Misplaced Pages

Hi there. Please click here to leave me a message.

Linda Partridge

Hi, Linda Partridge is a highly notable scientist and a Fellow of the Royal Society, could you userfy the speedily deleted article for me (I have not previously contributed to it, so have no idea what it actually said) so that I could work on it? Thank you. DuncanHill (talk) 11:36, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

I would add that Fellowship of the Royal Society is a mark of very high notability indeed in the Sciences, so you may wish to reconsider some of your other recent speedy deletions. Thanks, DuncanHill (talk) 11:38, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Sean, I recently created pages for every living female member of the Royal Society which you seem to have speedy deleted. A Fellowship of the Royal Society (FRS) is the highest mark of distinction for a British or Commonwealth Scientist short of winning a Nobel Prize of Fields Medal. An election to FRS automatically implies the scientist satisfies (at least) criteria 1.2.3.5. and 6. of wikipedia academic notablity. Furthermore there are only about 70 living women who are FRS and probably no more than the same number of deceased fellows. So they are candidates for inclusion on rarity grounds also. Please therefore reconsider all your speedy deletions. Best Domminico (talk) 11:53, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

See here for a list of all living female fellows if this is helpful for restoration.Domminico (talk) 12:04, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

I concur: Please don't try to delete Fellows of the Royal Society, or indeed red links to them. As you will know if you try to take one of these through the proper deletion process (instead of bashing it with a hammer) election confers notability. I am not a dog (talk) 14:34, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

AN thread

I have started a thread at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard#Mass speedy deletion of Fellows of the Royal Society concerning you. DuncanHill (talk) 11:49, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

From a quick review, Jean Thomas (scientist) is notable, and the stub should have been expanded rather than deleted. Please reconsider other pages you have deleted. . . dave souza, talk 12:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I can vouch for Cheryll Tickle since she taught me when I was doing my undergrad! :) Have all these been restored? Tim Vickers (talk) 23:47, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Hello Mr Sean Whitton Reg. Montessori

Greetings, we had created an article regarding Montessori de Sto Nino which you had speedy deleted :( We have no intention of advertising here at wikipedia but then we were mislead on how and article should be created here. As you can see these article was patterned from other article here at wiki that describes the schools Mission, Vision and Objectives. I had been seeing lots of school article posted here at wikipedia check out List of schools in the Philippines If you had any chance on helping us on how the right way of creating an article at your database w/out breaking any of your terms of service then we would be very happy to do it :) Hoping for your response and more power!

Thanx

Thank you very much for reverting the vandalism on my user page. --Anna Lincoln (talk) 10:39, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

RE: Hello Mr Sean Whitton Reg. Montessori

Thanks for a prompt response..

Is there any way we could retrieve our deleted page Montessori de Sto Nino?We havent got any back up in notepad of the codes we made. We had spend almost half a day modifying the article.

It would be much more easier for us to edit the article to not look like a blatant advertisement. Thanks in advance :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Montessoridestonino (talk • contribs) 03:11, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

IP block you just did

Can you take another look at the contribs? There was only one recent vandal edit, and there's been a lot of constructive editing over the past few days.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 12:44, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I thought the same thing - there are a lot of helpful edits. However, the IP has been blocked several times for vandalism so I am thinking that a week should put that vandal off, and hopefully whoever is being constructive (I am assuming it is someone else from the same IP) will create an account which I didn't block. I shall add a note saying that an account can be created to the page anyway, thanks for flagging it up. —Sean Whitton / 12:49, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Sounds reasonable. Thanks!--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 12:56, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Why did you delete my band's page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sander Bastard (talk • contribs) 13:01, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Conscript band

Hi Sean

Hello,Sean. The edit I made to the Cairn Terrier article was not intended to be a joke. I was simply adding what I knew to the article. I am sorry for the misunderstanding. Have a nice day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.232.201 (talk) 14:03, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Huggle

I highly recommend Huggle if you plan on long term counter-vandalism work on Misplaced Pages. Twinkle is great for on-the-spot actions when you are browsing Misplaced Pages, but with so many Huggle users, you simply can't get very many reverts in, because they'll beat you to it nine out of ten times. The only thing in your way from using Huggle is a request for Rollback rights on your account. For me, I was told to get 500 edits with Twinkle in before they would consider me, however from what I hear different administrators have different views on where it starts. Hope to see you on the team. tj9991 (talk | contribs) 15:15, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Somehow I have always gotten by with just a Word page of customized commonly used warnings which I copy and paste. The automated editing can lead to editcountitis, and there is the aphorism "Haste makes waste." They can lead to inappropriate edit summaries, which lead to further drama. Last time I checked, the automated editing had not been made compatible with Internet Explorer. Edison (talk) 22:22, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Sean

Hey, I believe it would be best to remove the list of american terrorists on the page that is supposed to be listing North American Muslims, I was very offended as an American muslim, So it would be nice if you didnt revert the edit. thanks.

Changes to Russ Martin page being reverted

I keep getting nasty alerts when I edit the content on the aforementioned Wiki page. I am providing an informative summary of my changes and still the alerts.

