MessagesArchives: The Basement · My desk · My Barnstars Thanks for the welcomeHi Nick, Just letting you know that I replied on my talk page. You can remove this notice now if you like. 81.104.210.31 11:12, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
maybe it was n00b massages ;) 81.104.210.31 11:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC) I registered to upload a picture!

Most of the YouTube links were removed from this series of articles a while ago because they lacked copyright information, but the one you removed does have copyright information. It's at the end of the video and says "© Al Coritz 2006, Deadly Beautiful Zoological, LLC." Did you accidentally not notice this, or is this copyright information not good enough? If not, what's missing? --Jwinius 16:03, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
You are just not willing to cease your disruption? Get over it. — Nearly Headless Nick 17:35, 18 December 2006 (UTC) ..."disruption" is a grossly inappropriate term, and it is uncivil of you to even suggest that a good faith editorial opinion given on a talkpage is "disruptive." Reread the Wiki definition of disruptive, toute de suite. Cindery 05:55, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
The clip has been copied from another independent source that holds the copyright to that video clip. The copyright information showing at the end of the video-clip does not mean that the copyright holder has licensed YouTube to use the clip. Do you not understand the difference? Why not assume good faith with me and let it rest. There is already consensus regarding the issue on the WP:ANI page. Check here – WP:ANI#YouTube_link_deletion. Regards, — Nearly Headless Nick 13:25, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
...that is incorrect: all the admins are NOT agreeing with you. You do not have consensus AT ALL on any of the many discussions on policy pages--consensus is against you, in fact. Cindery 07:20, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
YOU list them--I could use a laugh. And admin opinions, in any case, donot count for more than anyone else's--takea long look at the NOR and EL policy pages. Cindery 07:25, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Your legal ignorance is currently placing Misplaced Pages in who knows how much legal jeopardy regarding libel--unsubstantiated allegations ofcopyright violation--and there is consensus that YOU are disruptive: please see current discussion at EL regarding filing a user conduct RFC against you, that you should be apologizing, etc. Cindery 02:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC) YouTube link removalsPlease stop removing the YouTube links on "Daniel Edwards" Misplaced Pages page. I'm the filmmaker that made those short films and I have given my permission for the links to be there. www.GoodnightFilm.com You link to in your edit summaries, but I don't see anything like "Sites which fail to provide licensing information" in the criteria. Am I missing something? TransUtopian 16:20, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
Cindery 09:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC) Islamic terrorismHi again Sir Nicho. I thought most of the views at the Afd were for naming it Islamist terrorism instead of Islamic terrorism. Cheers -- Szvest - 12:28, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
TfDDear Nicholas, I am here again.(Since you brought me to life, I wait additional care now.!!) Please take a look to this case(If you have time); I opened a TfD. Creator of Template deleted/divided and transferred my and some other comments. I sent many messages to that user about Tfd. But he insists to destroy my comments. He changed the name of Template when TfD in process. here the last version of TfD( if not changed in some minutes again) Is it alloved this action before TfD close.?
User talk Also you can find his comments on my Talk page. Regards Must 16:46, 20 December 2006 (UTC) I would love to......but I do not know how myself. It is incredibly frustrating when dealing with people who simply won't listen. I deal with a significant number of people who simply ignore the rules because they think they know better but so far have not (I believe) attacked anyone - which I think is pretty good as I'm now at ~5250 edits :).-Localzuk 16:55, 20 December 2006 (UTC) Your signatureHello there, I was wondering if you would please modify your signature to conform to the guidelines laid out at Misplaced Pages:Sign your posts on talk pages. The general guidelines are that signatures shouldn't contain images, they shouldn't contain unnecessary internal links or any external links, and they shouldn't be unnecessarily long in Wiki source. The reasoning for this final bit is that overly long signatures tend to overwhelm the actual comments in edit mode, making it hard to track down and respond to specific comments. You can fix your signature by removing any images and external links, any unnecessary links (like links to Wikipedian organizations, articles, or subpages in userspace), and removing excessive color, font, and formatting code. Thank you. --Cyde Weys 17:49, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
Lennonhi Nick - I don't want to get embroiled in the AP:EL border wars, but I did want to ask you about your removal from John Lennon of the 2 you tube clips. They were not add-ons in an "external link" section, but actually integrated into, and illustrative of, points being made in the text. I stopped reading the EL talk page because I couldn't take it any more, but I recall there being some movement against wholesale removal of You Tube references just because they are You Tube. So are you sure that these 2 need to be removed? thanks Tvoz 20:05, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes, Tvoz, there is a difference of opinion on this matter, and all the administrators who are comfortably aware of the policies and guidelines of this place have their reasons as to why YouTube links should be removed. Have a look here User:Dmcdevit/YouTube (admin), User:J.smith/YouTube Linklist (admin). Regards, — Nearly Headless Nick 05:36, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
The overwhelming consensus on policy pages is NOT a blanket You Tube ban--the overwhelming consensus is that there are some valid You Tube links, and therefore no blanekt ban is possible. You are grossly in error, and aware of it--you are, at this point, deliberately misrepresenting the truth. We call this lying, and it is evidence of bad faith. The current RFC is a user conduct RFC against you, and to the extent that anyone has even suggested it pertains to You Tube and policy it regards your disruptive behavior in refusing to honor the fact that there is no blanket You Tube ban. See EL, ANI, etc. Cindery 05:53, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
The ONLY words you should be saying to me are "I was wrong, I apologize." Cindery 06:05, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
You are not helpful, Nick, as you are aware--you are lying, bullying people, and disrupting Misplaced Pages. Cindery 06:23, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
As I have pointed ou already, you can say "I'm sorry, I was wrong"--to a lot of people, as in, the community--and then do something constructive with your time. Cindery 06:32, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
I missed the part where you apologized to the community. Cindery 06:38, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Stop wasting MY time, and the community's time--keeping bullies in check is a dirty job, but bummer for you-- I WILL be doing it. Again: you do not have consensus. You are lying about it. The consensus at the RFC is that you should desist and apologize. Below, a member of the extreme *minority* to which you belong has noted that you are incapable of knowing when the "drop it and move on." There isn't anything for you to do except apologize/get over it/admit you were wrong/move on already. Cindery 08:00, 22 December 2006 (UTC) Sometimes it's time to dropit and move on...The debate over the barrington link has become a waste of time. The same arguments are being repeated over and over. I think at this point it is a better use of our time to simply move on. ---J.S 23:04, 20 December 2006 (UTC) Edit summaries on talk pagesHi. I noticed that you most of your edit summaries to talk pages are just "comment", i.e. that you overwrite the automatic edit summary (normally consisting of section heading). May I politely suggest that you don't do that? — I'm often interested in which section someone has commented, especially in long pages such as WP:AN, and when you erase the section name, the edit summary totally loses the purpose: I still have to use the diff to find out where you commented. At least, please append the "comment" to the section title. Now that you're an admin, you don't have to be anal about 100% edit summaries — the automatic one works better on talk pages.

