So much for the boilerplate, but seriously, I'm always glad to see new editors dive right into contributing. Drop me a message anytime you should anything! -- LWG talk 20:22, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

it's true

Why did you revert my edit? It's all over the news — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.184.210.51 (talk) 22:15, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

What am I doing?

He was retarded following his shooting. Why are you making it "intellectually impaired?" I mean for godsake, the man shot himself and he became mentally retarded. Its not vandalism, its just a fact! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.184.231.94 (talk) 23:43, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Well the words have the same meaning, and your vandalism was hilarious, sadly it was reverted by me.PBASH607 (talk) 23:46, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

You I and I both know that he was retarded, not intelllectually impaired, but I will leave your politically correct garbage be. And do yourself a favor and learn what vandalism means. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.184.231.94 (talk) 23:51, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

OK then, your words were more inappropriate and unconstructive than the last, be more respectful on the site. PBASH607 (talk) 23:54, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

My Contributions

As of April 26 2013, I have reverted 246 acts of vandalism from countless articles, I was successful in reverting these edits, that even ClueBot had no chance of catching up to me as I would beat him to it. I also warned countless IP contributors on disruptive editing, they ceased to perform any more disruptive editing. PBASH607 (talk) 12:19, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

As of April 26 2013, I have created three Wikipedia articles which can be found here: MY Sam Simon, Crowder Lake State Park, and Tan Heok Hui, I also resurrected several other articles: Sand Shark, Percy Williams

Wikipedia Rollback

As you may have noticed, the comment I made was a non-administrator observation. My comment cannot change an administrator's decision. I just thought it was unlikely that you would get the right with as few edits as that. A user usually does not get the rollback right unless they have a strong history of vandalism reverts. A few hundred edits (and that in totality) in the article-space (i. e., excluding edits made on user pages, user talk pages, talk pages, etc.) are not enough for that. That's all I meant. smtchahal(talk) 19:00, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

OK, Thank you so much, I appreciate it when I get feedback on my progress, I probably won't be able to use rollback features until 2027 :)but anyways thank you PBASH607 (talk) 19:05, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Acetotyce. You have new messages at WP:RFPERM/R.

Asking for a user right simply because you looked at a list of users with the right and saw that you weren't on it, and not because you actually thought the right would help you with something, does seem to suggest hat collecting ("On the list of confirmed users [...], I couldn't find my name there on the list so that's why I asked to be a confirmed user"). Do you really need someone to tell you that "you sir are a pathetic disgrace to the internet and all of mankind" is an offensive thing to say? Anyway, thanks for removing that from your user page. I'm not going to do anything like blank your user page, it's not uncommon to get off to a bit of a rocky start at Wikipedia as you learn your way around, so don't let me go putting you off helping out around here, because we do appreciate the help you're offering. I would just advise you to make sure you're more aware of what are considered the norms here, perhaps by checking out a few of the various essays and advice pages we have around (WP:5 Pillars can be a good place to start). Regards, - Kingpin13 (talk) 10:23, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank You

I just wanted to thank you for assisting in the article I submitted. This is the first Wikipedia article I have ever created and was well aware of it's shortcomings but submitted it as a stub anyway. I was AMAZED at how quickly you responded and organized the article. Well done.Rachida10z (talk) 12:30, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm new

How do you add a historic photograph of a person who is no longer alive, to an article on that person? I want to provide visual identification of that person, but the person is no longer available for a photo session, and historical photos are rare.Pembrey (talk) 04:09, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

New article

I just submitted a new article. It is under "Galen Starr Ross." If you have the time could you please check it out for errors. Thank you very much. Rachida10z (talk) 04:43, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cache Craze, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Swimming (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Miomantinae

As you added the {{refimprove}}, it's surprising that you added so much content without citing any source for it. Where does it come from? And why did you add a Martial Arts category (Category:Praying Mantis (wushu))? Please take more care with your editing. Thanks. PamD 19:07, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Modern Family Edits

I'm not sure if I'm posting this correctly but I can't find anywhere else to. As far as my editing of List of Modern Family characters I was right to do so the character bios for Jay Pritchett and Mitchell Pritchett is the character bio for Al Bundy from Married with Children. The person who originally posted it didn't even bother to change the names in the bios. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.118.187.209 (talk) 15:22, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Thankyou for your support

I am glad to see people are willing to support me and not just gang up on me. I am trying not to "defy" anyone though, just make wikipedia a better place.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:30, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Georgia News Network

The article Georgia News Network has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no third party coverage, no claim of notability

