New Page Patrol

Hi. Thanks for your work patrolling new pages. A small niggle about Mir Waliuzzaman just now - WP:CSD#A1 didn't really apply - it was certainly very short, but the context was clear - it was about Mr W. The right tag would have been WP:CSD#A7 or {{db-person}} - no indication of importance or significance, and I have zapped it under that. It's worth reading WP:CSD carefully, as the criteria are deliberately tightly drawn. There is good advice from an experienced admin at WP:10CSD and WP:A7M. Keep going - NPP needs all the eyes it can get! Regards, JohnCD (talk) 11:31, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, it just caught my attention of being less than 5 words, so I quickly tagged it with a1. But yes it looks like a7 as i think about it now. I will look the csd a little more. And again, thanks for notifying me.Peppermint Chills

Henri pozzi

I changed you CSD tag to a copyvio tag. Please take a moment to review CSD tags and when best to use each. Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 12:37, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I looked at the titles of both and the short summary of both and they seemed to match. I tagged it with it coping existing article. Didn't realize it also violated G12. Thanks for notifying me of the changePeppermint Chills

• Thinking about it now,with the information I had at the time I should have put a redirect instead. The initial tag i used was entirely wrong, I reviewed A10 and A7 more. I seem to have trouble deciding when to use them. This may also be because i am pretty tired right now. Peppermint Chills

Thanks!

I step away to make some tea and the Sex symbol vandal has been back AND reverted twice in that time frame! Thank you very much. Petitscel (talk) 03:28, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Bruce Lee

I'm sure you mean well, but please do not archive ongoing discussions. Thank you.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 07:09, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

• Sorry about that, Knowing now that there are some edit wars that recently happened, I can see why the discussions I archived are needed. I hope I didn't cause too much trouble.Peppermint Chills
  • It's ok, I was sure you were trying to help, but as you can see, tempers are flaring between two of those guys. I could see the next step being one accusing the other of "hiding consensus" or something similar. My patience is wearing out on that one as a result, too. I trained with one of Bruce's original students in one of the original schools a few weeks ago and am determined to help the article, though!--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 08:07, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
    • I see what you mean with the "hiding consensus" that you are worried about. After receiving your first message, I removed the the discussions from the archive. I hope they can come to an agreement with the article. Peppermint Chills

Speedy tagging

Thanks for tagging Mingu kang (twice) just now. Just a note about your second tag: WP:CSD#G4 is only for use where an article has previously been deleted by an AfD. If it's a speedied article that comes back, just re-speedy it, particularly if it's an attack like that one, where you first tagging (blanking + db-g10) was absolutely correct - that gets it off the screen and puts it in a high-priority queue for admin attention. Keep up the good work - there is good advice for speedy taggers at WP:10CSD and WP:A7M. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 10:27, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

• Thanks for the info, I never had dealt with an article that has been previously deleted so it was somewhat new.I first wasn't sure what to do(never used G4 until now), but your explanation does make sense.Peppermint Chills

Vandalism of your page

You are welcome, I just pressed the button :) While looking at your page I couldn't resist stealing a userbox of your's! I'm still laughing with this: "This user is an unskilled worker, and damn good at it". Hope you forgive me! Cheers! --Egmontaz♤ ^talk 18:21, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Dole

Why do you guys insist on reverting to that version of the article about dole, when it is obviously neither objective nor factual? Why does an entry that basically is just a link to another page, need a libertarian rant about taxation as theft? Dogbert76 (talk) 09:27, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Dear Peppermint Chills,

I noticed that you reported my editing of the CUCA page as vandalism. I find this slightly odd since I have given reasons for my editing decisions on the discussion page, including the removal of irrelevant information and altering some sentences to better reflect the sources / events as they occurred, to my personal knowledge. If you disagree with my editing decisions, I'm sure there's no need to report it as "vandalism", since this is plainly not true.

Yours,

Hello Peppermint Chills. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Taher kaboutari, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 10:46, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
