I removed a cite you added in http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Edgar_Bergen&oldid=341537799 as it cites Wikipedia as its source. Madlobster ( talk) 18:44, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
The article Death of Aliza Mirza has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{
dated prod}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. The
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Hello Minimac. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Mastacraft, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There's considerably more sources than last time it was at AfD. It's not similar enough to delete as a recreate. Take back to AfD if necessary. Thank you. Ged UK 11:10, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
I have declined your speedy nomination for Rory Carson. I know we are all under the WP regin of the BLP extremeists but seriously is there some guideline that says any unreferenced BLP (even when not in the slightest bit negative and with a good easily verifiable claim to notability) falls instantly under WP:CSD#A7? I wouldn't be surprised in the current climate but I would have thought a PROD was more in order. Polargeo ( talk) 12:43, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
Hi, you prodded this page and tagged it for improvement. The author removed both the Prod and the tags. I have restored the tags but not the prod; the reason is because I think that it could well be merged with Adolescents and cartoon violence that has overlapping content. This is not my subject so I will leave it to you to decide whether to propose a merge or AfD it as you see appropriate. TerriersFan ( talk) 15:51, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
Another editor states I may have given you a warning that is incorrect. The article is deleted and I can't review it. I am willing to take responsibility for my mistake and apologize to you. Please accept my sincere apology. -- Morenooso ( talk) 05:20, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

So, blindly removing hatlinks isn't vandalism? I beg to differ. The user has made no other edits to the page but to delete the hatlinks. Hatlinks are to direct other users to relevant and related articles and removing them classifies as vandalism. I am not the one who needs to be careful and I resent being treated like I am a newbie when this user is a newbie and only made a handful of edits. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 05:17, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
To quote from the third paragraph of the intro on the article concerning The Beatles, "Four decades after their breakup, The Beatles' music continues to be popular." This sentence is not sources directly, yet that is a featured article. As such, why was my change, which is virtually identical, been reverted? TheStig 13:57, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on David Murray (Liberal Democrat candidate) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Hi Minimac, just a note about tagging BLPs as unsourced. This one, for example, did have sources; not good ones, but they do exist. It's better in a case like that to tag with "blpsources" instead. If it goes into the unsourced category, it adds to the pile we need to get through for prodding. Cheers, SlimVirgin talk contribs 08:46, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello Minimac, this is an automated message from SDPatrolBot to inform you the PROD template you added to Ken calhoun has been removed. It was removed by Kencalhount with the following edit summary '(no edit summary)'. Please consider discussing your concerns with Kencalhount before pursuing deletion further yourself. If you still think the article should be deleted after communicating with the 'dePRODer,' you may want to send the article to AfD for community discussion.

Hello Minimac; thanks for your notification of your creation of Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Hassocks5489, and for the nomination. I hope to have time to make a full response tomorrow; regrettably I am not in a position to accept the nomination at this time, partly because of real-life "time pressure" and mostly because the reasons described here (when I was previously considered for nomination) mostly still apply. I shall add more detail here tomorrow. Regards, Hassocks 5489 (tickets please!) 22:31, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Dawn Reed, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article talk page, image description page, image talk page, mediawiki page, mediawiki talk page, category talk page, portal talk page, template talk page, help talk, user page, user talk or special page from the main/article space.
If you can fix the redirect to point to a
mainspace page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you are fixing the redirect. If you think the redirect should be retained as is for some reason, you can request that
administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the page and state your reasoning on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

I'm trying to understand your reasoning at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Mikael Häggström. When I saw the answer to question 2, my first reaction was - "you didn't link to all your contributions, did you?" Because one answer that leaves me cold is the "all my contributions are equally valuable". But he didn't, he linked to a concise list of four articles. Isn't that exactly what the right answer should be? -- SPhilbrick T 15:57, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi. You are quite welcome to withdraw your comment but it is generally better to strike it instead of just removing it, especially if other people have replied to it. I've now done this for you. Best wishes — Martin ( MSGJ · talk) 13:41, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
RE: Coco Martin's birthdate. is moviezen considered a reliable source? I know that IMDB is not considered such for personal information and I have never heard of moviezen but, it[ [3] appears to be similar in its gathering content from users. Active Banana ( talk) 16:56, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

I spent 30 mins checking everything I could in that article. Every single aspect of it checks out - except for the actual subject of the article! If it's a hoax, it's a minutely well-researched one.
I removed your speedy deletion tag because the criteria for G3 specify that the hoax must be "blatant and obvious". I think we must admit that in this case it is not "blatant and obvious" even if it is probably a hoax.
I have added a {{hoax}} tag to the article, and will follow up with the author. I think there is also a question of notability on this article even if it's true.
Please don't take my removal of your tag as in any way a criticism of your judgement or your good faith.

I wanted to thank you for offering to nominate me for an RfA. I'm extremely flattered and your confidence in me means a tremendous amount. It's reassuring that my work's appreciated, particularly given some negative interactions I've had on Wikipedia lately. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I must decline at this time. Thank you again for the confidence and I intend to keep contributing. Shadowjams ( talk) 20:01, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for your edits! I am an employee of the Veronicas, and the information regarding the "early years" is irrelevant to the band being formed which is why we have opted to have it removed. We have included this information on both Lisa Origliasso and Jessica Origliasso 's personal pages so it is still readily available. We will be making sure " the Veronicas" page if formed into and remains a band page and that the personal pages include all information regarding the younger years and other personal information that is not directly to do with the band.

Hi Minimac I should have said something at the time. The contributions of 62.48.253.3 were extremely sick [5] but your warning on User talk:62.48.253.3 was a level 1 NPOV warning. It is good that you gave a warning but I just wanted to give you a belated bit of advice that in this case a minimum of a much stronger (level 3) warning was appropriate. Due to the fairly sick nature of the edits I blocked the IP for 3 hours at the time. If this account had been named and not an IP I would have indef blocked as a vandalism only account. If you see this sort of thing again please report to WP:AIV. Polargeo ( talk) 10:25, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
