KRS-One pic
Hey, have you requested/got answer for the KRS-One photo I showed? Woop-Woop That's the sound of da Police 10:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe you could've cropped out the left side of it without and puted that version just like the Lloyd Banks photo. Woop-Woop That's the sound of da Police 21:55, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- And btw, are you fan of soccer? Because I saw an edit you had to the player, Lincoln, found on ur archive.--Woop-Woop That's the sound of da Police 21:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

50 Cent discography - FAC candidate
I have nominated the 50 Cent discography as a feature article.

My RFA | ||
Thanks for participating in my request for adminship, which ended with 56 supports, one oppose, and one neutral. I hope to accomplish beyond what is expected of me and work to help those that lent me their trust. east.718 at 02:34, 11/4/2007 |
Wikipedia has a new administrator!
Thank you bunches!
Thank you so much for suppporting my RfA. I was promoted with a total of (44/1/0) - a vote of confidence from the community that I find humbling and motivating. I will not abuse your trust. Look forward to working with you! (Esprit15d 21:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC)) |
Tha Carter III cover
Definitely fake, MediaTakeOut is a joke lol. I ran it through Photoshop and you could easily see someone just rendered those areas a different color from the old original cover that was leaked. --Ayoleftyz 21:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
List of 50 Cent awards
I see from your RfA nom that you're knowledgeable in areas relating to 50 Cent. Some time ago, I revamped the List of 50 Cent awards page by converting all the info to tables, which you revamped one again here, which is much better than my version, BTW. I worked along Neranei (talk · contribs) to bring List of U2 awards to Featured List quality (the work was mostly from her part, of course). I think this one has a lot of potential. Would you be willing to address concerns if I nominated it to FL status (hypothetically, of course)? Happy editing! --Agüeybaná 22:05, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Excellent! Give me some time to write the nom, and I'll alert you when it's ready. --Agüeybaná 22:15, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- No, not at all. In fact, the ones who worked on the page are the ones technically responsible for addressing concerns. They're also allowed to support the nomination. --Agüeybaná 22:20, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- I've finished the article. I added sources and copy-edited it. I also supported the nom, as it has already been nominated to FLC status. Happy editing! --Agüeybaná 23:41, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- Why is "gold" redundant? As far as I know, gold is not the same as platinum :-) --Agüeybaná 23:50, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oops :-) --Agüeybaná 23:59, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Wallowing in my RfA: This time it's personal... | ||
My sincere thanks for your support in my request for adminship, which ended with 51 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutral. Doubtless it was an error to put one of the government-bred race of pigmen in any position of authority, but I hope your confidence in me proves justified. Even a man pure of heart and who says his prayers at night can become a were-boar when the moon is full and sweet. Fortunately, I'm neither a were-pig nor pure of heart so this doesn't appear to be an imminent danger to Wikipedia for the moment. Fortunate as well because were-pig hooves are hell on keyboards and none too dexterous with computer mice. If ever I should offend, act uncivil, misstep, overstep, annoy, violate policy, or attempt to topple the fascist leadership of Wikipedia, please let me know so I can improve my behaviour and/or my aim. I am not an animal; I am an admin. And, of course, if there is any way in which I can help you on Wikipedia, please do not hesitate to ask me. Despite my japes, I am indeed dedicated to protecting and serving Wikipedia to the best of my foppish and impudent abilities. I will strive to be an admirable admin, shiny and cool, reasonable and beatific. Pigmanwhat?/trail 05:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi Spellcast,
Just to let you know if you ever see any edits on Craig David's Wiki page from me they will always be genuine.
I do a lot official online work for Craig and his team so all of my edits will always be fine.
