User talk:PhilKnight/Archive70Template:No Candidate Deserves My Vote! Party (UK)/meta/shortnamePlease could you reinstate this page it is part of a template for UK Political Party templates. please see Stevenage (UK Parliament constituency) for an example of what I mean. There was another page that is part of the same template set Template:No Candidate Deserves My Vote! Party (UK)/meta/color which was also deleted so now my party colour does not show and the party name is too long so it wraps round to a second line... or tell me why my template was different from any of the other political parties with similar template pages that did not get deleted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ewdev (talk • contribs) 22:58, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
Geoffrey Douglas MadgeThanks for removing the section from Geoffrey Douglas Madge: I wanted a second opinion on the possible copyvio and it seems you agreed.shaidar cuebiyar ( talk | contribs ) 08:01, 24 February 2010 (UTC) Charley the CatHi there, why did you delete my entry for Charley the Cat? You say it was deleted as an example of vandalism. This was an article in progress, and absolutely none of the information presented was in any way invalid, false, or harmful to the accumulated body of mankind's knowledge. I understand the citations need to be submitted for any information provided, however this being my first entry, I am still working on the formatting needed to embed citations. Please undo your delete of this entry, and if you will be patient, a more full article will take form, and will indeed possess the references which I believe you think I lack. Thank you for your consideration. Penguinwrestler (talk) 18:24, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
What is impartial about boycotting information which you do not possess? Did you do any fact checking before you deleted my entry, or did you just do it because you have the power to dictate what counts as vandalism versus information. Why don't you delete the article on pointy hats? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointy_hats That article seems like it's adding a lot to the library of human knowledge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Penguinwrestler (talk • contribs) 00:52, 1 March 2010 (UTC) Thanks, quite the good read. I cannot begin to express my indignation at your self righteousness. Clearly you have all the power in the world to moderate the contents of the universally accepted information database known as wikipedia. My only comfort at being labelled a vandal, comes from the fact that there isn't a single academic institution on the planet which allows information from this website to be submitted as a viable resource. I would have liked to submit my information, and use it on your website, but you, the faceless basement dweller, have thwarted me. Clearly you are a shining light to all of your kind. You may not have real power, but so help you God you can sure moderate the bejesus out of this website. Suck it. 99.254.110.121 (talk) 23:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

User:212.219.248.235Hi, i think the block for 212.219.248.235 is much too long. I think you can bloch the person for only 1 week, besides, the person can switch the IP adress. If not, please give me a reason on My Talk Page.--DailyWikiHelp (talk) 09:56, 1 March 2010 (UTC) Hi, I've just created the page The Little Lost Hen. I hope you enjoy improving and reading the page if you can. Thanks!--10:09, 1 March 2010 (UTC)DailyWikiHelp (talk) Phil, I think you ought reconsider Soledad's ban. While I'd agree he often POV pushed, I think the the Arbitration Request filed against him was done so because he wasn't pushing the "right" POV (i.e. SlimVirgin's POV). This debate is what led to SlimVirgin to file the request. If Sole hadn't been challenging Slim's wording here, I have no doubt that the request wouldn't have been filed. In other words, I think Slim's motivation here was to silence dissent on an article she feels she owns, rather than benefit wikipedia. Let me point to two quick points in Sole’s defence, 1) Looking through Sole’s offences SlimVirgin took so long to compile, I don’t think they could all really be called obviously inappropriate. For instance Slim pointed to this. Innappropriate? Maybe. But obvious POV pushing? Disruptive? And this? Frankly, I don’t even see how its POV pushing. Indeed there were other edits Slim identified which were less forgivable. But I think the list Slim compiled looks a tad inflated. 2)Many of the editors who commented on ANI, clearly have it in for Sole because he is pushing the wrong POV. Modernist, Slim, Malik, and Mbz were all involved rather vehemently in a debate w/ Sole over the Al-Durrah article. If you’re interested in doing due diligence I’d strongly suggest that you read the debate on the Al-Durrah talk page from this point to get some sense of the “faith” with which the editors involved in this debate have been proceeding. Keep in mind, that while conducting this debate SlimV first sought to arbitrate against both Slim and I with allegations of sock puppetry before launching this most recent AE. Anyway, in conclusion, I’m not contending that Sole hasn’t made some POV pushing, somewhat disruptive edits. I would contend though, that had he been pushing the same POV that some his opponents here are, there would likely not have been an issue. Given that, this block appears to be more of a “POV hit” rather than a purely legitamate block against a troublesome editor. As always, I approach in good faith, and am willing to be proven wrong. Thanks for your time. NickCT (talk) 23:07, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

