Wikistalk.py tool?GC, at one point many moons ago, you posted this to AN/K. I remember it working before, but it doesn't seem to work now. Know anything else that has this functionality?

Jack Cook JangalaHi, I note that the content I added for Jack Cook Jangala has been deleted. I note that the reason is "copyright infringement". I however, own the page that you say it is infinging the copyright of. Can you advise how we address this conundrum? Additionally, I note that one other comment is that it is not significant. I would argue that as Jack is the only remaining elder that paints in his community and paints some exceptional artworks (collected worldwide) that his work is significant and of interest to proponents of Aboriginal Art. I look forward to hearing from you.

Re:MopsIt was very nice of you to consider me experienced enough for an RfA. However, I feel I haven't worked enough to try for it. Quite frankly I don't have enough experience in creating GAs and FAs and majority of my work has been related with countering vandalism. However, I'd like to be considered for adminship one day and in fact have been looking around in order to improve my knowledge on working of wikipedia. If you don't mind me asking, would be interested in helping me? LeaveSleaves talk 15:53, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
RfAHi GlassCobra! Thank you very much for your support and comments in the RfA. It passed today, and your trust in my abilities is much appreciated :) Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 22:48, 28 October 2008 (UTC) the steve arb thingG'day Glass - I noticed your response on the arbitration talk page, and thought I'd swing by here - firstly, just to mention that if you do feel like talking stuff through in a bit more detail (I guess this would include chatting about the thread on Jimbo's talk page too, if you'd like), then I'm happy to - and my talk page is always open, or I can bang on here for a bit :-) I'm not sure if we've crossed paths much in the past, and I guess serendipity is cajoling us into the same parts of the wiki at the moment - it's nice to 'meet' you :-) On the steve matter, I do feel that the situation is sensitive, and a bit complicated - per my original request for clarification, I think there was some sort of agreement, which has morphed into an official ban. The presence of such a ban without an arb case, and particularly without an 'on-wiki' committee vote, isn't, in my view 'best practice' - and is worth fixing up, even at this stage :-) happy to chat further if you'd like. best, Privatemusings (talk) 20:20, 29 October 2008 (UTC) RfA thanksdeleteDo you know where the real deleting page is?--Spittlespat 20:38, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
only so you knowAs the discussion on my talk page thickens, please keep in mind I'm not complaining about your action or reasoning, I understand what happened, I'm only talking about the outcome, to stir up some thinking.

FoolesTroupe (talk) 10:39, 3 November 2008 (UTC) "Reality" show contestantsI thought it was concluded some time ago that there are so many of these shows on the air nowadays that just being a "reality" show contestant, like being a gameshow contestant, no longers constitute a claim of notability, until and unless a contestant acquires serious media attention as a result of it. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:18, 3 November 2008 (UTC) Re: A return!Thanks, it's good to be back.

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, finalize and approve bylaws, interact with representatives from the Software Freedom Law Center, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the June meeting's minutes and the September meeting's minutes). We'll also review our recent Wikis Take Manhattan event, and make preparations for our exciting successor Wikipedia Loves Art! bonanza, being planned with the Brooklyn Museum for February. In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and (weather permitting) hold a late-night astronomy event at Columbia's telescopes. You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list. To keep up-to-date on local events, you can also join our mailing list.

ScienceApologist (talk) 20:43, 10 November 2008 (UTC) Thank youI'm not a believer in template RfA thankyous, so this is a short handwritten note to say thansk fro your support in my RfA which closed at 96/0/2, and I agree with your comment that AfD's are never a bad idea when in doubt. Balloonman's CSD question was a good opportunity to reflect on the importance of accurate tagging - a lesson I will take to heart going forward. So thanks again and feel free to stop by with any advice or a gentle push in the right direction if I seem to need one. :) Euryalus (talk) 11:39, 12 November 2008 (UTC) AfDHello.

My main concern with this WikiProject isn't so much that it's been inactive forever and a day, but more that it's never really done anything. By my count, there are only three each of country music-related FAs and GAs, one of which (Diamond Rio) was my own doing. Looking at the contributions, I see nothing significant that any member has done besides sporadic WikiGnome work — in most cases, they've long since ceased to edit country music articles in general, and about half the members have left the project or only ever did <10 edits. As I said, most of the links to the project come from {{countrybanner}}, a template which I did most of the placement for. So basically, I've done about 3/4 of the work for this project in the past 2 years.

My films are humanitarian focused which we use to help raise awareness of subjects that are not often addressed in main stream media. If you feel my work is not worth then please delete it. I hope it makes you feel better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atweddle (talk • contribs) 22:11, 18 November 2008 (UTC) Country wikiproject"If I were TPH, I would start poring through the histories of country articles and leaving "join-the-project" notes on the talk pages of everyone there, even people who just swept in for a quick cleanup." That's the problem. Almost everyone who "sweeps in" is usually an SPA or an IP, and usually all they do is vandalize or add POV. I've tried asking nicely on IRC and, except for User:X! helping me with Diamond Rio discography, all I ever get is "go get stuffed, I hate country music" or words to that effect. The only other country editors I see are already members of the project anyway (regulars like Caldorwards4, Eric444, EndaleComplex, and semi-regulars like BravesFan2006, Martin4647, etc.), and they mostly do WikiGnome work. Yes, I was probably a little bitter when I nominated the project for deletion, and yes, I'm still disgusted that country is by far the most ignored musical genre on the whole project. But I'll take your suggestion and see if I can get anyone, although by now I think that's highly unlikely.

Re: User Talk SJrX10Yes Sorry, I was following advice on #wikipedia on irc.freenode.net and misunderstood what someone said, I did remove it, almost immediatetly after, so I'm not sure how you saw it. SJrX10 (talk) 05:06, 20 November 2008 (UTC)SJrX10 Yeah, maybe I'm still a little bitter. I don't see much use in a task list that's never updated and probably never will be. Could the tasklist at least be redirected for now, and un-redirected when the project wakes up again? Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 18:06, 20 November 2008 (UTC) Link issueAre you thinking what we were thinking? LeaveSleaves talk 19:04, 20 November 2008 (UTC) correction if I may?Actually, Spartaz (talk · contribs) closed the AfD discussion because of an anticipation of sourcing (see User talk:Spartaz#consensus.3F) (and removed the AfD tag), and Wizardman (talk · contribs) then removed the notability tagging; as the closure was "keep" w/o stipulation, and the article in question certainly doesn't show any evidence of having received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject, I replaced the tag. Further, User:Wizardman has repeatedly edited this article, reverting most if not all of my contributions without ever once discussing his, mine, or others' edits on the talk page. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 23:43, 20 November 2008 (UTC) SignatureVery well. I will change my signature. My project and my username are completely in the clear however, and I will not be changing them. User:Emperor.of.Wikia (talk) 09:11, 21 November 2008 (UTC) Regarding the MFD discussion here, I've decided instead that we should tag the project as historical (and maybe remove or archive the list of articles). I think that the templates like {{expand}} are fine, but of course the references to RFE should be removed from them.