Edit: Update. Why do you keep removing the promotional image from Craig's page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by NickHSpurs (talk • contribs) 13:34, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

my rfa
Your RFA was successful
Congratulations, I have closed your RfA as successful and you are now a sysop! If you have any questions about adminship, feel free to ask me. Please consider messaging me on IRC for access to the #wikipedia-en-admins channel. Good luck! --Deskana (talk) 21:44, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Congratulations
Congrats for becoming an admin, you'll do a great job!--Tasc0 21:48, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Congratulations SpellCast, certainly well deserved. It was an absolute pleasure to nominate you and if you ever need anything, let me know and I'll do what I can. Ryan Postlethwaite 21:49, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
About your RfA
Congratulations on your successful request for adminship. I am glad you passed, and you are welcome for the support. For information on using your new tools, see the school for new admins; you will find it very useful. Good luck! Acalamari 22:52, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Plus, you're welcome for my comments on your RfA. :) Acalamari 22:52, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'll wear it with pride ;) Spellcast 22:54, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Congrats also, although you'll have to brush up on the cut & paste a little bit ;-() --Rodhullandemu (talk - contribs) 23:17, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- You're right, it's just that this wide scale spamming is new to me :) Spellcast 23:19, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Congratulations. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 23:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Congrats! Well-deserved. Lara❤Love 23:55, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Congrats, not the first and hopefully not the last. I have pinned the globe on your user page, another admin pinned me so now I pass it along. :-) Carlossuarez46 01:33, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, congratulations, Mr. Spellcast! You'll be a good administrator for sure. Daniil Maslyuk 02:15, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
- My pleasure, and thank you for your ability to follow simple instructions - you would be surprised how many admins are incapable of doing so! Good luck, and I'm usually around if you ever have any questions or concerns. Best, Neil ☎ 09:41, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
- You're very welcome and I'm glad to hear of your success. Feel free to ask for help, as admins can still get stuck! It's no problem. Best wishes, Lradrama 11:13, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
Congratulations, and I'm glad you like the T-shirt (didn't know other people had it, hehe)... oh, and for the record, I like hip hop :D Extraordinary Machine 18:53, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

You just decimated the article, from your summary I suspect it was a mistake. i reverted, you need to do your edit again. Thanks, SqueakBox 02:35, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
- That was a particularly yuck story, glad your edit happened as we do not want someone like that seen as notable enough for our pages. Good edit. Thanks, SqueakBox 02:49, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
- Agh! I missed the chance to vote on your Rfa. Let me congratulate you! Thanks, SqueakBox 03:07, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
Craig David
I see your point on the trivia section, and although I don't entirely agree, I completely see where you are coming from. I think trivia makes an artist more "human" and gives bits of information that a reader may find interesting, that they may otherwise never get to read about. Thanks for being POLITE! Skyler Morgan 01:10, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Actually I DO HAVE a few questions that would be useful to know the answer to.
1. How do you cite sources per Wikipedia standards?
2. How do you insert the little "Citation Needed" notation in articles?
3. What is the procedure for requesting additional help on an article?
THANK YOU!
Skyler Morgan 01:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Ouch, yes! Charts-cruft, Fancruft, Listcruft, you name it. This needs to go ASAP - all this separation of countries, etc - reeks of POV as well. There is no reason to go beyond what her regular discography already has... aside from the fact that it sets a horrible precedent - imagine one of these pages for all the pop/R&B divas? Yikes! Speedy-delete or WP:AfD it or somethin'! - eo 01:32, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
- I may as well, I just responded on its talk page anyway. - eo 01:39, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
- Done. - eo 01:48, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Ahem
Aren't you an admin now? [1] KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 09:43, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Steve. Yeah I am, but I'm still a bit new to this. I'm really tempted to do a 6 month block since it's a school. But at the risk of doing an overly-long block, I'm letting someone else do it ;) Spellcast (talk) 09:48, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ahem, be BOLD. :P Besides 99% of actions you do as an admin are reversible so no real harm. You should look at my block log lol. Although when I first got my tools I was hesitant to enforce long term blocks too. If I may suggest, this is my opinion(s) on the matter. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 09:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Avoiding redirects
Re: this edit:
Fair enough - I wasn't aware of that guideline. However, my personal view is that I don't like seeing unnecessary links to redirects - it smacks of carelessness as though the editor hasn't checked the link (though I'm occasionally guily of this myself.) In this situation, I don't see that Napolean will be developed into a separate article, except as possible a future disambiguation page in which case any links will need to be updated anyway. However I'm not going bothered enough to get into a revert war about it ;-) – Tivedshambo (talk) 12:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey there, you said i vandalize something. Can you please tell me what did i do? I sear to god i didn't do anything wrong. Thanks =). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.191.91.213 (talk) 16:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
That's funny...
