Ms. Kelly

The album was originally titled Kelly Rowland: My Story and was recently renamed to Ms. Kelly. I posted an audio source for this information on the article a few days ago ... - Noboyo - November 18, 2006

Timing

Its all about timing. You are strong with the Force, young padawan. KillerChihuahua 18:19, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

I don't know how I missed that RfA until so late. I thought I had checked there yesterday. Ah, well, I do get somehting right every once once in a while. -- Donald Albury 18:26, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
I was indignant enough over your nosing me out to offer WP:200 support, and now I learn that such nosing was essentially inadvertent? That's, I suppose, what I get for not quoting the Bible on my userpage. :) Good on ya in any event, Joe 03:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I had just discovered that Brad was up, so it was indeed pure luck. :-) -- Donald Albury 04:00, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Longleaf pine scanned image

I added the info you requested about where the specimen pine was found. Does it need more info? Fortunately I got the specimen when I did as the tree it is now dying and will have to be cut down :-( Noles1984 14:21, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks good! Thank you for fixing that. -- Donald Albury 14:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Gifford Arboretum

As much as I like plant lists, I don't see how this really helps. I'd say either stub it down and remove the list, or convert the list to an actual list (since as a paragraph its unreadable). And, of course, it would need a reference.

So what sounds better to you - remove the species, or make them look like a list? Guettarda 15:06, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Newyorkbrad's RfA

Thank you for your support on my RfA, which closed favorably this morning, as well as for your kind comments accompanying your !vote. I appreciate the confidence the community has placed in me and am looking forward to my new responsibilities. Please let me know if ever you have any comments or suggestions, especially as I am learning how to use the tools. Best regards, Newyorkbrad 20:50, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Leon H. Sullivan Summit

I noticed that you recently deleted the article Leon H. Sullivan Summit. I recently expanded the Leon Sullivan article and was wondering if you could undelete the Leon H. Sullivan Summit article as I would like to link to this, as well as expand it. Thanks, --Dovcamp 01:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I deleted Leon H. Sullivan Summit because it consisted solely of material copied from another source in violation of copyright. You are welcome to start a new article, but please remember that all material added to Misplaced Pages needs to supported by reliable published sources, but must not violate any copyright. -- Donald Albury 02:02, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

User talk:Jgarbis

Hey, there -- wondering if you had any comment on this user's current unblock request? (Which is a nice way of saying "Gosh, I dunno what to do." :p) You blocked them, originally, so your input as to the believability of their latest message would be especially appreciated, I think. Thanks. Luna Santin 03:18, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

As it happens, I declined the request just a few minutes ago. They still just don't seem to get it. -- Donald Albury 03:20, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
Hmm! This indicates that I did respond, but I don't see it when I look at the user talk page. Puzzlement! -- Donald Albury 03:24, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
Heh -- I've made the same mistake, a few times, not switching {{unblock}} to {{unblock reviewed}}. (Which is another reminder that I should consider merging the two templates). Fixed that for now. :) Luna Santin 03:41, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
Ah! My first response to an unblock request. Now I know. -- Donald Albury 03:44, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

discussing 'Fexism'

Hello Dalbury, i am uncertain about your reccommendation for delete on this article, its just that i am at a college in Newcastle and our socology teacher told us about this theory, it seems that it has attracted some interest in the sociology under-world! She said that her friend in sunderland told her about it, she disagrees with it, but her friend who is male thought it was ok. i just thought i should let you know, because it may attract some interest..

Please confine comments about the article to the article's talk page, and comments about the AfD to the AfD's talk page. -- Donald Albury 22:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages Talk:Possibly unfree images

Why did you de-archive the entire page, remove my question and not contact me? Your action was OTT as the 'active' discussion had not been posted to for 7 days... Please don't do that again as it is disruptive as archiving is a necessary aspect of talk page management (someone on a 56k modem would take ages downloading that talk page!)-Localzuk 17:59, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

You're right. I apologize. I was not at my best when I did that. -- Donald Albury 18:53, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Notable Dancer

It is not up to you to determine whether one is considered 'notable' or not. What makes a professional NBA dancer any less 'notable' than a NBA player... money?? or your blessings?? Both are 'notable' achievements, so please do not change. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Prentiss77 (talkcontribs) 08:02, 28 January 2007 (UTC).

Determination of notability of people for Misplaced Pages purposes is guided by Misplaced Pages:Notability (people). Note that notability can only be established by multiple, independent, published reliable sources. If you can establish the notability of a person using multiple, published, reliable sources, then create a Misplaced Pages article for that person. Once an article exists in Misplaced Pages (and doesn't get deleted for not meeting the criteria for an article), you can cite that person as 'notable' in other articles. -- Donald Albury 18:53, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Mastek

If you have the time, could you delete Talk:Mastek since you speedy deleted the article? :) Regards, -- lucasbfr 16:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
