User talk:AsnacCroydon CollegeHave you seen the edit request on Talk:Croydon College? I can't believe the arrogance of "Senior management"! Nor can I really see what they object to – the two sentences under dispute are matters of history, and not remotely defamatory or disparaging (in fact, given the latter-day respectability of Malcolm McLaren et al., I'd have thought the association was something they might be quite proud of). I don't know what the protocol is, but if there's anything I should be doing, please let me know. GrindtXX (talk) 14:01, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion template removal{{adminhelp}} I nominated a page for speedy deletion but the creator has deleted the template and I notice he deleted someone else's nomination earlier. Have left message on his talk page but was wondering, once a page is nominated can the person keep deleting the template forever or will an administrator be aware of what's going on? asnac (talk) 16:53, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

While I may be an employee of the college I am cleaning up the page as biased and fair as I can be which includes removing information that is no longer pertinent to the college. I did not create this page, it was created by someone else or a bot and I don't want it to be showing outdated or antiquated information. I cite all the new facts I put in that are from reputable third-party sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GMCedu (talk • contribs) 17:31, 22 August 2012 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for February 5Hi.

I agree that we should discuss further at the article talk page - however, we should be discussing how to build the article back up. We really need to start from scratch here.

Your request for rollbackHi Asnac. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin).

GAONA conflictI was still working on it. I was planning on creating a separate page called Gaona Karaoke, Gaona Argentina and having a redirection link to these from Gaona page. I am still new, and was figuring out, how to do it. You can do it if you want to. I guess you get the idea? Sharathadavanne (talk) 04:06, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
Revision to Ray Donovan PageHello, I'm responding to your message about my revision to the Ray Donovan page. I just checked the page and I saw that a member of the recurring cast is not listed anymore. In your message, you mentioned that my edit was not "constructive". I went to a page looking for more information on a show I watched, saw that there was information about a cast member missing, and added the information. It was a while ago, but I believe I added the full name of the character portrayed and maybe a parenthetical note about the character only appearing in the first season. It was a small edit, but how was it not constructive? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.69.160.74 (talk) 04:32, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
Revision to Ivan Kozlovsky PageI received a message that a change I made to to the above page wasn't considered "constructive." The change consisted of removing a few sentences that state Kozlovsky couldn't leave the Soviet because his brother had left many years earlier. I have read no evidence backing this assertion in any account of the singer's life. That his brother left is incontestible, but Kozlovsky's rise to fame and popularity post-date that by several decades. Kozlovsky had family, friends, steady employment, regular recordings, concerts, tours, and honors in the Soviet. Whatever one might think of the regime, he never fell out of favor, and there seems no apparent reason to doubt he would have wanted to return if he left. If you can provide evidence that Kozlovsky was refused a request to tour outside the Soviet, I will gladly concede your point. I am only looking to avoid placing unsupported rumors in what should be a factual account of the great tenor's life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.239.61.216 (talk) 13:23, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
Re: Children's Order of Chivalry pageHello. Thank you for your inquiry about the possible mention of this in Wilfrid Blunt Lady Muriel: Lady Muriel Paget, her Husband and her Philanthropic Work in Central and Eastern Europe - London, Methuen & Co., 1962. Yes, I do own a copy of this, but unfortunately the only index it provides is an Index of Persons. Without re-reading the entire book needle-in-haystack fashion, the only reference to the Children's Order of Chivalry that I have so far discovered is on pages 10 to 12. This is rather brief, but it reads as follows:
*Please note that the remainder of p.11 is taken up with the reproduction of part of a handwritten letter by Viscount Maidstone, in which the Order is not mentioned at all. I have also found a reference to the Children's Order of Chivalry in Irene Austen (compiler) and Emon Khan (editor) Ewerby Book: A History & Village Life Today - Ewerby, Lincs., Ewerby Reading Room, 2007. This reads:

I am interested in his 1825 watercolour of the Skerne Bridge (see here). I have a scan of it which I would like to upload to Commons, but I have been unable to establish the US copyright position, which I believe depends on when it was first published. There is evidence that it was published in the Northern Echo (31 May 2000), though I have not confirmed this. Wikipedia also records that editions of Skinner's journals were published in 1930 and 1984. From my limited understanding of US copyright, if it was first published either in 1930 or in 2000, it is out of copyright, but if the first publication was in 1984, then it remains in copyright until 2035 (or some such future date). Is the Skerne Bridge watercolour in the 1984 edition of Skinner's Journals? If it is, does the book indicate whether it was also in the 1930 edition, or is 1984 its first appearance? -- Verbarson talkedits 22:13, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
@verbarson The 1930 edition doesn't have that illustration either. asnac (talk) 19:40, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
