I understand you have rules but why don't you help the people listing on Wikipedia as opposed to just deleting what they have. Check out "Quantrix" and "AutoCAD" and tell me who my post was any different. I spent a lot of time trying to update the TABULUS page to match what you (Wikipedia) wanted. Please let me know what I have to do to get my listing back up. What is TABULUS and why is was it created. If something looks this up Wikipedia should hold the answer. I am trying to list this answer. With your help I can do this but please do not just delete work people have done without trying to help them first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbendler ( talk • contribs) 16:38, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
If you say this is clearly SPAM how can I list TABULUS? Tell me and I will follow your direction. As for the open beta its FREE so I am not sure how that is a bad thing. Like I said have you looked at the Quantrix or AutoCAD listings? I would like to hear your thoughts on those pages. As far as copyright violation this is not the case.

Hi Smash...I have followed every rule you set. I have added a spreadsheet program to the list of spreadsheet programs. Now how is this in violation of Wikipedia rules? I did not advertise nor did I put in a link. Please let me know. --Mbendler 20:55, 18 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbendler ( talk • contribs)
Hi Smash...I understand what you are saying but if I never told you I was with the company that makes the software would you pull the post? I don't think you would as it doesn't break any rules. Is TABULUS a spreadsheet program? YES Is TABULUS an accounting tool? YES Is TABULUS a business modeling program? YES
I do not understand why you are changing the rules when this software should be listed as a retail program just like the other retail competing products.
Its unfortunate that you threaten to remove a contributor just because you have a personal issue. Please forward this exact comment to a superior as this is a record of the frustration you are causing. Also please stop deleting my "my talk" comments I have left on your page. You asked that they be posted there to have a record yet you delete what doesn't go in your favor. --Mbendler 21:18, 18 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding

Would you please consider unblocking Dr. Blofeld? The posts of his that I saw were not offensive, just angry (though I may have missed some, I admit). He was upset because he discovered he was being attacked on another website because of his edits to Wikipedia. He also wasn't warned that he might be blocked. The block threatens to re-open a situation that had actually calmed down. SlimVirgin talk| contribs 21:23, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Good Morning. Could you please tell me who the author of that article was? I think the company might meet WP:Company but the author went too far into advertising and promotion.

Hello Smashville. Why did you delete this page that I created? The ship MV Arctic Sea has been in the news for the past two weeks. People may want to know a bit about firm/person that owns this ship. Seems like ownership is relevant to the ship's disappearance, abduction, and recovery. The ownership information is obscure and difficult to locate. Ownership of this firm is significant since it is tied to operator of this ship as well. Mlnovaaa ( talk) 18:17, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Smashville-
I recently created an entry for “The Rapid Results Approach”. While we were trying to figure out how to insert references, the entry was deleted. The given reason was that it was advertisement for a product or service.
This is not quite correct. The Rapid Results Approach (RRA) is a management methodology akin to “Six Sigma or “Balanced-Score Card”. In other words, yes, it is a product or service, however, it is a product available through a variety of independent providers and used by a variety of actors. I would encourage you to Google “Rapid Results” and you will find evidence of these facts.
I would very much appreciate the restoration of the entry, so that we can upload additional references to a variety resources citing RRA and its contributions to the Change Management and Capacity Building disciplines. Such references include documents from the World Bank, non-profits and for-profits that provide and/or use the Approach, Harvard Business Review Articles by various authors and books published by several leading publishing houses.
Additionally, if you can provide any further advice or suggestions on how to best improve the entry, it would be greatly appreciated.

I recently posted information about RackBaller.com on this site. I'm new, it was my first entry. This is a valid site and NOT an endorsement or advertisement. RackBaller.com is hugely popular, particularly in the Dallas market. I'm trying to find out how to restore the posting, and inquire why it was removed. There is relevance, its factual, it was documentarily written, and ecyclopedic. I'm not certain how this works, but do you work for Wiki? Otherwise, I'm not sure why I'm exlpaining all of this. It was a valid, well written, factual post about a web site and author. Please let me know how I can get it reinstated. thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jccal12 ( talk • contribs) 16:38, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Dear Smashville, we noticed that you helpfully prevented the FAO_Goodwill_Ambassador page from being deleted. Since then we have tried to move the page to it's correct name Food_and_Agriculture_Organization_of_the_United_Nations_(FAO)_Goodwill_Ambassadors. However, immediately after moving the page a Bot reverted this change due to "possible vandalism". We have tried to undo the Bot's changes, but with no success. We then added a request to move the page to Wikipedia:Requested_moves on September 4. Unfortunately, the request was deleted by another Bot. Help! We would appreciate any help, including advice on how to approach this problem. Thank you for your time. -- 16Oct1981 ( talk) 13:14, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Hello Smashville! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 873 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{ unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

It's a little extreme to indef-block the user, isn't it? He was ready to discuss and could have simply been told to stop. Though there was a WP:COI, I as a neutral editor (per the policy) agreed that the links provided a useful secondary reference for the visa-free blocks on many passport pages and helped him add it in a more neutral way (previously he was shoving it into the intro). You can see our exchange on his and my talk. — what a crazy random happenstance 07:33, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello! I have noticed that you monitor the San Diego page. Could I ask you to help me nominate a San Diego-related article for deletion? (I started to try to do it myself, but found the process too daunting.) The page is Albert Einstein Academy Charter School, a K through 8 public school which seems non-notable. I came across it because I have been trying to work on some of the pages listed at the Category:San Diego County, California geography stubs. Doesn't seem to be anything more to say about this particular school. You can quote/blame me as the one who asked for its deletion if you wish.

