Hi there. I have edited the article User:Arigg/Yoodoo.biz. It is basically a website with free business advice for anyone who wants to start their own business. A useful resource now the government has cut Business Link services. Could you please take a look at it and tell me if it's suitable. Many Thanks. Arigg (talk) 13:44, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
I just happened to follow your recent discussion started at WP:NCHD, and regarding Google News results, note that a generic search there is restricted to news items from the past 30 days (though nothing on the page tells you this). Right below the search field you'll see a link to "Advanced search"; click that, and on the next page click "archive search," which will show you all results since the Triassic. Many a user trying to source an article with news stories has been baffled by their lack of results because of this.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 17:45, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I'm putting together on article at Bull/proposed article to supplant the existing disambig page, which is a magnet for links intended to point at an article on the male of cattle. Since you did quite a bit of work on Cattle, I thought you might be able to help quickly punch this up to full-blown article status. Any assistance would be appreciated. Cheers! bd2412 T 01:11, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Not really sure how to contact you so.. You deleted my Friendly Fire Gaming page. I am the owner of the site and I am confused as to why it was deleted. I am not trying to advertise, just do a history of the site. Is this not allowed? How do the other sites get their own Wikipedia pages?

...so I already know for a fact that there wasn't any football in 1233. But I had to look it up to see whether there was any football in 1233. It seemed plausible. The rules and equipment are simple, after all. And I already knew there was golf at that time. But, no, no football of any kind in 1233. Too bad. I had a lovely picture in my head, of medieval lads and lasses on a green yard somewhere, kicking a pig's bladder... -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:30, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I saw in the protection log that you protected the page. I was correcting typos on various pages and came across one on this page, but wasn't able to edit it due to the [edit=sysop] (indefinite) protection.

Hi there, just a quick note, when moving AFC submissions to the AFC 'area' of wikipedia, can you move it to the correct location please? You moved Barbara Annis to Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Barbara Annis when it should have been moved to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Barbara Annis.
I'm only mentioning it because it still classes it as misplaced otherwise. Thanks - Happysailor (Talk) 21:42, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Many thanks for that. My connection was acting up like nobody's business - pages taking forever to load, etc. Seems OK now. Anyway, the editor in question (and, I think, many of the editors at the AfD) is quite new - they have rollback, and I think they're in general a good editor (I think they're all good faith editors, despite the fighting...) but still seems to be finding their way round policy: I warned them yesterday about inappropriate use of rollback. In their defence, I think they're probably more clued-up than some of the other editors...
Anyway, thanks again (I think this might be the second time today, at least, that you've done something I either needed done or was about to do!) TFOWR 19:43, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I am one of the contributors to Kourosh Zolani’s page deletion discussion. We realized today that a user had removed huge part of our contribution to the discussion which thankfully you reverted it. However, I checked the history of the discussion and this user had removed another big part of our contributions to the discussion before too. Here is the link. Would you please bring those comments back to the discussion as well? Thank you, Sozlati (talk) 21:26, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
Just 2 reasons: 1) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Professional_wrestling/Archive_78#Florida_Championship_Wrestling A long discussion where it was decided that the roster in the article would be the same as the one on the Roster page of FCW website. 2) Mikeymike2001 thinks that he is the owner of the FCW article.

Hi Syrthiss, I know you've dealt with this user previously, just wanted your opinion on his recent moves of his user and talk pages (seems rather disruptive - he's not exactly archiving them), and more particularly, this on his "user page":

Hey, thanks for blocking this article but the danger has prob passed. Keller was on Aus TV last night and made specific mention of her WP article and some weird "facts" it contained. The bit about her reporting on Charlie and Di's wedding should also be removed. It is not mentioned in the in-line cite (nor elsewhere) and could not have occurred since the wedding was some 2 years prior to her starting in TV.

The article 1to1 design s.r.o. has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((dated prod))
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing ((dated prod))
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 20:04, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Dear Syrthiss, You posted a message subsequent to my deletion of a sentence in an article.