While all constructive 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:08, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

you need to be looking for third party sources- sources that are not related to the subject of the article. Linking to its own site is not going to substantiate that other parties have found it notworthy. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:24, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Okay, Thank you! That makes more sense! Regards PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 03:26, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

most things on you tube are not going to be reliable sources, they are just something posted by someone (and quite frequently in violation of copyright and therefore not linkable at all from Wikipedia). Good places to begin to look for reliable sources are books.google.com (beware of the publishers that are just Wikipedia mirrors like Books LLC, Icon, and Hephaestus, because they arent acceptable as sources) and news.google.com (mostly, but not all) -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:54, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Okay I will remove the YouTube link and thanks again! PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 03:58, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

it is the responsibility of the person who wishes to add or keep information in an article to supply the reliable sources. If you cannot be bothered, it is likely the article will be nominated for deletion. And given the state of sourcing, it will be deleted unless you or someone else provides the appropriate sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 04:02, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

CSD

The limitations for WP:CSD are interpreted narrowly. "No context" means that it is impossible to tell what the article is about, which was not the case with Michael Vey: Rise of the Elgen, which was obviously about a particular book by a particular author--ab author, furthermore, who has a p. in WP. DGG ( talk ) 04:00, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion

Hi. You tagged Avia Systems with the reason CSD:A1, no context - but the context was clear in that it identified the subject as a software developer. I did delete the article under CSD:A7 as the article did not give any indication of importance, but please be careful with the speedy deletion criteria and what they mean. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:23, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Refer to the post right above yours by DGG and thanks for telling ill remember to do that next time.

An easier way to keep track of the articles you've marked for speedy deletion

Hello PBASH607. I noticed that you are interested in telling your userpage visitors about the articles you successfully got deleted. While that's not something I might consider bragging about, I would like to suggest you a way of better keeping track of the articles you marked for speedy deletion.

Since you use Twinkle for marking pages for speedy deletion, you don't need to manually add pages to a list of pages you've nominated for deletion. Go to your Twinkle preferences and type "keep the csd" in your browser's searchbox (Ctrl + F is the hotkey for most browsers). Enable the option to "Keep a log in userspace of all CSD nominations" and set the sub-userpage where you want the list to be created and updated. By default, it is User:PBASH607/CSD log (for you), but you can change it. Once you've done that, Twinkle will automatically add pages you nominate for speedy deletion to that sub-userpage. After that, you can transclude that subpage to your userpage by adding {{User:PBASH706/CSD log}} to your userpage (if you don't change the sub-userpage setting). Also, you should add <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags to that sub-userpage so that the content inside those tags does not get transcluded to your userpage. Feel free to ask me any questions regarding this. I will reply to them here. I will know if you ask them because I'm watching this page and I frequently keep watching my watchlist, so you shouldn't need to post a {{talkback}} message on my talk page. smtchahal(talk) 11:39, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Or just use [[User:PBASH706/CSD log]] to provide a link to the page. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:09, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Hah, this made my day! Thank you for telling me to keep logs, as I will use that method to keep track of all the pages rather than putting it on my user page (Had a Feeling it wasn't right). I will remove the list of deleted article sometime this week anyways Thanks again! PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 14:00, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Ethel Gardiner

Hello, Acetotyce, and thank you for your contributions!

An article you worked on Ethel Gardiner, appears to be directly copied from http://www.hdsb.ca/Schools/Pages/GardinerPublicSchool.aspx. Please take a minute to make sure that the text is freely licensed and properly attributed as a reference, otherwise the article may be deleted.

It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on Ethel Gardiner if necessary. MadmanBot (talk) 02:18, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ethel Gardiner

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Ethel Gardiner requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Eeekster (talk) 02:35, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Copied from where?

You tagged an article as a copyvio, but failed to provide a source. Do you know it is a copyvio, or are you just guessing? WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 23:07, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

  • This is obviously a copyvio, don't you notice the HTML tags that are clearly visible? when you copy content from a website, directly to Wikipedia, you can easily see the HTML errors, of course i'm not guessing that's silly :) I can provide you a link if you want, Thanks PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 23:12, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Oversight instead next time

You put up Derek Komban for speedy deletion, however, this contained many personal details of a minor and is usually oversighted instead. See WP:Oversight and WP:Requests for oversight. I'm telling you this now after I requested it for overisight and it was done, to not draw unnecessary attention. Ramaksoud2000 (Talk to me) 02:51, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Adolf Ferdinand Weinhold

You tagged this article for {{speedy}} deletion as being created by a blocked or banned user. Agreed, the editor who created the article is currently blocked, although only for one week; and he created the article before he was blocked. We do not usually perform retrospective deletions in this category unless the article is created by a sockpuppet of a previously banned/blocked user, or perhaps if the creator is indefblocked for a long-standing problem. But thank you for your diligence. Happy wikying.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 16:38, 11 May 2013 (UTC) Media:Example.ogg

