deleted of page of Frank Karlitschek
[edit]Hi, I noticed that you deleted the page of Frank Karlitschek completely. You said that it just advertising and not relevant. This is not true. If you search for Frank on the Internet you see that he is a well known Open Source person and a regular keynote speaker at big conferences. There are even several other Wikipedia pages mentioning him. So it would be great if you could recreate the page. If you think that the content is just advertising for projects I would appreciate if you could give me some hints how to improve the text so that it is more appropriate. Thanks in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CmdrSource (talk • contribs) 00:10, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
Olimp page deleted
[edit]Hi, I just noticed you deleted the page for "Olimp" [1] with the rationale "G6: Deleted to make room for an uncontroversial page move". I can't remember what Olimp redirected to previously (Olimp, Romania I think), but apparently this uncontroversial page move never happened since there's nothing under "Olimp" as of now. It should be, obviously, redirected to "Olimp (disambiguation)". However, I hesitate to create this redirect without checking with you first, since you deleted the previous version of the page.radek (talk) 22:36, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- Sure thing... let's get it back up. Jmlk17 05:40, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
DECOBIKE
[edit]hello,:Hey there Frank. I'd recommend checking out a couple guidelines here. Also, Velib and Bicing are massive programs in enormous cities involving thousands of bikes. This is not to say DecoBike is not the same... just perhaps not as well-known? You are obviously more than welcome to edit and create articles here on notable organizations. I'd recommend finding a few, good, concrete sources discussing the program. Along the lines of government releases and stories, large news organizations with info, etc. I totally believe in the bike sharing cause myself (we have a couple programs in the city I live in and I LOVE them), and I'd offer a hand however I may. To save your article from being deleted again, try working on it in a personal use space like User:Frank33139/DecoBike. Personal spaces like that are the ideal area to work on something to help bring it up to snuff before you actually publish it for the world to see. Hope all is well, hope this helps a bit, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. Jmlk17 18:05, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
thanks for the feedback. i think with some additional work on it to bring in more sources is a good way to proceed for me.

Thanks in advance. Ashish Solanki SEO (talk) 07:11, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
- Sure thing. First off, welcome! Secondly, check out our notability guidelines. That should help clear up a few issues. Jmlk17 07:14, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes I did, and i still don't see the problem (Dmoney408 (talk) 09:32, 21 July 2010 (UTC))
- Your gang is almost certainly not notable. You mention it being almost a house-hold name at a certain high school... that does not make it a notable organization. Furthermore, your edit summary "(This is a low-key gang growing in the Yay Area. Fo'ty Fo's Fo Life)" may show a conflict of interest. Sorry, but a "gang" that occupies no mention in the media that no one has heard of is probably not notable. Jmlk17 18:28, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
Deletion of new page Heidi Julia Bender
[edit]Hello -
I note you've deleted the page Heidi Julia Bender because "Article about a real person, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject".
Please note at the bottom of the page there's a note from the International Astronomical Union that says, "Heidi is the only child for whom a crater on Venus has been named. While she doesn't have the quantity of substantial works of other authors and artists, the USGS and the IAU recognized that a child who accomplishes so much in such a short time under such duress, and has had such a positive effect on so many people, is famous indeed."
This is a 10-year-old child we're talking about, who has provided many people with incredible inspiration. I respectfully request that you reconsider your rejection of this page, with suggestions for its improvement. Thank you.
Hjbender1 (talk) 13:35, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- I understand her significance within the IAU, but in the end, does she truly satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines? If she truly does, an article is obviously more than welcome. But within other and outside research, it just may appear that she does not. Jmlk17 20:17, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
I believe she does satisfy Wikipedia's notability guidelines. For example, your definition of "notability" is
A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published[3] secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent,[4] and independent of the subject.
Under "Additional Criteria" you continue with "A person is generally notable if they meet any of the following standards." and under #1 "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times."
In Heidi's case, she's the only child so honored, for reasons the United States Geological Survey (who nominated her) and the International Astronomical Union (who approved her) felt were sufficient to make her notable.
Please note that this information is linked from the U.S. Geological Survey and the Lunar and Planetary Institute, both of which are Wikipedia references.
More to the point, Wikipedia lists the Venus craters, including Heidi's (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_craters_on_Venus#B), and she is one of the few names on your list without a biographical link. I'd like to correct that, with your support. Hjbender1 (talk) 23:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- It certainly seems that Heidi just may belong on here. My recommendation it to recreate the article in a personal page area such at User:Hjbender1/Sandbox and get it polished up, and then publish it as an article again. If you have any concerns or questions, I'd be more than happy to help. Jmlk17 18:29, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
I'll be happy to do that. I'm new to Wikipedia page construction so I'll have to learn that method. Also, could I have access to my original page? I put a fair amount of work into it and a lot of it should be suitable for my next (better) effort. I thought it would remain under my userid, but that was deleted too, and I didn't keep a copy of it on my computer.
Thanks! 96.231.149.245 (talk) 18:45, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
- Done. I put the article in your User:Hjbender1/Sandbox personal space. Hope this helps! Jmlk17 17:40, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
Excellent! Thanks! I'll be working to improve it to Wiki's standards. 96.231.149.245 (talk) 19:20, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
I've (hopefully) improved the Heidi Julia Bender page, which you'll find in my Sandbox. Could you please look at it and offer suggestions? If it looks OK, I'd like to put it on Wiki and point the Venus crater listing to it. Thanks! Hjbender1 (talk) 17:02, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I can't figure out how to copy the new article in my Sandbox into the main Wikipedia. Please advise. Thanks! Hjbender1 (talk) 02:39, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
- All you should have to do is copy/paste the information into the article again. Try Heidi Julia Bender. Jmlk17 06:37, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

