Why did you delete my article? I was creating it as a starting point so people could add relevant details as they came along. It's not fair to go deleting articles unless you have a valid reason. I've seen plenty of worse articles that you didn't go and delete. Richard.darren (talk) 12:19, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

You can hardly call a stub "brilliant," but thanks anyway. :) I was thinking about how to respond to their request for an admin, but after some time I figured that they wouldn't take anything I (a non-admin) said seriously, and an admin would be able to phrase it much better than I ever could, which you went ahead and did. That's a harder task than stubbing something, surely. ALI nom nom 17:27, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I came across an article entitled Car Configurator on "New pages" that had a "Speedy delete" tag on it. I rewrote the article to remove copyvio, added references, and moved it to Kia Ray which is the name of the car and is already redlinked in two articles. Is it ok if I remove the "Speedy delete" tag? Also, I don't know where the article's former name Car Configurator came from. I did not see that mentioned in any of the references. Should that redirect be deleted? Thanks, Xtzou (Talk) 17:54, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
Regarding the issue with the DBCS Article, the Administration have given me permission to copy an dpaste from the website of the school. If that is not enough, I will go to the Deacons and have them contact you. If still not enough, i will contact the foundation. I spoke with a lawyer who said that this is not a copyvio and I have the right of way. This is coming form someone who KNOWS the law.
Therefore, I ask you to take this into consideration.
You also called my tone inappropriate. You may think as such, but I have had a bad day, teachers and students alike harrassing me. Then one of the users just barge sin when he was not in it at all. That is why I sounded like that. I had good reaosn to act like that.

An entire section in Moses was deleted as including material from an earlier deleted article. One editor deleted the section, and two others endorsed the removal, although their rationale was questionable (i.e. "Not particularly high quality material.") I posted two RfC's with detailed explanations requesting comments on reinstatement here. As you were the editor who deleted the original article, can you comment on what the policy is for a situation like this? This brief section had about 20 cites, all of them reliable, old and new. Yet there are 340,000 articles now on Wikipedia without any cites! Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks. --Wikiwatcher1 (talk) 00:31, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

You deleted my suggestion to readers they use vicks vapour rub for curing toemail fungus, and asked me to reply if I disagreed.
There are 2 types of toemail fungus, the pharmaceutical industry sells several medical topical solutions, some which are stated to have a 70% chance of success. After one winter I spent on mexico, I noticed I had developed a toenail fungus and went to the doctor who gave me a rprescription which didn't work, and it just kept spreading, I repeated the procedure a few more times without positive result, then I went to the ER at the milwaukee VA hospital, and was wearing flip flops, I had given up, it just kept spreading, upon seeing my primary care physician about something else and he noticed the toenail diccoloration, he said to use vicks vapour rub, and promised it would end the problem and said not to tell anyone he told me to do it. I bought some vicks and the toenail fungus ended and eventualy the discoloration dissappeared. He said it cures both types, and you have to continue using it after every shower until its completely gone. There many people with toenail fungus whos toenails look terrible and its contageous. and vicks vapour rub actually cures it completely without any sign or scaring from the fungus, I haven't read about it but perhaps if you are interested you could find collaborating data to add to the cure, making it comply with what you consider is required to print something actually helpful to a tremendous amount of people, who like myself try the entire range of cures and are left with the fungus until their toenails actually rot off, when all it takes is to keep your nails and surrounding skin with the greasy substance for the few months it takes for the toenail to regenerate, its vastly cheaper than the topical solutions and unlike them it actually works.
Hey good luck in life as an editor as someone who is able to tell fact from fiction, and may the spirit of truth be the wind in your sale ha ha ha, hope you never have a toenail fungus, its all itchy and looks like hell, or not.
(Jackie cox (talk) 08:51, 6 June 2010 (UTC)) since I posted the cure around the net, and no doubt others as well, there is now ample evidence that may convince you this is a valid suggestion I googled it copied and now past it on this talk page, I am not making up all these confirmations, and its just page one of an endless list of people who found the cure=====but, not on wikipedia, because you deleted the data, I am thankful its a big internet, and there are a lotta people out there who actually do care about others

Hi John,
I hope you are well.
I recently submitted a company profile for Inhance Digital, a company I admire and will continue to edit. However, the title of the page is titled "User:Glamzilla/Inhance Digital." How can I get it changed to Inhance Digital, instead of leading with my username? I will continue to edit this company, however I do not believe it should be titled as such.

