Regarding Artificial Photosynthesis

edit

Alright, that's cool. I just don't like lists. If the history list is going to be at the top of the article then we need more information to fill it out so that it reads like an article.

Re: Artificial Photosynthesis

edit

Oh thank you so much for your kind words :). I'll be writing some more the next few days, there's a lot to say about catalysts and photosensitizers, for example. It needs a few pictures, I'm finishing a simple triad scheme for now. The last section also needs reworking. We'll get there ;). PatríciaR msg 20:34, 17 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Note about talk pages

edit

Hi again, I reverted you here, editing other people's comments is generally not allowed per WP:TPO. (Again, there are legions of these little rules here!) In this case, your objection to his post was certainly reasonable, so it would be a good idea to address the bold assertion he made in a separate comment.

Hi. When you recently edited Boston Bruins Ice Girls, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charity (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

inre Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Manuel Saval

edit

I do understand that editors feel non-English sources are not always as "useful" to English readers as English-language sources, but I know you now understand WP:NONENG in that that sometimes their use cannot be avoided, and that in such cases their useage is perfectly fine. I would ask that you revist the article on Manuel Saval to see that it has gone through some major changes,[1] and then perhaps consider withdrawing your nomination of the article. Thanks, Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 09:04, 23 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Considering there is an ongoing debate as to whether this person is notable, I do not see why I would withdraw my nomination. If I were the only editor arguing that this person does not meet notability criteria then that would make sense, but I am not. I think that the result is going to be keep, but still I think it's worthy of discussion. I've backed-off of the discussion because it's kind of just turning into a hate-fest and I don't think it's too productive for me to take part at this point. But as some other editors have pointed out, the 'new and improved' references may not establish his notability as an actor, as they are focused on his illness more than his career.

Re: Articles for Deletion

edit

Who is it that decides if an article gets deleted? you mentioned a "deciding editor" in your posts is this a different person for each afd? Yaloe (talk) 01:40, 29 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • Hi Yaloe - Typically, the topic is discussed for 7 days, at which point any administrator will review the arguments presented, decide what action to take (keep, delete, merge, etc.), and close out the discussion.
It may be a bit of reading, but it would be useful to familiarize yourself with the deletion policy before participating in the process. MisterRichValentine (talk) 02:12, 29 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Account blocked

This account has been blocked by ArbCom due to concerns of abuse of multiple accounts. If MisterRichValentine would like to appeal this block, or anyone has concerns, please email us at arbcom-l@lists.wikimedia.org. SilkTork ✔Gay time 08:57, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

No, MisterRichValentine does not wish to appeal this block. Take a look at my contributions - No conflicts with other editors, no edit warring, no vandalism, nothing to be concerned about. Then ArbCom contacts me to ask some questions about a rogue admin, and when I try to help them out they all of a sudden think that I am not only a sock of that admin, but that another user who contacted that admin is also my sock. I was asked to spend my time defending their accusations (via e-mail - probably so everybody can't see how ridiculous their 'process' is) or be presumed guilty. Sorry, but I live in a society where I am innocent until proven guilty, and I'm not going to spend my time defending myself from ridiculous accusations. Looks like the almighty ArbCom has alienated yet another editor.

Also, if anybody is reading this you might want to go ahead and revert this diff. It's clearly vandalism, but the page was vandalized again and reverted so soon after that edit that now it's just buried in the article's history and difficult to see. Way to keep this encyclopedia accurate and free from abusive users like me, SilkTork! MisterRichValentine (talk) 20:19, 30 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Come on SilkTork, you know you're reading this!! Swallow your pride and revert the vandalism to fix one of the millions of errors on your little encyclopedia!! You know you want to, even if it proves that you shouldn't have blocked me for no reason! 1,726 people looked at the Boston Bruins page yesterday. That's 1,726 people that were misinformed because you're too proud to revert this vandalism! MisterRichValentine (talk) 13:37, 1 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