Furiae Cult in Cuchara
[edit]I was looking at the Cuchara, Colorado entry and saw "Cuchara is locally famous for a number of notable paranormal and supernatural sightings. Most of these sightings focus around the legend of Robert A. Leger, who became notorious for founding the short-lived Furiae cult, who were based in south-central Colorado in the early 20th century." and looked for anything about said cult, since I have never heard of anything like that growing up near there and saw that you had deleted the article as a hoax. I was wondering if you might be so good as to edit the Cuchara entry as well, thanks.209.94.91.10 (talk) 23:56, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Deleted OS/VS2 article had been intended as disambiguation
[edit]The article OS/VS2 had been intended as a disambiguation page to distinguish OS/VS2 (SVS) and OS/VS2 (MVS). When I saw the speedy delete message I realized that I had not correctly formatted it. What is the proper procedure to restore the page so that I can edit it into the correct format for disambiguation? Thanks. Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 12:37, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello! The sudden influx of vandalism occurred because of humorous comments made by Ferguson on last night's edition of his talk show ("You look up my name on Wikipedia, it'll say I have three testicles and a wooden knee. Which is ridiculous—I have three wooden testicles."). Unless he reiterates this joke (or something similar), long-term semi-protection should not be needed. —David Levy 17:07, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Unprotection request
[edit]Hi Jmlk17. Thanks again for protecting the article Joran van der Sloot. After some discussion there, consensus is that unprotection would be a good idea because the prospects for disruption appear minimal and if it reoccurs it can be enforced by a block. So when you find some time you could unprotect the article if you also agree. Thanks again and take care. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 14:30, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
- Anytime Dr. K.! The article has been unprotected. I hope it all works out for you guys... if you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask. Jmlk17 17:37, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

207.237.243.185 (talk) 09:25, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- No, an edit like [3] this one is personal opinion violating WP:POV issues on Wikipedia. Jmlk17 16:23, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- You think the fact that the hostage crisis in Iran made JC look weak and helpless is a "personal opinion"? It is an historical fact, which everyone who remembers the 1980 campaign remembers. Are you old enough to remember 1980? Don't you remember there was an abortive rescue attempt, in which two of USA's helicopters crashed into each other? The hostage crisis made JC appear incompetent as commander-in-chief of the military and hurt his re-election campaign very badly.
- In any event, my entering that fact was an honest mistake on my part (I still dispute that it's "personal opinion"), not an attempt to vandalize. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.237.243.185 (talk) 01:16, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Regulate (song) protection
[edit]Anonymous edits, is that what "vandalism" means now on WP? I didn't think so. WP:WAE. Just because I don't feel like logging in doesn't make me a vandal. Vandalism is defined by the character of the edits, not the status of the user. It grinds my gears the rash, brain-dead way admins act these days. C'est la change, I guess. - 174.46.204.210 (talk) 18:57, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Man, you should read WP:AGF asap. I never once said your edits were vandalism, and never once accused you of anything. It grinds my gears the way people automatically assume a deletion, protection, etc. revolves around them, without checking a bit more into the background of the issue(s). Next time, please check the page history first. Maybe check out WP:RFPP for a bit more information as well. But let's start with WP:AGF... a good start. Jmlk17 19:01, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
Well I apologize for being mistaken. But if I could see any vandalism in the recent history before my edits, and if I hadn't been the only editor in the 90 minutes before you semiprotected, I wouldn't have assumed it was my edits you were protecting against. I didn't see any vandalism pointed out. - 174.46.204.210 (talk) 16:14, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
KVIrc page deleted
[edit]Hi! I have noticed that you deleted the page for the KVIrc IRC client [4] with the concern "Third party references showing notability have been requested for six months or longer". The client is included in all major linux distributions (see [5] for instance) just like the other clients that still have the wikipedia page (see ircle or XChat for instance). A simple google query will return a bunch of third party references showing notability. Can we bring it back? Pragma (talk) 05:57, 03 Aug 2010 (GMT+1)
- I would be more than happy to, but the article would/does definitely need some work. Would you like me to restore the article into a personal userpage, so that you could edit it and polish it up before it is restored to the actual site? As it stands now, the article just doesn't present enough notability. Jmlk17 07:01, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a deletion review of AraPacis. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review.

