'Nikolas Fenech' article

Nikolas Fenech is considered a hero where I live. I am just explaining his childhood to those who are interested in him. I don't see how this article is considered vandlism, and why it should be deleted. I have seen much worse articles than this one.

Stovall

Adam Stovall is a saint and a leader for the gay rights movement. His article was in no way meant to be offensive or silly. Please consider re-posting it. You do not know how much this man means to me.

Matthew Mazankowski page

hey can you unblock the Matthew Mazankowski Page...and i don't understand what you mean by sign my name with the --Matthewmazankowski 02:17, 16 May 2006 (UTC) when i make changes? anyways please fix that please, thank you.

We don't do vanity pages - you created one which was duly deleted. I moved the data to your user page - where you can display it and where it will be safe. It is polite to always sign one's postings with your user details. Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 06:32, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

what if someone creates the page about me?, then it wouldn't be a vanity page...do you need some sort of proof...can you explain the qualifications to have a page about yourself?....and even if someone creates it about me...they can't now because you deleted it...--Matthewmazankowski 22:04, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Even if someone else recreated a page on you, it would still have to establish notability - so get famous and come back when you are! Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 04:49, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

well will you at least undelete it, so it doesnt show me deleted on here, that way when someone makes one about me when i am famous, oh and i will be...and there will be proof, it wont be hard for them to make it for me. PS how do you establish nobility?... say i actually am famous and you just don't know it, how do you find out?--Matthewmazankowski 02:30, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Sorry - No. Notability is like an elephant - you know it when you see it - but not always easy to define! Even if the article was recreated the edit history still lists the deletion on a back page. When you are famous you should treat this as a badge of honour! Now go and get famous! Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 04:56, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Article on Kharb

Hi, my friend , Kharb_gaurav and I were workng on the article Kharb. I know he did a lousy job with it in the begining but he and I rewrote it and made it more factual and relevant so please undelete it. Atleast reply back to me. We had used the hangon feautre and then wrote the discussion page and then improved the article. I think its a case of misunderstanding. Unitedroad 11:48, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

jewish meditation

Ok. Just to let you know what's going on. I started and have been working on a new page called "Jewish meditation". Jewish meditation is usually called by its Hebrew name: Hisbonenus or Hitbonenus depending on your pronounciation. I made pages for those Hebrew titles to link to my new page. Then I got your message and I learned how to redirect. I did so, and hitbonenus (w. the T's) seems to be working great. Hisbonenus (w. the Ss) however, takes you to a page that has the redirect link-but then you have to click on it. Do you know how to get it working automatically like Hitbonenus with the Ts? Help.

Update: Ok, now the redirect is working properly, I figured out the problem.

Okay out with the vanity in with the facts

I agree with your move to the user page. Still a little vain, but I'll trim it down. Trying only to make cross reference for Beehive Standard Weekly publication. I think this last edit gets a little more to the point n'est pas?

I edited this one a few minutes ago, not realizing it was a re-creation of a deleted article. I have no idea of his local notability, but it does indeed looks like NN vanity to me. Grusl 08:09, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

George Edwin Collins

I noticed on Talk:Dictionary_of_National_Biography that you have access to the DNB on CD and wondered if Mr. Collins was in there, at least 3 books published, born 1868ish in London, South Belgrave. He was 33 on 1901 census and living in Great Grimsby parish, described himself as an "Agricultural Sporting Journalist". I have an interest in him as he was a former captain of my cricket club, but I have less than a stubsworth of info on him atm. Bedders 09:27, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Reported for vandalism

Apparently my IP has been blocked from editing for vandalising "2005 sydney race riots" page and several other pages. Truthfully i have never even been to these pages before now, what do i do? Have i been hacked of some sort?

I have checked and your user name is not blocked - so you might be fall out from some other vandal. Go to [[1]] and post a request for help there - as I don't know how to sort out this sort of related blocking. Sorry - I'm not tecky enough to know how to do this!

cyclone

Hi. yeah, I'm trying to an assignment on cyclones. when I went to the page, I coticed how retarded the structure section of the cyclone page is. It may be because I am stupid and can't understand the smart way it is written, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't right:

The clouds of a cyclone is an extremely high-pressure area. Near the outer layer of ducks of the cyclone the pressure quakking attack, from high- to low-pressure regions, and the Coriolis force must be in an approximate extra-terestrial sighting region (or else the cyclone would collapse in on itself under the pressure monsters). The wind flow around a large cyclone is always as big as a large-sized polar bear in the central hemisphere, and clockwise in the southern hemisphere, of coarse due to the bombing of nuclear-powered waste matter effect.

again, maybe it's just me. but I'm pretty sure that the size of polar bears have nothing to do with cyclones. thanks.

