Kentucky
I see you've requested a peer review for Kentucky. Please add the notice of the new peer review on the article's talk page. Interestingly, W.marsh and I have just been discussing in the last couple of days how to improve the article to GA or FA status. Seems you've beaten us to the punch on requesting a new peer review. We would love to have your help, especially as this would be a huge coup for WikiProject Kentucky. Let's coordinate our efforts and get this thing done! Thanks again!

- Thanks for posting some suggestions for the article Kentucky at WP:PR. Also, I noticed that you'd made a comment on the culture section. Well, now, the culture section somehow ended up towards the bottom of the page, below the references section, and it does not show up when you try to edit it. Could you try to see what's wrong with it, because I can't find the source of the problem. Thanks again for the suggestions, and good luck editing. Cool Blue 00:25, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Sorry but I didn't seem to have a problem opening that section for editing. Perhaps it was reverted? You might check the history tab on that page to find out. — RJH (talk) 14:37, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
- Well, it doesn't appear to be there anymore, nor does it show it on any archived version of the page. But the whole thing was filled with software malfunctions when I read the page. It might have been my computer, or the software might have been malfunctioning. Anyways, thanks for reviewing the article, and reviewing the problem. Cool Blue 00:21, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
It could have been a problem with Misplaced Pages's back-end MySQL database. Sometimes Misplaced Pages just gets a little flakey. Usually it gets cleared up, but I suspect a DBA is probably resetting (or restarting) something in the background. — RJH (talk) 15:36, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages edits
I am aware that i have i high count. However, i keep feeling worried over the nuerous word association edits. Probably minus 900 edits or something and there is the real count. Do you think i would be okay? Thanks for the nom btw. I will think about it. Simply south 14:39, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- Ok. I think i'm good in other areas. Strangely i am a regular on WP:RM and i am involved in numerous transport projects, on of which i am trying to manage slowly but surely. I also like being interactive
- There is another thing that is worrying me right now. It is just it is coming up to my uni exams soon. So i may not be so responsive. Simply south 14:49, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
possible decision
- Well thank you for the gesture but i think i am still going to turn this down, or can this RfA be postponed for about 20 days? Simply south 15:18, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you. That'll be the end of my end of year exams. Should i accept now or then? Simply south 15:32, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- Or maybe it could be placed again? What exactly do you mean by speedied in this case? I would prefer the full 5 day Simply south 17:08, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- Oh i see. Simply south 17:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Re: Kent Simpson AfD
I wrote that message just before I went to work so didn't have time to look through the guidelines on AfD's thoroughly, so didn't realise I could withdraw my submission. I would have, but there has been another opinion of Delete and a "Weak" keep since I commented, so I'm going to let democracy run its course and see what happens :) I do contend the idea that the person is notable, so I'll let others decide what they want to do with it.

RE: Revision Of Kent Simpson
Thank you for your effort in keeping the article for Kent Simpson. Even though there is some international speculation whether or not the World Hockey League is professional (participants get paid funds for living and are technically 'paid athletes' which is deemed to be professional by the United States,disallowing all WHL players to apply to or be schooled in U.S. colleges) wow, that was a big sidetrack, regardless, what I was saying was even though there is speculation, so it's hard to know whether or not he is professional or just a top amateur, I definitely believe that he is an outstanding player and deserves a nod from Misplaced Pages. Although us Canadians don't live in Igloos or eat seal blubber (for the most part) we do make some stereotypes ring true and the most of which is our love for hockey. Thanks so much for, if you wanted to you could say, catering to this article and I'm glad Misplaced Pages allows things which I definitely think are notable to be articles. Thank you again, very much. Antmayfield 23:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Okay Jake. I just wrote two full length articles on the "Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion" and "Runescape". On the one about runescape, i didn't re-post the same article I had already created, i made a new one. Yeah.Bmader 16:11, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I know that it's supposed to be reported at WP:UAA, but until WP:UAA is officially recognized as a notice board, WP:AIV can still be used. I'm not going to revert, but please respond to my talkpage.

Actually, User:Steel359, who put the semi-protection on it, told me that he has no intention of unprotecting it any time soon. I'd only requested two weeks, but the vandalism was so egregious that he felt he had to leave it protected longer. Blueboy96 14:21, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
Re: Name
I'm backed up on Misplaced Pages work to do, but I was just sort of wondering where your username came from. Cool Blue 13:58, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
- Areopagitica? That's what I thought it was :) Majorly (hot!) 14:11, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
- The origin of my username. Thanks for the interest! (aeropagitica) 18:46, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks!

Thank you Cool Blue, for voting on my RfA. Although it failed, I will try to improve in the ways pointed out to me, and maybe I will become an admin next time. If you have any comments, questions, etc., you know where to go. ¿SFGiДnts! ☺ ☻ 22:30, 6 May 2007 (UTC) |

TFD
Hello. I need some way to file a report so a template can a get a deletion. However I'm not sure whether or not TfD would be the right place for it, because the template is a userbox that does not begin with the Template: in the URL. It can be found here. Thank you! Cool Bluetalk to me 22:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
- You could always try with MFD for Misplaced Pages and user pages. CG 14:32, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Out Out at AfD
Hi, I see you took the article Out Out to AfD. However, I'd assert they meet WP:BAND under criterion 5 - they've been released on Metropolis, who are a major indie label in the USA.
Also, the article may be badly written and very POV, certainly, but it was created just 3 minutes before you took it to AfD. I'm wondering, why didn't you tag it with cleanup or notability instead? If the poor noob who created that page decides to never come back to Misplaced Pages because his article was AfDed 3 minutes after creation, how does that help you build a community here? AllGloryToTheHypnotoad 03:42, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the original "Out Out" article, which was created 4 months ago, was a poem by Robert Frost. I went through the logs and looked at it. But the new guy just recently created the band article, and 3 minutes later you AfDed it. The new guy's since been blocked, because he chose an offensive username. In any case, you assert non-notability, but the article states the band had several releases with Metropolis, which satisfies WP:BAND. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad 20:45, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- I agree, the article right now is badly written, but the fellow who created it did admit he just copied their bio. Perhaps it's better to have a stub than what's there now, I'd agree with that. Anyway, one person in the AfD debate has already volunteered to clean it up if it's kept. Problem solved. BTW, my only issue with this was the quick-trigger AfD. If the article had been here a year, I'd have been in favour of deletion too, just because of its low quality. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad 20:52, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Please stop
