[edit] Gears of War Criticism

Regarding Gears of War Criticism, please see my comments in Talk:Gears of War#Criticism. --Rodzilla 06:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC) Note I am merely posting this here as you deleted the section whilst it was in a back-and-forth struggle. I just noticed that you already posted on the talk page and as such are probably aware of the situation. Please see Wikipedia:Edit war if you are unfamiliar with the problem.

[edit] Ronaldo stats

Why do we need so many breakdowns. We especially don't need assists in the table. Kingjeff 16:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

You can at least combine the domestic cup stats. It's clearly too wide. Why does the table need assist? Are you going to add assists to every player stats table? Kingjeff 18:17, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Combining the domestic cup stats sounds fair enough. Why does the table not need assists? Manderiko 05:56, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Anyway I've trimmed the table -- acceptable compromise. Manderiko 06:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Google as a source for Vince Carter revision

The question is: has Vince Carter been called "Wince Carter" with any incidence or frequency?

The answer is: Yes, he has.

The proof is: if you do a Google search, you will see not a few but many instances of this.

By comparison, if you do a google search for "Wince Duncan" or "Wince Bryant" or "Wince Manderiko" you will not find any suggestion that such a term has been used with any frequency.

This really is simple. He has that nickname. Richard Hamilton doesn't. Gilbert Arenas doesn't. Carmelo Anthony doesn't. Vince Carter does. Why argue a simple fact? And should a simple fact NOT be reflected in an "encyclopedia"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.72.4.1 (talk) 16:43, 24 April 2007 (UTC).

You don't get it do you. People have explained to you many times to no avail, so I won't try either. Manderiko 03:49, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Carioca RFA

Thanks for your support on my request for adminship.

The final outcome was (31/4/1), so I am now an administrator. If you have any comments or concerns on my actions as an administrator, please let me know. Thank you! --Carioca 20:28, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA

Many thanks for your support at my RFA. It ended successfully and I am now a glorified janitor. If I can be of any assistance please don't hesitate to contact me through my talk page. Happy editing! —Ocatecir Talk 18:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] wiki links...

Hello again. Sorry if i annoyed you yesterday about the wiki linking (ie, on Sydney. I think it is an important issue though, and I will look into it. It was an issue on an FAC nomination i was working on (ie, Indonesia). I don't have much time to investigate and/or discuss right now but I just wanted to drop a note to say 'no hard feelings'. I'll be in touch. kind regards and happy editing. --Merbabu 05:36, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Sure no hard feelings. Thank you for being magnanimous. The relevant policies, if you haven't seen them before but I doubt it, are here. Happy editing. Manderiko 20:02, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

for your utmost valuable input and making it all a better place eh. Chensiyuan 20:31, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chris Bosh

i think you should stop deleting my triva facts. Because there facts about Chris Bosh. Why can't you let people know more about him?

Some people may be interested in it.

So leave the stuff there.

Some people may be interested in you stop this nonsense. Manderiko 15:56, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Halloween

Manderikiko, without commenting on anything else in the post above, there is nothing stopping you from removing any thing from your talk page, although admittedly some editors don't like it. There is no policy against it. Talk pages are for providing messages, and the the fact that you remove it suggests you have read it. Merbabu 09:52, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
Suggests you have read it. Really? Simple example, my username is staring right at you but you spelled it wrong. Manderiko 14:46, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, I'm a shit speller. My point was simple and specific - don't let anyone bully you by insisting you can't remove content from your user page. You can; in fact, if you remove content, it clearly shows you have read it. :-) That's all - i was trying to help. cheers. Merbabu 10:50, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for clarifying. Good day. Manderiko 13:33, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

Thank you for your support in my recent RfA. However, it was unsuccessful. I am in no way disheartened, and I will hopefully succeed in a month or two. If you have any further suggestions or comments, feel free to drop me a line on my talk page, and I will be happy to respond. Matt/TheFearow (Talk) (Contribs) (Bot) 02:32, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] James Milner FAC

Ok I've tried to improve the flow of the article. But for other issues I need more info before I can do anything (if I choose to do anything at all). Please see the FAC page. Buc 20:43, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

It'd be helpful if you could return to the FAC page for Milner and clarify if you're happy with Buc's amendments and are prepared to support or not. Thanks. --Dweller 08:18, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

You're obviously busy but when you have the time check this again. Buc 19:52, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Global Vision Christian School

A Proposed Deletion template has been added to the article Global Vision Christian School, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page. B. Wolterding 17:48, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TLA

Apologies for the style and grammatical errors in TLA.

Shouldn't a reference, even if suspicious, be shown? Wouldn't it be proper if it's clearly stated to be alleged? Palladion (talk) 16:05, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Well thank you for taking it here. You see, as far as I know, yes Wikipedia is not in the business of truth but "verifiability", but at the same time the source surely must be reliable. I take your point about qualifying it as "alleged", but I still stand by "if the ref ain't good enough it just ain't good enough". Manderiko (talk) 16:08, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] James Milner

You Opposed this articles nomination a while back due to it's prose. I wondered if you could give it another look when you can find the time. Would it be worth re-nominating. Buc (talk) 20:31, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Let Tony do his thing. Manderiko (talk) 15:31, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
I don't know what that means. Buc (talk) 15:57, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
Hasn't he been roped in to copyedit the article? I'd wait for that to be done, first. Manderiko (talk) 03:51, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Not that I know of. I wished he'd get on with it if he has. Buc (talk) 06:47, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

How about giving it a look now it has just had a ce. Buc (talk) 17:08, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
