[edit] Your AfD Closure

It seems like you prematurely closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Muslim Islamic jurists inproperly. To begin with, you stated that the consensus was speedy delete when no one voted that. Second, you seemed to have ignored the secondary articles (Muslim businessmen, Muslim leaders, etc) as they not only are not deleted, but they also still have the AfD templates on their page. I suggest you reopen the discussion (as there really is no consensus) and let people continuing dicussing the merits of the five articles. joturner 11:36, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] puzzled about deletion

I started an article on the band The Schwag. It was almost immediately deleted for being "non-notable". I don't understand why, since it should pass according to the following criterion:

"Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or the local scene of a city (or both, as in British hip hop); note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability."

They have been playing the Midwest scene since the 80's and are the "most prominent representative" of the rock jam style in the Midwest. Everybody who is into this style of music around here knows who they are and what Schwagstock is. I was getting ready to add pictures and the article disappeared.

[edit] Deletion of article on Sidney Fooks

I am very saddened by your decision to delete the article on Sidney Fooks. There were 7 votes to retain/keep the article and only 4 to delete it. There are no copyright problems whatsoever - this issue should never have been raised.

A huge amount of time and effort obviously went into the article and it is of undoubted historical interest to those who study the First World War and to those whom he taught over a lifetime's career as a teacher at the Harrow County School in Middlesex, England. The Grammar School no longer exists as such, although the buildings are still used today for a Comprehensive School, but there is a huge Harrow County School historical archive in a room in the original building, there are annual Remembrance Day services for those old boys that gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars and there is a very active web site run by Jeffrey Maynard in New York. There are annual reunions and dinners when old boys travel from all over the world to meet each other. The life story of this particular former teacher of the School who lived to such an exceptional age will always be of interest to former pupils - that was how I found the Wikopedia article, from a link on the Harrow County web site.

I have, since reading the article, done some new research and found his name mentioned in a number of entries in the London Gazette which I could have added. Also, as I mentioned before it was deleted, the article may stimulate research into the citation for the award of his Military Cross.

I ask you to please reconsider your decision and reinstate this article. Thank you.

Philip Levi.

[edit] ElAmericano image

As discussed on my talkpage before, the image you deleted was perfectly legal for me to use. It was a simple screenshot of a word on my computer, not even any software. Please restore it ASAP. - ElAmericano (dímelo) 15:30, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about the header. I forgot to put [[:Image... etc.]]. As to the image, I think I'm the one who accidentally qualified it as "fair-use" because I saw the word screenshot and decided to use it. Now, I've tagged it as it should have been - an image I created. (The font is a free one.) Thanks for the explanation, though. I was really frustrated. - ElAmericano (dímelo) 20:10, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

It's a screenshot of Kate's tool, which is presumably covered under {{wikipedia-screenshot}}. I had searched carefully for this template before, but I couldn't find it when I uploaded the image. However, the fact that I took the image from Kate's Tool should have made it clear that the image could be included in Wikipedia. Please read image description pages more carefully in the future; it was very cool to discover that I had exactly 10,000 edits and I'll never be able to reproduce that image again without forging it. Ingoolemo ^talk 23:35, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Addendum: Interiot's tool is in the public domain, which presumably makes Kate's tool as well. Again, I searched for the proper tag but couldn't find it. However, the fact that I used Kate's tool should have indicated that the image was not completely copyrighted. Ingoolemo ^talk 23:39, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

The reason I deleted the image was because it was listed here, as an orphaned fair use image that had not had its copyright status updated or been used in an article for 7 days after the tag was put on it. The other day, I went through a little over 1300 of those, and I didn't stop and look at any of the images as I was deleting them. They were all on the page, they all got the delete. I'm sorry for deleting your image, but like I said just now, I just plain didn't see the image. Sorry! :( Mo0[talk] 14:25, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

No harm done, I can't tell you how many times I've been in the same situation as you are. Besides, I was able to find it in my Recycle Bin. Thanks for all your work to keep Wikipedia free of copyvios. Ingoolemo ^talk 18:34, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RfA thanks!

[edit] Your welcoming UBox

I noticed your friendly-towards-newbies userbox, and saw that the "Leave a message here directed one towards Adam1213's talk page, instead of yours. You may have copied it off his page, but now I suggest you fix it up a little, just so people aren't confused. Thanks! Jfingers88 04:30, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] vandalism counter

I think you might have to up it again....

I (and some other people) reverted the obvious vandalism. The one change I wasn't sure about was the random addition of the word furry to your user page from an anon IP. It doesn't make sense in context, but it also doesn't make sense as vandalism. I've decided to play it safe and do nothing and leave it for you. --Bachrach44 03:36, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RfA thanks!

