Please place your talkback and you've got mail notices below this line in this section (no subsection necessary). I plan to delete them when I have read them. Thank you.

Thanks for helping out with anti-vandalism work, but please go a little slower; there are currently two reports you've made to AIV that aren't vandalism. --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:58, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your concern, allow me to explain:

• Rudi argento (talk · contribs) has been adding names without references (here too), changing names, again without references, and inserting incomprehensible text.
• BobDylanFan1994 (talk · contribs) has been removing maintenance templates at Elton John & Ray Cooper 1995 Tour, Face To Face 1995, and Face To Face 1998 without explanation and without fixing the problems they highlighted, editing disruptively at Elton John 2011 World Tour, adding unsourced content, and removing referenced information and a reference.

To my eye, these all qualify as vandalism.   — Jeff G.  ツ 15:06, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay in reply, this subject is probably a bit stale now. Generally to be vandalism, there needs to be an intent to disrupt/damage things, not just that effect. Doing thing wrong and messing things up isn't vandalism, and usually calls for a note to the user rather than a report to AIV. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:27, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly, four notes to User talk:BobDylanFan1994 have (through your post above) been ineffective in stemming the effects.   — Jeff G.  ツ 11:57, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to take a second to thank you for the help you gave in my mediation issue; I know I've got some technical issues to work out, and your attempt at assisitce really is appreciaoted. Andering J. REDDSON —Preceding undated comment added 21:38, 20 August 2011 (UTC).

Jeff,

I did not intended to remove the speedy deletion tag. I did infact reply on the talk page as to why the deletion was unwise.

Thanks,

Hi, I just received a warning from you about the Kyle Lafferty page. I can promise that I never wrote those comments and if you look I was trying to delete comments accusing him of being a racist and change the transfer fee that had been changed to something stupid. I am a huge Rangers supporter and I can prove this if needed, I would never Ever write anything like that link apparently says I did. Is it not possible there was a mistake and it is showing up as me that added that text when all I was doing was deleting the derogatory text?

Surely the fact I have gone to this trouble to message you as well shows that something may be wrong, I appreciate you are just doing your job and I actually think you all do a great job so is there any chance you could look into this please? As I said I am willing to prove my identity and prove I am a Rangers supporter if needed. This is actually really annoying as I am sure you can understand.

Thanks,

In addition to the info on your user talk page, why don't you sign your posts, use Edit Summaries, and create an account?   — Jeff G.  ツ 12:06, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jeff G.. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for File:L.PC Repair logo.jpg, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review the criteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion, proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Reaper Eternal (talk) 15:50, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry if I was overzealous. The image is copyrighted and promotional, and it was used to promote article L.PC Repair (since deleted) by its uploader WP:SPA 19therealest (talk · contribs) (since blocked), which article is unlikely to be recreated with verifiable references and a valid claim to notability by Wednesday, 31 August 2011 (the time limit for WP:SD#F5). Having reviewed the pages you suggested, I find that WP:SD#G11, like all general speedy deletion criteria, can apply to any type of page, including files, per "These apply to all namespaces (and so apply to articles, redirects, user pages, talk pages, files, etc)" at WP:SD#General. Furthermore, your suggestions WP:PROD and WP:PRODBLP do not apply to files, the former and WP:FFD each take seven days, and the latter takes ten days. The whole point of my tag was immediate eligibility for deletion per WP:DENY, over and above WP:SD#F5. Thus, I reject your entire argument and boilerplate above, and ask that you please retract it forthwith (deleting this response and your Edit Summary for this edit too).   — Jeff G.  ツ 03:55, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

