Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 01:55, 4 May 2008

Thank you

Just a little message to say thanks for changing my username PhilB ~ /_C 10:53, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi Angela. I see you've been active recently changing and not changing appropriate username at the changing username page. Could you archive, this thread, the archiving bot seems to have missed it out. (But I'm not sure whether that's because there's no, yes or no comment on the thread or just a bot malfunction). Thanks. Best, Rudget _zŋ 19:21, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Facebook about to be deleted

Hi, as one of the people with a picture on Misplaced Pages:Facebook, figured you might be interested in knowing that it is up for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Images of Wikipedians (2nd nomination). - Ta bu shi da yu 02:44, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Consensus vs. voting on local Misplaced Pages

Hello Angela,

We're trying to settle a bit of a dispute on some basic Misplaced Pages principles on the Romanian Misplaced Pages, and we're looking for some representative outside input. Please direct me to the right person I should talk to. The issue is exposed on Meta.

Thank you,

Classification of admins

Hi Angela. Please consider adding your admin username to the growing list at Classification of admins. Best! -- Jreferee t/c 23:01, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

• Hi Angela and Jreferee. Why would a User page be the spot to classify oneself? Thanks in advance for any information and apologies for the question from another user. -Susanlesch (talk) 07:43, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

It's not. It was just spam sent to all admins. Angela. 13:21, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

ArbCom voting

Hi Angela, thanks for voting on my candidacy. I was wondering, is this in the wrong section? Thanks. --Deskana (talk) 10:59, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

I see you fixed it, never mind. Thanks again. --Deskana (talk) 11:00, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

AFD

I'm not sure if you're already aware, but your page on the mainspace is up for deletion. Regards, — Rudget _{contributions} 19:35, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Your lack of participation in the deletion Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Angela Beesley (7th nom) is giving the appearance of your tacit approval of the deletion. The person proposing the deletion is claiming that he is acting at your behest by way of private communications. It would be best if you responded with a posting, to clear it up. Cheers. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 21:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Right... but my participation gets me accused of COI and then people start voting "keep" because they object to the fact I'm voting on it. Since I can't win either way, I'd rather just stay out of it. Angela. 00:00, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes, true, I am realizing this myself, that no matter what you say or do you are trapped. I was wondering if the whole thing was devised as a trap to maximize embarrassment to all parties involved. The irony is that you and Daniel Brandt are now linked as being on the same side of the issue, and your article is heading to the top of the list in the number of deletion attempts, with his at the top. The person who is spearheading the Brandt, and your deletion, can keep referring to your ex parte communication as your approval, and or instigation of the deletion process. A good number of the delete votes are because you are requesting the deletion, whether it is correct or not. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 00:13, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

It was deleted by Mercury, see AFD. But has since been recreated as a redirect to Wikia, upon discussion at the admin noticeboard. — Rudget _speak.work 19:08, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Do you, in fact, want it deleted? Someone at the AFD said you'd made a statement, but I can't find it, and suggests you were never in contact with Durova. (which makes the existing AFD a bad-faith nomination regardless). Do you want the article deleted or not? —Random832 21:50, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Random, look. Regards, Mercury 23:30, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to pry

Hi Ms Beesley, I remember seeing on your article page that you were romanically involved with Jimbo Wales. I swear to remembering that being on the page for quite some time, obviously not that it makes it true, ect. Was this just vandalism to your article? If so, I will make that clear and strike my comments from your AFD. Thanks,--Tom 22:43, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Of course it's not true. I don't remember there being any such thing in my article, and if there was it ought to have been very obvious it was blatant vandalism. Angela. 03:49, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

I will strike/remove my comment then and apologize. I should have removed it looking back, but I wasn't that "aggressive" against unsourced material as I am now. Cheers, --Tom 14:47, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Creeps

Hello, Angela. I don't know if you remember me but I wonder if you ever tried to close a MySpace account. I asked for complete deletion on the day I signed up because some guy had to be blocked within less than a couple minutes, and he would not accept messages "try back tomorrow". I used the MySpace FAQ, followed their directions, and received an ack email explaining why my account "may have been closed." But it is still there. You wouldn't happen to have their phone number in Los Angeles would you? Sorry to bother you. Photo by Sister72, somewhere near Asbury Park, New Jersey where I guess some guy named Bruce Springsteen used to sing on the beach. Best wishes for the holidays and the new year. -Susanlesch (talk) 07:40, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

No, I've never contacted myspace. I expect you have to email them, not phone them. Angela. 11:45, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

