Welcome to my talk page! If you leave me a note here I will probably reply here, unless you specify otherwise or unless I feel it is important enough to "get your attention" via a reply on your talk page. If you came here to ask why I deleted (or took other action) on a specific page, please specify which article using [[article name]] somewhere in your message or else I might not be able to figure out what you are talking about.
Please note: new text goes under old text on talk pages. Thank you!

Hello. Yesterday, I attempted to add a new article on the film Edie & Thea: A Very Long Engagement and I received a message that a page with that title had been deleted by you on August 29, 2009, for being non-notable and lacking 3rd party references. My new article (offline) includes an Awards section with 21 entries (all with refs) as well as over 80 total citations. I'm not familiar with what happens next, but I'd appreciate you doing whatever you need to do so that I can add my new article. Thanks very much.

== Pre
ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.
Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.
We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.
For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Your edit summary says: "Undid revision 656197544 by ThaddeusB (talk) - my mistake, missed discussion the first time".
Hmmm. How about leaving a link to that discussion on Talk:Dzhokhar_and_Tamerlan_Tsarnaev?
Much appreciated. Thanks! Geo Swan (talk) 20:39, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ThaddeusB,
Can you please provide the evidence of his al-Modarresi's office "confirming that he contracted the virus"? Because the most I found was a voice note by al-Modarresi stating that he is ill, but no mention of COVID-19. It is worthy to note, that not everyone that falls ill in Iran, means they have corona. Anyways would appreciate if you can provide me with the evidence you mentioned in your edit summary.

Hi, you contested a PROD on this article back in 2012. I've nominated it for deletion (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J. J. Milan) and invite you to participate in the discussion. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:24, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:IPod Onion.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:00, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to activity within the next month.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:05, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, ThaddeusB. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Mordecai (cartoon character), a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.
If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 02:01, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi ThaddeusB,
I have edited Mecca page but the edit is reverted back with the message 'minimal importance & misplaced in COVID section' - This is really an important information for the Muslim community that is provided by an authentic source. And this is definitely related to COVID.
Can I get more clarification on this please? thanks

Thanks for uploading File:ShaolinMonkSuspendedOnSpears.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 16:50, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
