Hi, I thought you would like to know that I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Silver Power Corporation., suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Silver Power Corporation.. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Before deciding to remove the template, however, please read WP:NOT and WP:N, as it appears this subject does not satisfy Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Regards, Accurizer13:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've nominated the article Silver Power Corporation. for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Silver Power Corporation. satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Silver Power Corporation.. Don't forget to add four tildes (˜˜˜˜) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of Silver Power Corporation. during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion. This nomination was made because the {{prod}} template discussed above has been removed. Accurizer14:02, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You have been temporarily blocked for repeatedly removing Articles for deletion notices and comments from pages in violation of the three-revert rule despite being asked not to do so. If you wish to cooperate with the community, you are welcome to do so after the block expires.
Can you please justify why Stephen Silver is "notable" enough to to be placed on a list with heads of state, hall of fame athletes, CEO's of Fortune 500 companies, etc.? AriGold14:50, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This article doesn't appear to meet WP:BIO. The closest claim to notability seems to be that he placed 7th in a tournament that had future Olympic wrestlers...and being "part of the 1985 New Zealand Cultural Exchange USA Team" doesn't sound particularly notable, either...
The way the article is written, it is very hard to figure out who the subject is and why he deserves an encyclopedi entry. Please fix it up to meet WP:STYLE; if WP:BIO isn't met, I'm going to list this page on AfD. -- Scientizzle21:48, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You had to be selected throughout the entire State of Arizona based on you wrestling skills. Actually Gary bohay was the Olympic wrestler that I wrestled and he was 8th ranked in the world during his 1988 Seoul, Olympic participation.
It might not have been your intent, but you recently removed content from David Jason Silver. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Tuspm[Leave A Message]12:11, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
For your information I meet President Bush and have a picture with him and my US Navy uniform on. This is not notable
Your edits to Jessica Simpson appear fraudulent. Stop adding references to Silver to unrelated articles. If this continues you will be blocked for an indefinite period as a vandal. -Will Beback00:11, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You have been blocked for vandalizing the encyclopedia with incessant personal references, fraudulent edits, and plagiarism. Please take the time to read over the warnings and complaints on this page and at User talk:69.10.123.4. Also, please read our core policies, Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset. You are welcome to edit here when your block expires if you can follow our policies and guidelines. -Will Beback05:11, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there! Thanks for your articles on various military personnel. When adding a stub tag to an article, you don't have to add these categories to it as well:
[[Category:American people stubs|*Military]]
[[Category:United States military stubs|*Biographical]]
[[Category:Military biographical stubs|*United States]]
The stub template will add the article to the stub category, which is in turn a child of the other categories. It looks like you copied & pasted the cats, which is redundant. Thanks! ♥ Her Pegship♥ 03:34, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, numerous administrators do not think so and have destroyed and or removed my work
If the articles are relevant and news worthy, I should be able to
For your information my 20 plus hours creating an encyclopedia for USS Simpson and numerous Navy personnel has been tampered with. To all responsible for this damage good luck in your life.
Vandalism
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. - for this edit [1]--Nobunaga2407:15, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You are not a popular person. I am finished with your project!!
Number One Fan
"If you ever visit Arizona be happy to show you around. You are my number #1 Fan."
David, I'd be a much bigger fan if I didn't have to waste my time cleaning up after you. My head hurts just looking at the Gerald F. DeConto article. Can't you at least use complete sentences? It's supposed to be quasi-professional looking, or at least a good attempt at it. If you were willing to work with people like me and Nobunaga and every other person who edits your work rather than against us, we could actually make some very good articles about people and ships that you're interested in. Instead, you do everything you can to make those articles as weak as possible, forcing others to correct your work. Do the research, write it in your own words, and try to make it as grammatically correct as you can. If you are unable to do these three things, then don't write the article. I don't write a thousand articles a week for that very reason--I try to take my time making the articles I write or contribute to as good as I can. Do I make mistakes? Sure I do. But I appreciate it when others come through and correct my mistakes and make the articles even better. We're supposed to be in this together, contributing for a common cause, not bickering over edit wars and other such nonsense. If you want help, ask for it; it's better than being forced to take it because your work cries out for it.
I suggest you do a LOT more research on DeConto. Where's the rest of his career? What else do we know about him specifically on September 11th? Does he have family he left behind? Captains usually command more than one ship--list more than just the Simpson in his opening paragraph. And when you link to Captain, note that that brings you to a page describing ALL captains on earth, which is what you don't want. You're tring to make it easier for people who are interested in learning more about this person. Specify your links to make sure it points to exactly what you're talking about. Captain should be displayed as Captain (but minus the bold text, of course) so it takes the reader directly to the section on military naval captains, not army captains, not AF captains, not USMC captains, not airline captains, not Love Boat captains. In the correct secion, the reader who is unfamiliar with naval ranks and positions will learn why being a captain in the Navy is signficiant, particularly in the case of the subject in question. Otherwise, you haven't told them why they should even care about this person. After all, are you writing this just to see your work on the internet (you already have that on your own personal webpage that I'm such a big fan of), or are you writing about these people and ships so that other people can know what they did and why they're significant, too? I sure hope it's the latter.
