Very few British police forces now have mounted units. That list is more or less complete. -- Necrothesp 11:09, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello! You removed the category from this article and I agree with that change. Perhaps you can suggest a more appropriate one. I've done some looking but nothing seems adequate. Thanks! --JustAGal 16:39, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Bad Stain records Page
Hi there. You recently tagged a page I created for deletion. I was wondering why, and if you had any advice on how to improve the page. I was attempting to create a good page for one of my favorite labels from Phoenix. I think they fit the criteria because the albums feature bands that are well known like Less Than Jake, At The Drive In, The Weakerthans, etc. They also have a lot of articles from publications about them, and other websites. I listed some references I got my info from. Plus I own the book Valley of the Spun that has a full chapter on Chase Stain and the label. If you could help me out to make it a better page I would really appreciate it. I want to make sure that others can read about some of the history of the label. If you believe any certain part of the article is inaccurate, let me know and I'll get right on it! Like I said, I am new to this and still learning. Thanks for the help! Cheers, Brian LeMaster
Probably 'cos people make a similar page every minute - the label needs to be pretty importnt to be on Wikipedia, there are so many labels out there. Guydrury 18:21, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
RE: Demise of the Crown
I shall see if I can find a reference online – I just know because when I signed my contract with Buckingham Palace, that contract was with "HM The Queen and her successors" or similar... DBD 23:02, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- However, having said that, I've checked the civil service page, which clearly states that civil servants are employed by The Crown, not The Queen – what do you think, is internal consistency a good enough support to add my edit back in? DBD 23:23, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
Hello
Hello
What the hell do you think your doing removing a large amount of text article I did, I worked really hard on that and it was all accurate. Thanks very much! In future could you not I dont mind you adding etc or removing something if it is wrong but why delete all of it, its just plain silly. I dont want to fall out with you over something so trvial cant we just come to a compromise?
Ok thats fair enough, i'm not trying to stop you editing it but could you just not delete. Now lets have no more said about the matter. Thank You.
Oh come on you have done it again its not funny anymore, lets leave the heading paracgraph as it is. Please! There is no need for this. If I was you I would be quite ashamed that the younger person in this stupid argument is actually trying to reason with you and be logical where as it should be the other way around i theroi.
Calm it down a minute. Your munging this into something it isnt, I made the point that Its ok with me if you add things to it. But I just dont want my text deleted especially as its accurate.

Invite
I invite you to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Law Enforcement If you havent already. It could just be me being blind but when I looked on the list I didnt see you so I thought I'd invite you anyway. As you seem to be interested in Police etc.

Template:Can LawEnforce
I've reverted your change from 'Manpower' to type of police officers. As you notice, there are 4 articles within that category and none of them are police officers. Rationale as below:
Police officer, by legal definition, can enforce municipal, provincial and federal laws within the areas of their appointment. However, peace officers (which can be a pilot of an aircraft), can't enforce anything outside of federal laws.
Auxiliary Officers are volunteers and thus, by Criminal Code of Canada, can not call themselves police. If you have seen pictures of RCMP Auxiliaries, you will know nowhere on their cars, jackets, etc have the word 'Police' on there.
BSOs are peace officers, able to enforce federal laws only.
Special Constables, while you can technically call them a police officers (depending how they are appointed and where). However, most provincial governments have decided not to call them 'police officers'.
--Cahk (talk) 21:08, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- I chose that term because, in part, there aren't much terms to describe it.
- As I pointed out earlier, RCMP Auxiliary is a voluntary program and their job is to support regular member and do community policing as oppose to law enforcement.
- 'Types of Officers' sounds fine, except these 4 articles deal with a very limited amount of 'officers' in Canada. ie. Conservation Officers, Correctional officers, etc.--Cahk (talk) 00:25, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
RP
Thank you for your link. I am an ex Provost Officer, a former Infantry Officer and a qualified Solicitor. The statute cited does not give the authority you suggest. RPs act with the delegated authority of an officer - usually the CO. COs have limited summary powers. If you kinclude RPs why not Shore Patrols? If Shore Patrols why not all citizens who can effect an arrest in limited circs? --MJB (talk) 10:05, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Copyright violations
Hi, I see that you create articles with copyright problems. I suggest that you read Wikipedia:Copyright violations. You need to completely reformulate the content of a source before adding it to Wikipedia. In some cases, the website has a license compatible with a use on Wikipedia but you must prove it before copying the content. Cenarium (talk) 23:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I note you have listed the above company for deletion suggesting it is not notable. If you the read the article carefully I think you will find this is explained...it was once one the 30 biggest companies in the UK. Please can I respectfully suggest you remove the tag.