Thanking you in anticipation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Katherine Woods (talk • contribs) 15:12, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi Syrthiss, I've reverted as vandalism because the user was taking the prod notices without any valid explanation, despite of being told several times. His summary which says reference are provided was already there when I put the Prod notice for the first time. Moreover I'm pretty convinced he is using several IPs to do the same. Anyway thanks for letting me know. I'll put the notice back. If it is removed again by him or any of his IPs, I'll take it to afd. This kind of articles (self and family) are pretty common in biography articles from India. Mathew Joy (talk) 18:12, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

I was just in the process of constructing the page for The Low Miffs when you went away and deleted it. Can you not give me 24 hours or something to stick it together? If it's totally disappeared now, that's all my work wasted. I'm not very good at this, so it takes me bloody ages to get this stuff together. I'll get citations and all the rest of that guff, I just need more than ten minutes in which to do it.

Is it possible to unprotect the page now? User:EunSoo has been banned for doing some crazy socking.

Hi Syrthiss, I am looking for advice. The below has been posted on a page nominating the Belen Echandia page for deletion (same person has repeatedly attempted to get it deleted in the past week. You asked him of his interest, I also tried to discuss, s/he didn't reply). A couple of days ago it was voted Keep. The allegations s/he makes are untrue and not backed up with reliable references. I have wondered from the beginning whether this user has a conflict of interest or other reason for wishing to have the Belen Echandia page taken down (I have no evidence of this, other than conduct). I don't want anything I say to be considered a legal threat or unfair comment. I have done my best to be civil. I ask this as the owner of the company, not the person originally responsible for posting the page - since the untrue statements relate to our company. What do you advise?
"I believe that this page is commercial in nature and should be deleted unless modified and displays alternate opinions. Belen Echandia does not uniquely offer a bespoke service, many handbag designers offer this same service. In addition, I found many exargerations in the page including the notion that Vogue's servers were down because Belen Echandia. In addition, based on the feedback read in the previous note, the writer has an obvious connection to the owner. I am a member of the Purse Forum and Belen Echandia is notorious in their attempts to control content about their product. There were many instances where the owners of the Purse Forum were considering closing the thread dedicated to the product because of the written harrassment from devotes. A quick search will not only display problems with quality and customer service but some members have even stated that if they didn't write postive reviews about the company, they would be prohibited from purchasing.
I agree that this article is advertising not encyclopedic information. The original poster [[User:Parafianowicz|Parafianowicz] of this article was linked to the article subject as proved most compellingly by his/her own statement on the picture submission page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Belen_Echandia_Logo.jpg . The text is very highly biased and possibly can't be correct in any case as quoting the real (ex-)customers of this company counts as original research. Most citations are references to interviews given by the company owner in possible violation of WP:SELFPUB. All discussions on this article are dogged by Findingtruths who claims to be the owner of this company. He/She has resorted to aggressive comments, sucking up to administrators, and legal threats to suppress any discussion or improvement of this article. This company is known by ex-customers as using high pressure sales and promising discounts in return for favors. I believe this company is getting customers to update this article with the information it wishes to see here in order to use Wikipedia as free advertising.

The usually very reliable signbot did not go in and sign it, as you can see.

There are more than JUST the church of jediism, that have loyal followers, that believe in the philosophy and spirituality of the Force. Jediism ISN'T just that church.

