Invitation

	Hello, MelanieN. You are invited to join WikiProject Food and drink, a WikiProject and resource dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of food, drink and cuisine topics. Please check out the project, and if interested feel free to join by adding your name to the member list. North America1000 20:49, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

• Not sure if I've sent you an invitation before or not. Check out the project! North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:49, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation, North, but I think I'll pass for now. I kind of have my hands full with other things. Anyhow you seem to have the "food and drink" subjects well under control. I'm amazed at some of the things you come up with! --MelanieN (talk) 14:19, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Aah, well, keep it in mind for the future. I remember you working on various beer-related topics a while back, so you seemed like a potential candidate for joining. Thanks for your compliments, which are nice and appreciated. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 14:23, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Yes, I am still the "San Diego beer guru" here. Not sure if it's because I love San Diego or because I love beer, but I can't resist the intersection of the two. But I'll have to leave it at that for now.--MelanieN (talk) 14:28, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

O.B. and the beach, pier, bars/restaurants there are fun. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 14:45, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

– Forgot to mention regarding your notion above of my supposedly having the ""food and drink" subjects well under control" that nothing could be further from the truth. The project presently has 34,340 articles under its umbrella. Check out the new March 2016 project newsletter for more info. Anyway, just wanted to mention that. Also, if you're interested, you can subscribe to the newsletter at the notifications page even if you don't join. I'll stop bothering you now.....Cheers! North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 17:20, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

That is a lot of articles. Just thinking about it makes me hungry. I'll give it some thought. Thanks. --MelanieN (talk) 17:32, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Deletion of Destiny Wrestling Organization

Trying to figure out why the page for Destiny Wrestling Organization was deleted. Can it be restored?--Adamtox31 (talk) 04:25, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Adamtox31, and thanks for your note! I'll reply at your talk page. --MelanieN (talk) 16:05, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

MelanieN There was recently this article on the company by Naratively and we have just had our page updated on Cagematch. Not sure if either of these will help with the cause but again, thanks for your help! --Adamtox31 (talk) 21:40, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Cordelia_Mendoza_(second_nomination)

Just an FYI that another editor (most likely a paid editor given their history) is essentially !voting for you by proxy on the aforementioned AfD. You may feel the same regarding the article as you did six years ago, but I thought you'd want to know in any case. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:52, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, Jamie, I'm on it. I am in discussion with the author and may comment later at the AfD. --MelanieN (talk) 22:41, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Protection for all

Happy St Pat's M. I saw this and it made me think that their are 31 other football teams that wish their QB's could be protected from J.J. as easily :-) Sláinte. MarnetteD|Talk 21:23, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

LOL! In this case it's J.J. who is getting the protection, and I suspect he gets mighty little of that on the football field. Thanks for the laugh. --MelanieN (talk) 21:48, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Speedy tags

Hi,

I'm not sure if you're the right person to ask, but as someone who's participated in my speedy removal discussions, can you look into the behaviour of User:Lifesavers2004 on Lagniappe Films and User_talk:Adam9007#March_2016. He seems to be under the impression that we're not allowed to remove them and has posted false warnings on my talk page. The user page also says he's an admin, which I highly doubt. Thanks. Adam9007 (talk) 01:47, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Pardon the interruption. @Adam9007: This administrator (me) has left a message on your talk page about removing the speedy tags and removing the notices. —C.Fred (talk) 01:50, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Replied on Adam9007's talk page. --MelanieN (talk) 04:55, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Barnstar

		The Barnstar of Recovery
		for your expert editing of the Ocean Beach Antique District article and all it entailed in preparation for the redirect as an alternative to deletion. AuthorAuthor (talk) 00:14, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

You're welcome. I'm glad we found a way to avoid deleting it. You (and I) worked hard on that article, and now at least the name - and the history - and some of the information - are preserved. --MelanieN (talk) 00:20, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

My sentiments exactly! Thank you again. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 04:08, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Bad idea. I do not agree. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.149.95.134 (talk) 05:06, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

FYI

Just saw this. Figured (if it's not you) you might be 'interested'. -- The Voidwalker ^Discuss 22:09, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the alert, Voidwalker. It's been dealt with. --MelanieN (talk) 21:19, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

So hey

What is it like pushing kkk viewpoints through your sockpuppet? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.132.165 (talk) 04:17, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

Allahdad Bohyo

I was just curious about the deletion of page Allahdad Bohyo.... can you undelete it.. Mr. Bohyo is the most notable liguist personality of Sindhi language...kindly undelete it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thinkali (talk • contribs) 20:33, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for your note, Thinkali. I can't find a page with that title - Allahdad Bohyo - except for one that was deleted in 2006. And I can't find anything similar in my recent deletions. Can you give the exact title of the page you are talking about? --MelanieN (talk) 21:52, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Wait, is this what you are talking about? This is a note you recently added to the talk page of the deletion discussion from 2006. That talk page hasn't been deleted, but it will be. That's not where this kind of request belongs, and it is ten years too late to prevent the article from being deleted. If you think there should be an article about Allahdad Bohyo you will have to write it. See WP:Your first article. You could start one as a draft, for example at Draft:Allahdad Boyho. The article will have to meet the requirements of WP:GNG by having references showing significant coverage or writing about him in books, journals, news, magazines, etc. If such coverage does not exist, the article will not be kept. --MelanieN (talk) 22:22, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

PVJ

Moved this from his/her talkpage - I think it's better to discuss it here. SQL^{Query me!} 11:02, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

I don't really seek a rebuttal. My only real issue with this whole thing was ever the length of the block, and how quickly it was applied from the AN/I posting. Which the blocking admin was willing to work on correcting - so honestly I don't see any harm done. I've been there before too, and I'll probably be there again soon. SQL^{Query me!} 10:58, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

@SQL: That's fine. The "length of the block", and for that matter my ANI report, were because the actions of the ISP, appearing immediately after the 48-hour block was imposed, appeared to show a classic block-evasion pattern. The other ISP activity, the stuff attacking PVJ, appeared only AFTER the 3-month block was imposed. But at this point I think the only thing that matters is his current behavior - and what it demonstrates about whether he learned anything from the 48 hour block. --MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

GAB's talk page

Please could you RevDel my edit, also? I've noticed the BLP vio appears in the diff... thanks in advance. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 16:44, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

You have already done it, it seems - thank you. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 16:46, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Yep. I had to revdel the intervening bot edit, too, since the deleted information could be read there. --MelanieN (talk) 17:00, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

That is a tad annoying. Once again, thanks. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 17:05, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi M. I hope that you are well. I am wondering if the other edit by that person is also eligible for rev/del? MarnetteD|Talk 17:15, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Done. Thanks for the notice. --MelanieN (talk) 17:20, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

You are welcome and thanks to you as well. MarnetteD|Talk 17:23, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
