Your talk page

Since you don't bother to reply to anyone, why not just put a neon sign saying "DON'T TALK TO ME" instead of actually allowing comments and ignoring them? KellyAna (talk) 23:35, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

I assume you mean that I didn't respond to your comment reading "You dont delete fact just because the reference was placed in the wrong location. Do not remove content without GOOD reason."? If so, I'm sorry -- I was doing other things and didn't get to you right away. That doesn't mean I don't reply. It was flat out rude of you to assume that I never respond to comments on my talk page, just because I didn't get back to you immediately.

I removed the content about Adkins' injuries because I felt it was unnecessary to the article, but after reading it again, I think it is indeed necessary, neutral, and verifiable. I've been kind of out of sorts today.

In short, I welcome any further improvements to Trace Adkins' article; however, I do ask that you please show a little more civility in your responses. Thank you. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • 23:43, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

No, I mean based on all I've seen from your talk page, you never reply to ANYONE. Out of all the recently archived comments you didn't reply to one.KellyAna (talk) 00:09, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

He has replied to me a number of times, so I can't share your concern. -- Ļıßζېấשּׂ~ۘ Ώƒ ﻚĢęخ (talk) 00:12, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I second that, you see that he replied to the comments by User:NatureBoyMD (the most recent thread) on the user's talk page (User talk:NatureBoyMD). I see no problems with TenPoundHammer's conduct whatsoever. Malinaccier (talk) 00:14, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

About Carrie Underwood discography

In regards to your latest edit, I don't see why we can simply have "did not chart", because "or have not yet charted" is technically "did not chart". "Did not chart" is a broad umbrella which covers that term. σмgнgσмg 00:26, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I agree. Did not chart would apply to songs that haven't and / or didn't chart. A much better title. KellyAna (talk) 00:38, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Picture

Even the picture in the Trace Adkins article doesn't support your rhythm guitar CLAIM which is severely PERSONAL RESEARCH. Guitar is sufficient. Your changes are POV and PR. Cite definable proof or don't change it again. KellyAna (talk) 00:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Sexuality and Space

Hey Hammer, I've made a large revision to the Sexuality and Space article. It's very much not the article it was when it hit AfD and I'd like you to take a look at it and see if you feel differently about it now.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 02:24, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

notability

I was wondering if you think Я Для Tебя meets WP:NOTABILITY guidelines. If so, feel free to nominate it for WP:AFD. --Sharkface217 03:25, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that would work. Although I suggest you check the talk page of the article first. The question might be answered there. --Sharkface217 04:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

AfD sources

Hi, could you please go back and look at the supplied sources in http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Cubs_Fan%27s_Guide_To_Happiness? and see if that changes your mind?

Thanks, Hobit (talk) 15:04, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

bibliography pages

Just saw this on recent changes, and wondered if we tend to keep articles like this Bibliography_of_Carlos_Castaneda or if they're unnecessary? special, random, Merkinsmum 20:30, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

sure i would familirise with speed delete .

many thanks for ur message , sure i would stay familirised with wiki rules on deletion . now im changing my vote . regards--Pearll's sun (talk) 05:02, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

Not sure if you saw my reply on my talk. I hope you didn't take my removal of the SD tag as a question of your judgment or good faith. My philosophy or approach to AfDs differs from yours most likely. Although, I've speedied some in progress though too. I can understand why you were a little perplexed. It's really just a matter of WP:COMMON sometimes. Sorry for the mishap. Cheers dude. Wisdom89 _{(T / )} 23:32, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Help

Thanks for your support on the nomination of Carrie Underwood discography's WP:FLC nomination. As you know, User:I7114080 and I had disputes during the last nomination of the article for FLC. Now, he's at it again (although its only been one edit that I've undid) so far. What should I do? I'm trying my best to be civil here, but, my patience is wearing thin. I need your advice on how to approach this issue and user. Cheers. σмgнgσмg 02:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

He's at it now. I've just undid a few of his revisions. >.< Please help. σмgнgσмg 02:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm just wondering, what do we do now? Do we just sit here and wait or do we try to get him to discuss and negotiate what is best for the article? Because right now, I don't think he is willing to do that... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Omghgomg (talk • contribs)

Hey, thanks for your help. Not sure what the resolution might be, but it looks promising. =] σмgнgσмg 03:36, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Gary LeVox

It appears you and KellyAna were working on some country articles and she could use some help. There's a difference of opinion on adding a bit of trivia with a apparently questionable source. My opinion has been added (I'm against adding the information) but from there I really prefer not to be involved in biography articles. Could you offer an opinion? Thank you. IrishLass (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I replied to you on my page. IrishLass (talk) 20:24, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Craig Morgan