Block log summariesHi there. I was looking at your block log summary here (21 Dec), and I noticed you used the phrasing "etc, etc." Do you think you could avoid using imprecise and open-ended expressions like that? It would be best to say what you can fit in, and what exactly the block was for, rather than vague hand-waving. Thanks. Carcharoth 16:01, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Articles for deletion/Dave Gilbert (game designer)How exactly did you arrive at Keep? Andre (talk) 21:09, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
I am deeply troubled by yet-another out of process action by this admin and the in-civil, flip response. —Malber (talk • contribs) 16:49, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Mimsy: did you happen to read the policy on how an admin should close an AfD debate? You're supposed to gauge consensus, not use your position to push a decision. —Malber (talk • contribs) 18:32, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm not sure why Andre is so against going to DRV. Surely it would be an ideal place to Review a Deletion? --Amaccormack 12:07, 23 December 2006 (UTC) YSR page protectWhile I normally applaud any moves to protect a page that is seeing massive reverts, I think that you came in perhaps a tad too early on this one; my last statement on the talk page after removing a section of the article was , indicating that the section needed merely to be rewritten. The request to discuss was ignored once, but I doubt it would have been ignored twice, when my edit summary specifically requested it. (There are some newbies involved, I think). The discussion on that had not begun yet, and so perhaps a page-protect was not immediately called for, as there was insufficient evidence to my mind that people were unwilling to talk. Just a thought. Hornplease 11:41, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Meh.Boo. Hiss. Can you honestly say there was consensus for a delete and re-direct here? -- weirdoactor 14:35, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Your block of User:MalberHi, Sir Nicholas. Since I was one of the people who disagreed with your block of User:Malber, I also wanted you to know that I don't agree either with some of the more vociferous criticism that followed the block. The policy against an admin's blocking someone whom he or she is personally in a dispute with (whether it's a content dispute or, as here, more of a policy dispute) is a good one. The other problem I had with it was that you went pretty quickly from what seemed like partly joking around ("/me desyops myself ... /me desysops badlydrawnjeff") straight to a pretty long block, which I think surprised a lot of people, and 48 hours was a longish block just for disrupting a noticeboard. But at the same time I definitely hope this user will take into account some of the comments that have been made about his questioning style. We shall see what happens; hoping for the best. Regards, Newyorkbrad 17:15, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
You are quite unclear on what constitutes "disruption" (hint: diagreeing with you is NOT it) and this makes your apology regarding the block, your "plea" to the community to forgive to appear rather, er, insincere and contrived... Cindery 09:41, 23 December 2006 (UTC) Tell you what, I'll drop the whole matter and just get back to editing if you'd drop your pompousness and sanctimony just apologize for the inappropriate and out-of-process block. Here's your chance to be civil. —Malber (talk • contribs) 17:10, 25 December 2006 (UTC) List_of_big-bust_models_and_performers on deletion reviewAn editor has asked for a deletion review of List_of_big-bust_models_and_performers.

