Doodoocaca

edit

Hi. It appears that the article I created for the "Doodoocaca" Flash cartoon was tagged as a speedy by an apparent troll. I don't wish to exercise my administrative rights and restore the article, but I'm asking you to please do so. - Lucky 6.9 04:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

On second thought...

edit

...I'm going to save you the trouble and I'm going to restore it. I've read this guy's talk page. - Lucky 6.9 04:38, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • Thanks.  :)

Never mind.  :)

edit

I figure that it isn't worth sending my dogs into the fight for this silly cartoon. So, I'm just leaving it deleted. I just wish some other admins would have let me know that the damn thing was up for deletion. - Lucky 6.9 04:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Tofftech

edit

Hi, I see you have deleted the page about my company. I took great care in writing the page NOT to make it sound like a commercial (as that is not the purpose of Wikipedia, nor am I wanting a Wikipedia entry purely as a self promotional excercise).

There is also an entry (which is still live here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totttech

This ought to be deleted as it is a misspell of our company name, in all likelyhood created by myself in error, for which I apologise.

If the tofftech wikipedia page requires editting, please let me know what is on the page that is outside Wikipedia's guidlines - my intention was to create a page that told a little about my company, and the technology that my website uses. If the page is to stay deleted, I would like to know what the difference between the Tofftech wikipedia page and these pages by similar computer resellers:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komplett

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dabs

Many thanks

Andy

Hi, I see you have deleted the "Tofftech" page I put up on Wikipedia. The page was written to give Wikipedia an understanding of the word "Tofftech" and waht technology powers our website. I would like the article back up. At the same time, it would be a good idea to remove the "Totttech" page as this looks like somebody's idea of a joke. It wasn't put up by me.

If the "Tofftech" page breaches wikipedia guidlines, I would be interested to know what these pages:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dabs

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komplett

Have done which entitles them to remain.

Many thanks

Thanks for making it available. Do we get the discussion page too? This is just as important as it demonstrates how much effort some of us have gone to - to talk things out during the edit wars. Thanks! Pete K 15:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Adminship

edit

Hmmm... Sometimes I think that being an admin would make my work here a bit easier. I've been closing a lot of SFD discussions, but then I can't archive them because they need to be deleted. I'd like to do them myself instead of bugging an admin. However, that makes for a pretty weak reason for being an admin. I mean, I don't participate in AFDs, other RFAs, vandal patrol, etc. I'm really honored that you would consider me for adminship, and I'll have to think about it for a bit. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 16:07, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sure. Go ahead. Even if I don't make it, it'll be a great learning experience. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 23:01, 26 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

So, are you going ahead with this, Crz? Alai 15:00, 28 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

At 9-9, isn't that well into "SNOW" territory already? But you may be right, some 'daylight' between the two might be desirable, lest some people get their wires crossed. On the other hand, preferable not to ramp up the "nominee suspense" more than is necessary. When had you in mind? Alai 15:07, 28 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Federal judges template request

edit

Crz: Since no one else has commented that I have seen, your suggestion on the new name for the Federal Judicial Biographical database source template seems to be the winner. Unfortunately, I'm not enough of a template-space maven to be confident I could successfully move it to a new name and page without messing things up. Could I ask you to kindly rename the template to the name you suggested and then let me know so I can begin inserting it into the appropriate articles (and/or arrange for a bot to do so)? Thanks very much, Newyorkbrad 18:10, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I've reformatted it ever so slightly and added it to the first four (chronologically) First Circuit judges - let me know what you think so far. Newyorkbrad 23:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks!

Antagonist

edit

I don't know why you called me an antagonist. Daniel has some issues with POV. I don't make personal attacks, or engage in unilateral editing and reverting. I try to uphold Wikipolicy. I understand that Daniel has identified me as an antagonist. I think that's because he takes some of my opinions personally. The feeling is not mutual. But I resent being called someone's antagonist. That, itself, is sort of a personal attack. --Meshulam 22:39, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Not at all. When I think that his additions are according to Wikipedia policy, and when I think they are relevant and accurate, I support him. He just remembers the bad rather than the good.--Meshulam 01:35, 22 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

re: what are you doing up now?! anyways, i'm intending to nick any photos of the jpost, since i was on the phone to them and they told me I could so long there was an option to refer them as the source. I havnt figured out how to ref an image though. Chavatshimshon 12:17, 22 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wtvr, u call the shots. But its their CR allright, they dont have any right any more than wiki to use it. The pic is from Sharei Tzedek, but thats besides the point, im just suposing, but a sec from the web dep told me if i could ref images, it would be totaly ok. Get it?