It's the top music story on allaboutcountry.com, was mentioned in today's Country Aircheck, and is briefly mentioned on musicrow.com's homepage. Eric444 (talk) 01:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

RfA unsuccessful

I am sorry to inform you that your RfA was unsuccessful. Please read carefully the reasons given against your RfA at this time, and I encourage you to try again at a later date. Keep up the good work! Cheers, Kingturtle (talk) 02:32, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

*facepalm* Sorry to see it went that way, Hammer. Some suggestions, if you don't mind them: Step away from closing AFDs, no matter the situation - you've shown a lot of people that you know how that side of admin work is done. That removes one target. Dunno about your system when you're nominating something for deletion, but I always run a Google and Google News search before I nominate, especially for CSD - it's better to err towards not nominating if it's uncertain... some maintenance tags help there. Matter of fact, take some time away from deletion debates, pick one or two of those articles you've written, and build them into GAs, or take a good one and push it towards FA. Take a deep breath before entering into discussions with potentially problematic editors - ask for help from someone else if you feel there's a problem. (I'm always more than happy to help out when you need it.) Finally... wait until at least August before taking the next nom offering.

More than 150 editors think you'd make a good admin. That's astounding. I hope this doesn't discourage you too much. Tony Fox (arf!) 03:58, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Re your response - assertions of notability can be tough to spot, I know - always err to the safer side and use maintenance tags liberally, is my best offering there. For the GA/FA stuff, I'm more than happy to help if you need advice - I'd love to help get more up to that level, but as you say doing it on your own can be a challenge. (I really need to nominate my GA project for FA one day...) Diamond Rio looks pretty solid as it stands - have you nominated it for GA at all? I'm almost certain it would pass easily. If you want some collaborative help with any article, just drop me a note, let me know what you want done, and I'll do what I can. Tony Fox (arf!) 15:53, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I've given you advice before, which you ignored. Let me try again. Tony Fox is right. Get some help from some admins that have pull in this project. There is always backchannel conversation about lots of topics on Misplaced Pages, and one is about RfA's. Look at some of the big name admins that opposed your nomination. I'm sure they have their reasons, which they certainly don't share with me, but when they vote, many individuals what their contributions, and may take a look at the RfA. You are young, and that in of itself is not a problem. However, you come across as immature. You need to tone down the drama, including "I'm on a wikibreak" which I think is one of the silliest things I see on this project. If you don't want to edit, don't, you needn't announce your reasons. If you want to edit do, no one cares. And really, Tony Fox is right. Build the articles to GA and FA status. I don't care if you wrote the article, or you adopt one. And finally, I want more than a few months passing before you do this again. Go for at least 8-12 months. Prove to everyone you're serious. When you come back too fast, I can tell you it just means you want the admin tools as goal in of itself. That's my advice. You are good for this project, but you are not ready for the admin label.OrangeMarlin 05:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Bad luck on the recent nomination on your fifth aFD. But, if you are opting for the sixth nomination, I suggest you apply for admin coaching. The admin coaching is just there to make you more 'admin' material. Good luck for next time. =) σмgнgσмg 06:02, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

• I'm really sorry about your RFA. You should carefully review the concerns raised there. That might help you in your next RFA. Keep up the good work--NAHID 10:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I think that was the first RfA that I'd seen join WP:100 in it's first 24/36 hours. Nice work! For the record, I have Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/TenPoundHammer 6 watchlisted. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 16:01, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

You clearly have the best interests of the project at heart, but it's worth thinking carefully about the oppose comments and seeing how much you agree with them. Keep yourself and your otters well! SilkTork * 20:02, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I think you're getting closer to your goal and this is just a setback. Just don't give up, learn from your mistakes and try again in a few months. --Lenticel 22:31, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

It's still good to know that there's so much support behind me. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • 23:06, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Shady Boy

Wanted a second opinion pre-AFD on Shady Boy. Chicano rapper (I watch that list) and at first seemed nonnotable. Googled for "Shady Boy" rap and found more interesting links, including downloads at walmart download service, etc. but still borderline. On these issues, I trust your judgement and experience more than my own. PHARMBOY (TALK) 13:35, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Your RfA

