Do not create, add, or restore hoaxes to Wikipedia. Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:46, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re: An article about the "legends" and "mythologies" of red-heads.

Re your message: The only way that your article would be allowed to remain on Wikipedia is if you were to provide citations to reliable sources backing up any claims about these "legends" or "mythologies". Wikipedia already has such content at Red hair#Religious and mythological traditions. Wikipedia articles are not for joke articles, hoaxes, or things made up one day, which your user space article clearly was. While Wikipedia does have fun from time to time, it does not do so at the expense of a group of individuals. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:32, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: Like I said to you in my previous message, if you can provide citations to reliable sources about these "legends", then you may add them to the Red hair article. If these "legends" continue along the line of your deleted user space article, then I doubt that you will be able to find the necessary references. As for your repeated request for private correspondence, I prefer to keep all Wikipedia-related conversations on Wikipedia unless there is some personal privacy issue that is being discussed. I do not see any part of this conversation being of a personal privacy matter. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:56, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Could I get the article that was deleted returned to me for private use?

Re your message: I have restored the article back to its original location. I will delete the article again in seven days. If you pick up a copy before then, you can leave me a note and I will delete it earlier or you can add {{db-user}} to the article and another admin will delete it. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:28, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: Not a problem. Have you saved your copy? -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:45, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
