You can create a user sub-page right now or after the deletion discussion is closed. You have the code so it's your choice when you want to userfy it.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 06:54, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Invitation

Hi, I notice that no one has bothered to slap a {{welcome}} template on your page yet, and you've been here too long for me to do it. Anyway, you might be interested in the conversations that take place on the talk page to Wikipedia:WikiProject Mathematics. linas 02:51, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Apology for false editorial commentary

Greetings, I've apologized on the JP-MC talk page but I also wanted to apologize on your talk page. You may want to respond on the Jyllands-Posten_Muhammad_cartoons_controversy talk page. Netscott 22:32, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

oka,y thanks, I made a comment, doesn't seem much need to change the article after all. I didn't realize it had a seperate overview section after the intro. JeffBurdges 11:43, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

NatSel etc

The first step is to get Marcos in check, after that, I will start dealing with several of his articles (except the NatSel article, which seems to be highjacked by a bunch of darwin lovers KimvdLinde 23:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Oule, Ave, and Hello. I would like to thank you for voting to keep the Aleksandra Wasowicz article. I really appreciate it. Don't worry about not being able to access the article. Eventually, further research will help provide the information necessary in expanding and refining the contents of the article. Again, thanks. - Deucalionite Deucalionite 16:09, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Fred Carama

Please note that you made a vote on this article's AfD based on a bad understanding of the article. Carama is not a faculty member at Julliard. He attended that school. Not all students of the school are notable, that would be a rediculous assertion.--Strothra 09:28, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Woops! Never mind. I'll abstain. Thanks, JeffBurdges 10:13, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

I have emailed you about something that others have been preventing people from telling you. If you do not receive it, please respond on your talk page. Dagedzil 08:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Please help clarify this edit of yours

This edit of yours is part of the instigation of the discussion at talk:42 (number). Can you help clarify? Note that the statement in the article is still there, but commented out. Michael Hardy 15:00, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Your post about Orhan Pamuk

You know I don't care if some people try to hijack a Nobel for Turkish literatue for their own political agendas. That's their shallowness frankly. I don't get offended at all, I am over all that :)))))) Funny that u didn't put a similar post (that you put on the armenian genocide talk page) about Pamuk wikinews on the talk page of the Featured Article Turkish literature.. No agendas there, right?? :)))))) Whatever dude, I am the one that had one of his fellow city-dwellers win a Nobel prize, not u :)))) cheers!!Baristarim 02:25, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm not going to take this too seriously, as you don't seem to have written anything about him in the wikinews article yourself. JeffBurdges 13:14, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

No I didn't because I was not on Wiki when he won the Nobel Prize, so there was not much I could contribute among all those people who kept on modifying Pamuk related articles every three minutes even twelve hours after.. I have contributed to wiki and started article, if that's what u r trying to imply. But u still haven't answered to me why u didn' put a similar post on the Turkish literature article (i mean, logically, at least u should have put a post there, right??), but you only put one on Armenian genocide.. That's agenda pushing and/or bad faith my friend, that's all I am saying whether u take it seriously or not.. regards Baristarim 23:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Whatever, you guys start calling each other names at the drop of a hat. I don't care, not my fight.

fyi, linking the Pamuk comment was only an after thought. I really wanted comments about the French law since we had a obviously POV article about it. I just happened to remember that Pamuk's article was heading down the road to abandonment & deletion. Wkinews covers the science prises, but literature will always be the first to be forgotten.

Cat Stevens

I think the way it now reads - with your introductory phrase about his never retracting the statements, but with his complete quote, is the best way to proceed. This is a touchy area, obviously, and I think we ought not to be characterizing or editing what is said - let the words speak for themselves. I don't think we can worry about - or predict - whether or not readers will read an entire quote - and the quote isn't so long anyway. You don't know, and I don't know, what was in his mind at any point in this affair - so let's not try to guess. Tvoz 04:37, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Edits ot Eric Robert Rudolph

Greetings, thanks for helping to edit this article. I noticed that you wikilinked to Christian terrorism. This type of edit has been quite contentious for some time now and I had worked out a compromise. If you are reverted (which is almost sure to happen) please allow the compromise version to stand and discuss this on the talk page. Thanks. (→Netscott) 16:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

I placed an argument on the talk page, my point is simply that one should always be specific about terrorist ideologies, be the communist, nationalist, etc. JeffBurdges 16:08, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

AfD

Hi JeffBurdges, this is a message I'm posting to everyone who participated in this AfD. I have nominated the same article for deletion again here – you might be interested. Regards, KissL 09:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

mushrooms

Hi Jeff!

Look (listen?) again on the radio link on my page. It is still hardcore techno, but a brand new slew with many out of phase features projecting nicely against the walls I have here ...

I said that I use this kind of music when I work, right, yes? Eehh, excuse me while I figure out where the loop joins :-D

Template:Dominionism

As you participated in the prior TfD, I thought you would be interested that it has been proposed for deletion once again. You can find the discussion here. SkierRMH 02:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Template:Dominionism

Hi Jeff. The Template:Dominionism TfD, on which you commented, has been closed with no consensus (default to keep). Although the TfD debate touched on several issues regarding the form the infobox should now take, much seems unresolved. I invite you to participate in further discussion on this topic. Thank you. --BlueMoonlet (t/c) 05:25, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Surf The Channel

A tag has been placed on Surf The Channel requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

As this RFC closes, there are two proposals being considered:

Your opinion on this is welcome. Okip 02:20, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Digital marriage

The article Digital marriage has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A search for references found no published support for the phrase "digital marriage" in the context of this article. fails WP:N and WP:V

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