This is an ongoing case and is not germane, at the moment, to Russ Martin. So far the accusations are unsubstantiated and continued publication of this misinformation regarding this case, still under investigation, could be considered slanderous and subject to liable. 65.66.121.253 (talk) 15:54, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Um sorry

I dont see a list of (insert religion here)criminals on pages listing famous people that follow the religion, the only one I see this for , is the religion of Islam. By the way call me Dan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.11.236.16 (talk) 15:56, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Ignorant

Hm, can you refer me to a more understanding editor, because I know im not the only one who has complained about this list, have you bothered to read this persons post on the talk section of the article-

1. The list was derogatory and is not something "notable" about Muslims as a whole, this page was meant for accomplishments and a sense of pride, not to put down a religion.

2. If you want to call those invididuals terrorists then we should open a page of "Christian terrorists" and include Bush, Charlemagne, and many others. I do not want to do this because it would be a POV war, and this is not what wikipedia is about.

3. I will however compromise if you decide to make a "terrorist" list for every other list of North Americans out there, that way we can have a balanced playing field, but to throw out a "terrorist list" on a page dedicated to Muslims in America, is more than islamophobia, it's inciting hatred and not necissary, nor does it pertain to the religion.

Lastly, feel free to make a wikipedia section entitled "Radical Muslims" or "Terrorist Muslims" and list names until your blue in the face, but to slam something like that on a list of American Muslims was very inappropriate. If you have a problem with this, message me. Haramzadi 06:36, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

I think if you people at wikipedia wish to keep this article, it would only be fair to create an article of christian terrorists/mass murderers and such.

We used huggle at the same time, so you warned me instead by accident.

Please remove my vandalism notice.

You saw 'em!

Thinking about protecting it if the vandelism gets out of hand? YBK

The right to remove content from ones own talk page

Per , please note that it is not improper page blanking, as your edit summary stated, when a user removes material from his own userpage, per Misplaced Pages:Talk page guidelines#User talk pages, which says "Users may freely remove comments from their own talk pages, though archiving is preferred. They may also remove some content in archiving. The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. This specifically includes both registered and anonymous users." If you place a warning, it remains in the edit history even if the user has read it and removed it, and an admin or other vandal patroller does well to look at the talk page history of the vandal. My practice is to restore recent earlier warnings which have been removed when I add an additional warning for new vandalism, to keep the collection together. But I do not think it is appropriate to smack a user, even a vandal with a warning when he exercises the right to remove warnings from his talk page. Thanks for your vandal-smacking efforts!

New account

I do. But sometimes I prefer to carry out intentionally helpful edits discreetly and quietly. --86.46.4.182 (talk) 14:53, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Unconstructive

How can reverting NUMEROUS vandalisms on a page be unconstructive? Rm994 (talk) 15:19, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Indeed it wasn't - I didn't feel Wiki is the place for asterisks, even if the term is potentially offensive ;o)

What will we do about a problem?

Hello. Thank you for welcome message. I want to talk with you about user who repeats selfish edit.

at http://en.wikipedia.org/Camel_spin ,

User "Wookhistory" not stop update of the information that is not right that she(he) made by oneself many times. Even if I correct it, they repeat themselves many times.

that is about Harding camel spin, About the name of a certain one spin, we call it Harding camel spin. nobody calls it yu-na camel in the world. However, User "Wookhistory" wants to decide official name the name of the skater of their country for the name of the spin and seems to be unbearable.

Is the protection of the page possible? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Isusubm (talk • contribs) 16:49, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Replacements, Ltd page

I noticed you deleted an article I wrote about Replacements, Ltd. I wrote the article as a customer and fan of this company. Their company history is rich with useful information and tidbits. The article certainly wasn't blatant advertising. There are many companies on this site, including some in the same industry as Replacements, and theirs haven't been deleted.

Please advise how you might suggest that I change the article in order for it not to be deleted.

thanks!

Help

I think I may need your assistance at the List of Days of Our Lives cast member page. I was wondering if there was any way we could block IP's from editing it. One particular IP, the one that starts with 74.216...has been editing for weeks without sourcing. While I do believe they are good faith edits, they are not following procedure. I keep leaving user talk messages, but it changes everytime, so I do not think they are receiving them. How can we help this person learn the rules if we cannot communicate with them? What are the proper channels to go about getting the page protected? Thank you so much. Rm994 (talk) 04:57, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome back

I read your enlightening post about returning to Misplaced Pages work; it's great to see an admin jump back into things after being gone for a while. I thought I'd mention a resource you might not be aware of - the Editor's index to Misplaced Pages, and note a couple of other things that have changed since you last edited in January:

• Misplaced Pages:Gadgets - an easier way to customize one's user account
• A new skin (Modern), available via "my preferences"
• Single signon across all Misplaced Pages projects (not logon, just synchronization of account names) (see "my preferences", "user profile" tab).

Enjoy! -- John Broughton (♫♫) 18:24, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

You know what? I'm just as bad as you are. I've always done them by hand. I recently got back from a semi-wikibreak myself, and have only recently started slowly easing back into things. If you find out an automated and easier way, please let me know. Jauerback/_dude. 21:53, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
