Not sure what you want me to say to that... articles rarely look like that, and when they do, they get protected. Jmlk17 03:39, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, but that article, its not smart, yes it ends vandalism but it adds a whole lot of complexity to add a little bit of information to a very current event that will change dramaticly in many ways faster then the administration of wikipedia will be able to keep up.--Jakezing (talk) 03:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

My Report to WP:AIV
Just so you know, the reason I reported 155.144.251.120 was because I wasn't sure how recent is recent. I'm not trying to be an idiot or something. Just wanted to make sure you knew what I was doing. (so, how recent is recent? 24 hours? 48 hours? Just courious so that doesn't happen again.) Thanks. Thingg⊕⊗ 04:18, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, no worries! I am personally a bit hesitant to block someone who hasn't been warned in the past 24-48 hours. I think the IP you reported hadn't had one since the 14th. :) Jmlk17 04:20, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Revert on Emancipation Proclamation
Just wanted to let you know that I reinserted the "already" because it adds an important time context. I agree with you that it is redundant to those of us who already understand the timeline and nuances, but not necessarily to the average reader in the audience. I considered it for awhile before reverting it. The concern I had is that if "already" was omitted then some folks would incorrectly assume that slaves would not be automatically emancipated in territory coming under U.S. control in the future. Red Harvest (talk) 05:30, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Protection of Muffin top
Hi there. I see you've protected Muffin top. I would just like to ask why? The user Cumulus Clouds has been merging articles without consensus, and I wish to revert this to the cited, relevant article that it once was.-- JediLofty User ¦ Talk 09:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- I have unprotected the article to permit proper discussion. I hope you don't mind. If improper articles are created there then I suspect they will be dealt with properly. Stifle (talk) 11:47, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- That's fine, thank you for the heads up. Jmlk17 19:20, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Center for Disease Control Boys deleted
--Andreafed (talk) 19:30, 20 February 2008 (UTC)I can't believe you deleted The Center for Disease Control Boys. According to Wikipedia guideline #6, if a band contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable, it's worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia. The Center for Disease Control Boys was Chris Cornell's first band before Soundgarden. It also included George Hackett who went on to become Andrea Hackett who went on to found the Las Vegas Dancers Alliance [1], the first stripper union in Las Vegas. Ms Hackett's exploits were documented in Marc Cooper's[2] most recent book, The Last Honest Place in America and is featured prominently in an upcoming memoir due out this year. Clearly the Center for Disease Control Boys have earned their place on Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreafed (talk • contribs) 16:28, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Could you read agentss topic???
you didn't have time enough to read the hole article before delete it... is it "The free encyclopedia" ?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guigows (talk • contribs) 02:01, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
- Sure I did... the band never released an album, never achieved notability, and fails WP:BAND. Jmlk17 02:03, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
- Free encyclopedia does not mean any article at any time about any topic. Jmlk17 02:04, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I think taht you didn't read this part :
"AGENTSS recorded 2 singles. The first in 1981 was an independent production with the songs "Agentes" and "Angra". The second one in 1983 was released by the W.E A. record company with the songs "Professor Digital" and "Cidade Industrial" on it. It was produced by Pena Schmidt (re-mastered in the year 2000 on CD format in a compilation of the 80's bands)."
W.E.A now is W.M.G (Warner Music Group). Warner Music, I don't think that any band can record a sinlge with Warner Music...
Agentss is a cult band in Brazil... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guigows (talk • contribs) 02:19, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Domina Jalbert
Is there a way to get copy of the work I started on Domina Jalbert that you deleted? I had placed significant notes in the discussion page on notability after placing a hang on tag. You deleted very fast. Did you read the discussion page on the notability facts? I thought hang on tag would give some time. Please tell me if you read the notability argument up to that minute; and if so, how how you not see that Domina Jalbert is one of the most important inventors of the last century in aviation? Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joefaust (talk • contribs) 05:06, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

