Kate Nash/Personal Attacks
I noticed you left a note on talk page of 68.9.95.118. This user is repeatedly vandalising the Kate Nash page by incorrectly claiming she is Irish born (the user is Irish themself despite a US based IP address....). I just noticed they left this message on an old talk page 'Fuck Off you British Cunt !!!'. This user doesn't appear to make an constructive edits, and is throwing about personal insults.... surely a ban should be in place here?

Good job on the Huggling
Just wanted to let you know it is appreciated. You've got at least two fans now. :P —
Whoa!!! [This Is Good]
Not that I'm complaining that vandals are getting reverted, but the one night in months I find time to patrol, you beat me to half the edits. I guess this slow computer and questionable Wi-Fi connection aren't quite adequate for Huggle. :D Keep it up, though; you're doing an awesome job!

I removed them because they weren't particularly relevant news links related to the company. If they were references for particular statements in the article (e.g. important events in the history of the company), it would be another story, but they appear to be there just to show that the company exists or something.

a question?
I have an inquiry, what is the lower age limit for being accepted as an admin here on wikipedia? I ask as there seem to be a lot of school kids, ie, those under the age of 18, who are admins. They seem to delete, ban, block, edit wikipedia at times when they do not l ike an certtain article.
This seems fairly unique as most sites will not allow anyone to be and admin, sysop, modderator unless they are 18 or over. Please reply here as my IP address changes as and when I log onto the Internet79.74.24.142 (talk) 19:33, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I thought you'd want to know Sylis9 has vandalized another page. I was going to put a warning on the user's talk page but saw the other warnings you already gave.

Hello. Yes, thanks, I'd like this one deleted because it was created by accident when the server went down just as I was trying to set up a talk page archive.

Block your own vandals, darn you. :P GlassCobra 19:54, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Why are you making reports to AIV? Did you resign adminship?
- No, it's just that Huggle's block feature is broken, so it is easier to file reports to AIV and let someone else deal with it than it is to minimize Huggle, open a browser, and block using the MediaWiki Special:BlockIP. J.delanoygabsadds 23:35, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi, a few days ago(or weeks, can't remember...) you have deleted my article which is called Illutia due to speedy deletion.

They also said that they declined the deletion but it was re-tagged for deletion despite their decision. Could you please explain to me why you deleted the article? Sinjid40 (talk) 11:24, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- It was an article about web content that didn't indicate the importance or significance of its subject. You need to establish the notabilty of the subject by finding reliable, independent, significant sources for its article. Epbr123 (talk) 11:48, 16 November 2008 (UTC)]
But what if the only sources that I have is from my own experience? I mean I can't find any sources for that article on any websites, since this game(article) is rather unpopular and in no way will the Staff of the game will give away game information. I am(apparently) the only person that tried to make an article for that, so I don't think anyone else would come and improve it. I've seen many articles that have been tagged for not having any sources yet they don't get deleted. How come? Sinjid40 (talk) 03:58, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

CSD A7
Howdy. I'm curious how Massimo Dutti currently states why the company is significant or why it is important? The reason I ask is because you recently declined a speedy tag I had on the article. There are indeed links on the page now, but nothing in the body of the article "indicates why its subject is important or significant". All the links appear to do is show verifiability which is not what CSD A7 is about.--Rockfang (talk) 12:08, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Decline of speedy deletion
Your decline reason for the article Satanas was that is had independent coverage. The only "source" listed is a book that supposedly mentions them at a link that doesn't work. Why is that considered independant coverage? The other external link streetgangs.com wouldn't meet the criteria of a reliable source. Niteshift36 (talk) 22:59, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
- We should to assume good faith and assume that whoever added the book reference wasn't lying about it mentioning Satanas, especially as it was added by an established user. Most book sources aren't available online anyway, so a reference having a deadlink doesn't disqualify it as a source. Besides, the article previously survived an AfD here. Epbr123 (talk) 23:12, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello, EPBR123. I wonder if you might be persuaded to take another look at Cam's RFA, and possibly reconsider your oppose vote? I think that Cam's track record of collaborating with others indicates that there would be a high likliness of asking others before expiramenting with the tools carelessly. Of course, even if accidents occur, most mismoppings can be easily fixed. The things that can't be so easily fixed are the result of attitudes and interactions with other editors, an area in which I think Cam does quite well. Thanks for your time.

- My main concern is his lack of experience at CSD, which is an area where mistakes aren't easily spotted or fixed.

