The issue with the article is it is in violation of copyright laws. If the copyrighted material was removed, there would not be any substance left in the article. ttonyb1 (talk) 06:48, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is not enough to remove the copyvio tag. Sorry... ttonyb1 (talk) 06:52, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You will note that I did not reissue the SD tag. ttonyb1 (talk) 06:58, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion

Here is the information you requested about Speedy Deletion. I would suggest you read the entire article before you start tagging for Speedy Deletion. Good luck... ttonyb1 (talk) 15:52, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cathy Silvers

I'm concerned about the libelous implications of this nom. If someone has never been involved in pornography, it's a bad idea to declare them non-notable on the grounds that they don't meet the criteria for notability which are only relevant to pornographic performers. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 21:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Super Bowl XLIII

Stop adding up-to-the-second information on this article. It is not appropriate. seresin ( ¡? ) 03:03, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ipromise. You have new messages at Townlake's talk page.

I'm not sure if you revisited the RFA to see my clarification about the analogy? After the RFA finished, I found this link that mentions what I was referring to: Wikipedia:Sock puppetry#Clean start under a new name. Just for the future, try not to infer so much from a simple analogy - I wasn't advocating breaking rules or making a statement about whether the ends justify the means, simply describing what does happen. I agree that part of being an admin is communicating well, but part of being a Wikipedia contributor is accepting that this is an imperfect, text-based medium of communication and not reading too much between the lines and making assumptions (aside from AGF, of course, which is our one overarching assumption :). I don't know what your other concerns are/were about me becoming an admin, or why they were difficult to discuss, but let me know if you have any issues and I'll see what I can do. Thanks, Somno (talk) 07:06, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User:SheffieldSteel/list

I thought that you should know that your name is included on what appears to be a personal "hit list" of admin SheffieldSteel's. My name is also included on this inappropriate list. As far as I'm concerned, that list has got to go and the admin in question forced to resign. Caden S (talk) 06:11, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's no such thing. It's simply a list of users the admin is watching. If anyone has a problem with it, they should take it to WP:ANI and ask about it. Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} 06:59, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

See, I knew I should have never mentioned something about Mr. Steel. Now he is trying to find an excuse to block me. As far as watching me, a senior editor is watching me to help me, not to block me. This is too bad that certain people in Wikipedia are out to pick on others. This can be a sign of a subtle mental problem. Ipromise (talk) 04:26, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You would have been better off saying nothing, as Sheffield already deleted the list out of politeness, even though there was no rule compelling him to do so. It was just a list of users he was watching, just a keystroke-saver. I might be on a hundred such lists, but I wouldn't sqawk about it. In any case, it's over and done with, as Sheffield deleted it on his own. Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} 04:32, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That is nice of him to do if he really means it. If he now keeps the list secretly on a piece of paper, then it shows that he is sneaky. If he is willing to start afresh, then that's nice of him. Administrators sometimes tell others to forget about the past and start fresh. If Mr. Steel is willing to do that and forget about his shit list, that shows he has good character. If he keeps a grudge, then that shows something else. I am willing to give him a fresh start and will not nag about it. Ipromise (talk) 04:39, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man, I believe Shef is being genuine. So let's just all forget about this. Does this sound cool to you? Caden S (talk) 05:02, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ipromise, you need to review WP:AGF before making statements such as "trying to find an excuse to block me" and "out to pick on others". The policy is quite clear that since there's no evidence justify those remarks, you should not be making them. I was also going to warn you about making personal attacks - but I notice that you don't actually imply that it's me that has the subtle mental problem. Not many editors are mature and self-confident enough to admit that possibility. Regards, SHEFFIELDSTEEL^TALK 14:15, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Caden says "does this sound cool to you?" But then Mr. Steel can't let it rest. That sort of behavior is almost as bad as vandalism because others stop editing Wikipedia. Look, I have not edited because of Mr. Steel's hostility. The effect of his suspicious behavior is not much different from vandals making a silly edit.

No consensus

WP:Deletion policy is the relevant policy where it says "Under most circumstances, if there is no rough consensus the page is kept and is again subject to normal editing, merging or redirecting as appropriate. Discussions concerning biographical articles of relatively unknown, non-public figures, where the subject has requested deletion and there is no rough consensus may be closed as delete.". This has however recently been subject to a long discussion on the talk page there which you are welcome to read where some editors are trying to change that policy to make all BLP default to delete when there is no consensus.

Kmweber

Come on. Do you really think I filed that AFD just to bait Kmweber into breaking his editing restriction? Get real. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 04:36, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You may file the AFD but complaining about Kmweber's defense of the article and seeking his block is very unethical and low life. You can complain about other things but the AFD complaint is not valid, just wikilawyering. Even if Kmweber is bad, do not stoop to a low level to get him. Ipromise (talk) 04:40, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kind of an extreme comparison don't you think? I didn't explicitly ask for him to be blocked; I asked if he should be blocked. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 04:46, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not a very civil comment, Ipromise. KMweber was explicitly restricted from editing any page in the Wikipedia namespace, for good reasons of prior disruption, under penalty of being blocked. He did so edit on the Afd in question. he was duly blocked, Pretty automatic, and so it should be. DES ^(talk) 05:55, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An ArbCom arbitrator disagrees (Newyorkbrad). Ipromise (talk) 05:57, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Get off it TPH, you nominated atleast 1 article and 2 of his userpages (even though you should have known better re the userpages) for deletion on the same day, then waited to 'innocently' report him at AN/I a week after his initial comment at the afd. Then, 20 mins after your initial query as to if he should be blocked you, oh so nauseatingly prod with ETA: It says "Any continued edits to the said areas will result in an immediate indef block." Hmm.. Then after the block you proceed to call the blocking admin my hero. Your behavior in this matter has been nothing short of disgusting. Unomi (talk) 08:23, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please continue the discussion elsewhere. Others, please do not add comments unless you are replying to my question. I am finished with the topic and wish to move on to something else. Ipromise (talk) 08:34, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rodney Watson article

At your request, I have restored Rodney Watson and moved it to User:Ipromise/Rodney Watson, and added {{userspace draft}}. If you decide not to work on it, you cna tag it with {{db-user}} to have it re-deleted. If you do work on it, i urge you to go through DRV before moving back to mainspace, or a G4 speedy deletion might occur. DES ^(talk) 05:52, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Rain-X

A tag has been placed on Rain-X, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous 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 Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. 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.