OK, thanks. -Susanlesch (talk) 13:45, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

		The Photographer's Barnstar
		To Angela, for your photo of Saint Anthony Falls in October 2005. Hope you can accept this token of recognition. Thank you! Susanlesch (talk) 14:48, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Franz Josef Strauß

Might I ask you to take a look at the new discussion going on at Franz Josef Strauß? Yes, it is an ancient topic (the use of ß on en-wiki), but this is one of the most prominent articles in which this issue is of significance. Given your experience, your input would be very much appreciated. Unschool (talk) 01:39, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

External links to wikis

• Hi. =) The conversation on the Heroes discussion page has continued somewhat, however I'm not sure if the points at hand are being understood by those disagreeing with the concept of external linking. If you have any additional helpful comments that may assist please feel free. =) --Centish (talk) 05:09, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

fring - Thank you

Hi Angela.

Thank you for rescuing the fring article. I am not sure what the next step would be to get the article back in wikipdia but i am sure you would be able to guide me, I would not like to do something that will get the article deleted so i hope you could help me to get this article restored. I was just reading Davids article, he wrote a great article o Israel. Thank you once again for getting this article one step closer to being restored.

regards

Removing the taint of copyright violation

Hi Angela,

In Talk:Information_overload#Revert_of_possible_copyright_violation, you made a comment on dealing with an article that included copyright violations.

A couple of months ago, I spotted a similar problem with the article on CAIR, except that it involved cut and paste jobs from several sources with both pro and anti-CAIR viewpoints. (See Talk:Council_on_American-Islamic_Relations#Major_reversion_due_to_copyright_problems for evidence).

I tried to discuss the issue, and raise it in copyright problems, but I failed to get a definitive answer on whether reversion is needed or not. I couldn't find any firm guidelines on how to deal with this kind of situation (ie whether reversion is needed or whether editing out of the offending text is sufficient).

Are you aware of any such guidelines?

Thanks, Andjam (talk) 03:31, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Complaint

Angela as usual sorry to bother you. Mr. Wales got a barnstar--twice now--from me. But I find his lack of response to be outrageous. If you happen to know a way to wake him up, please ask him to reply on his talk page. -Susanlesch (talk) 05:06, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

I expect he didn't realise you wanted a response. He's get an awful lot of messages on his talk page, so it makes sense for him only to reply where a response is needed rather than just where an acknowledging something you adding there. Angela. 10:06, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Scimitar logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Scimitar logo.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Save_Us_229 21:46, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

I think it's better to delete it and add a real logo (if one can be found) rather than one I clipped out from a photo. I've deleted it since the article already has 3 free images and has no need for a fair use one, especially such a poor quality one. Angela. 10:15, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Your doppelgangers

Some time back, User:Conrad Devonshire created User:AngeIa Beesley (note: that's A-n-g-e-Capital Eye-a...) and some other similar ones as doppelgangers to your account to prevent impersonation. Later, that user was blocked and eventually his user page was deleted. So there are now some orphan doppelgangers. Perhaps you would like to adopt them yourself; otherwise, would MFD be appropriate? Matchups (talk) 04:54, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it matters who owns them. I don't really care either way about them existing and MfD seems a bit pointless. Couldn't they just be speedied? Angela. 10:16, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

I'll take you up on your offer to help!

You left a note on my talk page some time ago offering help to me as a new user. Hope you don't mind...I really have tried to find the answer online... My question is what is the accepted practice for removing wikipedia tags (like advert and notability) placed by others, from an article? Should I wait for the person that put them there to remove them, or can I or anyone else remove them if the issues are addressed? Thanks. John Howell (talk) 19:42, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Deletion of User:Isarig's page

Hi there. I went to this page to check out some things for an Arbcomm case that is ongoing on Israeli-Palestinian related articles. I'm wondering why it was deleted and if it can be restored, since some of the information there might be relevant to the case. Can you help? Thanks. Tiamut 19:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I guess I'll ask someone from Arbcomm to undelete it. Tiamut 01:49, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

RFC: Style guideline for PD sourced content

User:Doncram is acting on a conviction that PD-source tags are tantamount to a representation of plagiarism. He has been engaged in discussion on several article talk pages, a template talk page, and a style guideline discussion page, listed at RFC. He has stopped blanking PD-sourced content, but continues to exhort editors, incorrectly in my view, that PD sourced content needs to be enclosed in quotes with intext cites to conform to Misplaced Pages style guidelines. Any light you can shed is appreciated. -- Paleorthid (talk) 19:26, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't see any need for PD content to be placed in quotes rather than just used in the body of the article. Perhaps you should use the Wider attention template to get some additional views there. Angela. 06:16, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

