Help me - how can i improve other than the comments you have explained? The 100 or so proper edits i have done are little only because i'm in high school but can't have enough time to do stuff on WP. I'm trying my hardest to use the time i've got to make contribs to WP. Any other suggestions for RfA in the distant... future? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Juggernaut0102 (talk • contribs) 09:25, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have spent a lot of hours on that image of Glenn Strange to have it taken away. I put on so many reasons why it should be posted on Wikipedia. I had the correct template as well. Can you help? Thanks, Electric Japan (talk) 14:45, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As you probably know, 4chan is blatant nonsense, thusly the tag was thoroughly deserved, I am no vandal. You can send me mail with your answer to this. Preceding [[ Ixius (talk • contribs) 20:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, I do not think it is nonsense, it is nonsense, I am a member of 4chan and I know for a fact that the imageboards there are completely nonsensical and honestly it doesn't deserve to exist, but it does, and thats that.

I didn't think that was the tag for speedy deletion, I merely thought it would add a banner saying something like 'This Article is nonsense, viewer desecration is advised'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ixius (talk • contribs) 20:49, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And if the owners of 4chan were to lable it so? Ixius (talk) 07:46, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I tired again on the Glenn Strange tags. I don't know if I put the correct one on. If you can I would appreciate the help. I put in a lot of time trying this week.

Thanks, Electric Japan (talk) 11:58, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for the explanation. It can get confusing with all the diffrent choices.

I will make a test later today.

Thanks for the help. I am trying to upload it on to this site. Can you explain more on that part. Having some hassles getting it done.

I did upload an image from Flickr to the Wikimedia Commons.

I have tried many things. Time is being spent for the passion.

Removing your recent addition was probably a wise move. The 'fact' tag added by me was not really appropriate (even though the edit was not supported by references) but I didn't have time to find the one that says 'are you sure about this?', as there was more than a hint of Original Research about it. I apologise for the terse edit summary.

You have uncovered a very interesting point. Why did a loco designer chose inside vs outside cylinders? Maintenance is an obvious reason, but why, then, were so many shunting/branch line locos designed with inside cylinders? Even as late as the GWR 94XX and the Austerity tank, the Q1, etc -- if inside cylinders were so 'bad' (as you hinted at), why were these modern designs so fitted? Larger locos, with 3 or 4 cylinders had both inside and outside cylinders -- how did your comments relate to these? Was this a purely British phenomenon? (perhaps due to the restricted loading gauge?). Were all 'foreign' locos designed with outside cylinders? Etc, etc

Your edit really started me thinking (as you can see). Perhaps you can now see why my edit summary was 'terse' -- I couldn't work out how to fit all the above in.

As I said, this is an interesting point, and one which should be discussed in the article, once some appropriate sources have been found. I look forward to reading your findings... :o)

PS - having thought a little more about this, I suspect that the choice of cylinder location was dictated by the type of valve gear used. That could well be your starting point...

EdJogg (talk) 10:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the book I was getting it from (How Steam Locomotives Really Work by P.W.B. Semmens and A.J. Goldfinch - i realise it's not all that amazing000 and it seems the two inside cylinder arrangement was pretty much exclusive to locomotives using Stephenson's valve gear - although it's certainly possible that other valve gears were sometimes used, it seems Stephenson's valve gear was especially compact and simple enough that it was easiest to use. It apparently also conformed to the Victorian ideal of having no moving parts on show. The cylinder diamater was apparently limited to about 20in on a standard gauge railway. The problem of maintenance got worse as boiler sizes increased as there was no space to fit underneath it. The following is mostly speculation: I believe its simplicity would have made it attractive for later locomotives; although I can't be sure, I think it had a lower weight than other valve gears. I've also seen mention that inside cylinders were considered to give a smoother ride. I'm not really sure on the details of this stuff and I may very well be wrong about some of this but that's all I've seen about it right now. --Tombomp (talk) 19:27, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I'm really sorry if I'm blaming you for something you haven't done but I have a feeling your recent edits to Template:Africa topic have broken it regarding the second paramater - it appears at the end of every single link now. I don't really understand how template code works and I wouldn't want to revert your changes just at a guess. You can see the problem on pretty much any of the African politics pages and maybe other things to. Again, sorry if I'm completely wrong! --Tombomp (talk) 20:47, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing out the problem. It turned out not to be the template. On each of those articles, the transclusion call included an extraneous/unused/erroneous parameter that became activated when I added code to process a 2nd parameter to the template. I'm in the process of correcting the transclusion calls on the articles now (by removing the parameter). Should be done in 10 minutes. Again, thank you for the heads up! The Transhumanist 21:43, 8 May 2008 (UTC)  Done 21:51, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What the template does now that it didn't do before is allow a "suffix" (with space or without) to be added to each article name. Here's an example. Be sure to click on the countries - they have both a template-based prefix and suffix portion added to the country name. To replace the title of the template, I've used the template's "title=" syntax to set the title parameter, which the erroneous parameter mentioned above was missing. The Transhumanist 22:03, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is now the second time in 15 minutes that you've issued me with a spurious "vandalism" warning (the first was here). I appreciate that you've now reverted them, but repeatedly seeing "new message" banners thanks to your abuse of automated tools is beginning to be disruptive and irritating. Wikipedia is not a race; if you continue to use Huggle to make edits without checking them, I will remove your Huggle access. — iridescent 18:25, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know. I'm really sorry, I was trying to revert some vandalism on another page both times but it updated with your revert pretty much exactly at the time I clicked the button. I'm being a bit more careful now. Sorry again for the stupid edits and if you feel that you need to remove my Huggle access feel free. --Tombomp (talk) 18:31, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem - although I sometimes threaten it, I've only ever actually removed Huggle access once, it really is a last resort... — iridescent 18:38, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His brother Charles Clement Johnston also served as a U.S. Representative, and his nephew John Warfield Johnston was a United States Senator; both represented Virginia.

