You have signed my guestbook!!
Admin?I see you got into a bit of a dust-up about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016 Formula One season (3rd nomination). For what it's worth, I probably wouldn't have closed it so quickly. Sure, it was heading firmly in the snow-keep direction, but it wouldn't have hurt to let it run a couple of days. I don't think what you did was wrong, but maybe not the very best choice of action. That being said, the big picture is I've seen you at AfD a lot and you seem to be like a pretty reasonable person, so would you mind if I nominated you to be an admin? You're already doing much of the work an admin does anyway, so why not get a mop of your own? -- RoySmith (talk) 00:11, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Hi Davey2010, I'm not going to make a big fuss, take this to DRV, or anything like that, but I notice that you both opened and then closed the above AFD. Per WP:BADNAC, I don't think this was appropriate, specifically because you "expressed an opinion in the discussion". Even as an admin, I choose to leave discussions I start for someone else to close, even in cases where the outcome is obvious. Like I said, it's not a big thing, just a suggestion for you to keep in mind in the future =). Lankiveil (speak to me) 07:05, 13 August 2014 (UTC).

I'm SoutheasternTrains but you can call me Chris. At 16:01 today I added content to the article of Kemsley railway station. Then, you deleted it. Why? I live in Kemsley, I use the station everyday and I am also a train entusiast. I added content about the services and you deleted it. I know the station and services through Kemsley like the back of my hand. I would just like to say that I think I have right to post extra content. Please let me know why you deleted my edit. Thanks, Chris

Abellio LondonCan I please get something straight here - why have you removed the bus types/allocated routes etc. from ONE depot which have been there for years without dispute or questioning and not any others? Why have you removed them when someone else was disputing against the only line that was left? I will say it looked far better before all the bickering. Now, just bare with no explanation. aycliffetalk 18:25, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Undid closureI undid your closure because your speedy keep does not seem to be in one of the main qualifiers of WP:KEEP. Additionally, you mention 'socks' but also don't notice that the last three keep votes seem to be from SPAs as well. As such, due to this nature, it should go for the full 7 days and be evaluated by an administrator. See Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Amanda_Eliasch_(2nd_nomination). Thanks.

CircusHey Davey, I swapped your vandalism warning for a {{welcomelaws}} template. I think the edit was inappropriate, but not exactly vandalism. This is either a misguided newbie or (more likely) someone's sock; the former is served by the welcome template, while the latter should be blocked not for vandalism but simply for violating WP:ILLEGIT. If you want to flag an admin to look into the latter, that would probably be more useful than going the "vandal" route. Nikkimaria (talk) 20:46, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

The article is currently under semi-protection due to constant BLP violations, and I have requested full protection due to the same issues cropping up with autoconfirmed editors. Your edits got lost in the crossfire, though I admit that I reverted deeper to avoid using your date format change. ISO 8601 date format (2014-09-27) has been stable for months in this article, and that's what I prefer. This is the second time someone has unilaterally changed the date format in that article, but I'm tired of the constant edit warring there. If you really, really want it that way, I'll probably just go with it. But I will make a Jimbo Wales-style personal appeal that you revert back to ISO date format. It's specifically allowed by the MOS, and the MOS also recommends against changing date formats. If my policy-based arguments don't move you, how about a haiku?
Come on, I even wrote a haiku. Jimbo Wales doesn't even do that for you. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:20, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

List of Waterloo Road characters edit disuptesHi Davey, first of all I would like to say I am sorry for your loss. It must be terribly difficult when you lose a parent, so my upmost condolences. I will totally understand if do not want to get involved in any article disputes at this difficult time, however the Waterloo Road articles are again coming under fire (that time of the year again, the juveniles tend to crawl out from under their rocks when that show comes back on), and again their is a dispute as to which series the next block of episodes belongs to - Series 9 or 10. As with every year, the BBC mini site and Radio Times have it listed as Series 10, and Shed and the Official WR website have it down as 9C (the latter of which I would take over the BBC or Radio Times as they don't have production rights). Would it be possible for you to take a look and perhaps give your imput? I know you have been a part of solving disputes on that article before.

