These two claims simply do not hold up against scrutiny, and I'm requesting that the article be replaced. There are far less notable and far more commercial articles on Wikipedia than this one. [[User:Hat72|J. Kevin Tumlinson]] ([[User talk:Hat72|talk]]) 22:03, 20 July 2009 (UTC) |

Revision as of 02:01, 21 July 2009
Whacking with a wet trout or trouting is a common practice on Wikipedia when experienced editors slip up and make a silly mistake. It, along with sentencing to the village stocks, is used to resolve one-off instances of seemingly silly behavior amongst normally constructive community members, as opposed to long term patterns of disruptive edits, which earn warnings and blocks.
Example
Hi, I have restored Tom Nash, which was turned into a semi-legitimate disambiguation page during the debate, and deleted the article the debate was actually about- Tom Nash (Home & Away character). My first trouting, so feel free to return fire if I've made a hash-up. J Milburn (talk) 13:03, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- Heh, oops. :) Thanks for cleaning up after me. –Juliancolton | Talk 15:05, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
It would apparently seem so - I've made the appropriate change. Cheers, FASTILY (TALK) 17:57, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anton incident
Re Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anton incident - I think it's a shame you closed as Keep rather than relisting - the main nomination argument (WP:NOTNEWS) was simply not addressed. Rd232 talk 18:45, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- The discussion was too long to justify relisting, as it seemed to me that consensus was clear. And indeed, several of the participants did explain why the topic is notable. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:48, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Disambiguation question
Hi again. Jean Hugo is a disambiguation page, but it only has two articles linked from it. Would it be appropriate to PROD it on the grounds that there are only two outgoing links from it? Dabomb87 (talk) 18:49, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yep, that would be fine. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:49, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
WP:NODRAMA reminder
Thanks for signing up for the Great Wikipedia Dramaout. Wikipedia stands to benefit from the improvements in the article space as a result of this campaign. This is a double reminder. First, the campaign begins on July 18, 2009 at 00:00 (UTC). Second, please remember to log any articles you have worked on during the campaign at Wikipedia:The Great Wikipedia Dramaout/Log. Thanks again for your participation! --Jayron32.talk.say no to drama 21:12, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Hello! A wikiproject was in the process of handling that content when the flood of AfDs occurred. Anyway, as most in the discussion did not seem opposed to a merge and as your close seemed okay with a redirect, could you kindly undelete the edit history and redirect to List_of_Home_and_Away_characters#B? As you can see at Talk:List_of_Home_and_Away_characters#Notable_characters_that_warrant_independent_articles this was one of the ones we were working on improving for the purpose of merging and such and we could really use the edit history for those purposes, while being okay with not overturning the redirect. Thanks! Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 21:17, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- Sure; Done. Cheers, –Juliancolton | Talk 21:19, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Move request

- Done –Juliancolton | Talk 21:52, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Armenia, first state to adopt Christianity
User Brutaldeluxe, apparently believes that the listed references are WP:OR or WP:UNDUE and are not enough evidence to prove Armenia was the first state to adopt Christianity. I'd rather you intervene than having this devolve into an edit war. Here are the list of a few of the references I provided[1]. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 02:19, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
The real Stuart Miles.
Hi JC, This user is still claiming to be the real Stuart Miles and changes his birthday. You left a message, User_talk:Stuartmiles what became of that and could we try to work this out, is he the real Miles or does he need to get a new Username? Regards. (Off2riorob (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2009 (UTC))
- Thanks, lets see if he is really the real...S Miles. (Off2riorob (talk) 21:29, 18 July 2009 (UTC))

- The bot didn't substitute the newsletters. I've substituted the ones today, but please fix it for later. Shubinator (talk) 17:16, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- Will do, thanks. –Juliancolton | Talk 17:17, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing this to the group's attention. I believe it is being unfairly targeted. Aliveatoms (talk) 21:18, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Admin
I have and in fact was nominated for it some time ago. In the end I decided to turn down the nomination. I simply don't have the time or interest in being an admin. Thanks for the suggestion and I am flattered, but still not interested. Dincher (talk) 21:34, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
My edit to Phil Defranco was and is correct. Why is there a need to have a page on him? It reads as a biography of an unimportant person. If this is the case then anyone can have a Wiki page.

thanks
I know this is getting rather redundant, but .. "Thank You" again .. ;) — Ched : ? 03:38, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- Glad to help. :) –Juliancolton | Talk 11:56, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
Please undelete this article. Discussion was in favor of keeping it. ⇔ ChristTrekker 06:39, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- Done; in the future, you may contest PRODs by simply removing the tag. –Juliancolton | Talk 11:56, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Julian,

Removal of PROD from Jeong Yim
Hello Juliancolton, this is an automated message from SDPatrolBot to inform you the PROD template you added to Jeong Yim has been removed. It was removed by Huo Xin with the following edit summary '(Removed dated prod and prod2. This page will be updated soon and will have reference sources.)'. Please consider discussing your concerns with Huo Xin before pursuing deletion further yourself. If you still think the article should be deleted after communicating with the 'dePRODer,' you may want to send the article to AfD for community discussion. Thank you, SDPatrolBot (talk) 17:29, 20 July 2009 (UTC) (Learn how to opt out of these messages)
Deletion of CompuTalk
I'm writing to protest the deletion of the CompuTalk article. The grounds cited were that it failed notability and was advertising the show's host and the show.
Notability - The show was a nationally syndicated talk radio program that had a head-to-head rivalry with Kim Kommando. It was cited and referenced numerous times online, and many of these sources were cited in the article. This was a part of radio history, and was an active part of several historically notable events. Finally, if other similar shows are notable (such as the Kim Kommando show), then so, too, is this one.
Advertising - The show has been off the air since 2000. This never was an advertisement for the show. And since I personally removed the segment regarding the host (the only portion that might be considered advertising at the time), there was nothing to advertise him, either.
These two claims simply do not hold up against scrutiny, and I'm requesting that the article be replaced. There are far less notable and far more commercial articles on Wikipedia than this one. J. Kevin Tumlinson (talk) 22:03, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

- Ouch! You've used a template to send a message to an experienced editor. Please review the essay Wikipedia:Don't template the regulars or maybe listen to a little advice. Doesn't this feel cold, impersonal, and canned? It's meant in good humour. Best wishes. ~~~~

- Welcome to Wikipedia. Although we invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, at least one of your recent edits was not in accordance with the wishes of the Cabal, and as soon as we figure out how to do so, it will be reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, or harsh realities of Wikipedia bias you'd like to expose, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

- I would welcome you to Wikipedia, but you have already barged your way in here uninvited. Furthermore, you have engaged in TROLLING and THOUGHTCRIMES as determined by the Cabal! Please stop now or I will cry to Jimbo and Lie to Arbcom in hopes of getting you banned like everyone else does. «l| Promethean ™|l» (talk) 01:50, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
- Please do not add hoaxes to Wikipedia. Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method is to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please don't disrupt Wikipedia in an attempt to test our ability to detect and remove such material. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia policy to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thank you. –Juliancolton | Talk 01:53, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
