Hi Old Yeller. Can you put a stop to this speedy deletion of my name. I have done nothing wrong here. I own all the material in question. The site in question slitherproductions copied and pasted the Automan.ca info/bio off one of my sites. I own that material out right. I could order them to take it down. This all stemmed back to the Killer Dwarfs page not Automan.ca. Also. This article was clearded by a wiki administrator jimbleak as credable. He helped me format it. Thank You —Preceding unsigned comment added by Unkledunk ( talk • contribs) 16:53, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
There is no copyright infringement on the Automan.ca article. The infringement happened when I was editing the Killer Dwarfs page or updating it with current info on myself. I copied and pasted some of my own Bio. I dont know where the accused infringement came from. This is insane.
Ol Yeller. Jim helped me with the formatting yes, and after I explained my multi platinum band Killer Dwarfs is on Wikipedia and who I am a founding member he was Ok with the article. Also Automan.ca is already on Wiki but in Brazil. I dont know who posted it. Im in the top 150 drummers in the world. This band is a big deal in my career of 35 years and the last band I will write music for and tour in. If its not added on wiki now, it will be when I'm dead. As I told Jim. I dont take it personal. There are thousands of articles on my bands and myself on google. I wont bother with this on here anymore.
Hello OlYeller21. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Vincent Fovargue, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. Nancy talk 15:12, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi, sorry for not getting back to you earlier on this. i agree that the article as it stands is a total mess - poorly sourced if at all, prone to over-listing and promotion, stylistically all over the place. A lot of the information in it is true, but clearly WP policies need it to be verified with proper sources as well. For quite some time now i've wanted to overhaul the thing. If you don't mind a little more waiting, i will make an effort to find and add some proper sources this week. Oh, and thanks for your description of how i seem as an editor etc.! *tips hat*. Cheers, tomasz. 19:14, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello there OlYeller, Jeff Bedford here. I noticed that you've been active on the Honda article talk page, and have also been planning an article on Honda R&D Americas, so I wanted to introduce myself. Earlier this summer I began to write an article on American Honda Motor Company - the North American subsidiary of Honda Motor Company. In the process I have read through several books on Honda's American operations, and have been diligent in citing reliable sources. I have also taken a photo of the Torrance, CA facility for use in this article, which is now on the Commons and published under the Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license. I hope that you and others are able to make use of it in any future articles.
To this accord (no pun intended), I happen to have a WP:COI with the subject matter, as Honda is a client of my employer. With this in mind, I have directed increased attention towards writing the article in a way that agrees with NPOV, Notability and Verifiability. The article is now in a position to be created, but I'd like to get your input on it, along with your assistance in moving it to mainspace. It is currently located as a draft at: User:Jeff_Bedford/American_Honda_Motor_Company. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on how we can best move forward.
Also, per your note at the top of your User Talk page, feel free to respond directly here (instead of on my talk page). I like your idea here -- it makes the conversation much easier to follow! Cheers, Jeff Bedford ( talk) 16:01, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
Why did you revert my edit? I added three references, did some wikifying and the article are linked from another article. Are they not supposed to be removed after the problems have been fixed? And anyway, why not just reinsert the templates if you think they was removed premature? You don't have to remove the references etc! I'll revert you now, please discuss before you do such things. Sorry I missed to write a comment. -- Skizzik talk 12:33, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
Re. RCAF Coal Harbour... Apparently this has been deleted... I cannot think of a reason why... The advisory states there was plagiarism, but I think there is some confusion since I did copy a portion of an earlier post (my own words) on Coal Harbour. I think the software picked up the copy and assumed that someone had cut and pasted it... which in fact happenned. But actually was the original author, so do not think that this qualifies as plagiarism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Canadaman1 ( talk • contribs) 04:58, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi there please hang on in the SPEEDY deletion of the D.I Jolly page as This is my first article, there is no copyright infringement.

