Deletions from talk pages

edit

Please do not delete material from my (or anybody else's) talk page. --RoySmith 21:02, 21 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Of course if you want to retract a statement then deleting is OKish but striking it through is even better. I dson't know why RoySmith would waste time restoring a comment you made on his talk page when it was clear you were trying to retract the statement and then go on to undo your strikeout when you when you tried that.Very strange.

Sigh. I really don't like people deleting stuff from my talk page, whether it's their own stuff or not. I guess I'm OK with the strikeout, but when you struck your stuff out the first time, you put the <s> markup around the section head too, which messed up the table of contents and made it look like you had deleted it again. By the time I figured out what had gone wrong, I was starting to get annoyed at the whole mess. This whole thing is strange. I notice that somebody deleted a whole bunch of comments from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DoYouDo as well. Deleting text from talk/vote/discussion pages, even if it's completely innocent, tends to get people suspicious about what is going on. Even more so when it's being done by anonymous users. --RoySmith 03:55, 22 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Goucher College

edit

Hi, this is the second time you've added that admission to Goucher College is "highly selective". School spirit is cool, but unfortunately, your statement is POV, and with an admission rate of nearly 70%, it is also very untrue. Both factors make the statement unencyclopedic. -Taco325i 15:49, 23 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Cheerleading, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

  Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to ExxonMobil. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

ExxonMobil

edit

User:Anastrophe, User:76.100.55.131, User:205.217.105.2 - you are all sailing close to the Three Revert Rule over the presence or absence of one word in ExxonMobil. Please try to conduct a discussion on Talk:ExxonMobil rather than carrying it out via edit summaries. --Stormie 01:37, 23 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

refrain from personal attacks

edit

your speculation in your edit summary - "undo bias editing by possible exxon employee. without citation to prove the opposite, statement stands" - is a thinly veiled personal attack. please refrain from such uncivil behavior. Please make the effort to read the talk page for ExxonMobil where I have attempted to engage in dialogue with you and the other editors. thank you. Anastrophe 16:57, 23 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I Apologize

edit

You have my sincerest apologies for the edits on the waterboarding article. It was my opinion, I was just using a work computer when conveying it. I feel like a complete asshole for bypassing the Discussion section and will refrain from doing so in the future. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.50.151.8 (talk) 20:11, 6 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ripoff moved to draftspace

edit

An article you created, Ripoff, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. CaillouFan (talk) 20:12, 21 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

No, it isn't moved. Sorry for the inconvenience, if you're still here. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 21:40, 23 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Ripoff moved to draftspace. Second time back at draft. No refs.

Speedy deletion nomination of Nice Ideas

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Nice Ideas requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Proposed deletion of Universal Games

edit
 

The article Universal Games has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

he coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
