User talk:Pedro/Archive 11Dear Pedro, I have a promblem, a wannabe admin deleted my account of Zane Naylor. He said that it had no signifigance, although, if he had taken the time to research about Zane Naylor, he would see that Mr. Naylor is the record holder for the 2007 IHSAA Track and Field Gold Medal. After he had deleted my page, he continued to send me rude messages. At first, I ignored these messages, but he later attacked my Canadian heritage and also made insulting comments about my mother including calling her a mother f*****. I am asking you to revoke and if possible, remove his account from wikipedia. I am sorry if I have somehow messed up your webpage, but I am not that computer literate. I just needed to tell someone about this cyber bullying. Znznzn 16:33, 8 November 2007 (UTC).
Dear Mr. Canadian Accountant, I think that by deleting my page about Zane Naylor it shows that you have no consideration for people of other races, sex, color, or natioinality. This is because you show disregard and disrespect for American Athletes that are in the Olympics. If you continue to do this, I will be forced to report you to your supervisers. I hope that you get a chance to read this before you delete this just as you did with my Zane Naylor article. I hope you don't delete my comments. Since you're such a jerk that doesn't have a real job so you spend all you're time editing wikipedia for free. Plus, the only reason you dont like Zane Naylor is because he beat all the Canadians in the Olympics. Canada sucks!!! The only goodthing that came from British Columbias was Pamela Anderson! Thank you for your time, you fat nazi! sincerely Znznzn" I'm sure you know precisely what to do, and thanks for warning him in advance. Accounting4Taste 16:53, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
please delete this article again, thank you. Tiptoety 22:29, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
My (KWSN's) RFAThank you for supporting my recent (and successful!) RfA. It passed at at 55/17/6. Kwsn (Ni!) 01:10, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank you in advanceDear Pedro, it was brought to our attention today that our article about the world renowned artist, Igor Babailov, is currently in AfD status. Based on your professional judgment, you recently denied a request to delete this article, but for some reason it still remains in discussion. Igor Babailov is without question, one of the most celebrated and famous artist-realists in our century with credentials well documented including the national and international press in news articles - with media photos with world leaders, celebrities and his distinguished clientele. He is one of the only artists in the world to paint two Pope’s in a lifetime and as many leaders in the public and private sectors, and celebrities as he has. He has been featured in major news media including the New York Times, the Globe & Mail, Fox News, on major TV shows like Regis and Kelly, etc. His works are official and hang in the history of art on the walls of the Vatican Museum in Rome, at the JPII Cultural Center in DC, in presidential libraries, in Parliament, the White House, the Kremlin, at Harvard, and the list goes on and on. One of his paintings about the Columbus discovery of the America was chosen by the leading SA publishing company for inclusion into the first historical Peruvian Encyclopedia. He is a published artist, illustrator, and spokesperson for classical realism and has kudos and tributes from distinguished leaders of his contribution to promoting culture and the arts. The realm of his immense success and leadership in the arts is without question or doubt. What do you suggest in this regard for Igor Babailov to maintain his accurate profile and place on your Wikipedia listing? Thank you kindly. Mnewyork 02:27, 31 October 2007 (UTC) Dear Pedro, thank you for your message, we appreciate your assistance very much! Mnewyork 18:11, 31 October 2007 (UTC) Thanks!Thanks for the support... it is much appreciated! :) Jmlk17 10:39, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! re: "mail.com"Hello Pedro, Thanks for your efforts to restore "mail.com" to a preceding version. I admit I was ruthlessly angry! The important information has been saved. NICE WORK! Prof.rick 12:22, 31 October 2007 (UTC) (In case my user pager is already "undone", at my request, I'm Prof.rick.) A full page protection isn't required and it hasn't helped in the past. If the edit warring continues I propose that the entire page be sanctioned to 1 revert per week, where if any editor reverts content that is not a self revert or is not obvious vandalism, that editor is blocked. The blocks will increase in duration after each violation. The rule applies to both administrators and non-administrators. This will mean that the article can improve, but at the same time edit wars won't occur. Wikidudeman (talk) 14:17, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Oppose the request for full protection. See my proposal for the article on ANI. Wikidudeman (talk) 14:33, 31 October 2007 (UTC) RfaNo! I found your comments very constructive. Probably the most constructive out of all of the comments:) Its the unconstructive and unsupported ones that annoy me, like saying that I have not improved since my last Rfa.--SJP 22:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank you!