Hello. When you patrol new pages, all articles that you have looked at should be marked patrolled, whether you marked them for deletion or deemed them acceptable, unless you are not sure. This saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thank you. Kudpung ( talk) 23:59, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
By the way, would you take a look at have a nice day—something which I've working on for a while—and give it a review (comments about any awkwardness in the prose, the article's organization, irregularities in the formatting, etc.)? Thank you! Cunard ( talk) 05:15, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

I have added more details to the Tata Swach , keeping in mind the Neutral POV & edited the content to remove advertisement tone. Also added a brief introduction about the product, technology, variants, features and pricing. Please let me know to remove the replacement templates, provided the edited version complies to the standards and is neutral.
I am new to Wikipedia and learning the policies and protocols to ensure the best standards. Please let me know the issues with the edited version, and also help me with suggestions to correct the issues with the edited version, if any. Also please inform he on how to remove the improvement templates and remove the tags - whether I can removve them myself or it has to be done by the moderators only.

I am undoing edits made by you on Tata swach page as indiaenvironmentportal.org is under CC Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 India License & is listed a free content in Wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags/Free_licenses . If I am mistaken please correct me. Thanks. -- Globalfunky ( talk) 03:37, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
I am removing improvement tags COI and advert from Tata swach. As discussed with User::OlYeller21 these issues were to be addressed once the article was rewritten from a neutral POV and copyright issues were addressed. Please undo if incorrect. However, since very few Wiki articles link to this page, The orphan tag is retained.
Greetings,
I have just updated some information on :
http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=ZAP_Alias&diff=402507335&oldid=402323945
and hope you can give me a second opinion on it. It will be more than great if you can confirm if the references I have used from just-auto.com are reliable or not.
Thanks for everything you might do on this matter.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Patxi's Chicago Pizza 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 made a comment about Google search results (a valid one I might add) at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Godsville. However, the comment is misplaced I believe due to the previous editor failing to sign the comment. As a result, it looked like I was the one who posted the search results which I believe you are referring to. I'd appreciate it if you could clarify by moving your comment to the right place now that I've tagged the original comment with an {{ unsigned}}. I'd do it myself, but I don't want to assume I've interpreted things correctly and you as the originator of the comment would know your own intent. Thanks, -- Whpq ( talk) 17:56, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Hey, just letting you know I declined a G12 speedy on this page. The website you put down as the source of the copyright violation appears to be a live Wikipedia mirror, without attribution. I was slightly suspicious when the content was character for character identical, including superscript areas for references, heading titles, and the table of contents. I followed a link to http://binge-eating-disorder.co.tv/ and took a look at Binge eating disorder, and saw the same issue; the two are also character for character identical. I'm just letting you know so that you won't make the same mistake on any other pages. Cheers. lifebaka ++ 22:27, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm in the process of making the changes you suggested. I think I've confused "references" with being references to a topic in the wikipedia entry, as opposed to references of the wikipedia entry subject. Hence linking to articles or surces on a topic mentioned mid entry (like FOD) that explain and provide more information on FOD in general but don't mention WheelTug (since they predate WheelTug). Can you help me on understanding the difference? I still want to provide links to the specific 'topic' that is of relavent to the 'subject' (of the wikipedia article) for those who want to know more about what is being refered (or referenced) to.
As for notability through articles, there are several articles in Janes Airport Review, but they are paid subscription, but there are others including one in Motor Trend magazine: http://www.motortrend.com/features/editorial/112_0901_flying_hybrids_technologue/index.html that are accessible through a search. Furthermore, they have attended the farnborough air show and are attending the paris air show (but through their partners who are well known in the industry).
In an effort to show notability, I tried to put in why it was notable. The problems it is desiged to solve are major ones plaguing the industry, and not all of them are obvious (such as the early start times). Furthermore, since all the articles out on it each have their own little piece of the pie, I figure I'd put the whole pie there AND give people the links to explore areas that are of interst to them as they leave the topic of WheelTug itself.

Hello, OlYeller21. I notice that you proposed Italian and Romanian common words for deletion and later nominated it for AfD discussion. It appears that you forgot to inform the page's creator of these actions, however. It is considered appropriate to let page creators know about deletion discussions, and templates exist to assist in this notification. See {{ proposed deletion notify}} and {{ AfD-notice}}. Happy editing, Cnilep ( talk) 01:16, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Sorry about that. I am new to editing and commenting on Wikipedia. I have a number of "discussions" about TOMS with people trying to quote the Wikipedia page saying that TOMS was falsely claiming to be a non-profit when it was actually a for profit. Just wanted to make sure that was changed. So I will make sure I use this forum next time. AND thank you for making the changes.
