Hi, the deletion review closed with "Non delete closure endorsed. The discussion below doesn't show a clear consensus for or against the merge, but that can be hashed out editorially" which I would think means that a merger should be discussed before doing so. That's why I removed the redirect. Thoughts? Hobit (talk) 01:06, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I don't understand your response. Could you explain what the closer meant by "The discussion below doesn't show a clear consensus for or against the merge, but that can be hashed out editorially". My reading is that the merger discussion should occur editorially, not that the merger was endorsed. Could you explain how you are reading it? Thanks, Hobit (talk) 01:22, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think I understand what you are saying, but one of us is mis-reading the closer's comments. I'll ask for clarification. Thanks! Hobit (talk) 01:27, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, sorry to butt in, but I can't find a deletion review, or any indication that there was one. (Had I known, I would have contributed.) Can you just point me to it so I can read it? Thanks! --Karen | Talk | contribs03:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that was fast! But it's not there, unless somehow it';s hidden from me. Listed are: Yo, Retarded Animal Babies, Institute of Design IIT, Steve_Pavlina, and List of fonts by Ray Larabie. No Back to the Future timeline. It didn't turn up on previous or next day, either. Am I going mad? --Karen | Talk | contribs04:08, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. My intention in closing the DRV was to channel further discussion on to talk pages rather than deletion related fora since actual deletion was no longer on the table. Given the state of the discussion I would say that the merge should be considered an editorial decision on the part of the closer rather than an official decision. Still it has substantial support and probably shouldn't be reverted absent further discussion. Eluchil404 (talk) 00:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Daleks in Manhattan.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Daleks in Manhattan.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:18, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, I've noticed him too (see his talk page, and his message to me, which made me laugh out loud). Everything, absolutely everything his is tagging, is related to Slovenia. It's some kind of nationalist pissing contest, but I can't figure out what the heck he thinks he's accomplishing with the mass tagging. Antandrus (talk)00:22, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The user in question has 364 edits and has been editing since November 9. Blocking the user for a user name policy, imo, would not serve to help the 'pedia. If someone feels that the user name should be changed, then I think going and asking the user would be better than blocking him/her. I hope this explains my opinion.

Name change for Screw/Bolt article to Screw
I'm not sure why you did this. I was the one that changed the title to Screw/Bolt because the article is about screws and bolts and not the other uses of the term screw. It might have started as a general article about all the various meanings of screw but it is not that now. There are several other articles that deal with the term screw in a more general sense. Your comment made it seem like you preferred Screw/bolt because of capitalization. Is that correct? Perhaps you would have preferred Screws and Bolts as the title to the article?
Hello, I just received your note about reverting the edits I made to this page. In fact I did use the edit summary box, and would like to ask that you undo your revision as I do feel it was constructive from a critical and scholarly point of view. The content goes DIRECTLY to territorial integrity, and furthermore it was an official and public statement by a government official relating a critical an crucial aspect of the history of the region, providing the essence for understanding the depth of the difficulty, and which is historically verifyable and correct. Thanks for the input, but I kindly ask you revert your edit to the addition I made. Please respond. Regards,

re: switchfoot revert
Hi, I am new here and don't know if I am even talking to you correctly, so forgive me if I am wrong.
I believe my switchfoot page edit was constructive. I filled in the edit summary to try to explain that. I own and run the website www.Learning2Breathe.com, which is where the lyrics and song-stories are linked up to (on the main Switchfoot page, and other related pages). I would simply like others to know that there is more to my website than just the lyrics. I thought my edit was a solution. Please let me know if I am violating some rule with this. --Concretegirl2 (talk) 04:15, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
thank you
Thank you for the information, I wasn't aware of that. However, I did not choose to put my lyrics and song-stories on the page in the first place. I am happy to be of help, just thought I would direct others to the rest of my site in the process.
On a similar note, I was wondering why there are NO fansites in the External Links. Is it possible to add a sub-category in the External Links for fansites? I know of a couple that update regularly and are nice quality. --Concretegirl2 (talk) 04:20, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE:AFD
Semi-serious? Delete rickroll? I'll have no part in that. :P Also, I could've sworn The Game was passed through AFD as a delete consensus... humph. Oh, and instead of having the image I made you be tiny, how about I make it into a banner? The disadvantage is it wouldn't necessarily always be the width of the page (as different viewers have different resolutions), but you could probably center it or something... Anyway, I could just crop out a wider, shorter piece. Cheers, Master of PuppetsCall me MoP! :)02:33, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As for the image; if you want to remove the ones that are there now, I'll upload a new version. I don't want to upload now, since I don't want to hunt through your userspace, and if I didn't remove them the large width would blow up the page.

thanks very much for sending me the Dr. Who newsletter. i really appreciate it. however, one small note; my user name happens to be Sm8900, not SM9800.