Re: User:Tvstarlondon/Mark Boardman

Also found a really nice article from a fashion expert who talks of be motivated by his enthusiasm for meeting and interviewing the stars.

I am curious about the deletion of the article on Kirkstall Valley Campaign.
Wikipedia claims that Closedmouth deleted it, but s/he says that it was you. Either way I would like an explanation for the deletion and a chance to read the original article to assess its accuracy or otherwise.
I was a Director of the Kirkstall Valley Campaign, which was a limited company, and I prepared much of the case for the UK High Court. I believe that the Campaign has considerable relevance for community groups who challenge established authority. Recent events have confirmed the validity of our original stance.
John Illingworth —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.177.31.236 (talk) 22:36, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Many thanks for your response, and the guidance about conflicts of interest.
The present article is very short, and lacks references.
The ten-year episode is well documented, and ended with a significant legal action which was covered in UK national newspapers and in specialist legal databases. It has more than local interest, because it shows that the reality of the British political and legal systems can be very different to theoretical "text book" accounts.
Very briefly, Mrs Thatcher's government established a series of Urban Development Corporations (UDCs) in major UK cities, which were supposed to bring business expertise to the regeneration of derelict industrial land. Many of these operated in secret, outside the traditional political structures. In Leeds, members of the public noticed that the UDC Chairman had not declared a £20,000,000 personal interest in the redevelopment of the Kirkstall Valley. This pecuniary interest operated through an offshore family trust. The Kirkstall Valley Campaign challenged the relevant planning decision by Judicial Review in the High Court, alleging bias. The Judge ruled that the Chairman had not declared an important financial interest, but there was insufficient evidence to prove that this undeclared interest had affected the particular planning decision being challenged. Costs were awarded against the Campaign which was utterly destroyed. After the case had been decided, the Chief Planning Officer for the UDC admitted that, shortly before the High Court action, he had selectively destroyed the enormous file which was necessary to establish a connection between the various events. He had been a principal witness for the defence. This highly relevant information was not revealed in the High Court, which wrongly believed that the missing file had been accidentally "lost" by Leeds City Council.
There is a voluminous paper archive covering these events, and I am looking for ways in which this could be made available to students of political history. It is unusual to have such a complete documentary record of a ten-year interaction between central and local governments, and the parallel operation of the commercial, political lobbying and legal systems. It isn't a pretty story, and I can well understand how the "conspiracy" theories arise, but it is instructive none the less.

When writing about subjects that are close to you, don't use your own personal knowledge of the subject, and don't cite yourself, your web site, or the subject's web site. Instead, use what is written about the subject by other people, independently, as your sources. Cite those sources in your very first edit. If you don't have such sources, don't write.

Hi, would you care to detail how you reached your keep rationale? In particular, could you flesh out how you weighted the rationales? Unomi (talk) 10:33, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
User:Snottywong/userboxes/ARSbackfire
First off, my apologies if I'm not following the appropriate protocol. As you can see from my page, I'm new to this. I'm only responding here because of a message i received from you on my page. That said, let me cut and paste what I wrote on Max Veers talk page, regarding your objections to the deletion of certain information from the page.
Here's why I deleted the section. Yes, he did get a DUI, but your insistence that that one event be listed as its own section, on the same level as the entirety of his career, as well as personal life, I, for one, find objectionable. For you to repeatedly place that one event as the single most defining aspect of who he is seems unfair. Is the dui more important than his role on LOST, or the awards he has won (of which there are no mentions)? According to the way you'd have his bio page structured, it is. Before you threaten to have people blocked from editing I would humbly suggest you review your organizational priorities. Respectfully, Deepblue357 (talk) 08:56, 20 June 2010 (UTC) Excerpted from the wikipedia NPOV page: "Undue weight applies to more than just viewpoints. An article should not give undue weight to any aspects of the subject but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject. For example, discussion of isolated events, criticisms, or news reports about a subject may be verifiable and neutral, but still be disproportionate to their overall significance to the article topic. This is a concern especially in relation to recent events that may be in the news. Note that undue weight can be given in several ways, including, but not limited to, depth of detail, quantity of text, prominence of placement, and juxtaposition of statements." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepblue357 (talk • contribs) 09:12, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
My point is not that this information did not occur, but rather that it must be place in appropriate context and appropriate weight - a one line mention in his personal life, for example. Please instruct me as to the appropriate method of disputing the weight of this information, and I will follow up. In the meantime, I will check other wikipedia pages of notable people who have received DUI's and see how theirs have been handled. Thank you. Deepblue357 (talk) 09:44, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Thank you -- it still shows the old reasons for deletion, but hopefully that will stop it from coming up in google search. I will check later on this week.

