	Since Grafikm brought SoftPale to the noticeboard, I started a discussion of your indef block, ]. As I said on the arb talk page, the case is not a reason to start a Mongo pile-on, and the block was unrelated to ED, so I thought it should be reviewed at ANI. I was going to wait for SoftPale to let me know his intentions, but since Grafikm started the ball rolling, I posted the unblock request there. I see your logic, but it's probably better to review at ANI than in the Arb case. Hope this is not too much of a problem. ] 21:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

	Since you removed the citation tags from this and several other passages, could you please point out to me where the references are for the following ''being factual assertions rather than opinions''?
	#effects of the airplane impacts and subsequent fires '''caused''' the buildings to collapse
	#Heat ...weakened the structures, '''causing''' the floors to sag and the perimeter columns to bow inwards.
	#the enormous weight...overwhelmed the load bearing capacity
	#Total collapse was then inevitable.
	thanks...
	(My point is this, that all of the sources I see referenced regarding these details cite these as opinions rather than facts. If there is no source stating these are facts, I would like to introduce text to the effect that these are opinions, or conclusions or whatever would be the appropriate way of describing them.)
	Also, could you explain to me why it is 'unneeded' to include that the woman standing in the hole is alive? And why it is unnecessary to point out that this is not a mere gash, but the hole in the building through which the aircraft passed? Plainly ''we'' can see she is alive, but remember that captions and alt text are expected to make sense to the blind as well as those who can see.

	There is no reason you can't contribute more constructively than by just adding fact tags all over the place and you've been around long enough to know this.

	Hi Mongo. I'm sure you are aware of the "edit war" that has been going on at the S.J. article. Well, before you unprotected, Tom B. asked for the consensus of editors re: changes he wanted to make. No matter how the votes are counted, the majority of editors (even some on "his" side of the issue), opined that the status quo was preferable to the edits he was suggesting. He then went on and spent the entire day attempting to edit the article to fit his POV. I have, after comparing the edits made, reverted the article back to the incarnation which was favored by the majority of editors. I am concerned, with 9/11 approaching, that this article is going to continue to be a "war-ground". I see that Peephole has requested protection and, since you are an admin, I was wondering if you think the article should be re-protected? It seems this may be preferable to the article continually going through huge shifts. Thanks for your time, ] 02:23, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

	Hi, I noticed that you have been deleting images tagged with {{tl\|NowCommons}}. However, can I just ask that you ''check'' usage on en.wiki before you delete the image. For example ] was still used in 2 articles, before deletion; CSD I9 states it may only be speedied if "If the image is available on Commons under a different name than locally, ''it must not be used'' on any local page whatsoever." If you are deleting dupes like that can you please first orphan the en.wp image? At the very least, ensure that in the deletion reason you give the filename of the commons version, or else other editors will have a painful time tracking it down.

	:::I have yet to see anyone demonstrate, by following our policies and guideleines, that ED was notable enough to remain on Misplaced Pages as an article.

Speedy deletion nomination of Battlement Mountain (disambiguation)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Battlement Mountain (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

disambiguates zero extant Misplaced Pages pages, regardless of its title; or
is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

Glad I have other things to worry about than this website as some folks are hell bent on making it a completely unfun place to be. Nice job dlthewave...you succeeded in getting the articles redirected yet I see the page they redirect to have no further information...only empty headers. The purpose of a stub is so myself or anyone can come along and work to expand it...bandwidth is cheap so deletion is just plain stupid. This is why we have stub tags.--MONGO (talk) 11:16, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