Hello. I write this message to inform you about the behaviour of the blocked User:Stubes99. In spite of his ban, he continues with ease vandalazing articles. Aa it can be seen in his block log, on 11 August the initial 2 weeks block was extended by your colleague JamesBWatson for "further block evasion and vandalism" (he evaded through annonymus IPs and the account User:Stears555)
But unfortunately, that did not stop him and he keeps defying the rules. He evades with nonchalance his block and attacked the following articles:
- On Long campaign artcle he adds information had have as a source an internet site: [6] (IP: 84.2.217.6, 14 august)
- Through the IP 81.183.185.244 he tries to continue his old dispute about genetics on Hungary talk page

- With the IP 78.92.107.119 he attacked other favourite article (Ányos Jedlik - now protected for excessive sockpuppetry) and again Hungary talk page (12 August)
- Lajos Kossuth: After editing with the IP 84.2.20.115 on 11 August he came again here on 16 August, with the IP 84.2.217.98
Can you please extend User:Stubes99 1 month block? It would be also useful to protect Lajos Kossuth against his attacks (some article were already protected to keep him away: Hungary, Ányos Jedlik, Louis I of Hungary) (79.117.156.51 (talk) 06:45, 18 August 2010 (UTC))
Church of the Holy Sepulchre
[edit]Hello Jmlk17, in this edit you wrote that the church is within the legal and internationally recognized borders of Israel. The Church is in East Jerusalem east of the Green Line. What evidence do you have that it is within " the legal and internationally recognized borders of Israel"? Also, Israel does not have a "legal and internationally recognized borders" with the Palestinian territories or with Syria. The closest thing to "borders" that Israel has are the lines drawn up in the 1949 Armistice agreements. The territory that Israel holds outside of those boundaries are considered by the UN, the ICRC, and nearly every state on the planet to be held in a state of belligerent occupation. East Jerusalem and the Church are not within what is recognized as Israeli territory. Could you please revert your edit and join the discussion on the talk page? Thanks, nableezy - 17:39, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- My mistake. I misinterpreted. Jmlk17 17:54, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

