Speedy deletion
editRegarding the article Image:Kojimawha.jpg, which you tagged for speedy deletion with the reason "patent nonsense", I wanted you to know that I have removed the speedy deletion tag. This article does not qualify for speedy deletion because it is not patent nonsense. If you still want the article to be deleted, please use the WP:IFD process. Thanks!

- I was just reverting some vandalism to the MGS4 article and figured I would do it right and list the vandalized images for speedy deletion while I was at it. Maybe nonsense was the wrong tag, but it's clearly a nonsensical image used purely for vandalism. If it doesn't qualify for speedy deletion, that's okay too. It's orphaned now, and unsourced, so it'll get picked up by another cleanup crew. risk 02:02, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
The song "Ridin'" has a refrain that says "Tryin' to catch me ridin' dirty." I created the redirect because someone might mistake the "ridin' dirty" part of the song as the name of the song, or consequently might think that "Riding Dirty" is the name of the song, as the lyrics aren't incredibly clear. If you think that the page should be a disambiguation page, that's fine, but please don't just clear the page, add a few links and a {{disambig}} tag. Thanks for the note. --MZMcBride 00:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the translation
editThanks for taking the time to translate from my request at the Reference Desk. It helped greatly improve the page for the band Unseen Terror. Guroadrunner 06:51, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
