Hi Rjd0060,
I was hoping that you would add back in at least the POV tags added by Xiutwel to the September 11, 2001 Attacks page. If you check the last edit on there, you'll see that it undid two edits which I made. If you feel that they were justified, I'd appreciate revert. If not, can you help me understand why they aren't? Thanks, Dscotese (talk) 01:09, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading Image:NewWJBKlogo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:20, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Dear Rjd0060, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :)
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 04:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, long time no talk :) I have a question, I thought sandboxes or user sub-pages were for the sole purpose of helping/bettering a Wikipedia article? Remember User:ScottAHudson well I noticed he has a lot of subpages related to various reality shows. The Big Brother test pages he has looks like copies/replicas of Big Brother 3 (U.S.), Big Brother 4 (U.S.), Big Brother 7 (U.S.) and Big Brother 9 (U.S.) with the voting history table he suggested during Big Brother 8 (U.S.) but a consensus was reached to continue using the current one?

The D2X-XL chapter of the Descent 2 article has been a target for plain vandalism or malevolent changes of its content for over a year. The issue has just started to get heated today, when a few people involved with the Descent community had decided to take this to a new level and mark the chapter as advertisement, restoring the mark whenever I remove it. You may want to take a look at that chapter. If you decide it's an advertisement, I will accept the decision. The people currently at work are however acting out of a deep personal resentment against me, and the Wikipedia entry is only a vehicle for their destructivity. FYI: Here is a link to a thread of the biggest English speaking Descent community forum, where the issue is discussed: http://www.descentbb.net/viewforum.php?f=37

I notice you have blocked the page Bender, Moldova from being moved by the request of Mikkalai. That user has abused his powers in previously protecting the page.
Refer to the Wikipedia protection policy at Wikipedia:Protection_policy#Move_protection:
"administrators should avoid favoring one name over another, and protection should not be considered an endorsement of the current name."
However Mikkalai has stated that: "This is the official name of the city, according to the evidence presented. Period" in order to justify his actions.
There was previously a proposal to move the page, however it ended with no consensus. This definitely doesn't favour either name. I would be interested to hear your reasons for further protecting the page at his request. Rapido (talk) 10:42, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Calton continues, I randomly pulled user out of Calton's many spam warning contributions over the past day and got this one: User_talk:Billseidle - the user has never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. Should I start a separate WP:AN thread to address this issue? What are your recommendations? Calton never responded to your request for an explanation.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 23:12, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well, no offense Calton, but I know you commonly tag userpages as spam and then add ((temporary userpage)) to their talk pages. Several admins have addressed this issue with you before, including me, but we apparently have a clear difference of opinion over the proper usage of ((temporary userpage)). (See User_talk:Calton#Temporary_userpage.3F, User_talk:Calton#Template:temporary_userpage, User_talk:Calton#Tagging_user_pages_of_unblocked_users, User_talk:Calton#Template:temporary_userpage_2). If I notice these I review them. Some of these are in fact indef blocked and don't have an indef block tag, so the ((temporary userpage)) tag is valid. Others have never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. If you look at CAT:TEMP you'll probably find that many, if not most, usertalkpages are due to ((temporary userpage)) on the talk page - though I'm not saying they're all there due to Calton - I have no idea. Alternatively, [4] will give a good starting place if you go through the ones tagged as spam in particular (Calton puts the template in the edit summary so this is pretty easy). --Doug.(talk • contribs) 23:25, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Why did you fully protect the page? I can understand a semi-protect, but a full is absurd. Every other article about the Playboy "playmates" that I have seen here on Wikipedia includes the disputed information. While I disagree with the tactics employed by a certain editor, I agree with his basic point. Playboy is a reliable source for articles about the "playmates," unless someone can make a darn good argument as to why it's not, in my opinion.
I guess I'm not asking you to unprotect the page. I am asking you to restore the information that was being disputed because, in the end, it is accurate and it is standard information for articles of this nature. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 00:37, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi Ryan, I was searching the Wikipedia talk:How to edit a page for information about a slight problem that I needed to fix, but couldn't find an answer. I saw your sig in the history section and decided to ask an admin directly. I created an article page recently but failed to capitalize the title name. (I confess that I am an idiot, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this is a fairly common problem.) Is it possible to correct this with a simple page edit -- or will I need to recreate an entirely new page under the correctly capitalized name and then submit the older version for deletion?

Point taken on my repeated reversions in this article today. I am stopping. But can we get an administrator to look at this a little more closely? If you look at the quality of the article, and you look at the quality of User:LaGrandefr's edits in both the main article and the talk page, you'll see that User:LaGrandefr's edits are tantamount to vandalism. Several users have tried repeatedly to reason with him and advise him, but he generally seems not even to understand what is going on. It looks to me like some mixture of ill will and incompetence on User:LaGrandefr's part. As such, I reverted his edits today without comment, as is commonly done to unconstructive edits.

Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 04:53, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

I am currently updating new and existing articles with girls who have compete in an Arizona pageant, and was wondering why the former queen Ariel Sorensen was deleted? I have more information reguarding a charity she has started and would like to undelete this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AZPageants (talk • contribs) 20:32, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Can you please tell me what the deal with restoring this article was? As far as I can tell noone removed the prod before it was deleted. Thanks. PageantUpdater talk • contribs 21:58, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
I have only just noticed that this page has been deleted - presumably because it was on no-one's watchlist (certainly not on mine). I noticed it because a link has turned into a redlink on a page on my watchlist. I was a bit surprised - I quickly found another redlink, and a quick Google search throws up a lot of evidence that it is a recognised route. Was the creator of the page was notified? Has anyone checked the links? I would vote for restoring it.Mhockey (talk) 19:54, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
since prodded articles can be undeleted on request, please undelete Corran Horn, and, if you shoose send it to AfD. Of course, I can undelete it myself, if you'd rather.DGG (talk) 23:36, 7 May 2008 (UTC) -- thaqnks DGG (talk) 03:28, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

I saw that you deleted this article because of an expired prod. I basically supported the prod but I am a little surprised by what happened. I thought that I saw in my watchlist earlier today that some IP editor removed the prod (and, if I remember correctly the edit summary, removed the notability tag as well) and that then User:Tosqueira restored the notability tag. As I said, I am personally in favor of deleting the article but would like to make sure that it was done correctly in the procedural sense. I could be wrong and maybe that IP editor did not actually remove the prod but only the notability tag. I did not actually look at the article when this was happening and only saw the edit summaries in my watchlist. In any event, could you please double-check?

This is Brandon Patton himself, inquiring as to why my page was deleted. A fan of mine created the page, and I noticed earlier that it was considered "insufficienty notable" but I believe myself and others added footnotes to the best of our not very-wiki-savvy abilities to save the page. I would be happy to provide better footnotes to the page. I have been composing and performing for 13 years, producing albums, a rock musical in New York City, followed around by a documentary film crew, and won awards. What is considered sufficiently notable?Phlounder (talk) 00:33, 9 May 2008 (UTC)phlounder

Hi, I noticed you deleted the article on Lev Yilmaz. I missed the PROD because I accidentally added "Lev Yilmaz" to my watchlist instead of "L E V." I've been meaning to fix that article up for a while, and I'm pretty sure I can find external links indicating notability. He's won multiple awards in independent film festivals. Could you restore the article to my sandbox so I can try to fix it up? I'll make sure to look through the notability requirements on filmmakers before I attempt to restore it.

I would like to propose undeletion because a lot has been added to the only source, including a history of the awards and the author. if this article is nominated for deletion again I will look for more evidence of it's notability. thank you. Hooty88888 (talk) 23:44, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Why has her former name, marriage, and religious heritage been deleted? These are all common, mundane, non-libelous elements of a biography. How do they violate the BLP guidelines?
If this persists, I will bring it up with Jimbo. If the wikipedia bureaucrats are skewing information, this is a serious matter indeed.
You have NOT stated how the information deleted violates the BLP guidelines. Why has her former name, marriage, and religious heritage been deleted? Virtually all wikipedia biographies contain this information; Carlos Memen for example. Plus, all of this information is public. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.150.34.208 (talk) 01:16, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Because you cannot add unconfirmed information to a biography article. But the information IS confirmed. The marriage is a matter of public record. Her other name has been confirmed -- by herself on Wikipedia no less, and in other places -- as being her other name. Her religious affiliation during college is noted in public records (scholarship announcements in an offline newspaper) as well. So, please explain to me what information is 'unconfirmed'-- or let the information stand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.150.34.208 (talk) 10:03, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
No offense, but... (Yeah, I know what that means—I'm going to tear you apart but don't be offended :P )
Seriously, I own a PS3 and I know many people who own PS3s and Xbox 360s. I can assure you, PlayStation 3 should probably remain semi-protected until the PS4 comes out (i.e. at least until 2011, probably longer.)
Basically what I am saying is, don't unprotect PlayStation 3. There is no way it will not be vandalized until the PS4 comes out. Even then, I'm not so sure. J.delanoygabsadds 18:22, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Rjd0060, on requests for page protection, you declined the extension for Ton Hanks, though as you posted it, I had reviewed the page's history and decided to increase it to two weeks.
