Are you here because I deleted/reverted something you had contributed? Read me first, please!

More than likely, the reason you're here is because I deleted something you had contributed. Before writing here, why not see if you can answer your question yourself?

Are you here to ask me to perform an administrative action (a block, page protection, deletion, etc.)? Read me first, please!

Classic Car problems - running-on

Thank you, Kinu. Re: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:TapkaJohnD You rejected my article because Wiki is "an encylopedic reference, not an instruction manual, guidebook, or textbook." I've read the page that links to, and see the first and most relevant item on it, which includes the sentence, "Describing to the reader how other people or things use something is encyclopedic; instructing the reader in the imperative mood about how to use something is not." I submit that my article is precisely the first, a collection of ways that other people have dealt with this problem. It is emphaticly not an instruction manual, but a discussion of possible causes and solutions that other people have used. Thus it should be within the "encyclopedic reference" heading, but may need rewriting to bring it into Wiki-style. I know this is an open question, but is it possible to rewrite the article into acceptability by going into the causes in more detail? I note the item on FAQs, to which my article may be compared, and which suggests the author "format the information provided as neutral prose within the appropriate article" that might do the same thing. Or is classic car maintenance just beyond the Pale? best wishes John TapkaJohnD (talk) 10:18, 6 April 2013 (UTC) |

Hi Kinu, being an admin on Commons I'm contacting you, as you IMO correctly blocked image-vandal User:Iphone1998, after it was refused to me on COM:AIV[6]. I would ask you to consider blocking Vernmildew (talk · contribs) who has 4 times added unrelated images into 3 :en articles [7]. Thanks to the WMF-invented, but not thought-through mobile web/app upload facility, the number of dangerous image vandals, who insert images of identifiable people into :en articles in order to slander them, is currently increasing. --Túrelio (talk) 08:26, 7 April 2013 (UTC) |

Rude editor

Just wondering if there's anywhere we could file a report about a rude editor? User: Politsi has always been rude to new people, i.e. the ones who haven't edited this particular article, for example here. That is not the first incident of him acting aggressive and insult other editors (see the rest of that talk page and the archives if you want to see for yourself) and I'm certain won't be the last time either. That thread, and especially the latest homophobic comment was the last straw I think he should get at least a warning.--Krystaleen 12:27, 18 April 2013 (UTC) |

The entry for HAMS was deleted on 14 May 2008. The deleting editor is assigned as your user ID, and that is why I am contacting you. The entry was self-promoting and the group has since written a new article, on PsychologyWiki, that is based solely on information and not in anyway promoting of the group, its ideas, or anything else associated with it[1]. HAMS would like to get an article back onto Wikipedia, using this entry as a template. What would have to be done for the block to be removed?

Hi Kinu, I reverted your redirect of this page to the user page. The editor may not have seen the notice of how to appeal when TPA is revoked, + it makes it harder for other admins to see the history of this farrago. It's true that he was fairly insulting (to me too!), but I don't think such drastic action is required. Sometimes simply leaving stuff like and letting it speak for itself, is far more damning than hiding it. It speaks volumes, in fact. If you feel really strongly about it, though, I'd suggest archiving everything but the last two block notices, rather than simply removing everything. Voceditenore (talk) 08:05, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

