Blatant vandalism in United Nations

I have crossed out this warning message because it appears to have been placed against the wrong user, as shown in this edit. If you wish to remove this message from you page completely, you should ask Pilotguy to do it, as the editor who left the comment. Otherwise other editors may mistakenly believe you are trying to hide a history of vandalism. Road Wizard 18:13, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Puzz3D

I've removed the dozen additions you made of "XYZ has been made into a Puzz-3D puzzle by Wrebbit"; these really didn't seem appropriate for the articles, especially since they were added in a single surge. Misplaced Pages is not an appropriate place for advertising a product. Shimgray | talk | 21:12, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Your user page problem

I have fixed the problem on your user page your reported at Misplaced Pages:Reference desk/Miscellaneous. If you need any other help, please let me know and I will see what I can do. Road Wizard 21:00, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Page blanking

This message is regarding the page Richmond HIll, Ontario. Please do not replace Misplaced Pages pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Misplaced Pages because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Thanks for contributing to Misplaced Pages! --Allen3  13:18, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Mr. Blue Sky

Hi, I have removed the CSD notice you placed on Mr. Blue Sky since "unimportant song" is not a criteria fro speedy deletion. Please review the available criteria at WP:CSD. Speedy deletion should only be used for obviously malformed articles, which I don't believe this is. The article makes reasonable claims of notability for this song and I think you'll have a hard time making a case that it should be a CSD candidate. You could try the Prod or AfD process if you still believe this article should be deleted, however my opinion is that it would survive those processes too. Best, Gwernol 22:23, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion

I think when you nominate articles for CSD, you should look over the listing and rationale at WP:CSD, if an article is "poorly done," I recommend putting a {{subst:prod|Put reason here}}. If you need anything feel free to contact me. Yanksox 13:46, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi User:Reywas92, can I ask you to look at the criteria for speedy deletions, where hopefully you'll realise that List of SSSIs in Merseyside is not a speedy candidate. Feel free to take it to AFD, but you should first understand the reasons why this lists exists in this form - see discussion on my talk page with User:Rodw. The invitation to discuss alternatives extends to you too. SP-KP 15:48, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

FIFA World Cup

Please accept my apologies for this accidental rollback of your edit : . Was trying to get rid of the fanatic OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... :P - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 21:42, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Dames of Malta

Hi!! Can you give me a hand. I know you (understandably) cited the page Dames of Malta for speedy deletion as it is empty. However, it is not really empty; there are currently 6 names on it.

However, I inadvertently created the category but not the page. Can you help consolidate.

Sorry to bother you.

Thanks!!

Schools of History

I'm not sure why you've tagged a stub with an empty tag. --Dweller 15:59, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

CSD

Seriously, have you even read WP:CSD. Speedy deletions need a reason. Dragons flight 17:21, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Spoeedy on LoPbN

I may have forgotten something that make it look mistaken. Watch this space.
--Jerzy•t 18:28, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
_ _ Your speedy request was unfounded. If the deprecation of six-level bullet lists and the violation of the style of the page you found and most of hundreds of others in LoPbN doesn't make that clear to you, you could read the extensive discussion at Talk:List of people by name for hints, or ask me very specific questions, without expecting quick answers.
_ _ It's all back as you found it. Your intentions are not in question, but good intentions should take you in different directions on LoPbN now that you have a hint that the issues it involves are not yet within your grasp.
_ _ Thanks.
--Jerzy•t 18:54, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
_ _ Your Speedy involvement in The Berenstain Bears and Too Much TV was appropriate, and has forestalled both the warning i intended, about reckless DB entries being blockable vandalism, and the speedy-tagging-skills remediation plan i was going to recommend to you.
_ _ Your contrib on Rockstone (disambiguation) was a good step; you may not know enuf yet abt WP:MOSDAB, or your assignment editor (wink) may have quite properly had other priorities in mind, but neither case reflects badly on you.
_ _ So i see explicit evidence of your good intentions, and plenty of signs that you're making efforts in the long run to fill the gaps in your WP-savvy. Keep up the good work, and keep improving.

Your New York City Subway edit

I see you made some edits to B (New York City Subway service). Those edits were unnecessary, and have been reverted.

Within New York City Subway articles, any reference to services should use the "NYCS" templates, such as {{NYCS B}}, {{NYCS Q}}, and so forth. In the first place, this is far more concise than typing ] each time. In addition, it guarantees that any reference to the Template:NYCS B service will be formatted identically every time. If you are already inside of the article for that service, the template is smart enough to replace {{NYCS B}} with '''B''', which displays as B.

A further advantage is that, should the Template:NYCS B service ever change, there is a very easy way to find all the places that refer to it. Marc Shepherd 19:45, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Moni Ovadia

You marked Moni Ovadia for speedy deletion. I wanted to let you know that I removed the speedy tag and expanded the article significantly. Sometimes it is better to add a {{notability}} tag on a problem article rather than a speedy so that other people can clean it up.

Irritating, but not really funny. Perhaps I'm too old.--Anthony.bradbury 16:51, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
