Champions League qualifying process

Check this page to see how wrong you were. – PeeJay 19:50, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

First of all, I apologise for my tone in my above message; it wasn't warranted. Anyway, no I don't think you should change last season's article. I'm fairly sure this is a new change for this year. – PeeJay 21:38, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Recent foreign relations article moves

Please revert your recent moves of foreign relations articles. WP:DASH states that "disjunctive en dashes are unspaced, except when there is a space within either one or both of the items", and none of the articles you moved had items with internal spaces. Dabomb87 (talk) 14:57, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Apologies, reverted all the ones I changed. Was a bit of a waste of time overall eh? lol Delusion23 (talk) 16:50, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Ditto above regarding the name of the Irish state. These are not uncontroversial moves. Please see WP:IRE-IRL regarding the name of the state and appropriate usage. Islands, obviously, cannot have foreign relations. RashersTierney (talk) 17:31, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Done Delusion23 (talk) 19:03, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your prompt response. Best. RashersTierney (talk) 21:20, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

I think I moved all of these properly, but let me know if you notice any errors. Cheers, Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 04:07, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for changing them, the countries are all correct but in most cases you've used a hyphen "-" instead of an endash "–". It should be an endash according to the W:MOS. Could these be changed? Thanks :) Delusion23 (talk) 08:57, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Just noting that Sphilbrick (talk · contribs) has tidied all those up and they now conform with MOS:DASH. Jenks24 (talk) 19:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Awesome! Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 01:02, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Austria–Hungary RM

Hi there, you might be interested in having a look at Wikipedia talk:Requested moves#"Time could not be ascertained", which is discussing your move request at the Austria–Hungary relations article. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 19:11, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll check it out. Delusion23 (talk) 20:44, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Vegaswikian appears to have solved the problem, so no need to start a new RM. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 21:05, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Level 11 side in the 2011–12 FA Cup

I'll get back to you on that one mate, there are definitely a few though, not a lot, but a few. RednessInside (talk) 09:28, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Thanks mate Delusion23 (talk) 10:14, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

My mistake, there is only one Level 11 club, Friar Lane & Epworth. Hope this helps. RednessInside (talk) 19:46, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Categorisation

Hello Delusion. Can I ask that you stop removing football clubs from league categories. Clubs remain in the categories even once they have left the league. I will try and go through and restore them all, but if you could help as well, that would be great. Thanks, Number 57 12:45, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that Number57, wasn't aware that they kept the categories. If that's the case then there's a lot of categorisation that needs doing as most of the clubs I've seen only have the league they're currently in so I assumed that was the norm. Will try and restore as many as I can. Delusion23 (talk) 12:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

OK, no problem, I think I have managed to get all the ones you have done today! Cheers, Number 57 12:52, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

PS - thanks for filling up the CCL category - I created it quite recently but hadn't yet added most of the clubs to it! Currently I am cleaning up a lot of non-league league articles and trying to categorise the clubs correctly. Thank god I have recently discovered the joy of AWB! Number 57 12:53, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

No worries, always looking to help out on the non-league articles. Still need to get AWB, if it's that good then I may consider using it instead! All the categories and endashes etc. can get very repetative after all. Delusion23 (talk) 12:56, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I've been editing for years and had never used it before, but it's a godsend for doing stuff like this. Number 57 12:59, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

New football stub types

Greetings! A stub template or category which you created has been nominated for renaming or deletion at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion.

WikiProject banners

Hi, I noticed you added a WikiProject banner to the Video Pieces article. Just a reminder that these belong on talk pages. I have moved the banner accordingly. Have a nice day, Cloudz679 (talk) 08:49, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Ooops! I was tagging all the Iron Maiden tours and albums that needed them on their talk pages, must have pressed edit on the actual article page on that one as I was going through them pretty fast. Thanks for sorting it out :) Del_♉sion23 (talk) 10:30, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Commons images

Re File:RoryPatterson.jpg, etc.: these images are already in Commons category F.C. United of Manchester. They do not need categorising here. Why did you not do this edit? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:21, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Ahhh, I didn't know you could do that. Learn something new everyday. Thanks :D Del_♉sion23 (talk) 16:29, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

No worries, glad it helped :D I've copied it to my user page. First ever barnstar, thanks! Del_♉sion23 (talk) 15:42, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

You're welcome, but you did deserve a barnstar for that though... – Plarem ^{(User talk contribs)} 09:52, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Shaolin Popey

Hi. I've declined your speedy 'cos you can't A7 a movie. A7 is people, groups of people and web content. (I sometimes think I'm becoming web content myself...) This article was written by a Chinese student in a school/college project that User:Anna Frodesiak is keeping an eye on. Might be worth having a word with her. Cheers. Peridon (talk) 14:06, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, must have misread the beginning line of the article, though it was badly formatted so that may be why :( Del_♉sion23 (talk) 14:07, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Schastyenium

I've declined your A7, because it's got no people or web stuff in it. I've prodded it (and am waiting for them to remove it...), and you're very welcome to prod2 it. Do watch your A7s. Cheers. Peridon (talk) 17:20, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

