[edit] Translation request (Transrapid, German > English) comments:
I have moved Translation Transrapid German English to Transrapid/German. No strong feelings - just seemed a slightly better working title. -- RHaworth 18:20, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hi RHaworth! :-)
- Cheers for the move mate! I didn't think that the "/" character could be used in an article name, hence my original choice! :-)
- On another note, would you mind having a quick look at the template at the top of the page? The code and content is fine, but I think I may have linked it in to the wrong category! :-|
- Farewell and many thanks for helping this Wikipedia newbie! :-)

If the template was needed, it would have been created before now. Don't worry - just leave it. Others may find it and edit it. -- RHaworth 18:42, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Asatru
Dear Hyperspeed
thank you for living up to your name! You are the first additional contributor to the Faith Userboxes gallery. I knew about Norse Pagans and I wanted to include your religion, but didn't know the correct name with which to look it up. Nice one bro!

[edit] Speedy delete of Quarantine_(nightclub)
Greetings! Copied from WP:HD, per your request:
According to the article's deletion log, it was deleted by Jaranda (talk). The "A7" refers to the following (from WP:Speedy):
Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content. An article about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject. If the assertion is likely to be controversial or there has been a previous AfD, the article should be nominated for AfD instead.
Should you wish to appeal the deletion, please see: Wikipedia:Speedy deletions#Appealing speedy deletions
I hope this helps. —XhantarTalk 00:28, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Xhantar! Thanks for your help with my query (And digging it out of the deletion log as well!) and providing the handy links. Although I will agree that the article was a bit sparse (I created it as a stub) I was planning to edit more in over time. Would it be worth re-posting the article if I cite the clubs position and standing in the local community, or is it best left alone?

- You can repost, as long as you are able to assert its notability, per Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). The speedy deletion criterion for "reposted content that was deleted according to deletion policy" only applies if the content is "substantially identical" (under any article title) — not if you added a lot of new information.
-
- If you again find yourself with an article that is nominated for speedy deletion, you can add the {{hangon}} template to the top of the article (without removing the speedy delete template), to indicate that you contest its deletion and plan on adding the required information. —XhantarTalk 01:15, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Userboxes/Faith
Dear Hyperspeed
The Userboxes/Faith gallery that I created last month and to which you added the Asatru userbox seems to have been vandalised. All the userboxes that I, you and other Wikipedians had added have been removed. The edit history of the Userboxes/Faith gallery from before 8 March seems also to have been removed. All my edits of the Userboxes/Faith gallery have been removed from my personal list of Wikipedia edits (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Motacilla).
The contents of Userboxes/Faith gallery have been replaced with few userboxes all but one of which are for Judaism, orthodox Judaism and the Kaballah. With one exception, these edits seem to have been made by a user called Java7837. Java7837's editing seems to constitute vandalism.
The only other userbox is one for Brights added by a user called Roberth Edberg. I do not believe that Roberth Edberg has done any damage to the Userboxes/Faith gallery.
The Wikipedia/Vandalism page says that if I believe a page has been vandalised I should restore it and choose the appropriate warning template to ask the vandal to stop. But I do not know how to restore the page in this circumstance: its history is missing and I have no record of all the userboxes that it contained or where I and other contributors found them.
The missing edit history also makes me fear that Java7837 knows much more than I do about how to change things on Wikipedia. I do not want him to wage an edit war against me and I am afraid lest he might want to attack my own userpage!
I am new to Wikipedia and I don't know much about computers. Please are you able to advise me: what should be done about the Userboxes/Faith userpage and about Java7837, and should I be the person to do it? Motacilla 22:49, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
