THANKS!

Hi Jeff G!

I wanted to thank you so very much for all the work and help with editing on my article. You were very helpful and I appreciate it so much. I understand it is approved and nothing more to do. I told Tim Trent I appreciated his help as well. I told him I looked up Larry Geller in Yahoo and Google but didn't see the article. He is now telling me he can't help what Google and other search engines do. I'm wondering why we went through all of this but maybe it's just a wait until they pick it up. Does it take them awhile to actually post articles? Please let me know.

Thanks and thanks for all of your work! I could not do it without you!

Larry Geller

How do you feel about a DYK from it? I'm happy to propose it, but, really, you did the work and you should. It looks a great target for one Fiddle Faddle 09:54, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

I think it qualifies, but what would stand out as the DYK?   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 17:36, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

...That Elvis Presley's hairstylist Larry Geller was also his spiritual advisor?

Short and to the point.

The article meets the technical qualifications. It is long enough and new enough. The hook is interesting. The article is well referenced and the fact in the hook is (presumably) cited. Fiddle Faddle 18:35, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Do let me know, unless you have done it, because we have a shot time limit to enter. Fiddle Faddle 22:56, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Done.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 23:51, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

I don't know if you have done one of these before or not, but it can take a while to get to the top of the pile. Or it can happen in th blink of an eye. You ought to get a message if folk need some stuff expanded on, or some article tweaks, but to should be relatively plain sailing. Fiddle Faddle 00:00, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, it has been a long time since I did one.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:03, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

The folk who inhabit that area seem to be somewhat pernickety nowadays. The main this was to grab the place in the non-queue. Other hooks can be suggested at leisure, now, though I think this one sums the article up. I've only done four, I think. If you have done very few I think you don't need to do a quid-pro-quo review. I never understood that part, so I have done them anyway, though not always well! Fiddle Faddle 00:14, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Hotel Urbano Company

Hello Jeff. Thanks for your message on my talk page. I totally understand your point and my apologies for not making clear about my edits on Hotel Urbano (company) . I did a big research on Hotel Urbano and have edited accordingly to the most updated content in their portuguese wiki page. However, you were right, I didn't make the edits in parts by explaining the reasons for deleting some of the content. The thing is I removed a section but then edited that information to a new section that made more sense in terms of organization. In the end, I didn't really delete anything, but re-wrote it in a more neutral way and better organized, following Wikipedia's guidelines. I'm going to edit the page again, making a few modifications and also clarifying my reasons. Please take a look once I'm done and let me know if you have any other feedback, but I believe this time it should go all well. Thanks again for helping! AddyM (talk) 15:12, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Thank you. I made some minor changes.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 06:27, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

You know this guy his name is not derek he is a random troll he is causing he is mean and he's a bully

There are alot of people who are having alot of problems with him he is ânot administrator and he is not Site Monitor — Preceding unsigned comment added by Girlmeetsworld8888 (talk • contribs) 13:49, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

@Girlmeetsworld8888: How do you know about his drama? Where can I see it (on what wiki, with what diffs)? What is his name, if it is not Derek (and how do you know that)? What makes you better than he is? I see that he has no contributions to any WMF wiki, is blocked on girlmeetsworld.wikia.com, was blocked on moviestarplanet.wikia.com, and was demoted on boymeetsworld.wikia.com. If his drama is on another Wikia, you may contact an administrator or bureaucrat on that Wikia or use this link. Also, from looking further into this, where are he and cabbeloverSac222 admins, where have they claimed to be admins, and what did they do to you or badly (specifically, with diffs)? Thank you.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 16:02, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

@SpikeToronto: Do you know anything about this?   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 01:00, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: No idea. I think it relates to something over at Wikia. You may have noticed the odd tweets to ATW’s Twitter account, which I think are related. I’m choosing to disregard and have been deleting similar emails. I have responded to comments on my talk pages, though (see commons:User talk:SpikeToronto). But, that’s the best that I can do since I cannot figure it out. Thanks Jeff!😀 — SpikeToronto 07:40, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
