If I make a mistake, or if you see a way I could edit better, please feel free to let me know. All I ask is that you be civil, and remember that I mean well.
Conversations will be continued on this talk page when they are started here.
Please do not remove any legitimate discussions, even completed ones, from my talk page. I keep all of them for reference, as my memory can be rather poor at times.
Welcome! Hello, Templarion, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place Reverting vandalismHello and thanks for reverting that vandalism on Empire state building. I've warned the offending IP on his/her talk page. Please feel free to warn users who blatantly vandalise wikipedia when you catch them in future. At the end of the day, its the only way they'll learn. Thanks and have a nice day! TheProf | Talk 21:01, 10 March 2008 (UTC) When the original author of an article, espeically with issues such as notability, blanks their article page, it is common practice to then mark the page with the {{db-author}} tag, so that it can go away quietly. I reverted your reversion to the author's blanking, then added the {{db-author}} tag, so that it, again, can go away quietly. Cheers and happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 14:14, 12 March 2008 (UTC) Your comment to my talk pageHi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button I see your position, and understand your reasons. I'm really not a bad user, and I literally spent alomost all of Labor Day Constructing that article. It's just kind of depressing that that old building had no significance in the eyes of the world. It sure ment a lot for me. I read the notability guidelines, yes, and I can guarentee the existence of both that book and the newspaper article. If you would like, I can scan the church's constitution (assuming that most churches don't have one) and the article in question if it can save that article. It's 6:40 AM here on the Eastern Seaboard, and I may be able to obtain that article by sundown on September 3rd (Eastern Standard Time). I'll scan it, quote it, whatever it takes, I just want one of my contributions to survive more than seven days... just once. :) Hello. I've removed your speedy tag, as there are notability assertions in the article. You could (should?) try WP:AFD. Thanks for tagging. --Dweller (talk) 16:54, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
Ronaldg36Is there a way to retrieve the page I created regarding DiscipleLife. It was not meant as any form of advertising but to educate people on what the term means and how it has been used in the Northern-Texas Northern Louisiana Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Please also allow me to defend or edit the page so it conforms with WikiPedia rules and standards. thanks Ronaldg36 Ronaldg36 (talk) 19:50, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
2nd chance commentsHey man, no worries at all and certainly no need to apologize. For a lot of vandals, I would want to see "seriously large improvements". I just think this guy (kid?) might actually be really trying to do "good", and I don't want to run anyone off the project who could possibly be a contributor. Tan | 39 01:48, 21 October 2008 (UTC) Speedy deletion request re: Irina YegorovaI guess the page does rank low on notability, so there's little information about the community irina has created and the proda phenomemon in russian fandom that this community started. thanks for the tag, i'll be editing the page so one has reasons to not delete the page ;-) Agramont (talk) 07:41, 26 October 2008 (UTC) Summit High School (Frisco, Colorado)I have removed the speedy tag from Summit High School (Frisco, Colorado) and expanded the article a bit. In general, all high schools are considered notable, even if the article about them is just a stub. -- Eastmain (talk) 05:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC) MolemanI saw where you made the offer, and it was good, but to me his editing history indicates his mind is made up on this. He won't change his mind and can't change the subject. Daniel Case (talk) 03:47, 6 November 2008 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun! 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. -- ForteTuba (talk) 00:34, 23 November 2008 (UTC) Family Park TycoonWhy did you put it on as advertisment it is not it is a game look at the links if you dont believe me. A Candela (talk) 15:27, 5 December 2008 (UTC) InvolvementI would like the get more involved with helping out at Wikipedia, and so I requested the account creation tool.

