Hi, you might have missed the benefit of using the Wikipedia:Changing_username/Simple process rather than creating a new account. With the username change you can carry-over your previous edit history and watchlist, this also means that other editors can see your past track record which may or may not be a good thing depending on your preferences. Note that you always have the option of a Clean start should you prefer that option and you are not required to explain your previous track record.

On 1 December 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Dudesnude, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that twink gay porn star Tory Mason was discovered through his dudesnude profile? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

It appears that you may not have completed the steps for your proposed AfD of this article, because there doesn't seem to be any page currently in existence called Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Salesian High School (Richmond, California). If you wish to proceed with this, you may need to fix the problem. Before you do so, however, I'd respectfully suggest that you withdraw the AfD instead. Mainstream high schools in the U.S. are always kept at AfD, even when the pages have very little in the way of content or sources, as long as there's some form of verification of their existence. Please see Wikipedia:Notability (high schools) and WP:OUTCOMES#Education. This article is packed with sources, the school is very well-known, and it's hard to imagine that there'd be substantial support for deleting the article. Of course, you are free to proceed as you see fit. --Arxiloxos (talk) 03:04, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-08T03:04:00.000Z","author":"Arxiloxos","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Arxiloxos-2010-12-08T03:04:00.000Z-Salesian_High_School_(Richmond,_California)","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, I noticed that your current signature doesn't seem to include any link to your User page, Talk page, or contributions page. This makes it more difficult for other editors to identify you and to respond to your messages. Please note that the Wikipedia behavioral guideline at WP:SIGLINK states: "Signatures must include at least one internal link to your user page, user talk page, or contributions page; this allows other editors easy access to your talk page and contributions log. The lack of such a link is widely viewed as obstructive."

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits.

When content is disputed, please cease making changes and focus instead on discussion. For your proposed content to be retained in the article you must persuade interested editors that it compiles with Wikipedia's key policies. Continuing to make disputed changes while discussion is underway decreases your credibility, violates many of our communication practices, and just generally makes our volunteer editors less motivated. —EncMstr (talk) 22:48, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-08T22:48:00.000Z","author":"EncMstr","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-EncMstr-2010-12-08T22:48:00.000Z-Wikidemon-2010-12-08T22:11:00.000Z","replies":["c-Wikidemon-2010-12-11T01:35:00.000Z-EncMstr-2010-12-08T22:48:00.000Z"]}}-->

I was trying to work out the details of the article and this other user kept undoing any attempt to reword the statement, s/he arbitrarily pick and chose this one part of the article, and my edits where very constructive, and i was not trying to disrupt the encyclopedia just trying to add a fact i knew about to dixon, i also contacted the editor and discussed it on the talk page but that editor reverted anything i added, even a template, she should be blocked too!

Well you have a narrow view of what an encyclopedia is and there is an article about these funny sounding names, and Dixon would be an appropriate member of the article on unintentionally unusual and humorous names, I was not trying to be immature, I had no problem when I added Analy High School and edited that page as well, I thought this other editor was being the disruptive one, I made every effort to talk to her but she never responded to what I actually said, just unblock me and I'll drop it already its not that big an issue, I see I have just pissed someone off that is high up here.Thisbites (talk) 08:08, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-16T08:08:00.000Z","author":"Thisbites","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Thisbites-2010-12-16T08:08:00.000Z-Blocked","replies":[]}}-->

Find a valid reference for Dixon being widely thought to be a funny name for a city, and you might have something. Your happening to notice it is insufficient, as that's "original research". Intercourse, Pennsylvania, gets plenty of snickers. Nobody snickers at Dixon unless they're really desperate - like Beevis and Butt-Head. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 08:14, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-16T08:14:00.000Z","author":"Baseball Bugs","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Baseball_Bugs-2010-12-16T08:14:00.000Z-Thisbites-2010-12-16T08:09:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Thisbites, most experienced Wikipedians take a dim view of adding unsourced jokes or humour to articles and such edits are invariably considered direct vandalism (WP:NOTJOKE). You are free to be somewhat lighter on non-article pages and many user essays are intentionally humorous (see WP:LOL). I have appreciated some of your previous contributions for what are often controversial and difficult to manage sex and sexuality-related articles.

Please be more careful when dealing with claims about living people. This edit is dangerous and inappropriate. The teacher was merely accused of molestation, not convicted, yet you presented it as fact. The actual outcome of the case was that the teacher was cleared of all molestation charges, and the contact was apparently non-sexual in nature, though not necessarily appropriate. This kind of sloppiness is absolutely unacceptable when dealing with controversial information about living people. Please be more careful in the future.

The article Friends of the Five Creeks has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This organization has very little if any notability and is already mentioned in the Cerrito Creek article. I would motion for it to be merged if there is new verifiable/notable information that can be added to that article. Otherwise, it should be deleted and redirected per WP:ORG

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hello, Thisbites. Please check your email; you've got mail!
It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.

Fortunately I have access to LexusNexus and JSTOR. You may want to check if your nearby library offers free access to these types of databases, many do. As for free access I tend to park some handy shortcuts to obvious sites such as copac, worldcat, googlebooks; newspapers with free searches, NYT, The Times, The Guardian, The Independent; ... Magazines, Time, Advocate News, ... remember that Google can search any specific website without an engine by using the "site:" parameter as part of the search. If you hear about a source and need someone to look it up, then WP:REX can be handy.