Oink? OINK? At least my "pig" support had dignity :P — H2O — 09:48, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Re: RfAI'm confused. I can't see why you can't just ask for the +sysop bit back. I know you've had immense frustration with the project in the past, but my understanding was you didn't need to go through RfA to regain your admin rights, as blocks etc. aside you relinquished the tools yourself ? Pedro : Chat 10:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank youWow, I'm flattered. Thank you -- I certainly haven't ruled that out. I was hoping for another month or few of contribs (so I can spend more time writing articles) before I thought about it though. Perhaps after the holidays? (And sorry for the short reply, but I'm in a RL time-crunch. I'll try a more detailed reply later). Best, --Bfigura (talk) 13:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC) help deskIn case you didn't know, you seemed flummoxed on the help desk, categories need a ":" to show correctly on a page e.g. [[:Category:Future events]] Otherwise the page gets added to the category. Sorry if you knew already... Regards. Woodym555 16:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC) Helpdesk UsernameDriving by the help desk, I noticed your recent post and that username is concerning. I took a quick look on Google and apparently it is the "joke" moniker of a member of this band. I'm not sure this gets him off the hook of a divisive/offensive username, even if he is this individual as, per WP:U, the name of a well known person is only acceptable if the individual is verifiably that individual.--Fuhghettaboutit 11:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi I tried to get my comment in about this page but you had deleted already. I shall paste the comment here: Explaining this pageHello. This page is part of an ongoing project to list links to all Lepidoptera genera in Wikipedia - many existing pages are orphaned and I intend to add many genus descriptions myself. Some families such as Lycaenidae contain several hundred genera and it is more practical to split the page alphabetically - I have created main page here and I will add the various subpages over the next few days. I have treated several other families this way already. See eg list of geometrid genera and its subpages to see how this will eventually work. Richard Barlow 10:56, 2 November 2007 (UTC) Will I be OK to recreate this page? Can you let me know thanks Richard Barlow 11:11, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
SpeedyDeleted UserBoxThe original SpeedyDeletion for this [1] userbox was incorrect as the content was not the same as the original. The original userbox was deleted because it referenced a campaign. The new one did not. It was deleted anyway. How do I stop the userbox being automatically added to SpeedyDelete list? Thanks. beano 11:25, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Sally Field"You like me! You really like me!" Thanks very much for your support and assistance during this process. It started almost by accident, when you contacted me about the user whose article I'd tagged with a speedy delete... I thought, "I like this guy's style of interacting with users," and figured you would be a good person to help me become an admin. And by golly, it worked!! I suppose you realize that now I have to "pay it forward" to someone if they seem to need it. I understand that I have to go and leave a message for everyone who participated in my RfA process; I have seen that these are sometimes elaborate messages in unusual formats, but my style is more about the personal message in ordinary type, so I think I'll do that, unless you have any comments to the contrary. Thanks again. Cheers, Accounting4Taste 13:30, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you recently re-deleted the user page for MSJapan... I assume you were acting upon what you saw as the user's request... but please take a second look. I beleive the page had been deleted previously (due to the user's request) but that he had second thoughts about leaving the project and has requested that it be reinstated - (see here). William Connalley had just acted upon this request, only to be followed by your deletion the next day. I have a feeling that we are dealing with simple Admin miscommunication. William probably reinstated the last version of the page... which contained the delete request... which you then acted upon in good faith, not knowing that the editor actually wished to return. Would you be willing to reinstate the page per MSJapan's most recent request. And perhaps remove the delete request, so that this does not inadvertanlty happen again. I will ask MSJapan to confirm his desire to reinstate on the talk page. Thanks Blueboar 19:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC) I had asked for my userpage to be undeleted, and you deleted it again...Could you fix that? MSJapan 19:12, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Standard standing article deletedHey Pedro. I recently wrote an article about a band called Grey Rose. A few hours after, I discovered it was deleted. I published it again with a request that it won't be deleted, with an explanation that this article is nothing but a well-written, neutral article, yet it was deleted again, by you. Please explain why. --Peter wolf 11:15, 3 November 2007 (UTC) LaraLoveI know you are out this weekend, so I wanted to personally let you know that the late transclusion of Lara was my fault. I created the page and was asleep when she accepted the nom. Please don't hold that against her, dood. the_undertow talk 23:25, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Thanks!