hopes die last
I am sorry that my article didn't meet crieitera. If i get more info can the article stay? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guitardude3600 (talk • contribs) 15:45, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
I strongly disagreed and disagree with you, not least by the very fact that you did not take one moment to reflect on what you were tagging for deletion. Regrettably, reflection seems no longer to be part of our contemporary culture; only hasty actions seem to count. --BF 21:28, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- I do whatever I deem appropriate and you should mind your own business! Incidentally, didn't they teach you that when addressing others, one uses such words as "please" and the like? Any why, it is a sad day when Google is the standard of knowledge — should you wish to know, the film at issue was released two days ago. Finally, I do not wish to continue exchanges with you, so please do not leave any messages in my talk page any longer. I have a natural abhorrence of vigilantism, of do-goods and of know-alls. --BF 22:28, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
RE: Surviving Antarctica
Someone Already Deleted it while I was Editing it. So please do not get mad at me!!!! :( --Obaidz96 (talk) 00:17, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
- Sir, Please Review Surviving Antarctica one more time. I found somewhat of a loophole on the {{hangon}} tag. I gave an explanation, I am disputing the speedy deletion on the Talk Page, and I am sure that the article Does NOT meet the speedy deletion criteria. Please reply on my talk page. --Obaidz96 (talk) 00:50, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Note that books, albums, software etc.; and potentially controversial topics such as schools, are not eligible for this criterion. See CSD A7. Please, remove the tag. --Ondrejsv (talk) 12:59, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
excessive use of speedy tags
I am totally puzzled why you thought the article on Rick Turner did not assert importance. If you thought the importance was insufficient, the proper course would have been to place a POROD or an AfD. But in fact the article at present shows not only an indication pf importance, but the importance and sourcing is such that I think it would easily survive AfD. (Agreed, it was not yet sourced when you tagged it).
Additionally Red Zinger Mini Classics is about a competition, not a person, and while I havent the least idea if it is important enough to pass AfD it is not a db-bio.
I have also noticed other admins as well have been removing about one fourth of your speedy tags for similar reasons,including those on people who are , for example, a judge of the The Supreme Court of India., or about record albums--which are specifically stated not to be speedy-able. Please re-read WP:CSD about which tag to use when. DGG (talk) 14:17, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Dont worry that much about using the right db-nn tag at present--the wording is in the process of being changed & it doesnt always go right.. But the group {{db-person}} {{db-corp}} {{db-group}} {{db-web}} are safest. Just be concerned at using the right reason in the first place; it's stretching it excessively to describe a race as a group or company. In some cases, minor athletic competitions can be tagged as spam, especially if they advertise how to attend , but that didnt apply here. I agree that race is quite possibly non notable. Since it's opposed, there's no point using prod, and you might want to take it to AFD. Suggestion--go a little slower, and see how people take things. Nobody can avoid making mistakes, but at least if you do small numbers at a time a misconception wont affect too much and you'll have a better chance to learn. DGG (talk) 14:53, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
by the way Shahidul Jahir asserts significant publications, and thus wasnt a good speedy either. In fact, since two of his stories are asserted to have been made into films, that would usually be taken here to prove actual notability if it can be sourced.
As an indication of what would make a good speedy, consider the following (I took them from yesterday's NewPages that had missed being patrolled -- I'm not putting speedy tags on myself, so you'll have a chance to look at them:Spring Fest Core Team 200, Kat Shandruk ,Jason bray DGG (talk) 01:42, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Images of Croydon
I saw that you put a propose deletion on the Images of Croydon page. First of all, that was fast! It was less than a minute since the page went live and I hadn't even put any links onto it yet. This article is similar to Images of Manchester which has been on wiki for a year and one day. It's not the same as it is spread out in categories making it easier to find pictures. It's not just for readers, but mainly for editors in Croydon and London writing about the borough trying to find a suitable image. If the other article is allowed to stay this one should aswell. Pafcool2 (talk) 16:18, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Would you be happy if I added more text to the article, because I could. But I won't let this article be deleted and yet the Images of Manchester one stay on as that's bias. Pafcool2 (talk) 16:23, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
I've added more text to the article now, I think it should be safe from deletion as it provides information that Commons can't provide. Pafcool2 (talk) 16:53, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
- To Pafcool2, what difference does it make that it was tagged within minutes: it was not going to become any more encyclopedic was it? What on earth do you mean "provides information that Commons can't provide"? One can link from the Commons back to here, see for example the detailed description on this image or any of my other uploads.
- I agree with Ninetyone, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Images of Croydon. (I'm all right - the article includes some of my images but they are on the Commons already.) -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 19:37, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Just an FYI: when some kind of notability is asserted, an article doesn't qualify for speedy deletion under those criteria. Even if the subject turns out to be non-notable, the assertion alone disqualifies it for CSD. (This does not include wildly unlikely, hoaxy claims, like Bob is god to you, or Linda is the best saxophonis evar!!!1!.) - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 17:05, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
You might want to look at this for Speedy Deletion as well.
[1], This page which is marked with another page you linked should also be deleted I think. Thank you Yaho (talk) 19:58, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Kelly Dransfeldt
Just a friendly heads up on Kelly Dransfeldt. I removed your speedy request, as there was a definite claim of meeting WP:BIO. Wikipedia:BIO#Athletes says "Competitors and coaches who have competed in a fully professional league" are generally considered notable. (Unless, of course, you are a National League baseball fan and don't consider the American League to be fully professional *grin*)--Fabrictramp (talk) 21:24, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
New Page
Why did you move and rename the New York City and Other States Nightlife legislations? I had just uploaded this! Quite rude! Also if you'll look other states are mentioned.
- if it includes other states, it should be a more general title. otherwise the title gives precedence to NYC. i didn't see the other states, sorry! ninety:one 21:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
It's got Louisiana and Ohio and I expect other Wikipedia editors to add information about other states and their laws as well. If it saves one person then the page is worth it.--MurderWatcher1 (talk) 21:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
- if it includes other states, it should be a more general title. otherwise the title gives precedence to NYC. i didn't see the other states, sorry! ninety:one 21:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
- you see, you can't just have an entire article on NYC then some other states under the current name, it is either 'Nightlife legislation in New York City' or 'Nightlife legislation in the United States'. ninety:one 21:49, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
No but it STARTED in New York, Okay? Read the article.--MurderWatcher1 (talk) 21:50, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Also, the page originated from the Imette St. Guillen and Jennifer Moore Wiki pages as another editor had suggested some time ago to split the section so after much editing, re-research, etc. I did same. Those two pages now link to this new one so the title of the page is proper.--MurderWatcher1 (talk) 21:54, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