Yep it leaves the page behind. I just noticed you're an admin to so you could have deleted it anyway. You're a much nicer person than me I just delete them. Too bad if they haven't saved it. You can give it a try. Create something like User:Brookie/Sandbag and then move it to User:Brookie/Sandbox. The "sandbag" page will be left as a redirct which you can delete as created in error.

Hi

I posted the 'Do an Amir' new article but it was rejected. The phrase is going across the internet like wildfire and I really think it is a valuable, if not yet fully established, cultural reference. Any chance of a reprieve?

Perennialist School

Dear Sir,

I was finishing to edit an article on the Perennialist School but before I finished it, the article was apparently blocked because of copyright issues. I don't really understand what happenned. I am of course the author of the text I was posting.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Renaud Fabbri ([email protected])

It is in fact a excerpt from my MA thesis proposal on Frithjof Schuon. I am presently a graduate student at Miami University in the Comparative Religion Department.

Hope it will clarify the question.

I have posted the article on my own website.

http://www.religioperennis.org/PSchool.html#Biography

So it is not any more unpublished material I assume. In itself, it was just an introduction, my thesis proposal being on a very technical question. There was nothing new really in terms of arguments or information, most of the data coming from the bibliography I mentioned.

Let me know if it can work or what I have to do.

Start with the Wiki guidelines; as original work it is still likely to faile the test. Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 07:12, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

West Haven High School

Hey Brookie. First off, I wanted to ask you to undelete the article. It's a repost, and all, but the original article was deleted improperly (IMHO) and w/o any rationale given, which is a double WP:BITE problem. Besides, don't we have WP-wide consensus that High Schools are notable? I was pretty sure schools were ineligible for CSD - I got some CSD's on elementary schools declined only yesterday.

In the alternative, if you refuse to undelete, please delete the talk Talk:West Haven High School. Thanks. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 18:25, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

RE: Write Way Designs

I apologize if the article about Write Way Designs was considered an "advertisement." I've seen other articles about people's careers and startup businesses. How do you differentiate between my career and that of say, David Melillo, (the rising young singer and son of a colleague of mine)? If the article had been about my Art instead of my technical writing services, would it have been appropriate for your encyclopedia?

Please explain.

Thank you very much for your time.

RE: Lauren Branning

WP:WPEE have always had articles for future characters. Always. And we've only had one AfD on one of them before, of which the consensus was keep, so I see no need for these articles to be deleted, as a lot of work from members of our WikiProject goes into them. I will be re-creating this article, as it is out of place to have one upcoming character deleted and not others. I hope you will not persist in the deletion of such articles.

Hello Brookie. Thank you for your support at my request for adminship which ended at the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0), and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. You can see me in action and observe what then happened as a result. If you need admin assistance, feel free to ask me. Naturally, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out. I look forward to working with you in the future, and enjoy the English summer. Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 03:02, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

You have deleted several of my articles which were both new and relavent.

I made three unique articles.

1. the digital kill (the band) 2. Stacy Silver (the pornstar) 3. Julie Silver (the jazz musician) each of these entries were removed without reason. They were not offensive and very appropriate for wikipedia.

Yes I did - but they were removed with a reason - i.e. none of them established notability - which they need to do. Stacy Silver (the pornstar) has I see been deleted by three separate Admins!Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 16:01, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

If I correct the article without using the first person perspective can I keep the article? It is factually based on a friend of mine from school, and it was not intended for use as a joke.

I'm a little confused about how to write an article

I was wondering about my Stacy Silver, Julie Silver, and The Digital Kill entries. Isn't the point for someone to write an article and then have someone edit to make it better? Because there are many articles that previously did not establish notability such as "My Summer of Love" which was later edited to encompass the rules. I was wondering on that note, if you could unlock my previous article so I could edit them. The problem with Stacy Silver is that there is very little information on her so establishing notability could be difficult, nonetheless it is one step closer to wikipedia's goal of complete knowledge database.