Lara RfASorry I pre-!voted; sorry this bothered you. I see your point about potential for gaming the sytem. I respectfully disagree with your point, since the folks who watch RfA (including esp. the 'crats) are not blind enough to let such deliberate gaming pass uncontested. Sorry that we met amidst my faux pas. See you around! --Ling.Nut 03:15, 4 November 2007 (UTC) GlassCobra's RfA
ThanksThank you for voicing your opinions in my recent RFA which unfortunately did not pass at (47/23/5). I will be sure to take the advice the community has given me and wait till someone nominates me next time as well as improve my editing skills. Have a great day(or night)! --Hdt83 Chat 05:52, 5 November 2007 (UTC) MajorlyHey Pedro, just noticed your vote at Majorly's RfA. Considering that nigh on 100 editors have lauded Majorly for his nobility and dedication to the project by going through another RfA and risking his tools, I thought I would come and ask you to reconsider. I don't think it's really about ego, I think it's about making sure the community still supports him. GlassCobra 14:09, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Henrik's RfA thanks!Thanks for supporting my RfA, it closed today with a final tally of 39 supports, 1 oppose and 1 neutral. As always, if you ever see me doing anything which would cause you to regret giving me your support, let me know. henrik•talk 18:57, 5 November 2007 (UTC) Re:Admin?Hi, thanks for the offer and the kind words but I have no intention of becoming an admin, now or anytime in the foreseeable future. I think adminship is a dirty business and I do not want any part of it. :P Besides, I do not see the point in going through a grueling week for something I probably will not use often (or ever). - TwoOars (Rev) 21:04, 5 November 2007 (UTC) In Remembrance...

There's a charming little note posted on the bottom of my talk page which I've preserved because it made me laugh; what I'm wondering about is the comments on the user page of the author User:Znznzn. I think this will happen more and more as I work on new page patrol, which is why I've already semi-protected my user page, but I'm wondering just what the policy is on comments like this; how, if at all, do I get rid of them, and under what policy? Thanks, from your fat Canadian Nazi friend... Accounting4Taste 17:26, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
AdminsHi there, as a frequent commentator at RfA, I wondered if you might join the modest push I'm making at the moment to get more admin candidates nominated. Anybody come to mind? Tim Vickers 17:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Only 800 mainspace edits and those in the last three months. Maybe next year, but he hasn't a chance of passing at the moment. Tim Vickers 19:08, 7 November 2007 (UTC) ConceptBaseHi Pedro, I regret that you deleted the page on ConceptBase (which I wrote). The system is a prototype used for research and education. I don't see why the page was classified to be an advertisement. But it's prpobably your decision. Cheers: Manfred Jeusfeld —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.56.127.246 (talk) 11:57, 7 November 2007 (UTC) QuestionI am a little confused. One one of the RFA's I saw you commenting about people voting before transclusion. What exactly is transclusion, and "hidden voting". I have seen this mentioned before but it completely confuses me as to what it is. What does someone do to be determined as "hidden" voting. Thanks, I have been wondering about this for awhile and when I saw you mentioning it I wanted to ask. Thanks. --businessman332211 19:54, 7 November 2007 (UTC) TransclusionThanks for the kind words. Businessman332211 has been doing most of the work on the nomination but it might be that they need a hand dotting the "i"s and crossing the "t"s. I am not familiar enough with things to be able to offer and specific advice. Cheers. (Emperor 23:24, 7 November 2007 (UTC))
Amy BelleI started a page "Amy Belle", deleted by you, with comment "db-nonsense". As a newbie of wiki, I'm not quite sure why -- too short? or violate copyright? Anyway, just a feedback. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Athos.jingle (talk • contribs) 00:07, 8 November 2007 (UTC) Another RfA Spaming

OhanaUnited's RfAThanks for voting at my RfA. Unfortunately, the result stands at 51 support, 21 oppose and 7 neutral which means that I did not succeed. As many expressed their appreciation of my works in featured portals during my RfA, I will fill up the vacuum position of director in featured portal candidates to maintain the standards of featured contents in addition to my active role in Good articles. Have a great day. OhanaUnitedTalk page 04:09, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Amy BelleThank you for your quick reply. Now I understand. Actually I don't know much about Amy Belle (directed from Rod Stewart), so maybe others are more suitable to start this page.

I didn't exactly bite, but you could definitely say I nipped. Apparently I can express myself and still be helpful, and the occasional newbie reacts well. Believe me, I was regretting my nip 30 seconds after I placed my response on his talk page, so I think this has been a lesson in more ways than one. In future, MUCH more polite, on my honour!! (And I'm sorry that the child at the top of this page picked you to try it on with -- he got blocked by a bystander, and I'm not a bit sorry.) My work with the mop has been very satisfying, although most of it has been new page deletion. I feel as though I should "pay forward" your kindness by offering to coach someone, but I will wait until I have a little more generalized experience under my belt. Cheers!

I know that it's a little late for this, but I'll continue to give out cards until November 10th. --Zacharycrimsonwolf 14:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC) Request for helpYou previously indicated that you might be willing to help transclude this page onto the page of active nominations: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Emperor. If you're still willing to do so, any help would be appreciated I think. None of the rest of us have a clue how to do it apparently.
