A quick update

I recieved an email from another admin asking me to go through some of the Hollywood legends articles to see if I could reduce them and sub page them to make the articles look neater and more uniformed. I started doing that. If you don't mind and have a moment could you look and tell me what you think of what I have done so far. The biggest ones I have tackled so far is Bob Hope and Marilyn Monroe.

I believe that you unfairly mis-deleted one of the articles i wrote -- Read and Write Weekly -- which I believe is a worthy article. Could you please un-delete it?

What-if questions

Ok ole teacher, I have completed my what-if questions and they are ready for your review. I am sorry it took me so long. First off I didn't know they were there and second, I have been battling a really bad flu bug. So, I hate to say it, but wikipedia has not been my main focus these past two days. I feel so bad about saying that.. LOL Canyouhearmenow 14:16, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. You did indeed remove the copyrighted material from the summary unfortunately the same material is in comment section of the file history.

One link at a time

Hi.

I noticed you joined up as a member of the Lists of basic topics WikiProject.

I have a couple requests for you...

As you browse/edit Wikipedia, please be on the lookout for links you can add to the lists of basic topics (and each time you find one, add it to the appropriate list). The ones that need the most work are listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics.

You can also help build the set by adding or completing lists. Set a personal quota (build or complete one list per month, or per week, or per whatever time period you think you can handle), and keep up with your quota. These lists take from 3 hours to 8 hours each to complete, even if you know nothing about the subject to begin with. (The basic topics of a subject are pretty easy to identify). Even partial lists are useful for study and navigation, so don't be shy. Others can pick up where you've left off.

Links add up, so even if you add one link at a time, here and there, it will help. Please acquire the habit. The more people we get involved with this, the sooner the project will reach its intended scope.

RfA Nomination

Many thanks for thinking I would make a good administrator and offering to nominate me. I don't actually have any desire to be an administrator, and I'm not at all sure I would be a suitable person to either be one or be nominated to be one. At the moment, I find myself wanting to edit and create articles without having sufficient time available to do so. I think I must try to devote more time to editing and creating articles, as it would let my editing colleagues and friends down, especially within the Cheshire Wikiproject if I did not. The problem is that being an administrator would necessarily mean becoming committed to engaging in more administrator-related issues which would eat away at my editing time; I am already behind what I had hoped I would get done because of various other calls on my time, some unexpected, from family and home commitments. So, once again, many thanks for thinking I might be suitable, but I don't think it would be fair on my editing colleagues and the greater aims of the project for me to accept. Best wishes.  DDStretch  (talk) 09:41, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Peer review feedback

Hi, I noticed you have a request in at peer review which has not yet received any response besides the semi-automated script. Have you tried requesting a peer review from the volunteers list? Another idea is to review someone else's request (particularly one from the list of requests without responses), then ask that they look at your request. Hope these are helpful suggestions and help to get some feedback for your request soon, APR t 02:00, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question

OK, I understand the difference between the G1, G4 and G11, but are there learning pages that you can direct me to that I can learn more about these in depth. These are the areas you wanted me to go into and I truly do not want to dive in there and be hit by a speeding bus for not knowing the ins and outs of these workings. So, if there are direct pages for them, I would certainly appreciate you directing me to them. Thanks Canyouhearmenow 12:45, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I restored this page - it had been vandalized in January & truncated to the level where it appeared to qualify for CSD-G11. There was a rather detailed and well referenced page hiding in the history. --Versageek 18:15, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(related discussion - relocated from the top of your talk page) Bibliomaniac15, I am the University of Washington professor facilitated the creation of the wikipedia site: Sounth Maury Island Environmental Issues. I understand that the site was radically changed recently and there was a quick deletion action taken. I understant why it was deleted. One of the students recently sent me this link: http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:NQ50O_fTG0UJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Maury_Island_environmental_issues+maury+island+environmental+issues&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us&client=firefox-a

I would like the wiki site to be reinstated to its original form before the substantive and biasing changes. The original wiki was based on months of class work, visitors from both sides of the issues, and honest student input. Even if it's reinstated into the 2006 or early 2007 version, it would be acceptable to me.

