A barnstar for you!

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar

*sigh* I guess a mug of coffee wasn't enough for you, eh? Well, it's not enough for me - I need a refill badly. But my mom is pretty "OMG WTF R U DRINKING" when she catches me with a mug of joe in my hands. If coffee doesn't fuel me (and keep me awake) when I fight vandalism, it's my own motivation and pride on keeping Wikipedia clean (and the laugh I get sometimes when vandals vandalize an article). I assume the same is for you, no? Well, whatever the case is, a shiny barnstar does motivate a lot of vandal fighters to keep on going. Unless they think barnstars are nothing more than a lame substituted template that serves no purpose whatsoever other than waste server space. If barnstars waste server space, isn't drinking coffee wasting coffee beans? I say a barnstar is a pretty good deal. Now if only I could get a new coffee machine...

Thanks K6ka! I think barnstars and WikiLove contribute a great deal toward an editors' motivation. They promote the collegial spirit of the wiki and ensure hard work does not go unnoticed. I am no different. I appreciate you taking the time to acknowledge my efforts toward fighting vandalism, as I do find it very encouraging. Cheers and warm regards :) — MusikAnimal ^talk 22:34, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Professor Govinda KC

Hi MusikAnimal,

I was surprised that the article on Professor Govinda K.C. (which was created two days ago) has been blanked. Previously, it had been deleted and moved to Govinda K.C. without redirect. Because this is a common name in Nepal, I tried a redirect from the professor page to the link. Now, I cannot even find the original file. Could you please help me with this?

Thanks Rabindahal (talk) 18:12, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm going to guess that perhaps it was deleted as well. I'm not aware of a way to search for deleted pages, at least without having the admin right (which I do not). You could try different spellings, etc, with the search. The search is pretty good, so if you don't see it, it's probably not there :( Hope this helps!

Nevermind! Looked through your contribution history and found it at Govinda K. C.. I guess the WP search isn't so good afterall! I also fixed the redirect for you. Cheers — MusikAnimal ^talk 18:20, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

I also moved Govinda K. C. to Govinda K.C.. That's what you wanted, I hope? — MusikAnimal ^talk 18:24, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

A mistake wasn't made- I would like that page taken down 24.246.125.157 (talk) 19:41, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Hey! If you feel this page meets one of these criteria, you may nominate it for deletion. Blanking pages is not the correct route and is considered disruptive. Hope this helps. — MusikAnimal ^talk 19:44, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Don't really care how it's considered- i didn't make the page and it's about me with people vandalizing it daily- thanks

In its current state the page doesn't appear to be vandalized, but we can semi-protect it if that becomes a problem. Rest assured, our patrollers will keep the page clean, I am also personally watching it. The thing to understand, however, is that you nor myself are in any authority to delete the page, as neither of us can actually do that. Since this is a biography on a living person, special measures can be taken. If you are who you say you are, and you truly wish it to be deleted, you may contact the Wikimedia Foundation here. — MusikAnimal ^talk 20:22, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks I appreciate that- just contacted them as well — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.246.125.157 (talk) 17:34, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

	Thanks for reverting that message on my talkpage. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 20:09, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Yeah that was a nasty one... my pleasure in reverting it. Thank you for the barnstar! — MusikAnimal ^talk 20:15, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

You're more than welcome. Indeed, it was a nasty one (about on-par with the time someone decided to add a painting of a man having intercourse with a goat on my userpage), but thankfully, I have a thick skin. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 20:20, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
