Re: Deanna Laney

I have restored Deanna Laney as I feel your speedy justification was invalid. If you disagree, please use AFD rather than speedying again. Superm401 - Talk 04:56, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

I will be AfDing this article. However, for future circumstances, please follow this before undeleting a biography of living person which has been deleted due to concerns included in said policy. Daniel 05:01, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

One might reasonably submit that the community's interpretation of BLP has across the past five months changed sufficiently (as) to render certain principles of the Bdj case to be without grounding in policy, such that certain principles ought to be regarded as superseded and forceless, although it is probably correct to suggest that the community ought to make a clearer statement on the summary overturning of BLP-motivated speedy deletions before we explicitly change our practice.

Philly meetup 6

I'm working on planning the sixth Philadelphia meetup, and I'm looking for ideas and votes about the place and location. Since you RSVP'd for the last one I thought you might like to weigh in. Thanks, and I hope to see you there! --TexasDex ★ 22:50, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:CTRShield.svg)

Thanks for uploading Image:CTRShield.svg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 03:32, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Image:Bupropion.svg

Hi Superm401, I have removed your bupropion structure from the bupropion article. Please see Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Chemistry/Structure drawing for the guidelines and detailed instructions for drawing proper chemical structures, diagrams, and reaction schemes. There is also a request page for chemical structures. Сасусlе 04:48, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

hi

im kind of in need of adoption. I also need help trying to prove that I am not a 'fake account' which one user seems to think, and has been convincing everyone of the same thing. I need to be taught more about wikipedia, and was hoping you could please adopt me. Thanks Pollypenhouse (talk) 15:15, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

I would consider adopting you if you were unblocked and acted in good faith, but I will not take sides in your current dispute. Superm401 - Talk 22:59, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Spam discussion

Hi Superm401,

The discussion of whether or not Amazon is an acceptable default url redirect is happening at Misplaced Pages talk:Spam. I would appreciate your support on that page. Thanks Lunchboxhero (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 23:29, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Shout out

Thanks again for all the assists on Benazir Bhutto, you made my user page, and my day! Edit Centric (talk) 04:02, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Berkeley Middle School

Thanks. Sorry about that. My friend said she was going to edit it, but she logged out without doing a thing! — Cuyler91093 - Contributions - 03:33, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Please read articles before nominating for CSD

You recently tagged Youmex for speedy deletion as spam. Did you even bother reading the article? Exactly how is it spam? Please pay more attention to article before nominating them as this is blatantly NOT spam. I don't write spam articles. ···日本穣 04:25, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Lightning Reaction

If Lightning Reaction is too obscure, what do you think about a new article dedicated to shocking games (i.e. merge Shocking Tanks and Lightning Reaction)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ParticleMan (talk • contribs) 20:55, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:Iron Age Italy.png

no thanks for deleting this image after giving me 7 days' warning, over Christmas. I was the author of this map. I uploaded it at a time when it was still good enough to say "I made it". I am not sure if I still keep a copy anywhere. Can you have it undeleted please? It is rather important to several Misplaced Pages articles, and I certainly won't spend another half day re-drawing it. --dab (𒁳) 09:31, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Please leave AIDS (computer virus)

Thank you for bringing the deletion notice to my attention. While I appreciate you going out of your way to give me a heads up, I'd suggest against removing AIDS (computer virus) and other virus articles. Please keep in mind many viruses are listed in the various lists of computer viruses, and most do not have articles. While articles on older viruses, such as AIDS, tend to not be information rich, I think they're fun to read, give a glimpse into how even the not-so-notable viruses used to work, and pique curiosity.

I would encourage proactive individuals, such as yourself, to expand these virus articles, and possibly join the Malware WikiProject. To my knowledge, the virus articles have no leading authorship, so our list of viruses grows without much content, indicating that while many are interested in virus articles, no one yet knows an efficient way to bring volumes of virus-related content into Misplaced Pages.

At least, by keeping articles such as AIDS, we provide something of a template for others to use when a new virus article is merited. The AIDS article is also small, and so I feel it is not much a burden on Misplaced Pages. In the future, please make an argument as to why you'd like to delete an article, but again, thanks for bringing this up with me. Please continue this discussion on the talk page of AIDS. I hope you remove the deletion template from AIDS.

A-Day _(t) 01:44, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

As I noted, my reason was notability. However, the prod has been contested by someone else, and I will not take this to AFD. Superm401 - Talk 18:15, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Not only do I think your response is lax (discussion should go on the AIDS talk page, not mine), but you also forgot to remove your notability template from the AIDS article. By your talk page, it looks like you've made a habit of meddling with articles you shouldn't. Please take responsibility for your mistakes and correct them. I expect better from an admin. A-Day _(t) 03:26, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Egg Monsters from Mars

I saw your merge tag on Egg Monsters from Mars I did not find any comment about it on the proposed receiving article Goosebumps nor did I find a {{mergefrom}} on Goosebumps. A little research at Talk:List of Goosebumps books found that the idea of just merging the list of article into the main article was rejected, based on that I removed the tag suggesting merging one of the books into the main article. If you have questions let me know, thanks Jeepday (talk) 13:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:Uroligheder.jpg

Why did you elect Image:Uroligheder.jpg for speedy deletion? hydrox (talk) 03:08, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, but what do you mean "it has no source"? The uploader claims copyright to these unique images, so they are propably taken by him, and I think we can act in a good faith to this claim. The events the images are related to is evident from context on Freetown Christiania. I hope your not doing this because the images decipt rioting.. hydrox (talk) 12:48, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Uis logo trans.png

Thank you for uploading Image:Uis logo trans.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 22:36, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
