Rock-It-Ballan apology we have a problem with a user putting in inaccurate and self promotional text on the page. A group of us have been monitoring it and trying to keep on top of it (see pmhildreth's talk page). I went on there today, saw you had done an 'undo' and thought you had undone one of our undos thus bringing it back to the inaccurate self-promotional text. so I undid it commenting that you might have seen the list of edits and undos with the reasoning. I realised immediately that I had got it wrong and put it back as you left it, apologising in the edit - but I wanted specifically to apologise again here and thank you for your help in keeping the page as close to Wikipedia principles as we can. 85.211.85.180 (talk) 10:27, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

9/11 Truth MovementThe entire page is badly infested with weasel words, POV, and in general unreliable, as below: "Some of the organizations state that there is evidence that individuals within the United States government may have been either responsible for or knowingly complicit in the September 11 attacks." Considering that 9/11 Conspiracy theories covers the same grounds and without these problems, redirecting makes more sense than rewriting the entire page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.75.23.11 (talk) 09:12, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
It's not vandalism.It's using the proper characters. Spaces, when used in Japanese, are not western spaces, they are ideographic fullwidth spaces.

Jivesh • Talk2Me 10:11, 6 September 2011 (UTC) PepsiI noticed that you twice reverted an IPs removal of text at Pepsi (here and here) with the summary "unexplained removal of content". Granted, it would have been nice of the IP to provide an edit summary ... but failing to provide one isn't a reason for automatic reversal of their edits. And, if you look at the text you were restoring each time, it's pretty clear that it was vandalism content to begin with, so the anon was correct in removing it. It might be beneficial to be a little slower on the reverts so as to verify a little more closely what is being reverted. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 20:28, 8 September 2011 (UTC) Despite your final warning, the user is still uploading images from the internet that don't belong to him to player articles.

Please do not move WikiProject or Task Force pages based on your personal point of view. The MCR project was previously a stand-alone Wikiproject, but in 2009 it was deemed to be inactive and too small a scope for a stand-alone project and was absorbed into a task force of WP:EMO, the relevant parent project. That you do not think MCR is emo is irrelevant; numerous reliable sources have placed the band within the emo genre, and WikiProject Emo is the most directly relevant parent Wikiproject for this group to be a task force of. The task force page will be moved back to the proper subpage; In the future, please do not make these types of moves without discussing the matter on the relevant talk page and establishing a consensus for the move. --IllaZilla (talk) 00:29, 20 October 2011 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles.

ArchivingHi, I've set up this page for auto-archiving, as discussed. Normally, I prefer to explain how to do stuff, but in the case of archive set-up, it's easier to just do it for you. The voodoo to make it work is here; the bot should come along within about a day and kick things off. Note the archive box at the top which, currently, will say "no archives yet (create)" - don't create anything, just let the bot do its thing. It's set to 14 days (14d), you might want to change that. Note that it won't archive very small threads or things with no sigs in (ie no date) - you can cut those yourself and paste 'em into the archive page if you want. So - that's about it; no action required, just let the bot do its thing, and - if I've done it correctly - all should be well. If it goes wrong, of course, give me a shout. Cheers! Chzz ► 04:59, 11 November 2011 (UTC) Hi AG you recently reviewed my article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/UNSW_Institute_of_Languages I'm a new contributor to Wikipedia and am hoping you can give me some tips on what sort of sources I should have. The sources I've listed for this article are very similar to those on another published page, Taylors College, which I used as a model to help build my reference lists. You've noted that I need third party sources, but there is some verification there from the Australian GO8 universities, as well as a range of third-party sources external to UNSW and UNSW Global. Hoping you can help me to understand what sort of sources are required and how my sources are different to those on pages that have already been published like the Taylors College page. Any advice/info you have for me would be greatly appreciated. Claire thompson01 (talk) 05:41, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Articles for creation/Robert Devane; User talk:Shannow66Hi Hallows, Can you provide a little more detail on the items that require more inline citations? Some of the items under Martial Arts Tournaments / Various achievements are difficult to link to on the internet. Many of the organisations that operate these tournaments do not keep online records of past winners that are easily accessible. If the inline citations are required for the Charity work referenced, I would be happy to remove this item from the article until I can get a citation from each of the charitable organisations listed which can be added at a later date.

Jodhpur Flying Club articleI note that you have elected to not approve the article submitted on the Jodhpur Flying Club on grounds of insignificance. I am the Space Curator at the Canadian Air & Space Museum. The article submitted is derived from NEW research created by noted British aviation historian Peter Vacher (who amongst other things owns the Battle of Britain Hurricane Aircraft) Mr Vacher has spent a dozen years studying the birth of aviation in India. The Jodhpur Flying Club was established by the Prince of Jodhpur (Maharaja Umaid Singh) who was one of the few princes of India who dedicated all of his resources to the Allied War Effort. The Flying Club is now the location of the front-line Indian Air Force Base on the Pakistan front. The story of the club is a fundamental chapter in the story of aviation in India which involves Royalty, the Royal Air Force, Air Racing, a World War, a military base, a front line RAF AND US Army base during the war which housed entire brigades, world famous pilots, one of the wealthiest men in the world and more. The 80th anniversary of the Club just took place in front of members of Parliament and royalty. Here is a link to the story in India about the anniversary. There is a significant amount more to this story that could be added by the hundreds of war veterans who served there. It also very definitely is the history of the site of an Indian Airport (JDH), one of the busiest tourist destinations in India, (which BTW also isn't even listed on Wikipedia despite the fact that dozens of flights a DAY go there from all over India) You already have articles on the city of Jodhpur, the Maharaja of Jodhpur, the royal family of Jodhpur, the Umaid Bhawan Palace (the largest personal residence in the world and which is the HOME of the Flying Club's founder), the fort of Jodhpur and who knows how many other pages? The Flying Club was one of the most important things to ever happen in Jodhpur because it established the city as part of the critical fueling loop for the war effort in the far east. I fail to see how this would not merit an entry in the Encyclopedia since it clearly does NOT fall into the category of articles you should not create, as defined here This is an important snapshot of history in Rajasthan.