Hello TenPoundHammer. I am disappointed to know that your RfA was unsuccessful. However, more than 150 Wikipedians supported you. I "strongly supported" you. I hope will you continue to contribute for Misplaced Pages and I am quite sure that your next RfA will be successful. All the best. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 13:45, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I was also disappointed to learn that your RFA didn't come to a consensus. Just thought I'd drop in and wish you better luck next time. Useight (talk) 22:54, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I too was saddened by your RFA. IMHO, you've really grown and changed as an editor and currently you do as much work in administrative areas as some of the most active sysops. It's a shame that your RFA didn't pass. I do hope you apply for adminship in the near future (6 months, maybe?) and hopefully you will get it then. Even though I sometimes find myself in slight disagreements with you over such issues as the interpretation of the rules (especially in AFDs), I have come to respect you as an editor and I would be highly pleased to see you as an Admin. Good luck for next time --Sharkface217 04:49, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

• Like those above, I am sorry your RfA didn't succeed. However, you received strong support from many editors and I hope you will accept renomination at some point in the future. Your contributions considerably improve the project. Eusebeus (talk) 21:10, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Western Hills Mall

No, just super busy. Ironically, I was covering a high school baseball game yesterday that was about a block away from the mall. OK, time to get to it now. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:15, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

All done now. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 16:33, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Diamond Rio pix

I've got a few potential leads at the moment - might take some fancy footwork to get some pics released by a few of them, but you never know. That's for later, though, or I'm gonna get yelled at... Irony: I was at a show of theirs not two weeks ago, and could probably have fought my way up to the front for some good closeup shots... hindsight wins again! Tony Fox (arf!) 16:36, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

This picture finding thing is tougher than I expected. =P I found some on Flickr last night that would have been useful... until they turned up to be the wrong CC license. Still working on it, though! Tony Fox (arf!) 15:30, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Asafedi

Hi: Despite being deleted, this article appears to have been recreated by Asafedi. This user also appears to have accounts Asafedi_rules and Asafedi2.... I'm not sure exactly what is done in this case, so I throw the whole thing onto you... :) --Marjaliisa (talk) 23:56, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Hypnotize Minds

You seem to be a little more in touch with things that I don't consider to be music. I'm always suspicious of any project that involves "Yung D", because that was non-notable high-school student that Josh Gotti and 200 sockpuppets used to try to force into Misplaced Pages as a rapper. Anyway, now there's this article, and a website. I can't help but think that Yung D's presence is a hoax executed too well for an old man to prove. Care to give it a shot?Kww (talk) 01:18, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Yung D was on the triplesix site, so if he was vandalism, he was pretty well executed. He got removed from the roster today, after I looked and before I left you a message. Looks like someone went and redid the whole membership. I have no idea whether that redo was vandalism or cleanup. Thanks for taking a look.Kww (talk) 01:31, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes it is

Do you want another war? LOL. You can link external sources in an article if there isn't a Wiki article. I reverted your edits to the Allergy....blah blah blah link. It's allowed as long as it's not advertising which my link wasn't. Let's work together rather than fight. It's a good link to a non-profit that should have an article. Don't revert without discussion and don't use that bleeping TW thing. Gods I hate that in an edit summary. It SCREAMS "you're a vandal" and someone needs to rewrite it's opening paragraph. KellyAna (talk) 02:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Rayepower.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Rayepower.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:31, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Trilon article

I was trying to close the AfD for the Trilon disambig/article, and was wondering if you could take a look at it again and see if you stand by your original rationale for deletion. I'm asking because Dhartung tried to make the page more like a disambig during the AfD and I'm not sure if anyone noticed. Singularity 22:58, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the swift reply. Singularity 23:01, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

be more careful...

I'm not sure why you feel had the authority to delete an image I uploaded THAT I OWN and had released to the public domain! Peeps like you give Wiki a bad name.......... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drh20s (talk • contribs) 23:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

List of minor characters in Biker Mice from Mars

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article List of minor characters in Biker Mice from Mars, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not and Misplaced Pages:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Misplaced Pages or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

wording

Yes, Earthtried1985 is a bit problematic, but instead of posting on his page "Note, however, that I am very suspicious that your first contribution..." it might have been better to say "Note, however, that I am a little surprised .... " --paying attention to this sort of thing will help your future AfDs.DGG (talk) 03:10, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

GA review

I have reviewed the homosexual transexual article which is 1 of the 4 top priority articles. I put it on hold however, should it still remain on the big pink list or can it be taken off there. Realist2 (talk) 04:34, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Send A Message To My Heart

Please state your justification for making this a permanent stub. This single CHARTED, and when we last spoke in February, you stated that "if the song didn't chart" it wasn't notible. Now you're stubbing this one.

Your single handed editing in this case is unjustifiable. Please put things back the way they were and go back to play in another part of the sandbox.