sockpuppets editing Muhammad
I have a suspicion that many of these vandalism-only accounts used to delete pictures from Muhammad are sockpuppets. Frotz (talk) 06:47, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but honestly, there are dozens of sites out there that are encouraging people to deelete the images. So while a few may be socks, I'm willing to bet that the majority are just sleeper single-purpose accounts. Jmlk17 06:52, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Zecco.com
Jmlk17,
Wow, that was fast. I'm dismayed that you deleted the page. What is it you have against Zecco? For some reason the citations for Bullpoo, Cake Financial, and Prosper_Marketplace are okay, but an article about zecco is automatically blatent advertising? Please reconsider for the following three reasons.
Let's start with the Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion. The third paragraph says:
Deletion is not required if a page meets these criteria. Before nominating an article for speedy deletion, consider whether it could be improved, reduced to a stub, merged or redirected elsewhere or be handled with some other action short of deletion. If this is possible, speedy deletion is probably inappropriate. Contributors sometimes create articles over several edits, so try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its creation if it appears incomplete. Users nominating a page for speedy deletion should specify which criteria the page meets and consider notifying the page's creator.
Do you think 4 hours might be too soon after a page's creation to delete it? I don't have too much free time and I create articles over several edits and it's a little harder to do so when the article gets deleted.
What makes it blatent advertising? If you don't know it by now, I am an advertising executive and although I do not have a conflict of interest in any editorial I write about Zecco, I do have an intimate relationship with the topic and company. I also know a little bit about advertising and if that article was advertising it was the worst I've ever seen. First off, it lacked all the things you need in advertising: attention, interest, desire, conviction, and action. There is no "call to action", no external links, no hyperbole, no unsupported factual assertions. As advertising it sucks. I would like to refer to the policy atWikipedia:Spam
Wikispam articles are usually noted for sales-oriented language and external links to a commercial website. However, a differentiation should be made between spam articles and legitimate articles about commercial entities. ... When an article on an otherwise encyclopedic topic has the tone of an advertisement, the article can often be salvaged by rewriting it in a neutral point of view. Elements of articles about products or services with brand names can also be combined under a common topic or category to facilitate unbiased and collaborative information by including information about the competition and about different alternatives.
The absence of external links and shamelessly promotional language certainly argues against a prima facia designation as spam. The writing may suck, but just becasue it lacks the stilted style of an encyclopedia citation, it isn't necessarily spam.
Lastly, I think maybe your itchy trigger finger on the delete button might have something to do with my perceived conflict of interest in the subject which I mentioned earlier. If you look at the text of what I wrote initially, there is little that is disputable or susceptible to spin. And if there were anything at all controversial, it is easily amended by improvements from another editor with a different point of view. I request that you treat my article creations as being done in good faith until you have reason to believe otherwise.
Finally, I'd like to point out the Wikipedia Deletion Policy:
Discussion
Disputes over page content are not dealt with by deleting the page. Likewise, disagreement over a policy or guideline is not dealt with by deleting it. Similarly, issues with an inappropriate user page can often be resolved through discussion with the user.
The content issues should be discussed at the relevant talk page, and other methods of dispute resolution should be used first, such as listing on Wikipedia:Requests for comments for further input. Deletion discussions that are really unresolved content disputes may be closed by an administrator, and referred to the talk page or other appropriate forum.
I respectfully request that the opportunity to write a page on Zecco.com be not only afforded me but that opportunity defended against summary deletion. If you don't like the content or style of the article, you have all the tools in the world to move it toward your liking. Thank you.

Capitilization in French
Capitilization rules in French and English are quite different [3]. Specifically for titles or proper nouns, the French language does not generally capitalize anything but the first word of the proper noun [4]. For confirmation about this specific example, you can look at the French language version of the article at fr:LNH. Regards, -- Jeff3000 (talk) 00:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Colorado State University
Jmlk17,
I don't understand why my additions to the Colorado State University page have been deleted, not partially edited or altered, but removed wholesale. I hope we can discuss this.Spilly816 (talk) 06:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Of course. I noticed that in the course of your edits, numerous sections and the entire sources and footnotes section were removed. Jmlk17 06:34, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Ah I understand, I'm glad you brought the source problem up. During the edit following one I'm referring you to below, on student life, the entire source page disapeared on me, and I could not figured out why or what I had done to cause that to happen. It was not intentional, and I hope as a more experienced editor you can help me restore the source page. In fact, there were fewer than 5 sources for the entire page before I began and there were nearly 100 citations from my own additions. In regards to deleting sections, I did not delete any information that was previous there (except for updating stats like student population to 2007 figures), but rather consolidated or expanded small sections underneath new headings. (for example, "international programs used to be its own section. I added more information and made it a subsection under the heading "academic programs"). I hope that explains some things and that we can consider reverting back to an older version before the accidental erasure or the sources, and go from there.
Here is the version immediately prior to accidental source erasing: This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Spilly816 (Talk | contribs) at 20:52, 19 February 2008. It may differ significantly from the current revision Spilly816 (talk) 19:15, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oh of course. I'll be more than happy to work with you on it. :) Jmlk17 20:49, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Great. Shall we begin by reverting to the version previous to the sources deletion, and ensuring that all are in agreement with the citations and any changes in the structure of the page that had been made? (eg consolidating/moving sections that had limited info, and updating facts etc?)Spilly816 (talk) 19:29, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- Sounds good. :) Jmlk17 22:06, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- Done. I reverted to this edit. It's not bad at all... there were only 2 more editors beyond this one. Jmlk17 22:12, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
I've put up some new information and sections under Student Life. The new sections were re-entered as headers from info previously posted under bolded dividers, for example residence life. I also added/updated information and citations. Let me know of any issues that arise. I'll be working on athletics over the next couple days. I appreciate your assistance and feedback with the previous and future revisions.Spilly816 (talk) 02:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

