I will remove any "wikilove" or other useless "joke" templates.
Please do not add such nonsense to this page.

RantMedia to stay in Wikipedia

As you were previously involved in AfD discussions regarding RantMedia and Sean Kennedy (Author), I respectfully request your attendance to the current Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/RantMedia. I believe there have been MANY productive responses to concerns on past AfD's, but some still don't seem to agree. If there is any way you can think of improving the article, or contributing to the current AfD, I would appreciate it. Thank you very much for your time. ₪— CelticWonder (T·C) 16:53, 16 June 2009 (UTC) "[reply]

IP indef

Thanks for noticing that. Apparently, I did two indef blocks in a row on named accounts and accidentally did the IP too. Dreadstar † 23:56, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The IP has returned

I started a new page and now the IP has vandalized an entire section by deleting it without discussion or consensus. Before this continues I suggest the IP is warned. QuackGuru (talk) 18:37, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nakon, please take a look at this article, and the previous articles it was derived from:

You will see many think of this article as a POV fork, and for the most part created, edited, and "protected" by the same people BullRangifer & Verbal [1] & QuackGuru [2], who put this on their user page:

{{Singh}} (template was deleted today I assume in response to Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#WP:SOAP )

It is one thing to state an opinion on a user page, quite another to use Wikipedia to solicit votes for a political cause.

Because of the POV of the article, it invites "revision". I put in one sentence which was derived from the introductory sentence of a source that is used throughout the article, but because this particular sentence puts a perspective to D.Palmer's philosophy that I guess they don't want in the article, this part of D.Palmer's philosophy was not mentioned at all in the article. When I tried to add it, it was reverted by QuackGuru and Verbal for no valid reason.

In addition to this, this group has a favorite tactic of accusing anyone who doesn't share their point of view as being sockpuppets: [3] [4]

Mogulus page?

I found a link on the web to a company called Mogulus. Didn't find the page on Wikipedia but it appears that Mogulus has become Livestream. Tried to make a redirect page, but Mogulus has been deleted and locked. Couldn't Mogulus be a redirect to Livestream? -- Dougher (talk) 22:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

on the slim chance it matters

I received a somewhat odious but otherwise irrelevant e-mail from this user. Digging a bit I found this. I'm letting you know in case there's some technical problem with an "e-mail blocked" user sending mail via WP. If this info is not useful please forgive the intrusion. Regards Tiderolls 23:43, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thank you for your support at my RfA Nakon. I'll do my best to never be the subject of any "issues" as well. I appreciate the trust, and I'll do my best to never abuse that trust. Cheers — Ched : ? 03:21, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request for Copy of Talk Page

Doug Texter here.

You deleted a page about me. That's fine. There was some serious vandalism happening. May I get a copy of the talk page for the site for legal reasons.

Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.17.193.210 (talk) 04:57, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me

Excuse me, but why did you delete the article about Brad Sommer? It was a legitimate article by Wikipedia standards. Skoalman666 (talk) 03:12, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please see our verifiability policy and notability policy. The article did not provide any sources nor make an assertion of notability. Nakon 03:16, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've read that over 9,000 times and this article qualified by those standards. If you need proof check out CWA on Facebook. It is a real group and Brad Sommer was in that group. Ask anyone in the entire city of Dayton who either CWA or Brad Sommer is and they'll tell you everything in this article. Skoalman666 (talk) 03:23, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No response? Skoalman666 (talk) 03:54, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article needs sources that have been published, not "John says Bob is qualified" or fan pages on Facebook. Nakon 03:57, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What's the difference between "John says Bob is qualified" and "Dr. Dre says Bob is qualified"? I don't get the double standard. Now you are starting to make stuff up. I am not breaking any of the Wiki laws attempting to bring upstanding African American citizens like myself down. Skoalman666 (talk) 04:25, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Hi, The article about rapper Brad Sommer had some major inaccuracies, however it shouldn't be deleted. Go to any hip hop video database and you will find some videos of CWA's mixtapes, like "Korn off the Kobb", ect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Suedey (talk • contribs) 03:27, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I will return! -Betax —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.56.61.193 (talk) 17:24, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are welcome to return as long as you contribute to the encyclopedia and not just mess around in your userspace. Nakon 17:52, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmation

As I sent the email regarding my request for the rollback privilege late at night for myself, and have not received any indication that you have received the email, I'm starting to get a little worried that I didn't actually send it. Even if you're currently too busy to deal with it, I'd appreciate a confirmation that you received my email.

