Another editor has added the {{prod}}
template to the article Associated Students of the University of California, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}}
template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 06:59, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Please restore this AfD discussion. I am pretty sure that this was not a hoax nom, but you could ask Sceptre (talk · contribs) for clarification on the motivation for the nom. Cirt (talk) 06:12, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- I wasn't the one who originally deleted the AfD; it was ^demon (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) that did it. I only moved it to my user space and deleted the residual redirect. In any case, I'll ask Sceptre if the nomination was supposed to be serious. --Ixfd64 (talk) 06:24, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- It was meant to be serious. It just got caught up in the April Fool's silliness, and my nomination reason didn't help. Sceptre (talk) 06:29, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing it up. I was going to move it back, but I see that you've already done so. :-) --Ixfd64 (talk) 06:47, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Hitler redirect to Jesus
editHi, I saw you dealt with someone doing this recently so I figured I'd let you know that another IP just did the same thing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/128.113.228.110
IP looked similar to the original vandal so I figured I would just let you deal with it. DX927 (talk) 06:52, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Ixfd64. I have requested the deletion of an article that you authored, Sean Bell. I understand that this may be unpleasant for you, but I hope that it will not stand between us as editors. Please feel free to discuss here. Screen stalker (talk) 15:55, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Dsx, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Dsx is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Dsx, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Bot approved: dabbing help needed
editHi there. Fritz bot has been approved at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/FritzpollBot for filling in a possible 1.8 million articles on settlements across the world. Now dabbing needs to be done for links which aren't sorted as the bot will bypass any blue links. and I need as many people as possible to help me with Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Places to prepare for the bot. If you could tackle a page or two everything counts as it will be hard to do it alone. PLease also pass on the message to anybody else who you may think might be willing to help.

Your You tube videos..
editIn light of the disgraceful attitude of YouTube/Google towards both the use of (C) materials and user privacy, I am at present checking reviewng and in some cases removing links to YouTube from English Wikipedia..
I noted that you have a number of Videos relating to Yellowstone park, on you tube..
If you are the copyright owner of these, It is STRONGLY recomended that instead of using the propriatery You Tube system, you transcode them to a 'open' format (OGG Theora is ideal) and upload them under suitable 'free' license on commons, to enable thier use on Wikimedia projects.
Thanks Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:10, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- I do plan to upload some of my Yellowstone videos to Wikimedia Commons, but I haven't had the time to convert them to OGV format yet. :( --Ixfd64 (talk) 20:35, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

editProposed deletion of Natural Bridges State Beach
editA proposed deletion template has been added to the article Natural Bridges State Beach, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. — X S G 05:08, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

There have been several attempts at a speedy renaming of this cat. What happened in the last one? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 00:02, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- I originally proposed that the category be speedily renamed to Category:Sword-and-sorcery films (with a lowercase "s" in "sorcery"), but other users argued that it did not fit the criteria for speedy renaming. As far as I know, there was no further consensus on this issue. --Ixfd64 (talk) 00:19, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- I still think it should be renamed Category:Sword and sorcery, which matches the Wikipedia article. I never understood why 'films' was part of the title. If you happened to notice, some of the articles in this category are not films, but belong in the genre anyway. Should we propose a {{cfr}}? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 02:20, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- That's fine with me. --Ixfd64 (talk) 02:34, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- Do you want to initiate it? I'm about to skim through the rest of my watchlist. May take a while ... Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 03:27, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- OK, I've listed it on CFD. --Ixfd64 (talk) 03:56, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on FormGen, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ThunderCatsFan (talk) 02:16, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
Why includeonly? That way it categorizes all pages it's transcluded on as well, which may not necessarily be related to the template. No other template is constructed like that too; mind if I restore it? -- Mentisock 13:50, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
- I added the includeonly tag because the categories it enclosed are intended for articles. Template:Internet memes itself is not an article. --Ixfd64 (talk) 22:56, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe delete the categories then? I don't think other templates include cats for their articles, correct me if I'm wrong though. -- Mentisock 20:35, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
Trader Joe's page edit

Help needed
editWell, I'm somewhat like "Fred" and concluded that my user page (not my user talk page) should be completely blank. In order to achieve this I need your help. Please help me, I would greatly appreciate that.

AfD nomination of World Vaisnava Association
editI have nominated World Vaisnava Association, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/World Vaisnava Association. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Speedy deletion of World Vaisnava Association
editA tag has been placed on World Vaisnava Association 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 or corporation, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. §hawnpoo 04:03, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