Strange pageThanks for letting me know about it, Nick. SlimVirgin 23:08, 22 December 2006 (UTC) For the life of me...I cannot understand your deleting a link from the Derek Sherinian page for a YouTube video interview link. The intereview in question was SHOT for YouTube and identified as such at the head of the interview in front of all of the participants. Yet you deleted the link because of a COPYRIGHT question? We already went through this once, and you have repeated the same mistake. Furthermore, as even Jimmy Wales has publicly stated, the DMCA is the means to resolve YouTube type questions, not Misplaced Pages as an arbiter. And this is NOT even one of those issues, and it couldn't be more clear. The other link you deleted is covered under the DMCA, and the language you refer to I cannot find on WP:EL, although it may have been there at one point. Mr. Sherinian is very familiar his Misplaced Pages page, as is indicated on the Talk page, and has approved all of the outside links included. Reverted again. Tvccs 01:59, 23 December 2006 (UTC) Please stop. If you continue to remove content from pages, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Argyriou (talk) 02:19, 23 December 2006 (UTC) Please see my talkpage, beginning with "Nearly Headless Nick," and feel free to join in the user conduct RFC/Arbcom case which will be filed against him to desysop him and prevent him from engaging in the long course of unacceptable conduct regarding this issue. Cindery 09:36, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Restore talk page please?Hi, you recently deleted: Talk:List of proven conspiracies because of an AfD, could you please restore the talk page? thank you. have a merry christmas. Best wishes, Travb (talk) 02:59, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Stephanie Pui-Mun LawHi - could you explain why this article was deleted please? Was there some confusion with the irrelevant Tuba article talk, or is this a precursor to eliminating all artists in the fantasy field from Misplaced Pages? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Inkgod (talk • contribs).
Summary of your concerns - let's talk hereHi, I appreciate the discretion you used when you posted the first admin noticeboard discussion on my talk page. I just wanted to get a summary from you on your concerns. I would appreciate it if you could post them here as I would prefer to get your independent thoughts without the others chiming in. Thanks. Alan.ca 04:23, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Your opinion pleaseNick, would it be possible for you to review the article Hamilton, Ontario and make some suggestions from a quality perspective. I have near 60 edits into the article and could use an outside perspective. Alan.ca 10:05, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
I am not a pixieI am an IRC fairy, not an IRC pixie. There's a huge difference, and I don't appreciate you changing it on my userpage, especially not without talking to me. Please don't do this again. Kelly Martin (talk) 15:11, 23 December 2006 (UTC) Userpage SubpageYou may be interested in User:Argyriou/SirNicholas in case you have not seen it before. -- tariqabjotu 06:42, 24 December 2006 (UTC) Your block of User:Kuntan... stated: "Inappropriate username" and "Your username is an offensive slang in Malayalam". You offered no citation to support this claim. In fact, Kuntan is the name of a town in Malaysia (here's a citation). As to "sockpuppet" allegations based on checkuser results: are you aware how few IPs there are in many third-world regions, and how much IP-sharing occurs as a result? – SAJordan contribs 18:08, 24 Dec 2006 (UTC).
I don't care whatever definitions exist for the word "Kuntan", he created the account for trolling and hence the WP:USERNAME was absolutely inappropriate. You can check the contents of those particular categories and the later part of my talk page to see how he continues to disrupt Misplaced Pages by creating sockpuppets. Also, do not come up here after receiving requests from trolls. I know what I am doing. — Nearly Headless Nick 11:08, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

My Request for AdminshipSir Nicholas de Mimsy-PorpingtonThanks for your support on my successful Request for Adminship (final result 78 Support /0 Oppose / 1 Neutral) I have now been entrusted with the mop, bucket and keys.

Please do not hesitate to contact me. Once again, many thanks and happy new year! All the best, Asterion 13:29, 27 December 2006 (UTC) ConfusedHi. Thank you for your comments on my RfA. I was a bit confused by one of your comments. You state that "Also WP:BIO candidates are not speedy candidates." I'm not sure what you mean. Perhaps I misunderstand the A7 category.

The editor had added similar stuff to Christianity in India, but was reverted. The data presented in the tables do not match with the official India census records. We can't even access data from the World Christian Encyclopedia (2001) by David B. Barrett, et al. as its not in public domain.