I just mean that persons who are listed in fi.wikipedia are not necessarily important enough on the en.wikipedia?

DeadAir0
Jmlk17,
Kind of new to this whole thing so please bare with me. I did a bit of research and it looks like the page I created was banned due to the notability guidelines, which is fine. I'm willing to do whatever is needed to appease you and Wikipedia. If it's not too much trouble, could you point to what you'd like me to work on and how to go about fixing it? Thank you for your time.
-Deadairfan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deadairfan (talk • contribs) 16:22, February 22, 2008
- Of course... please check out our web notability guidelines for a bit more information. Jmlk17 00:04, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Jmlk17,
Hey, thank you for the response. Still feeling this whole thing out. So I saw that you did the quick delete thingy because of "A7", which wikipedia lists as:
An article about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from questions of notability, verifiability and reliability of sources. A7 applies only to articles about web content or articles on people and organizations themselves, not articles on their books, albums, software and so on. Other article types are not eligible for deletion by this criterion. If controversial, as with schools, list the article at Articles for deletion instead.
So the issue wasn't notability...it was simply an issue of web content? Basically, is there a way I can submit what I had before in a manner which would be okay with Wikipedia? I'm not trying to promote the podcast at all and I don't have to link it in any way if you wish. If the issue is "significance", mainly meaning "why is it significant enough to mention on Wikipedia", well, what kind of milemarkers would satisfy wikipedia? A petition with a certain amount of signatures? One of the guys I mentioned had been cast on a reality television show...would that make a difference?
Thanks again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deadairfan (talk • contribs) 00:56, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Please. Dog-Day Cicada.
It seemed important to people on Long Island & NYC. The band I wrote about is working on a full album, so isn't just some basement band. The stuff that seemed fake was probably just filler, although some things there that seemed fake are true. Sorry for not citing anything. It was a work in progress and in fairness I did say I'd fix it, I was tired and didn't complete it. Plus it was my first one. I'd really appreciate if you restored it.
Thank you, --Agrande (talk) 18:33, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Tarc, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Raphael1 11:26, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Semi-Protection
I noticed that a few days ago, you added semi-protection here to the article Yawn. The culprit 68.126.179.154 prompted your action. Whenever I see vandalism, I usually put a {{subst:uw-v1}} (or v2 or v3) on the culprit's Talk page, right after doing the Rollback. If the vandalism is unmistakably blatant, then I go straight to {{subst:uw-bv}} instead (and I took the liberty of adding a bv warning to 68.126.179.154 because I saw that you had not). Just curious if maybe I should be doing something different, since I'm a semi-newbie. My guess is semi-protection is only available to admins. Please advise. Thanks. Art Smart (talk) 11:35, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Semi-protection prevents any IP and newly-created account (4 days or less I believe) from editing the page. You're doing just fine my friend. :) Jmlk17 17:40, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the vote of confidence. As for semi-protection, is that only available to admins, or might I do likewise if an article seems targeted by multiple IP addresses? Thanks again. Art Smart (talk) 13:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey J17 - on 2/22 you deleted Samchuly; I had prodded the article, and the prod expired. Since then another editor has raised a concern about my prod; could you un-delete the article so that editor and I could try to work collectively to improve it? If this is not the right place to make the request, please let me know. Thanks! UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:11, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Removing talk page contributions
Hi, I noticed you've been deleting some comments on the Muhammad talk page while people making the same point over and over and over again is as annoying to you as it is to us all, in my opinion it might be worth leaving the post up for a couple of days (with replies) to enable the original poster to read other people's comments. Just a thought. RaseaC (talk) 22:14, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
- I agree... to a point. But what we end up with is numerous different threads, all beginning with the exact same blurb: a demand to remove the images, followed by people explaining again and again why we aren't going to do that. The talk pages are already cluttered, and just adding to them with the exact same junk doesn't help. Jmlk17 23:56, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
- I totally agree with you, people are obviously not reading previous discussions or the FAQ and to an extent it seems stupid to reply to every post but at the same time I think that a couple of days gives someone enough of a chance to see any replies. That said, there are so many people asking the same thing and getting the same answer chances are they'll get their question answered by someone else's post!! RaseaC (talk) 00:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed. Unfortunately, far too many people are seeing that damn petition, and coming here to just create an account/use and IP just for a one time only demand on the talk page(s), or remove the images themselves for a short time. Just sort of sucks eh? I'm all for removing the threads on the talk pages and then leaving a note on the user's talk page, but I realize that that is just my own personal approach! :) Jmlk17 00:10, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- My point is that they should get a reply, I didn't realise you were leaving talk page notes, that's a much better idea than replying on the article talk page. At the end of the day I think 99.9% of posters are, like you said, just here to request a delete and then forget Wikipedia exists, but for the .1% it's nice to show we (or someone else) cares! It's not a major thing either way, if someone makes a valid, non-repeated point then obviously it's worth keeping but otherwise there's valid reasons for keeping and deleting. RaseaC (talk) 02:00, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the cooldown note. I'm not going to continue that discussion.

