Why did you delete http://en.wikipedia.org/Big_D_Kuwaiti_Rapper you did not even put a purpose? and the subject has massive importance as for being a well known musician in my country for 11 years? and there was references? and proper statements! facts and explanations? <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 12:00, 17 April 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
== Araçari == | |||
- I went to the talk pages first to propose the change, and nobody objected. | |||
- In linguistic terms, the spelling should indeed be araçari in order to yield the correct pronunciation /arasari/. | |||
- Aracari is linguistically non-standard spelling in English, since it yields the incorrect pronunciation /arakari/. | |||
- In order for people to be able to pronounce a word correctly, they need to have the information that makes that | |||
possible. | |||
- Araçari is not Spanish. In Spanish the spelling is Arasarí. | |||
- Garrigues and Dean use the spelling with the cedilla. | |||
- I checked the purple project box before making any change. The title there is araçari. That led me to believe that it was inability to type accents rather than policy that had led to the spelling without the accent in the articles in question. | |||
- An assumption of good faith on my part, and talking to me before simply reverting would have been nice. | |||
] (]) 12:31, 6 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
:- Façade (and café, and mañana, etc.): my point exactly. When necessary, the diacritics of loanwords are retained. . | |||
:- I understood GF perfectly well. Calling an edit GF and treating it as being in good faith are not the same thing. By the same token, I see you’ve simply reverted my suggestion from the talk pages rather than responding to it. Not good form. | |||
:- As far as consistency is concerned, the Toucans, Toucanets and Araçaris project is itself inconsistent: the project title uses the spelling with the cedilla, individual articles don’t. | |||
:- In the absence of consensus and consistency, it is more logical to standardise the more functional spelling rather than the less functional. I was certainly planning on making the change throughout if I hadn’t run into the redirect problem, and been reverted before I had time to find out how to deal with it. | |||

==Michael Stevens== | |||
Your hasty deletion on the grounds that the article was "Unambiguous advertising or promotion: unsourced biography of a living person" was patently a mistake. | |||
The multiple cited references in the article included major respected sources such as the Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, the New York Daily News, the official websites of the Kennedy Center, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (confirming the multiple Emmy awards) and HBO. The subject of the article is also clearly notable by all Misplaced Pages standards for BLP. | |||
Given the above, I would appreciate you reinstating the article immediately. Thank you ] (]) 18:54, 6 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
== Areocracy is a good word == | |||
Areocracy is a good word - there are none like it -your explanation was a vague copy and paste and your action was rash. I'd like the word so I can use it and point to it when I need to write something on the web that is related. There's got to be a way to keep from my word getting stolen by you obnoxious veterans I already submitted the word to the dictionary people. You've made this a "thing" when it was just a new word that the world needs. I'd appreciate a reply and some clear thoughtful directions. thanks in advance! Ed ] (]) 05:30, 8 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
from, Jimfbleak"Unfortunately, Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, not a blog or social networking page, and is not for something you have made up or original research. Your recent article did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:43, 8 April 2012 (UTC)" | |||
Respectfully; I pray you stop sending me torts that reek of a copy and paste response or some easy variation of the same. I know it's not a blog. Areocracy as a defenseless word, has little to do with personal opinion. | |||
How do new words form and influence culture if they cannot be created from the building blocks of literature ie; Latin/Greek? | |||
An encyclopedia or(as you write)encyclopaedia of what? Old words that don't define our current experience? And why talk me out of it? The word Areocracy needs to exists, based on new literal technological understandings. Before there were planes, there were ships. Thalassocracy is a word that describes the old way of nations or states ruling over the globe. Now we have a new technology that does the same thing but with a new and different technology. Unfortunately I understand the motivation and ego that I'm dealing with here and respectfully I'm asking for a direction to go. I will go in a direction with this. Using my obvious ignorance on how to submit new writings on here and dismissing me and the word Areocracy in a flippant way as a social blogger in 2 sentences isn't helping. As my senior I'm asking you to reconsider before I make another effort. Thank you for the reply. Don't take my response as disrespectful Just, thanks for writing back, don't take it wrong. Areocracy is not going away. ] (]) 17:15, 8 April 2012 (UTC) | |||

Regarding the article created: http://en.wikipedia.org/University_of_Birmingham_Liberal_Democrats | |||
This article was deleted for suspected copyright infringement, for linking to an external website, which we actually designed ourselves and own the rights. | |||
We cant understand why you deleted this, particularly as it was quite extensive with research and references. | |||
Any response and perhaps a restoration would be welcome. | |||
Many thanks. | |||

Hey, Jim. I just poked around at the bove user's userpage after commenting on the ] AFD about his intention to flame. It almost seems he takes pride in getting banned for these sort of things. It's granted that any action against a user should generally not be proactive, but ''re''active; this said, I'm seeing red flags. You think it's worth worrying about him? --] (] and ]) 20:11, 9 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
