Markus Pöttinger

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Markus Pöttinger, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may contest 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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. 172.165.52.192 19:49, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

The same right as everyone else. If it was against the rules, I wouldn't have been able to do it. If you want, I will sign in and prod it.

And while we are at, what gives you the right to right an article that is that incomplete? And why are you here when your page says you left?172.165.52.192 21:26, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

YOu happy now? If I have to, I will take it to AFD unless of course you do the right thing and improve the article and address my concerns.

My point is it shouldn't matter. If you have an issue with people who aren't signed in prod'ing things, then take it to the appropriate place to see that it isn't allowed to happen in the future. But between now and then, it is allowed. So deal with it. As long as the prod is for a legit reason, it shouldn't be an issue. I can see if you had written an excellent article and I prod'd it because I didn't like the guys name. Fine, complain. But you wrote a one sentence bio. That to me is a legit complaint. The issue you are going after is wrong, IMO. Go after the reasons for the prod, not who prod'd it. Postcard Cathy 21:34, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

I was here on Wikinews business and why can't you follow instructions?

Why the attitude? Come on! You wrote a poor article. It deserves prod'ing. Don't take it so personally. And I did follow instructions in that a person who is not signed in is allowed to prod. If you don't want your articles prod'd, then don't give people a reason to do so. Improve the article and the prod goes!

PS and what instructions are you talking about? The not signed in people are not allowed to prod instructions? Must have missed that one as well as the software people as it happens.

NOt acting as a sockpuppet. At the time, I was cooking dinner, did not anticipate staying on as long as I have and did not sign on. Had I anticipated staying on as long as I have I would have signed on. And you still haven't told me what instructions I did not follow.

PS Forget answering. You are upset about something. If you are upset that I prod'd your article, fine. If you are upset about something else, fine. I don't wish to argue about something that I consider trivial. I am tired of it. If you don't want the article to be deleted, improve it and I will gladly remove the prod. That is all I ever wanted. No more, no less. Now I am signing off in anticipation of a thunder storm arriving. If you want someone else to have a hissy fit with, find someone else.

Butt

What the hell is this about? Who does that...? -- Y not? 02:48, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

OK... but summary reversion is not the same thing as reversion plus sourcing - which is not what you did. -- Y not? 03:29, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

And, you didn't even check what you were reverting... You're quitting Misplaced Pages? Don't let the door hit you on the way out. -- Y not? 03:32, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Owen Hargreaves' height

I beg your pardon? I revert one of your edits to reflect proper Misplaced Pages policy, and you call me a Nazi? Grow up, WP:AGF and WP:CIVIL. - fchd 18:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

What policy do you think I am trying to change? I'm merely using the standard usage of British terms for British subject articles. fchd 19:08, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

So you've now gone from accusing me of "changing policy" and calling me a "Nazi" to accusing me of "inconsistency" - so far so good. Look at a few hundred British football player articles. How many of them have feet/inches as the primary units of height measurement - well over 50%. They also use British spelling and phraseology. That's policy. You don't need consensus to apply policy. - fchd 19:53, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Bayern

the FC Bayern Munich article has one indiscretion I dont know how to fix. it shows four (4) stripes on our home jersey, do you know how to fix it to be the correct number of three (3).

thanks --Jadger 18:57, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

see here: shows clearly only 3 stripes, the wikipedia article has 4 on it.

Wanna get blocked again?

I don't need these kind of provocative remarks of yours. Unless you're looking for trouble again. You'll probably say no, but then again what's your word worth or is this some weird German way of leaving wikipedia?Rex 18:23, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