Speedy Deletion of Ruta 800Hello. Why are you placing the Speedy Deletion tag on the article? I'm new here and I'm concerned about this, since I'm trying to do things right. What do I have to improve on the article? Thank you in advance for your answer. Mirapaltecho (talk) 17:52, 10 December 2008 (UTC) I think I give up for today!This is frustrating :( I just wanted to write about my favorite artist, that isn't currently on Wikipedia, and well, it seems that Wikipedia is so global that local entries don't count as notable. I'm sad. Mirapaltecho (talk) 00:16, 11 December 2008 (UTC) Unblock requestsHi! I noticed you referred two blocked IP addresses to WP:ACC. What most people don't realise is that we don't handle unblock requests, and hence our system will automatically reject requests from IP addresses which have account creation blocked on Wikipedia. While this doesn't check range blocks at the moment, this is on our list of things to do. :-) Regards, Stwalkerster [ talk ] 20:04, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
I'm loathe to admit it, but it appears as if this article is legitimate. It is now referenced. I'm not sure it still meets the Speedy guidelines. Would you mind taking another look? Thanks for your time. --OliverTwisted 05:19, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Seasons GreetingsTemplarion, my very best wishes for the festive season Reverted good faith editsIf they're good faith edits, why do you revert them? Fxm12 (talk) 02:59, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
Rollbacker permission
PasswordsI see you have created a second account to protect against possible compromise. Nothing wrong with that, but just thought I would let you know that there are better ways of doing this. First of all, a lost/forgotten password can be dealt with through e-mail, see Wikipedia:FAQ/Technical#How do I recover a password I have forgotten?. You will need to have enabled e-mail on your account beforehand. Secondly, you can protect your account by pasting a hash code on your user page. If your account is ever compromised you can use this to prove to an administrator that it is your account as only you will have the key to the code. Hash codes are much harder to break than passwords. Here is a link to an online hash calculator. SpinningSpark 13:19, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
AMSTAD book articleHey man. You seem to know your way around here pretty well. So, maybe you could lend a hand with this article: Specifically, maybe you could help post a picture of the book cover. While I intend to learn the greater intricacies of dealing with media content on wikipedia, trust me when I say I'm not ready yet. Ergo, my request for you to help. --AlphaFactor (talk) 11:55, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Report any bugs or feature suggestion here. If you need help, feel free to contact me or join #wikimedia-npw. — Aitias // discussion 15:58, 23 January 2009 (UTC) Oxted SchoolPlease would you desist from deleting my entries to the Oxted School entry? I have agreed with your appraisal of "The Pirate Game". However, I have the luxury of being a member of staff at the school and I would be grateful if you would respect that. If you require further verification of my "status" please visit the school website as referenced in the entry. I appreciate that you are well intentioned, as am I. DelBoyPC (talk) 20:50, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
I can see that you have far too much time on your hands. I am very disappointed with your bigotry. I have got much more important things to do in life than contine with this petty squabble. You obviously are very well versed with the workings of Wikipedia, I am not. I hope you have enjoyed your meaningless victory over me. Fare Well. DelBoyPC (talk) 17:55, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
I have no conclusive evidence that there is anyone opposing me other than yourself. I cannot believe that the Oxted School entry is looked at often enough for my edits to be deleted with such regular monotony unless some individual with a vendetta is clocking it. I have taken on board your suggestion and take a nice long look at myself. I like what I see. Have a Great Day. DelBoyPC (talk) 18:19, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
Thankyou for the information. I am sorry but I am unable to offer the apology that you have asked for. I resent being treated as a "normal vandal" and feel strongly that it is I that is deseving of an apology from both yourself and Plumtree100. DelBoyPC (talk) 19:16, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
Haha! Have you no sense of humour? Apparently not! As you seem to be making a mission out of analysing my edits, how about having a look at everything I have edited on the Oxted School article. Perhaps with your mammouth knowledge you can look at everything that I have ever edited. If you care to do so, you will see that the only page I have altered is The Oxted School page (and related Pirate Game entry). Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot, you're always right. I'm "obviously" a vandal and not a member of the school's staff! May I suggest that delete everything that I've written on the basis that I'm obviously a liar! Alternatively you could just apologise. What you are doing is mere censorship and you are not even Wikipedia administrators. I am confused as to what exactly do you think your role is. Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't you just an ordinary user such as myself? I would be extremely grateful if you get off your high horse and come down to my level. That is the level of someone, who is actually, quite unimportant. DelBoyPC (talk) 23:31, 8 February 2009 (UTC) Wikipedia Signpost, February 8, 2009