Your change to remove speculation over the 1/2 dalek on the Series Four page was correct. The justification should have been POV speculation. Davros clearly fits the description. He was of course a Kaled that evolved into The Emperor. This supposed fact of his return should not appear in wikipedia until a reliable source can be quoted. --Brian R Hunter (talk) 18:41, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes indeed. In Remembrance of the Daleks he is not humanoid. But the unnamed episode is rumoured to include a return to Skaro, so Davros is likely to be in his earlier incarnation. This looks to be another superb series, I'm happy to wait and see but others will always want to speculate. Keep up the good work. --Brian R Hunter (talk) 18:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I see what you mean. But the speculation was to what had been seen the shadows. The villain had the bottom half of a Dalek, while its top half looked like it could be human[2]. This is exactly what Davros looked like albeit quite horribly scarred and crippled . The Doctor of course does not refer to any Daleks as part-human as this would assign emotional characteristics they do not have. --Brian R Hunter (talk) 19:06, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I…um…learned from Elara. ;) It's interesting, because sometimes (as you've noticed) I use slightly looser language on the net than I would in real life, but in real life I only swear when, well for example if somebody was threatening my daughter or sister or mother or pretty much anyone in my family, I would likely lose it and indulge my taste for the verbal colour palette. Apart from that, any young kids could listen to what I say during the course of my day. — $PЯINGεrαgђ 18:29 8 April, 2008 (UTC) P.S. I liked your reference to Mengele, very appropriate. ;) I only said Hitler because the vandal put his name up there. :P
Please remember that rollback should only be used to revert obvious vandalism. Using it to revert edits that are the subject of a content dispute, like this revert, isn't appropriate. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 11:53, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Doctor Who/Davros
Have you ever being involved in Doctor Who episodes? The only way to get the point across is to R(B)I anyone who puts in these inane rumours, as it gets beyond a joke. Hell, I've violated 3RR many times on List of Doctor Who serials (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) just to keep it at featured list quality (I don't know how the hell I hoodwinked everyone into getting
it promoted). Sceptre(talk)11:55, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've seen it come up increasingly on WP:RFPP lately. I've protected Doctor Who (series 4) until after Saturday's episode, which should hopefully help. But you don't get a free pass over 3RR because they're featured, good, or because he's the Doctor, or because he's a Time Lord, or because he's from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous, or because he's 903 years old, or etc. Just like every other currently-running series, people are going to try and put in the most current information. Stifle (talk) 12:01, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is a shame it had to be protected as it still needs some copy-edit work. It can be hard constantly educating editors that speculation and POV does not belong in wikipedia. Sceptre, do not be discouraged, you do a lot of very useful work. The only advice I can offer is to engage those misinformed editors on the articles talk page, you will be backed in your efforts to keep the quality high. We need to distinguish the real vandals from those who just get it wrong. Keep taking those deep breaths and allow others to help you. --Brian R Hunter (talk) 12:17, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
FreeContentMeta and derivatives
Best take this up with you instead of the mostly unwatched Template talk:FreeContentMeta - there's really no reason for the boxes to be that shade of green. It's immediately eye-grabbing against the faint blues, greys, and whites of normal backgrounds. I know the need to disambiguate sister projects and free wikis, but this is the wrong way to do it: we should be advertising our wikis first. I've edited the DW wikia box as a bold test to make it look different but not too different: see Template:TardisIndexFile. Thanks, Sceptre(talk)18:36, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't particularly care what color is used, provided that it stands out from the shade of grey used for the sister project templates. Your new attempt is a step in the right direction (compared to your previous attempt), but I still don't think that the distinction is obvious enough unless the two boxes are viewed side-by-side.
Incidentally, while I appreciate the desire to promote free-content wikis in general, I'm not entirely sold on the idea of allowing these boxes to exist for non-sister projects (and I definitely agree that the Wikimedia sites should come first). Alternatives have been proposed. —David Levy18:57, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nishidani has a history of disrupting conversation with 19,000 char off topic comments that usually use anti-Zionist sources and anti-Israel soapbox to boot (sometimes accompanied by bigoted comments also). Since he is not a party to discussions and his commentary was completely off topic, I believe it would be best to remove this offtopic commentary. To clarify, non relevant information is a common disruption. Regardless, I consider you to have final descision on this subject, now that I've clarified it.

MfD Close
Good substantive close but bad technical ;-). You need to add {{subst:mfd bottom}} to the bottom of the discussion page, the purple background now goes all the way to the bottom of the MfD page! Also, you really should put "(non-admin closing)" right before your signature. Also, don't forget to remove the MfD tag and place an old mfd tag on the talk page. I'll give you a few minutes to fix them and if I don't see anything I'll take care of it. Cheers.--Doug.(talk • contribs)14:05, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't realize that you'd been an admin before, so that this was more likely a goof than lack of knowledge of the process. Sorry. I fixed the mfd bottom and removed the mfd tag from the nominated page. Obviously since this is a redirect we can't put mfd old on it very well, so that point is moot. You still should add (non-admin close) though. Cheers.--Doug.(talk • contribs)14:19, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