User:Justa PunkHe is a banned user, and Wikipedia policy is that edits from sockpuppet of banned users are to be deleted. He is not entitled to five chances, as he earned a community ban and has continued with sockpuppetry for over 4 years since then. Furthermore, he was blocked today for edit warring and changed IPs within 5 minutes to resume edit warring. Ban evasion coupled with block evasion means that action beyond 5 warnings is required immediately. GaryColemanFan (talk) 02:40, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Radio City 96.7Hallo, I've just attempted to add some omissions to the Past Presenters section, to have the page up to date for the 40th anniversary on Tuesday. For some reason you have removed the additions, and a great many other names, citing publicity. I notice I included [[]] in error round my name and John Henry's, but I hadn't finished editing and was trying to correct that when you intervened. I think you should restore the all names that were removed if that's possible. Best wishes B Bill Bingham (talk) 22:57, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

IntuHi, thanks for that. I'll review that as there seems to be more evidence coming up now which supports naming the articles with the Intu brand.

Quick questionAs you're a member of ProjectEurovision, here's one for you to ponder over. You know the EBU did a special show to celebrate 50 years, and called it Congratulations: 50 Years of the Eurovision Song Contest. Well all that happened before ProjectEurovision was thought of, so the creation of such article title was easy. The EBU have announced that there will be another special show to mark the 60th anniversary, and it will be held in London, which means a new article is imminently going to be created. Now here's the conundrum question: as the dates are unknown, as is what the show will be called - what do we do? Per WP:CRYSTAL and possible WP:NOR, we cannot assume what the shows title will be, as there is no confirmation from either the EBU or BBC. Without that show title, we're kinda stumped as to what to call the article. So do we:
Doing the first option could open things up for page move warring. Doing the second option, could risk the creation of a new article anyway, which would in turn put us back to the problem we'd have with the first option. Bit of a catch-22 this one, ain't it?

Rosemarie BurianHi Davey, I hope I'm not bothering you and that you have recovered, if not, then please forgive this intrusion. If you have recovered and are working on Wikipedia articles again, then I am happy for you. I wrote an article for Rosemarie Burian, as I believe she is a remarkable person, I wanted to acknowledge that by giving her a page on Wikipedia. She has been a huge contributor to social justice by founding Bethlehem Center, now the Northern Illinois Bank. I don't mean to sound as though I'm pushing the Northern Illinois Food Bank. I am just looking for a way to speak to her contribution to humanity. I added sources. Is this still against Wikipedia standards? What do you think?

Your revert was incorrectPlease do the math: If you are born in 1979, what year do you graduate high school? Oh that's right: 1997!!!! I am the same age as Aaron Paul -- the actor from Breaking Bad - same birthdate and all. EVERYONE our age graduates high school in 1997. On the Wiki page, it states he graduated high school in 1998 -- which links to a newspaper article. So I'm certain it's probably correct. However, the PART I TAKE ISSUE WITH is the part that states, "graduated a year early, in 1998." 1998 is NOT a year early. It is a year LATE, if anything. He would be turning 19 the summer of 1998 -- how is that a year EARLY??!! What bugs me most is I EXPLAINED this to you in my edit. And you didn't read it. A source is NOT NEEDED for this -- do the basic math -- graduating high school in 1998, as an almost-NINETEEN year old, is not "one year EARLY" now is it?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melissadab (talk • contribs) 22:48, 23 November 2014

Good!Good to see that you have added this on your page. I didn't remember if I saw this before. If it was there for years then I might haven't noticed it. Anyway, good job! :) Jim Carter 20:22, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
Rihanna AfDsPer your comments here, I feel that you lack the objectivity to appropriately close the "Cold Case Love"/"Stupid in Love" discussions as a non-admin. Particularly since both discussions (especially "Stupid in Love") did not see very much commentary aside from two editors who worked on the articles. If you're not interested in reopening, I will likely take these to DRV. –Chase (talk / contribs) 23:19, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

