Dixie Cup Postioning
[edit]Stan Schmedge... Love your edits in the Nouveaux Nomme de Biere sections. I wanted to discuss a edit I'm arguing to be undone. As the Dixie Cup is a significant event for our club I thought it deserved great expansion and be represented as such on the hierarchy. I believe you changed it to offer a more logical flow in taxonomy which I understand. Please respond. I hope to create a Dixie Cup page in and of itself once the ranger page goes up. Thank you for stepping up and be the first to help.
Welcome

Speedy deletion of User:FoamRanger
[edit]A tag has been placed on User:FoamRanger, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
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 [[ Talk:User:FoamRanger|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. ukexpat (talk) 13:22, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- I can somewhat understand the frustration you expressed on the Mfd page. However there was no indication on your user page that it was a sandbox or article-in-waiting. You should have created it as a subpage of your user page and added the {{User Sandbox}} template at the top so that it was clear that it was a sandbox. As it was, it looked like you were using WP as a free webhost for your homebrew club and that is not permitted. If you want to have the page restored as a subpage, please contact the deleting admin User:Orangemike and ask. – ukexpat (talk) 16:47, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
Temporarily restored
[edit]I've temporarily restored the page, please copy it within the next 10 minutes as I will re-delete it at approximately 5 PM UTC. –xenocidic (talk) 16:52, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- No problem - best of luck. –xenocidic (talk) 16:59, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Having had a chance to look over the content, I'm not sure if it's appropriate for Wikipedia. There are probably other wikis where it could find a home, however. –xenocidic (talk) 21:06, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
MfD discussion comments after closing
[edit]I've moved your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:FoamRanger to Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion/User:FoamRanger as the discussion was closed and it confuses other editors as to the status of the debate. Please take up any issues with the deleting admin or at WP:DRV. Thanks. If you need any help with that part let me or another admin know.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 20:56, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
