Hello, how are you?; I just wanted to know the reason why you think the "Critical Reception" section has a problem with neutrality. Also it would be helpful if you could let me know how we can fix it. If you think this dispute needs more discussion, you can start a section in the article talk page. Have a good day and reply back. Thanks, Krzna (talk) 18:40, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

yea, i get it now. Thanks for answering. - Krzna (talk) 18:53, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If a page needs to be moved to a new title then the move tool should always be used. Copying and pasting the content (which is what someone did here) destroys the edit history, which we need to keep for legal reasons. Hut 8.5 19:35, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thanks for letting me know. I'll do that next time. ToastyMallows (talk) 19:36, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey mate, please be more careful with speedy deletion tags, as that article did not qualify for A3. And I'm not telling you this because I love pointless bureaucracy; the article's author is a new editor (you can tell since they have few edits), and I'm sure you can imagine the effect seeing a giant red sticker with the words "no content whatsoever" on an article they took the time to write might have. Looking at your own contribution history I understand that you are relatively new yourself, so I'm trying to be nice about it, but please do bear it in mind, as we lose a lot of new editors this way.

Faultless Starch

There's nothing necessarily wrong with recreating a deleted page, provided the recreated version doesn't qualify for deletion for the same reason. (If it does, the page will just get deleted again.) However it looks like the creator tried to get around the copyright issue by changing the occasional word, which isn't good enough (see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing). I've removed the offending text and I'll leave them a message about it. Hut 8.5 20:06, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for responding, this was my thought process exactly. ToastyMallows (talk) 20:07, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin

I look at the notable section at the Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin and the various articles and came to the conclusion that it was not clear if the individuals where from Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin. I therefore acting in good faith removed the notable section. Thank you-RFD (talk) 20:28, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

One Way Street (song)

Why did you tag One Way Street (song) as {{disputed}}? There is no evidence of any dispute on the page, and you did not explain in an edit note or on the talk page. Please do not scatter tags around articles in this unhelpful way. I have removed the tag. PamD 08:08, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nabil Salameh

I have seen you "Added tags to the page using PageTriage" and I want to thank you for your contribution. I created the "Nabil Salameh" entry myself some time ago and tried to insert references to the related info's for as much as I could. I can see now the page is marked with the upper note "This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. Please help by adding reliable sources. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous or harmful. (August 2012)" which was not appearing before. I am of course sure the info's I inserted are real... Apart from looking for more references in the net, can you give me more advise, please, and tell me if I can remove that note in the meantime? Thank you.

January 2013

Hello, I'm Happysailor. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Huang Zongxi without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, - Happysailor (Talk) 17:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't remove it, the user below my revision did and then you undid my revision. ToastyMallows (talk) 18:04, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, sorry about that, usually it tells me if someone else is reverting it and cancels my action - Happysailor (Talk) 18:08, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination

Hi, I noticed that you flagged my article about Automation Machine for Hosted Desktops for speedy deletion. Could you please elaborate on that? There are many product pages on Wikipedia, and we tried to write our article in a factual way.

Thanks.

Mirjam84 (talk) 09:08, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Mirjam84, I nominated your article for speedy deletion on the grounds of WP:NOTFORPROMOTION, mainly meaning that your article would have needed a significant rewrite to become encyclopedic. Yes, there are many encyclopedia pages for products, but it is just that, for products. Not to advertise or market for a product. Feel free to try and rewrite and resubmit your article. Use these product pages as a template: CCleaner, BleachBit, TeraCopy ToastyMallows (talk) 13:26, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I nominated your article for speedy deletion because I could not find any sources to back up any of your claims. Furthermore, your article did not meet, WP:NOTE. ToastyMallows (talk) 13:23, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination

Hello. You flagged my article about Avalon (Finnish band) for speedy deletion. I edited the article adding references and categories. Please check it again and explain your reasons, in case you don't approve, as I don't understand the reasons for flagging the article.