Thanks for that, having been an rc patroller from many moons ago (2006) I'm still re-learning the finer points of how subtle speedy deletion criteria, warning templates etc have changed, in future I will just stick to the first tag. (Was going to self rv but was beaten whlst writing out the edit summary lol) Benon (talk) 18:29, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Albert Ramos (rapper) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ged UK (talk) 19:40, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I would just like to apologise for my son's changes to the article based on Morda as some of it was sheer nonsense. I would like to say however, that a lot of it was true, including the claims of a popular children's toy being invented in Morda. The journeys of "Anf Butler OBE" are well documented and should therefore be allowed to remain on the article. Just because you see something as nonesense does not necessarily mean that it is. Would you like some scans of the journal that Anf Butler wrote and of the letter in the Guardian based on the claim that Sticklebricks are from Morda or are they too unbelievable for you? 88.104.181.11 (talk) 14:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't. It does at least sound vaguely plausible and doesn't contradict information already on Wikipedia and that that I can google up. Maybe it's some horribly insiduous vandalism but I don't really know. I don't have the resources to look it up, sadly. If you think it's wrong, you can always remove it. --Tombomp (talk) 19:30, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback can only be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you do not want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message on my talk page. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 21:20, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your advice, I forgot the codes for a smaller heading; just the help I needed :P.
The larger headings were a bit abused on that page! lol The sections aren't big and the titles are strangely-named...

I think we need to emphasize more on the private life and the "Myth" encircling around Francis Burdett and his early wife Sophia.
(Rumour has it that Francis chopped her arm off after discovering her cheating on him; with his best friend; which is why he re-married. I used to go to school at Foremarke and it's almost a recongized fact there; sadly I can't find any published work that describe it...)

Original message:

I noticed your edits to the Francis Burdett article. You might want to read Wikipedia:Headings#Section_headings]]; you can make smaller headings by using larger numbers of =s, which is preferable to making headings manually using the formatting tools.

Your Pal, Snoring HumayunMirzaJR (talk) 11:51, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to everyone who participated in my RfA, regardless of their !vote. I have withdrawn the nomination as a failure at 19 supports, 45 opposes, and 9 neutral statements. As has been written and sung, you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need — and what I need is to go back to working on our shared project. Not everyone has to be an admin; there is a role for each of us. After reflection, I feel I don't have the temperament to secure community consensus as an admin at any point, and I will not be applying again in the future — and hey, that's all right, 'cause I stay true to the philosophy that adminship is no big deal: I tried, I failed, and now I'll return to doing what I've always done. I have an extremely strong belief in the consensus process, and the consensus was clear. I will be devoting my energies to volunteering at MedCab and working up a complete series of articles on the short stories of Ernest Hemingway, among lord knows what else. Thanks again to everyone who spared the time to weigh in on this one. It was made in better faith than it probably seemed. Mr. IP 《Defender of Open Editing》 14:47, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I 'm also thankful to those who opposed or expressed a neutral position, for providing clear rationales and superb feedback for me to build on. I've set up a space for you to provide any further feedback or thoughts, should you feel inclined to.