Hi Crz, the log shows you deleted Personal development. I missed the vote, but anyway what is to be done with these 100+ orphaned articles? (plz reply here) 58.179.183.152 13:27, 22 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Your opinions on the Chelsea Clinton/dog photo incident

edit

You had written last Friday that you were going to check my sources and I presumed get back to us, but I haven't heard anything. Do you have any thoughts on this yet? It seems to me to be a very widely reported, long-remembered event, being discussed in multiple, well-respected news organizations well over a decade after it occured.

What do you think

edit

I have a question, and judging by how I think you'll give me an honest answer, I'd like you to take a minute to think about the following. I don't contribute much to wikipedia, I just try to help out when and where I can. Some of the things I do would be much faster If I was an admin/sysop. I don't have tonnes of edits, nor am I on wiki alot. What do you think I need to do to have a successful RfA?? I read all the "Guide to being an Admin" stuff, and like Jimbo said in 2003, sysop isn't a big deal, it's just extra tools. Ard0 03:56, 23 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image:Yoffie.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Yoffie.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Chowbok 03:56, 23 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello,

I'm writing to you because you deleted an article (Dolores morcillo) about my mother who is a painter. I don't understand why because there is NO commercial purpose. My mother is a well-known painter. She has sold a lot of paintings throughout the world, so I don't understand why her article has been deleted.

There are some examples I can give you : some painters from the same category of my mother have an article on your site. Is it because they haven't put any picture of their work.

Thank you.

Dear crz, I'm the creator of Dolores Morcillo's page. I deleted the AfD tag by mistake. As I created another article, which is more notable, I deleted it unvoluntarily. Sorry.

Let's hope his RfA passes. I had never run across him but was favorably impressed reading the supposedly uncivil archive.

edit

Unfortunately, this article was =not= a candidate for speedy deletion. Because an assertion of notabilty was made, there was no option, if one follows CSD criteria, but to take it to AfD.Even though I am a deletionist, and would unhesitatingly have voted to delete in an AfD discussion, I also believe that procedures must be followed.

This page has been recreated for a 2nd time by a user after it was deleted by concensus Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ivan Yaaro , recreated again by same user. Then deleted by you after I marked it for speedy deletion. Special:Log/delete&page=Ivan_Yaaro. I gave the user a link to the undelete process but (s)he does not seem to want to follow it. Not sure what to do next so I will leave it with you and ignore if you decide to do nothing GameKeeper 20:48, 24 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hey

Could you do me a small favour and check out the anonymous comment left on my talk page about you? And why are they congradulating me on becoming an admin? Ard0 17:42, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Take a look at something when you get the chance

edit

I went to leave a note at User talk:Brianyoumans and noticed it had been under attack recently by Terveetkadet (talk contribs) and then 205.237.53.91 (talk contribs), a Canadian cable modem user, possibly in Quebec -- from the wording of the remarks, they seem like the same person. When I checked out the IP address's talk page, I noticed that you had tangled with the person in the summer. I also saw another user, Pete Peters (talk contribs), had added a remark at the bottom of the IP's talk page that made it appear that he was the same person as the IP. Pete Peters also interacted with you last summer. All 3 accounts appear to have engaged in similar problematic behavior -- coincidence? Sockpuppetry? --A. B. 06:49, 26 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • I'm afraid that we cannot forward emails received through m:OTRS unless we have the authorization of the sender.
  • Photographer claims copyright on it and claims that the mass broadcast of the photo by the family of the deceased was an error.
  • In any case, we have no decent fair use rationale, furthermore this happened in the UK where fair use does not exist. David.Monniaux 18:38, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

We had no decent 'fair use' rationale. :-)

As for the Foundation's stance on 'fair use', we had a talk today with JWales and he's rather in favor of being very strict on 'fair use' images. David.Monniaux 18:46, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for coming to my aid in the talk page on Nareklm's page. I'm still new here, and learning the ins and outs of this stuff. I'm still in the process of adding things.
