===Talk===

If you'd like to add a comment, feel free. Just click the + button next to "Edit this page" above (may vary if you're using a custom skin). But please type <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> at the end to add your name and the date and time.

'''Note that problems which any administrator could resolve are best posted on one of the various [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard|administrators' noticeboards]].'''

====Protection and unprotection====
If you have the capability to unprotect something, I trust you to determine whether a page I protected should be unprotected or not. No need to ask.

====RFA messages====
*If you've been promoted, congratulations, now go and patrol [[Special:Newpages]] or something. No need to leave me a message here, I participate in many RFAs so it would probably only clog the place up.
*If your nomination failed, or I opposed you, then I hope you've taken on board what you've learned. If you want clarification or advice from me, please feel free to leave a message, but otherwise there is no need.
*'''That is to say, please do not leave me RFA messages, unless you need a response. They will be removed. Thank you.'''

===Email===
I would much prefer you leave me a message here rather than emailing me. If you are blocked, then obviously you can't. If I blocked you, then email me (see the toolbox), but if some other admin blocked you, email that admin instead. (See [[Special:Log/block]] for more.) If the block was for violating the [[WP:3RR|three-revert rule]], and you are going to claim you were reverting vandalism, then first read [[Wikipedia:Vandalism#What_vandalism_is_not|what vandalism is not]] and [[User:William M. Connolley/3RR|an admin's view of the 3RR]].

===Linking===
If your message is about an article, an AFD, or the like, please link to it. To do this, copy the main heading at the top of the page (like User talk:Stifle for this page) and paste it between <nowiki>[[ and ]]</nowiki>.

===Replies===
*Please reply to me here if possible.
*If your message is about an AFD or other discussion that you want me to (re)contribute to, I will generally not reply other than by checking the page and adding a comment.
*Unless your message or your talk page advises otherwise, I will reply here and copy my reply to your talk page.

===Archiving===
I archive this page semi-regularly, mainly when it gets over 32KB or we get a new month. The exception is posts which I consider personal attacks or incivil or the like, which may get selectively archived faster.

Sorry but I never wrote the Cinderella Complex article, pls bother someone else with your Verifiability. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Janno|Janno]] ([[User talk:Janno|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Janno|contribs]]) 22:05, 9 December 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== [[Characters of Friday Night Lights]] ==
Hi. You prodded [[Characters of Friday Night Lights]]. However, I fail to see how it fails to be anymore unencyclopedic than any other list of characters for a television series. They are used for summary style in the main articles. If you prefer it be renamed as a list, that's a fair assertion. But if the issue is with the content, I encourage you to look at precedent. Either way, thanks for your work prodding content that does belong here. Cheers. [[User:SorryGuy|SorryGuy]] 22:56, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
:I went ahead and removed your prod on the above article. If you could contact me on how you feel the article needs to be improved to be equal to those of similar content, I will be more than glad to attempt to make them. However, simply unencyclopedic does not provide me with enough detail. Thanks. <small><span style="border:1px solid #FF3333;padding:1px;">[[User:SorryGuy|<b>SorryGuy</b>]] [[User_talk:SorryGuy|<font style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#FF3333;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</font>]]</span></small> 02:41, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

== Re: 3RR barnstar comment ==

''In response to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2F3RR&diff=176744368&oldid=176684617 your comment]''
:Lol! :P Actually, it looks like more work than it was: I wanted to field test the latest incarnation of [http://wikitools.annoyed.org/3rr.php my 3RR script] that might make 3RR vios easier to both report and verify. It's not really intelligent in that it can tell which diffs actually are or are not reverts, but it makes it a lot easier for editors to simply remove the non-3rr edits (instead of spending an hour in cutpaste hell) as well as admins to verify whatever's presented (especially if using the popups script). I was probably gonna end up sticking it on the toolserver for public use if it seems like a good idea. If you get a chance, lemme know what you think/what could be improved/etc. Cheers :) --[[User:Slakr|<span style="color:teal;font-weight:bold;">slakr</span>]]<small><sup>\&nbsp;[[User talk:Slakr|talk]]&nbsp;/</sup></small> 07:18, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

== Ballet Fantastique ==

Hi,
I have been working really hard to create a page for Ballet Fantastique (a very interesting and unique non-profit dance organization in Oregon). You deleted the page because you said it lacked significance. I have looked at other ballet company's Wikipedia pages and have been modeling this page after existing pages so I won't get deleted. I also added a lot of source material. What do you suggest I write to satisfy your standards?

