Hi there, generally professional sportspersons are considered notable, for footballers in the UK, teams that are within the top ten tiers of the league system are notable, and therefor most players within those teams. Regards [[User:Jcuk|Jcuk]] 17:15, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

== Tagging Images ==

Hi there.

I just wanted to give you a heads up that CSD A# are not criteria for image deletion, they have their own [[Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#Images.2FMedia|section of the policy]]. I labeled [[:Image:DSC00276-1-.jpg|this image]] as an orphan instead. Soon, [[User:Orphanbot|Orphanbot]] will come around and tag it for deletion after five days. Procedural nonsense, it could be ignore all rules kind of deletion, but this is more of a heads up for later new pages patrolling tagging. Keep up the vigilant hunt, happy editing to you.

== [[Template:Doosan Group]] ==

Hi Springnuts. I disagree with your A7 tagging of this template for speedy deletion. [[Doosan Group]] is clearly notable, and while I agree that [[User:Mirmo!]] has created a number of shaky pages, he/she appears to be interested in South Korean corporations in general and any concerns about their edits should probably be taken as good-faith notability problems rather than spamming. If you feel this template is not helpful or have another reason for its deletion, it could be listed at [[WP:TFD]].

:Having looked into this a little further, Mirmo's edits tread a very fine line of notability. However, as there is a wide range of companies featured in his editing, I don't feel he is an outright spammer. I do fully support his block for removing tags. I'll continue to look into these pages, so far I've speedied one and removed a couple of tags as inappropriate, 2 on templates and one from an article with a weak-but-visible claim to notability. I might ask other members of WikiProject Korea to get involved with some of the salvageable pages. <b>[[User:Deiz|<FONT STYLE="verdana" COLOR="#000000">Dei</FONT><FONT COLOR="#FF3300">z</FONT>]]</b> <small>[[User talk:Deiz|talk]]</small> 09:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

== Re: List of people who went to heaven alive ==

Hi Springnuts,
In spite of my comments, if I could think of a way to title it (and Noroton, who also agrees titling is a problem, is also trying to think of a way), I would like to see such an article! I've asked a pastor friend to look over the article, its talk page and AfD discussion to see if he has any ideas. There is a common thread, but how to title it? I have my doubts if this can be done. This has been a great lesson in WP process for me, especially that 'I like it' is not a good enough reason for an article! [[User:Killing sparrows|killing sparrows]] 14:09, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

==Toolbox==
I was bored, drinking, and rereading old talk pages, and I noticed that you had borrowed the toolbox from my userpage. If you want them, I edited it with the new user-warning templates. Feel free to steal the coes. Or not. Whatever. -[[User:FisherQueen|FisherQueen]] ([[User talk:FisherQueen|Talk]]) 01:57, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

==Your recent edits==
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] by typing four [[tilde]]s ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the [[Shift key]], and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button [[Image:Button sig2.png]] located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!<!-- Template:Tilde --> --[[User:SineBot|SineBot]] 21:09, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

It actually looks a lot nicer now. You did a good job. I fixed the external links so that the actual words are the link. I would also advise that you create a references list with all of the sources that you have within the article. You know how to do that? [[User:Silver seren|Silver seren]] 21:12, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

==Edit Conflict Strikes Again==
Wow, I had something really lengthy and worthwhile, and then got the old "edit conflict" process that wiped it all out. Short version... Go with Matthew 28:19 instead of Mark 16:15, teach the world, leave preaching to others; walk the fine line of describing instead of promoting; respect the copyright; I can write the cold, unemotional version for comparison purposes if you're worried that it doesn't sound objective enough. [[User:Mandsford|Mandsford]] 21:47, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
==Questions regarding "Christianity Explored"==

Would you care if I did an edit? You can always go to history and do the revert if you don't like any of the suggested changes. This would be more of a matter of style, and not just a spellcheck, but without any alteration of content or meaning, Technically, anyone can edit, but I like to ask.

The next big question is, what's the Emmaus Course consist of? I looked at the article about the Alpha Course, and the noted that CE, Alpha and Emmaus make up a trinity (right word?) of courses for study in the Anglican Church. Any cites to the Emmaus Course? Is it a three part series? (I'm guessing Alpha first (logically), Explored second, and Emmaus, naturally, at the end). Since it's a threesome of some sort, it makes sense that the three would be linked, but I didn't see a blue link for the third course. [[User:Mandsford|Mandsford]] 22:18, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

OK, I understand that now. My parents were Episcopalian, and I'm acquainted with the high mass, low mass, and whatever the in-between is called, all linked by the Book of Common Prayer and other constants in a system that permits each church to otherwise "adjust the settings". Very interesting. [[User:Mandsford|Mandsford]] 12:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
: I am out of town on a wikibreak, so I will have to get back to you to edit that. [[User:Bearian|Bearian]] 20:38, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

== [[Bad fiancé]] ==

Thanks for your speedy tag, however, OR is not a reason for speedy delete nor are "concepts" A7 material, but your tag did lead me to find that his had been deleted before and G4 is one of the best reasons. :-) Thanks for helping to keep WP clean. [[User:Carlossuarez46|Carlossuarez46]] 20:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

*Oops, I made an assumption: A7 refers to [[WP:CSD#A7]] (criteria A7 for speedy deletion: no assertion of notability) and G4 refers to [[WP:CSD#G4]] (criteria G4: recreation of material after deletion under [[WP:AFD]] - articles for deletion debate).

