Allegations of Chinese apartheid

Hi. I appreciate your clearly-stated comment. Here's a follow-up question I placed immediately after your comment. I would appreciate your replying under my question, if you don't mind. Otherwise, perhaps on my Talk page? HG | Talk 02:08, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks xDanielx for the helpful clarification. Nevertheless, can't a move be part of the closure decision? For example, may a move be an "additional action" recommended by an Admin or stipulated as a condition of consensus? From WP:GD: "An AFD decision is either to "keep" or "delete" the article. AFD discussions which fail to reach rough consensus default to "keep". The AFD decision may also include a strong recommendation for an additional action such as a "merge" or "redirect". In many cases, the decision to "keep" or "delete" may be conditional on the community's acceptance of the additional action." Your further advice would be appreciated.

I tried to revise my proposal on the AfD. Feedback welcome if you have a chance. But I also noticed your vote, which did not mention the Title. So, if you don't mind, I'd like to pose for you the questions I asked G-Dett. Do you think the Article Name is neutral? Do you think it is more neutral than the variants I or others have floated? Could you accept a (Keep conditioned on a) Move to a more neutral name, if that seemed to be the direction of a general consensus? Even if you are not prepared to answer at this juncture, please let me know on my Talk. HG | Talk 03:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for the vote of confidence, so to speak. I've now tried to revise to make it clearer. Should I be revising this way? (That is, modifying the text of my AfD Note?) How likely is it that previous voters would signify their movement toward this proposal? Perhaps I need to trust others to deal with that aspect? Or do you think this exercise is futile? Thanks, reply to my talk if you are so inclined. HG | Talk 04:35, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much for the barnstar, I like that kind of appreciation. I've also replied to your latest suggestions. Ciao. HG | Talk 12:29, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

De-briefing request. Now that the AfD is closed, I bet you'd be a good person to explain to me: what should I take away from this experience? (Well, I do know I personally spent too much time and got too detailed.) It is true that the OR synthesis claim was strong, as I at least implied. BTW did you notice how the Cuba AfD turned out? Your advice had a ripple effect thre. If you've moved on to other things, that's fine too. Take care and thanks again. HG | Talk 03:07, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. I'll be posting more q's either w/cabal or the Israel allegations talk. Would appreciate your answers there or my talk. Re your last note, can you identify for me all the WP procedures that would result in an Article name change? RM, AfD, what else? tx, HG | Talk 18:33, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Allegations of Israeli Apartheid

Hi again. I would greatly appreciate your feedback on the framework, tone and content of my effort at Talk:Allegations of Israeli apartheid#Exploring the grounds for a consensus. Please reply on there or on my Talk, as appropriate. Thanks! HG | Talk 12:47, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. Perhaps you could advise me. I noticed that the Delete-Voters hadn't responded much. Do you have any sense of whether they will soon? Do I bear some responsibility to find out or to not move forward absent their comments? Thanks for your consideration. Pls reply to my Talk, if you have a chance.

DRV comment appears misplaced

You have a DRV comment in Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 August 7, the "Isabel Ice" section that appears more appropriate for the immediately following "Saige Thompson" section. Please review and move if it is misplaced. GRBerry 22:55, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment on the YATE DRV is out-of-context. The deletion being challenged is a G4 speedy from 7 August, and not the 4 August AFD. Cheers. – Chacor 01:43, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think I agree with you on the G4 issue (I was aware of the G4 argument upon posting, though I didn't mention it), but I'll take a closer look at it. Thanks for at least letting me know. — xDanielx^Talk 02:46, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I should've made myself clearer. The G4 occurred after the article was recreated following its AFD deletion. When I asked the DRV nominator at the DRV itself,

“

Is this DRV for the deletion debate AFD, or for today's speedy deletion as G4? – Chacor 13:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
- Today's speedy deletion, to which I can't see how G4 could be applicable. Mellentm 13:16, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

”

So the DRV is meant to review the speedy and not the AFD. – Chacor 08:18, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Google cache

As a non-admin, it can be hard to evaluate deletion reviews on deleted articles. For ones that had been around a few days, Google's cache (or one of the many mirrors, such as Answers.com) can be helpful. This is why we added the "cache" link to the template at the top; it can take you directly to a cached version of the article, at least for a while. GRBerry 18:19, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, GRB. I've been using Google from time to time for that purpose, but I didn't know about the "cach" link. — xDanielx^Talk 18:22, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Just in case you don't end up seeing it on the DRV page.... I just wanted to stop by here and say thank you for reconsidering your words. I appreciate it and would not want you to think that it had gone unnoticed. --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 18:55, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the kind words :). Sorry for the aggressive language, it slipped out without me noticing. — xDanielx^Talk 18:57, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Scholarships

Just letting you know that the location is WP:UNI, sorry for giving the wrong link earlier. Mister.Manticore 17:07, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem -- thanks for letting me know. — xDanielx^Talk 20:11, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vistas High School

The article has been renamed correctly as Vistas High School Program. There is a discussion on a possible merge to its parent article at Klein ISD Merge. Your input is welcome. – Dreadstar † 22:40, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grieg's music in popular culture

Thank you for your input and comments on this matter. Bearian 01:53, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for working on it - you did a very nice job. — xDanielx^Talk 09:17, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
