Widelands
[edit]Hi King of Hearts, In July I asked you to userfy the last revision of the Widelands article, after it got deleted. Unfortunally I was busy for quite some time, but now that I finally worked on it, I saw some other people already helped me out :). So could you please you check the current version at User:Nasenbaer_peter/Widelands and tell me if it fits the Wikipedia requierements?
Cheers Nasenbaer peter (talk) 13:38, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- I've reviewed it, and think it's acceptable now. I have moved it back. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:21, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey, you semi-protected this page through 2013. Do you remember specifically why? There's a request to have it unprotected at WP:RFPP. tedder (talk) 14:26, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
- I think it's because the person said the last two protections were too short, that this time it needed to last. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:36, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Jonathan Park
[edit]Were you planning on completing the Jonathan Park to Vision Forum merge? If not, I'll be happy to do so. If so, I'll stay out of the way. :) God bless, American Eagle (talk) 01:01, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- No, I wasn't planning to do the merge. Feel free to go ahead with it. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:07, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- Done; thanks. American Eagle (talk) 01:28, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
AFD Questions
[edit]Hey there,
I know you said that you were busy in real life, so I figured I would give you a heads up. I have finished up the AFD questions, and I would love to see your opinion on my closes if you have time.
Regards, MacMedtalkstalk 18:27, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

- @KoH: Just to let you know, I asked for some additional input from some of the opposers on my RFA. The main discussion seems to be going on here. MacMedtalkstalk 04:15, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

xfd closing scripts modifications
[edit]KoH, I've modified a couple of your closing scripts at User:Doug/closemfd.js and User:Doug/closetfd.js, the former had a recent change to the template removing the signature. I changed the template and the script to mirror the actions for tfd. Your tfd is broken because the name of tfd changed to Templates for discussion. I'm planning further additions shortly and may get involved with making DRV behave similarly. Just thought you'd like to know.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 14:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
- I modified my package script to reflect that. Thanks for updating it. :-) King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:38, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
Young Rebel Goombas
[edit]You deleted an article I posted a while back for reasons that are not valid. Richie Saccente and Cosmo Mallardi of Young Rebel Goombas DID win New York Emmy Awards in 2007. Proof of this can be found at http://www.nyemmys.org/attachments/contentmanagers/64/2007%20Emmy%20Award%20Winners7_5_07.doc.
Addition of the award listing at IMDB is currently pending.
This is a very popular Trop-rock band that features Richie Cannata on sax. Mr. Cannata has been on dozens of major international pop hits with such artists as Billy Joel, Elton John and others. What is it going to take to get this listing back up?

I noticed you deleted an article on this subject, albeit back on 19 December 2006. I was hoping to create another. Can I assume the original was a copyvio problem (which I do not intend to replicate), rather than the subject matter itself ? Thanks,
Derek R Bullamore (talk) 21:59, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, so you can recreate it. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:01, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the prompt response. I will try to do the subject justice. Regards,
Happy Thanksgiving!
[edit]I just wanted to wish those Wikipedians who have been nice enough to give me a barnstar or smile at me, supportive enough to agree with me, etc., a Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 07:01, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi. Back in June, you closed this to AfD as Muhammad Shaikh. It has reappeared under a new name and was tagged G4; both Schuminweb and I declined the G4 on the grounds that it was substantially different; he changed his mind and deleted it; I also changed my mind but have now changed it back and decided that the best course is to restore it, bring it back to AfD for another look, and notify everyone concerned in the first AfD.
