I'm letting you know that I've just put you on the whitelist on good faith. If it still works, you should not be bothered by the bot anymore. --Σ talkcontribs 23:14, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work on Jane Austen College, despite my over-hasty deletion nomination. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 21:02, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply] |
Thanks for the notification and the kind words. I'm just back from a week's holiday, and so have a lot to catch up on, but I'll try to find time to take a look at it. JH (talk page) 17:32, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have put a line about it in Disney Channel#Other services and voted to retarget it there if you feel that's more appropriate. Nate • (chatter) 09:10, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello The Whispering Wind,
I just wanted to let you know that it looks like DumbBOT, the bot that creates the new WP:RFD subpages, as well as posting the link onto Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion, is not functioning. This bot has not made any edits since November 23. I recently had to transclude Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2013 November 24 and Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2013 November 25 onto WP:RFD; they were never there until I added their transclusions. Also, the bot usually creates the subpages a few days in advance, and has not been doing that either; I went ahead and created the subpages up until December 1st.
I let the bot's owner, User:Tizio, know about DumbBOT's malfunctioning. It looks like it might have been shut off, but I cannot be for certain. Either way, I wanted to give you this "heads-up" in case the daily pages might need to be created and transcluded manually. Steel1943 (talk) 08:14, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You commented at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2013 December 25#Silcone Valley. That discussion was closed with consensus to retarget the Silicone Valley redirect to Silicon Valley. Your opinion would now be welcome about whether Silcon Valley should have a hatnote pointing to San Fernando Valley#Adult ednterainment, the former target of the redirect and only other notable meaning of the term. Please comment at Talk:Silicon Valley#Hatnote, thanks. Thryduulf (talk) 23:52, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Due to my sporadic Wikibreaks, after looking at some of the forums I had previously observed, call me crazy, but since I remembered that you actively participated in WP:RFD quite frequently, I had actually thought that you retired or went missing. I just saw your contribution list, which told me otherwise. So, I hope all is well; also, if you feel up to participating in WP:RFD again, I'm certain that your participation would be quite welcomed, especially considering the backlog that could use some good participation via votes, relistings, or NACs. Best regards, Steel1943 (talk) 14:58, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Whispering Wind! I'm contacting you because of your comment here. You seemed extremely confident that sources could be found to expand the article, but I'm having a really hard time finding anything but basketball scores. Could you help locate just one source that provides some information to flesh out/expand the article so as to help establish the notability of the school? Thanks. 70.235.84.89 (talk) 13:56, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Guide to abbreviations used in deletion debates, a page you substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion.

You are free to edit the content of Wikipedia:Guide to abbreviations used in deletion debates during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 18:31, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not going to oppose your closing of the redirect Olga de Kireef Novikoff, but your reasoning is not really correct. You give the policy "Therefore consider the deletion only of either really harmful redirects or of very recent ones.", and then go on to explain how this one isn't harmful; but you fail to recognise that it is very recent (two days old at the time of nomination), which is the second possible reason in your given policy sentence. When a policy says "Do A when X or Y", then it isn't enough to show that "X" doesn't apply, as long as "Y" is correct. I know that this won't change the outcome of the debate, but please try to take the full policy into account, not the one part that hasn't been argued. Fram (talk) 06:44, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I completely understand removing the child category from Durham, Arkansas. Most editors of these types of articles add both the parent and child. It's very helpful to readers to have a master list and county list. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:12, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