What can be done in this instance?

Sincerely, Patrick Christie, Associate Professor, University of Washington, Patrickchristie1

Peer review idea

Hi, I have made a proposal that no peer review request be archived without some response. To aid in this, there is a new list of PR requests at least one week old that have had no repsonses beyond a semi-automated peer review. This list is at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog.

There are just over 100 names on the PR volunteers page, so I figure if each of these volunteers reviewed just one or two PR requests without a response from the list each month, it would easily take care of the "no response" backlog (as there have been 2 or 3 such unanswered requests a day on average).

If you would be able to help out with a review or two a month from the "no responses" backlog list that would be great (and much appreciated). Please discuss questions, comments, or ideas at the PR talk page and thanks in advance for your help, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:13, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Admin coaching

Alright! I have sensei. If you don't mind could we start after the Holy Week? On March 24 perhaps. I'm ok even if you're not a DYK specialist. --Lenticel (talk) 02:24, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Easter! ok we could start the admin coaching tomorrow.

Let me give you my WikiResume first so you can adjust your lessons:

  1. I have several DYK's and helped improve a few articles to GA status
  2. I have contributed to all Xfd's although my primary focus is Afd's
  3. I have no sanctions against me (bans or blocks)
  4. I have contributed to "miscellaneous" pages such as WP:ANI, WP:RfA, WP:RFC and WP:AIV though I do not focus my attention on these things
  5. The primary articles that I edit are Philippine based or Biology based
  6. I do gnomish works such as categorizing pages, reverting vandalism and assessing articles (Which takes up most of my time)
  7. I only have a few hours to spare in editing for now due to schedule changes in real life
  8. I prefer to call you teacher or sensei (depends on your preference) but not coach since it sounds like you are my fitness regimen adviser :).
  9. You could choose where you would do the teaching, my talk page or yours. --Lenticel (talk) 08:40, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sensei, I elaborated some parts of my answers in thetraditional questions. I looked into the present RfA's and it seems that my answers were of the same size and quality as those made by the candidates. What would be the next step?--Lenticel (talk) 09:28, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Hallowcvg.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Hallowcvg.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 23:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Code Lyoko

Given that Code Lyoko has been protected for about half a month, and Karaku is unlikely to budge on his position (or even return given his last comment), I figure protection is a counterproductive measure now. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 22:37, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How did I do it? Hmm, quite a mystery...

What I did was select the edits with the redirects and then clicked "invert selection" (at Special:Undelete). That restored the pre-redirect versions. Then I realized that I shouldn't have selected the edit with the CSD template, so I undid that one. Haha, don't worry, I mostly blundered my way through it (notice the mistake of redirecting it in the history). Nousernamesleftcopper, not wood 23:24, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Komodo Dragon

Glad to see someone else step up on that article; I think I tried tightening it up at one point but got sidetracked by the Cycluras or something. I don't feel comfortable enough doing a full peer-review, because I'm not the best proofreader in the world and I'm a bit biased against the toxicofera theory...I consider it junk science, but it's out there and it's sourced so...what can you do. The only sources I would suggest replacing are #3 and #10. The information cited by those sources is available among the others you already have and if not, both sources link to other more reputable sources; they're probably ok but look "self-published" and the komodo deserves better, and the FAC reviewers will puke all over you for that! Ref #32 (sign on the cage) might not hold up at FAC, either; again...that information is out there somehere else, I'm sure. I can help complete some of those other sources, missing dates, etc if you need me to; I might even have some additional literature not cited. Good luck...this will make a great featured article!--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 05:03, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the only thing in ref #3 I would really question is the size of (V. salvadorii) to my knowledge, it is only presumed they can grow longer than (V. komodoensis); I do not believe this has been proven, yet. I'm not as up on monitors as I used to be, but that was what made me check out the link.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 05:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question

I have tried to figure out how I can connect my wiki commons account with my wikipedia account. I cannot figure it out.

