| == Quick reminder on placing notices == | |||
| Hi Ridernyc! I'd like to respectfully remind you when doing Recent Changes patrol, to use the appropriate level of warning, in succession, per ]. A user ] as a first notice, as we are always to ]. Most likely, you already know this, but I noticed you used an "only notice" on a first warning, for an offense that wasn't terribly egregious. The user did go on to get blocked, but the policy is we should still assume good faith, and use escalating warnings, so I thought that might be helpful. Please don't take this as admonishment or criticism, as it is not at all that, it is just (hopefully) a helpful suggestion. Cheers! <sup>]<font color="FF69B4">♥</font>]</sup> 20:41, 27 August 2007 (UTC) | |||

Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Misplaced Pages and ] to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to ] users if they have received a recent final ] (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) ''and'' they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. {{{2|Thank you!}}} <!--Template:Uw-AIV--> ]]] 10:11, 2 October 2007 (UTC) | |||

| Hi - after thinking about it you're quite right, the coovachilli page added no information. I have added the same basic information to the captive portal page and to the chillispot page. | |||

| == Musicworks speedy deletion == | |||
| I woke up this morning to find that the Musicworks page I created yesterday was removed without so much as a chance to plead my case. | |||
| Perhaps I don't understand the politics of Misplaced Pages. Evidently the page was deleted because it was believed that the magazine was a "company." Calling it a company would be a complete misnomer, especially because the magazine is in fact a publicly-funded not-for-profit institution; does the Smithsonian have a page on Misplaced Pages? | |||
| As for the importance of the magazine, it has been one of the only forums '''worldwide''' for the discussion of experimental music for 30 years. It's been run by volunteers for the majority of its life and has contributed significantly to not only the discourse of experimental music but the music itself. In many cases it's been the only place for experimental artists to have their music published, as financially un-viable music has few avenues in our market-driven economy. | |||
| If you want proof of its importance, search wikipedia for "musicworks" and see all the pages that reference the magazine. | |||
| If the page is lacking in substance, it would have been better to point out what the page is lacking and allow time for improvement rather than deleting it immediately. I can't understand how anything gets done in this place if the knee-jerk policy is deletion. | |||
| I'm aware that there's a policy to not write about one's own company. I've already established that it's not a company, and the importance of the magazine's 30-year existence goes far beyond my half-year tenure as editor. | |||
| If you believe it was put there for promotional reasons, do some research about the organisation before it's decided that it's not worthy for wikipedia. | |||

| Why do you consider all of my creations vandalism, I just told what I knew about the One Twelve Music Group. If you didn't think it was enough, go out and get the information and make it notable enough. It really hurts my feelings when you delete my work. Honestly, the fact that you mainly pick on me is a form of bullying and harassment. I, once again am sorry for threating you please just forgive and forget. It seems that you always have a problem with the things that I do for the site. People that do things like this make people's contributions feel useless and it makes them say things out of anger. So now you want me blocked for giving you an apology and '''creating''' a positive article about a record label that is on the rise. Don't get mad at my qusetion, but were you bullied in school or the youngest child in your family or something because it would explain your controlling attitude. Why can't you try to work with me instead of deleting my work like going behind me and fixing my errors, not wiping them out of existence. Why do you hate me so much when I have tried to make peace, I was wrong for my first note to you, but you still always call me disruptive, when I am just trying to expand the website. I am not a mean person so why are you trying to cause problems I am a peaceful person, and you deleting my work and now trying to block me really hurts my feelings. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 22:08, 10 October 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||

| Thank you for this reassurance and I want to take this time to apologize for engaging in an online "beef" with you and I also want to apologize for cursing at you I was way out of line. But when I checked out my page is seemed like you were the only one trying to delete my work and that's the reason I reacted the way I did. Then the fact that you deleted my page, so I went back and tried to make it right and you still got rid of it was to me a slap in the face. But now that I know you have no problems with me, I have none with you and I hope that we can collaborate in the future. I will not be doing as much work at Misplaced Pages as I am also doing work for a new 💕 and I have also created my own, but I have no hard feelings against you I am so glad we cleared the air. I also want to tell you I lied about who I was I told you I was J Dude or something like that I said that hoping that you would feel guilty when you found out that the artist knew his work was being deleted (I did it because this was during out dispute) how long have you been doing this site <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 20:59, 11 October 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