Syrthiss, if you look at the SSM article, you will see that I am hard at work addressing the concerns raised by the editor who has repeatedly zapped everything (not one edit--every single edit) that I have done on this article today. I have reverted absolutely nothing, but have merely restored the edits that were reverted improperly. I will be more than happy to address concerns on the talk page and work toward consensus, but I see no willingness on the part of the other editor. I visited the other editor's page to try to work this out, but the behavior continued. May I suggest that you remind the other editor that he/she, too, could be blocked? (I did not start this edit war). I noticed that your note on that user's page was a whole lot milder than the one I got from you. Thanks.184.74.22.161 (talk) 18:19, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you... may I trouble you for a block of Him for harassment and block evasion. Here : User_talk:MLauba Section Block Evasion there is more information... as well as on User_talk:Moonriddengirl talk page. CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 15:19, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
I agree: if Dromeaz-as-ip only edited your page, and was constructive, I would not block. Otherwise, I'm inclined to continue Mlauba's pattern then. However, I'm also likely to disappear for the next few days so I may not be exactly timely myself. Syrthiss (talk) 16:22, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
*further lols* (sorry MRG) :D Syrthiss (talk) 16:50, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
You refused to remove a block on a friend's IP address, and then didn't respond to his follow-up message in regards to you action. Since he is unable to post on your page, I was asked to put his response on your page on his behalf. Forgive me if I am not using proper protocol, as I am not a regular user of Wikipedia. I have never made a post on this site and I'm not sure I'm using the proper technique to do so, so also forgive me if this is not the right technical procedure to post something on you page, but I do share my friends concerns and feel they ought to be heard. From his response (The link to it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:98.160.221.12):
The stated reason for the block was "long term abuse." I contest the claim that two posts over six days can fit the definition of "long term." Secondly, although the first edit that I ever made on this MAY have constituted abuse. The second edit, in no, way, shape, or form constitutes "abuse," as it is factual information, which contained no profanity, threats, obscenity, etc. It is simply not abusive under your own rules. It may have been improperly placed, but that is not grounds for blockage.
Additionally, the second edit did not violate any other provision that I am aware of after reading the Wikipedia page that states the reasons to allow blocking of a user. I simply made a statement in my second edit that the majority of administrators here at Wikipedia clearly find to be politically incorrect, as I have always noticed a heavy left-wing and totalitarian slant present in Wikipedia entries. This belief is currently being substantiated by how this issue is being handled -- you won't even adhere to your own rules...a clear sign of totalitarian and Marxism. Consider your own rules:
-As a rule of thumb, when in doubt, do not block. −−−−→Clearly there would be reason to doubt, specifically when my edits were never made on the page because they were incorrectly stopped by a filter that was made to catch a different individual who is a frequent "abuser" of this website (This was admitted by another administrator when I protested the filter).
-Administrators should take special care when dealing with new users. Beginning editors are often unfamiliar with Wikipedia policy and convention, and so their behavior may initially appear to be disruptive. Responding to these new users with excessive force can discourage them from editing in the future. −−−−→Only having made two edits in six days clearly would make me a new user. Perhaps the iron-fisted ways that you deal with new users, such as myself, who also happen to be right wing and very much in favor of the fair enforcement of rules, are so turned-off by this website. Most aren't willing to try to fight the administrator's violation of Wikipedia's rules and simply move on to other sites. Then you are left with a heavy bias because all that remains are left-wing contributors, which is very contrary to the concept of Wikipedia.
-A user may be blocked when his or her conduct severely disrupts the project; that is, when his or her conduct is inconsistent with a civil, collegial atmosphere and interferes with the process of editors working together harmoniously to create an encyclopedia. −−−−→There is no way my actions could be cited as "severe," when all I did was add two governments to a list of Marxist governments. I, along with a great deal of others, believe they currently have become governed by Marxist rules. I see there is a documentation requirement that I missed, but I can easily provide documentation. Additionally, there was no documentation provided for the nations already listed as Marxist. It appears that a fellow Marxist is simply trying to protect the Marxist regimes by blocking me, specifically when the changed information was never published on the page.
-Blocking is a serious matter. The community expects that blocks will be made with good reasons only, based upon reviewable evidence and reasonable judgment, and that all factors that support a block are subject to independent peer review if requested. −−−−→Once again, it requires ALL factors to be independently reviewed. Your statement: To be unblocked, you must CONVINCE [nice burden of proof there, by the way] the reviewing administrator(s) that the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or the block is no longer necessary because you understand what you have been blocked for, will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and will make useful contributions instead.
I clearly understand that I've been blocked for "long-term abuse," which I have disputed. Even if it is "abuse," which I don't feel it is, its certainly not "long term" in nature. You, however, clearly display that you have not considered the factor of whether or not the other administrator's block was with-in Wikipedia guidelines to begin with. I encourage you to review Wikipedia's own grounds for instituting a block, which will clearly displays that this block was completely unwarranted.
To me, it appears that certain administrators have used power to suppress opposing views, instead of address them in the manner that Wikipedia's own standards require. It's shameful and a violation of the spirit of Wikipedia. However, it does expose the lengths that the left will go to in order to advance their agenda.
I encourage you to ensure that the standards of Wikipedia are followed by it's own administrators, who should have full-knowledge of the standards, instead of unwarrantably attacking a first-week user. Otherwise, you do take the risk of making Wikipedia appear further biased to us on the right-wing, who comprises half of this world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.61.180.141 (talk) 02:45, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
Hey there.
A capital letter was probably used because it refers to the results of a spell (curse/magical action, whatever) so the OP assumed it warranted capitalisation, much in the same way Petrificus Totalus is capitalised.
I agree with your assertation, incidentally, that it doesn't need capitalisation, but hey - you did ask!