Either my IP is a shared IP, or Wikipedia hiccuped. I went to Wikipedia, and found myself linked to this(through a message informing me I had a new message). I know it wasn't me, but it's still kinda funny--Vercalos (talk) 05:45, 20 November 2007
- Ok just admit it...you were the IP that blanked the page :P But seriously though, I never thought someone would contact me for an edit I made in April this year. I guess no edit in Wikipedia goes unseen! Spellcast (talk) 06:28, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Heh. I didn't even notice the date. Strange that I didn't receive any notification of a message until the 20th of this month. Maybe my IP address changed?--Vercalos (talk) 06:49, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
Your RC cleanup
Hey Excirial, I see you a lot at RC patrol. You're definitely one of the finest vandal fighters I've come across. I'd give you a barnstar but it's too clichéd. So I'm just letting you know that every revert and report is really appreciated. I'm sure you will be a great asset with the tools one day. Cheers! Spellcast (talk) 09:01, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- And all your aiv reports have been great, I see an admin in the making! --Chris 09:04, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- (Becomes tomato red) Not so fast people, i didn't even recover from blushing from the previous compliment! Well, what can i say? I think: "Thanks a lot for the compliments, and glad to help!" Will fit in here just fine! I love doing this vandalism patrol, and perhaps i will issue an RFA someday. Not yet, since my account has been only 1 month old (Even though i have been around since March 2006 on IP level, but not exactly active). Perhaps some time in the future, when i have encountered more of the wikipedia guidelines. Im still quite green on those, and i want to make sure i know them more thoroughly before i request adminship :) --Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 09:10, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Maleflixxx Television
I noticed that you deleted the article, Maleflixxx Television and I would like to know why you did this. Yes, I understand that this article was deleted before and was created again, but what you may or may not know is that there was never a discussion whatsoever done on this article for it to be deleted in the first place. It was deleted completely out of the blue with no discussion done on it before hand and this is completely unfair. This is a completely ligitamit and notable article that was deleted for no reason because I'm sure some user out there has a personal problem with the context of the article which is no reason for it to be deleted. I suggest the article be created again and if someone objects then a discussion for deletion be done on it, but no way should it just be deleted out of the blue like that again. MusiMax (talk) 16:48, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
And adding to that, the new article did give references to why it was notable as well. So the argument that no references and it being not notable was mute with the new article because it did have both. MusiMax (talk) 17:20, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- Just because Channel Zero Inc. was deleted, that doesn't mean that everything associated with it be deleted as well. That discussion was for Channel Zero Inc., not for any of the other articles. Channel Zero was deleted but you leave the other ones alone unless a discussion is made for that specific article. All of these articles need to be put back. This is absolutely ridiculous. MusiMax (talk) 15:51, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
Message
Hi the reason why I deleted it is simply because it is not true, there is no evidence at all that any money was stolen and the user (Lanifex) is trying to find conspiracy when no conspiracy is present, I can give you more details if you want to email me at tom.stubbs@nus.org.uk I am fed up with the mis information that he's giving out. I witnessed the accounts, I know whats going on!