And thanks for the offer, but I doubt I'll find myself in AZ any day soon. But be sure that if I do, I'll look you up, Tiger. And then we can have this entire discussion all over again, face-to-face. Won't that be fun? --ScreaminEagle16:22, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Appreciate the valuable information. Actually DeConto odd enough commanded USS Lake Erie the same battle that Oliver Hazard Perry commanded of which he was captain of Oliver Hazard Perry Frigate Simpson. Another odd thing is that DeConto was from Sandwich, Mass same place that Oliver Hazard Perry brother was from. Lots of links to this man an Oliver Hazard.
Please stop
adding dozens of articles with no text. This is not the way to do things - what if you get distracted before you fill them all out? Make a list of redlinks in your userspace and work them through one by one - but don't flood articlespace with half-baked no-text articles. - CrazyRussiantalk/email01:10, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Another request to desist
Please do not flood multiple pages with fair-use images that have only tangential relevance to the article. Especially when the articles are no-text ones like those mentioned above. -- Jonel | Speak02:05, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I thought the symbol would be appropriate and did not need an article. Thanks for heads up, it will not happen again.
I accidently deleted Deconcini Photo. Can you please reinsert.
I have reverted your edits to Dennis_DeConcini. Please make use of the sandbox if you want to practice editing. You could even copy the markup and text of the DeConcini acticle and paste it into the sandbox and work your edits that way. Or you could create a sub page under your user page. Also, please make use of the preview button to see the results of your edits before saving. This should cut down on the shear number of edits since most of your changes are very small and tend to build on each other.
I have left this message on both your 72.204.223.214 and Harvardlaw talk pages. You many want to consider using only one ID in Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by EarthPerson (talk • contribs) 02:16, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
I spent a long time researching this only to see you remove it. Your disrespect for a US Senator is incredible —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Harvardlaw (talk • contribs) 01:51, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
(I presume the above comment is for the Dennis DeConcini) article, not the law firm.)
David, I did not remove anything that you did. I reverted the article to a version before you began to use to to experiment with. You can view the previous versions by looking at the article's history. Your 150+ edits added very little meaningful content to it. Please look in the history at your last edit and find what you feel should be there. Copy it and place it back in the article, but please make use of the Show preview button. Get the article the way you want it and then save it. It was not my intention to remove legitimate corrections of factual content, but I don't think your last edit was how you wanted it to look either. You were having issues with a number of templates. Please make use of the sandbox for your experimenting. You can make better contributions, I know you can. Please practice first. --EarthPerson02:38, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not remove legitimate warnings from your talk page or replace them with inappropriate content. Removing or maliciously altering warnings from your talk page will not remove them from the page history. You're welcome to archive your talk page, but be sure to provide a link to any deleted legitimate comments. If you continue to remove or vandalize legitimate warnings from your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks.
Note: Removal of the 'prod' templates is allowed and taken as indication that someone believes the article should be kept. The 'prod' template should never be re-added to a page. Further, this demonstrates the problems of the 'wr0' and related templates. IMO these should never be used as being forced to display a past warning is insulting and can become harassment... but is especially bad when the warning was incorrect. It is too easy to make mistakes about process or have different interpretations of what is 'neutral point of view' or 'vandalism', and thus we should not be edit-warring to enforce display of potentially mistaken or subjective warnings. --CBD11:57, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not add the Olympic rings image to the medal tables on biography pages. Use of the image is restricted as it cannot be used without the written consent of the IOC. They are used only on specific games-related articles under fair use, which does not extend to competitor medal tables. Also, adding this along with formating as you have been distorts the appearance of the {{MedalTop}} family of templates, from which the image has been removed. Thank you, mattbr3017:00, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
In viewing your edit history of this article, I thought perhaps to suggest the Show preview button at the bottom of the screen. Good luck. -Patstuart13:50, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your edits. Please consider 1) Describing each edit with the Edit Summary box (above the Save Page button), 2) Grouping edits together to reduce the number of edits in the Page History to make it easier for fellow editors to monitor the edits, 3) Using the Show Preview button.

Please stop removing the AfD messages on articles that have been marked for deletion. If you want to edit them, please do so, but removing the message will not prevent the articles from being deleted. Thanks. --EarthPerson16:23, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No, I will remove them and tell everyone I know to remove them, until you stop placing them on this article of importance.