For Administrator

Administrator, you just told me that my feelings of harassment are unfounded. Please see these comments below that were written on an AFD page for Rocket Records a short while ago during the middle of a productive discussion I was having with another editor. Here were the comments that came out of nowhere by this editor: Per nomination and PeterWesco. Most importantly, an article was previously created by a bunch of socks (see Talk:The Rocket Record Company collapsed section). They were all blocked and about a month later the Zachtron account was created and their only purpose appears to be to recreate this non-notable, self-promotional article.--I am One of Many (talk) 07:17, 2 May 2013 (UTC) I don't know if you can be objective or not because you seem to have had some recent interactions with this editor judging by his history, but it is not right to be accused by this editor on a public AFD page. That is not criticizing my contributions, that is a personal attack. I can't do anything about it because I'm not an administrator like you, but it's simply not right. It is stuff like this that makes honest editors leave Wikipedia all together. I even agreed with consensus deletion of articles (you proposed AfD for Diverse and Ryan Prescott) that I personally contributed because I respect the community's opinion, but I'm pretty much done with this. First PeterWesco and now this I am One of Many individual attacking me (not my work) personally with harmful accusations because he had a problem with the article eons ago which had nothing at all to do with me. I'm over it Administrator, and Rybec or somebody else can work on Rocket Records (which should not be deleted/vandalized) and other similar articles for a while. Anyway, I appreciate your reliable reference tips the other day on my Talk page. Regards. Zachtron (talk) 10:38, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
Administrator Kinu (not a diatribe, rather your opinion(s) asked for), I am going to be making an official proposal to the community at-large for WikiProject Music regarding community updated WP:MUSIC guidelines (including WP:GNG and WP:CORP guidelines specifically for music) for the project and its sub projects, which includes the subject of record labels under WikiProject Record Labels. The Wikipedia community at-large recently updated WP:GNG guidelines for the specific music category of producers, composers, and songwriters, yet no WP:MUSIC update (although it was discussed by the community at-large) was followed through upon as it directly relates to record labels. The article for Rocket Records is an interesting test case, because it is an RIAA certified record label in the United States with some highly notable commercial music releases (Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, etc.) , yet "online press coverage" for it (as well as for 95% of all record labels, both Majors and Indies) is difficult to come by the majority of the time. The Wikipedia article for Horizon Records (this is just one example of hundreds) has the same issue, being an RIAA certified record label with highly notable commercial music releases, yet limited online press coverage. Obviously WP:GNG and WP:CORP are indeed never inherited, but record labels are a very unique subject matter, and their direct attachment to the notable music industry accomplishments of their key individuals/entities (artists, producers, songwriters, etc.) is an extremely important part of what makes them notable, even though the record labels themselves rarely receive significant coverage, both online or in print media. This even goes for some of the world's largest record labels. For WikiProject Record Labels, a good majority of project members currently feel that RIAA certification (which is THE top standard for record labels) with notable WP:MUSIC accomplishment guidelines similar to the new ones for music producers, composers, and songwriters would indeed be appropriate for record labels as it relates to their inclusion in Wikipedia. Record labels, though "companies", fall much more in line with music artists, producers, songwriters, and composers as opposed to "everyday" companies subject to common WP:CORP guidelines. Would you personally object to the "Stubbing" or "Starter" classification of Rocket Records, Horizon Records, and some other notable (precise WP:GNG record label guidelines TBD) record label articles like them that can be included or deleted dependent upon newly proposed WP:MUSIC guidelines for record labels, as opposed to just fully deleting them right now (which is detrimental to WikiProject Record Labels) before those new guidelines are set? We are trying to complete the project as best as possible for the general community of Wikipedia readers, so that is why I am asking you these specific questions.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:ShuttlesworthStatue.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale. If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Daisy Blue Groff Deletion I was looking to write a page on Daisy Blue Groff, however, when I went to create it, noticed that one had been previously written (twice, once in 2012 and once in 2013), both for self-promotion. I didn't write these two previous articles but am now not allowed to post since the other two have been deleted and recreated. I'm a relatively new user and have a new article (complete with great outside references like CBC and the Edmonton Journal (an Albertan newspaper), so just checking in to see what my options are.

Maybe an Oops?
I created an article (ok, not much more than a stub) this morning using the correct spelling of the business name, as opposed to the stylized version. I based some of the text on the vesion from the French Wikipedia.
After creating the article, I then searched through Wikipedia for instances of the spelling in order to update "what links here". I surprisingly found that an article had been deleted 3 previous times based on the stylized spelling - and you're one of the deleters!
I have reviewed the 2009 AFD, and agree with the deletion at that time. However, I feel even the "stub-like" thing I created this morning beats the original AFD delete, and any A7's since.
I have decided NOT to login to my admin account to review the contents of the previously-deleted articles (yet). I will do so later to see if there's anything salvageable ... which of course will require some form of selective histmerge...unless of course, you (in your infinite wisdom) care to review those deleted versions first :-)

There is an ongoing campaign at that talk page. Admin David Eppstein is being targeted for whatever. It has been going on for some time.