Hi there, how ya doin'?
Just a thought
Fair enough, might Autun also be possible? Not really tempted to create a dab for 2 misspellings but had you not redirected to autumn, I would have to Autun. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:22, 9 January 2009 (UTC) I'll leave it your judgment, but I wonder whether you had even considered Autun... Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:23, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
- I don't really mind where it's redirected to. It was originally a redirect to Autumn, before someone changed it into an article on a non-notable rabbit called Autum. I just restored the original redirect. Epbr123 (talk) 00:30, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

I disagree with the Digital Copy deletion
I have for some time been considering creating an article about Digital Copy and awhile ago after a Google search I was pleased to find an article about it on Wikipedia, but soon discovered that the page had been deleted roughly a month or less after it was created. The Google cache is no longer available, but the article was copied here: [3] and in time we'll see what the Internet Archive was able to capture, if anything. (I'm curious as to what the talk page contained.)
The cited reason for the deletion was
Of course, I could just be misunderstanding the actual reason for the deletion. Judging from my saved copy of the Google cache and the above Yahoo! Answers article, the article itself was pretty good for a description of Digital Copy, but lacking in links (hence not justifying itself according to A7), redirected to Digital copy DVD's (perhaps unwisely, especially since Blu-ray is not DVD), had a link to its own redirect, and contained a futile attempt at a list of titles. Yes, a bit of a mess, but a mess with potential. (Did I just say that?) If it was deleted for technical reasons, I would prefer that it had been cleaned up and not deleted. I would like to recreate the article with most of the text intact, links to articles and studios' sites, and without the list, but I won't do so without your input and (I hope) blessing.

- I've finished looking through, although there's a few things left to sort out:
- Per MOS:IMAGE, text should avoid being sandwiched between two images, as in the Notable alumni section. Also, left-aligned images shouldn't be placed at the start of subsections, like in the Sedgwick's spurs section. To fix these two issues, you'll probably need to remove images from the article.
- "The head of DPE holds the title of Master of the Sword (MOS), dating to the 1800s" - "the 1800s" means the decade 1800-1809, rather than the 19th century. Was this intended? Epbr123 (talk) 03:29, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

GA Sweeps update
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am contacting you because you have contributed or expressed interest in the GA sweeps process. Last month, only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process with 163 articles reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
All exempt articles that have reached FA status have now been moved to a separate section at the end of the running total page. I went through all of the members' running totals and updated the results to reflect the move. As a result your reviewed article total may have decreased a bit. After removing duplicate articles and these FAs, the running total leaves us at ~1,400 out of 2,808 articles reviewed.
If you currently have any articles on hold or at GAR, please consider concluding those reviews and updating your results. I'm hoping that this new list and increased efforts can help us to increase the number of reviews. We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you know of anybody that can assist please direct them to the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, will get an award when they reach that mark. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

GA Sweeps June update
Thanks to everyone's dedicated efforts to the GA Sweeps process, a total of 396 articles were swept in May! That more than doubles our most successful month of 163 swept articles in September 2007 (and the 2 articles swept in April)! I plan to be sending out updates at the beginning of each month detailing any changes, updates, or other news until Sweeps are completed. So if you get sick of me, keep reviewing articles so we can be done (and then maybe you'll just occasionally bump into me). We are currently over 60% done with Sweeps, with just over a 1,000 articles left to review. With over 40 members, that averages out to about 24 articles per person. If each member reviews an article a day this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. I know that may be asking for a lot, but it would allow us to complete Sweeps and allow you to spend more time writing GAs, reviewing GANs, or focusing on other GARs (or whatever else it is you do to improve Wikipedia) as well as finish ahead of the two-year mark coming up in August. I recognize that this can be a difficult process at times and appreciate your tenacity in spending time in ensuring the quality of the older GAs. Feel free to recruit other editors who have reviewed GANs in the past and might be interested in the process. The more editors, the less the workload, and hopefully the faster this will be completed. If you have any questions about reviews or the process let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you.

This may sound difficult, but if everyone completes their reviews, Sweeps would be completed in less than two years when we first started (with only four members!).

Your lack of a Good Article or DYK may be a small problem, but you shouldn't go a write one just to please a couple of people at RfA.

