Kaltura - need your opinion

I believe that you had once deleted and protected the article Kaltura that I had been trying to get published. I have been speaking with UsaSatsui and per his suggestion in the deletion review for Kaltura, I have created a new page in draft mode and would like for you to review it. UsaSatsui has already reviewed it and beyond a few small changes that he thinks could help, he feels it's in good shape to submit to deletion review again, and hopefully it can be moved out of draft mode. He did however suggest that I run it by one more admin first, so I'm hoping you can help. Please review the draft I created User:Lishkee/Kaltura and let me know. Thank you!!Lishkee (talk) 22:21, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks, I understand and I've already started the deletion review process as well.Lishkee (talk) 08:23, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Question

What happened to Wikipedia:Protected titles, are we back to templates?--Hu12 (talk) 02:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Doctor Steel

Hello, this is maybe the second time I've ever logged on to Wikipedia, so I'm not sure if I'm following the correct procedure. Anyway, I found your name from the talk page at the deleted Doctor Steel page. I was curious about why that page was locked. I was told about Dr. Steel by a coworker and wanted to find out more at Wikipedia, but it seems Wikipedia is silent about this topic? Maxwerx (talk) 21:57, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

The Comedian's Comedian

Just curious as to why the article is protected against creation.76.84.230.183 (talk) 08:24, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

MechQuest Page

Not sure if this is the correct / proper way to go about this, but here we go. Why was the MechQuest article deleted and then protected from creation? All of Artix Entertainment's other main games have pages and MechQuest is mentioned in the main company article, so it can't be permission or something. Care to clue me in? Baseballbaker23 (talk) 03:40, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Edit: Ah, it's more complicated than I had thought. I'll let people who know more about the system here argue over it for me and then add in anything I know once / if it's put back up. Thanks. Baseballbaker23 (talk) 03:58, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Deletion of Reign

Hi. You deleted Reign (role-playing game) under csd a7. a7 states A7 applies only to articles about web content or articles on people and organizations themselves, not articles on their books, albums, software and so on. While it has pdf updates, the game itself is a book. --86.88.18.236 (talk) 22:29, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Violation of 1RR rule on Waterboarding

Please see this edit: [1] and block Black Kite (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) immediately for violating your new 1RR rule. Also, please revert his disruptive edit. (In the alternative, please don't block me for doing it myself if you don't revert it within the next few hours.) Otherwise, you will be endorsing violation of all the new rules and a lot more people will be violating them. Also they're talking about banning me from the article for three months over at WP:ANI, so I think a three-month article ban for Black Kite is appropriate. He has a disruptive editing pattern in the article mainspace and he deserves it. Thank you. Neutral Good (talk) 02:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, since you have set new rules, how does [this fit into your structure. I edited in good faith and didn't actually change content, but only asked for citations. My edits were IMMEDIATELY reverted. So, what action will you take under these rules? --Blue Tie (talk) 02:41, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

One might say that Blue Tie has made edits that he knew would be controversial, in order to change the new regime. --Akhilleus (talk) 02:50, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, one might say that, but one would be utterly wrong and in complete violation of WP:AGF. I am not interested in challenging the new regime. On my word of honor that would never enter my head. However, I edited in parts of the article that were not part of the controversy on the talk page and I only asked for citations, I did not change any text. I believe that there are some problems of original research so I asked for cites. This is not a bad thing and does not injure the article. Generally requests for cites should not be reverted anyway.. they should be answered with citations! But when rules have been set down forbidding immediate reverts, then I do not know what to do. Per the rules, I am forbidden from reverting an act that was against the rules. I have no recourse but to bring it to that admin. I should not be condemned or impugned for following the rules -- and for seeking redress of wrongs under those rules. --Blue Tie (talk) 03:16, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Quite frankly, Blue Tie, I don't believe you. Asking for citations when there are none is a fine thing, but in this edit, you slap a {{fact}} tag on a sentence that cites a Washington Post article. You put the tag there because you disagreed with the Post, not because the material lacked citation. That's not what the {{fact}} tag is for, and you should have known that someone was going to disagree with your edit. --Akhilleus (talk) 04:10, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

OK, you do not believe me. I do not know how to convince you. I can see where that edit would seem suspicious, so maybe its impossible for you to assume good faith. Everyone has their limits. However, I believe it is not unreasonable to question a source's correctness. In this case, I do. I have slowly, gradually come to a realization: The term "waterboarding" is not well defined and may not be correctly applied in the popular press. This is such a big problem, that even if I were editing the article all on my own, I do not know if I could get it "right" using press sources. I am not talking about "truth". I am talking about actually presenting the facts correctly. It has me genuinely concerned. This is an abbreviation of my concern, but it is my best answer to your doubt.

Going forward though, take a look at my other edits. They were ALL reverted. But I suspect you cannot find equal fault with them. Such wholesale reverts are simply inappropriate, even in normal circumstances but under the new rules, such mass reverts without discussion should not occur and seeking remedies from authorities is appropriate. Had only that one single edit that you find troubling been reverted, I would not have fought or complained. I would, however, have sought discussion.