LessHeard vanU (talk) 19:43, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that my language was over the top. I apologise. I didn't edit it because it got removed a minute later - I'd added my comment after it was archived, when it wasn't before I started, without being edit conflicted. If I'd noticed, I wouldn't have added it. I just found the thread pretty horrible in general and I still think David Shankbone's comments were incredibly spiteful, especially in such a public venue. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 19:50, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tom, there is a long history between Sandy and I that you aren't aware of, and Sandy said some pretty horrible things about what was a heartfelt memorial of someone who had been a good friend, but with whom I had a falling out but expected to be friends with again. My ire with Sandy is more than justified, though I understand you aren't aware of the years-long grudge we have had, primarily on her end. --David Shankbone 19:59, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just think it's not really appropriate to have this sort of thing in such an incredibly public venue as AN, over such a sad event. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 20:06, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it devolved. I am incredibly angry and offended by the way Sandy has characterized me and my personal memorial, to which I made great pains to be honest. It shows both our friendship, and our falling out. Anyway, any interaction between Sandy and I is likely to quickly spiral out of control, because we both have unbounding contempt for the other. There simply was no excuse for this sort of post on ANI, which one user described as "the shittiest faith ever", and completely invalidated my own emotions. Anyway, I just wanted to explain that to you. --David Shankbone 20:11, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 20:16, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My name here as well? Shankbone speaks for himself about years-long grudges. That may be his style, but it's not mine, and he rarely figures on my radar screen.

Because my participation as a Wikipedia editor has been questioned, and if I continue as I have in the past, I can expect future challenges as well, I have begun a standing RfC in my user space, at User:Abd/RfC. There is also a specific incident RfC at User:Abd/RfC/8.11.08 block. I understand that you may not have time to participate directly; however, if you wish to be notified of any outcome from the general or specific RfC, or if you wish to identify a participant or potential participant as one generally trusted by you, or otherwise to indicate interest in the topic(s), please consider listing yourself at User:Abd/RfC/Proxy Table, and, should you so decide, naming a proxy as indicated there. Your designation of a proxy will not bind you, and your proxy will not comment or vote for you, but only for himself or herself; however, I may consider proxy designations in weighing comment in this RfC, as to how they might represent the general community. You may revoke this designation at any time. This RfC is for my own guidance as to future behavior and actions, it is advisory only, upon me and on participants. This notice is going to all those who commented on my Talk page in the period between my warning for personal attack, assumptions of bad faith, and general disruption, on August 11, 2008, until August 20, 2008. This is not a standard RfC; because it is for my advice, I assert authority over the process. However, initially, all editors are welcome, even if otherwise banned from my Talk space or from the project. Canvassing is permitted, as far as I'm concerned; I will regulate participation if needed, but do not spam. Notice of this RfC may be placed on noticeboards or wikiprojects, should any of you think this appropriate; however, the reason for doing this in my user space is to minimize disruption, and I am not responsible for any disruption arising from discussion of this outside my user space. Thanks for considering this. --Abd (talk) 02:51, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to your tagging of Maor Levi for speedy deletion I found your actions abrupt and unsubstantiated. I am sure you will agree Maor Levi is on significant notoriety. http://www.discogs.com/artist/Maor+Levi Perhaps I was too speedy in making an original posting however i assure you more information to substantiate Moar Levi was imminent. I was left with little time to make additions before being tagged. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Trippie99 (talk • contribs) 15:10, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but a discogs listing does not show WP:Notability, which is required for something to have an article. Please read WP:Music for more information on notability for musical artists; the basic criteria is, usually, coverage in multiple sources by professionals (no forums, myspace etc). Tombomp (talk/contribs) 15:14, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The point I am trying to make is that the article certainly did not warrant “Speedy” deletion. It was no more than 5 minutes old and would have taken little more than a google search to realize it wasn’t worthy of “speedy” deletion. http://www.amazon.com/Anjunabeats-Vol-5-Above-Beyond/dp/B000PSJCL0/ref=pd_bbs_2?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1220541670&sr=8-2

http://www.mosdownload.com/artist/Maor+Levi/356022 Surely these satisfy the first criteria of having published worked from independent labels. It should also satisfy criteria 10. I was afforded little time to make any substantial contribution.

The label I cited in my original posting is clearly independent from the artist and is even mentioned on Wikipedia, which surely you consider a reliable source. Additionally the artists name MAOR LEVI is mentioned on the page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anjunadeep

Thank you for your assistance. I do feel very strongly that this artist deserves mention in order for there to be consistency with publishing of other Wikipedia articles--Trippie99

If the artist is signed to that label, then that might be enough. The best thing is reviews or something like that though. Do you have anything like that?