Inapropriate content
Hello! You recently deleted an article titled How to hack school website security blocks. The same user who created that article also created a very similar article titled The ratton password. He is editing these articles under his unregistered IP (86.141.230.124 (talk · contribs)) as well as his username Mattj5095 (talk · contribs). I placed a speedy delete tag on both articles but the second one isn't deleted yet. I also placed a warning on both talk pages of the user. I don't know if he deserves a short "cooling down" block or just a stern warning for recreating deleted material but he might turn out to be a nuissance. SWik78 (talk) 18:59, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

stop and desist notices
So I'm browsing an other topic & page says I've got a message (?) You were a contributor, said stop messing with the satan page, but really have no idea what you mean or if I will have this IP address again ever. (the complaint was directed to 81.129.117.15. It's probably not worth chasing every non-account IP address, I'm surprised that non-account holders can make changes to be honest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.129.117.15 (talk) 14:41, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
- It was probably someone else because it's a shared IP. And yes, IPs can also edit. The ability of anyone to edit without registering is a foundation issue. Although I wish it was different sometimes. Spellcast (talk) 16:53, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
blogspot
No, looks like a variety of "subdomains" are listed on the blacklist here, I just archived it as it was over a week old and the page was in desperate need of getting under control. Dirk is now monitoring it I think. In practice it doesn't look like anyone actually listed anything - I think the whole domain would have people screaming! If you want me to list the ones you flagged...
/thinks - yes, do you want me to bring it back and list those you mentioned - I guess we got sidetracked on to the general point and away from the specific? Let me know - cheers --Herby talk thyme 16:07, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
- I have no problem listing counting-crows.blogspot.com based on that evidence - as you say it really was spammed quite a bit and that is what the list is for. It is a hard balance between putting in sites that really are quite infrequent link placers and those that are so obviously a nuisance anyone would do it.
- Let me know, the crows one happily, the others if you feel strongly - your call, cheers --Herby talk thyme 16:20, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
- No problem, again if you see something up & coming it can always be listed for a month say till the fuss is over, saves tedious reversions. You know where I am - cheers --Herby talk thyme 16:33, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Re: IP hopper
Yeah; that would make sense. Or perhaps an abuse report? Either way, something has to be done, and I should have done it earlier — this one vandal has been disrupting articles for months. Extraordinary Machine (talk) 22:31, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Regarding international charts in discography
WP policy states AfD is only conclusive as to whether or not the subject article should be deleted or kept. Per the guidelines, merge is only a recommendation, not a mandate. Actual realization of a merge, if recommended, is still discretionary.
"An AFD decision is either to 'keep' or 'delete' the article. AFD discussions which fail to reach rough consensus default to 'keep'. The AFD decision may also include a strong recommendation for an additional action such as a 'merge' or 'redirect'." --WP:GD
Note that the recommendation for additional action is optional, and constitutes no more than a "strong recommendation".
To put it precisely, you characterized it as "Result of AfD was delete, not merge." But actually, the result of the AfD was delete, not keep. The decision does not preclude merging some content.
Even a recommendation to merge is itself a recommendation to delete. But a consensus for deletion is not a recommendation not to merge.
Adding content to another article from a previously deleted atricle is consistent with policy. AfD deletion is not a lifetime ban of any and all of the content of the article. Am I wrong about the policy? Thanks for discussing. Bsherr (talk) 06:43, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
- If you'd actually like to discuss content, is there a specific reason you oppose international charts in articles? I think you mentioned that it is because they comprise less than 1% of CD sales. If so, I'd be happy to provide information showing that the top five countries account for only a little over half of album sales. Other markets are more substantial than you give credit. Hope we can come to an arrangement. Bsherr (talk) 07:03, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
Requesting your expertise and Commons account
Hello, the image of the WP:HH got deleted from Commons. This image was being used in the userbox and project template.
Here it is the diff.
