User talk:Fly by Night
Welcome to my talk page. Please feel free to leave me a message regarding anything. Questions, queries and comments are always welcome. If there's anything I can help you with then do please ask. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. RfA Reform updateHi. It's been a little while since the last message on RfA reform, and there's been a fair amount of slow but steady progress. However, there is currently a flurry of activity due to some conversations on Jimbo's talk page. I think we're very close to putting an idea or two forward before the community and there are at least two newer ones in the pipeline. So if you have a moment:
Thanks for reading and for any comments that you've now made. Delivered by MessageDeliveryBot on behalf of RfA reform 2011 at 21:39, 6 September 2011 (UTC). Sci-Fried page has been improved... Can you tell me if I have avoided the speedy deletion.... Dreamfnder (talk) 01:00, 20 September 2011 (UTC) dreamfnder@aol.com Your messageI think that what you have said on my talk page is wrong, more or less from start to finish, but that engaging you in a debate about policies that you appear not to understand, and policies that, as far as I can see, don't exist, and the apparent factual errors in your description of what has taken place, would not help either of us. In particular, your edit summary "Zzzz... Zzzz... Let's let the people decide. Tagged for merge." at the start of this, and the nature of the proposed merge itself, causes me to wonder whether you have at any time been taking any of this seriously at all, and whether I should even respond to you at all, because I honestly don't know what to make of any of it. James500 (talk) 04:45, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
I am not going to reply further to this thread. Under any circumstances whatsoever. No matter what you say next. I do not think that it would be constructive to do so. James500 (talk) 05:00, 13 October 2011 (UTC) As you can tell from the AFD, I really think you were too quick to send to AFD when there were so many better guideline and policy encouraged ways to deal with the article neeeding sources... actually addressing the concerns proactively being only one of them. I am sorry if you feel my response was too strong, or my presumption that a brand new article was likely not abandoned lacked foundation, but your nomination makes it appear as if you did not research the topic nor consider alternatives. And as I have personally gone to the article to perform some minor cleanup and sourcing so as to address your concerns, will you please consider withdrawing the nomination?

File:Limit circle FbN.jpeg missing description detailsDear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:Limit circle FbN.jpeg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

Message added 09:46, 8 January 2012 (UTC). You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. Assume Good Faith,What I said was "I find it hard to assume good faith" NOT, "I don't assume good faith." I still think the nomination was premature and I have nothing to retract. Cheers. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:31, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
Removing AfD templateWelcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Viktorija Rajicic. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. This is an automated message about this edit, where you removed the deletion template from an article before the deletion discussion was complete. If this message is in error, please report it.

SignatureHello Fly by Night! Would you be so kind to remove the <span style="white-space:nowrap;"> and </span> from your signature? I am unable to see your username and talkpage links on Wikipedia:Help_desk because of that nowrap thing. Thanks in advance, Von Restorff (talk) 17:40, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
Re:Sexting in suburbiaHello, Fly by Night. You have new messages at Download's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. Hello Fly By Night! I was looking through my messages and saw one from you about the page I created, Sexting in Suburbia. Although it sounds absurd to me now, you told me that I deleted a speedy deletion notice on the page. Although I had no idea what I was doing and meant no harm, it sounds like a jerky thing for an editor to be guarding a page, regardless of its quality. I just wanted to let you know that it was a complete accident if you hadn't already assumed that but I mostly wanted to thank you for pointing that out for me and for your diligence noticing what I did. You are a great editor for Wikipedia and I aspire to get to your level of helpfulness to the site. Thanks. Metsfreak2121, User:metsfreak2121 —Preceding undated comment added 21:36, 8 February 2012 (UTC).
See here. Furthermore - why don't you propose changes here on the Wikipedia talk page instead of complaining about "lack of involvement"??? You can't expect people to be constantly watching this page even for months at a time - there are so many other articles that people will look at so they'll generally miss a fairly low-importance one (such as this article). Please reply on that talk page or mine when you can - anyway thanks for at least criticizing my re-write on what you think. -- F = q(E + v × B) 08:46, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!
ThanksThank you for your support at my RfA. I will do my best to live up to people's confidence in me. Yngvadottir (talk) 18:22, 9 April 2012 (UTC) Traackr PageThank you for your feedback on the Traackr page. I will rewrite it following the guideline you pointed out (Wikipedia:ORG). Is a page like PeerIndex a good exemple of a page following the principales of notability? Dchancogne (talk) 03:49, 27 May 2012 (UTC) Request to remove speedy deletion nomination for Princess Theodora von AuerspergHello -- As you suggested, I have updated and annotated the article much more thoroughly, and I have also addressed the copyright issue, though there still seems to be a minor dispute over the wording of the email I received from the Princess herself. I intend to have that resolved quickly. Still, I believe that the reasons for your nominating this page for deletion have been addressed. Please let me know what you decide. Thank you.

ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 22:48, 3 June 2012 (UTC) Deletion of Oren WilkesHe has features in Vibe Magazine, Essence Magazine, Huffington Post, AOL News, along with tons of top celebrity entertainment blogs. He is the face of one of the largest skin care brands in the world alongside Rihanna and he isn't credible? He also runs the flagship men's lifestyle blog apart of Glam Media ( they rep some of the biggest sites on the web). I can provide you with over 30 credible sources. He is probably one of the bigger black male models working in the industry right now and has been signed with Wilhelmina since college. There are so many articles on here about irrelevant models who havent even done half the work Oren has. This is the 2nd time my article has been deleted — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robert Josepha (talk • contribs) 20:00, 25 June 2012 (UTC) MessageI've replied to your message on Talk:Teresa mummert.

Thanks, good bye: from Santiago de Chile, Ulof4 And also your edition about O'Higgins de Rancagua, there is much that shows that your edition was translated of the Spanish page, which by the way shows quite a few deficiencies. Point InsideDisclaimer - I am a Wikipedia rookie. I saw you a Notification: speedy deletion nomination of Point Inside, Inc.. Can you please help me modify the page if something is wrong with it? I'm an expert in the mobile space and saw that many of the major companies are missing - like Point Inside. I was going to fix Aisle 411 and Nearbuy Systems next. I appreciate your assistance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Egm427 (talk • contribs) 23:05, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
St Kilda dandelionHi. I chanced upon your nice article on this subject. In looking at the references it seemed the specific name should be Taraxacum pankhurstianum, so I changed it and moved the page. As a result the link on your user page is a double redirect, but I have not intruded to change it. I hope this is OK. Kind Regards Mcewan (talk) 09:00, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Talk:ResearchGateHello Fly by Night.

First I did not know what you meant because I never heard of nor visited the page. However my kid brother was om my computer the other day and it seems that he edited something by mistake. I apologise on behalf of him and myself for letting this happen. It won't happen again, sorry! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Erico72 (talk • contribs) 08:25, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
My RfAThank you for participating in my RfA, I really appreciate your sentiments. =) When I first saw your username, I was thinking you'd be pretty active in editing articles relating to one of rock music's most distinguished acts. It came as something of a surprise to see that you are in fact a mathematician. Major respect from me, math is the perennial key to exploring the mysteries of the universe. Take care. Master&Expert (Talk) 23:24, 7 August 2012 (UTC) Deletion of rainwater harvesting in the UKYou proposed deleting rainwater harvesting in the UK 16 days ago. I'm not the creator of the article, but I thought the topic had merit, even if the content was, well, terrible. I've made some substantial changes to it, and I'd like you reevaluate your position and possibly even contribute to the article, if you feel so inclined. -NorsemanII (talk) 21:10, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