Thanks.

RandomStringOfCharacters (talk) 01:54, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I fulfilled the request when I received the email. [5] . Nakon 02:16, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback request 7/01

Ahh, I see your point. I misunderstood Wikipedia:Don't restore removed comments to mean that block notices shouldn't be removed until the block expires. -- King ♣ Talk 13:51, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:VampirePH deletion

Hi,

You deleted this as a temporary user page. However, it's a talk page - I thought user talk wasn't deleted? Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 11:10, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The user talk page is included in the category. Nakon 13:25, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

May I take it that this account was being used solely for vandalism, then? I found it odd to have pages I've commented on show up as red on my watchlist without much in the way of explanation. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 14:41, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the account was blocked indefinitely in May. Only pages of users that have been blocked indefinitely are being deleted. Nakon 17:47, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cool. Cheers for the explanation. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 19:20, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User:Nakon/cascade2

It appears that the cascading protection on the above page is causing protection on the documentation pages. See Template talk:Convert#One works but the other don't.. I had changed the protection level to semi on the documentation pages but as I wasn't unsure what else was on cascade2 I didn't want to touch it. Cheers. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 12:55, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added every subtemplate of Convert to the cascade-protected page. If there are templates that are affected by the cascade protection, please feel free to remove them from the list, or if a majority of the templates included on the cascade page are being incorrectly protected, feel free to delete the page. Nakon 13:30, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I've changed it to semi for a while. I'll let someone from the convert group remove the documentation pages and then change it back again. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 07:30, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of User talk:Larbkai

Hi. I was recently in a discussion (1, 2) with User:Daniel Case about how indefinite blocking of User:Larbkai may not have been warranted. Larbkai is now editing as User:Megazawa07, and although Daniel Case suggested to just let him edit under the new name for now, I'd like to have the old user talk page preserved for reference. Could you restore the page please? --Paul_012 ^(talk) 10:32, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please be sure to remove the page from the "Temporary Wikipedian Userpages" category. Nakon 17:47, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Advice needed

Per User talk:Vianello#As for some advices (permalink), an admin from the Vietnamese Wikipedia could use some advice about dealing with page-move vandals. Since the admin that was asked doesn't know what to do to combat this vandalism, I've contacted you to see if you can give him some advice. If you can help, please reply at User talk:Vinhtantran#Re: Mass vandalism (to keep discussion centralized since I've posted this message at the talk pages of several admins). Thanks, Cunard (talk) 00:34, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nakon,
please send your real-name, your wikiname, your Freenode-nick (if you have one), your prefered login-name and the public part of your ssh-key to . We plan to create your account soon then. --DaB. 15:24, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

pre-emptive protection

Please remove the protection from Template:Infobox3cols and Template:Infobox Football biography 2. These templates are still experimental and not widely deployed, and I need to tweak them constantly; having to repeatedly request editprotected for them will be a huge pain. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 11:29, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please use an article's talk page before removing material.

If you had, you might have discovered that I live significantly closer to Bloomington-Normal, Illinois (as I live in Champaign, Illinois) whereas you live somewhere else entirely. Thus, chances are good that I have a little more in the way of knowledge about the area than you do. I know your efforts were well-intentioned, nevertheless, your zeal to remove information is contrary to Wikipedia's principle of being bold. In the future, please do the following before removing material: (1) do a quick "back-of-the-envelope" evaluation of the plausibility of the added information (is it patently ridiculous? does it seem legitimate? is there a motive to add false information of the type added? what is my own acquaintance with the subject-matter) and (2) if the previous questions lead you to the conclusion that the information is not apparent vandalism and that you are not familiar with the subject of the article (conclusions, I hasten to add, that you should have reached here), please share your misgivings on the article's discussion page before unilaterally reverting an article.

I will revert your deletion of my edits to the article. If you have misgivings, please, as directed above, voice them on the discussion page. Please keep in mind the rules prohibiting edit wars and please allow yourself to be guided by the principle that Wikipedia is not a clique and readers are invited to be bold in improving articles. While I have taken your actions as a good-faith, but misguided, attempt to police Wikipedia, I will report future vigilantism to Wikipedia administrators.
