Speedy deletion of Markus Jiskra

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Skomorokh 09:05, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Feat Factory

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Feat Factory, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

No sources to support the notability of 'Fear Factory' if the British team do train their it might be notable but sources are needed.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Sorry typo --Nate1481 10:53, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Simply deleting the tag doesn't make it go away or hide. That warning is strictly for readers to know the article is potentially nothing but vandalism; you don't think the nomination really lies elsewhere? Daniel Christensen (talk) 14:18, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Userpage

{{helpme}} I'm not great at formatting things here. Can someone please move my taekwondo userbox so it sits to the right of File:Taekwondo.svg. Thanks!!! C.U.T.K.D 15:09, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I'll take a look. --  Chzz  ►  15:11, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Hmm, I don't think it can be done. If the image is taken out of the infobox, it can't be put on the right - you can't have text-pic-infobox. If you try, the pic doesn't appear until the end of the infobox, underneath it.

Same problem if I try to put it on the left within the text, because it won't appear until after the infobox.

Can you clarify what you're trying to do? Is it because you think the infobox is too long, with the picture and the logo?

--  Chzz  ►  15:18, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Adding:

I've played around with the infobox template formatting, and the only way to get the 2 images side-by-side is by messging about with the code that is generated by the infobox template. That means not using the template directly, therefore if the template got updated this particular page would have to be changed manually. I don't think that's a good idea.

One proposed solution would be to use image editing to make a single image file that contains both the logo and the picture. That might be the best answer.

If I can help further, please leave me comments on my own talk page.

Thanks, --  Chzz  ►  15:50, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome Template

{{helpme}}|Can someone please tell me which template Dr Debug used at the top of my talk page? Thanks!

Do you mean this edit? Looks like he used the standard welcome template, using {{subst:welcome}} --  Chzz  ►  11:45, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah I think he customised it though, with a broken link which I was going to fix. So never mind. C.U.T.K.D 10:04, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

The pint

Thanks a lot ... I'm not a serious drinker, but that looks really good right now. Shame I'm not in a place where I could drink it. Perhaps you could ship it across the Atlantic somehow?

Saw your heaping praise at AN. I appreciate it, but I'm just doing my job ... I start off every wikiday with a tour through AIV, UAA, CAT:RFU and then try to verify at least five DYK hooks. So it just came naturally. Daniel Case (talk) 15:06, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Thanks...

No problem. I see you were crafting your own warning messages. I find it easier to use the ones suggested at WP:WARN. Just a suggestion. Anyway, thanks for the report, Spencer 15:08, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Obama

I have an outline of a lengthy and legitimate article at User:THF/Obama with not a single "nutball conspiracy theory" in it. I'll draft it off-wiki this weekend. I encourage editors to participate in this project by sending me sources (or perhaps fully drafted paragraphs) rather than battling at DRV or on the Talk:Obama page about intermediate stages. If we present a fully-sourced, well-written neutral article, there shouldn't be a problem -- and if there is, it will be pretty damning of Misplaced Pages. THF (talk) 15:48, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Please reduce your signature size, as per WP:SIG. Big tags, or font size 3, and anything above, are not allowed.— Dædαlus 07:06, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Hell no, and you don't reduce it, I'm taking you to the Administrators Noticeboard/incidents for disruptiion.— Dædαlus 22:05, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

My Name

My account isn't for a single purpose. Check my edits, but I am Sikh and I lecture at University in History, so I thought it maybe a good name. Thanks --Sikh-history (talk) 16:19, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Counter Vandalism

{{helpme}} I am trying to use user:Lupin's Anti Vandal tools, the code for which I have inserted at user:CUTKD/monobook.js. I would like some assistance using the "Recent IP edits" function, as at the moment I cannot use the roll-back feature in a new tab/window - each time I attempt to revert vandalism I have to click "back" to return to the page, which as I'm sure you are all aware is extremely inefficient and defeats the object of the tools. I'm also unsure of how to use the warnings feature, and how to select different grades of warning template. Thanks, C.U.T.K.D 07:59, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

You can open the rollback feature in a new tab. I think the warning level is automatically chosen. fahadsadah (talk,contribs) 08:11, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Ok so the rollback function seems to be working quite nicely (although half the time it doesn't automatically click save :S). I still can't get the warnings to work. The editing page comes up, with a "Your recent edits..." summary in place, but no warning template from me issued and no automatic save :S Any ideas what's going wrong? C.U.T.K.D 08:31, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Try using Twinkle for warnings; Lupin's tool hasn't been maintained for a long time and most likely has a lot of latent bugs. --Closedmouth (talk) 09:36, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Please help... {{resolved}}

{{helpme}} Anyone able to fix for me? It's not displaying correctly... C.U.T.K.D 09:07, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Resolved ;) --Closedmouth (talk) 09:10, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of DJ Talent

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article DJ Talent, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Notable for one event it seems and not very notable at that. No independent third party refs.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Tin whistle man

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. A page you recently created, Tin whistle man, may not conform to some of Misplaced Pages's guidelines for new pages, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. All the links in the article were fake or nonworking. NawlinWiki (talk) 12:57, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Archive

{{helpme}} Can someone please help me with my talk page auto-archive? It's supposed to be set-up so that anything older than a month is archived, max archive size 100K, and leaving no fewer than 10 threads in active talk. Several threads should already have been archived. If you can fix it, perhaps you could change it to every 3 months for me? Talk isn't quite as active as I thought it might be. Thanks, C.U.T.K.D 08:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I've had a shot at fixing this; the relative link might have confused the bot. Give it 24 hours to see if it works. You should note that the bot will ignore threads with less than two timestamps, so the welcome message and the various bot warnings wil still need to be manually archived. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 11:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Right, it's working now. I've added a couple of section headers to help the bot out, which should hopefully allow it to process the rest of your old messages. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 13:35, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Awesome! C.U.T.K.D 12:35, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

3RR

You might have noticed that you have come close to violating the three revert rule in the talk page of User:219.74.32.135. Be careful. Pmlinediter   08:46, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

My understanding of the three revert rule is that it does not apply in the case of persistent vandalism, which is exactly what was going on- a blocked user was abusing their talk page. C.U.T.K.D 08:48, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Deion/Deioneus

Hi

Re these unexplained reverts:

Deion is a dab page; Deioneus says "In Greek mythology, Deioneus (Greek: Δηιονεύς) or Deion (Greek: Δηίων) is a name attributed to the following individuals:"; I presumed the article name must be the more "usual" of the two? 58.8.15.66 (talk) 10:24, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Deion is an acceptable alternative for Deioneus, thus you could argue there was no need for you to change it in the first place. That said, you are probably right, so if you wish to change them back again, I won't revert this time. C.U.T.K.D 10:29, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Deion is a dab page. I've undone your reverts. Thanks. 58.8.15.66 (talk) 10:35, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Expect VERY nasty things in the future

I'm going to find out PRECISELY where you live and do VERY NASTY THINGS to you

DON'T EVER REVERT ME AGAIN