The article is obviously a college in-joke or something so I don't think it deserves the week in the sunshine that the PROD will give it. It's definately not notable and its notability hasn't been shown so I don't know which other speedy delete tag to tag it with. Del_♉sion23 (talk) 17:25, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Neither do I, or it wouldn't still be there. (I've got a mop with an axe blade on it - the bucket is for the blood. Only kidding - I do prefer to save things when there's a cat in hell's chance. No miaowing here.) Not vandalism, and it has context. Not a hoax, either. You could try an AfD and hope for snow... Peridon (talk) 18:24, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Haha, fair does. Best to follow the right procedure. Del_♉sion23 (talk) 18:26, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

They removed the PROD, I'll take it to AfD. Del_♉sion23 (talk) 20:22, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Speedies

Yes, there are gaps. CSD is intended as a shortcut to get rid of the most obviously non-encyclopaedic stuff. People put tags on, and an admin decides. (That's the usual way - occasionally an admin finds an attack page and it goes without tagging.) So, there's a 'committee of two' involved. The admin's role is to represent the people that would come in at AfD and decide from experience what they would decide. Prod is an attempt to get the article improved. If it can't be, or isn't, an admin decides whether to delete or not. Occasionally, it's not. AfD is (in theory) a consensus of Wikipedians, but not a headcount. This upsets the SPAs who don't read the small print.And once again, an admin who isn't involved decides. CSD is for categories where things should be fairly straightforward. Is it credible that this 13 year old owns a multinational group of companies, whose first hit at Google is a Facebook page? (And there are all of 8 other ghits...) Does the use of 'offers' ten times in a short article mean spam? (Doesn't everybody put a telephone number in?) And so on. The gaps are usually where there is considered to be more room for doubt. 'Test page' can cover a lot of things - but not something carefully designed and referenced. Hope this answers your query. Peridon (talk) 11:52, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Cheers for the info :) Del_♉sion23 (talk) 12:10, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Your signature

Please could you not have the link to your talk page in red, as this usually signifies a non-existent page and so is potentially confusing. (For example, someone might think you have no talk page and so come around to welcome you.) I think blue would be a better colour, but failing that, any colour except red would be better. Cheers — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:06, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Non-league task force

Good work! That looks a lot better, a lot more professional. Now we can see a bit more of where we are in terms of article quality, among other things. Hope you're doing well, FCUoM still well in the hunt, I see. Truro City are running out of cash, but at least we're not down the bottom (yet). I'm working on season articles for the Western League at the moment, when I get time - then I'll be doing the Isthmian League and the few Southern League seasons that aren't done yet. Long job! Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:15, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Shame about the FA Cup - it's always nice to get to the First Round Proper and face up to a league team, but maybe next time. Truro met a similar fate, being thumped 7-2 by Gloucester City, which was pretty disappointing. I laughed out loud at your Truronian ancestor! Cornish people did get around during the 1800s, looking for work - I have relatives all over the world descended from wandering Truronians. Any time you want to come back to your ancestral motherland and cheer on the Tigers, you'd be very welcome ;) If sometime you want to have a go at some season articles, go right ahead with whatever you fancy. I've got my teeth into the Western League, but ultimately I'd like to do as many at that level as I can. I've also found various books of league tables, including some obscure stuff that doesn't appear to be on the web, so every little helps! Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:52, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

I'd like to take in a FCUoM game if I find myself up that way, especially if you get yourselves a new stadium! I had no idea playing at Bury was costing you that much - that must mount up pretty heavily by the end of the season. Think about how else you could spend that! The Stadium for Cornwall is waiting to see who's going to pay for it, haha... the council are pretty hesitant and property developers are waiting to see how many houses they can build as part of the project. There's supposed to be a hotel and conference centre as well, and the Cornish Pirates rugby team would also play there. It must be a goer, but £24 million is a lot of money in Cornwall. I see the Keepmoat Stadium, where Doncaster play, is losing money hand over fist - so there must be lessons to be learned there. Bretonbanquet (talk) 20:02, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!!!

Thank you, Delusion, for helping the National teams task force with tagging. Any help is needed in the beginning of a task force. It isn't too late to join, though... Bar Code Symmetry (Talk) 17:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Was just about to put the WP:India templates on the new articles' talk pages, when I realized you'd already completed most. Thanks for sparing me the drudgery. PhnomPencil (talk) 19:43, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Talk page banners

Hi, there is generally no need to add a {{talkheader}} to every talk page, this is particularly the case when you have only just created the talk page, as with Talk:Newton Heath and Moston Metrolink station, or where the talk page otherwise consists solely of WikiProject banners. Per its documentation, {{talkheader}} is "intended to be used on particularly active talk pages that attract commentary from inexperienced editors, and/or high levels of debate from everyone", and I don't see any instances where any of these apply. Thanks. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:07, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Fair does. Should have paid more attention to the template documentation. Thanks for pointing it out to me :) Del_♉sion23 (talk) 21:41, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.
