2009 Major League Baseball season

Can you please seek someone to kill off the redirect for the 2009 Major League Baseball season to 2009 in Baseball so that I can start the page with some basic information? (Such as schedules, new ballparks, etc.) Thanks in advance. NoseNuggets (talk) 3:15 PM US EDT Sept 18 2008

2009 Major League Baseball season still shows 2009 in baseball instead. Can we fix that so there is no redirect to 2009 Major League Baseball Season? NoseNuggets (talk) 4:56 PM US EDT Sept 18 2008

Re Kate Morgan

Thanks for your note. As the IP has left a message on my talk page too, I'll respond in more detail on the article talk page. EyeSerenetalk 08:57, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:07, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Your rollback request

Hello Kuyabribri, I have granted your account rollback in accordance with your request. Please remember that rollback is for reverting vandalism/spam, and that misuse of the tool, either by revert-warring with other users, or simply reverting edits you disagree with, can lead to it being removed. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 18:54, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

SPI

Where a case is already open at WP:SPI, and you wish to add more sockpuppet allegations, please edit the open case to add the extra users rather than opening an additional report. Having two open reports causes havoc! Mayalld (talk) 21:35, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Improving Fight

This article is currently not finished, and as I had foolishly applied no evidence of a true game upon the article I respect your concerns. The company's website is not shown on Google - that is correct - but it is an evidently productive site from a private perspective. I will now withdraw my article and upload the full, finished version A.S.A.P. Apologies.

Not-Final Final Warnings

Can we please not give "final warnings" to editors to whom we've already given final warnings? It makes us look a bit silly, renders the warnings ineffective, and gives potential vandals more opportunities to ply their craft. Thanks! --ElKevbo (talk) 16:57, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi Kuyabribri.. I need your help

Hi Kuyabribri,

Hope you are doing fine!

My name is Rahul, a total refresher at Wiki and I am posting an article on an Indian Singer, Ravi Shukla. But I need some serious help with formatting the article :(

I saw your message and please trust me, I didnt mean to break any rules of Wikipedia. But since I am total novice, I think I will be needing your help as you are experienced. Please give me relevant reference articles which I can read and make proper formatting of the article. Also, when am I allowed to edit the article next?

Looking forward to your response.

Regards Rahul —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sunny guttu (talkcontribs) 18:29, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi, could you help me?

Someone has nominated an AfD in an incorrect manner and as such it is swallowing my AfD. Look here: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/2009_March_3#Melisse. I nominated Melisse, and it's swallowed by Intelligence Quotient. It can be confusing. You know how to fix it? Thank you. Belasted (talk) 19:49, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your help. You are super. Belasted (talk) 21:04, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

The Dave

Hi. I have removed your PROD2 - they only apply to a PROD, and this article is at AfD. If you want to support deletion you can do that at the AfD debate. You may be right that it's not an intentional hoax, but if not they are remarkably innocent to think that posting three separate "references" which don't mention the term at all is a convincing thing to do. My impression is that it's something a gang of friends made up one day for a giggle, perhaps as a joke on their friend Dave. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 22:24, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Prod removed

You may well want to comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Functional Decomposition Methodology. -- 91.104.119.235 (talk) 23:17, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm fine if it's removed

Hi, this is Rochlafayette, the person who posted the "Pulaski Washington Letters." I just want to let you know that I have no problem if the page is removed, and I think the sooner the better. I understand it was a mistake to post it as an encyclopedia page. Thanks.

Rochlafayette (talk) 03:17, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for posting them on Wikisource. From the get-go I thought this content was important and useful, just not suitable for an encyclopedia. I have changed my recommendation at the AfD page from "delete" to "speedy delete" per criteria G7 of WP:Criteria for speedy deletion. KuyaBriBriTalk 04:30, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Functional Decomposition Methodology

It turns out the article is a copyvio - see my comment at the AfD and a post I have made at AN/I. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 16:32, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Umm. I was in the *process* of building that page when you prematurely suggested a "speedy delete". You might give a guy a few minutes next time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soul fire (talkcontribs) 7 March 2009

Re:Baseball references

Well, for my former players I use Baseball-Reference, and for my current players or Minor League I also use Baseball-Reference, with MLB.com. For my coaches I use MLB.com, but if there isn't a page for them on there I'll search them on Google and try to find something that looks reasonable. Hope this helps, Adam Penale (talk) 19:07, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group

Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.

I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!

Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page . Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 02:34, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Why not put a note on the AfD policy talk page about your Village Pump proposal?

You'd probably get better participation, and from people who are knowledgable about AfD. Great call on Dreher, by the way. -- Noroton (talk) 01:55, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

excuse me

I am aware of your position in the wikipedia comunity, but I kindly ask that you do not request useful information be removed unless you are aware of the direct intent or nature of it. I had an incomplete article that you had tagged for removal and I ask that you not remove my articles again unless it is of no relevance to any person(s). the article was summarizing an organization known to few but it's disbandin has made it public, I believe information reguarding it should be mad known now. if I'm not to publicize it, then another will...more likely one from the original organization itself. I can't stop the information that is made public, so I only assist in dispersing that information. please do not tag my articles any further.

thankyou.