Ebola Virus DiseaseI do appreciate that you have noted that my edits were made in good faith (you were the first to do this, and I appreciate that!), but my passage was made less to allude to real encyclopedic articles and more to the benefit of anyone taking a quick glance at the article. In my experience, Wikipedia is used as a summary, and I was hoping to clear certain myths (I am an advocate for Africa, and I felt this issue to be close to my heart). I appreciate your diligence and I wish you happy holidays!Kieran P. Clark (talk) 01:25, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

A Google search shows that Shit is a surname, if the information I found is correct it comes from India. It could be that they are just using their name - I Shit - which is allowed under Wikipedia's policies. As for the 007 bit, that could be their house number or maybe they're even a fan of James Bond :D--5 albert square (talk) 14:02, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Non-Admin ClosureHi there, I noticed you did a NAC on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Steve_Munro. You need to allow AfD to run a full 7 days, you only allowed this to run for 5 (please review Wikipedia:Non-admin_closure). Please re-open this debate as it did not give myself or anyone else time to respond to or clarify the reason I nominated it.

Please don't revert my editsHello, Davey 2010 I am Gowtham avg you have been reverting my edits on the article Chutti TV. Col-3 is not better because it made the list look clumsy and congested whereas single list gives a neat appearance. The red links on Chutti TV have the very possibility of creation. I am the genuine contributor of 90% of content of Chutti TV article. It have been taken years for me to edit all the content that is present on the article. So, I am requesting you please not to revert my edits on Chutti TV. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR.

I do agree with the assessment here that is more of an issue for WP:ANI, of course. I am hesitant to be the one to open a thread, perhaps since I consider myself involved due to !voting in the relevant AfDs, but primarily because I feel that is your prerogative, if you choose to do so, as you seem to be the target of much of the WP:BATTLE and WP:AGF issues caused by this editor. I'm not going to sway you one way or another, but I did simply wish to let you know that your concern is noted and that, perhaps, having other sets of eyes look at his behavior might change his attitude for the better. --Kinu t/c 19:18, 28 December 2014 (UTC) ‡I intentionally left his username unlinked here, since I figure you don't need yet another response of the type he gives cluttering your talk page.
Anyway thanks for opening it up :), Hope you have a great New Year ;),

NPAPlease don't say people are a "pathetic waste of space", that's a personal attack too. I say this for your own good, I would absolutely hate it if this were to be used against you. Instead you can do things like cite NPA, or wait for others to point out inappropriate behavior. BTW, I think it's awesome that you live in Strood. Someday maybe I'll get to visit London, it looks so nice. :) --AmaryllisGardener talk 04:14, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
Finding a standard for fleet sectionsHi Davey2010, I have received a few queries regarding the fleet section on bus company pages, and I personally did notice a few of them were significantly condensed to one-liners. I do understand (and personally do get annoyed) that fleet sections tend to get cluttered with several unsourced and unnecessary information. I support the removal of unsourced information. However, to reduce them to one-liner appears to be going the other extreme, especially if the details of bus procurement or disposal is recorded in several reliable sources including newspaper articles, books, etc. I am thinking if a balance can be reached, a standard that can be universally applied across the project covering bus-related articles that is based on reliable sources. If let's say there is no reliable sources on the fleet, perhaps we do keep it brief as it is. For those with reliable sources covering the models though, perhaps the fleet section of airline articles is a possible standard that can be adopted (e.g. Qantas and British Airways). There is a brief table, well sourced, and lack of clutter. Thoughts? - Mailer Diablo 14:52, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Just saw your contribution/discussion re: the page Katja Glieson i contributed to. I'd be more than happy to help fix the page with some guidance - most notably to fix the citations and ensure there is no 'promotion crap' as you say. It was definitely not my intention and I'm aware of the neutral requirements and did try to be. More than happy to even just delete anything non-factual or promo in nature. Thanks!