User:Dewarw to Btline

Yes, I know it already exists, I have already created the account, before I was told to come to the user name change page to do it properly (I thought I could abandon one, and move to another). Btline 17:25, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

In that case, you ned to apply to usurp the name. Standard renames can only happen where the account does not exist. Angela. 11:15, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikia not wikipedia template

I took "Wikia, Inc.’s projects, including Search Wikia, Inc., OpenServing, and the Open Source magazine, are in no way related to Misplaced Pages.org or The Wikimedia Foundation." from the page on Internal. Thanks for updating / correcting it. --AlisonW (talk) 13:52, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

peer review

I was wondering if you could take some time out of your schedule to head over to the Heroes (TV series) talkpage and give us an honest peer review. The page has gone through some major changes in the last few months, and it would be fantastic if a prominent editor/contributor like yourself, could head over and give us at the Heroes Wikiproject some sound opinion and ideas on improvements for the page. We have all worked very hard at improving the page, and we need great outside, reliable and trustworthy users to come over and help us improve. I you are interested in joining the peer review discussion with other prominent users/contributors, much like yourself, please follow the link. Thank you very much for your help and your continued effort to improve Misplaced Pages and its quality!

wikipedia Weekly interview

Angela,

Thankyou for taking the time to do the interview the other day - the episode is now live!

As a small token of thanks here is a userbox for the occasion, given to every interviewee of the show.

{{User:Scartol/ubx/WikWeekGuest|41|http://wikipediaweekly.org/2008/02/04/episode-41-setting-the-record-straight/}}

It comes out looking like this:

This user was a guest on Episode 41 of Misplaced Pages Weekly. You can listen here.

If you would like, please add it to your talk-page. And, perhaps you would like to post a mention of the show on your blog...? It would be much needed publicity for the show. I put a lot of time into organising and producing the podcast so it's nice when people tell others about it.

Thanks once again.

You Deleted My Page...

Hi, I'm sorry you deleted my page referring to 'Jade Bishop'. I just thought I would give some credit to this wonderful musician, who does a great job at what he does. I'm a newcomer here at Misplaced Pages as you might know. It's quite sad that you have deleted this page, if you hadn't noticed, my first post was titled UNDER CONSTRUCTION and it's sad that you have deleted this but would there be a way to maybe get by this? Something I could possibly write that will improve the entry?

Please see WP:BAND for guidelines on this. It's likely that Jade Bishop isn't yet notable enough for an article here. Angela. 10:33, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

name change?

If I have my username changed, can i still log-in with my old username? --Jay₁ (Contribs) 17:52, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Not really since the old name would disappear, but you could recreate it. Angela. 10:33, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages Measurement Bug

Hullo, I've been looking around in the firearms sections, and as an immigrant from a metric-world country I know for sure that a meter is longer than a yard. To be sure, I bought a meter-yard stick, a meter is 40 inches, and a yard is 36 inches. The Misplaced Pages measurement converter does it the opposite way. Just a bug I thought needed to be fixed.

Bureaucrat discussion - Misplaced Pages:Requests for bureaucratship/Riana

Misplaced Pages:Requests for bureaucratship/Riana/Bureaucrat discussion

Having briefly discussed this request with Deskana and as we did not think this is a case where a lone bureaucrat should determine the outcome of the discussion, I have created a subpage to allow for bureaucrats to discuss the matter. I realise you have many commitments elsewhere but if you have time, I would be grateful if you could review the RfB and express an opinion as to what outcome you believe is appropriate.

Hello Angela, as member of the m:Ombudsman commission I am following a complaint from an en.wikipedia-user. I would like to review deleted revisions in order to gain some information that I cannot access at the moment. Anthere recommended to seek the flag directly on the project. I therefore would like to ask you to add the administratior flag to my account temporarily. I will not use the flag for other reasons than investigation, i. e. access to deleted revisions.

If you should have any questions or if I should request the flag at some other place, please let me know. Thank you very much. --Hei ber (talk) 10:59, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

I think you ought to request this from a steward on meta:requests for permissions and it should probably not be done by someone from the English Misplaced Pages. Wouldn't it make more sense for one of the Ombudspeople who already have adminship on this wiki to do that task though? Angela.