We have been fans of the UPWA and have made our case for reinstatement. We have been ignored while other less notable pages are allowed to stay up and that is fair?

My request for speedy deletion of ColmanBlue was declined by you because it "contains a notable musician"; however, a single notable musician is not sufficient for the notability of a musical group. In the absence of other suitable notability, it takes at least two notable musicians. (cf. #6 in Wikipedia:Notability_(music)#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles) This group does not appear to have satisfied any of the other criteria and therefore they fail notability and should be deleted. The notable musician in this case is borderline notable herself. The (as-of-yet unaccomplished) new venture of a barely notable artist seems to fail common sense guidelines for notability. If any of ColmanBlue's singles has success then the article could re-introduced but until then this seems like it should be deleted. If you think speedy deletion is hasty, I can copy-n-paste our discussion over to the talk page and wait for more input but I think the guidelines are clear here.

Hi Smashville. Just before you deleted this page I removed the CSD tag, since I think it was probably true and therefore not a hoax (although obviously non-notable). I then went to AfD it, not realising you'd deleted it - so Twinkle recreated the page with the AfD notice. I've now closed the debate and G6'ed the page. I don't intend to recreate the original page, even though I wouldn't have G3'ed it myself, since it was clearly headed for deletion eventually. Since the G6 was my first ever admin action in mainspace though, please do tell me if you think it was the wrong solution! Olaf Davis ( talk) 23:05, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Why would you delete Shaistyr? We are currently organizing information and 5 minutes to see if we have valid resources isn't very reasonable! —Preceding unsigned comment added by BroShais ( talk • contribs) 23:11, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
As a very exclusive and esoteric group, very little is known about Shaistyr and its members or origins. It is also unfortunate that there are no publicly accessible documents or statistics that may give an insight as to how many members are within it or when it was first created. Scholars estimate that it was founded in the first few months of the recent year of 2008 and continues to expand. Estimations about the brotherhood's size could range from 100-5000 members.
Not to mention..."shaistyr" = shyster. Gimme a break. Post that crap again and I will block you. -- Smashville talk 14:36, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Yesterday Missippi was redlinked, so I unlinked it in another article. Today Missippi reappeared. I suspect it may be a deleted article that's been recreated, but the Missippi that you deleted (G8) on January 11 [4] may have been an orphaned redirect to another article. If so, may I know which article it redirected to so that I can look for its AfD and ask for a comparison? (Please note: I am a Wiki-peon, not an admin.

Go Preds Go! Wanted to come to you with a question. Can you have a look here ... I have twice removed the information about "times of church service" and the name of a non-notable minister taking over, and twice it's been reverted by a different IP. Protection useful? I'm not willing to edit-war, and I can neither protect myself (my current RfA's in-progress) nor would I do it myself because I'm "involved", even though I only dropped by to copyedit.

Thank you for the notification on my talk page . These users owing to bad faith are simply unwittingly engaged in the act of counter-compaint in response to a pre-existing currently unresolved complaint lodged by me here. [6] .These users are confusing contest dispute with vandalism. . Since WP : 30 and multi party discussion failed, these users declined my efforts of next level of dispute resolution. [7]. The above users have also refused to consider NPOV provided to them in good faith [8] . The focus on the primary issuees- as the following remains still unaddressed (1) formal mediation of this dispute by experts who will judge my citations and theirs without any prejuice (2) Avoid coccussing tendency of a community of users with well established agenda to mis-represent information on a web-based encyclopedia the source of encouragement for these edit wars is meat puppetry by user User:Anandks007 as as seen here [9]. (3) The need to resolve disputes not by sticking to ones stand point but coming to neutral solutions. So do go through the middle solution here [10]. I am entitled as any other wikipedia editor to the duty of maintaining authenticity of the article whether the disagreement is with 1 or 10. This new ANI thread is irrelevant and redundant as the a pre-existing ANI thread [11] clearly documents the issue from the perspectives of either parties and provides arguments from either side.

I understood my mistakes and the reasons for my block and I changed my behaviour. Since I started my new account, User:Ddaann2, I started making only constructive edits, as you can see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ddaann2. Even if i made all my edits in good faith, the user User:Squash_Racket reverts my edits, even if it's obvious that they are constructive, judging them by the author, not by their content.

It is a mandatory obligation to remove potentially libelous statements.

Actually I see your point if your concern is that Wikipedia is not a place to publish original thought.
