A Multiplicity of Things
Long time no see!!! It seems like forever, doesn't it? Anyhow, I have a number of things to say.
- I just saw that you like Pink Floyd. Rock on! Pink Floyd is Amazing!!!
- I was wondering if you could take a look at my userpage. I'm having a bit of a problem with that editcount template being overlapped by the Penguin Cabal (which doesn't exist!!) logo, and I was wondering if there was anything that could be done.
- Do you still have an autograph book?
- Have you tried Lupin's anti-vandal tool? It's pretty great (although I must admit that I've never tried any others)
I'm pretty sure that was all, but if I think of anything else, I'll tell you. Thanks!!! Cheers!!! Ninetywazup? ( r t ) sign here! 00:36, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
- For my first edit since October...
- Totally!! I haven't been able to get Another Brick in the Wall pt. 2 out of my head for months. :P
- You might want to ask on the help desk...it's surprising how much one can forget about code in a month.
- Nah, deleted that a while ago.
- I used it at a time, but I've been doing less vandalfighting lately, so I don't really need it. I think the script of it is in the admin helping script by Voice of All, so I guess I have it but don't use it much. — Malcolm (talk) 20:04, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- ForteTuba (talk) 14:11, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

"As you can probably tell from my contributions, I'm a deletionist." Wow, Malcolm, deleting the Main Page, you really are a deletionist. :D (Yeah, public terminals are problematic... it took me a while to realize closing the browser didn't delete cookies) --gren グレン 22:53, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Blip Blip Bleep
You're right, sorry for vandalizing your page earlier. (This edit is not vandalism) I just don't think you were right to delete the article Blip Blip Bleep I made. I have good sources. Tezkag72 (talk) 16:03, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- What are your sources? If you include them on the article, it may not be speedied. However, unless it really is a notable band, the page is likely to be prod'd or afd'd. — Malcolm (talk) 19:45, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi there! :)
As someone who's worked on D&D and/or RPG articles before, I'm inviting you to participate in our goal to both improve articles that have been selected to be placed in the next Wikipedia DVD release, as well as nominate more to be selected for this project. Please see the WikiProject D&D talk page for more details. :) BOZ (talk) 17:54, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of List of Paper Mario series characters
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of Paper Mario series characters. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Paper Mario series characters. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:15, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
hi, please give me the information I wrote on "hot cupcake". I need it, thanks.
Please, Let me know why the CreationWiki was deleted?
Thank you, Bruinfan12
Re: Alt text
Don't worry about it. I always thought it was an unnecessary thing anyway, and as far as I'm aware, while it is still encouraged, it's been dropped as an 'official' requirement. Anyway, it really wasn't very well advertised, I recall finding out about the same way as you! Apologese if I was at all snappy in my comments. Thanks, Gran2 21:34, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Happy Birthday (2010)

Page Deletion
Hey, my page got deleted by you for not having any real significance. How do I give it "significance"? Shaanbham (talk) 04:37, 30 October 2011 (UTC)Shaanbham
- Please read Wikipedia's guideline on notability for information on how to assert a subject's notability. Unfortunately, from what I've gathered (from a quick Google search), it seems unlikely that Leaders Against Discrimination has enough outside coverage to be considered notable enough to warrant an article. — Malcolm (talk) 04:47, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
The Flop House Page Deletion
I noticed you deleted my page on the Flop House Podcast was deleted for No explanation of the subject's significance, and I would like to known how I can fix this problem considering The Flop House is a true podcast that I am in no way related too in any way except for being a fan. I would also like to add that all of the facts on the page are true and the show is hosted by relevant writers Elliot Kalan and Dan Mccoy one of which won two emmys and hosted a talk show called The Primetime Kalan which featured celebrity guest Stephen Colbert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrcobbhouse (talk • contribs)
- I'm sure that it is a true podcast and that you're not personally related to it, but the subject simply isn't notable by Wikipedia's standards. — Malcolm (talk) 05:39, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- What does this page need to be considered notable. This show is extremely popular, so much so that it filled 92ytribeca's screening room at there live show. It has been review by major websites such as the onion AV club where a quote from the show was the top quote of the week http://www.avclub.com/articles/week-of-june-28,57384/ Gawker a popular website posted a posting about a pitch for a movie one of the hosts did on the show here http://gawker.com/381641/the-astoundingly-good-case-for-making-a-ziggy-movie I would very much like you to tell me how I can get this to be a wikipedia page because I know thousands of fans would appreciate it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrcobbhouse (talk • contribs) 14:41, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- I'd say that that the Gawker post is fairly trivial coverage, as it's really only a summary of a particular episode of the podcast. The A.V. Club post is a bit more in-depth, but you'd need other third-party, independent coverage to justify recreating the article. Are there any other sources that cover the podcast non-trivially? — Malcolm (talk) 17:55, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Would this be helpful? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliott_Kalan it is a wikipedia page about one of the hosts of the show which has a brief summary of the podcast — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrcobbhouse (talk • contribs) 21:35, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- That doesn't prove that the web content itself is notable, however: Wikipedia:Notability (web)#No inherited notability. — Malcolm (talk) 22:06, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