AraPacis
[edit]I could have fixed your objection about importance quite easily as AraPacis is a significant player in the Montreal music scene and has been for quite some time. Furthermore, those involved in the band, specifically Jerry Fielden, basically built said scene. But how do I add this information now that the page is deleted? I know it's "speedy deletion", but at least give people the chance to improve your perceived criticisms. Matthew Cadrin (talk) 18:37, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- Also, I was reading the "Speedy Deletion" policy, why wasn't I notified that a page I created was set for deletion, as suggested by the policy? I'm less upset by the page deletion than I am with the arbitrariness of the action taken and the lack of recourse to appeal; especially considering it was a decent article, no featured article to be sure, but not a one-liner stub. Thinking more on importance, I realize there is a subjective component. To you, AraPacis is not important, yet a segment of Montreal would vocally disagree. Why does your opinion of importance matter more than theirs? Matthew Cadrin (talk) 18:47, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- My opinion is no more important than anyone else on the site. All I was doing was working on administration backlogs. From the page, an issue with notability caused the deletion. Check out that page for a bit more info, and we can go from there, either with a restoration of the page, or perhaps a deletion review. Jmlk17 19:12, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- Hi there, I'm noticing that the AraPacis page (which I didn't create but did keep up to date) keeps getting deleted despite our band (yes, I'll be up front, I'm the guitarist) having 2 albums out, being on several compilations and being talked about in the news of the 2 most important metal web zines on the Web. Could you please restore it. Thank you! Slugguitar (talk) 20:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
- Please restore this page, thanks! More details on BW&BK http://www.bravewords.com/news/151036 64.56.226.32 (talk) 02:02, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Please tell me that when you removed the bad report from AIV that you at least read it and acted to revert the vandalism. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 18:39, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Baobab (software) deletion
[edit]Hi,
Baobab (software) got deleted by you, after some notability warning was put up for some time on it. I'm not saying that it is or isn't notable enough, but it did raise 2 questions: - what is 'suggestion software'? - instead of just deleting the content, it would have made sense to incorporate (some) content into the article on Disk space analyzer, which is a stub and could use more information. You didn't do so, but maybe you got some good reason not to? I'm curious.
have a nice day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.1.224.196 (talk) 20:21, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi! This is not proper use of the rollback feature. WP:Rollback does not mention "good faith" or "AGF". The rollback feature should only be used for doing obvious vandalism, not for reverting any good faith edits. Otherwise, you may be taking a risk of loosing your rollback rights. /HeyMid (contributions) 18:21, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- They'd be taking my admin rights away too then. Jmlk17 18:22, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- Also, see here. Jmlk17 18:24, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- That is not relevant to what I wrote to you, I have read the section you link to above. /HeyMid (contributions) 18:29, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- Sounds good. Jmlk17 18:30, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- It's pretty darn relevant. Besides, the edit was unsourced, unencyclopedic, and had been previously reverted. Jmlk17 18:41, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- Just so you know, I am not an admin, so I can't judge on whether you should be blocked or not for that. /HeyMid (contributions) 19:42, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

- And I never said that either... /HeyMid (contributions) 20:24, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
- There is no reason why rollback wasn't perfectly acceptable to use under the circumstances. Don't forget that the person involved ignored a warning and recreated previously reverted content. Heymid, while your zeal is commendable, think of all the other things you could have done with the time spent quibbling over the minutia of a irrelevant situation.

The Arts Music Store - deletion
[edit]Hello,
I was asked by the owner of the company to write a brief history of the company since I have personally been part of it since it's beginning. I removed the context of the music school and added the relevance that it's a Canadian Music store that's been in business for over 26 years and according to CMT magazine (our trade magazine) it's now in the Top 10 financially largest Music Stores 2009. Since we receive inquiries from all over the world on a daily basis, he figured that a brief history of the business would be good for our customers.
I hope this article now meets your specifications. Please let me know If I've overlooked anything, I kept it as 3rd person and non-biased as possible.

Do you speak spanish? You are using a plural. You wouldn't say shrimps tacos would you? Please don't assume all edits are vandalism.

You keep putting a redirect to natural thing economy, either leave it at the article until someone writes a proper one or write the proper one yourself or you can give an external link to the Venus Project website page on the Resource Based Economy.

The Zeitgeist Movement
[edit]I've been skimming over the talk page. Most of the editors' main concern seems to be whether or not the content 'is beneficial to the movement' and 'describes the official position of The Zeitgeist Movement.' Critical viewpoints have also been repeatedly deleted. Looking through the history, most of the edits are from users who have never edited other articles, or only closely related articles. I believe that a major Conflict of Interest is going on, and I feel it should be brought to attention. Zazaban (talk) 19:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

- Do you mean Red Wolf (disambiguation)? Why does the article about the Red Wolf have the title Red wolf (lowercase)? It's the proper name of a wolf same as Red Poll is the name of a cattle breed. Moriori (talk) 04:09, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
- That's why I'm here; Jmlk17 just changed that "W" to lower case, giving the reason that it was an "uncontavercial" move. Apparantly not! Chrisrus (talk) 04:15, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

- Whatever about that, the point is any change made to the titles of red wolf and red wolf talk should not mess up red wolf (disambig), to be careful about that page too. Chrisrus (talk) 15:01, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

I've seen translations, and that was pretty close. However, it was typed poorly (which I could improve upon), gave no reference (which I could), but is it even appropriate to have the entire text in the article (I'm not so sure)? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 21:42, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

There are dozens of sources our there for the translations, and some great ones that take you through the tapestry and translate the latin as you go. Jmlk17 21:44, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
- It's the translation of my own contribution from french article[14]
- Don't be disturbed by the "telegraphic" style; it's the style of the tapestry it self (like incipit in books).
- I can propose 1 reference : Andrew Bridgeford (trad. Béatrice Vierne), 1066, l’histoire secrète de la tapisserie de Bayeux, Éditiond du Rocher, coll. « Anatolia », 2004 (réimpr. 2005) (ISBN 2-268-05528-0)
- I typed it exactly like in the tapestry (typed poorly), perhaps it have any sens perhaps not; I don't know.

