Request for adminship

edit

On this occasion, your request for adminship was not successful. I hope that you will continue your useful contributions to Wikipedia and may consider standing again in future. Remember, many of the editors who did object are just keen to see more evidence that you are can maintain your current standards of participation over a longer period.

Non-admin closures

edit

No, all you need to do is add the code to the discussion and that's it. Ten Pound Hammer(((Broken clamshellsOtter chirps))) 20:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

And please don't close an article until the page has been deleted. Ten Pound Hammer(((Broken clamshellsOtter chirps))) 20:47, 25 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

User:TenPoundHammer and his romp of Wikipedia-editing otters thank you for participating in Hammer's failed request for adminship, and for the helpful tips given to Hammer for his and his otters' next run at gaining the key. Also, Hammer has talked to the otters, and from now on they promise not to leave fish guts and clamshells on the Articles for Deletion pages anymore.

AfD nomination of People Known By One Name

edit

People Known By One Name, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that People Known By One Name satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/People Known By One Name and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of People Known By One Name during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Chunky Rice 00:14, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Response

edit

Like I say, don't let the "boo birds" deter you from contributing. A lot of the comments in AfD are brutal, and I'm as guilty of that as anyone else. On the other hand, the experience of getting booed off the stage inspired me to come back and defend other people's articles, to suggest improvement where it could be done, and to be (directly) impolite only if someone else threw the first punch. I apologize if I said anything ruder than usual. Sometimes it makes me mad, and then I have to remind myself that I'm letting someone I don't know aggravate me. There was one guy from Australia who pissed me off, and then I thought-- wait a second, he's in Australia, on the other side of the planet, and he's pissing me off? Pretty cool.

Prime prime numbers

edit

I think all numbers are prime prime. It seems very easy to prove by induction:

  • All prime numbers are prime prime.
  • Numbers that are the product of two prime numbers (4, 6, 9, 10, 14, 15, 21, 22...) are prime prime, because they can only be divided by 1, themselves, or other prime prime numbers.
  • Similarly, numbers that are the product of three prime numbers are prime prime.
  • And so on.

Thus, this definitions is completely pointless. JIP | Talk 06:08, 9 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

My reply here.
Actually, I read the definition wrong. It says "any other non prime prime number", not "any other prime prime number". This makes prime prime numbers equal to prime numbers. Proof: Any non-prime number can be divided by some prime number. Therefore, as all primes are prime prime, no non-prime numbers can only be divided by non-prime primes, therefore all non-primes are non-prime prime. This is not only as useless as the above, it also makes the article wrong. JIP | Talk 20:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Harry Potter roll-call

edit


Hi there. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Harry Potter participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. Your name has therefore been moved to a "potentially inactive" list. If you still consider yourself an active WikiProject Harry Potter editor, please move your name from the Potentially inactive list to the Active Contributors list. You may also wish to add {{User WP Harry Potter}} to your userpage, if you haven't done so already. Conversely, if you do not wish to be considered a member of the WikiProject, leave your name where it is and it will be moved to the Inactive Contributors section. If you wish to make a clean break with the Project you may move your name to the Known to have left section. Many thanks.

Inappropriate speedy-tag of article

edit

Hi, just a friendly reminder to check the article history before you tag an article with {{db-bio}} or similar. You recently put this tag on Brian Lewis, but didn't see that there was a perfectly notable article in place before it was vandalized. Thanks! Andrwsc 20:03, 23 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Typo

edit

Thank you for noticing a typo of mine in my UBX. I guess I need to form a goal to never have too many or too few typos in my self-created UBX. In addition to helping me fix a typo, your message reminded me that I know longer had two self-created userboxes; but, instead, three. TheInfinityZero 03:46, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Jackson

edit

With respect to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adre'anna Jackson, would you mind taking a look at Category:Murdered American children? It appears to contain several similar articles in memorial style. Being from Europe myself, I have a difficult time picking out the notable ones from that cat.
