== speedy deletion ==

hello, I was tagged for speedy deletion (b/c of an article being too short: a stub) but all I am trying to do is create a customized wikipedia signature. I read that I should create a user page/ sub-page to do this. Just learning the ropes. Please let me know what I should have done differently to create this custom signature and not have the sub-page deleted. Thanks you.
(see: User:Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2) actually looks like you have already deleted it. Please advise. I don't feel like spending another hour relearning and doing it all over again. Thanks. --] (]) 00:49, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
:you created it in the mainspace somehow instead of your user space. ] (]) 00:50, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
::actually you did nothing wrong I apologize, for some reason it showed listed at new page patrol, normally userpages won't show up there. ] (]) 00:56, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

:::no problem... can I recover it somehow. The code was certainly not overly complicated just that I'm not super excited about going through all the steps again (i am new to wikipedia editing). Thanks. --] (]) 00:59, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
:::I see what happened now,you did create it in the wrong place and someone moved it for you. It's in it's proper place now ] ] (]) 01:01, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
:::: Awesome. Thanks Ridernyc + thanks to anonymous mover of sub pages. LOL Cheers. --] (]) 01:02, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

New quick question for you, though. How come my customized signature works on my subpage () but is not showing up when I put the four tildes and sign my posts. There seems to be two area that I need to update after making a subpage (My preferences: where I have intentionally left the user field empty) and (My settings: where I have input the tag -> {{subst:User:(Skychildandsonofthesun)/(User:Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2)}} ) but it does not seem to work. Do you know what I am doing wrong or where I can get someone to help me sort this out.

I have been to http://simple.wikipedia.org/Help:Making_a_signature but when I follow the instructions it does not work. THANKS ] (]) 02:04, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

== Yolmo ==

Hi Ridernyc. The Yolmo article you CSD'd has a few issues. Please avoid using CS1 if an article is mere seconds old (not to chew you out or anything). The Yolmo people are natives of Nepal and they've been redlinked in a few Nepalese articles for some time. I'll add some basic information and wikify it, but there's been a candidate for transwikification on Wikibooks for ages it seems. ] (]) 05:00, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
:I agree I might have a bit quick on that one, sorry. ] (]) 05:02, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
:::No harm done - I've been guilty of the same before. Unfortunately the article will really need an expert on the subject to shine, but in the meantime I'll add the bare minimum of information I've found and mark it for ] to come and investigate. Have a good Christmas. ] (]) 05:08, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Ridernyc's talk archive page 1 page 2

Sorry

I would like to apologize over a recent dispute we had. I thought that all the original research was cleared out of the article but it turns out that some the "facts" I saw were simply OR in disguise. I was foolishly unaware and thus acted stupidly. I understand what's going on now so I sincerely hope that you can forgive me for that. Thank you for showing me the truth and helping me be a better editor. Please accept this peace offering. --Twilight Helryx has given you a dove! Doves promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day happier. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a dove, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past (this fits perfectly) or a good friend. Cheers!

Apology(Ignacio Santibáñez)

It was hardly a article.The author should have tried it in sandbox.Even then I apologize,if the prod seemed disruptive.Happy New Year!--Adi4094 (talk) 09:01, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Hardly an article is no reason to prod. I'm going through your CSDs and prods right and your understanding of how the process works needs some work. I've already found one CSD that is clearly not a CSD candidate. I recommend you take a break from new page patrol. Ridernyc (talk) 09:04, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Really sorry

I clicked on the vandalism tab as i thought u marked my edits as vandalisation.I'm new.I reverted those immediately.Really sorry.Not my lucky day I guess. --Adi4094 (talk) 09:23, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

again since you are new I think it would be best if you learn a bit more before you patrol new pages. Ridernyc (talk) 09:29, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Why should i care?

Well if anyone wants to block me... ok. I was only doing what i was doing for fun any how. Thanks for the heads up though, i guese. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Corekidkiller (talkcontribs) 03:36, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't you be held to your own standards? Ever consider getting consensus to keep the articles as they were before I made the correct changes? You are not the authority on those pages, as much as you'd might imagine. Deusfaux (talk) 10:43, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Consensus is clearly on my side since other people have reverted your changes in the past, and you are the only one who feels the need to make the changes. 11:28, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