Knowing this, I hope you can find yourself assuming good faith again. If you cannot, then you will be unable to edit constructively with me on that page. --Blue Tie (talk) 04:44, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Reprotect Waterboarding

Requesting your assent as the latest admin to deal with this mess: The semi-protect isn't working. Instead of handing out a bunch of blocks, which would only inflame things further, I plan to return the article to full protection. I think the article needs a good long period of full protection so all the parties can discuss things and come to agreement (assuming that's possible). Yea or nea? Raymond Arritt (talk) 03:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

If it is protected, it should have a tag that says it is protected because of disputes. I admit I am not paying attention to whether people are edit warring, so if I say I have not noticed any edit warring that does not mean there is none. But is there really a lot? I have not seen it. And ...if the rules laid down by McBride are tried for a while (except for the first unworkable rule) maybe things will work out over time. Seems like they haven't even been given a chance. No enforcement so far. --Blue Tie (talk) 03:21, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Aliya-Jasmine Sovani (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) I listed this on the page unprotection request page before I realized I should have just come to you, as you were the original protector. I have "adopted" user Jamierush and helped her develop this page over the last few days. I think that notability is now established, and I pretty much made her reference everything.

Category:Getrag transmissions

I noticed you deleted this on January 5 under CSD:C1 (empty). This original (non-cap) category was created some time in 2005 by User:Sfoskett. A duplicate category, Category:GETRAG transmissions, was created by a user who disputed the non caps (at the same time he was also involved in several copy/paste page moves which also required subsequent repair). In this case, the user simply changed the capitalization of each categorized page from Getrag to GETRAG to populate the new, duplicate category, and although I pointed out our GFDL requirements to him on his talk page,[2] he refused to acknowledge this.[3] I've no idea whether it was the specific user, a bot, or a passing editor who requested deletion, but we now have a three year old category with no attribution to the author who properly created it. Doesn't this require an undeletion/history merge? --DeLarge (talk) 15:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:X10

A tag has been placed on Template:X10 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a template that is divisive and inflammatory.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[Talk:Template:X10|the article's talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Jason Lytle

I've been asked by a user to make it possible for him to recreate this page (see my talk page for the request). Since you protected it, I thought I'd ask you for your opinion of that idea first. The user suggests that it would be relatively easy for him to demonstrate notability; I'm happy to do whatever would result in a useful and notable page. Please let me know your thoughts, and thanks in advance for your trouble. Accounting4Taste:talk 15:58, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

• I haven't heard from you on this, as far as I know, so I've gone ahead and recreated the page for the user in question. I hope this meets with your approval; if you have any questions or problems, I'm at your service. Accounting4Taste:talk 22:09, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me, and I'm glad you're not bothered. I was the admin who deleted it the last two times, so I guess it's up to me... I'll keep an eye on it. BTW, if it makes a difference, I like the new protection system a lot more than the old one, now that I think I have the hang of it. I don't protect much, but when I want to, it's a lot easier. Thanks. Accounting4Taste:talk 00:02, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Vanishing

Hi, just addressing something, earlier you undeleted my user talk, which was completely fine. :) I've been busy lately, and some issues have forced me to stay away. In the event that I am completely unavailable, I vanish temporarily to reflect that fact. It's certainly unorthodox and perhaps not the best form, but I prefer it given the possibility, however marginal, at each break that I might not come back. I've undeleted and unprotected my user/talk pages, for now, since I may be available occasionally, but I figured that an explanation to you would be appropriate. I miss being here - I hope that soon I may return in a fuller capacity. Nihiltres^{t.l} 04:11, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for clarifications re: recent changes to Template:Buddhism

Howdy MZMcBride -

If you've the time, just due to intellectual curiosity on my part and as a maintainer of Template:Buddhism, I wondering if you could help me understand the changes you recently made to Template:Buddhism (02:58, 15 January 2008). In particular:

• Is Template:! no longer appropriate to use (or perhaps it is simply not needed any more in the context of Template:Buddhism) ?
• What is the benefit of <br/> vs. <br> and is there a benefit to inserting variable spaces between the "br" and the "/"? (I'm an old GML and SGML coder and I simply don't recollect the use of the slash in this context — though this could just be a facet of my increasingly feeble memory.)

Thanks for any help,

Paul Addis article

Hi. I see you recently protected the deleted Paul Addis article against re-creation.

I am considering creating a new article about this person. He is certainly notable. I would have no problem creating a well-sourced article that establishes notability and avoids BLP issues. I don't see anything in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Addis or the deletion log that would prohibit re-creation, and I'm a little confused about the "deprecating protected titles" notation for protection you gave here. Is there something I'm missing? If there is no special reason to salt this article would you kindly unprotect it so I may create an article; or otherwise, point me to where that decision was made so I can review it and decide whether to ask for a review. Thanks, Wikidemo (talk) 17:05, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

DjVu icon

Hi MZMcBride, you recently removed the redirect on Image:DjVu-logo.png. As I mentioned on the image page, I added the redirect so that it works with a template I created for DjVu files. When an external link points to a DjVu, this glyph shows what file type it is. Clicking on the glyph redirects to DjVu, the article explaining the file type. Do you think this is undesirable? Another option would be to create two duplicate images; one with a redirect to work with the template, and one ordinary. Please reply on Image talk:DjVu-logo.png rather than here.