I think that the speed of your deletion, is connected to the unusual aspect of the typography and to the "telegraphic" style of the text (which could evoke vandalism). The initial request of source seemed to me unappropriate : the source is the tapestry itself ! The translation does not generally need source (there's a difference between the initial document (which can need source), and his translation which generally don't need).
About the presence of this section, I think that your reaction is the proof of its necessity: where can we find on internet this transcription with the exact typography. Maybe this typography have a sense, maybe not. Who know's ? For the moment I read no work to this subject, but the history of sciences is full of discoveries based on the observation of abnormalities, considered until then as errors or artefacts. In the French article this part raised no problem.
I think that I gave the precisions which were initially asked. Can you undo your the removal ? Or do you prefer that I'll put this section again, myself, with the asked precisions ? Thanks --Qqchose2sucre (talk) 08:48, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
- Up to you. A quick google search gives numerous sources of translations by the way. Jmlk17 17:03, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
- Ok I'll put it in a lower rank of the summary. What do you think about including the whole tapestry jpeg like in the french article : wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Tapisserie_de_Bayeux_31109.jpg . Thanks. Qqchose2sucre (talk) 06:21, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jmlk17
I'm wondering why you reverted without comment my removal (which was accompanied by an explanatory edit summary) of the {{recent death}} template from the above-captioned article. As you know, the template is only for articles that are currently being heavily edited. The article has been edited by 65 editors in the past 24 hours--and the editing was very heavy for the first several hours after the subject's death. However, in the past several hours the editing has slowed to a level far below the threshold indicated by the template instructions.
Thanks, Bongomatic 01:20, 6 September 2010 (UTC) Should you wish to reply, please do so here. I will watch this page for a few days, so no {{talkback}} or other comment on my talk page is required.
- My apologies. I had a few different windows open, and didn't see your removal of the template right before I added it. Thank you for the heads up. Jmlk17 07:01, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- No worries--just wanted to know if there was a message there! Tx. Bongomatic 05:15, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
- Much obliged :) Jmlk17 05:17, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Thank you for your good humor. The average WP user could use a lighter attitude like yours. Cheers :) Efcmagnew (talk) 00:43, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
- Absolutely, and thank you! It gets way too serious around here sometimes, and people just need to learn how to not take everything so incredibly seriously! Jmlk17 17:37, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

Empty Headz

I'd really like my page back please It might not seem much to you, but it does to me And i hadn't fully finished applying the information if it was more so because it wasnt completed.

- (talk page stalker) Hi Lottie. I don't know for sure, but I can guess why (I've looked at the deleted article): the article you created didn't mention why the band are "significant or notable" - it just listed band members and genres. Take a look at this guideline for bands - it shows how we assess that a band is notable enough for a Wikipedia article. I'd recommend creating an article in your "userspace", for example at User:Lanky larza/Empty Headz, and then running it past other editors (Jmlk17, for example, or me) before you move the article into "article space". I'll leave it to Jmlk17 to discuss getting the information back to you. TFOWR 17:07, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Re: Curious
[edit]All i meant, was he's unnecessarily hostile towards people who have done nothing more than made un-notable edits, which should be taken as good faith.
I'm not suggesting that we do anything rash with him, but i'd like it if he could be a little cooler headed. He near enough threatens me in a great display of egotistical rankism on my talk page if you need an example —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kill me when i die (talk • contribs) 23:18, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
Hiya
[edit]I saw your comment over at WP:UAA, to avoid a situation like this I was wondering if you could add Gamecock to the whitelist? Thanks, Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм | Champagne? 09:59, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
- Good idea, thanks! Jmlk17 17:44, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

thanks
[edit]Thanks for the semi-protection on the Cribbing (horse) article. However, if you could be so kind as to watchlist it because a lot of the trouble is not coming from anon IPs, but registered users...may need to lock it down tighter until this little run of fun has finished its 15 minutes of fame... :-P Montanabw(talk) 23:00, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
- Anytime, always glad to help. I added it to my watchlist when I instated the protection; but here's to hoping the IPs will find something else to do out there. :) Jmlk17 23:01, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
