Your bot seemed to think my first draft of the Wynne Godley article contained a lot from the Telegraph obituary, apparently on the basis of some salient facts? It seems rather oversensitive; I just wrote the first draft to cover the main events,<small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 10:50, 23 May 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> | |||
== question re: conversation on another talk page == | |||
Without touching on any of the back and forth that I've no desire to jump in to, I did see one good point that may have been missed. Have you considered commenting at ] on your stance regarding the serious of removing these rights without propper reasons?--] (]) 16:37, 14 June 2010 (UTC) | |||
:That thread is a mess, because it conflates a number of only tangentially related issues about procedure and policy wording. To be entirely honest, I don't care very much ''at this time'' about the dispute about who gets to remove the bit and how to go about it — we're still heading only for a ''test'' after all and such things are predictably in flux. I don't know how helpful another voice in that fray would be. | |||
:My point is that using ''any'' admin power abusively is grounds for a desysop, and I doubt you'll find many people to defend the position that using threat of removing the bit from someone who isn't vandalizing or letting vandalism through is in any way acceptable; even if it's not yet clear what the "right" process would be in cases of real misuse. | |||
:I think it's important to let the dust settle down a little before going crazy with process. Writing policy by guessing at what the problems ''might'' be is rarely a good idea. — ] <sup>]</sup> 16:48, 14 June 2010 (UTC) | |||
::Fair enough. Just thought with admins promoting the 'who cares if it's taken away wrongly it only takes a few clicks to give it back' point of view I wouldn't have minded another voice or two saying what you just said. That abusing an admin power is abusing an admin power.--] (]) 16:58, 14 June 2010 (UTC) | |||

== re; Katherine Chon art. == | |||
Hello - my article on katherine chon, founder of Polaris Project, was flagged for copying from the organization's web page - there were some direct quotations, but they were attributed to the page. In addition, the content used was used with permission from the site owner. I did note that donated text is still beholden to wiki guidelines, however, I believe that it complies in this case. | |||
Thanks, | |||

Hello, | |||
A list is a list. In this case, it is a list of exactly 81 items which were allowed to pass into Gaza. Those were the only items allowed entry and no others. This cannot be a copyright violation, as there is no copyright on a list... I have removed the banner. ] (]) 05:40, 15 June 2010 (UTC) | |||

== Deleted Diabetes Insulin Tutorial page == | |||
Hi. I just started trying to set up a Diabetes Insulin Tutorial page - and received a bot message to say that there could be a copyright violation - siting a similar website. The next thing I know the Diabetes Insulin Tutorial start page has been deleted. The bot sited a web page hosted by Rick Mendosa. I made this material available to Rick Mendosa for use at his website!! I would like to expand the Diabetes Insulin Tutorial - and make it available for others to contribute to - and add to. Something which I cannot do at my own website which hosts the original source material on the internet. Please check out: http://www.2aida.info | |||
I am working my way through the copyright declaration info - and would be grateful were you to advise how I may have long enough to get the material up on the web + updated without it being summarily deleted... | |||
Thanking you for any assistance that you may be able to provide. | |||

Could you double check why a message was left at ]. I can't see any similarity in text and am concerned to know what caused the "match" because of the huge number of short asteriod articles Misplaced Pages has. It could lead to a mass of taggings. ] (]) 22:45, 17 June 2010 (UTC) | Could you double check why a message was left at ].

User talk:Rohedin
Coren,
Could you take a look? Rohedin got himself in another jam. I'm really pretty sure this is him being sort of dumb, rather than a hacker, but he's had unblock requests declined twice and I think we could user your Checkuser magic pixie dust. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:29, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Pascal Coste
As asserted in the edit summary, this is a translation of the French wikipedia article at http://fr.wikipedia.org/Pascal_Coste. http://www.speedylook.com/Pascal_Coste.html is a translation of the same French article, hence the apparent similarity. Please stop deleting it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neddyseagoon (talk • contribs) 12:19, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Anderson Avenue
Anderson Avenue (New Jersey) has been moved as a merge since the move option did not appear possible and is so recorded and re-directed.Djflem (talk) 21:42, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
William Way Community Center
Thanks for your cool bot which captured the copywrite from the William Way webpage. I am the new Executive Director of William Way and so OK the minor use of webpage text (I revised the page to have even less direct language). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Harveymilk (talk • contribs) 12:26, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Anglo-Saxon turriform churches
I don't know what's going on here. I just created this as a brand new article, and almost immediately the bot tagged it as a possible copyvio. When I clicked on the link provided, the notice from the bot was there as well as an exact copy of the article. I suspect this is a mirror site with very fast reflexes, but how do I prove it? I will place a notice on the article talk page as suggested in the template, but I would appreciate human help in resolving this.Yngvadottir (talk) 21:27, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Coren, this is another hit from http://www.thepaleochorasite.com/. Any chance of white listing them to avoid the insta-mirror effect? VernoWhitney (talk) 21:47, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Removed search-bot's tag re: The Red-Headed League (1985 TV Episode)
Just a note to say I triggered your search bot in moving the page, and have removed the tag. This being my first stab at this, I've goofed, and now see how to do this. Am going to blank and tag the page for deletion, and start over. Thanks.Jusdafax 01:39, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
