[edit] Your Premature Deletion

I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. Deleting the Baltimore's Marching Ravens page for plagiarism? I'm the copy editor for the band, and that content is being used on several pages. I don't think I need your permission to do that, for two reasons: it's OUR content to do what we want with, and Wikipedia is NOT considered an academic source so why it needs all original content to be considered relevant is beyond me. I'm interested to hear your reasoning here. User:Jgaffney at 016:49, December 19, 2007 —Preceding comment was added at 21:50, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 00:21, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism warnings regarding Elmo

Hi. I noticed a couple of warnings you issued today, to 72.235.68.104 and 24.60.218.3, apparently for vandalism to Elmo today. You also reported 24..60.218.3 on AIV for vandalism to Elmo. Looking at the changelog for Elmo it doesn't seem that either of those anons (or indeed anyone else) has edited Elmo today and, in fact, the article has been semiprotected since 27th November anyway. I see you're using Twinkle. Is there a bug in it, leading to spurious warnings being placed? Tonywalton  | Talk 14:54, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Gotcha. It's worth remembering though that these are shared IP addresses; the person using that IP address for vandalism two or three days ago may well not be the person using it today, or in six weeks time if no-one's using that address today. In the case of 24..60.218.3 they just got themselves blocked anyway, for this. Cheers Tonywalton  | Talk 15:22, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your Rfa

I just wanted to wish you good luck on your Rfa. Your probably won't succeed in it, but don't let that get your spirits down. My Rfa was rejected, however, I plan on running again sometime. Good luck!! Dustihowe (talk) 18:11, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent RfA

I'm sorry, but I've closed your Request for adminship prematurely. Simply put, you've only got 142 edits on Wikipedia; while edit count isn't the only determining factor, and numerous people have their own personal standards that they judge RfA candidates by, there was no chance that the RfA was going to pass.

I'm sorry about this, and hope you don't take it personally. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I'm confident that you could possibly run a successful RfA in the future. You may want to consider submitting yourself to Wikipedia:Editor review for feedback on where to get some good experience, and when you're ready for RfA again, there's a great Wikipedia:Admin coaching program for you to use, as well as a guide to requests for adminship.

If you have any other questions about becoming an administrator, please don't hesitate to ask me. Good luck! EVula // talk // // 19:23, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