Cicero's letters to Atticus (Epistolae ad Atticum)

Hi Angela. I notice that you deleted a stub on this three years ago. It's not clear to me why. It's an immensely important book. Cooke (talk) 12:15, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

the Sydney Journal

Hi there, Just thought I'd drop you, and the other sydneysiders who came to the meetup, a line and mention that the first edition of the Dictionary of Sydney's online, peer-reviewed journal is now live.

The Sydney Journal is the first (and most academically rigorous) "product" of the Dictionary. It will be a quarterly publication with a variety of texts from upcoming Dictionary articles and is hosted by UTS E-press. This edition features 4 thematic articles, 6 ethnicities and 5 suburbs - all specifically related to Sydney.

I hope you find it useful and interesting - If nothing else it's essays are eminently referenceable for their corresponding articles here on WP.

Best, Witty Lama 12:57, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Great to hear the news. It's a pretty ring, too. --Michael Snow (talk) 17:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

G'day

G'day esteemed person who has expressed interest in Sydney based meetups at this page (I hope that's the correct wording for the formal greeting!!). You may have heard that Australia is to have its very own 'chapter' of the Wikimedia Foundation - and further, there's a meeting coming up to discuss / enact the chapter's incorporation (details here). I'm afraid that I don't know too much about the details of what this entails, other than having a private hope that we might get a secret handshake, and maybe cheap coffee at wikimania (this is a poor attempt at humour - I'm sure that the Chapter's do great work, and it's a good thing that Australia is to have one).

If you're interested in meeting up this weekend (the set date is the 20th) - or later, then please do head over here and sign up, or make a comment at the talk page... the drive to create the chapter has largely come from another town in Australia that I'm afraid I haven't actually heard much about.. and anything they can do.... right? - cheers, Privatemusings (talk) 11:11, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Bramashri swami Sivanandha

Why was this page deleted? Swami Sivanandha is one of the Gurus who is generating the importance of Hindusim.

It didn't cite any sources and there was no evidence in the article itself that the person was notable. Angela. 04:22, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Do you mean the article I deleted in 2006? If you created one yesterday, I didn't delete that and I can't see that it existed. You don't have any deleted edits. Are you sure you saved the page? If you have third party references to support that this poet is encyclopedic, I suggest you try again. Angela. 02:41, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Template creation policy (HasSpoilers deleted for no reason)

I did a template called {{HasSpoilers}}. As you are from Wikia.com too, you should know why we use them for. An admin deleted it here and called me a vandal! I am very sensitive and I am sending a copy to you of what I answered to him. Maybe you can explain me Misplaced Pages policy different from Wikia.com policy.

The vandalic template content was:

to be included in The Celestial Plot. I should have pasted there instead of creating a template, but I am lazy... I prefer templates. And he put this on the template:

This includes blatant and obvious misinformation, and redirects created during cleanup of page move vandalism.

Misinformation? It is a template to be included in articles, I am not claiming that Misplaced Pages is a spoiler or something as that admin seems to think... Strange, no? I did not understand the thing about cleanup of move, I understand Wikia policies, it seems that Misplaced Pages policies are harder for my poor brain.

And I paste here my answer to him:

>Sorry, I did not know about policies here. I come from Literature Wikia and >there we have a template {{spoiler}} to include the >warning. I don't think which is the case for deleting, explain to me, >because I will just include it in some short stories articles that contain >spoilers. > >*Isn't it the same than just pasting the whole sentence? >*Which is the policy? Please say the policy in words me to read a 100 >paragraphs article about wikipedia policy. I don't have much time. If you >won't then don't even bother to answer. >*Is creating a useful template being a vandal? Then we should not create >them? >*I was not "testing" but you said me to use the sandbox. It was to be >included in articles. >*Check http://literature.wikia.com and see that there it is not considered >spoiling. And don't answer me that wikia is wikia and that wikipedia is >wikipedia because I already know, I am not so idiot.

>If some of this sounded rude to you, I felt someone was rude by deleting it >so fast. You could have said that to me first then deleting it.

>And I am not a vandal, please stop harassing me. Being ignorant is not >vandalism. Vandalism is deleting articles and including nonsense. My >template was not nonsense, I think, it is useful.

>David (talk) 01:38, 4 May 2008 >(UTC)

My questions to you are: Am I right or not? Or that template was the devil itself in ways that I cannot imagine?

I am not right, I think I should go back to Wikia.com. At least there, I am not called a vandal for unknown reasons. I am not weeping, but I claim to be treated like a user; I am not a vandal for creating a simple template that everyone in Literature Wikia uses, am I?

I hope you could help me, I admire you since your first welcome to me here back in 2003...