I am new to wikipedia and it is hard to know where to leave comments or content. As a Sri Lankan when I saw this authors page deleted with Shimeru writing lies about the author, I felt it was not fair. I don't think anyone should delete an article without due research and shimeru slandered rather than factually state the claim. I started an article listing the factual content verifiable by the sources and that was deleted. I don't think it is fair or right policy to state bad about someone and allow it to be listed all over the Internet when it is not true. It is malice not truth so please undelete the author and give a chance to those who can verify give verified material rather than distribute malice online. I thank you for taking the time to explain the wikipedia procedure and please help me to prevent wrongful and harmful content being released by poor research or hate. I don't know how to request review, if I did I write to that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muthuwella (talk • contribs) 14:13, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
If Shimeru didn't write the lies then who did? When I read the author name under deletion there was a long description of non-factual information saying that the person deleting the article was a Sri Lankan and the author is not "renowned IT or otherwise" etc. These are not true. There was slander as wrong information was given and hence discrediting the author. If these were not stated by Shimeru then who stated these? It comes under shimeru. People just can't write untrue things an ruin another person. Then I can write anything about anyone and get away with it. Since google search engines carry wikipedia postings it was not fair to keep untrue information. This author is extremely credible and I am from Sri Lanka, I listed so many credible sources to show this. I gave a list of credible sources in the article I put after but that was deleted. There are authors who don't have half the credits listed in wikipedia and it is not fair. I put the article again as the instructions said that I can add an article of an already deleted article if there is sufficient additional information. There is sufficient additional information. I thank you for letting me know the procedure to bring this kind of matter to the attention of an administrator. I will contact Shimeru and hopefully this sad misunderstanding can be solved as it is very upsetting to see a favorite author being unjustly harassed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muthuwella (talk • contribs) 15:51, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Negative links like http://www.rss.raw2an.com/wikipedia/143487-wikipedia-articles-for-deletion-anushka-wirasinha.html are appearing via google searches for this author. This is not credible but slander done through malice as enough credible info is there online for this author. Purposely negative things have been taken from non-verifiable sources in an attempt to slander this author and it is on the author search results. It is not truthful and I am urging wikipedia to prevent slander of this author in this way. Please help us in this as this is urgent and a very unfair situation. When credible verifiable information is there to prove otherwise it is not fair. When we added verifiable sources it was deleted. Please allow us to put a page with our links for this author or let us add the verifiable links as currently it is allowing slander to dominate despite us having info to provide. You have been very helpful and nice to our situation and we wrote to shimeru but shimeru is busy and this is messing up a perfectly credible author's search results as time passes on this matter so we ask your help. Also if there is any person we can directly write to can you provide that info as we can send a physical letter on this case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muthuwella (talk • contribs) 13:37, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
John,,
You are absolutely correct. The CSS is one year above graduate study. I am not denying that at all...what have I mistaken? It is not graduate study as you have to have a graduate degree to enroll in it. You have to show you have completed a graduate degree and have english profficiency to even think of doing the CSS. The only reference by the author to her qualification is "CSS Harvard" and that is correct and truthful, there is no misleading on this as it is CSS. She has not put any falls qualifications. Her qualifications state :Bsc (Econ), CSS Harvard, MBCS (this is the British Computer Society Membership and the MBCS is put when you are taken in as a member and members put that), MPNLP (Master Practitioner of Nuero Linguistic Programming). So, what is not right about anything put by her as far as her qualifications go? You said "This is a level lower than a master's degree, and nowhere near a doctorate or postdoctoral studies" .....yes, I agree. She has not stated that it is. She has not said she has a MA, Harvard or PhD, Harvard.....she has said "CSS Harvard"
Sorry I addressed it to you...I am not used to this so I keep hitting talk and writing the replies. I mentioned CSS because there was a very nasty message by the person who initiated the delete for this author article saying that the author by mentioning "CSS Harvard" as her qualification misrepresented her qualifications for vanity and self promotion. This was a very serious accusation and that link is still on the later pages of a google search (the one I sent you). Anyone who sees it will think the author is stating wrongful information or qualifications when clearly she has not in any way and I wanted to put on record that the author never misrepresented her qualifications ever...CSS Harvard is truthful. It is what she received from Harvard. Once that malice text is counteracted I am satisfied as I don't want to see an innocent person being dragged through the mud implying she is some liar and tring to boost her image with lies.
Ok, now, I need to go to the next step to get this reinstated. what info do you need? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muthuwella (talk • contribs) 21:50, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the time you have taken to do this. If she doesn't meet the notability criteria then many others on wikipedia that are there do not. I put IMTA because getting a "best smile" award is quite a talent. I saw in other wikipedia profiles simple links have been put like charities the profiled people have helped and organizations they are a part of. This author has so much she has done and I think it would be unfair if she is left out of wikipedia and not be treated as notable. There are so many reviews offline for her...in magazines, papers etc ...how do I include these? It can be scanned and included. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muthuwella (talk • contribs) 23:09, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
Here are some other profiles of Sri Lankan authors...please note that they don't have as much information as I am trying to provide for this article. There are reference to newspapers but no links to them, some have organizations they belong to...if I list it for this one there are over 100. So I do get a little insulted when the notability of this author is questioned. Most of these say cited in such and such a magazine and when you click on the link it goes to the magazine not their citation. If this is the case we will simply list all the endless magazines and publications this authour has been reviewed in. Also the initial deletion initiated was also extremely questionable and should not have been acted on. I saw other member reviews that state that the notability factor is present in her previous profile.

