Hello!
Letter To America
Letter To America has been proposed for deletion. An editor Awesimo 00:18, 9 March 2007 (UTC) felt this website might not yet be notable enough for an article. Please review Misplaced Pages:Notability (websites) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.
If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that it meets Misplaced Pages guidelines, it may be sent to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion for consensus.

- My opinion is that Letter To America is indeed notable enough for a Misplaced Pages article based upon the size of its audience (you can check the Frappr map on the "LTA website", nomination and competition in several high-profile blog competitions such as the Irish Blog Awards, and notoriety of its creator, Jett Loe. In short, I think LTA has earned its place and is continuing to grow. FlyingToaster 07:14, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

SIGBOVIK
As much as I want SIGBOVIK to live a thousand years, as its only mentions come from Livejournals at the moment, do you think that section should perhaps be removed until there is some attributable source for the conference? In my opinion it would make sense to leave it in the links at the bottom... Sirmob 06:50, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hey Sirmob - I did attribute the "SIGBOVIK website" in the article. I'll assume you didn't see it, but if you did and don't feel this is enough please let me know. FlyingToaster 03:50, 2 April 2007
- That's a self reference, obviously, even though I think I think it is reasonable to get away with leaving that link under external links. I gave a talk at SIGBOVIK today, it's not like I want to delete the information, but I think having the section on SIGBOVIK risks the page being deleted, which I also wouldn't want. And I suppose this is pretty close to a thing we made up in grad school one day, at least this time around :). Sirmob 07:16, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Indeed it is self-reference, and for SIGBOVIK I doubt anything better will surface. So, I'll leave it up to you whether to get rid of it or not. The sentence or two seems innocent enough, but if you feel it's approaching thing we made up in grad school one day deleteable level, please feel free to get rid of it. :) FlyingToaster 07:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- I sentence-ified the link reference at the end - and don't be so sure that "nothing better will surface," if we keep this up multiple years I suspect people will take note. And failing that, I suppose we could just talk to someone at The Tartan ;-) Sirmob 13:19, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Rollbackery
Sure, can't see any problems with that so I've added it to your account. Please be sure to only use it for reverting vandalism and other edits that are obviously not okay as any administrator can remove it if it's used inappropriately or in content disputes. You can have a look over Misplaced Pages:Rollback feature for guidelines on using it. Cheers, Sarah 01:14, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
Trickery on my talk page
Dear Madam, you engaged in borderline vandalism, but let's just call it a deceptive little trick you played on me. In the aftermath of your 'tricky' edit, my friend Matt (incidentally your college mate from CMU) saw what you did, and he kindly reverted the minor damage introduced by you. So, I have questions for you:
- Why did you do it?
- Was it an honest mistake?
- Or did you want the other editors to think that I rescinded my withdrawal so that negative votes and comments (about me) would start rolling in?
Overall, your actions were pretty harmless (only because my friend Matt caught it in time). But I want to note a contradiction: For an editor (you) that makes allegations about my vandalism, you seem to have poor editing quirks yourself. --Inet:o3 06:22, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
