Ferenc Rados
Hello. You just prodded Ferenc Rados for having no references. Actually there were a total of eight references given though in the form of plain urls inside the article text (which only show up as blue numbers in brackets, like [1]). I've fixed that and added a proper reference section but I just wanted to let you know that some new articles are a bit tricky and may require a second look before they deserve a BLP prod. Happy editing, De728631 (talk) 20:00, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, and thanks for the heads-up. But please note that I didn't WP:PROD it, I only tagged it with {{UnreferencedBLP}} for improvement. Empty Buffer (talk) 20:03, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oops, you're right, that wasn't a prod after all. De728631 (talk) 20:29, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- No worries! I still should have spotted the inline links. Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 20:31, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

"obvious" hoax? What makes it obvious? Everard Proudfoot (talk) 22:56, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
OK, I wasn't aware of the context. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 23:02, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Greetings...
Greetings Empty Buffer – sorry ’bout that! IOU1. --Technopat (talk) 17:17, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- No problem! I thought it was pretty funny at the time. :-) Empty Buffer (talk) 17:18, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
1. Hello! I just wanted to tell you that your attempt to output {{dated prod|concern = [[Single event that fails [[WP:EVENT]]; unreferenced.|month = June|day = 13|year = 2010|time = 17:10|timestamp = 20100613171051}} to the article failed. I think that the options are not available in that template. I have not seen it being nominated for deletion though.
2. How did you manage to see the article that I created? Heymid (talk) 17:19, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry, I made a mess of that prod, but it's now fixed. I don't think that it's notable enough on its own for a whole article, but if you can find references then we should add the event to an existing article. Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 17:22, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Regarding the new article, there are many ways to see new articles as they come in, but the easiest is to just click on the "Recent changes" link in the left sidebar. Empty Buffer (talk) 17:23, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
Adminship?
Are you interested in adminship (e.g administrator rights)? You seem to do a pretty good job here on English Wikipedia. Heymid (talk) 17:41, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Why thank you. Admin would be very useful for doing anti-vandalism work, but I doubt that I've got enough edits logged to qualify: I've only had this account since April.
- Thanks for your quick work on merging 2010 Vityaz Chekhov vs. Avangard Omsk incident, by the way. Empty Buffer (talk) 17:53, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- 1. No problem!
- 2. I looked quickly at your edits, and they look pretty good and they seem to be in administrator class. You are doing a great job adding categories, marking articles for deletion and somewhat even reverting destructive edits. You are exactly doing what administrators job are: Doing the aftermath in the articles. Just keep on doing it! It's great! I think you are qualified for adminship, and I believe that 2 months is enough for requesting an adminship. If you want to, I am willing to nominate you, but I need a clear confirmation from you before I do it. Heymid (talk) 18:11, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well that's very good to hear, thank you. I'd be very glad to get your nomination. Empty Buffer (talk) 18:18, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. I don't mean any disrespect to either of you, but I think you'll have trouble convincing folks you're ready for the mop (particularly since you've only been editing for a couple of months). I think you might want to read WP:NOTNOW before accepting and transcluding a nomination. It's looks like you've been doing good work, so there's no need to rush things! Regards, P. D.

Bean 3 page
Dont delete the Bean 3 page because it's true , i have a link to a article about it , but wikipedia wont let me add it —Preceding unsigned comment added by ASHMAN234 (talk • contribs) 17:57, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Let's see your link to the article: it will need to be from WP:Reliable sources. Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 17:58, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Mr._Bean's_Holiday (followed by) backs this up. 930913(Congratulate) 17:58, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- How does it back this up? Empty Buffer (talk) 18:00, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- My bad, I thought it was added before this. 930913(Congratulate) 18:03, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Not a problem - I can see that some edits to Mr._Bean's_Holiday by the editor above did appear to support the contention. They've since been reverted by another editor. Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 18:20, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

Nomination for adminship
Heymid (talk) 19:16, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- I urge you not to accept this nomination. It is a virtual certainty that this will be considered a case of talk) 21:14, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- That's kind of what I thought, as noted above. :-) It's clear that the nomination was made in the best of faith though, and I was surprised and flattered to received such strong positive feedback so soon. Thanks for your advice. Empty Buffer (talk) 21:48, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- "Six months" – Thanks for the deadline, at least. Heymid (talk) 13:17, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Redirect your user page to User talk:Empty Buffer?
Do you want me to do it? The page is currently empty. Heymid (talk) 13:19, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
- No, thanks. I had it redirected there before, but kind of like the bleak, arctic look it now has. :-) Empty Buffer (talk) 13:39, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Harvest Tradings
you can put your suggestion or try to help me the article..as this company make contribution. Tradinguk (talk) 11:58, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- The company doesn't appear to be notable per WP:SPAM and WP:Conflict of interest for more details. What contributions has the company made? How is it notable? Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 12:12, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Byki
I believe while writing my long reason, you removed the formats. I just don't like speedy deletions, only motivating the author for rewriting, not for getting rid of the article. --TudorTulok (talk) 13:32, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- What formats did I remove? I'd be happy to replace any accidental deletion I made. Empty Buffer (talk) 13:34, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Templates not formats. Sorry. --TudorTulok (talk) 13:52, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oh I see. Sorry, I should have posted to your talk page that I'd removed the speedy deletion template. Empty Buffer (talk) 13:56, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Templates not formats. Sorry. --TudorTulok (talk) 13:52, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Please be aware that schools are not eligible for speedy deletion under CSD:A7. I have therefore declined to delete this page; it's open for you to PROD or AFD it. Stifle (talk) 11:30, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- It's actually a language training company, although it has "school" in the name, and the company isn't asserting any notability. "Larry's School of Motoring" would similarly not be covered by the schools rule. :-)
- Note also that Churchill House School of English was speedied as spam a few days ago, and its creator User:ChurchillHouse blocked for a promo name. Thanks, Empty Buffer (talk) 11:55, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Yes thanyou appreciate the comments, I started the page with a view to handing it over to others to modify and take forward. 90% of the structure and guidelines for acceptable content were taken from an existing page from another company I picked at random to minimise the risk of contravening guidelines. I'll have someone else look at it and try and remedy the issues highlighted. Ive made some changes so its less salesy, appreciate it if you could highlight the biggest contravention as far as you are concerned. Thanks Sturveyeaa (talk) 12:58, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'll give it a look now, thanks. Empty Buffer (talk) 12:59, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
