[edit] Thank you soo much
Thank you for your kind welcome message. I was affraid that my additions were unwelcome as many users have been un-profanely attacking me. I will continue to add my knowlege in an un-biased fasion to various Wikipedia pages. I promise to maintain compliance and only add secondarily sourceable material and otherwise independantly verifiable information. It pleases me to take part in the Wikipedia project.
[edit] ??
Any particular reason why my entry was deleted while I was editing it? It seems EN World, also a D20/D&D website is special enough to have it's own Wikipedia entry but Realms of Evil which is older is not?
[edit] Kid Radd
I accept your judgement because I have no other options, but I could've done without the insult, mild though it was. *sigh* --Kizor 19:49, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if you felt, insulted, it wasn't intended for anyone but a more general audience. Please accept my humble apologies. Yanksox 19:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Eh. Forget it. I know it was general. I was worked up because I honestly thought I had for once foiled the three users who are doing significant damage to our coverage of webcomics due to their overrigid-- and now I'm trying to draw you in. The point is, I probably wanted to be insulted. I'll go clear my head. --Kizor 20:14, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it. I don't object to recreation if notability and references are drawn in. Also, you can go to WP:DRV. Yanksox 20:16, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Would that I could. What's demanded is multiple large published works with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy (about a solely online art form that's perhaps a decade old and has next to no mainstream presence), or perhaps a notable independent award (there's one large source of awards, which they reject so perhaps four webcomics qualify for this, tops) or a well-known independent publisher (which, due to the unique nature of this one, would here be either pointless, infeasible or physically impossible). Notability? One of the most notable ones online had to be saved with DRV. Those are the rules; applicability matters not at all. My case was lost in AfD, it wouldn't stand a chance in DRV. --Kizor 21:01, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mall at Stonecrest
The page was already considered for deletion back in April 2005.. the result was no consensus. Are articles supposed to be considered for deletion more than once? (see Talk:Mall at Stonecrest) drumguy8800 C T 21:36, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- GNAA was nominated for deletion 18 times before being deleted. You can take something to AfD more than once, though chances decrease it. Yanksox 22:43, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Now that we're on the subject, are there any other rules? Are those wishing for an article's deletion allowed to take it to a vote every few months until they get the result they want? --Kizor 00:21, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- In theory they could, but I know where you are going with your train of thought now. If something survives AfD, chances are that it will usually again unless new facts are brought to the light. Yanksox 00:43, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Priory Community School
Heya. I may have my mop now, but I need some advice regarding the goings-on at the above talk page: it's reasonably clear that the original text of the article was a copyvio, which has since been removed and the situation explained to the creator in several places. However, should the article be deleted then selectively undeleted in order to remove the original copyvio? What happens here? :) Daveydweeb (chat/review!) 23:55, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Taken care of on the talk page. Yanksox 00:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How do you know if someone is an editor/administrator
I have reason to believe someone is impersonating an administrator and would like to know how you coule tell the difference? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Americanbeauty415 (talk • contribs) 06:33, 14 December 2006 (UTC).
- It's pretty hard to impersonate an administrator considering how they're basically just normal editors with a few extra tools allowed by the software. Who are you talking about? --Deskana talk 13:29, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Deadmin
You have been indefinitely blocked for depriving Wikipedia of a good admin by desysopping yourself. --Deskana talk 23:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
On a more serious note... it's a shame, really. I hope you find what you're looking for by having requested this. :-) --Deskana talk 23:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Just to let everyone know, Yanksox requested that I announce that he's leaving (allegedly permanently). I'm not sure if he's made this clear, so forgive me if I'm expounding a point. Allow me to be the first to say that he'll be missed. Srose (talk) 22:58, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
- Truly sad to see you go. I hope you'll come back, someday, but if not, then the best of luck, my friend.--Kchase T 23:41, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikilogos
I've noticed you're quite involved here, you might be interested in my proposal for Wikipedia use logo variations created by members of the wiki community to mark national and international awareness days, Remembrance Days, notable anniversaries, and observance days. Please comment on Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Logo Variations and on my talk page. Thanks! frummer 03:28, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