Thanks (Mpaoxi (talk) 19:03, 15 March 2013 (UTC))[reply]

I apologize. After the article is flagged, it can only be removed by an administrator, which I am not. After reading your additional sources and looking more into it, I was wrong for tagging it. Understand that I see multiple pages a day that do fit that criteria for a speedy deletion. Accept my apology as an AGF. ToastyMallows (talk) 23:20, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another Speedy deletion nomination

Thanks for deleting the page I created. It was a work in progress. Might as well just delete all of Wikipedia while you're at it. I mean, does ANYTHING have significance? If you say it doesn't then just chuck in the trash. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sistertwisted (talk • contribs) 22:12, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I only tagged the article, I didn't delete it. An admin agreed with my tag. Please consider that I review multiple new pages a day. As I do understand it was a work in progress, you should read up on WP:N, as your page did not meet the criteria for notability. Please also see Wikipedia:CSD#A7. Just because you have a page on IMDb, does not make your movie notable. ToastyMallows (talk) 23:21, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Scharoun Ensemble

Why did you "unreview this? Apparently you marked it reviewed again a few seconds later. BTW, the tag that you placed on the article is wrong. There is a source (albeit not an independent one), but for a mere stub that is not really a problem, as this seems to be notable enough for inclusion. --Randykitty (talk) 14:11, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I felt it needed another look by someone, wasn't sure if it was notable. I went ahead and changed the tag to 'needs more references'. I apologize for the confusion. ToastyMallows (talk) 14:15, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Camp Scottsbluff

This page--Camp Scottsbluff, or Talk About Camp Scottsbluff--should not be speedily deleted because... My only reason for posting the information is that when I came across the listing about Camp Scottsbluff, it said no information was available. So I wrote what I knew from personal experience with, and at, the camp. While it definitely wasn't filled with specific facts, I thought what I wrote was better than nothing, might be of interest, and might even help someone else in doing further research.Stan Delahoyde (talk) 17:21, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Articles shouldn't be based solely on personal experience and non-specific information that may or may not be true. Feel free to try and find some more sources and secondary sources to try and resubmit your article. Please don't include first hand experience/slander/hearsay/etc. Please see any correctly cited article for more information on how to write a good article, or read WP:FIRST.

Francis Rodino wiki page

Hi, I'm Francis Rodino. I attempted to delete my own wikipedia page as it's full of inaccurate info and private content I do not want to be public. Can you please advise on how I can get the page deleted completely? Thanks, Francis

This is not a valid reason for deletion. Anything that is inaccurate or without a source should be removed immediately. See WP:BLP. ToastyMallows (talk) 18:16, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know why people keep messaging me about this page, all I did was add some tags to it to clean it up. If he's not a musician, then change the page and back it up with sources. ToastyMallows (talk) 12:31, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

John Bielenberg

Hi Toasty Mallows, I'm a new editor on wikipedia. I addressed some of the issues for the John Bielenberg article:

  • This article is an orphan, as no other articles link to it. (March 2013)

How can i ask for help to improve the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vibhabamba (talk • contribs) 20:02, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Vibhabamba, thanks for asking. Basically, this page needs to have at least one link from another Wikipedia page. User pages, talk pages and disambiguation pages don't count. For more extensive information, please see WP:ORPHAN. Keep in mind this is not a serious issue, but one that will eventually need to be resolved. Also, in the future, please sign your comments with 4 tilde marks, see Wikipedia:Tips/How_to_sign_comments ToastyMallows (talk) 20:14, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

deOrphaning script

Hello everyone! I was just working on responding to a couple bug reports for a script that I worked up as part of a request from this project, and I noticed that only a couple people (who weren't even on this mailing list) are actually using the script. A little history on the script: In March of 2014, Jim Cartar came to my user talk page and said he needed some help in acquiring a script for a backlog drive that he was working on that could keep track of and score deOrphanings for a scored backlog drive. I took that request to the project's talk page (BackLog Drive "DO" (De-Orphaning) script proposal) and there was near unanimous support for this. I thought about the proposal and decided the best way to do it was to build a new script (which is still no where near as comprehensive as Manishearth's OrphanTabs) and build into it a mechanism that will make BLD scoring easy.

What I'm wondering at this point is, since there appears to be only two people using the script, should I continue to develop this script with a goal of using it for scoring BLDs or just debug the existing script and leave it at that. Thanks for any replies or comments.

If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Opted-out of message delivery to your user talk page.