Don't bother with that one. Best I can tell: he's read a bit of anthropology and thinks that the only way to discuss a culture or member of a culture is in a way that is meaningful to that culture. Of course, he completely ignores the fact that the point of WP is almost exactly the opposite. The project is an observer of culture, and we need to write it as neutral observers in a manner that eases cross cultural comparsison.-MasonicDevice (talk) 21:49, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

It's not vandalism as such. It is an IP who for over two weeks has been changing the wording of Tom Bates even though FOUR editors have patiently explained matters. Please look at Talk:Tom Bates. There is a limit to how much one can keep on explaining and reverting. User:Calbear22 has been holding the fort on his own, but has been requesting assistance in the form of other opinions. Those opinions have been given, but the IP still won't listen. A page with a two week edit war which has dragged in three additional editors really does require protection!! I think there's a limit to how many editors can explain the situation, and a limit to the patience of any reasonable editor when faced with two weeks of reverts. A two week semi-protection would allow the IP to cool off, allow Calbear22 to rest up and constructively build the article, and free up the other editors to do more productive work. :-) SilkTork *What's YOUR point? 23:27, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Full protection of List of songs in Rock Band
I'm curious why you chose to do this. We have consensus of at least five regular editors supporting the page in its current form, against two opposed. Protection is a radical and unnecessary step (it's not like this page has been the subject of constant edit wars or anything) and I ask that you return the page to semi-protection as it was. Furthermore, since this is a page that needs frequent changing (new content needs to be added each Tuesday and Friday as content is released and then the next week's content is announced) protection will cause the page to quickly get out of date. If you'd like to reply on my talk page or at Talk:List of songs in Rock Band, either is fine with me. Oren0 (talk) 01:08, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply at my page. The issues really seem to be dragged out by one user who refuses to explain his reasoning beyond repeating the same arguments again and again. The majority of the page's editors are in agreement that the disputed section should stay. I've invited him to open the matter up for further comment using RfC but he has so far failed to do so. I'm slightly bothered that the actions of one editor for a dispute that isn't even that big a deal would lock down the entire page. We can work it out without protection.

your proposed deletion of Algerian Ice Hockey articles
I received your message about deleting the articles, I am actually a member of the Algerian ice hockey federation, therefore all details are correct. The website www.hockeyalgeria.com IS the official website of the Algerian ice hockey federation. What other means do you need to verify these facts?
The algerian ice hockey federation is currently applying to the IIHF, pending a few legal documents, with Karim Kerbouche listed as president and Yannick Hamri listed as general secretary.
Please inform me of which detail you have a problem with and I'll provide evidence.
Thank You