Another user added another image of breakdancing, but I think it was more appropriate the image that got deleted. Check it if you can do something about it. Reply here, thank you.--Tasc0 23:35, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
- I've brought up the issue at the Commons help desk. Hopefully this can be sorted out. I'll keep you posted. Spellcast (talk) 07:59, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism intervention request
Hi Spellcast, It's been the first time I have made a vandalism intervention request and I'm not very sure It worked out...the vandal remains unblocked and the article remains undeleted. Did I do something wrong? Thank you. --Varano (talk) 22:37, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- Cuold you please tell me were I should denounce such situations in the future? And besides that I belive Spanish Courts for Violence against Women should be definitively deleted for the same reasons that caused all this mess. Thanks. --Varano (talk) 22:49, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, I tried that procedure you linked me to, but obviously I did something wrong. I find it a pretty difficult deletion mechanism...or maybe it's just that I'm no used to it. Please check what needs to be fixed. Thanks. --Varano (talk) 23:15, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- You missed transcluding the page onto the daily log, which was the only major mistake. I took care of that. I took care of one other glitch also. And I left one thing that could be improved, but really doesn't matter. GRBerry 23:18, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

relisting AFDs
Hi, when you relist an AFD, like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hedrick Cooperative, you need to remove it from the old AFD day log, otherwise it will still show up as being unclosed for that day. I've gone ahead and fixed this one. --W.marsh 01:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
- Will do. I'll be sure to remove it from the old log. Thanks for pointing that out. Spellcast (talk) 01:42, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Eton College vandal
I notice that 195.195.166.31 has done it again - however, the address is assigned to Eton, and, who knows, Will Hillgarth may be a real person, even though apparently not notable enough to show up on Google... I have reverted him. Any suggestions? Jpaulm (talk) 02:24, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Can you send me the last version of it. I will improve it off wiki and then resubmit the article after it is properly sourced.--Vintagekits (talk) 14:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. Was is completly devoid of references?--Vintagekits (talk) 14:56, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Blacklist
Thanks for the additions to the blacklist - can I ask that you to ensure that you log these entries please. Moving 6 or twelve months down the line any admin coming across a request for removal may be left with no choice if the rationale for the block is unavailable. I know this only to well from experience on Meta. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 21:28, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
- No problem & I'll support your actions. However I am faced with removing one at Meta because I cannot find out "why" it was blacklisted. Is all, is late :) Music works generally (currently playing Songs_For_The_Road :)) Cheers --Herby talk thyme 21:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey, just noticed that you re-moved the article back to its lowercase "like" name. Can I ask which naming conventions you're referring to? GlassCobra 00:15, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- All official materials refer to the title of the song as "Like" with a capital L, including the picture right on the page, which is the cover of the single. Like User:Esprit15d, I would instead propose that we title the page per the name of the song. GlassCobra 01:54, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- As far as I know, "like" is not one of the ones that is applicable under this rule. See Smells Like Teen Spirit, Head Like a Hole, Smells Like Nirvana, Whatever U Like, Rock You Like a Hurricane, etc. GlassCobra 04:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'm finding it a little hard to believe that a word not explicitly included in the MoS would trump blatantly obvious precedent set by all the other articles I listed. Perhaps we could get an RFC about this? GlassCobra 04:56, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

The article that you deleted had passed the deletion review under question of notability. Even the original deleting admin said that it was not a question of notability but one of sourcing and referencing, which the review agreed on. As stated by one of the current comments by admin Keeper | 76 that the article needed ISBN# and sourcing for it to be accepted. Once that comment was posted i did exactly that. The article is now fully referenced with secondary sources and ISBN numbers are provided as well as links to other wiki sites and categories. There have been 4 editors of the article in its one week on air. Therefore the problems of the admins proposing deletion have been rectified by both editing and the original deletion review decision. To uphold this deletion is double jeopardy! please restore the article, if there are other specific issues i will rectify them as i have made clear through my actions that i am willing to adapt the article to comply with wiki laws. --Birri85 (talk) 01:22, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for your balanced decision. I'll work with others to keep improving the article and welcome any input. --Birri85 (talk) 03:53, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Re: Range block
There's more? That's like a /11, which isn't even possible to rangeblock because of its size. I'm going to harass some checkusers and get them to act on that one quickly. east.718 at 03:38, November 29, 2007
- When you get some time can you please shunt me a list of URLs that this guy is spamming, I'm not familiar with all his accounts. east.718 at 17:34, November 29, 2007
Ahem
User talk:Spoilcast. I think blacklisting the URLs is in order if you've not done so already.--Isotope23 talk 17:39, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- This headline will work just fine—as it is something I would have said anyway. I've replied on my talk page. Cheers. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 21:57, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