WHY DID YOU DELETE VINOD KUMAR
Why did you delete the page Vinod Kumar (footballer). I know it was nominated but you still should have looked around the article and saw that in fact Vinod had played in an official I-League match and that was stated in the info box and the section career statistics. --Arsenalkid700 (talk) 13:55, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. I was only considering the international level when I looked over it, but players who participate in the I-League apparently are members of a fully professional league, and therefore meet the notability guidelines. However, I request that even if you do have an issue with an article being deleted, please don't recreate its contents. If the subject is determined to be notable, either the deleting administrator or another admin will restore it. — Malcolm (talk) 17:22, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
Arts catalyst
is there any possibility you could leave us some feedback as to why this page was deeted, as far as i can see there was no reason for you to delete the page, feedback would be appreciated as simply deleting the page, WHEN INCOMPLETE as the non deletion request mentioned seems far from constructive to wikipedia users.--Jessie Megs (talk) 18:29, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- I already stated why the article was deleted: it did not meet assert its notability (see the links on your talk page). Again, if you can either find any secondary sources that cover the article or explain to me why the subject is notable, I'll be willing to recreate the article. — Malcolm (talk) 18:36, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- One of the next references to be added to the page along with additional content, would be a direct link to the Arts Council England website, stating that over the past 4 years, The Arts Council UK have funded the arts catalyst with over 800,000 pounds towards their works and experimentations, in terms of secondary rescources we will keep our eyes peeled over the rest of the evening.thankyou.--J.skudkid (talk) 18:47, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Also would the books referenced within the article entitled The genome incorperated, and Interfaces of performance not count as secondary rescources? as they are officially documentation of groups within the arts catalyst?--J.skudkid (talk) 18:50, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- I have now found an article in the guardian that can be used to support our article, will this suffice? --J.skudkid
- Yes, that would work. Its notability would be asserted then (though I can't guarantee that it won't be nominated for deletion). If you can give me a link to that article and I deem it to be valid, I'll recreate the article so you can add that source. — Malcolm (talk) 18:58, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thankyou very much, I feel this experience has helped me learn alot about what is credible within wikipedia, here is the link, i will be changing some of the content of the page so the guardian article is clearly linked to the content of the page. www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2005/apr/07/3--J.skudkid (talk) 19:11, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- No problem. I've recreated the article, so you can add that link now. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask. — Malcolm (talk) 19:20, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

A cookie for you!
Hello Malcolm! I hope you enjoy this cookie as an amicable greeting from a fellow Wikipedian, SwisterTwister talk 00:42, 31 October 2011 (UTC) |
Nice. way to delete the Space Engine page for no reason other than to satisfy your wikiego. The claim was that it was promoting is ludicrous, it was essentially a copy although reworded of another similar software. So much for "free encyclopedia" when cyber ego supposed editors like you delete on a whim anything that does not please them.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by MassiveEffect (talk • contribs) 02:29, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- Even if you don't think it was a promotional article, it didn't assert its notability. It served as a description of the simulation, but it provided no reason why it was significant. If you can provide such a reason, then you may recreate the article. —Malcolm (talk) 02:41, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- I figured it out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MassiveEffect (talk • contribs)
Arts Catalyst Page
Hello, Malcolm I was wondering if you could help me please, for our Arts catalyst page. We need to change the main title so the catalyst has a capital C but we are unaware of how to do this, now the page has been created. I was wondering if you would be able to either change this or explain how we could do this ourself thank you for your help --Jessie Megs (talk) 12:49, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, Jessie. It looks like what you want to do is move the page. Unfortunately, only "autoconfirmed" users (users who have had accounts for four days and have at least 100 edits) can do that. You're pretty close to 100 edits, so you should have that ability soon. For now, I'll move Arts catalyst for you. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. —Malcolm (talk) 12:56, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks Once again malcolm, you have been a real asset to our project, we would have been pretty stuck on a couple of occasions if it wasnt for you! we will send you a message (if you are interested) letting you know the grade we received for the project, thanks once again.--J.skudkid (talk) 13:07, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
