Thanks
I make it a habit to thank people who help out on the pages I work on. So, thanks for your help on the Alucard (Castlevania) page. I'm thinking of reporting that IP address, since it keeps adding in something about "the former father of Trevor Belmont" in inappropriate places when that topic is covered in most articles dealing with those characters anyway. Anyway, just so you know, you're appreciated.

Re: Gary Sweetleaf miller. 24.52.243.52 (talk) 20:23, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
Sorry for the top of the page thing. I'm on an iPad right now and it doesn't handle the txt window that great. The first ref I list is an Imdb page for Gary that links back to the crash addicts imdb page. Hotrodthemovie has an imdb page as well I just can't copy paste it with the iPad. The hotrodthemovie.com link is the filmmakers website. Low budget but it is the official site where you can buy the movie. I could add distributed links for both projects. Would that be enough?

Speedy deletion
Hello, Rorshacma. when you tag a page for speedy deletion, as, for example, BOTTS, you should notify the article's creator, otherwise they have no opportunity to contest the tag or to learn what they are doing wrong. Jimmy Pitt talk 18:29, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I'm very sorry, I accidentally undid an "attack" tag on an article, just now. (Best if I don't bother naming it). My revert was just an error, caused by replication lag. I've reinstated the speedy template, and I'm sure it'll be gone very soon. Cheers, Chzz ► 22:08, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

re: Just-in-time lad
I have declined your speedy-deletion nomination of Just-in-time lad. I believe the page to be unsourced and probably prohibited original research about an alleged archetype but the page did not meet the very high standards of blatancy necessary for the CSD criterion. I recommend that you nominate the page to AfD to get more eyes on the question. Rossami (talk) 17:30, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Fair enough. I clearly do not normally recognise as notable events which are heralded, not actual; it seemed to me that the event in question - the start of WWI - allowed some flexibility in interpretation of guideline, given that the group, and the procedure they intend to employ, both exist. But I am not dogmatic about it; by all means replace the template. It is likely another admin will action it. I will take no further part in the article's history. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:52, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Declined speedy deletion
I declined your speedy deletion request of Haftbefehl (rapper). At the top of the page, you can see that there is a template recommending translation from the corresponding page on German Wikipedia. Looking at that page, even if you can't read German, you can see what appears to be a claim that the album charted; following some Google Translate work, we can find that one of Haftbefehl's albums reached 59 in the main German record chart; that's enough to prove not only "significance or importance", but often enough to prove notability, per WP:MUSIC. However, you could argue that one charting album isn't enough; if you want, you can take the article to WP:AfD. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:08, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
I really don't know how much you anti-Semitic there in the English Wikipedia. Maybe if I wrote "World Center of Christ" then you would not erase everything. This building is being constructed by the Israeli government nor any commercial entity. I don't see no reason to delete this value, just as there as a projects that were never built are written articles about them. If you've read it all then you will see that this building should start to be built next month sponsored by the Israeli government. פארוק (talk) 16:36, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. →Στc. 22:20, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Declined speedy deletion reauest
Hi Rorshacma, I've declined your speedy tag of Allen Atamer since I believe the list of publications is a credible assertion of notability. An article only has to make an assertion of notability for it not to be valid under CSD:A7. Whether the subject is actually notable is another matter.

Welcoming new users
Hi. Thanks for patrolling new pages, but when you go to the article author's talk page to add the speedy notice, if they have not already had a Welcome notice, e.g. if they are a new user, it is a good idea to add one, preferably before the speedy notice. {{welcome}} is a good general one, or {{firstarticle}} if their first article is being speedied, or {{welcome-spam}} if it was advertising. (All those should be subst-ed; "firstarticle" is an oddity - the signature is already built in, so for once you shouldn't add ~~~~.) It lessens the WP:BITEyness of the speedy notice (we get a lot of flak for being unfriendly to new users), and it gives useful links such as WP:YFA which may help the newbie do better next time.

Speedy deletions and Use of Edit Summary
Hi! Thanks for your efforts in seeking out and nominating articles for speedy deletion. Just a quick reminder - it is a requirement that when you tag an article for speedy deletion, you use the edit summary to say that you are nominating for speedy deletion. I've had a check back over your more recent speedy deletion nominations, and none of them have used the edit summary. It isn't just a courtesy for the page editors, but also saves the reviewing admin the hassle of trying to work out at what point in the page history the article was nominated.
For full details, please read WP:CSD#Criteria. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I m here to help. Thanks! Yasht101:) 16:10, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you seem to be really good at dealing with articles that should probably be deleted? I was looking at Fahrenheit 212, which is new. And to me it looks like a blatant advertising piece. It sounds like it was written by this company's PR person. Haha. Anyway, it has six citations, but only one of them is legitimate. And three of them are to their own website. Anyway, I was hoping you could look at it and give your expert opinion. If you think I'm right, can you do whatever the process is for getting it deleted?

Should Joseph Baldwin Academy be nominated for AfD?
Hi Rorshacma. Can you look at Joseph Baldwin Academy and see if you think it should be nominated for AfD? The article is about a summer program for kids that takes place at Truman State University. The whole article simply looks like an advertisement or brochure for the program and all the sourcing is to the program's own website pages. The article even has the program's Summer 2012 schedule, which clearly seems to be inappropriate content and only there for promotional purposes. Also, if you look at the talk page, the article appears to have been written by the program's students as part of a project. The talk page also has a comment from a kid who seems to think that article content was just copy and pasted from the program's own website. If you think this article should be nominated, can you start the AfD process? I don't know how to do it. Thanks! --76.189.114.163 (talk) 03:27, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Merging during an active AfD
Hi. I noticed that you merged some text from Ant lion (Dungeons & Dragons) to List of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition monsters during WP:Articles for deletion/Ant lion (Dungeons & Dragons). Merging or copying during an active AfD is discouraged by the last bullet of WP:Guide to deletion#You may edit the article during the discussion. (If you are interested in the history, it was added after WT:Articles for deletion/Archive 58#Merging during live AfD in 2009.) A copy from the AfD'd article activates WP:Merge and delete and WP:Copying within Wikipedia#Reusing deleted material, making outright deletion very difficult. You invalidated your own delete recommendation by copying that content.
It's fine to compromise with a merge/redirect, but it would be better if you annotated your comments at the AfD and waited to do the merging. Flatscan (talk) 04:30, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Cliffhanger endings to sequels are often compared to the ending of Empire Strikes Back as they lead into the next one (usually the concluding chapter). That's where the term came from. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Futuremoviewriter (talk • contribs) 05:30, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

WarGames WOPR merge
Hi there. I recently voted on your merger proposal. As a new user, I am wondering how the process works for going ahead with this merger. Has enough "voting" time elapsed? Is it your responsibility to conduct the merger, or can any user do it? Thanks for creating that discussion! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charger2 (talk • contribs) 15:00, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