:You would need to establish that your company meets [[WP:ORG]] or [[WP:CORP]] as appropriate. Publications cited to establish notability should be major, e.g. statewide or national newspaper or television coverage, rather than a minor title within one city.
:If you think you've already done that, you can file a [[Wikipedia:Deletion review|deletion review]] which is a place where you can request an amendment to the deletion decision. Recreating pages that are deleted is not the way to go, however, and I have had to disable creation of the page [[Ballet Fantastique]].

== Mediating/solving conflicts with [[User:The Dragon of Bosnia]] ==

'''Hi, again''', I continue to have problems with [[User:The Dragon of Bosnia]] in relation to the [[Bosnian Mujahideen]] article which I have requested mediation for. While that article is protected (to avoid further vandalism from him and [[User:Grandy Grandy]]) he is deleting links to it on other, related articles (example from the Mujahideen article [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mujahideen&diff=177198253&oldid=176487914]). He seems to be claiming that these links should be deleted since the Bosnian Mujahideen article is being mediated. However, this seems a bit backward to me since the reason it is being mediated is because he was vandalizing it in the first place. Anyways, I am getting a bit fed up with what I see as [[User:The Dragon of Bosnia]]'s continous vandalism. Do you have any suggestions for 'dealing' with this issue (if it can/should be 'dealt' with at all)? I realize that editing Wikipedia can be frustrating but I really want to avoid getting into edit wars with a user who, in my opinion, seems more interested in pushing some kind of Bosniak nationalist agenda. Any suggestion from you would be much appreciated.[[User:Osli73|Osli73]] ([[User talk:Osli73|talk]]) 15:09, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
:I am too busy to deal with that immediately but will look into it later today or tomorrow. [[User:Stifle|Stifle]] ([[User talk:Stifle|talk]]) 15:14, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
::'''OK. I can wait''' (though the guy is problematic, here's the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alija_Izetbegovi%C4%87&curid=196318&diff=177197028&oldid=177063266 latest] politically motivated POV edit). I can accept time consuming edit discussions, but, to me, this is beyond that.[[User:Osli73|Osli73]] ([[User talk:Osli73|talk]]) 15:21, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
:::If you need something more urgent you will need to use [[WP:ANI]]. [[User:Stifle|Stifle]] ([[User talk:Stifle|talk]]) 15:27, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
::::Thank's for the tip. This isn't something that requires a quick action but rather an ongoing/recurring problem. I've raised the issue on the Talk page and will wait to see if there's any reaction there. No hurry.[[User:Osli73|Osli73]] ([[User talk:Osli73|talk]]) 15:31, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
:::::I don't think there's a lot I can do here. For you I would suggest an article [[WP:RFC|RFC]] and/or a user conduct one if The Dragon of Bosnia continues to make unhelpful edits. You also have the option of using [[WP:AE]] because of the ArbCom ruling in the Macedonia case. [[User:Stifle|Stifle]] ([[User talk:Stifle|talk]]) 22:31, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

== Saeb Erekat ==

There is a huge problem at this article, whereby the consensus of careful and literate editors has been systematically over-ridden. By my count there is just one editor wishing to make out that Erekat is a lier, whereas there are (or have been) seven opposed. I can see nothing in the [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] or common-sense for the former position, and lots against it (with BLP concerns as well). Administrator action would be very much appreciated - but not on the article.
