Hacker Ministry AfD

Hey -- I closed this debate right after you relisted it. I didn't realize at the time; didn't mean to step on your toes. But, I think it's better to close the debate instead of relisting: the debate was somewhat confused because of some OR based on email correspondance that has now been removed, so if the question must be raised again it should be raised fresh.

DYK September 20

On 20 September, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Roosevelt Raceway (harness racing), which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Barneca RfA thank you spam

CitiCat, thank you for your support during my RfA, especially after the concerns that were brought up by other editors. I'll keep all of the comments in mind in the coming months, and will try again later. In the mean time, if you see me doing something stupid, please let me know. See you around. --barneca (talk) 13:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

RFA Thanks!

Thanks for your participation for my RFA bid and for your support.--JForget 23:16, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Consensus

Hi Citicat, I left a rather brusque reply to a comment you left at this AfD. I struck it out, as I generally don't believe in removing comments from talk spaces. However, I wanted to apologize and assure you that there was no insult intended, I simply replied without thinking it through. :) Cheers, faithless (^speak) 03:30, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

List of progressive rock artists

Was there a discussion prior to the deletion of this article? --Scottandrewhutchins 16:45, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

That page was a redirect to List of progressive rock bands and musicians, which was was deleted after this discussion CitiCat ^♫ 17:33, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Sebwite's reply

In response to the deleted article, what I have thought of doing is writing a description of each of these individual roads in the respective town in which the majority of the road is located. If you can transfer the article to my user page, I can take it from that point on. Sebwite 14:43, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Deletion review

A big oops! For what it's worth, I might have !Vote delete at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Deletion review. -- Jreferee t/c 00:57, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I hit stop (on my browser) right after I hit delete, I hadn't even realized I had clicked on the link to that page. Then I checked it a minute later, and everything seemed fine. Oh well. I'm working on restoring it now. Thanks. CitiCat ^♫ 01:11, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I was about to ask why deletion review was deleted, but then I realized it was the ultimate deletionist thing to do :p — Moe ε 01:30, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

After Midnight Project

Why was the page for After Midnight Project deleted? I was going to add the page but noticed you had previously deleted it.

Magus05 21:23, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the speedy response! While I tend to think they are notable enough to have a page, I will admit they don't fit into the official criteria. I'll let it pass, they'll get bigger and somebody out there will undoubtedly make the page again.

AFD/Bombadil

Care to give a rationale? Will ^(talk) 16:40, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Sure. The closure was based on the fact that no one refuted that the band met the primarily notability criteria of significant coverage in third party sources. CitiCat ^♫ 16:52, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey, the descision was to keep the bombadil article. We did not discuss moving the page. Will' moved it to bombadil (band), and redirected the bombadil article to the Tom Bombadil article. Can we please revert it? Jamisys 02:43, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Bittersweet Poetry

I have temporarily restored this article's history (not sure if what I did was the most efficient way to do that), so that the community can see a (now deleted) edit that I cited in dicussion on a current WP:RFA candidacy. Once the candidacy has concluded, I'll re-delete the article. Just wanted to let you know out of courtesy, since you had deleted it and may be checking your logs for blue links (many of us do) to see what has crept back out of the ooze following deletion.

TruthCrusader

This seems to me like two bad drivers meeting at a merger and crashing into each other.

And you would be wrong. Before you continue falling for the word of a troll, misinterpret the timing, and continue to insist on using false equivalency, consider the following:

1) I didn't "[throw] fuel on a smouldering fire": I hadn't been editing Wikipedia in a month. What drew me back was tracing the source of...

2)...someone leaving a comment on my blog, reading "fuck off, you wikipedia nazi". And hey, look where its IP address led to. Very helpful of TruthCrusader. I left a message telling him he'd been rumbled, and lo, another message shows up (though this time he thought to use an anonymizer first):

I know who you are....a[n] ... arrogant bitter angry fucktard whose alcoholic father raped a ... woman and had the misfortune of fathering YOU...piece of shit who uses the fact that he was taunted all his life ... to bring misery and bitterness to Wikipedia. You're the worst example of a wikipedia editor and a human being in general.

...you come across as a bitter 15 year old emo kid. You will never amount to anything except a lonely old english teacher (which means you are also probably a pedophile). The best thing for you to do would be to blow your fucking brains out.

Lemme know how that double-standard troll-enabling philosophy works out for you.

3)The stuff documented publicly isn't the worst thing that TruthCrusader seems to have done, but it shouldn't be dredged up unless absolutely necessary, since the energy-suck that's already taken place is bad enough, more drama is unhelpful, and there are privacy issues involved. He's blocked, and that should be the end of it.

4) And before you continue badgering Jpgordon, I should tell you that I have been advising not just Jpgordon, but two other admins, and they don't seem to have objected so far. If you want, I can ask them to contact you directly with their opinions -- or you can just stop assuming bad faith from a long-time admin and member of ArbCom, namely Jpgordon. --Calton | Talk 14:52, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

If I do quit Wikipedia, it will be in disgust over people who think empowering trolls, rewarding personal harassment, and/or practicing amateur group psychology takes precedence over creating, writing, and editing an encyclopedia, or who are unable to draw gross distinctions even when a picture is painted for them. --Calton | Talk 15:35, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Yup, that's probably true - I believe you need to look up the term "self-awareness". You might find it helpful. --Calton | Talk 15:43, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