Question on Michi articleHello I submitted a new article on a martial arts subject and the edits provided a link to your talk page. It was rejected because of the use of a neologism. For the life of me, I can't see what particular instance is being referenced. Could you clarify and suggest a fix. If more references are needed, I will be happy to provide them John Hill — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jhillksr (talk • contribs) 16:08, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Actually, your edits caused me to go back an review the whole piece and I realized that it could be added to an existing article, the one on Dō (Way). The term michi uses the same character and is closely related. With a few minor edits for flow, i have already posted the changes in that one. I am going to submit another new article on narai, another martial arts topic - will you get that one to edit or could it be assigned to anyone? I've declined the G10 CSD on the above referenced AFC. "Insane Government" is the name of a news talk radio program on BlogTalkRadio, for which Victor Mikhailovsky is the host. While at first glance, void of running an online search, the article certainly appears to be an attack on a living person, but alas is not.

I really need help; reviewer has called my proposed entry "an advertisement"Here is the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Joanoleck My entry is a biography of a prominent cancer researcher named George Bosl. I have used only statements of fact about him. I used a template from a Wikipedia entry about Dr. Paul Farmer as my model. And yet the reviewer says it reads like an "advertisement." In no way (and I make my living as a writer and editor, so I know what I'm doing) have I said this guy is the "greatest" and "best" or anything of the like. I have included references to only half a dozen of his 400 medical journal articles. The rest of the links are third party magazine pieces or journal mention of his work. There is plenty of stuff on Wikipedia that praises people far more than I've done in my entry. Can someone please help me? Joan Oleck (Redacted) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joanoleck (talk • contribs) 17:30, 9 December 2011 (UTC) Hi, Hallows: I recently submitted an entry on Dr. George Bosl, a prominent cancer researcher at Memorial Sloan-Kettering in New York. You or some other reviewer said it read like "an advertisement." In response I can say that I am a very experienced writer (BusinessWeek, Newsday, freelance for the NY Times) and that I object to this characterization. All statements are statements of fact, and there are a number of links there from third party sources about Dr. Bosl, plus only a fraction (about a dozen) of his journal publications (out of400 in total). Could you or someone address my response and let me know what I have to do to get this right? I modeled it exactly on an earlier Wikipedia entry about Dr. Paul Farmer. To my mind, there is nothing objectionable or advertising related here. Thank you.

ACC request approved![]() Hi HallowsAG, thank you for interest in the account creation process. I have approved your request, welcome to the team. You may now access the interface here. Before you do so, please read the account creation guide and our username policy thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the process. You should also join #wikipedia-en-accounts connect on IRC where a bot informs us when new account requests come in and to get any advice on requests as well as the mailing list. Please note that we have implemented a policy of zero tolerance on mishandled requests, and that failure to assess correctly will result in suspension. I would like to emphasize that it is not a race to complete a request, and each one should be handled diligently and thoroughly. Currently you are allowed to create up to six accounts per day, although you won't be able to create an account with a similar name to that of another user; these requests are marked "Account Creator Needed" by the bot and "Flagged user needed" on the interface. However, if you reach the limit frequently, you can request the account creator permission at WP:PERM/ACC. Please keep in mind that the ACC tool is a powerful program, and misuse will result in your access being suspended by a tool administrator. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions. Thank you for participating in the account creation process. Again welcome! mabdul 13:00, 10 December 2011 (UTC) attempt to fix article citationsDear Hallows AG, Thank you so much for helping with my first wiki entry.

Hi there. I see you moved this from AFC to article space recently. I was just wondering why you didn't either 1) fix the large amount of external links on the page or 2) tag the article for some sort of cleanup...? I've come across a few now which just need a very small amount of attention to bring them up to usual stub standard (this one mentioned needed some external links converting to wiki-links and some minor stuff like moving refs to end-of-line), it would be good if this was completed by you when you "promote" them. If not, at least tag them thusly! Cheers, Nikthestoned 12:03, 12 December 2011 (UTC) Accounts-enwiki-l Mailing List

New Page Patrol survey
FYIHi there, Hallows_AG - I just wanted you to know that an article that you moved into mainspace has been the subject of an office action. You've done nothing wrong, and there's no way that you could have known that article was problematic (that's most of why I'm leaving this - for a record that you did nothing wrong, in case anyone should ask you). In the best judgment of our legal team, that article was problematic under US law. But again, there's no way you could have reasonably known that. :) I also didn't want you to stumble across the OFFICE page and panic, seeing an article that you'd worked on. Thanks for all your hard work. Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 23:05, 18 December 2011 (UTC) AFC question about UverseWikiHello. You've recently reviewed my article with a conclusion it lacked reliable/3rd party sources - but what kind of source is expected about a program rather than its own documentation? Does this mean that if it's generally unknown to public and has no journal/catalogue entries of its own Wikipedia cannot have an article about it? I'm not giving any offense, I merely want to know how things are. If such an article is unsuitable I'll simply leave it in my userspace. Thank you for your attention.
