Mark VI monorail

Seems like every time I work on a page, Kralizec! has to come along and mess it up. Always looking for stupid little things wrong so he can delete the article. Like "It is also important that the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone" what the hell does that mean? It's text, it's read. It's technical information. No other way to put it then to just post it. What good is an encyclopedia that people can't get information out of? And how can people read the information if he keeps deleting it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by HeadMouse (talk • contribs) 07:57, 9 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Mark VI monorail

Thanks for pitching in at Mark VI monorail and helping to keep the situation calm. When I tagged the article as being a {{copyvio}}, I did not revert it to an earlier, copyvio free version because all of that Disney-specific info had since been moved ([1], [2]) to Walt Disney World Monorail System and this article was just about the monorail trains themselves. However as you are a member of WikiProject Trains, I will defer to your good judgment. --Kralizec! (talk) 15:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Excess mustard!

In response to your request at the HD, I have look into the problem. You had, and may still have, closing font tags in which included "style", which is not a valid HTML tag. It should be just:
</font>
I fixed as many as I could see, but I think you may also be missing some closing tags altogether, and you're probably better placed to spot that than I am, as you're familiar with your archive. If you can get all the closing tags in the right places, your mustard excess should be reduced! Hope that helps. Adrian M. H. 15:49, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry

Look guys and gals. I apologize for the recent reactions I have displayed. I have been having a REALLY bad week which is not you all's fault. and I should not have taken it out on you. I accept my 48 hrs block and would understand even a 7 day block for my most recent statement. I ask that you please understand and forgive me and give me a 2nd chance.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 21:52, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

November 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. It would be appreciated if you would not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Corning (Amtrak station). Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. The referenced article qualifies under CSD A7 because it does not demonstrate any particular notability, despite having references. What makes this bus station any more notable than any other bus/train station in the country? — KieferSkunk (talk) — 01:39, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion proposal follow-up

Thread copied from KieferSkunk's talk page:

Thank you for taking the time to speak to me on my talk page about the Corning (Amtrak station). I certainly do not wish to interfere with consensus, but the speedy deletion process would not have allowed time for any consensus to be constructed. I should have told you of my actions on your talk page, sorry about that, and I thank you for extending the courtesy that I failed to extend. Cheers!--MrFish^Go Fish 03:09, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. :) For future reference, if an article is nominated for speedy-deletion, you can place a {{hangon}} tag directly below the CSD template, so that admins are notified that you intend to improve the article. Note that this may not save the article from being deleted, but in "edge cases" like this one, it would probably help. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 04:15, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there!

Hi there! You probably don't remember me, but no matter; I was just wondering how your WikiLife was going and whether I could be of any use (I have an essay to do, you see, and procrastination is my motto). Cheers, Master of Puppets ^Care to share? 02:49, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And good to see that you're still active! It takes a valiant soul to withstand the soul-crushing depression of seeing so many immature mouth-breathing *expletive deleted*s trying to mess up an excellent project. I'm still ashamed of my one year break. Hopefully now I can help stem this tide of vandals (is it just me or are there more and more each day?). And remember, trust not the edit count! :P I'll stay in touch, Master of Puppets ^Care to share? 03:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Your edit count is great, so don't fret. I could even nominate you for admin, if you ever feel like being nominated. Master of Puppets ^Care to share? 03:08, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'll probably stop by some time in the near future and nominate you. Have a great time 'til then! :) Master of Puppets ^Care to share? 16:53, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Berkley Mall - Goldsboro

I have nominated Berkley Mall - Goldsboro, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Berkley Mall - Goldsboro. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

On February 14, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Mauch Chunk and Summit Hill Switchback Railroad, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Well done. Keep on editing swimmingly! Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:19, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
