Spamming of Edirne
Hello, Awiseman ... FYI, I believe that there is only one spammer, but their IP changes each time they connect to the 'Net ... this is typical of a dial-up connection ... I have a DSL connection, but my IP changes every time there is a power interruption ... Happy Editing! —72.75.79.128 (talk · contribs) 02:27, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, I bet that's it. Thanks! --AW (talk) 16:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Coincidently, mine just changed again. :-) —141.156.234.101 (talk) 18:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Hekko, Awiseman ... The admin who closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kiel McNaughton neglected to delete Dominic Ona-Ariki (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) which was included in the AfD shortly after it was opened ... I pinged them, but there has been no response ... would you please address this little bit of housekeeping? ... Happy Editing! —141.156.234.101 (talk · contribs) 15:58, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hi there. He sort of seems notable to me though, an actor on a soap opera would pass the test, right? --AW (talk) 16:07, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
- Not really ... he's a minor character who has been on on Shortland Street for less than a year (IMDb says only 15 episodes so far) ... there is no Reliable source Attribution to satisfy WP:BIO. —141.156.234.101 (talk) 16:27, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Ego Pharmaceuticals
- Thanks for looking at Ego Pharmaceuticals. I appreciate the notability tag question but I think at least as important as the odd pokemon card and meets the notability criteria - it is covered in secondary sources as one might expect of a 50 year old company that is the market leader in producing creams and lotions providing dermatological relief eg Australian Broadcasting Corporation , plus grants and awards at state and federal government level. Founder recognised in Bright Sparcs biographical entry ... agree it is marginal in some ways and I wouldn't have started the entry but I wouldn't advocate deletion either. I think it is important to have conflict of interest issues looked at by extra people and I appreciate that you answered the notel eft at the COI noticeboard Regards Matilda talk 20:52, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Hello, again ... I tagged Jack Faoni (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for speedy deletion as a WP:COPYVIO of [1] … the {{db-copyvio}}
was removed by the author (Simonflotrope (talk · contribs)) without comment … it's just a copy&paste of their website about the subject, with no WP:RS to provide WP:V for satisfying WP:BIO … would you please intervene? Thnx! —141.156.234.101 (talk · contribs) 23:01, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Hello ... can you say, WP:CRYSTAL? Also, Tamsyn Armstrong seems rather dubious as to WP:FICT notability ... Happy Editing! —141.156.234.101 (talk · contribs) 14:25, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

The part about the founder is true, I wrote it and I work for the team. The part about the neighborhood being Tel-Aviv's most notorious slum could have been true in the past, probably isn't true now. A matter of opinion actually. I didn't write that part but didn't want to delete it either. Thinking of it again, I think it should be deleted. # Ido50 (talk to me), at 19:01, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Carter County
In researching the War of Regulation / Battle of Alamance, I've trekked into and through the Fort Watauga article that you wrote. You link to Carter County, Tennessee on that page. Something doesn't make sense to me on the Carter County page; the early history section is written such as to make Tennessee a part of the Province of North Carolina continously...
As part of North Carolina counties
* Clarendum; * New Hanover Precinct (1729-1734); * Bladen County (1734-1749) - current county seat is Elizabethtown, North Carolina); * Anson County (1749-1753); * Rowan County (1753-1777); * Burke County (1777).
...but that doesn't make sense with the first sentence of the next section;
"Carter County was the first permanent settlement outside the original 13 American colonies."
It can't be in North Carolina but outside the colony of North Carolina can it? Doesn't the Proclamation of 1763 come into play? Looking for clarity...Berean Hunter (talk) 03:26, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Possible edit warring on project article
There seems to be some issues going on over on the article : Military history of African Americans, in particularly in the section Military history of African Americans#Confederate States Army. Could you take a look at the article's edit history as well as the discussion, Talk:Military history of African Americans, and possibly give some input? Thanks.

Spoiler template
Hi Awiseman, I saw your comments at User talk:Xoloz. Unfortunately, Xoloz is currently retired from Wikipedia and might not be able to answer your questions for awhile (although I hope I'm wrong). Although I did not participate, I remember the debates fairly well. I think your question concerned Xoloz's comment here: Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 November 14. At the time, {{Current fiction}} had been proposed as a limited alternative to {{spoiler}}, and I believe that's what Xoloz was referring to. The current fiction template, however, was also deleted in a later discussion: Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2007 December 15#Template:Current fiction. --JayHenry (talk) 07:00, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'm still disappointed the spoiler template was deleted. Seems like a useful thing. --AW (talk) 14:58, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Please, please don't undelete deletions under WP:BLP, ever - it's forbidden because of a principle in a recent arbitration case. Next time, it's likely that Arbcom will have your +sysop bit forcibly taken from you. east.718 at 22:56, February 1, 2008
- Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2008 January 15. Please, don't ever do that again. Daniel (talk) 01:17, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
- I have also deleted your sandbox replica — see the deletion summaries, Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Non-article space, Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2008 January 15, this ruling, and GFDL (albeit a secondary factor) all combined mean that this article cannot exist in any form in any namespace without a consensus to do so. Daniel (talk) 01:22, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
Greetings, Thankyou for creating the article. As the original author of the Corey Delaney. I watched as it went through the AFD, the Deletion Review, and then the Misc for Deletion with anoyance because alot of the "delete" votes were obviously WP:IDONTLIKEIT. News.com.au even wrote an article about the deletion!. I have !voted to overturn the deletion and I wish you the best of luck. I look foward to improving the article with you. Just incase I don't see the result, of the deletion review, can you please let me know how it goes on my talk page? Fosnez (talk) 11:45, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Re. Wikinews, wikinews:Wikinews:Writing an article seems like a decent place to start, but User:David Shankbone would have a much better idea about how to go about this. At the moment the only Wikinews reporting is on the party. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:33, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Lacrosse
I noticed that you added a cleanup tag to the lacrosse page. Can you expand, perhaps on the talk page, exactly what needs to be cleaned up? I'm not saying the page is perfect, but there aren't any glaring problems that I see. Thanks --MrBoo (talk, contribs) 22:46, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
