List of M.I.High Characters AfD

Hello, you are an uninvolved administrator and have been recommended to me by User:Bwilkins per this discussion. Please read over it and see what you could do to reopen the AfD and have it closed in the traditional manner. Thank you. Themfromspace (talk) 21:25, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Please do look at my explanation on my talk, and if you have questions let me know. I did recommend that Themfromspace contact you as they're reasonably non-confrontational :-) (talk→ Bwilkins / BMW ←track) 21:30, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Given I think, taken altogether, each keep comment tends to have more sway than each one for delete, I don't think there's any way this AfD could have closed as a delete. Either a no-consensus or a keep close would have been ok, with the sundry takes of editors, this kind of thing can overlap. If this had been closed by an admin I'd say forget it or if you must, take it to WP:DRV, where the outcome would very likely be the same. Since it's a non-admin close there's a wee bit more wiggle room on this one for wondering by some editors, maybe. I think you two might talk it over once more, as to whether it might be a keep or an NC but it ran for 5 days and it's not a delete. Gwen Gale (talk) 22:05, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, I thought they were non-confrontational. Guess I'd better go through RfA soon. LOL. Thanks for your input again (you must hate me by now) (talk→ Bwilkins / BMW ←track) 23:52, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Now and then, someone unhappy about a close may try to find a weakness to wedge upon. Hopefully, sooner or later, they read WP:POINT. Gwen Gale (talk) 16:56, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

This article was flagged for notability. I believe I've added enough sources etc to justify; could you take a look and, if you agree, remove the flag? I can't since I created the article. If you think it still needs work, please let me know. Thanks! --Bookgrrl /lookee here 03:46, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Three reliable-looking sources cited, one's the NYT, text asserts notable career in his field, could use more sources but tag removed. Cheers, Gwen Gale (talk) 03:50, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Harassment by Thunderbird2

Regarding your earlier warnings to Thunderbird2 about claiming harassment. I made some comments about Thunderbird2's use of harassment. I started with a general comment which got removed without reply . I then made a more forceful warning about removing the uncivil content which again got removed without comment. Looking at the page it contains things like declined reasons for Thunderbird2's unblock, comments by the blocking admin and miscellaneous comments that are not harassment. It seems to be the case Thunderbird2 refuses to remove the claimed harassment page User talk:Thunderbird2/Harassment by Fnagaton and Greg L despite its URL misrepresenting others which I think is WP:UNCIVIL and WP:NPA. This behaviour has the effect of continuing to make claims of harassment for content that is not harassment which is against your earlier warnings. What to do? I think miscellany for deletion is OK, what about you? WorkingBeaver (talk) 23:29, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Forget it and forget T-bird. If you don't want to forget, try MfD. Gwen Gale (talk) 23:42, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

ad nauseam ... every one is a simple revert without a word on the Talk page at all. is sufficient to show his particular agendum. He makes exactly 2 reverts every single day, and never gives a reason for them, just reverts. He now, by the way, is accusing me of following him! Thanks. Collect (talk) 02:32, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Although he's not using the talk page, the worry here is I can't warn him about edit warring without warning you. Crooked banks cozying up with crooked governments are a hot topic in the world now (worthily so). Try another wording or cut it down a bit? What do you think? Am I missing something? I may be. Cheers, Gwen Gale (talk) 03:57, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

He is a SPA sock of someone - I suspect Ikip as he is now threatening THF with an RfC for editing in concert with me - which is not only ludicrous, it fits in exactly with what he proposed on the "guests" page. Collect (talk) 11:45, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

I've asked Abbarocks about this. Oh... Abba. :D Gwen Gale (talk) 11:57, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Could give a peek to cleaning something quickly?

Thanks! The account is already neutralized but this stuff should go away, per appropriate policy, IMHO. BusterD (talk) 12:22, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, both articles need to be handled. However, each has over 5,000 edits, which means oversight is the only way. I've left a note for User:Alison. Cheers, Gwen Gale (talk) 12:30, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
