User:Doug/closemfd.js delete those pages automatically. Otherwise, they would have to delete them manually. Cunard (talk) 05:33, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

User:Alexytor

How does this qualify for G6? I've declined it for now. Airplaneman ✈ 05:04, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Same for User:Wbvanrij. I am aware you moved the welcome to the talk page, but not via page moving, so just keep the pages for attribution, if anything. Airplaneman ✈ 05:08, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Same for User:N8-2007. Deleted the rest you tagged per G6. Got your message on my talk as well, Airplaneman ✈ 05:11, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

I've declined your G7 of User:Dp67/Sandbox as well because it is a sandbox, and I would think they'd be cleared periodically. It doesn't look like the user explicitly requested deletion, so I see no harm in letting it remain. Airplaneman ✈ 05:26, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Alright, thanks for the notification. If I see any more of his sandboxes, I should probably undo the same. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 05:29, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedies declined

Hi, I've declined your speedy-deletion requests for User:Randfan/Vandals and User:Randfan/Vandalism, because the relevant MfD, Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Shanel/Vandalize, does not appear to extend to all similar pages. Feel free to open a separate MfD for these two pages. Dabomb87 (talk) 16:07, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Bulk {{prod}} tagging of Lotus cars

Really bad move. Did you have a WP:POINT, or were you just trying to disrupt things for other editors? Your talk page is full of complaints about your over-hasty seeking of deletion. Hasn't the hint dropped yet? Andy Dingley (talk) 02:18, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Also, why are you using a sockpuppet to do this. Are you simply ashamed of the contributions history for it, and want to distance yourself from your own edits? Andy Dingley (talk) 02:19, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

You have TCNSV (talk · contribs) listed as a doppelgänger account, however doppelgängers are not supposed to be used for editing, they are to be used to prevent someone from impersonating you, by using a username that is similar to your own. --kelapstick (talk) 06:58, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Disruptive picture move requests

Please stop them. The file name ] does not violate the generic provision of file naming conventions. In addition, you requested a move after it was clear there was no consensus for the move on the talk page, and in addition made the strange implication that the uploader was a Texan. Remember that the uploader has a fair amount of leeway in naming files. Thank you. Purplebackpack89 06:48, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

"Requests"? It was just one file name request that you refer to. First, what proof do you have I made more than one such request? Second, where is the policy that states "the uploader has a fair amount of leeway in naming files"? Please remain under good faith and tell me sincerely since I don't know all of Misplaced Pages's rules. I'll also be happy to discuss this on the talkpage instead if you want. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 07:44, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Need to use edit summaries

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to LO-NOx_burner. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

Using inappropriate summaries such as this 'rv promo.' when applied to a non-controversial formatting or linkage issues create an unwarranted appearance of an overly-promotional article and could be considered as WP:POV. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:09, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
