User talk:Cogito ergo sumo

Thanks. The same goes for User talk:Cogito ergo sumo as well. What do we suggest to do, so that the constant cycle of some admin deleting the page due to the deleterequest and then having to restore the page can ge broken. I have tried the {{hangon}} template, but it got reverted by Cogito ergo sumo (talk · contribs). Agathoclea 07:44, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now restored as well. (aeropagitica) 07:47, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good, but I only see 1 revision. Agathoclea 07:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I left the last revision that I looked at ticked by mistake. History now restored, apologies. (aeropagitica) 07:58, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The same seemed to happen at User talk:E Pluribus Anthony. sorry to be a pain. Agathoclea 08:02, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Image deletion request

Can you delete the 1st revision of [[Image:SunStar.svg]] for me, it was a bad upload... Thanks, SunStar Net 07:56, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is no link to the image in your message! Why not apply a speedy delete tag instead? It can then join the queue and be deleted with the others. Give me the link and I will do it now. (aeropagitica) 08:02, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:SunStar.svg is the link, delete the version uploaded at 07:50, thanks! --SunStar Net 08:04, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now done. (aeropagitica) 08:07, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Please do not use rollback for any other purpose than reverting vandalism; you reverted [1] a post where I was saying that you used a template incorrectly and asking you to comment on my talk page. That's not vandalism by any stretch of imagination. Tizio, Caio, Sempronio 13:48, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A further investigation shows this edit followed by this rollback. An administrator is not suppposed to behave this way. I sometimes do mistakes too, and I receive complaints on my talk page, but I never used rollback on them. Tizio, Caio, Sempronio 13:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, it must have been at the end of a long admin session. I was not aware of the content of your communication. As to the templates, the only one of which I am aware was the speedy application, placed on the deleted redirect page by another user. I deleted quite a few nonsensical redirect pages yesterday and the one to which your name was appended in the history appeared to be identical to the others. You can disregard any warnings given out.

Your RfA question

I think your question about citing policy in XfD is rather challenging. I might have a difficult time answering that one. I think in XfD it is a good idea to state other reasons for a deletion/keep other than citing the alphabet soup of policy, unless it is an unambiguous delete/keep/merge. —Malber (talk · contribs) 15:50, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is supposed to challenge the candidate - as are yours regarding WP:IAR, WP:SNOW and punitive blocking, yes? You can interpret my question in several ways - offer a literal list of XfD discussions where you have cited policies in your opinion; discuss the alternative deletion methods such as WP:PROD and speedy deletions and perhaps methods of rescuing articles from such conditions; offer an explanation as to why your role as an admin wouldn't take you near XfD discussions; ignore the question, etc. I would prefer to cast a favourable vote for an admin that understands the policies that guide the creation, maintenance and deletion of articles. The question is an opportunity for the candidate to explain their understanding of Wikipedia. Their understanding is one of the props upon which my opinion of their future proficiency as an admin will rest. Regards, (aeropagitica) 16:16, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Beerhill Beerhawks

Why did you delete the Beerhill Beerhawks? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.124.164.6 (talk)

Firstly, sign your comments using four tildes, ~~~~; this makes it easier to respond to other editors. Secondly, an accurate link to the deleted article is also useful in order to understand your comments. Thirdly, your article was deleted because it referred to a non-notable group as per the criteria set out in WP:BIO. (aeropagitica) 08:45, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:ClockworkTroll

Please don't remove the redirect from this page, and/or block it. It was my previous name before I was made an administrator. Thanks. – Clockwork Soul 05:45, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I came across this username in the course of vandalfighting. I didn't mean any disrespect! (aeropagitica) 08:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No harm done. :) – Clockwork Soul 16:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