Hi JohnCD,
I am new to the Wikipedia community. I am starting to go through some of my favorite music and noticed that you deleted the Centricity music page. They are a mid sized player in the Christian Music industry and is the label home to Andrew Peterson and downhere along with many other prominent Christian musicians.
What was some of the reasoning behind the deletion of the page? I am happy to edit and site it if that was the problem.

Hello JohnCD, I read through your page regarding deletion of articles and did not find the reason you deleted mine. I think it says Blatant Nonsense, Page does not exist. First I will establish that Chris Quigley is in fact a Professional Canadian Comedian, who has worked for Yuk Yuk's for the duration of his career, which began in February 1992, and can be verified on the Yuk Yuk's Homepage, as Chris is an active performer. I added the link to Chris' website to verify, as requested by Wikipedia, that this is true. As a new user on Wikipedia, I may have done something I am unaware of that is wrong. I believed I had added the link correctly. You could check it for yourself at: http://www.quiglewiggle.com. If you can verify that Chris is a comedian, would you be willing to put it back on? Or, could you recommend how I can fix it?
Thank you for your time reading this, and if you send me a message back, I'm not sure how to retrieve it. I hope this can be verified as "not a hoax", and thank you if you decide to put it back on. My interest in having it restored is he lives with me, and as his girlfriend and entertainment manager, he won't let me forget about it! Cheers!Keeping Beezy (talk) 01:49, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

John, I referred to the debate you mentioned, but I see that she wasn't researched enough before the decision being made. Those who proposed deletion based their opinion on Google search results, while this is certainly not enough. She is the chief architect of ITIL v3, which is a very well known framework for IT Service Management best practices. Probably she doesn't have enough authored books or published articles, but still her contributions are significant and she received rewards for her works.
May you clarify the basis upon which such personal pages are added/deleted? Why that page was added first hand? After all it initially existed for valid reasons, and nothing in the original content was invalidated.
I just find it unjustifiable to suddenly discover it didn't worth posting !

