I cannot tell you how embarassed I am about reverting the page back to its vandalized state. I have just been through a similar situation with another editor, and clearly need to be more careful about ''which'' versions I revert. My best guess as to what happened is either 1) both 68.50.239.168 and I tried to correct the article at the same time, or 2) I saw that the [Otherwise ungiven] edit summary for user 68.50.239.168 was described as "HOMOSEXUALS ARE GAY," I assumed that ''they'' had been the one commiting the vandalism, instead of correcting it. Though you probably already know this, it was as far as I can tell, anonymous user 58.165.154.122 who originally renamed that section. Either way, I'm very sorry for my carelessness, hope you forgive me, and thank you for correcting my mistake and bringing it to my attention. :) --[[User:Friginator|<font color="green"><font face="biondi">Friginator</font>]] 03:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC) |

This article may be badly written, starting with the spelling and punctuation of the title, and may duplicate material in [[Rome]], but how is it "unsalvageably incoherent with no meaningful content or history; it is patent nonsense." as your CSD states? CSD G1 does not cover "poor writing." Is there another basis for deletion? Thanks [[User:Edison|Edison]] ([[User talk:Edison|talk]]) 04:01, 29 September 2008 (UTC) |

I just can't believe it got into the paper in ''Edmonton''.

::Nah, I could totally believe this kind of thing getting international press if it happened in Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver.

Thanks for the note, explanation and edit. While I was flapping about I made some changes, went back and read your comment to me and re-edited the entry to read as you had suggested.

:Hey flashkick101. I agree that the GT is notable enough for a page, and if the style is re-written in a more neutral point of view with references it could be a great addition to Wikipedia. If you'd like to try again, I'm happy to edit the article and help out with references and style. -[[User:FlyingToaster|FlyingToaster]] ([[User talk:FlyingToaster#top|talk]]) 00:18, 3 October 2008 (UTC) |

== RE: GTbyCitroen == |

Thanks that would help. I was my first asttempt at an article so i wasnt all too sure on how to word it, lay itout, etc. If you could make 'more neutral' that would be great. In the cars section on uk.msn.com, there is a feature about the Paris Motor Show.

Please remember to mark pages as patrolled after review, especially after tagging CSD. Thanks. [[User:Jamesontai|'''''<font color="#000066">- Jameson L.

:Hey Jamesontai. Once I mark a page as CSD, the link to mark it as patrolled disappears. Is this not what typically happens? -[[User:FlyingToaster|FlyingToaster]] ([[User talk:FlyingToaster#top|talk]]) 17:58, 7 October 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::I just popped back over to take your talk page off my watch list, but I'll jump in anyways. I mark the page patrolled first, then apply tags. (CSD, maintenance, whatever). With Twinkle, you can apply the tags even from the page that comes up after marking as patrolled -- I assume that works with Huggle as well. If not, just hit the back button on your browser or reload the page. The only hitch is I have to make sure I don't get interrupted before I complete my tagging. If that's a possibility, I open the page in two different tabs in my browser -- one for tagging and one to mark as patrolled afterwards. |
|||
::The reason it's important is that if you don't mark it as patrolled it will still show up as unpatrolled and someone else will have to re-patrol it. People get frustrated after coming across a few dozen of those. :) --[[User:Fabrictramp|<font color="#960018" face="comic sans ms">Fabrictramp</font>]] | [[User talk:Fabrictramp|<font color="#960018" face="Papyrus">talk to me</font>]] 18:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC) |

This is just to inform you that an article in a foreign language is speedable ''only'' if it is an exact copy of an article found in a foreign-language Wikipedia. Otherwise, it should be tagged {{tl|notenglish}}. |
|||
Of course, if you understand a foreign language and see an article in that language that can be speedied under other criteria, those other criteria still apply. --<span style="background:#CC1010;color:#FFA0A0">''' Blanchardb''' </span>-<small><sup><span style="color:#A62428">[[User:Blanchardb|Me]]•[[User Talk:Blanchardb|MyEars]]•[[Special:Contributions/Blanchardb|MyMouth]]</span></sup></small>- timed 00:17, 9 October 2008 (UTC) |

Hi. Thanks for continuing to deal with Carrot18's antics. I noticed that they tried to recreate the article after it was speedily deleted. Carrot18 attempted to make "minor changes" to [[Myron Evans]], but this amounted to posting Evans' version of his CV. The BLP stabilized to a biographical stub some 2 years ago, following a lot of activity at the time. This editor is clearly disruptive and is ignoring the rules of wikipedia, as far as sourcing is concerned. Many thanks, [[User:Mathsci|Mathsci]] ([[User talk:Mathsci|talk]]) 08:04, 9 October 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:It seems that {{User|Carrot18}} is Myron Evans according to this edit summary.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Myron_Evans&diff=prev&oldid=244086154] There is an obvious conflict of interest here.
