Speedy deletion declined: Explorers Program at Newark Museum

Hello Andrewpmk. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Explorers Program at Newark Museum, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Article claims coverage in reliable sources. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 02:26, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I appreciate your opinions on the deletion of my addition to the "Paraphilia" page. I understand your concern as not all of us are Christians or even Monotheists. I respect your work and you obviously have contributed greatly to the education of not only young people, but those of all ages. I would very much like to be able to put factual information into several articles, but I am really just an "Open Air" type of minister. Once again, thanks for your explanations as I am new to Wikipedia and how everything works out; but I am excited to learn so I can also begin to contribute.

	Hello I don't understand why you have undo my postings. Our web site contains technical information which directly relates to the pages I've added to. Tomevans23 (talk) 19:27, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Oh dear. In America in 19th century it became the custom that women, on marrying, just added their husband's surname, as Ann Hathaway Shakespeare. This is not the custom in any European country, where a variety of different conventions are used. I do not see it as a useful exercise to attempt to impose this clumsy version of nomenclature on other countries and times, where it merely confuses anyone attempting to find the person in the original records under a name they did not use. Does that make sense to you? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.19.197.67 (talk) 22:14, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

this really got me scared, for a second I felt like a vandal :P, It looks like you new here? you're doing a great job, fighting vandals! Yeah wikipedia is uncensored, so profanity is open here, and thanks for the heads up :) Prabash.Akmeemana 15:52, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

So anything you don't agree with is classified as vandalism? HAES preachings can kill people, plain and simple. It's much as if a group posted saying ERP - Eating Rat Poison is a stellar and healthy activity, blatantly false, misleading and dangerous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zshadez (talk • contribs) 01:21, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, and Thank you

When I edited the page for Isopropyl Myristate, somehow, I inadvertently deleted what you replaced. Thank you for taking care of that, someone else told me I had done so, my fault, and I hope I don't repeat that, because I don't really even know what or how I did it.

Lafayette Federal Credit Union

Hello Andrewpmk - In what ways were my postings to Lafayette Federal Credit Union not constructive? They provided informative data about my credit union for Wikipedia users to learn more about. I have been through this process several times to correct the page. If you are claiming my page is not constructive, then please provide some specifics or help me to fix it so my page does not keep on getting deleted! I don't see how my edits were any different than those of various other financial institutions on Wikipedia. I used Navy Federal Credit Union's page to model my own....so why can NFCU's stay and mine continues to be deleted? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kfuzqcuoh498 (talk • contribs) 12:37, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Wait... Who are you, exactly?

Hello, Andrewpmk. I'm not quite sure who you are, or why you are judging whether or not my (or any) contributions are "constructive." How is it not constructive to include an actor's current role when it falls into a category of roles being discussed--in this case, lesbian characters, of which Lena in Ray Donovan is one? My other changes were "constructive" because they created a more consistent and clearer sentence. For consistency's sake, if one is discussing films, one should include all the films' directors or include none of the films' directors. Why throw in the name of one director (in this case, Terry Zwigoff) but leave out all the others? The same goes for character identifications/descriptions. If one character gets an identifying description (in this case, "the lesbian lover of"), the other characters should as well. As far as sentence clarity, when one lists items that contain commas, as I did in my changes, it is helpful and correct to separate the items with semi-colons. I am an editor by trade, so I do know what I'm talking about regarding consistency, clarity, and overall good sentence structure. Anyway, the real point here is that whether or not someone's contributions are "constructive" is always debatable. Wikipedia is what it is because everyone is allowed to contribute, so, unless a contribution is blatantly inaccurate or offensive, please do not interfere. Your personal opinions about a contribution's "constructiveness" are not grounds for undoing or deleting other users' work. I hope you understand this, and I hope no further action will be necessary. Thank you. Thevictor99 (talk) 00:20, 3 August 2013 (UTC)TheVictor99

Hello again. Thank you for getting rid of that strange coding. I did notice a few lines of code-like characters at the top of the page when I previewed the article in the VisualEditor, but I figured it was part of the new editor. Since it's only in the beta stage, the appearance of code on the final page may be a bug that needs fixing. I did not, as you seem to assume, intentionally add it. Why would I? I will add, however, that I've found both messages you've left me to communicate a rather condescending tone, and I, like most people, do not appreciate that. Thevictor99 (talk) 02:05, 3 August 2013 (UTC)TheVictor99

hi

hi - please check again. i also advise you either not to erase my changes or just alter them because the defenition sentance of 3d coding is not friendly as it was to people who are not fermilierChronomaster5779 (talk) 05:58, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Margaret Lloyd George

What part of "Updated article to ensure it matches the Stevenson article. Stevenson's position as his mistress verified in sources in Stevenson's article and in every history book, as well as her diaries published in 1971" led you to think my edit was vandalism? You have just reminded me what I left this place. 213.233.148.21 (talk) 04:10, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Not vandalism

Hello. FYI: This edit wasnt vandalism and/or an edit test, but an valid entry on the disambiguation page. But the entry was alredy on the list, so it should be removed. Christian75 (talk) 10:26, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Regarding to structure follows strategy

Hi, first sorry that I accidentally deleted your original postings. It is a very informative and helpful. Everything seems correct, the only thing I do concern is the antithesis part. It seems that the counter proposal which is structure causes strategy was first suggested by Bower (1970) in his Managing the resource allocation process: A study of corporate planning and investment. Hall & Saias indeed has proposed a similar idea (as suggested in the current wiki page), however, their ideas are proposed later in 1980.

Hope you may take a look at it, and thank you for your time.67.255.112.236 (talk) 01:40, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure who you are, or why you are judging whether or not my (or any) contributions are "constructive". Please read the full article to decide for yourself about the constructivness of my edit, before jugding me.. or else leave it as it. Dont think its your call to make this judgement.

76.120.178.238's edit to Jefferson County

I have undone your reversion to this edit and, on the user's talk page, challenged your complaint. What Wikipedia is not is over 7000 words long; a newbie should be directed there only if a particular section is specified so the editor knows what to look for. Your complaint that his/her edit's "depth or nature of detail are not consistent with our objectives" is hopelessly vague; please do not use this expression again. Depth and detail can reasonably be expected of an extensive edit, but not of one that merely adds four words. Don't bite the newbies! Peter Brown (talk) 16:55, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

Eydie Gormé

Thanks for catching the goof. I had the article open in two editing windows -- one full-page and one just the "Music samples" section. I performed a cut-and paste and somehow got the minor section edit pasted over the full article. — Quicksilver^{T @} 15:40, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Oatsoatsham

My edit to Lorene Drive was necessary, because the info box I deleted contained only a plea for the former lead singer of the group to return- clearly not objective material. if I made a coding snafu and deleted something actually important, please let me know on Oatsoatsham's talk page. Otherwise, look at the previous edition of the article to see if an edit is good, so I don't have to (twice)

·Update: I did not delete what I thought I did, or deleted too much (-890? Whaaaaaat?) thanks for the clarification and sorry for showing up irate on your talk page. Oatsoatsham (66.231.201.147) over and out.

Sorry about deleting the infobox! That was completely unintentional! It really should be have instead of has in that sentence though!

We know of at least two students that are NOT. So we change the word "All" to "most". We are curious as to why that was removed as it is neither copyrighted material nor is it incorrect.