== Conflict exchange ==

Based on your comment in which you thought 'Conflict exchange' was vandalism, I decided to do some checking. I discovered I was wrong. The common term in telecommunications for a telephone prefix that allows a large number of simultaneous incoming calls is called a [[choke exchange]]. I have moved the page over, changed the internal reference from '''conflict exchange''' to '''choke exchange''' and I will put in some references to show where the term comes from.

== Spinodal decomposition‎ ==

Say, you had tagged this as original research, but it looks to me as if it is something real (due to the infamous google-test.) If you meant to say '''this article''' in particular was totally different from the concept, or else still disagree, you may of course readd some deletion tag. Otherwise I suggest we let it stay for a while to see if some scholars come by and find out if it is good or not. Greetings from a fellow RCP, [[User:Greswik|Greswik]] 19:59, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
:Yes, you are of course right, I didn't think of the {{tl|unreferenced}}. By the way, check out this quick way to write a templates name without actually invoking it (just write '''tl|''' in the beginning of it. ) Nice on the talkpages so we don't get the gnomes coming to the wrong place! :-)[[User:Greswik|Greswik]] 20:18, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

== Compass (charity) The Peasall Sisters ==

This charity is a non government organisation providing services to people concerned with the health and social impact of illegal drug use. It was set up in 1986 and has a network of agencies across the UK. These agencies provide services spanning the areas of health, social care and the criminal justice system.

Not found any evidence of notability yet - but they are big.

== [[Eurofighter_Typhoon#Costs_increases]] ==

Ok, just had time to check myself, and the reference already given ([http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200304/cmselect/cmdfence/572/57206.htm#a17]) says: "''The current forecast cost of Typhoon is £19,018 million, compared to £16,670 million approved at Main Gate.''" - that's likely what was meant by the original author. Anyway, I was just reading the article and noted how the paragraph made no sense (it says eurofighter cost increase compares favorably to f22) then changed it without own research or knowing anything about this topic, so I'll leave this to you :) --[[User:Allefant|Allefant]] 09:44, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

== UKYP ==

I find it both unnecessary and unrepresentative.

== Lara Pulver ==

Hello there, I've just gone bulldozing in putting new stuff on the [[Lara Pulver]] article, and think I've deleted some of your changes. Can you just have a look and check for me, I'm useless. Just as a note, your help with the article is much appreciated as I believe the motive for tagging it for deletion was malicious. Another editor had deleted all but the opening sentence of the article, so I restored much of the information also putting a message on their discussion page and subsequently they have tagged the article for deletion. Lara is a notable subject for Wikipedia and has done a number of major prouductions and despite certain peoples '''personal''' beliefs, even a nomination for an Olivier Award is a prestigious honour in the UK, being the equivalent of a Tony Award in the USA. Cheers [[User:Crazy-dancing|Crazy-dancing]] ([[User talk:Crazy-dancing|talk]]) 11:15, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

:'''Question''' - It seems there is support to keep the article now, so who makes the final decision and when does the deletion tag actually get removed? I don't pretend to know a great deal about the processes of Wikipedia, I just edit articles relating to things that I have personal knowledge about and hope that what I've added meets Wikipedia standards.

'''Lara Pulver''' picture. I did not take the picture myself, but just uploaded it from a copy I have.

== Thanks for the Welcome ==

Thank you for your kind welcoming message on my talk page. Your tips were helpful and I hope that I will live up to the quality demanded by fellow wikipedians. I hope this message gets to you as I find the communication means here a bit unintuitive, but I am sure I will figure it out.

Taking briefly up your offer of assisstance. Could you inform me how a wikipage that is red-flagged as "lacking references and source material" can be put to Wikipedians so that this disclaimer can be potentially peer-reviewed and eventually removed? I added academic references and sources to the entry on Susan Strange here that does satisfy referentiality to all the content provided on wikipedia in that entry (personal note: Susan Strange was crucial in my PhD studies at LSE).

Again thanks, and I hope I'll figure out the comm system here on wiki... I give it a 75% chance that this reaches you :-D

== Hi ==

Hi and thank you for the welcome to wikipedia. there is one question I have..I've asked others but it's somehow still hard for me to get, regarding uploading pictures to wikipedia. If I do find a picture from flickr that is licensed under creative commons share alike or whatnot, can I just upload it and link to the picture without notifying the user, or is it just understood that they allow their picture for use without asking since they already licensed their picture a certain way? I guess my question relates more to ettiquette than guideline but I just wanted to see how others might do it. Thank you!

Revision as of 20:29, 13 October 2008


    Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here.

    Before reporting, read the spam and vandalism pages, as well as the AIV guide. To submit, edit this page and follow the instructions at the top of the "User-reported" section. For other issues, file a request for administrator attention.

    Important!
    1. The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
    2. Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
    3. The warning(s) must have been given recently and there must be reasonable grounds to believe the user(s) will further disrupt the site in the immediate future.
    4. If you decide that a report should be filed place the following template at the bottom of the User-reported section:
      • * {{Vandal|Example user or IP}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~
    5. Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
    6. Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations unless the connection between the accounts is obvious and disruption is recent and ongoing.