Deletion of template:Eksi

Hey,

I don't know if I'm did something wrong when I was making the userbox but from what I see, I and couple other users, namely the ones in Category:Ek$i Sözlük Contributors are using this template, so it's not orphaned. However it's also very likely that I did something wrong so could you help me fixing whatever that is? Regards, Kerem Özcan (talk) 11:47, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:East Asian Cinema

Hello, you noted on my talk page that this Template is due to be speedy deleted. The reason it is orphaned appears to be because of the incorrect capitalisation of the word "cinema". Another template exists entitled Template:East Asian cinema, with much the same content.

The formatting of the template with the correct title (lower case "c") is insconsistent with other similar templates (e.g. Template:Southeast Asian cinema, Template:South Asian cinema etc), whereas the template with the upper case "c" is consistent with those, which probably explains why it was kept. I will format the lower case "c" template now, to match the others and you can go ahead and delete the upper case "c" template.

ImageMap

I'm not sure if this is a known bug (or intententional) but interwiki links don't seem to be working nicely with the newer ImageMap functions. For an example:

{{Click-fixed
|image  = Wikimedia-logo.svg
|width  = 100
|height = 100
|title  = :meta:Template:Click
|link   = :meta:Template:Click
}}

Produces: Template:Click-fixed

That's going to be a bit of a problem to replace click, since interwiki linking is a major aspect of this, and inappropriate titles are going to make the images confusing. I thought I'd bug you since you seem to know what's going on with the extension at MW :). Feel free to comment at Template talk:Click-fixed Justin ^chat 07:00, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Good news, everyone! This isn't an issue - the leading colon in the link is completely unnecessary and is what's causing the problem.

{{Click-fixed
|image  = Wikimedia-logo.svg
|width  = 100
|height = 100
|title  = meta:Template:Click
|link = meta:Template:Click
}}

produces:

Template:Click-fixed

There's no real problem in the template, though ImageMap's handling of interwikis is somewhat funky sometimes. :) Nihiltres^{t.l} 01:15, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Requesting unprotection of Islamophilia

Hi there. You protected this page a while back as a redirect to Islamophilia (neologism). Unfortunately the article is now under the wrong title - 'Islamophilia' would be a better name for it, as there is no need for the disambiguation brackets. I have requested to move the article to this name: see Talk:Islamophilia (neologism)#Requested move. I would have performed the move myself, except that the target was protected. If there is a consensus in favour of my proposed move, can you please unprotect the target and move the page there? Thanks in advance. Terraxos (talk) 03:35, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Peer review

My new mop and bucket is already getting a lot of work :D. For the past week or so I've been working with Geometry guy on a massive reorganisation of the peer review archives and listing system. For the past three years we've been building up a massive collection of "archives" organised variously as Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename/archive1, Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename/Archive , Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename/Attempt 1, Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename 1, Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename archive, Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename second try and even (my personal favourite) Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename/Wikipedia:Peer review/articlename. Obviously this is hugely problematic if you actually want to find anything at PR, especially automatically. GG's been working on a new set of listing templates that will automatically place new listings in a correctly-formatted archive, and I've been working on the task of sorting out all these dodgy archive formats. As you can see from the discussion, my bot request and MelonBot's and my contributions, it's an ongoing and fairly epic operation. Nonetheless, we're trying to be as careful as possible to avoid breaking any links for any longer than absolutely necessary. I hope this explains the flurry of activity for you.

I am deleting a lot of them. But my bot is doing most of the work - and we know what happens when someone suggests that a bot be given the admin bit.... Happy‑melon 21:54, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer

Thank you for the offer to help with the mass deletion. The templates in question are those held in Category:European_Parliament_constituency_infoboxes. They are all templates-of-a-template and so have been nominated for deletion (see [4] for the discussion). So I'm updating the articles accordingly. It would help if you could massdelete the templates held under Category:European_Parliament_constituency_infoboxes and then, when theyre all gone, delete the category as well. But - and this is important - please don't do it until I've finished moving the templates. I'll give you the nod when I'm done. Thanks for the help.

Wipe them out. All of them...

Dear MZMcBride. Please initiate Order 66 on all templates within Category:European_Parliament_constituency_infoboxes, then delete the category. Use {{db-author}} by as your authority. Let no one stop you in your task. Show no mercy. The Galaxy shall be ours by sunset...(Yes, I know, but I've just spent about 8 hrs painstakingly moving and checking templates it took me days to create, so cut me some slack on the humor front...<grin>).