CSD F5 (orphaned fair-use image), which covers this type of image, had already been applied by Sfan 00 IMG (talk · contribs). CSD G11 does not apply since the image is not promotional—it is a company logo that could be used for critical discussion of the company. We have many fair-use company logo on Wikipedia being used for critical commentary on the company. WP:DENY definitely does not apply as that was an essay on dealing with trolls/long term vandals, and the uploader is certainly not a troll. In addition, when you said "delete the response and edit summary", did you mean revert? Thanks. Reaper Eternal (talk) 16:26, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Were the Bradenton Marauders really founded in 1989 or is it actually 1957. If the team was founded in 1957 well it should say it was founded in 1957 instead of 1989 and it should then have the information that the team was affiliated with the phillies under affiliates. Also the information should also be in the navbox as well. Just because the information is on one page doesn't mean it is not allowed to be on another page. I am not making up history, im telling what the history really is when the club was founded. I am also not trying to copyright either. I only change the wording in the sentence to make it more pleasing and less confusing if someone else was reading the article. I don't change the information itself. Im also not taking credit for the work either. Do you actually have information that the Tampa team is not related to the marauders. Yes, I did become an official user. Also what was the problem with the blueclaws article. There was nothing wrong about adding J.P. Riddle Stadium were the franchise previously played under franchise history. I am a blueclaws fan by the way. Patriotsball (talk) 03:03, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is that info from a reliable source? Can we verify it? Thanks!   — Jeff G.  ツ 03:07, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jeff,

In relation to the John flowers page I work for Mr Flowers as a staffer and was asked to add the content as it is constructive to the man himself.

How can I go about locking this page?

Kind Regards

Thanks for taking the time to provide me with those details! Considering the speech was to a parliment and does detail information that is in public interest, will providing the direct link to the speech on the NSW parliament's website stop this from being removed?

The statements I made in the dyscalculia article are merely "sky is blue" type statements. Do they really need to be sourced?--RJR3333 (talk) 20:48, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How is the truth vandalism? What about freedom of speech. Just because a page says something doesn't mean its the truth. I was simply fixing it with my edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.118.13.190 (talk) 22:10, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have made some very damning accusations in your edits to Orlando Culinary Academy. Are they available from a reliable source? Can we verify them? Thanks!   — Jeff G.  ツ 22:13, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your note on my talk page: I blanked the page (my new article, on Edith Roelker Curtis) for under a minute, as part of my process of moving in the text for the new article and replacing incorrect text that I had inadvertently pasted in. It does take a little bit of jostling around sometimes to get a new article started. You noted that this "is confusing to readers," but I had only established the article a few seconds earlier, so it's not likely that this created much confusion for visitors. Ercbio (talk) 22:25, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You can overwrite in one edit, there is no need to blank. The second version of that article looks SO much better, well done!   — Jeff G.  ツ 22:28, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jeff,

unregistered users made "official" the transfer of Diego Lugano from Fener to PSG. This is not yet confirmed by PSG or Fenerbahçe. Lugano's agent even dismissed the news after being interviewed on RMC radio tonight (of course, does not mean the transfer is not imminent, but...) : http://www.rmcsport.fr/editorial/176756/rien-n-est-fait-pour-lugano/

The page should probably be reverted for now to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Diego_Lugano&oldid=446835575 Since you seem to be a senior Wiki user, you may have a way to prevent vandalism... until the transfer is official... or not (Juventus is/was also interested in Lugano) Cheers

Hi, I just got a new notification in talk page that you have stated about my edit in Afghanistan article. my edit was just about the ranking of Afghanistan in number of population and the edit was that i have updated the ranking of Afghanistan and the reference is from Wikipedia it self.--Ahmadfaisalsidiqi (talk) 18:32, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Please see Wikipedia:Wikipedia is a tertiary source and WP:ASR. If the information on that other Wikipedia page (which you consider the source) has a primary or secondary source, you should be able to cite that source and eliminate the middleman (or middlepage in this case).   — Jeff G.  ツ 20:28, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that Wikipedia is not a source to be mentioned, i just updated one line that earlier it was written that Afghanistan has population of 28 million making it the 42nd most populous, now that the population is 31 million, it has been ranked as the 39th most populous. i updated this line. check here for more information about the population that Afghanistan has, and then you update it List of countries by population--Ahmadfaisalsidiqi (talk) 08:37, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Curious as to why you did this and warned the IP; the message says that if the user agrees with the bot assessment of the article, the user can remove the message, no? Logan _Talk ^{Contributions} 02:56, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The figure change in acreage corresponds to the figure in the source: it was incorrect before GeaguaDM corrected it. The remaining material is certainly sourced. I've restored the edits.
