Please add new comments below this line. Thanks. --Coolcaesar (talk) 06:42, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated List of shopping malls in the United States, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of shopping malls in the United States (3rd nomination) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 22:02, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not delete credible, sourced, and encyclopedically significant material to intentionally bias an article with a particular point of view. Thank you. Adraeus (talk) 06:48, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, I have the right person. Since you think you are not, however, you are likely to have unintentionally deleted my contribution when you reverted the other user's deletions. See the section Incidents of corruption? If that is the case, my apologies for coming on strong. Adraeus (talk) 07:45, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know :P I was parodying Carl Rogers from the newsgroup misc.transport.road. seicer | talk | contribs 05:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Image:Ciscosystemsheadquarters.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Ciscosystemsheadquarters.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Gary King (talk) 03:25, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to tip you off, there's been a reply on Talk:Facebook about your question regarding your image showing the Facebook headquarters. You've clearly been putting the hard yards in. Thanks. John Nevard (talk) 15:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings, friend!! Thanks for backing me up on Law clerk. Would you be interested in helping me round out Courts of the United States? I'm looking to add links (red or not) for every level or type of court in every state, with external links if possible to back them up. Should make for a good linkfarm for people looking to grow articles on those courts. Cheers! bd2412 T 04:38, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Closed deletion review discussion - You could have asked me, being the one who deleted it. I did try to email you when I deleted the image, but your email is not enabled. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:14, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It would help to have your e-mail enabled. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 23:01, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you choose not to enable your e-mail, then please e-mail me through my enabled link. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 01:00, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would likewise email you, but here is fine; I'm not posting as a representative of the foundation in any form, but just as one Wikipedian to another. This is a bit odd, and possibly alarming for you, but I hope you don't get discouraged by this. Whatever's driving this, I'm sure it's not spite. Given a particular sort of mindset, you might even find it amusing, in a way. Anyhow, just checking in on you. If you're feeling bummed, feel free to leave me a note. – Luna Santin (talk) 13:35, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, would love to hear from you myself. :) May I email you? --Jimbo Wales (talk) 07:47, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How come I don't get messages like that -- Avi (talk) 14:39, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. However, you can use an anonymous gmail address, and you can encrypt any communication if you are worried about being identified. As for "out in the open conversation", in general I completely agree with you. However, there are times when the safety and privacy of people require that certain communication not be publicized. This is one of them. If you are willing to take our word for it, fine. If not, I would counsel contacting myself or User:Rjd0060 who may be able to explain a bit more. Thankfully, your comments about why you do not have e-mail enabled indicate that you do understand that there are exogenous privacy and safety issues that need to be addressed, which we in m:OTRS do on a daily basis. Thank you for responding. -- Avi (talk) 14:54, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
