Wild Beasts Article

[edit]

Your article Wild beasts was deleted after consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wild beasts. Do not recreate the article. If you want a review of the deletion decision, go to Wikipedia:Deletion review. NawlinWiki 05:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you are having a bit of trouble adding a request for deletion review on Wild beasts. Is there anything I can do to help you? Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 16:11, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Done. See Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2006 November 7#Wild beasts. Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 16:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's just the normal thing to do. You wanted a deletion review, so you're entitled to have the deletion reviewed. As I said in my reply to your nomination, the band Wild beasts doesn't yet pass the notability guidelines set by WP:MUSIC. Perhaps I also need to explain what I meant with "without prejudice", because that's a bit of jargon. It means that I don't oppose an article about Wild beasts once they are notable enough, or an article that asserts their notability right now. It means that I agree with the deletion of this particular version of the article. I believe that at this point in their career, Wild beasts haven't achieved enough for a wikipedia entry. While the deletion review is underway, you might also want to have a look at our list of requested articles. A lot of bands, singers, music genres, record labels etc. are still without an article. Perhaps you know enough about one or more of them, so that you can help fill in the gaps of wikipedia. Yours, Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 13:29, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Tag for vandalism

[edit]

I use a collection of a few scripts which make vandal reverting/warning nearly automatic, so that I can do it more quickly. Some of what I use (primarily rollback) are reserved for administrators only, but the Popups script is a popular one with many users. (ESkog)(Talk) 19:04, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Vandilism Comments

[edit]

Please do not believe that all changes are sandbox games or vandalism. Your presence in the Wikipedian world is rather recent. 82.250.60.102

Wikipedia is about facts and should not be used to canvas personal opinion like you did on the page, this WILL be classed as vanidilism, I have also responded to your talk page Ryanpostlethwaite 17:28, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This IS NOT and WAS NOT vandalism. 82.250.60.102

"If this is not vandilism you are wrtining in a completely biased unencyclopedic style, if you want to edit it, I have no problem with that, just change your style to be unbiased and make encylopedic comments Ryanpostlethwaite 17:43, 23 November 2006 (UTC)".

You cannot even spell words correctly. How can you tell what is encyclopedic and what is not? Wikipedia is not the right place for you. 82.250.60.102

I am glad to see you found back reasonable ways of acting. 82.250.60.102

Help with Editor Review

[edit]

I don't know if your question has been answered yet, but since it doesn't seem to need administrator intervention, if it hasn't been resolved, I suggest posting to Wikipedia:Help Desk instead, since that type of help is more in their realm. Good luck! Anchoress 01:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Esperanza!

[edit]

Welcome, Ryanpostlethwaite, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact our administrator general Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

Editor review

[edit]

Thanks for having requested an editor review. A month has passed since it has been posted there, and it has been archived. You can find it at Wikipedia:Editor review/ryanpostlethwaite, where you may read last minute additions. We would really appreciate your help in reviewing a random editor. If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 23:27, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please tell me why the sprotected template is not necessary on the above page and only the sprotected 2 template? Suely its better to let new or unregistered users know that they can't edit RyanPostlethwaiteSee the mess I've created or lets have banter 01:24, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From Template:Sprotected2:

This template [{{sprotected2}}] should be used for pages that are semi-protected for longer periods (for brief semi-protection please use {{sprotected}}) or where the other semi-protection template may be untidy.

Saddam Hussein has been, and most likely will continue to be, semi-protected for a long period of time. Perhaps un-protection may occur when the article becomes linked from the Main Page. -- tariqabjotu 01:29, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Anna keo.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Anna keo.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 12:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

AutoWikiBrowser

[edit]

Thank you for your recent application to use AutoWikiBrowser. Regrettably, I have declined your request as you do not have 500 mainspace edits. You are welcome to apply again at a later time. Feel free to contact me with any questions, alphachimp 15:29, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers for blocking the above user. He persistantly removed the speedy deletion tag on SantoCarlo and then the vandilism to my userpage was the last straw. It was much appreciated RyanPostlethwaiteSee the mess I've created or lets have banter 22:22, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No probs. ViridaeTalk 23:06, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

your sig

[edit]

Your signature is waaaaay too long. I had to wade though 6+ lines of code in the window before I realized it was a signature. Please tone it down. S h a r k f a c e 2 1 7 07:35, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