Canyouhearmenow 22:32, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK thank you! It is not so much for an RFA purpose as it is a way for me to watch what I am doing without having to switch between the two databases. That is a little tiring. I have been going through my personal photos and adding the ones I have taken so I can include them in articles that I have created. I guess that is the reason why I cannot find the info!

Have you seen The Austin Powers movies? You're like the guy in that movie that has to answer a question if he's asked it 3 times. Instead I just ask 2x and you change the article :). I think it makes sense to mention Varanidae because it is used later in the article. Maybe it should be mentioned in the initial sentence? example from cougar: "The cougar (Puma concolor), also puma, mountain lion, or panther, is a mammal of the Felidae family, native to the Americas.". This sentence sounds strange to me: "A monitor lizard, it is the largest li...". I think it's nice to have both mentioned but it just might take some tweaking to make it flow well. Thanks for all your hard work on this article, it will be a great addition to the FA animal articles. -Ravedave (talk) 23:24, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for deleting a duplicate copy Image:Devanagari INSCRIPT2.png! But there is a problem now: after you a robot commented out the uses of it [2]; so, since they were commented out, they can't be detected automatically at [3] and "redirected" to the remaining copy. (But I hope that was the only use; so no real reason to worry in this case.) But in future this might happen again.--Imz (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:MUSINST

Good afternoon, I marked WikiProject Musical Instruments inactive because their doesn't seem to be anything going on over there, but I noticed that you were recently active at least on the project talk page. I'm beginning work to bring Musical instrument up to FA status. It will be a long road. If you are willing to lend a hand, please see the Talk page of that article. I am trying to build a working outline and bibliography. You could grab a heading or two to work on, or maybe just add any good sources you know about to the biblio. Thanks --Laser brain (talk) 19:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent speedy deletion

I was reviewing the same image as you when you deleted it, except I came to the opposite conclusion so I was wondering if you could tell me why you deleted Image:incline.gif, I-1 only applies to the same file format doesn't it and the other image is a .svg not a .gif - Also the other image isn't on Wikipedia it's on Commons.--Doug.(talk contribs) 19:35, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heyo. You were lead to believe a few weeks ago that deletion of the article Son of Stimpy, a recreation a material deleted at AFD, is prohibited by Arbcom injunction. The injunction only applied during the duration of the case, which concluded before you deleted the article the first time. The article meets WP:CSD#G4, and if Catchpole wishes to restore it, he will have to demonstrate consensus to do so at DRV. Cheers, ➪HiDrNick! 19:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You did a fair bit as well, I think you're ignoring the fact that there are two "i"s in "Tzatziki." ;) · AndonicO Hail! 21:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time peer review

I started a peer review at WikiProject video games for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I'd appreciate any input: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Peer_review#The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time Thanks! Voyaging(talk) 01:25, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Bud! I wanted to let you know I have been doing some heavy work on mainspace with the Lucille Ball article and getting it ready for GAstatus. I went in a reformatted a lot of things. Would you mind looking at it and telling me what you think? I have nominated it already as I feel it is in good article condition, but I would like an opinion. I could brush up a few things if you see something. Canyouhearmenow 03:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have not been feeling very well. I think I had the flu and I certainly didn't feel like even looking at a computer! I have removed the bullets and put everything into a paragraph format. I hope that works. I also went through and polished up the reference section. I added a great deal of sourcing to this article and I sure hope that someone will appreciate it! LOL That was a lot of research. Talk to you later Canyouhearmenow 05:58, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you would give this a peer review, I would be honored :) It is sooo close to FA, I need prose help Judgesurreal777 (talk) 16:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re RFA

Hi Bibliomaniac15, and thank you for your kind and very unexpected offer to nominate me for adminship. This is not something I have sought, hence my surprise, but after taking some time to consider your offer I would be honoured to accept the nomination. Thank you once again, EyeSerenetalk 18:46, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
