Sarvavijnanakosam

Please provide explanation if you have doubt that if this Sarvavijnanakosam article should not be included. Don't just put a tag. This is the most important encyclopedia in the Malayam language. You have to explain why there should not be an article about this? Is this a subject area of your expertise? --Natkeeran (talk) 02:49, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

The article must assert the notability of its topic. Please see WP:BURDEN. It is not my responsibility to prove that it should not be included, but yours to prove that it should be. Please also refer to WP:RS. Having a single source for an article, which source is the topic of that article, does not meet the reliable source guideline. Additionally, your removal of maintenance tags is not permitted, please read Wikipedia:Tagging_pages_for_problems#Removing_tags and restore the tags.    Thorncrag   02:56, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
This is something, for a collaborative Wikipedia. Please read the article. It is a government site. This is not something I am trying to sell. If you want to put a tag go ahead. But, you are totally unreasonable. --Natkeeran (talk) 03:02, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Emergency Shut Off Button

 

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

I've been trouted!

Long overdue

'Vandalism'

My way of suggesting a full lock of all of the pages pertaining to the show Jersey Shore (TV series) due to their semi-constant vandalism. Just thought I'd make a short-lived joke in the process.

Thanks and all due apologies, G

Terribly sorry, not necesserily a good idea to do have done that. I aspire to being an admin so after re-activating my account, I just thought I could start out in a quirky, unorthodox way. Once again, I'm very sorry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Garrett123 (talkcontribs) 22:46, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Chase Fleisch

Hello Thorncrag, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Chase Fleisch, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Most likely the article was fixed since you tagged it. Thank you. Mr. R00t Talk 01:34, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Archiving

I am a bit lost. Where did you move my illusive archive? Trying to figure out how to archive in sections. Not doing well. Your help would be appreciated. TY Namaste...DocOfSoc (talk) 02:32, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I moved your page to User:DocOfSoc/Archive_3 and you can view all of the pages in your space using this link or [this link.  :-)    Thorncrag   02:34, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
...And I just fixed it because I moved it to User instead of User_talk :-O !!!    Thorncrag   02:36, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
Thank you very much! :-D DocOfSoc (talk) 03:02, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Black Dub page

I think Black Dub has enough 'importance' to be on wikipedia. Or am I wrong. I'm under the impression that they do meet at least one of the criteria. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ToddDavidonWiki (talkcontribs) 03:06, 20 October 2010 (UTC) --> Thanks for the reply! I'm totally new here (did some wiki before, but not on here). I don't quite understand what you mean by citations. I just made the page because some people asked for it on their website. I was also surprised nobody did it already. As 2 of the band members have an own page, I thought it would be okay to post. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ToddDavidonWiki (talkcontribs) 03:14, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Shelley Waggener and User talk:Actor info

Aside from notability issues, the article seemed to me to promote the subject, therefore the additional warning. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 23:47, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

GOOOH

I see you marked the GOOOH page for deletion requesting additional sources. I am the GOOOH Florida Director and I have tried TWICE to create a GOOOH Florida page, and suggest that all 50 State Directors create a GOOOH - "state" page as well.

The NATIONAL Goooh Organization is somewhat of a "new political party" but not in the traditional sense since the National Party has no agenda and each candidate in each of the 435 CONGRESSIONAL districts is able to define their own platform.

This is significant on its own merit, the State director is the "key leader" in each State who has the responsibility to find/appoint district leaders and partner with other grass roots political organizations to bring ALL citizens into the GOOOH process.... regardless of their position on ANY issue.

Please allow me to create a GOOOH Florida page. I am not a WIKI expert but I am sure that there are several in our organization that can take on the task of starting an appropriate page for each State. David.osborne1 (talk) 15:11, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kayleigh Bowers

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Kayleigh Bowers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Access Denied [FATAL ERROR] 00:36, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Your deletionism

Please take more care with what you do with respect to speedy deletion. Pressing delete proposal buttons without reviewing the case is BAD.

G12 does not apply. The bot is stupid. It would be better if it could detect that the page in question states that its material /comes/ from Wikipedia. Why is this bot including Wikipedia clones? TigreTiger (talk) 05:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Took your advise. Thank you for giving it. TigreTiger (talk) 18:07, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Too many hats are bad, but give me a fedora and...

Through some random clicking, I went from The Thing's RfA to User:Thorncrag/hats. I think that with a tiny bit of copy-editing and clarification, it would make an excellent main space essay (by the way WP:HATS is currently available.) By the way, I agree with you, despite my two hats and failure to acquire a third (out of misunderstanding, rather than greed). Sven Manguard Talk 23:02, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

I prefer Sinatra-style fedoras myself. ;-)    Thorncrag  23:05, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