- Well, the website itself lists no games played, none scheduled, and no statistics. All it has is information on a league that is in the process of formation, and not much else. How can a group be notable when it isn't even in the process of running nor competing? Jmlk17 00:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
The algerian ice hockey federation was formed in 2006, from that date up until present we have been working on government backing, IIHF backing and recruiting players.
We now have government backing, IIHF backing (although some legal documents are required before we become members) and we have players. We will compete in the arab cup of ice hockey in june, along with morocco who are in the same position as us, and UAE and Kuwait who are members of the IIHF.
Djilali Hamri is notable due to the fact he is an algerian born ice hockey player who played over 15 seasons in the top french league, he is like a brian leetch or paul coffee of algerian ice hockey.
Yannick Hamri, who is Djilali's son, has played the last 4 seasons in french division 1, but above that he has put alot of time and energy into making algerian hockey succeed, and deffinately deserves to be mentioned as part of algerian ice hockey.
I know in professional hockey these guys are not big names but in algerian hockey they are. These wiki articles are essential for us to get noticed in the hockey world, us and morocco are the 2 newest hockey nations and most people still dont know.
Thanks

- Very well explained my friend. Feel free to remove the PROD tags. If I may recommend something though: try and find a couple of third-party outside sources to help the articles a bit. Best of luck! Jmlk17 07:12, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

China Pacific Insurance
Why do you want to delete it? It is famous because it is the third largest insurance company in China. The places outside China also know this company. Ricky@36

You know you're doing a good job when you become the target. Smile, block them, and be done with them :) -- Longhair\talk 09:16, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey, could you block the range of the dynamic IP vandal from Michael Tsarion please? I requested this at the Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism but it was removed by a bot before any admin read it... thanks --Nuttycoconut (talk) 09:23, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
- Working on it... :) Jmlk17 09:37, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism at User talk:JaGa and Michael Tsarion
Looks like the one who vandalized these two articles and the one who vandalized your talk page are one and the same (based on the edits on your talkpage). Happy revert man :-) E Wing (talk) 09:32, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
- Uh, add User talk:99.141.220.64 and User talk:99.141.217.199 to that. Looks like they're editing from a same IP provider. E Wing (talk) 09:40, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Deletion of my Page on WIKIPEDIA
Who gave you authority to delete my page?
Can you give me a valid reason why you chose to delete my page Alan King - Massurreal Artist without the courtesy of contacting me.
My images are used throughout Wikipedia, I have work in several galleries worldwide, my work is studied at several Universities, including Oxford University and the Museum of Computer Art in New York, I am also referred to and linked to by many Surreal and Massurreal sites on WIKI.
I have found that WIKI is boycotted more and more due to the unprofessional nature of its administration, which seems to continually allow anyone to edit and delete at will.
I am now withdrawing my permission for my image, In_the_valley_all_was_still.jpg to be used on WIKIPEDIA - and so can you immediataely remove it from WIKIPEDIA—Preceding unsigned comment added by Alankinguk (talk • contribs) 12:21, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Pablo Zamora and Kurt Carrera
Why my article was deleted? is notable, see w:es:Pablo Zamora and Kurt Carrera. Or see the automatic translation... in Google --MisterWiki talking! :-D - 20:19, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
- It seems as if Spanish Wikipedia has different rules and standards than we do here. I still am unable to find any notability. Jmlk17 21:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you.
Will do. And thank you, I appricate it. A Raider Like Indiana (talk)

your "Pipetting Valley" deletion
Hi Jmlk17
I have realized that you have deleted the entry "Pipetting Valley" with the comment that it would not be available anywhere else in Google. Actually, it gives 102 hits in Google, 243 in Yahoo. It is a relatively new expression - that's correct, but it discribes an area in Switzerland that hosts the majority of companies in the field of liquid handling automation - which is well understood by people working in laboratories. These companies are also organized in various clusters and industrial organisations.
Please reconsider your deletion and aktivate the articel again.
Best regards,

- I'm sorry my friend, but it seems to not be a notable article. Jmlk17 22:11, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Could I ask for the above page to be restored? Specifically that it be restored to the soft redirect to Wiktionary that it was before it was hit by the NN band's edits. - TexasAndroid (talk) 13:28, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- Whoops... my mistake. Done. :) Jmlk17 22:09, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi, please understand that db-notenglish only applies to articles that are transwikied or otherwise exist on another wikimedia project. Simply being in another language is not a criteria for speedy deletion on itself. I've therefore undeleted the article, but if you can point out the location in another project where the article exists, I'll be happy to revert myself. Thanks. -Bobet 14:57, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