Why tag Nokia Lumia 928 for speedy deletion

If you dont know about Nokia Lumia 928, then please use a good search engine and read some articles. Then, you may tag the article for speedy deletion. Aren't people supposed to be allowed to expand Wiki page content in small increments? Please justify your action asap. Compfreak7 (talk) 16:43, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about that, when I saw that article in the first place, it was only one sentence long and had lots of clerical errors, so yes at the time I saw it, it looked like a hoax, so I put a speedy deletion tag for it. I should've known better and tagged it for A7 instead. Cheers PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 16:49, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
Okay. Fine. Now take a look at the page again. I have added citations/reference-links, so your reason WP:42 is invalid. Plus we now have content. And the article is under development. So ur AfD is gonna be scrapped. Do something constructive friend! Help me make the page better.

A tip: Do NOT use speedy deletion so quickly on new pages. Let stuff come up first. Give some time. Patience! Wiki teaches me that. A wiki mail for an article's speedy deletion can lead to an heart-attack. Just kidding. Thanks for your patrolling work! Compfreak7 (talk) 17:32, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Re: Rollback Again....

I saw your message on my talk page and also your second rollback right denial. I agree with the admin who denied you; some discussion on your talk page regarding incorrectly marking some pages for speedy deletion, in my opinion, justifies the admin's action, because you've not racked up a large enough edit-reverting history. I don't think rollback is really that big deal, though. If it were not for being able to use Huggle, I wouldn't have applied for the right myself, because I can use Twinkle the same way one can use rollback by clicking the "[rollback (VANDAL)]" button on a page's last diff, though Twinkle is a bit slower (this discussion has a lot about the differences between Twinkle and rollback). Using Huggle is a responsibility, because it does a lot of things semi-automatically: reverting edit(s), warning the user whose edit(s) have been reverted and reporting the user to an admin if necessary. If used inappropriately, Huggle could cause chaos. Hence, not everyone can be trusted for using Huggle carefully. If you don't want to use Huggle (or Igloo, which though requires rollback too, seems to be inactive these days), I'd recommend you to stick to using Twinkle (which, though is a bit slower, does a lot more things than rollback possibly can). Your primary activity on Wikipedia (patrolling new pages) has little to do with having rollback. Having additional user rights — as has been mentioned by various admins, I'm sure — by no means elevates your current status as a Wikipedian. They only permit usage of some tools that cannot be trusted (or be of much use) to everyone. smtchahal(talk) 09:26, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Thank you for your time, I agree with you on the twinkle point, it does the same thing as rollback but unlike it it's a bit slower, Since I edit with, a tablet device (ASUS) , and on that tablet, twinkle still runs but slowly, making it really hard to revert lots of vandalism due to edit conflicts. I don't see how this can be compared to CSD tags I have been placing around, on very short, bogus, or copvio articles. To be honest, Twinkle is the best anti vandalism software I have used. I am also getting a new laptop soon, by then I will get Huggle and STIKi, to see how they work compared to Twinkle. (Just saying I changed my nickname). Thanks! The Grand Cenobite 10:49, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Bend Loss

Sorry, not A7. That's mainly for things with people in, plus web content and organised events. This one looks like a prod case. Peridon (talk) 11:43, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

OK. Explanations. A7 (or 'significance' in Page Curation) is individual people, and groups of people like companies, churches, knitting circles, rock groups and so on. Not churches as in the buildings - only the group of people that use the buildings. Not usually schools either. They are notable if they are high schools or above - but can be deleted for copyvio or promotion. Lower level schools go to Proposed Deletion WP:PROD. Named animals come into A7. Gertie and Alfred the Waltzing Wallabies could be liable for A7 if no significance is shown, but not a particular species of wallaby. Web content is stuff you use on their site. Like things on YouTube, Facebook etc but not stuff you download for use at home. Events are things like festivals, concerts and so on, but not avalanches, shipwrecks or riots. Like all Speedy things, A7 is limited. If there's a claim to significance that's believable, no. "Shaun is the CEO of Wiggle Runners Inc" is a claim to significance. When you see that it says he was born in 2003, that makes it not believable, and A7 does apply. Don't be afraid to ask. Peridon (talk) 12:00, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Vivestad

Hello PBASH607, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Vivestad, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. ϢereSpielChequers 12:12, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy declines

Hi. Just to let you know, I declined your speedy deletion nomination of Hadipora because CSD:A7 does not apply to geographical places (this includes towns, villages etc.). If you have any problems, give WP:CSD a read. Regards Basalisk inspect damage⁄berate 12:14, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
