Page deletion

Revolution within the form is up for deletion. I ask for a vote to transwiki. Thanks. WHEELER 00:29, 3 March 2006 (UTC)


Thanks for voting

I'd just like to take a moment to thank you, Mike Halterman for voting in my request for adminship regardless if you voted for or against me. Seeing some very valid concerns, I've pulled the RfA until some of the concerns can be addressed. Thanks for your comments, I'll use them to help better myself -- Tawker 02:17, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey there

Had no idea you were so active on here ^_^ I've been slaving away on the Jeff Miller article... I know it's not much, but hey, you've got to start somewhere. Disavian 12:12, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

re:Billboard new Hot 100 chart

Hi Mike! I get my Billboard info from their online services. billboard.com usually posts the new number one album on Wednesday afternoon - sometimes they'll also mention the new number one single. As far as other charts go, I am a paid subscriber to the magazine which gives me access to all the charts online, usually on Thursdays, at billboard.biz. I sometimes see wikipedia chart articles updated pretty early - I don't know what other editors' sources are, but my rule of thumb is to not update that stuff til Billboard officially publishes it. -- eo 11:56, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Jim Croce

Hey. Last August you added in the following to the Jim Croce article:

Recently, his widow, Ingrid, was allowed to obtain the permissions for all of his songs. Since then, she has allowed a PBS special to be made from archive footage as well as footage from the Croce family collection, in order to, in her words, "keep his legacy alive".

I he only references I can find to a daughter are all from wikipedia... Do you remember where you got the information to begin with? It'd be helpful. Anyway, thanks in advance. --Falcorian 07:29, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind... I see someone added in the part I was interested in later... Sorry to bother you! --Falcorian 07:32, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

"Heidieh"

I do beleive you are right... I looked at the edits by the users who added it, and they threw it up a few places (some of which were removed promptly too). I think I got them all now though. --Falcorian 16:21, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Hi Mike. I Remind you of you, eh? It will come as a surprise to you then that I like Days, and never much cared for Another World ! Anyway, I wanted to thank you for taking the time to consider my RfA, which passed this morning. If there's ever anything I can help you with, just ask; you know where to find me. ×Meegs 07:39, 11 March 2006 (UTC)


AID

Thank you for your support of the Article Improvement Drive.
This week Great Leap Forward and Decline of the Roman Empire were selected to be improved to featured article status.
Hope you can help…

Sonofagun...

I swore I'd never come back to this crazy site, but I'm glad I snuck a peek at my old user page. I'm glad there's at least one person who misses me.

I'm hanging around some other interest-specific wiki sites, especially a radio control wiki at Wikicities which I've been busily adding to. Phroziac is the founder and she made me an admin off the bat and later a bureaucrat, although I haven't used the bureaucrat function. Yet.  :) If you swing by this wiki, you can drop me an e-mail since I deleted the e-mail contact info over here. I'll fill you in on all the sordid details.

AW screenshot

I noticed your screenshot of Lindsay Lohan as Alli on Another World, and I wondered how many AW tapes you actually had. I am a BIG fan of the series and I'd like to know if you had any extra tapes you could spare...I'd really appreciate it. Also, you might be interested in the AW userbox.

Have a nice day! Mike H. That's hot 22:40, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I wish I could help; I found the cap on lindsayfans.com, which got it through lindsaylohan.net, and it doesn't look like the person who posted it there is still active on the message boards. Someone there (ll.net) might be able to point you in the right direction, though. Good luck! RadioKirk talk to me 23:08, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Current time

Hi, Mike. Hope you're enjoying the Category:date math templates.

Latest versions:

You can use {{utc}} with any integer from 0 to 23. For UTC+2 use "2" and for UTC-5 use "24 - 5 = 19". Cheers! --Uncle Ed 19:44, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Dark Shadows

Shkarter1985 sounds very angry about something, I have no idea what. But, in any case, the Dark Shadows page is back to the version we agreed upon, so my inclination is to let it be.

By the way, the bold on the second mention of Dark Shadows in the intro was intentional, and I think follows wiki policy on article titles, though it is no big deal one way or the other. Rick Norwood 02:10, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Now that I go to look for the reference, I can't find it. Never mind. Rick Norwood 15:25, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Action in circumventing Misplaced Pages Policy vis a vis Stephen Dare

According to the guidelines for creating entries, after an article has been nominated for deletion, users may be bold in reediting and cleaning up an article, perhaps restubbing and submitting. As a result of the issue, I spent a good amount of time researching what is a legitimate article for inclusion. After showing a clear and inexplicable interest in deleting the post on the subject, you deleted, then write protected the page after I followed the instructions laid out in the guidelines . I believe that this is a clear violation of good faith, and I'm not certain exactly how you are qualified to make any decisions about the validity of another writer's work based on simply your own fiat.

According to your user profile, neither arts nor city development is of any interest to you, and except for having lived in the same city as the subject, you don't seem to know anything about the post.

I think that the move to undelete the article was precipitated by the clear homophobia indicated by the myspace page links on the AfD page, and I would think that you would have been conscious of that.

The article was a mess, full of innacuracies and etc, which is why I spent time verifying the information and reworking it. Perhaps you wouldnt mind explaining to me your inconsiderate behavior.

I find your action precipitous and rude. You could have at least notified me that you wanted to delete my new article BEFORE you simply chucked hours of my time.Carstenboswell 00:32, 20 March 2006 (UTC)carstenboswell


Katelyn Faber

Could you weigh in at the bottom of the Talk Page for Katelyn Faber regarding the inclusion of an image of her? User:Tufflaw, who unsuccessfully tried to have the entire article deleted back in December 2005 insists on censoring/deleting it for extremely specious reasons, and I've been asked to gather a consensus.