--hayk (talk) 16:38, 2 March 2010 (UTC) Ashurbanipal.JPGHi PhilKnight, I was referred back to you after I've found that the deleted photo is actually of a publicly-owned art, as detailed here. This information was not known to me (and to the other editors) during the deletion discussion, so I would appreciate if you could consider re-opening the discussion, and I would also be happy to know your opinion in this matter. Thanks John Hyams (talk) 19:57, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
Striking comments from banned editors?Hey Phil, SlimVirgin and others continousily strike out (1,2,3,4)Soledad's comments in a survey. Given that the struck comments are not at face value either inflammatory,personal attacks or vanadalism my reading of Talk_page_guidelines#Others.27_comments would suggest this editting is disruptive. The editors striking the comments (which conincidently argue against thier position) claim it's appropriate as Sole has been banned. As you banned Sole, could weigh in on the appropriateness of this practice before this ends in another arbitration request? NickCT (talk) 16:51, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
GreetingsGreetings PhilKnight - I've just seen that you've had to delete yet another of my speedy delete templates. Thanks - and sorry you were troubled. Cheers!--Technopat (talk) 01:26, 6 March 2010 (UTC) Don't Bomb Me about Proposed Deletion without a proper link!Don't Bomb Me about Proposed Deletion without a proper link! You say the Clifford Geary article is being proposed for deletion and there is no note on the article page with any valid link to any discussion, there is no discussion in AfD, there is no link on the article talk page, and your stupid notice on my talk page has no valid link! What heck are you on about?! The whole deletion process for this article (if you want it deleted) has been botched! Straighten it out and don't waste my time. I'm interested in the article but not in bogus AfDs.

Proposed Deletion of Muhammad TulaimatI have contested the above PROD. Google searches using the Arabic transliteration "محمد طليمات" yeilded 5 book hits, a couple of news hits and 76 Web hits. Bear in mind that Arabic RSs are more likely to be found in Google Web Search than Google News, then I'm sure that with the help of a suitable Wiki Project, sources could be found. I don't read Arabic, unfortunately, so I can't look into it more (unless I use Google Translate a lot, and then it may not be totally reliable!) -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 16:01, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
thank you so much for deleting a work in progress by one of my studentsIt is very helpful when these articles are deleted with minimal notification. This makes encouraging our students so much more fruitful, when they know that their posts will be dramatically and promptly dealt with. I'm sure it will be easier for me to encourage others to contribute, based on this wonderful experience. Auntieruth55 (talk) 22:32, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Thirteen (House)Refering to your edit on 22nd Feb [1] don't people usually use the image of the character on the show (such as promotional images or a screencap) instead of photographs of the actress? Just some needed clarification so that if anything, I would replace the current image with a promotional picture. Thanks. --Hanaichi 12:03, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for putting the reference back in, sorry I accidently removed it! As you saw, I found a couple of other references which I used, and inadvertently removed the one which you had added during the 1/2 hour which I had spent looking for them! -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 22:56, 9 March 2010 (UTC) Rachel Maddow protectionThis appears to have been semi-protected indefinitely for editing and for 7 days for moving was that a mistake? -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 00:59, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Your help is neededHey. I need your help with something. There has been an arbitration case over the Asmahan article, I am now not allowed to change the ethnicity or nationality of a person, but I am allowed to propose changes at a talkpage. An arb explained this situation pretty good: [2] I have now talked with the drafter of the arbitration case, User talk:Wizardman, he has told me that a third part is needed and that I am allowed to invite a neutral editor to take a look at points of corrections I have presented at the talkpage. The article is in desperate need of neutral editors. I have asked several people to get involved but no one wants to. I have pointed out 7 points of correction at the talkpage: [3] I would like you to take a look at them and see if changes to the article are needed. Do you think you can get involved in this? --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 20:50, 12 March 2010 (UTC) Redundant articleHi there. Could you please delete this redirect page? The page is redundant and not required. Thank you. Amsaim (talk) 23:49, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
You prodded this article, but I've declined the prod (unwillingly) because it was kept at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Ben Watton. Please feel free to take it to AFD; it doesn't seem worthy of keeping. Nyttend (talk) 01:43, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

AIVThank you for stepping in. It's worth pointing out that the IP who interposed himself in the AIV discussion geolocates to New Jersey, which is one of the ISP's apparently used by the banned user Pioneercourthouse. The MO also fits PCH - interposing in a discussion to which he is not a party, trying to fan the flames. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 19:19, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Hello Phil, thought I'd tell you that I think that 66.159.181.74 tried to make a cheapish shot at an anti-Semitic jokelet on the Antisemitism talkpage just before you gave him a 72 hour block (not really the approved way to behave in the WP:ARBPIA area).

Unblock of 130.95.128.51I did request an unblock because I couldn't edit there, however I have also heard unofficially that the proxy was no longer open, and so was requesting the IP block be lifted. I personally don't need an unblock since I'm not forced to use the proxy, it's just a pain to switch between using it and not when editing Wikipedia. Thanks. TRS-80 (talk) 07:30, 19 March 2010 (UTC) |