I resent the suggestion that I have any "position" in the Wikipedia community. Yes, I have certain credentials that I list on my user page, but that does not grant me any "position" above anyone else. Your article was deleted (twice now) because:
  1. The article did not indicate the notability of the article subject, which led to it being flagged for speedy deletion.
  2. An administrator agreed with my assessment (and now the assessment of another user) and believed that the article did not merit inclusion.
If you truly believe the article merits inclusion, please see Wikipedia:Why was my page deleted? and THEN contact the deleting administrator (identified at Elibium). KuyaBriBriTalk 14:16, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

I am aware of you not being of any "position" in the wikipedia community. but with the assistance of another, the article would have been edited to provide nessecary information to complete the article. I am aware that it was not sufficient and that it was not up to the standards. I contest your desicion highly but if such information is not needed in the wiipedia comunnity then I assure that it will be found elsewhere for the public. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crimson8 (talkcontribs) 15:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

You can contest my decision all you want – I didn't make the decision to delete your articles; I simply flagged one, and only one, as meeting the criteria for speedy deletion. To reiterate what I said before, an administrator agreed with my assessment and deleted the article. When you recreated it (which I did not know about), another user who I have never come across made a similar assessment, and a different administrator agreed with his/her assessment. That's four unrelated users who believed your article met the speedy deletion criteria.
Don't single me out as the bad guy in all of this. I looked at your contributions and the talk pages of the other users involved in the deletion of your pages. You did not once contact the user who nominated your article for speedy deletion at the second go-around, nor did you ever contact the two administrators who deleted your articles. If you truly believe your article merits inclusion, I suggest you familiarize yourself with the reasons your articles were deleted, and re-create so it does not violate that policy.

TRACES

Good morning, I have seen you left a tag about a possible conflict of interest of the major contributor i.e. me and I would like to clarify that, is that because I am a vet or is there something in the text that worry you ? I admit a few words of hypothesis ( in reasons of failure) but it's clearly presented as speculation, however we can delete it as it has no importance. My other concern is, as you pointed it out, the primary sources, coming from the official journal of the UE and UE websites, secondary sources can be found in DEFRA ( UK official site) but with the same inconvenient I think and with no added value, except the addition of technical users manuals which have nothing to do here. I have converted the erxternal links in links to wiki article as requested by malcoma. I look forward to having a feed-back from you, Best regards, --Sancotraces (talk) 09:19, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I placed the COI tag because your username, which contains the name of the article subject, indicates that you have some close connection to it. People who have a close connection to the articles they write about are likely to violate neutral point of view, which is one of Wikipedia's core content policies. A secondary concern is that they may believe they "own" the article they wrote. For more on that subject, see Wikipedia:Ownership of articles.
After you left this message, I took a second, closer look at the article and am satisfied that it maintains NPOV. Accordingly, I removed the COI tag. However, there are some other issues, particularly that the article reads like an essay and that it needs to be written using prose. I do not have time to get to specifics now, but I will in the next few days. Thank you. KuyaBriBriTalk 14:51, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

About TRACES

Thank you for your advice, I will work on further on the part about other networks dedicated to food safety and I will try to write an article on the AFSIS network. I find very interesting the developement of these food safety web-based networks all over the world, and I hope people will find that interesting too. I have difficulties in finding second-hand sources, may be because it's a very specific field of interest.I am not an native english writer so feel free to correct my writing. Have a nice week-end. --Sancotraces (talk) 16:02, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Shelburne Museum

I have moved this comment under a headline to separate discussion threads. KuyaBriBriTalk 15:49, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi Kuyabribri

I have been asked to contact you by one of the post-graduate students currently on placement at Shelburne Museum. Some of our students (who are not staff or employed by the Museum) have seen that the information on Wikipedia about the Museum, buildings, artists and objects are either incomplete, incorrect or absent. They have asked me to provide them with existing published information from which to update the various pages. I have asked them not to include any information regarding our programmes, events, exhibitions, admission fees, membership - as I feel that this would breach the line of neutrality, promotion and advertising. I have looked at some of the pages they have created or editted and it is all from open-source published material. I would be particularly interested if you felt that the line of a neutral point of view was crossed.

I note your comment about one of the usernames they have used - and have asked the person involved to change it.

thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonathan.Wilson007 (talkcontribs) 15:27, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Your recommendations are sound, and none of the articles I have come across have irreparably crossed the NPOV line. The main Shelburne Museum article did have some advertising tone in the lead section, but I removed it. I did have a concern that the individual buildings did not have notability independent of the Museum itself, but upon closer inspection it appears they are notable enough to warrant their own articles. I'll continue to keep an eye on the articles and make little edits here and there, particularly where it comes to the Wikipedia:Manual of style (abbreviated as WP:MOS in my edit summaries).

Hi there,

I'm the Director of Communications for Woodside Priory School. I noticed that you rolled back my changes that I recently made to our school page on Wiki. Please do not do this.
