haiku
I replied to your comment at Talk:Haiku. Also, please try to "sign" your Talk page posts by adding four tildes at the end (like this: ~~~~). BlankVerse ∅ 20:38, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I forget where it is, but there is a spot on the Wikipedia where you can ask for translations to be done. I have a feeling that some of the haiku article (for example, the section titled "Techniques of haiku") is probably already from the Japanese Wikipedia article because it uses terms that are not usually seen in English-language haiku books--even those that are on Japanese haiku. Quite a few of the articles on Japanese topics that are in the English Wikipedia are from translations from the Japanese Wikipedia, although most have since been edited, refactored, and added to. If you are interested in Japanese topics, there is also a Japanese WikiProject. BlankVerse ∅ 08:36, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Pointless Waste of Time
Hi, I note that your edit summary on this article reads: " this page was deleted after thourough discussion and procedure". Looking at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Pointless Waste of Time I see that the discussion was closed with the conclusion "already deleted."
Looking at the deletion log for all deletions after the VfD was started I see:
- 18:39, 15 Apr 2005 Jni deleted "Pointless waste of time?" (content was: 'Fart!!!!')
- 21:38, 15 Apr 2005 Jni deleted "Pointless waste of time?" (content was: '{{d}}I love JC!')
- 03:41, 16 Apr 2005 Neutrality deleted "Pointless Waste of Time" (Speedied twice, massive sockpuppetry on VfD)
- 03:56, 16 Apr 2005 Neutrality deleted "Pointless Waste of Time" (content was: 'Me wants it.{{del}}')
...and so on. So you see the article was deleted for spurious reasons (the version saying 'fart' could easily be reverted and then the page protected). Massive sock puppetry on a VfD discussion does not prevent protection of the page. Now I've closed VfDs where sock puppets were involved and, although it's not particularly easy, nor is it rendered impossible. The article was deleted outside the VfD process and no valid reason existed for deletion. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 13:49, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
- As there was a content dispute I've protected the article. Now there can be no vandalism problem on that article, so don't worry. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 16:02, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
Spore
Nice overhaul of the spore game article. I was going to do something similar but you beat me to it :) Anyway, we can use people like you over at WP:GCOTW. Drop by if you're interested. Jacoplane 01:11, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