Good morning JohnCD.
My name is Cameron Watson - I am from Canada.
I trust all is well and am pleased you took a second to contact me. I had heard from Mdd yesterday and he had let me know that he was on a bit of a break.
As you can probably tell, I am new to all of this and trying to get a better understanding of wikipedia and how I can make a contribution. I am hoping I will be able to translate my 25 years of Information Technology experience into something beneficial to the readership.
That said, I recognize there is much to learn in the wikipedia world. I have recently made some edits to the "software development methodology" article and have also composed a new article called "integrated IT methodology". My intent was to understand and apply the wikipedia rules as to the best of my understanding and believe both of these articles provide the users with more information.
I was hoping you might get a second to take a look at either of these articles and would appreciate any comments/suggestions you would care to make. I am still not certain what the protocol is to make the articles available for review (will try and do more research) so that I can make them available for others to contribute/critique.
Hoping you will have an opportunity to get back to me - have a safe/good weekend.
Thanks. Cameron.

Could you provide an explanation for your decision to delete the above article? McConnell is one of a handful of people in America attending Abu Nour University, helped establish the Baltimore branch, one of the top authorities/author on Hijama (cupping) and received advanced training from what many regard as the leading Sufi teacher of this generation Sheikh Nazim, with 2000 hours of additional training from another well known Sufi teacher Sheikh Adnan. Compared to the many other "Scholars" listed in the wiki pages, McConnell was trained in the traditional Sufi method, as verifiable through these living teachers. His notoriety is well established. The University training is easily verified, so how did you arrive at the decision to delete, and why was the deletion process even initiated before discussion, consideration for a new author, and a "needs more citation notice" applied? I once again point to Bilal Phillips as just one example of someone far less qualified and making much less a contribution as McConnell. There are several articles about McConnell. one from a leading reporter who was held hostage in Iran and has become rather famous as a result and ABC Foreign correspondence, a national news program in Australia. Please advise. Thank you. BeNothing (talk) 16:03, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
FROM BENOTHING TALK PAGE: Thanks for the good words. I do believe this article is recipient of bias and ignorance. I am concerned about people entering and judging foreign or unfamiliar topics that if reviewing something more familiar or common, they would not think twice about the subject and just take it as fact – not needing a reference for each small claim. Other articles more familiar to people are not met with such judgment, that is certain. Aside from all that, there are many references such as the news articles and McConnell’s invitation to study at Abu Nour (one of a few American candidates selected for such an honor). An honor bestowed to someone already proven to be a leader in their field. So the article has merit and should be consolidated at best, not deleted. There are perhaps two people in America proficient in Hijama, not cupping a practiced by acupuncturists. So we have removed the opportunity of some 6 to 9 million Muslims (depending on who you believe) from benefiting from accessing hijama services or knowing someone who is expert in this field. I find that remarkably ignorant to say McConnell is not noteworthy. I will copy this to the admin who opted to delete the article and see if we can get it reinstated. Thanks again, but no thanks BeNothing (talk) 16:18, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
No, I will respect your decission. I do wish to know if a living person is considered a source acceptable by Wikipedia. If President Obama acknowldged me as an expert in a particular field, would that meet wiki standards for notarirty? I am interested in your honest answer and I believe that answer is yes, it would constitute notarity. Sheikh Nazim in many circels is way above President Obmama. I am only asking because I wish to do more research, find more refrences and see if I can submit this later after reading up on Wiki requirements.

Hi John,
Just wondering if we might be able to work together regarding the deletion of the Inteva Products, LLC page. I have been doing some research on behalf of Inteva, which is a major automotive supplier. They've been having trouble with their page and I see that the material was flagged as copyright infringement since it was pulled from their LinkedIn Group. As a neutral third-party member, would you be willing to let me take a stab at recreating the page so that it better fits Wikipedia's standards? Given that several of Inteva's competitors have operating pages, we were just hoping we could find a solution that ensures Wikipedia's standards are met while also allowing Inteva to have a fair presence in sharing their encyclopedia-worthy information with the public. Thanks for your time. I look forward to your response.