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on KAY (Singer), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hang on))
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. ttonyb (talk) 20:01, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Saw you helped out on a recent inappropriate move of the Brian Reynolds article. I've noted on the discussion page for that article that disambiguation to Brian Reynolds (strategy game designer) isn't really appropriate for an individual who has designed games in several genres and is more recently involved with facebook games and role-playing games. (Also the disambiguation itself was performed by a user who apparently was promoting a band "Creation's Tears" the page for which has subsequently been deleted - so the appropriateness of disambiguation itself may be questionable).
I'm not exactly an expert on WP and wouldn't dare try to move/rename a page, but since you'd shown an interest & expertise I thought you might be willing to look into it. Thanks! 68.34.0.181 (talk) 17:04, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

I did not know that rule before, but I think it is clear now, there are 4 "HATICE SULTAN"s in Turkish wikipedia, and I have preserved the contents of Princess Hatice which does not have a Turkish Wikipedia page, and Hatice Sultan (1766–1821) which has a Turkish page. Turkish Wikipedia has also another Hatice Sultan, the Daughter of "Abdülhamid II" which does not exist in English wiki. The fourth one is "Hatice Sultan", the daughter of Murad V, this page does not exist in English and Turkish Wiki, as well. Perhaps somebody prepares these pages soon. 193.255.108.20 (talk) 16:32, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
I have now fixed your cut and paste move. From looking at the Hatice Sultan page on the Turkish wikipedia, it is unclear to me that our Princess Hatice article has an article over there. It seemed to be redlinked. If you have the appropriate link, I'd appreciate you putting it in.

Hello Syrthiss,
With reference to your message posted on Credit card balance transfer page, I would like to state that I respect Wikipedia guidelines and adhere to them. Therefore, I fell I should discuss this link with you. Actually I wanted to add-on to this credit card balance transfer article. If one is discussing about credit card balance transfers, then one should not be kept in dark about the usage of credit cards. We are actually unaware of how these credit card companies can eat us by altering Annual Percentage Rate and charging Effective Annual Interest Rate. Moreover, this article should also talk about the reality of different flat rates. If I had to spam or use it for marketing, I could have posted the link of this site on Ezine Articles or Articles Base websites. In They could have generated ample traffic but I feel it's our ethical and moral responsibility to guide users about considerations they have to make while transferring balances from one credit card to another. I also feel that comparison of different credit cards available in the market will give potential customers an insight on the current credit market. Therefore, I request to place this link on this page because I learnt many things regarding credit transfers from this website. The article currently has no citations or references and this link will be very handy for Wikipedia users. I will also add more content in the coming days.
And let me know if I can do anything else for wikipedia.

But I did not place it there to begin with, I was trying to get rid of it as it was an eyesore towards the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David31584 (talk • contribs) 11:59, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
Well pardon me for making a slight error that I was on the verge of fixing, I'm only human you know.
Sorry, but I thought you were trying to make fun of me (I have autism you see), I see now that you weren't, I'm sorry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David31584 (talk • contribs) 18:54, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
...for taking care of my Talk/Awards page. I kinda saw that coming, since I'd just taken one off another user's page. Oh well. Thanks! Wikipelli Talk 17:44, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
There is of course irony that YC has removed my comments for him to tone down his rhetoric, yet feels it necessary to reinstate those on anothers page. Whilst I stand by my urging for him to moderate his comments, I also respect his userspace - which is why I reverted vandalism there some time back. I agree that his blunt comments could be regarded as personal attacks C'est la vie, perhaps a more formal warning, given his other comments on the page? a_man_alone (talk) 17:18, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
Think this merits a block? I'd given him a final warning after this edit summary. OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:12, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
Just FYI, you're being discussed in relation to in IP address's block appeal at VPP (specifically Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)#Admin_abuse.) Hasteur (talk) 19:35, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
You are reminded that users may blank their own talkpage, as blanked warnings still exist in the page history. Do not edit war to restore comments as that behavior is not exempt from 3RR and may be considered harassment. Syrthiss (talk) 11:20, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for reverting the IP edit to my talk page and blocking them. Unfortunately that's not going to stop them - they seem to have a very wide IP range and ownership issues. See WP:AN/I#WikiHounding / Article ownership issues / Possible IP socks.. XXX antiuser eh? 13:18, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
I am editing the top part of the entry to reflect the cancellation of CANARIE funding in the recent 2012 budget. The funding was present in the version of the budget tabled in the last parliament by the former minority Harper Government but it has been removed as 'no longer required'. Let me know if you have any issues with any of this and I will address your concerns as quickly as possible. I am trying vary hard to be neutral and to document this extremely well. I may lose my job because they were paying my salary. If you are not familiar with the nuances of the Canadian parliamentary system, I am a former government employee and will I explain it to you.
It is shocking that Canada would become the only G-20 country without a Nationally-funded Research and Education Network. This has not been picked up by the press as yet so it is important that this Wikipedia entry be accurate and timely. Please allow me to enter the documentary evidence. Unpopular (and unwise) decisions are often hidden in the spending estimates as this one has been.

