Please restore semiprotection to article Kvens of the past

Art Dominique, a banned user, started to vandalize this article again using sock-puppets immediately after it was unprotected. Please restore the protection, or he is going to continue his activities indefinitely. Edit Well, maybe the protection is not necessary after all. Constant banning of the sock-puppets will hopefully turn him away.--217.112.242.181 11:29, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

VA-304 on deletion review

An editor has asked for a deletion review of VA-304. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, your reasons on how or why you did so will be greatly appreciated in the above review. --NE2 03:29, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Back off please

I would appreciate it if you would wait more than 30 seconds to delete my articles. I started the article with the plan to expand it within the next 24-48 hours. Thanks ever so. Otto4711 04:06, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

RfA thanks

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed with a tally of 66/11/5. I learned quite a bit during the process, and I expect to be learning a lot more in the days ahead. I will be taking things slowly (and doing a lot of re-reading), but I hope you will let me know if there is anything I can do to improve in my new capacity. -- Merope 13:44, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Austin Osueke

Why did you delete Austin Osueke's wikipedia article? He has made many credible contributions in the comic book industry. I was currently working on his article until you deleted it I will report you to the appropriate party.

It was deleted via AFD a week ago, see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Austin Osueke. Jaranda 03:24, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

I was trying to fix this article with verifiable facts (which are not press releases). I need you to unprotect so I can complete the task. He has many substantial contributions and deserves an article in Misplaced Pages. I'm very upset to the point where I will report you to the appropriate party.

So, they can't do anything as it was a valid deletion, take it to WP:DRV. Jaranda 03:37, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

I will take it up to WP:DRV but you should undo your deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SuperCrazy25 (talk • contribs)

It would stay deleted as a valid deletion until a result in WP:DRV is made. Jaranda 03:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

I turned it into a redirect. Jaranda 03:47, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Regarding: Burpee's Seedy Theatrical Company

I was wondering if you could tell me why the article on Burpee's Seedy Theatrical Company was deleted, and then protected so as not to be re-created. Any sort of information would be greatly appreciated.

Fails WP:CSD A7, as non-notable group. I didn't protect it though. Thanks Jaranda 18:18, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I contacted the admin who protected the page – I had uploaded a revised article without knowing the ramifications of my actions which resulted in page protection. Since then I have placed the article in Misplaced Pages:Deletion Review and a small discussion has taken place. I understand the reasons for initial deletion now and I have asserted the relevance and notability of the group and a number of alumni in the review discussion. I have not received constructive feedback since Saturday when I provided requested information on the group. I would be greatly appreciative if you would be able to look over that discussion and, as an individual who has had contact with the original article, provide feedback comparing your initial reasons for deleting and your thoughts now. I am honestly trying to validate the article and show the legitimate notability of the group by itself and within its parent collegiate institution. Any feedback you can provide would be wonderful as the lack of discussion on the issue has worried me. Thank you for your time! DMcDonaldII 01:36, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

User talk:I love entei

Wondering if you had any thoughts or input on this user's current unblock request. Luna Santin 04:10, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

My RfA: Malber

Thank you for your support in my recent nomination for adminship, even though it was unsuccessful. I appreciate the positive comments from an administrator I have a lot of respect for. Thank you. -- Malber (talk • contribs) 15:01, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Regarding External Links on Juan Gonzalez

Why did you remove the external link to the Juan Gonzalez Fan site at http://juangonzalez.vintagegaming.org? This site offers substantial content to collectors of Juan Gonzalez cards and therefore has substantive value and violates none of the linking rules as far as I can discern.

How about you check a cited source before you decide an article is bogus

I just created an article for the former rock band Zuckerbaby, and cited a source that confirms everything I wrote. This source was not some blog or biased organization, but a 6-year old article from one of the most widely-circulated music magazines in Canada. Get off your high horse and stick to messing with topics about which you have at least a passing familiarity.

I didn't delete it as an hoax, but see WP:CSD A7, and also please see WP:NPA Jaranda 02:45, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Re: Chip Ritter

I am unsure why you have deleted this article with in 30 seconds of it being posted. Chip Ritter is a professional drummer that is known world wide. This is an article that should be part of Misplaced Pages. Please take the block off of this article. The A7 comment that you gave for taking deleting the article is invalid. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lemonlime1279 (talk • contribs)

Well it's isn't in encyclopedic form, and Lucky 6.9 deleted it before as a copyvio as well Jaranda 03:02, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

AVHS Marching Band Page

Please explain why this page was deleted... does not fit the definetion of an a7 deletion and was up less than an hour. Thanks, Xiphos 03:03, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

High school marching bands are not-notable, valid a7, see WP:MUSIC. Jaranda 03:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

RE: AVHS Marching Band

Please undelete this article, I feel that it does in fact meet the requirement for placing in a major music competition, and more placings will be posted upon further research. After scanning your comments from other users, I noted that you have a history for overusing the speedy deletion clause and may want to consider the impact on other users. I also note that you pride yourself on being an active member on WIkipedia, but many of your contributions are this kind of deletion soon after a page is created. Numbers are not everything, and I urge you to step back somewhat from your Admin duties as far a deletion of new articles are concerned.