Hello Epbr123, this is an automated message from SDPatrolBot to inform you the PROD templates you added to a number of articles were removed:
- PROD removed from Tera Joy, by User:ThaddeusB, with summary '(remove PROD - a previous prod was contested and thus the article is no longer eligible for proposed deletion)'
- PROD removed from Orchidea Keresztes, by User:ThaddeusB, with summary '(remove PROD - a previous prod was contested and thus the article is no longer eligible for proposed deletion)'
- PROD removed from McKayla Matthews, by User:ThaddeusB, with summary '(contest prod - won an AVN award in 2001 and is thus notable - correct article to reflect that with reference)'
- PROD removed from Michele Raven, by User:SilkTork, with summary '(previously prodded)'
Please consider discussing your concerns with the relevant users before pursuing deletion further. If you still think the articles should be deleted after communicating with the 'dePRODer,' you may send them to

Hi, Epbr. I was asked to write a "copy-editing essentials" article for the MilHist Academy. Please let me know whether it can be improved. Just letting you know I've included a link to your guide.

I'm trying to figure out what's going on here, having found this redirect on the Stone (disambiguation) page (and knowing nothing about Swale or Kent or anywhere in the UK outside London).
In May 2007 you started this stub that said (paraphrasing) "Stone is a village in Swale." Then in July 2007 you said you merged it to
The current situation is that Stone, Swale redirectes to Faversham Stone Chapel, a chapel in Swale that happens to be made out of stone. As far as I can tell from the Swale article and template, there's no place in Swale called Stone. If there is such a place, there doesn't seem to be any article acknowledging it. So I was thinking I'd put the redirect up for deletion but since you still seem to be around, I figured I'd ask you first if you can shed any light here, in part because I'm just curious how this happened. Propaniac (talk) 16:49, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
- The Stone Chapel, Kent articles were created using a source that turned out to be unreliable. There are no settlements in Swale called Stone or Stone Chapel, so these redirects can be deleted. Epbr123 (talk) 18:48, 20 October 2009 (UTC)]
- Thanks. I'm going to copy this conversation to Talk:Stone, Swale, assuming you don't mind. Propaniac (talk) 13:55, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Re-adding you to WP:HAU
Hello! Do you mind if I re-add you to Wikipedia:Highly Active Users/Europe? I removed your name earlier this year since your last edit was February 6, 2009. It's great to see you contributing here and reverting vandalism again. Schfifty3 22:05, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Given the author's username, it kind of looked like the user was making a brag page about herself - but since the article didn't expressly say that, I restored the article (with the prod tag) and added a prod2. NawlinWiki (talk) 13:15, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Request for Discussion
I have archived our previous discussion at User:Stillwaterising/Epbr123. I would like you to go there and finish the discussion. I have asked for editorial insight and the resulting conversations are on my talk page. I first tried to have a conversation about the Afd for Heather Harmon on the article's talk page however you have failed to finish it. We've had our discussion on the Afd page and you've failed to finish that too. I brought my concerns to you on your talk page and the only reply I received was:
- The irony of that RfA oppose still amuses me. I assure you I have no anti-porn bias, which you'll be able to see from my contributions. I'm glad your trying to expand Wikipedia's coverage on the topic, but unfortunately you've decided to write about a porn star that doesn't fulfill the notability criteria. Epbr123 (talk) 09:49, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
You then deleted the conversation without even leaving me a comment on my talk page. Even my innocent inquiry about your lack of a user page was only briefly responded to, then deleted. I'm trying in good faith to discuss this with you, but your lack of response is deeply troubling me.
I would like to know more about the Afd process. My impression is that as the originator of the Afd request you are to be the moderator of the Afd discussion, not the chief complainant. How do I request that a new moderator be enacted? What happens when the discussion is over? Who make the final decision on whether consensus was reached? --Stillwaterising (talk) 08:19, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Firstly, I have the right to remove content from my talk page. I will not tolerate personal attacks and assumptions of bad faith on my page. Regarding AfD, as the originator of the Afd request, I am the "chief complainant". Once the AfD discussion is over, another admin will decide what the consensus is. At the moment, the majority think the article should be deleted. Please also read the part about votestacking at WP:CANVASSING; the AfD already has a keep vote resulting from your user page messages. Epbr123 (talk) 10:26, 5 November 2009 (UTC)]
- I don't care about "votes". You of all people should know about WP:DEMOCRACY. What I care about is reaching consensus, and right now I see that it is split. So what if I may solicited a few users to visit the Afd page? I've never said anything more than "please go (here) and enter your opinion." -- Stillwaterising (talk) 11:15, 5 November 2009 (UTC)]
- I don't care about "votes". You of all people should know about
- Re "votestacking" - I did notify the top 3 contributors of HH to go to the Afd. Ironically, one of them is looking like he'll cast a delete vote. He's either waiting to see how the discussion goes or is refraining from voting.
