User talk:CambridgeBayWeather/Archive24

I have two requests for people coming here:

If you intend to revert personal attacks could you please use the {{subst:unsigned|user name|date}} template instead.
If you are here to complain about something I deleted could you please tell me the name of the name of the article that you are talking about. If you do I will respond but if you don't I will ignore you.

Thanks. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 16:20, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reykjavík Airport

Hi man, thanks for the welcome.

Regarding the airport then the english homepage is outdated, if you can, which I doubt then you can read the Icelandic Homepage which is correct regarding the runways. [1]. 06/24 is not in operation any longer but nice that someone is looking after me anyway.

Concerning the deletion of "The Thutty Valas"

The Thutty Valas is an Indian rap group my friends and I created as children, and we have spent the past 5 months working on new albums, only to find, to our great dismay, that our page has been deleted due to being a "non-notable bio"! Please reconsider the deletion; we have a growing number of supporters and have made over 1000$ selling our records. Does this not constitute a "notable" biography? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.162.48.110 (talk • contribs) 03:41, 1 August 2006.

I deleted a redirect to a non-existant article. I see that you already asked King of Hearts (who delted the article) about this User talk:King of Hearts/Archive/2006.07#Regarding the deletion of "The Thutty Valas" where you threatened him. So no I will not restore it. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 08:30, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

..for reverting the vandalism to my userpage. Cheers. Lectonar 08:14, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In reply to the quest

Well I am a Pollard myself and my first question was to see if anyone had heard of my fathers company. And my sister told me that the person who shot Nelson was a Pollard....I dunno if this was a lie or not, and Jack was a concorde engineer, just wondered if anyone had heard of him either. Thats my obssesion. Thanks for answering the questions anyway :)

Hope you like the article John Pollard (1787-1868). CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 19:17, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Troy J. Rose

Dear Mr. CambridgeBayWeather

         I know that you are very busy with your work, but I would like to bring to your attention a recent article I found about myself.

That is me Troy J. Rose. The creator of that article Le Sophisticate has called and informed me that you have been mercilessly editing his articles because of a copyright violation. I have looked the article in question over and made sure that it was rewritten to the fullest extent.

         I would like the page to stay the same.

I would like my face to be known. I have looked all over the Internet and made sure that there were no more violations. If there are any more send a message to the creator of the aritcle and do not change the page, I will make sure he changes it myself. I will be visiting the site more now that I know I'm there!

                                                                  Thank you for your time,
                                                                   Troy J. Rose

Hey

Hey, I need some help with SD's.

Decadeology is a hoax, and all links to it need to be removed as they were also added by the creator of the page
The Cosmos Crystals does not assert notability/importance
Martin Dillon (musician)
- It has about a million redirects to it from non-probable typos (like Martin Dillon American Musician)
- Its creator and only contributor, User:dhruvsk, writes about a person that I think is himself (Dhruv Kapoor) at Martin_Dillon_(musician)#Personal_Life and gives his own email address in the external links. I don't know what to do about this. It doesn't seem kosher, though.

Thanks, JianLi 04:14, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose you are referring to my submission of Merope's profile to speedy deletion as vandalism. Perhaps you know that Merope added the page that I was working on to speedy deletion. I had been writing it for all of 10 minutes approximately and just registered to wikipedia in order to write the article. It seems to me that Merope is not really following the standard of "not biting the newcomers" and honestly, I don't see what was wrong with my article in the first place.

It's not even really about why it was deleted for me. It's not that I want my precious article back ever so badly. The point is that Merope set my article up for deletion less than 20 minutes after I registered to Wikipedia. The article was called "Forest History Society". It's a library that specializes in forestry.

It certainly does have a website: http://www.lib.duke.edu/forest/

It's a library. It's an invaluable resource to those wishing to find information about forestry. The organization puts out a newsletter called Forest History Today to which approximately 2000 members pay $55 per year for.

Old Settlements

I was looking across an old map of Nunavut and came across 3 communities that were not listed as official or unofficial (like Nanisivik). Upon further research I found only the fact that at least two, Padlei and Tavani, were abandoned and the third one Ennadai remains an unknown. Do you have any idea at all what these settlements are or were? I know you may probably be unaware that they even exist but since you live in Nunavut I thought you might have more information at your disposal than I. Anyway, if you do know what they are let me know, I want to fill in these last 3 blanks and finish the last unwritten Nunavut articles. Thank you. Simtropolitan 16:23 EDST, August 3rd 06.

Thanks for the information, when I Googled these communities I could find anything except I did find that Ennadai is a location for the Ennadai Lodge which was built in 2000. Once again, many thanks, I will use this information well. Simtropolitan 09:36 EDST, August 5th 06.