There were only three participants, two of which were SPAs involved in editing the article, the other gave a "weak" keep and comment "There seems to be a lot of sources" probably without having a close look at these sources.

Hi JohnCD,
A while back I posted The Wilbur Curtis Co. under requested articles hoping for someone to pick it up and write a page on (As I cannot due to conflict of interest, which I completely understnad the rules and guidelines now.) What can I do to see a Wikipedia page created for the company? I do not know exactly how the request for an article page works but would like to know if there is anything else I can do to expedite the creation of a wiki page. Thanks for your help.

This page was deleted, and I see no reason. It had been mentioned on other pages before, and still is. It's a popular "creepypasta" story on 4chan's /x/ board. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.246.45 (talk) 20:55, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion reviewofE. Matthew Buckley. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Christopher Connor (talk) 01:41, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

How about if I include this as my job description?

About Me: My primary responsibilities are the care and custody of juvenile offenders committed to the Juvenile Justice Commission by the courts, to support the local efforts, and to provide services to at-risk and court involved youth. My primary charge is to protect the citizens of the State of New Jersey. My every decision is made with the understanding that it is my responsibility to maintain personal safety, promote responsibility, and build stronger communities. I emphasize accountability and contribute to programs that afford young people the opportunity to become independent, productive and law abiding citizens. In order to achieve that goal, I have undertaken diverse measures to address the multifaceted issue of juvenile justice. My contributions continue to provide a continuum of care for juveniles placed under the supervision of secure care facilities. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neojerzey (talk • contribs) 21:12, 7 August 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neojerzey (talk • contribs)

I actually mistakenly replied in your archive, but when I realised I undid myself[1] and I've copied your last bit back over here too, for context... Chzz ► 23:31, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
You are mentioned (in a nice way). Keep up the good work. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Toddst1_misconduct RIPGC (talk) 04:12, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Fair comment John, It was just my way of paying them a little bit of there own medcine for reverting my edits and consistently vandalising pages numerous times. I wasn't planning on an edit war, just thought I'd show him how annoying it can be when people purposley delete work or change them for there own amusement. But your right, I'll stop, and I hope they've learnt there lesson. Many regards Footballgy (talk) 15:37, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

What do you think about dual geometry?This edit claims that it's a hoax. I can't verify the article, but I don't really understand what the article is trying to say, which, coupled with the many legitimate uses of the term, make me hesitant to tag as a possible hoax. 98.122.178.110 (talk) 03:48, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello JohnCD, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of List of Norway's Next Top Model Contestants, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: the list of names does not appear in the parent article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Kimchi.sg (talk) 09:59, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
I noticed you blocked this IP user (208.92.184.171) last week, but he's at it again, this time at Psych (season 4). I'm not sure if this is the place to request such a thing, but could you intervene? Thanks. Kevinbrogers (talk) 04:16, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello JohnCD. I was contacted by a new user regarding the above disambiguation, which he created. Our conversation can be found here. He has yet to respond to my response, but since there are only two articles in the disambig, I suggested leaving hatnotes on both pages while moving one of the articles to Gordon Keith (currently a redirect) without disambiguators and simply deleting the disambiguation. Do you think that is a good idea, or would it be better to keep it as it is? Thanks, Airplaneman ✈ 19:11, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
FYI, I went ahead and speedy-deleted User:Alicia.stone101 over your earlier decline. I checked the page history, and while the speedy deletion template was indeed incorrect, the only editor to the page was the user whose userspace it was located in. Thus I deleted it as U1, going with the spirit of what the user intended rather than the letter of the template. SchuminWeb (Talk) 20:20, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
Please do not forget to userfy. There were no objections to my request to userfy to use the excellent early sourcing of the list to use later for attributed examples in charismatic authority. Andries (talk) 21:55, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
Sorry to disturb you, but the Indonesian misinformation vandal, who puts false info on Digimon and Little League articles, is back. This time, he's using 118.137.68.63 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). Can you block this guy? Need action ASAP. Thanks. BTW, WP:AIV is backlogged right now. - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 13:21, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
