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. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Studydoc (talk • contribs) 14:18, Mar 14, 2007 (UTC).

Deletion of Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency Page

Hi,

I noticed you apparently deleted the "Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency" (MIGA). How come? Is there a copyright infringement (I'm guessing that's what "copyvio" means)?

I should point out I work for MIGA.

Thanks, Michael Durr mdurr@worldbank.org —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mikedurr (talk • contribs) 14:08, August 22, 2007 (UTC).

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Jeff Macpherson, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised.

The userbox template on your page is empty. Did a vandal delete it, or is this on purpose? --Ye Olde Luke (talk) 06:33, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

RFA comments

I see on Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/Discospinster you mentioned a support regarding bots, so I presume you mean the Cobi RFA, unfortunately, it's been closed. Just thought I'd inform you. Rudget. 16:08, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

g'day tawker.....

and I hope you're good! - I thought I'd drop you a line with a couple of questions - firstly to see if you had any idea when / if Mediawiki might have RSS capabilities at all... I'm presuming the answer is that it just can't do it, and it's not on the horizon - but it's worth asking anywhooo, I guess. It also leads me to my more cheeky question - which is to see if you would be at all interested in creating notthe.wikipediaweekly.org at all, and maybe hosting an mp3 file or two? - my small efforts in encouraging community chit chat are intended to be complementary to your own esteemed 'round tables' and interviews - and I've had a few emails from people asking about an RSS feed - which I think is a good idea in principle, but lack the clue to implement / deliver.....

give some thought, and let me know if something like kicking in for the hosting costs might be appropriate, or if you've got any questions at all.... cheers - Privatemusings (talk) 02:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

my RFA

Thank you! Thank you for your support in my RFA. The passed with a final count of (73/3/1), so I am now an administrator. Please let me know if at any stage you need help, or if you have comments on how I am doing as an admin. Have a nice day! :) Aleta 18:19, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I am new to Misplaced Pages and I am trying to create a legitimate article. You wrote a sarcastic comment on why the page should be deleted. I am just learning the ropes here, please allow my article to stay up as I aquire all the neccessary information and references to be a relevant, informative and important article on Misplaced Pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nra4ever5585 (talk • contribs) 20:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Jimmy Wales protection

Why is there any level of protection on the article Jimmy Wales, yet there are few other biographies of living persons on Misplaced Pages that are so protected? Is it because you and Jimmy don't trust the "wiki way" to produce responsible, accountible reference pages related to living people, but you extend the courtesy of "protection" to those who are on the "inside"? It just doesn't seem fair. Like a Chevy salesman who won't let his family drive anything but BMW's. You seem like a hypocrite, just like Jimmy. - Six Eleven (talk) 22:17, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I totally agree, in principle. However, it has not been officially announced. Seeing how that is the most impportant thing here, its probably safe to wait. After all, if all is true, it will only be about 12 more hours or so. Kaiser matias (talk) 05:21, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