Also, if you are intending to work on something, then it's probably best to work on it in your user space eg User:Trippie99/sandbox, and then move it to the main article space when you're done. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 15:59, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Given the genre of music there aren't a lot of commercial reviews for the overwhelming majority of artists. So I am unlikely to find a review from somewhere prominent. Would something like this work however, http://www.vinylrecords.ca/maor-levi-shapes-anjunabeats-huge-trance-sensation-p-6162.html ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Trippie99 (talk • contribs) 16:08, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe. How much has been released by this person? People with few releases are unlikely to be notable enough to have a Wikipedia article. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 16:12, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You could try writing it again, including assertions of notability I guess. Not entirely sure if it wouldn't get deleted. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 16:37, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I cut the Bethesda Christian School article down to a stub and added categories. Sometimes an article which starts out as an advertisement can be salvaged and turned into a neutral article. --Eastmain (talk) 15:42, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is becoming intellectually narcissistic. Your instructions are useless. Not everyone holds a degree of a researcher.I give up even trying to submit anything. First you accuse me of self-promoting and then delete the following re-write because it does not have significance?.. The service I wrote about has thousands of registered members and a growth of 90% a year. Tell it to them that it has no significance. Perhaps you can provide a dried-up editor to help the literate commoners like me?

BTW how does one delete account on Wikipedia. I'm not coming back to waste my time trying to submit anything. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Slatecast (talk • contribs) 16:25, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that Wikipedia tends to be confusing to newer editors. The problem is that Slatecast doesn't appear to be WP:NOTABLE, which usually means coverage in third party sources. If you can show that it has been covered there, then an article can probably be created. If you want to work on a draft copy you can do it on your user page and then move it. There isn't a way to delete a user account, just stop using it. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 17:12, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Saw your message on my talk page. Thanks! 207.237.198.152 (talk) 02:49, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The reason I made that was (you can see in the talk page) the user young Trigg created a SPA just for editing the Sarah Palin article for five hours, 24 hours before her nomination, with truly a lot of information and with a strong biased attitude towards her. So, many people (me included) believe that the user is a campaign operative, specially when he acted with some users as if it was the first time it was editing in wikipedia (obviously it's not, look at the changes). "When another Wikipedia contributor asked gently if YoungTrigg could include page numbers to his footnotes from “Sarah,” YoungTrigg wrote back excitedly: “Thank you! I’m afraid I didn’t use the page numbers when I did the edits, so I don’t have them now. The book has a pretty good index, though, and I can look something up if anything I added was controversial. I apologize if I misunderstood the format"

You can see the discussión and the newspaper articles. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/01/technology/01link.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all&oref=slogin

So the name of the user Young Trigg has been used in many articles. And it has even appeared on wikipedia: Research on Palin: Following the nomination of Palin, at least 13 new articles reported on large-scale changes to Palin's wikipedia entry in the hours preceding the announcement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_image_of_Sarah_Palin

Personally I don't care about the user anymore. But since at least 13 newspaper articles mention the changes, with many even mentioning specifically the user Young Trigg, I felt that the discussión in his talk page (he said he retired) should stay so people can see what the discussion was about, specially when he didn't just erase everything, he only erased the comments (even the polite ones) who pointed out his suspicious (for me and others) attitude.

Still, if he has the right to do whatever he wants with his talk page, I'll just let him do as he pleases. Sorry for the bother. --Jaimevelasco (talk) 12:58, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I am aware of what happened regarding that user, hence why I had it on my watchlist and saw your change :) The thing is, we do allow all users, even IP vandals, to remove stuff from their talkpage, and the history can be used to check if they've had previous warnings or controversies or something. As the news story blew over a while back and the user is no longer actively editing, it seems a bit pointless to revert something he clearly doesn't want there, especially as it's all still visible in the history :) Tombomp (talk/contribs) 13:42, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tombomb,
First of all, thank you for help here!
My only experience with WP:AFD is Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Anna_Wohlin. The clock is ticking for for poor old Baxter Basics, but I am loathe to remove the prod tag. I'm nature's fool when it comes to wiki administrative policies. Do you know if there's a way to move from a PROD to an AFD discussion?
Thanks again! --Shirt58 (talk) 13:33, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It seems User:Phil_Bridger has already removed the PROD tag. There's not a need to move it to AFD; if the user who put it there originally thinks it really needs to be deleted, they can do it themselves (they might want to explain it better or something). Twinkle makes it easier to start AFDs and stuff: if you install it through My preferences>Gadgets, you get a tab at the top labelled AFD and have it automatically do all the tedious stuff.

Hello! Regarding your now-expunged statement in the NW RFA: "Personally, I don't like having somebody say "No harm done" and then use it as an oppose reason a month later." A month ago, there was no harm done -- the incident in question was an isolated aberration and a benign interaction. Today, however, the editor in question is under review and it appears this incident was not an isolated aberration, but falls into a pattern of problematic editing. If I had used that single incident as the sole basis of my opposition to the candidacy, then obviously I would be acting like a jerk. However, I believe I stated that this was my first impression of the candidate and part of a larger skein of concerns, so I believe I am justified in calling attention to that exchange. Personally, I am baffled by the focus on my input in this discussion -- it's not like my opinion is that important. Ecoleetage (talk) 13:39, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