Actually - yes I did read it. This now blocked editor was constantly removing content and did a legitimate edit before doing the same blanking. I was about to correct it but you beat me to it.Vrenator (talk) 12:09, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Wyatt Earp was listed as a GA in April, then went through a GAR and was delisted. It is now going through another GAN. Wyatt Earp is one of Wikipedia's most popular articles and is on an important and complex topic. The GAN is on an initial seven day hold while the reviewer checks sources. Meanwhile there is some work to be done on trimming back excessive detail, and on making the article flow more by reducing the amount of subsections. See Talk:Wyatt Earp/GA3 for more detail.

Hi Syrthiss, Scott Howser asked me to take over the task of creating a wiki bio page for Christopher P. Lynch, a notable series high-tech entrepreneur in US. Do you think I should create a new page with content that is neutral and verifiable, and have you help review it? Please advise on how to proceed. Thanks! --Mhong2011 (talk) 13:50, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
J Milburn is an active image patroller. He is not an uninvolved admin, and his close is disputed on both policy and practical grounds.
Let's have a proper close here, with a proper assessment, from somebody who does not have their own clear agenda and position in the discussion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jheald (talk • contribs)
In such circumstances, even if editing the summary was unorthodox per the usual local page ettiquette, I continue to consider it appropriate in the wider light of WP:IAR, for the page to properly satisfy its purpose. Jheald (talk) 19:01, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
The article titled Ed FitzGerald should not be deleted because it is the official biography for Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald. It is considered Public Domain and is referenced to his websites http://edfitzgerald.org and http://executive.cuyahogacounty.us. As an employee of the County, I have been given specific instructions and permission to use this biogrpahy in the creation of this page. Thank you.Cmm1991id (talk) 14:43, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
I'm unblocking AkibanTech, who you (appropriately) blocked as a spam-only account. The editor has pledged to completely avoid adding any information about his company, or other promotional information, and will change his username to one that doesn't represent an organization (the name he wants to use is "Select.Optimizer" because it's a database term and he works with databases). I just wanted to give you a heads-up, thank you. -- Atama頭 20:59, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi Syrthiss:
Yes, please. I would like to move that content to an article.
Thank you, Elcarvalho 21:01, 12 July 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elcarvalho (talk • contribs)
I understand now. I was able to change it into an article. I didn't realized that until I received your e-mail on this. Thank you very much! Elcarvalho 02:54, 13 July 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elcarvalho (talk • contribs)
Syrthiss: I was able to add "The Dabljus" as an article last night. But it has been taken down two minutes later. What else can I do here? I have been trying this since January 2011. The Dabljus is a pop music band from Boston, MA. They've on several newspapers here, in Europe and in Brazil, where they have been very successful in their musical career. What am I missing? Please help. Thank you. Elcarvalho 14:32, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Syrthiss, sorry about this. I hadn't realised that the talk page access was also revoked. Wouldn't have posted then. — Legolas (talk2me) 03:22, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi Syrthiss, I had mistakenly thought that since the reason for the page's previous deletion was still applicable, that the newer article was eligible to be tagged G4. Now that I've re-read the criteria, I understand that a previous deletion discussion is necessary. Thanks for your help. Gongshow Talk 15:13, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

I am complaining about the effor to delete the TripleA page. This open source game has an active community of players and developers. Take a look at http://triplea.sourceforge.net/mywiki/Forum to see how active it is. Why is it a candidate for deletion.--Roger J Cooper (talk) 22:04, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