SLBN vs. BUV

Regaring List of airports by ICAO code: S -- OK, I believe from your reference that SLBN is Bella Union in Bolivia. There are still sites that claim the IATA code BUV is for an airport in Bella Union Uraguy, and your reference doesn't clear this up. And List_of_airports_by_IATA_code:_B doesn't list BUV. There are numerous sites that conflate the two, but I'm suspicious everyone is getting their data from the same corrupt source. I'm going to reinstate the disputed fact to just the IATA code parenthetical. Let me know if you figure this out -- I was originally working on Bella Union (disambiguation) and all I know about airports is they lose my luggage : ) -- Kendrick7 20:37, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help. I guess I was under the mistaken impression there was a 1-to-1 correlation between ICAO and IATA codes, but a closer look at the list demonstrates that isn't necessarily the case. I left a distinguish marker in there so someone won't conflate these again or, perish the thought, ends up at the wrong airport. Since we both live near a wrong Cambridge, I suppose we're used to it. Here's to hoping you don't get too many Harvard freshmen re-routed to the Great White North, though it would mean a few less jumping in front of my car. -- Kendrick7 17:34, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: DIMAS article

Would you please re-post the DIMAS article I created earlier. Don't get the impression that this is just a joke thing, as you can see the weblink at the end is valid. We are trying to use wikipedia as another medium of information regarding DIMAS and DJ Mbenga himself. The Dallas Mavericks organisation themselves are aware of DIMAS as we have emailed DJ Mbenga personally. Your help would be greatly appreciated

Fire Lord

That page is a complete waste of a page. All the information that isn't speculation is already presented on Fire Nation. The page has a grammar or spelling error every other word and looks like it was written by a 10 year old.

I've been trying to say that all the good information is already on the Fire Nation page or the bios of the three characters presented. Most the page is speculation which the Avatar Wikiproject has been deleting all of, so merging the information to Fire Nation would have no effect anyway.

My talk page doesn't load slow for me... and I don't like having the Userboxes on the profile page. H2P ^{(Yell at me for what I've done)} File:AvatarMiniLogo.jpg 16:08, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have Spartaz vote apparently. I posted my rational on the talk page for Fire Lord. If you go to the links I posted, you'll see that all the information on Fire Lord has in fact already been presented.

deletion of Oliver Lester ?

Hello, Just wondering why you deleted the Oliver Lester article, thanks.

Games named FATE

That mess with FATE is largely my fault, so I'm trying to clean it up. I created it as a redirect to Fate (computer game) because the game's creators sometimes call it "FATE" instead of "Fate". Then someone pointed out that we have an article about a non-computer game called "FATE" ... See Talk:FATE for more details.

I've just edited FATE (role-playing game) to use Template:Otheruses4. Feel free to revert me. Cheers from southern Australia, CWC(talk) 18:00, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oliver Lester

Hello,

Just responding to the email regarding your reply to the deletion of the Oliver Lester article.

Whilst I appreciate that he may not have come to the attention of the wider world as of yet, he is somewhat of a "cult" figure in certain parts of London. I understand that this may seem insignificant to most of the world, as you have previously explained, but there a lot of articles on the Wikipedia database, which are focused on somewhat of a "local" nature.

However, I do understand that in your position as an administrator that you do have an obligation to uphold a certain element of quality control. And thus, before you decide to make any decision regarding the publishing of this particular article, please can you take into consideration this new information regarding his relevance to the Wikipedia database.

Many Thanks

http://countrystudies.us/moldova/37.htm from that link what exactly do you understand? That it was held a referendum for a Union to Romania? If you understand that you didn't bother to read it too well. Please take a look again. I can make a search on google also to find 3 sites like you did, but please read carefully...--Noi s e t tes 16:19, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly as you pointed very corectly: It says that in the referendum people voted to keep the territory the way it was Now, to every constitution when is adopted people vote for "keeping the territory integral" See referendum from Romania of 2003. --Noi s e t tes 16:49, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

deleting The Duelists

Hi, I keep trying to add anew group to a list and it keeps getting deleted..can you tell me why? thanks, Sarah

Wii disk

"(Although same size as DVD Wii article says these ared different. Removed speedy) " I "Ctrl+F"-ed disc to bring up anything in the article mentioning discs, all I get is.

"accepts both 12 cm Wii Optical Discs and 8 cm optical discs" "12cm Wii optical disc (4.7 GB Single layer or 8.5 GB Dual Layer)"

That's a plain DVD it doesn't say anything about it being differant. Unless you're seeing something I'm not.70.101.201.248 13:59, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It needs the seperate dongle to play DVD movies, the games are still stored on DVDs. This is the same thing that happened with the Xbox. The xbox games are stored on DVDs, but the Xbox can NOT play DVD movies. Unless you buy a "dongle".[2]Wii is the same, games are stored on DVDs, the system uses a DVD drive. But you can't play DVD movies on it without the add-on. 70.101.201.248 14:10, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo - Shinken

I was listing it because I was preparing to write the article. I like to create the catagories first before attacking it head on. I do believe this article will be a valuable asset for Bo-bobo fans.
