Ok, the bot takes care of almost everything I do, I'm swamped with work right now. I'm outta here. If you need anything urgent, email me. -- Tawker 01:03, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Removal of template acknowledging source of imported material
Please see Template talk:EnPW. I see that a dozen or more pages had that acknowledgment removed "per Danny". A violation of license, on the face of it. Robin Patterson 18 Feb 2007
Master Nan
I assume you are the one who deleted the article on Master Nan. I can't understand why you did that as the sources were cited and corrections were made to avoid copyright infringement. Moreover, at the time the only tag on the article was for the article to be cleaned up. All I did was try to reiterate some facts on a famous buddhist scholar and all the work put into it has been deleted in a flash and without warning. I cannot claim to be tech savvy enough to know whether you are directly responsible, but if so, it makes unfamiliar and new contributors like myself have a strong sense of distaste that there is not even the chance for correction. What's the point of trying to establish an article if it keeps on getting deleted before it's done. If you could please give specific reasons why it was deleted as the article was rewritten to avoid copyright infringement.
Methinks Colbert just claimed his account.....

It seems that Tawker is blocking the account to garner some unwarranted relevancy/fame for doing so.71.177.82.26
- He never once claimed that the account was indeed his, and Jimmy, after contacting Colbert's staff about it, has made clear that the account should remain blocked. Let it go. AmiDaniel (talk) 09:55, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- I never posted the ifilm link, don't assume. Moving on, then Tawker should remove the "if and when" etc., from his reasons, it just reads as sad.71.177.82.26
Jason Calacanis
I have reason to believe that Jason has been hiring Wikipedians for his Mahalo venture. There has been a wave of advertising targeted at Misplaced Pages over the last few days. This is more than just random noise. I am thinking about bringing this to WP:COIN and WP:SSP. Do you have any information on this?
I see you added Mahalo to Calacanis' page with a reference. That's proper, and now that it's sourced, I would even support adding a disambiguation comment to Mahalo. However, I have a big problem with this being done by people on Mahalo payroll, and I have an even bigger problem with them deleting other stuff from the Mahalo page in an attempt to WP:OWN it.
I am going to point User:Durova to this and ask for her comments aswell. Jehochman 22:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- I have not hired any Wikipedians to work on Mahalo.com nor have I asked anyone from our staff to edit our page. In fact, I requested our page be completed via the Misplaced Pages channels. Also, if I did hire some Wikipedians to work at Mahalo would that be a bad thing? Hasn't Jimmy Wales hired a bunch of Wikipedians to work at Wikia? JasonCalacanis 22:32, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- I am glad to hear that you are following WP:COI. You're welcome to hire anybody you like, including Wikipedians, as long as they follow that policy. Now, if only we can get you to sign your posts by adding four (~) at the end, like this ~~~~. ;-) Jehochman 23:05, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- OK, so when are you starting!?!? :-) Seriously, I think that there are many Wikipedians who would do a great job at Mahalo.com. However, right now we're only hiring folks to work in our office in Santa Monica. If you know anyone in Los Angeles looking for a gig certainly send them my way! (oh yeah, I know about the four tilda thing...) JasonCalacanis 23:08, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
