Zepppep (talk) 01:50, 24 September 2012 (UTC) Page Curation newsletterHey Go Phightins!. I'm dropping you a note because you used to (or still do!) patrol new pages. This is just to let you know that we've deployed and developed Page Curation, which augments and supersedes Special:NewPages - there are a lot of interesting new features :). There's some help documentation here if you want to familiarise yourself with the system and start using it. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks!

I de-prodded because I couldn't figure out your reason. "G10" is for attack pages. You must have meant something else? It's probably best not to use CSD codes in prod reasons where newbie article creators won't be able to understand them. —Cupco 21:03, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
Re: Backward InventionThanks :) Sarvesh.syal14 (talk) 03:49, 25 September 2012 (UTC) Thome reviewI see the peer review solicitation has closed without any responses. Typically PR is for articles that have already attained a certain level, such as GA. I have left comments on the PR archive page anyways. If the items are tended to and it is submitted for GAN, I will review it. Zepppep (talk) 10:25, 26 September 2012 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for September 26Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

In adding this page I am only trying to add information about our firm in the context of all the other firms that are listed and provide detailed information about the firms (Foley, Michael Best, Axley, Von Briessen, etc.) It is a matter of being included with our peers and if there is a conflict of interest, I publicly disclose that conflict and would hope it is in compliance with said rule "When someone voluntarily discloses a conflict of interest, other editors should always assume the editor is trying to do the right thing. Do not use a voluntarily disclosed conflict of interest as a weapon against the editor." If it is not, then I would assume that not only our page is in conflict but also those of all the other law firms and we should all be treated equally, either included or excluded from Wikipedia. Believe it or not, law firms do have historical roots in the fabric of their communities and including information on them isn't self promotional. ----DeWitt 8891 Hi, I did and made a few changes, tried to remove adjectives. I will have my assistant spend some time today trying to wikify it. As I'm sure you're aware, there are a lot of standards and for those of us new to adding an article, it is a bit overwhelming but I do want our page to be in compliance so please give me a few days and I will try to get it up to speed :) Thanks Dewitt8891 (talk) 14:42, 26 September 2012 (UTC)DeWitt8891 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dewitt8891 (talk • contribs) All right, are you affiliated with the firm? Go Phightins! (talk) 16:33, 26 September 2012 (UTC) yes, I am the Director of Marketing (Michelle Friedman http://www.dewittross.com/our-people/michelle-friedman). We hired an SEO specialist who indicated we did not have a page on Wikipedia while all of the other firms did. So I did some searching and determined that was accurate and obviously those pages were added by the firms. Again, if it's against the rules, I'm cool with that, but from an information perspective, our firm shouldn't be absent among all the others. So, either all of them come down or stay up, I'm not sure. I will try and add relevant individuals who have worked with the firm, similar to Foley's profile, if that will help. I have my assistant working on wikifying the page so it is straight objective data. Again, our firm is the oldest on the Capitol and was featured on a public radio station regarding how it has survived so long, it has a long history in the city of Madison and maybe some kid will do a paper, I don't know. But I don't want to spend a lot of time if it is for not, so please let me know. Thanks. ----DeWitt8891 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dewitt8891 (talk • contribs) 17:41, 26 September 2012 (UTC) Well, I pretty much re-wrote the article and it still doesn't really conform to Wikipedia's quality standards, but it's a start. At this point, the article needs reliable secondary sources to establish notability. And to your argument regarding other firms in your area having Wikipedia pages, WP:OTHERSTUFF asserts that that's an invalid argument towards this one having a page. Thanks--Go Phightins! (talk) 19:27, 26 September 2012 (UTC) I appreciate your assistance in rewriting the page. I will have my assistant include reliable secondary sources as outlined in your link. Hopefully it will meet and conform, if not, we gave it a shot. Again, thanks. ----DeWitt8891 No problem--Go Phightins! (talk) 19:48, 26 September 2012 (UTC) We've added a few more secondary sources and are working on including names of people significant to Wisconsin/Government. Please let me know how it looks now and if the comments at the top will ever go away. ---- dewitt8891 my first articleHello, you just took a look at my first article. Any feedback you could provide would be greatly appreciated, as I am still new to Wikipedia.