Admins are not God, give the little guys a chance. Isn't that what this project is about?

Xiphos 03:18, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Place it on WP:DRV, or merge it to the school article, as that's the normal result of school marching band in WP:AFD, it's still a valid speedy, in my time here I don't remember one being in kept completely. If you are willing to merge it, I would restore the content and place it on your userpage. Jaranda 03:20, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Why don't you undelete it yourself?

Correction--- Sorry, I did not see the later updated portion of your reply. Thanks for your consideration and help, I will merge the article with the school site. No need to undelete it, I have a backup file.

Thanks, Xiphos 03:29, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok Jaranda 03:31, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Re Streetwise Scarlet

Ok so what is the deal with the deletion since... hmmmm you're a bloody Yank and probably know shite about New Zealand bands and music. And if you actually went to their official site (which may have been myspace but a lot of artists use myspace as their official website now) you would have found not only that they have released singles but that they are being voted for on one of the New Zealand music channels. And since I started it I was going to get the lead singer of the band to expand on it since I sit two cubicles away from him. So before you touch my stuff... bloody well ask and don't EVER do the quick deletion thing to me before I have a chance to question it. So I am going to put them on and you are going to leave it there because there are alot more bands on this site that are way less then what I had put on here. Sorry about the tone and all but it pissed me off and I hate it when people think they know better about another countries music industry than a person who actually lives in that country.

Mount Everest

I reverted your edit because several of the links you deleted do not violate WP:EL. Viewfinder 04:09, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Cory Lidle

People are using the entry as a blog, editing it with every bit of "breaking news". I've started a discussion on the talk page about this.

Ummm. I am simply restoring current information that another user is continuously deleting.Kraken of the Depths 23:12, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

I'm getting it now. You tell someone to go jump off a cliff. Then -- Thanks!

That takes care of everything -- that "Thanks" at the end enables you to say anything. What a wonderful world. Thanks! I'm catching on. Thanks! Xampt 00:38, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

??? Jaranda 00:39, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for blocking that vandal. I didn't know about WP:AIV before; I will remember it in future. Marnanel 01:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

User:The Hungry Hun reported by User:BostonMA

Please look at the first revert again. He adds the same image as the other 3 reverts. --BostonMA 01:21, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

There is also some unexplained blanking in there. Will block if he reverts again within 24 hours. Jaranda 01:22, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by unexplained blanking in there. There has been a content dispute at this page for some time. User:The Hungry Hun has been reverting that image for some time, and has been calling edits by established users "vandalism" in his edit summaries. , , , , , , , , , , , , , etc. --BostonMA 02:07, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

This user made three reverts in Memon and two in Sindhi Memon and memoni language. I cannot revert him again without comitting 3RR myself. Siddiqui 01:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Oops - comment orv 3rrr warn

Selena's mom - what's up with that?

It's getting truly irritating to keep finding people who don't know what they're talking about have come back and fiddled with the article to edit the Quintanillas' nationalities. I found a reliable source to back up that her father is Mexican-American and born in Corpus, but I can't find anything to say where her mother was born. Within the last 48 hours, someone came out of nowhere and posted that she's Panamanian. Huh?!? After all, surely if she were, that would have come up by now ... and they had her maiden name wrong, too. I added in the source for the father and added a source for her mother's maiden name (Texas birth record summaries available online), but if someone could provide a reliable source to confirm her mother's birthplace, it should go a long way toward getting people to stop the uninformed edits on this particular point. Thought I'd mention it in case you have any source that mentions where Marcella Quintanilla was born. Best wishes, Lawikitejana 16:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Update:There's something wrong with the formatting or codes in the message "Gary Kirk's RfA," below. When a person adds a new section to this page, instead of appending, it appears in the middle of Gary's comment. Thought I'd mention it in case you can fix it; for now, I just copied and pasted my comments (and the person before me) into the space before Gary's message.

Gary Kirk's RfA

Dear RenamedUser_jaskldjslak904 Thank you very much for voting in my request for adminship. In the end, not many people let their opinion be known, and I didn't get the mop just yet. I have already begun acting on the issues brought up by the community, and will continue to do so. If you have any more suggestions for me, feel free to let me know. Once again, thank you. — Gary Kirk // talk! 13:02, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