The main issue here is notabilitiy - as far as I can see the Digital Kill lot just aren't notable and if there is not a lot on Ms Silver this is probably becasue she isn't notable. Wiki is not just trying to be a depository on everything and everyone - the base mark is that they are notable! Please also sign your notes with 4 x ~ or use the signature icon in the edit menu.

DYK Update

Hi Brookie, I've added back the two articles you removed so that they get the minimum 6 hour exposure on the main page. Items being removed should also be archived on the template talk page, all the necessary instructions are there and at Wikipedia:Did you know/Guide. Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 15:49, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

• You need to propose your nomination at Template talk:Did you know before it can be placed on the main page. There are dozens of articles in line ahead of your article. — BRIAN0918 • 2006-06-08 15:58

:-) the 4 items thing is a mistake I made when I started updating DYK. Since the main page redesign the rule is now up to 6 items to suit the space available on the main page. Maybe the instructions are still out of date - I'll have a look. Also, you need to nominate your J Cahn entry on the template talk page under the date of article creation. The general rule in updating is to use the older items first, working up to the newer ones. That way all articles get a fair shot at being selected. It will be great if we get another pair of hands to help the updaters. Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 16:04, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Sorry Brookie. I am Jeremy Tozer, not Greg Wain. Where'd you get the idea I was Greg Wain from? Gw06 08:41, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

GW in your user name and the fact that that the Wain article is still on your user page! Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 09:05, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

I respect that it's your job to be an administrator, but why did you delete the page 'Greg Wain'? This has upset me as I provided a justification for the page in the discussion. I found the article to be deleted improperly (IMHO) and without any rationale given, which is a double WP:BITE problem. Besides, don't we have WP-wide consensus that Headmasters are notable?

Regards JonoL 09:08, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Furthermore I should add that there is some confusion over 'Greg Wain'. I gathered from your comment that you assumed Greg Wain created his own page. This is not the case. I know the user name is Gw06, but that username belongs to me, and I represent a 3rd party not directly affiliated with Mr. Wain. I'm sorry for any confusion. Is there any possiblity for a comprimise with the article? Cheers JonoL 09:12, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

See above - we are wary of sockpuppets! So you are also Mr Tozer - what a busy chap you are !Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 09:18, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Once again i'm sorry for the big mess. I'll clarify; Yes I am Jeremy Tozer, with the usernames Gw06 and JonoL. In addition, the Wain article is on Gw06's user page because the user Crzurussian (or something similiar to this) migrated it for me. I would appreciate the article being reinstated, cheers Brookie. P.S. I also noticed on the Greg Wain article, in the image section, you have left the comment about Greg Wain and myself. How can I sort this mess out, so the article and image are coming from only one source or username? Regards JonoL 09:32, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Directors

Hi Brookie,

A bit confused. It seems that you have deleted some of the post that I have made.

You seem to have deleted the post related to both the Production company Grillifilms, even though at Wikipedia there are a lot of them listed. See links:

traktor bbc Film production companies

Furthermore you seem to have deleted a few directors, again not sure though the logic why... please check:

Jonas Åkerlund Music video directors Film directors

I have now (or will within soon) re-create the articles I wrote earlier, and I truly hope that it is not your private subjective view that decides which directors are to be listed and which are not.

As I recall - they all lacked notability. Brookie :) - a will o' the wisp ! ^(Whisper...) 07:01, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

--- Hi Brookie,

not sure if I agree with you. An example; did Lordi win Eurovision a few weeks ago? Did Pete Riski direct all their Music videos? Wasn't "Hard Rock Hallelujah" the second most watched video at youtube.com the week after the contest?

For me, this is notable.

I do hope that you agree, and instead of deleting the contribution I make, please guide me so that I too write articles that are good to read.

Jheri Curls article (NYC Dominican gang)

Hi, this was my first article for Wikipedia (which I wrote out of the blue for no particular reason) and I'm happy to clean it up if necessary but am unsure what exactly that would require.

Just wanted to mention that the paragraph that was removed from the Silver Surfer before your revert seems to be mostly a dupe of the paragraph above, so it was probably legitimate for it to have been removed.