- I would like to clear up the disagreement between us. Is there a way we can talk privately without giving out my email? Do you use one of the chat systems? -Stillwaterising (talk) 21:53, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I don't use any chat systems. You can email me using the "Email this user" link on the left, although it would allow me to see your address. Epbr123 (talk) 22:15, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I think we're done with this conversation, you can archive it blank it if you wish. -Stillwaterising (talk) 17:05, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Janine Lindemulder/Holly Madison
Looks to me like that source you cite is a recycled press release, judging by the number of places it shows up in pretty much exact copies [6] [7] [8]. Funny that they're first cousins in one copy, second in another. Xbiz.com identifies it as "COMPANY PRESS," too. I therefore don't think it's a good enough ref for a BLP, but it is a much closer call than the custody stuff. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 21:06, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- I've now replaced it with the only non-press-release source I could find, which just refers to her as a relative. Possibly AVN did some fact-checking on the press release and changed it to first cousins. Epbr123 (talk) 21:34, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Isn't editorial oversight a requirement of a reliable secondary source? -Stillwaterising (talk) 14:50, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- My understanding is that a press release can be considered a reliable source about itself (Juicy Entertainment) but not on other topics, like Holly Madison. -Stillwaterising (talk) 18:08, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- As with any primary source, press releases can be a reliable source for some statements. Press releases are probably only a reliable source for someone's personal information if they are written by that person, rather than a company they work for. On this occassion, there's a conflict between the press statement and the AVN article, so it's best to treat neither as reliable. Epbr123 (talk) 18:38, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Tyra Banxxx
Why did you state it was unsourced. It was mentioned in Wikipedia that she has english background prior to my change. Norum 21:06, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- There's no source that she even has English heritage, let alone that her ethnicity is English. Epbr123 (talk) 21:33, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- I am just saying what it stated before I made the change.
| ethnicity =
If there was no proof for that, well, that is another case. Norum 22:45, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- Even if there's proof she is of British decent, having a British ancestor doesn't necessarily make her ethnicity British, and it certainly doesn't necessarily make her ethnicity English. Epbr123 (talk) 23:01, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- Come to think of it, there can not be such thing as a British ethnicity for the simple fact that the term "British" refers to nationals of the UK and that could be either English, Scottish or Welsh. So yeah, you've got a point there. Norum 17:53, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Help with copyright issue
Hi Epbr123, can you help me with a copyright issue. Ahmad123987 uploaded File:Arts-bocelli-horse-220.jpg which I tagged as an obvious copyright infringement as it's from Getty images, with an author mentioned. He/she removed the note and added a "why I can't upload this picture, it's a great picture" message on the file talk page. The user doesn't get copyright with pictures and has some other disregards for guidelines, like changing talk page banner ratings to FA and GA without any review etc. I don't know whether he/she also copy-pasted text. Could you delete the image and explain. I mean, the notification on the talk page says it all I would think but apparently not (it doesn't help that the user removes talk page messages of deletion). Thank you! Hekerui (talk) 12:21, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
Sir, As per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mason Moore for Mason Moore , the reason stated "No significant coverage" and non compliance with WP:PORNBIO, but i would like to express my view over the issue, That i had gone through the Actress profile well, Though she is new to this genre,but still She has been covered significant under what exactly we call for Porn actress, she is not an actress from Hollywood, so we might call for significant status for her. As stated in WP:PORNBIO, Though she had not won a well-known award, such as those listed in Category:Pornographic film awards or Category:Film awards.
but she had been covered & nominated in AVN Awards like that of AVN Hall of Fame. & she had contributed a lot in Porn Industry at such a little time.
Well the aforementioned details are formalised, & the informal one is that, i am new to wikipedia, & would to like contribute for my lifetime, so i am looking for your positive response over this issue, Please assist me. Thanks. (
- The best way to show she is notable is to find reliable sources that discuss her in a fair amount of detail. I've done a fairly extensive search for sources on her, but I'm afraid I can't find any. Epbr123 (talk) 14:33, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

GA Sweeps update
Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 90% done with only 226 articles remain to be swept! As always, I want to thank you for using your time to ensure the quality of the older GAs. With over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 4 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. As an added incentive, if we complete over 100 articles reviewed this month, I will donate $100 to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps participants. I hope that this incentive will help to increase our motivation for completing Sweeps while supporting Wikipedia in the process. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 00:03, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
