Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Hoponpop69! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to these articles, it would greatly help us with the current 941 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Dan Panic - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Rick Parashar - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Username spoofed

Hi, Hoponpop69. Prolific sockpuppeteer User:AFI-PUNK created a sock named User:Poponhop69, who vandalized your userpage. Can you recall having a run-in with this user (or one of his army of socks) in the past that would lead him to want to spoof your username? If so, and the account is still active, I'd like to see it also gets blocked -- any help appreciated. Cheers! --Rrburke^ekrubrR 23:03, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

I filed the first sock puppetry case against him [1], and spent a lot of tiem trying to get him banned. I guess he still holds a grudge.Hoponpop69 (talk) 23:12, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Cold War (band)

Hi. You recently nominated this article for speedy deletion per WP:CSD#A7. Digging deep into the reversion history, I discovered that the article was hijacked back in December 2009 with this edit. Whether the original band is more notable is a matter of taste, but I have reverted to the last "good" version and we can take it from there. Favonian (talk) 19:47, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy declined on Mastercastle

Not much of a claim there, but signing a contract with a record label and releasing an album are enough to make it past CSD-A7. Taking it to PROD or AFD might be appropriate, because I agree that they might not be notable enough for inclusion.—Kww(talk) 22:44, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Awaken (band)

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Awaken (band). We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Awaken (band). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:06, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Shitgaze

An article that you have been involved in editing, Shitgaze, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shitgaze. Thank you.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Silverwood (talk) 15:35, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Usage of the "minor edit" tag

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Walt Whitman, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. AtticusX (talk) 11:56, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Geoff Byrd

There's a claim of significance there, supported by a source. Also, a search of Google News shows there is plenty of coverage available. Please be cautious about speedying articles that have existed for years. Thanks. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 02:29, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