Thanks for voting! Hello Mo0/Archive 4, and thank you so much for voting in my recent RfA. I am pleased to inform you that it passed with a final tally of (119/1/3), into the WP:100, so I have now been cleared for adminship and will soon be soaring above the clouds. I was overjoyed, shocked, and humbled by the tally, and, most importantly, all the support. Thank you. If there is ever anything you need, you know where you can find me. Take care.

Don't let all that DC traffic get to you :) --Pilot|guy 22:49, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please go to Talk:Polisario Front

You are one of 3 members of a dispute in this article. I will revert all changes made untill this is resolved, and consider it vandalism. I have left a similar note on the other two disputees talk pages as well. Thanks for your cooperation. False Prophet 01:29, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not wheel warring...

Hi Mo0! You, me and a couple of others were just busily deleting a raft of Outer Limits episodes as copyvios. Most of them were, but a couple were the nominator being a bit overzealous. Therefore I've undeleted two things you deleted: Lithia (episode) and Double Helix (episode) - neither of which have substantive material copied from the website in question (and what material might have been copied is also available in a dozen other places anyway).

I didn't want you to think I was wheel-warring or being a dick about it so I thought I'd let you know! Cheers mate! ➨ ЯEDVERS 20:31, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Turdsauce

HOW WAS I VANDALIZING? ROSEANNE REALLY DID SAY THAT TOM ARNOLD HAD A THREE INCH PENIS, YOU LIFELESS TURDBURGER WITH EXTRA TURD SAUCE! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.85.251.209 (talk • contribs).

How are you compensated for being up at three o'clock in the morning stopping jerks like me from vandalizing Wikipedia? I'm just curious. I can't imagine anybody would do it just for fun, because it doesn't seem that fun. If you got paid or compensated with free punch and pie, then I would understand.

[edit] Brandt

Huh. A certain Mr. Brandt seems to be taking the approach: Do something silly and end up on http:// www.wikipedia - watch.org/hive2.html PDQ. Congrats. -- 75.26.4.64 00:36, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] O-TOWN'S AT

1) I did not threaten anyone, 2) You were brought in or joined on this as a third party so maybe you should know that I work to stop vandalism. I don't have any intention of vandalising any pages and the mistake I made I originally apologized for. 3) I don't appreciate your hawking me at all. It is annoying so stop. Just because you are an admin, doesn't mean that you can be a dick yourself. O-TOWN'S AT 07:11, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Regarding your warning to this user on his talk page, he has persisted in removing warnings again today. I think he might benefit from a 24 hour block. He seems to be using Wikipedia as a sort of lonely hearts club; see [1], [2], [3].

(That first one worries me the most)

He has also encouraged another user to vandalise [4], threatened us with his "admin friends", violated WP:NPA. What do you think? I could take it to ANI if you prefer. --Guinnog 17:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I see he's been indef blocked now. Good. --Guinnog 17:55, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Not a problem. It's always good to feel one is not alone on things like this. --Guinnog 18:58, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You've got a Thank you card!

[edit] Apology

i dont believe i actually did remove anything. nothing i recall anyways. sorry if i did.

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Daily Newsletter

The above AfD was closed by you back in mid-July as a delete. An article with the same name, The Daily Newsletter has been recreated this past weekend. I am wondering how it can be confirmed if this is the same content thus qualifying for a speedy tag. If not, it would need to go through a second AfD because it is different content. Thanks.--Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 15:17, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unfair Accusation of Vandalism

This individual has recently unfairly accused me of vandalism. I made what I felt to be an informative contribution to the gayle king page, which he apparently didn't agree with. This individual is a poor quality moderator who seems to like to abuse his powers, which I feel he should have revoked. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.160.121.83 (talk • contribs) 00:27, 3 October 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Stating the obvious

youre pretty ugly for a gay anime fan

Just wanting to contact you on your deletion of an article related to australian comics, can you get back to me

Also i didn't write that gay comment. Don' t know how else to contact you...my username is awcomix

[edit] hey m00

you are the worst

Also bring back the brendle article you piece of shit.

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Game (song)

You closed the above Afd as delete back in July/06. An article has been created Oct 8th and I consider it to be just as non-notable as it was previously, but wonder if it would quality under speedy. Would you be willing to review the content of the deleted entry and the current entry to determine if it is a reposting or should be re-nominated at Afd. Thanks.--Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 23:56, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

so i'm about to put on you're profile that you're flaming gay, but i look down at your queerboxes and see that you literally are our
