An editor has asked for a deletion review of William_Sledd. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Reboot 18:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
The article Barbie had been semi-protected for quite a while, but the reason was that there is a long term problem with children and IP vandals adding nonsense to the article. See [1] for what happened within twenty minutes of unprotecting the article. To keep the article sensible and ready to read at any time, semi-protection has become near essential for this article.--Ianmacm 15:03, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. Incidentally, today is Barbie's official "birthday", as she was launched on March 9 1959. At that time few people would have known that vandalizing her Wikipedia article would become a full time hobby for some people.--Ianmacm 15:28, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Clicking around in WP-land I struck upon a strange WWII-related word in the first line of the ko: pages[2].--Antiphus 06:33, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for following up about this page. You're right that I have not yet done anything with this page, but another user (User:Argyriou) recently expressed interest in incorporating some of its content into the parent organization's article (University Students' Cooperative Association). Please be patient; I am aware that Wikipedia is not a free web host and I could host this page myself if that was my intention. Mike Dillon 14:23, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
FYI, I left a note for Argyriou to see if he still intends to use the restored Lothlorien content. If he's no longer using it, I'll get back to you about deleting the page. Mike Dillon 14:29, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Your name is still listed at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Volunteers. The department is heavily backlogged with student's requests for coaches, and we need your help!
Note that the instructions may have changed since the last time you checked, and the department now follows a self-help process...
If you don't currently have a student, or if you believe you can handle another one, please select a student from the request list at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests and contact them. See the instructions on Wikipedia:Admin coaching. Good luck.
If you are no longer available to coach, , please remove yourself from the volunteers list.
Thank you.

Hi Samuel, If you have time, could you please check and maybe even correct the grammar of the article about Leo Fuld that I've translated?--Antiphus 12:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
First of all - I dont care about this guy, im not a fan or anything. He has a music album out, songs downloadable on iTunes, he made a guest appearance on ANTM (America's Next Top Model). At one point he did Paris Hilton's makeup... This isn't Notability vs Popularity IMO. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Species2112 (talk • contribs) 04:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC).

Eh... are you sure this is CSD A7? It's not a product, nor are products covered by A7 anyway. I'm pretty sure this was a moderately well-known software package back in the day, and was somewhat relevant back in the day when people still used Napster-like P2P protocols. That said, I'm not sure if it's a relevant or remarkable software package now and I don't want to debate on whether or not it has any historic merit (because I'm too lazy to check, basically, I'm not sure if their work was really groundbreaking or anything); all I'm saying I been on cranky enough mood to delete this, I guess I would have shoved this through AfD just in case. =)
(And why is this article relevant to me? I'm doing an university course and this exercise somehow talks about Napster protocol, so I obviously wanted to see how this old project I heard about ages ago is doing right now to get some idea of how Napster protocol worked. [3] Yes, apparently it has a very very very tiny bit of academic worth =) --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 11:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Is there a way to undelete Wikipedia:B.R.I.T.T.A.N.I.C.A.? Here is my reasoning.
1. If you delete that article, you must also delete this one: Wikipedia:Primogeniture, which was the basis of the B.R.I.T.T.A.N.I.C.A. article.
2. B.R.I.T.T.A.N.I.C.A. is not a wikipedia competitor, it is an evil organization.
3. The encyclopedia Britanica is spelled with only one letter "t", while B.R.I.T.T.A.N.I.C.A. is not a word at all, but an acronym consisting of several words.
4. The article was clearly marked as humor.
5. There is no Cabal.

Thanks to you, everyone hates me! So please unblock 202.76.162.34 now!
Just a heads-up that I made a small change in the ((DRV top)) (or ((drt))) template: the level 4 header, with a (closed) marker, is now part of the template. So any discussion can now be closed by simply replacing the four equal signs on each side of the title into the the template text:
====[[Title]]====
is changed to
((subst:drt|[[Title]]|Decision))
which turns into

Deletion review
Deletion review is for reviewing the deletion of entire articles. Removal of text should be discussed on the relevant talk page, in this case Talk:Dust.
In the case you are referring to the text you added was copyrighted, and had to be removed. As it says on every edit page, contributions must be licensed under the GFDL and not violate anyone's copyright. You are welcome to add text to any article in your own words as long as you cite your sources. --Sam Blanning(talk) 12:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Sam,
I am a little confused. The item I entered was jointly written by myself and my fellow director, Nick Vousden-White, so how can my inclusion of it on the Wickipedia pages be an infringement of copyright? It was Nick who submitted the text to the NCCA magazine (without transfer of copyright) and it was I who published it at http://www.worldofclean.co.uk/index.php?show_aux_page=6 a site owned by my company (Solution UK Ltd.) Regards, John E Bolton MBICSc.
Hi - actually, her first name, believe it or not, really was Stanley - she was named after her father, Stanley Dunham, who allegedly did so because he really wanted a son. There are a lot of google hits on Shirley, but from what I've been able to determine from multiple sources, her name was Stanley. Just one more unusual detail in an unusual bio. I just wanted to let you know why I changed it back - that it's not vandalism or a joke. I added a ref and an explanation to the article, which I hope will suffice.
