Cambridge

Hi. I've undone your additions regarding the wards of Cambridge as there is too much unnecessary detail in there, most of which requires explicit knowledge of Cambridge to be able to interpret. For example,

East Chesterton - Area around Milton Road stretching all the way north east to Cowley Road.

isn't that meaningful unless you already know where Milton Rd and Cowley Rd are - Wikipedia is for a worldwide audience. Dancarney (talk) 13:11, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know your reasoning. I didn't write that bit but just popped it back in after I noticed it had been deleted. I didn't see any reasoning so thought it might have been removed by accident. Pontificalibus (talk) 18:36, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

James Russell (director)

Greetings! Thank you for reviewing the article James Russell (director) and tagging it for possible speedy deletion. However, there are assertions of notability in the article: his awards and his directing work for the BBC and major recording artists. Accordingly, it is not subject to speedy deletion, although it may be subject to the normal articles for deletion process. —C.Fred (talk) 15:51, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: The Party Quirks

I have declined your A7 proposal, since the article does contain an assertion of possible importance. However, it needs sources to verify these claims though, so I have tagged it as such. ViperSnake151 21:00, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

ANI regarding "List of Exalted comics"

Please comment here. Thanks. Axl ¤ [Talk] 19:44, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Janice Erlbaum

Hi Pontificalibus, hope you don't mind but I've declined your speedy on Janice Erlbaum as in my view phrases such as "awarded several honors" are an assertion of notability. ϢereSpielChequers 22:09, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Deletion discussion

Hi, you might be interested in this AfD proposal which has just been posted. --Orrelly Man (talk) 10:35, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

I am very sorry

I accidentally blocked you when I was trying to block Luemrae. I am sorry about that. Mea culpa. I have reversed your block and an autoblock. Please let me know if you have any trouble editing and I will try to fix it. Chillum 20:20, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

No problem! Pontificalibus (talk) 20:31, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Migraine-associated vertigo

I wonder how you knew to leave this message [1] on user:Julcal page at 15:47, 5 April 2009. From Julcal's contributions list it appears that he did not create that page, and indeed, made no contributions before 22:12, 5 April 2009. Just asking because I am curious about Julcal's background, as he may be another puppet of user:Mwalla. Sorry if this is a stupid question. The Sceptical Chymist (talk) 00:34, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. Julcal's creation of Migraine-associated vertigo or contributions to it will not show on Julcal's contributions list because the page was deleted. Contributions to deleted pages do not appear on contribution lists. Maybe an admin such as SchuminWeb (who deleted the page) will be able to access this info.

Campion School

I hope I am doing this right! But I do not understand how the "Scandal" section can be allowed to remain! I have been monitoring vandalism on this site for a number of years as students and others will make inappropriate edits. By allowing this current addition it gives them and anyone else the go ahead to vandalise! Especially as the bbc news report has errors. Please advise. Campionschool (talk) 20:57, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

It remains because it is referenced in a reliable and notable source. If there are errors in the BBC article I suggest you take that up with the BBC legal department. Please start a discussion on the Talk:Campion_School,_Hornchurch page if you have concerns. Pontificalibus (talk) 21:04, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

MS PDA Business Strategy

Hi. I don't think we're supposed to replace a PROD after anyone has removed it for any reason or none. But in this case it doesn't matter - the article has already been AfD'd here, so (when I could get through the edit conflicts) I tagged it db-g4. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:02, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

• PS - he's also put it in as MS PDA business strategy, but I've g4-ed that, too. JohnCD (talk) 21:07, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

OK thanks, will remember that in future Pontificalibus (talk) 21:16, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

The Campion School

Dear Pontificalibus

The item 'Scandal' on the site for The Campion school is contravening the Malicious Communications Act 1988 and, therefore, must be removed from the site.

edit summary

While I support this revert I don't think BLP can be used to justify it, given that Joplin has been dead for over 90 years. Cheers, --Stepheng3 (talk) 17:18, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Miami Beach Convention Center

Before tagging a page for speedy deletion as a copyright violation, please check the edit history to ensure there is not a "clean" version that is not a blatant copyright violation, as there was in the case of this article. I've been in somewhat of an edit war with a SPA/COI user on this page, and have reported that user at WP:UAA. KuyaBriBri^Talk 17:50, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