It may be worth creating your own mashup, here's the code I use for bookmark to use the shortcut "nn" to search four sites at once and display the results in four sub-frames:

javascript:(function(){if(%22%s%22.length==0){}else{var%20s=%22%s%22.replace(/\s/g,%22%252B%22);var%20h=%22http%253A%252F%252F%22,q=%22%253F%22,a=%22%2526%22;window.location=%22http://yubnub.org/example/split?type=t%26urls=%22+h+%22www.google.com/archivesearch%22+q+%22q=%22+s+%22+%22+h+%22search.bbc.co.uk/search%22+q+%22scope=all%22+a+%22tab=ns%22+a+%22edition=d%22+a+%22q=%22+s+%22+%22+h+%22browse.guardian.co.uk/search%22+q+%22search=%22+s+%22+%22+h+%22www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sitesearch.do%22+q+%22query=%22+s;}})()

Lastly there is the personal network. If you are writing about an organization it can be worth writing to a press officer (or generally to a forum or email group) and ask if there are some good reliable sources to quote for the Wikipedia article. Most organizations will fall over themselves to help once they hear a Wikipedian is sorting out their entry.

Thanks for your comment at my talk page; I'll go ahead and insert that wording in the relevant articles, and delete the "disputed" tag.

Also, you asked for advice about getting a page protected. The way to get protection is to post a request for semiprotection (which means that ISP accounts can't edit) at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. However, I doubt if it will be granted in this case, because the section blanking problem doesn't look that major. It happened a couple of times over a period of many months; that's pretty minor. Semiprotection is used for frequent, serious vandalism. I learned what they consider "serious" when I requested semiprotection for a page that was being vandalized about once a day; the administrator declined it at that time, but granted it later when the pace picked up to three or four times a day. For repeated but rare vandalism like the school page you asked about, the best solution is simply to put the article on your watchlist so you can revert it when it happens. Schools are often targets of mischievous editing.

Thanks for your offer of help with the Bay Area. Since we have been talking about creeks, I do have a question. As it happens I grew up in Oakland, in the Rockridge area, and I have been curious what became of Chabot Creek. I can't find any information about it now, much less a Wikipedia article. But I used to play there sometimes as a child (although I wasn't supposed to). At that time it flowed in the open about as far as Keith Avenue (between College and Broadway) and then went into an underground culvert. Maybe was entirely relegated to underground status when they built the Highway 24 freeway? --MelanieN (talk) 06:33, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-02-03T06:33:00.000Z","author":"MelanieN","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-MelanieN-2011-02-03T06:33:00.000Z-MelanieN-2011-02-02T18:11:00.000Z","replies":["c-M.cellophane-2011-02-03T07:15:00.000Z-MelanieN-2011-02-03T06:33:00.000Z","c-M.cellophane-2011-02-03T17:15:00.000Z-MelanieN-2011-02-03T06:33:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thank you, thisbites, from me as well. I'm glad we reached a resolution. Thanks for the kind words, especially since I got confused at the end with the source of the complaint against PEM! LOL.

Wow, thanks for all your research on Chabot Creek! It was on the Oakland side of the border. We all called it Chabot Creek but there was no signage or bridges; if it crossed a road it did so in a culvert rather than under a bridge. You have to understand, in the 1950s creeks were pretty much ignored, or treated as a nuisance rather than a resource. (For that matter, in those days wetlands were called "mud flats" and were regarded as worthless unless they were filled in and developed. Times have definitely changed!)

You've got it with your mention of Chabot Street. The creek went right past Chabot School, which is at 6686 Chabot Road (just north of the freeway nowadays), and from there it continued above ground just a few blocks to Keith, where it went underground. Sorry I wasn't clear about the location of the culvert; it was at Keith Avenue, a block or two east of College and a block or two west of Broadway. (Keith is now the highway 24 frontage road, immediately parallel to the freeway on the south side.) From the map I think my "Chabot Creek" would be represented by the green line that closely follows the route of the 24 freeway. Is that a branch of Temescal Creek? I can't really tell.

I take it all those dotted red lines are culverts, and that pretty much answers my question; it's almost all underground now. And yet there does appear to be a segment above ground right under the freeway? What do you make of that wiggly green line that follows the course of the freeway?

From the map, the creek that surfaces near St. Albert's College is only a few blocks away but is more likely to be the Harwood (Claremont) Creek rather than my Chabot Creek. I never went to that creek; that campus is pretty much closed to visitors, it is just for priests and monks.

A tag has been placed on Berkeley Partners for Parks requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Hi. You improperly closed the AFD for Dick Crest. I've already fixed it up so no need to worry about cleaning it up. For future reference, if you withdraw a nomination, its probably best to let an uninvolved editor close the AFD discussion.

A tag has been placed on Livermore Extension, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

You can view the full list of stub types at WP:STUBS

Hello Thisbites,

I noticed you marked an article as a stub using the {{stub}} template. Did you know that there are thousands of stub types that you can use to clarify what type of stub the article is? Properly categorizing stubs is important to the Wikipedia community because it helps various WikiProjects to identify articles that need expansion.

If you have questions about stub sorting, don't hesitate to ask! There is a wealth of stub information on the stub sorting WikiProject, and hundreds of stub sorters. Thanks!

Hi, just a note of caution; though there is no firm policy, moving while under AFD is considered by many to be poor practice as it can confuse notices and links or confuse the context of the original nomination.