I noticed that you tagged Arabiusing lots in israel for speedy deletion under criterion A1. It is best to wait at least 15 minutes after an article has been created before tagging for A1 or A3. You may wish to review the Criteria for speedy deletion before patrolling more pages. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Thank you, Electric Catfish (talk) 00:01, 28 September 2012 (UTC).
Hi! I waited until the kiddies went to bed and rewrote the controversy section, removing the names and shortening it considerably. Hope that looks better to you. Happy editing! Gtwfan52 (talk) 05:46, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion contested: Importance of dress code at workplaceHello Go Phightins!. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Importance of dress code at workplace, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not blatantly vandalism or a hoax. Thank you. →Σσς. 01:00, 30 September 2012 (UTC) Bob DavidsonThanks for getting involved with the Bob Davidson article, it's good to see another editor take an interest in an umpire page. If you'd like to officially join the task force, that would be great! Of course, you don't have too and it really has little to no effect on your editing in general. With regards to our conversation on my talk page, I am leaning towards accepting your offer, perhaps in about a month. However, I might try to get advice from some other editors on whether or not running for adminship at six months could be harmful to a future RfA. AutomaticStrikeout 03:35, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
Thank youThank you for the warm welcome! I am excited to start editing on Wikipedia. I've read many articles but I decided it was time to jump in and contribute as well. Happy editing to you! Tucsontammy (talk) 03:48, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
Municipality of AshfieldThe page Municipality of Ashfield is inaccurate and its content under controversies can not be verified. Please delete it or verify its accuracy. Please do not undo my deletes they are justified and correct in the procedure wiki suggests. There are no reputable sources that verify any of what has been entered into controversies. This is a blatant personal attack on one person. Why are there no other matters canvased. The author of the page has a personal grudge on Nick Adams. It does nothing for the reputation of Wikipedia to sponsor and support such attacks. Why should I help destroy someones reputation. The author has a personal vendetta against Nick Adams. There have been many other controversies at the council. Why have these matters not been mentioned? Please do no support or harbor vindictive attacks on Wikipedia!! Delete controversies or mention them all. Do not be selective. It reduces Wikipedia's reputation to do so.Thankyou. Please delete the section, if you can not verify it. It is vexatious and a deliberate attempt to sully the reputation of a person.Macashfield (talk) 06:00, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Articles for creation/Monda MarketHi Phightins The references given for this article are from two of India's most reputable newspapers. Its surprising you could not notice it. In case you are familiar with India you must be knowing that The Hindu and Times of India are India's two most reputed newspapers whose link incidentally is given in this article. Regarding notability, let me introduce to you a city known as Hyderabad which happens to be the fifth largest city in India. Monda Market happens to be the oldest market in this city which was established more than 100 years ago. I hope this clarifies your querries. An article of this size does not require any more references or the size of references will be bigger than the article itself. For any further querries you can search the net regarding this market.

Thanks very much for your input into "Alan Ruddock" entry..follow-up question?Hi Phightins, Appreciate your insights re the Alan Ruddock entry- it's been very educational about how to proceed etc. I misinterpreted your 'nomination withdrawn' message from yesterday (on the at this article's entry on the Articles for deletion page) as implying that the "proposed deletion' box should now be removed ..but just got a bot issued: "level 1 warning about removing AfD template from articles before the discussion is complete.".... > Do you know if I get some sort of notification etc as to when such a deletion is appropriate etc?

Seems that some unknown user has been adding malicious and incorrect information to the page. We attempt to edit it out, but it automatically reappears within minutes. This username was the source of the change. What can we do to remedy this problem. Busynoise2 (talk) 02:39, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
Go Phightins! Yes I am. I can be reached at mark@sun-mar.com. Would also like to determine who is adding the malicious content. Some of this information is confidential and possibly damaging to the company. We have suspicions but would like to confirm the identity. How do we do this.

Firstly, let me thank you for cleaning up my game summary. That was messy and your help is greatly appreciated. I am writing to you concerning the revert from a line score back to a semi-box score. I understand that while this format is often used on many pages, it has not historically been used on college football pages. For a more common style, please see 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes football team page. Just thought I would let you know. --98.179.165.213 (talk) 02:24, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
TBBTThe fact that Raj stated he liked messing up wikipedia articles aint relevant is your opinion. If the fact that he once bought a wand from ebay is in there, I think that the fact that he stated he messed up Wikipedia articles is more relevant, even more so on Wikipedia. But whateva, It ain worth crying about.Markdarrly (talk) 18:19, 7 October 2012 (UTC) BRD enforcerI've drafted out the proposal at User:Betty Logan/BRD enforcer#"Request for stable state" project proposal. Hopefully I've addressed any concerns people had, and this is the version that will go before the Wikiproject proposal committee. It's been streamlined a bit to focus on operation and the name has been changed, but other than that it's doing the same job. Anyway, this is a message I'm dropping on everyone's page so they can check it out and make sure they are ok with it. Betty Logan (talk) 22:59, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Your review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Peter Monroe HaganA question on the AfC help desk led me to your review of that draft. It's not a BLP because the subject died in 1930, and it's not unsourced because the draft's author refers to various 1922 newspapers and a 2012 history textbook. Of course it needs improvement, but please be a little more precise when you tell the authors what they need to improve. Thanks, Huon (talk) 21:33, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

AFC NewsletterHi there, regarding your comment about helping out with the newsletter if needed, my response is, "YES!". I only proposed the idea hoping that other users would join and help with the newsletter as I don't really know what should be included. I write the newsletters for WP Good Articles so I have an idea of what to include but I don't want the 2 newsletters to be the exact same.

Your request for rollback Hi Go Phightins!. 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). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Yunshui 雲水 07:34, 15 October 2012 (UTC) AdoptionHi Go Phightins! I'm sorry I've taken so long to come back to you, unfortunately the real world has intefered with my time on wikipedia. Unfortunately, I'm not really taking on any adoptees at the moment, I've been neglecting the ones I've had for so long - it seems unfair to accept more. Have you checked out the list of adopters? They're all said in the past few weeks that they'd be willing to adopt people, so now would be a good time to ask them. You're always willing to come round to my page and ask questions too, where I can guarantee you a nice friendly response. If you don't get one, you get your money back.
