Hallo

one tard has added template of speedy deletion, and later article was deleted. And I have question, how to revert deleted data? Bcoz as I see, history couldnt saved. here is an article btw here in the first line of the result, u would see a beginning of deleted article..what a pity that hadnt cached at google. anyway, there must be a category when article should "speedy delete" and admins or some1 else must vote for deleete or make a decision. I don't believe that article can be delete and data of that article too. there must be a log or history somewhere, but where? —Preceding unsigned comment added by UnholyFreezz (talkcontribs) 10:33, 21 January 2009 (UTC) - Unholy Freezz talkguestbookcontribs —Preceding undated comment was added at 10:22, 21 January 2009 (UTC).

Here's my take on things:
  • Ironholds is not a tard
  • Your article was deleted via
    WP:NOT#MYSPACE
    as well as the several other notices regarding garage bands trying to self-promote via Wikipedia.
  • You may seek an administrator (I am not an admin) to request deleted data be sent to you if you are nice when you request the information (and not calling people tards)
  • CSD is generally a process where a "new page patroller" (refer to
    WP:NPP) nominates an article for deletion and an administrator takes a look at the reason of CSD the nominator requests to delete - and makes a decision to delete. Generally articles that are CSD deleted are the ones that are simply and blatantly violating Wikipedia's many policies and guidelines. You may find a comprehensive listing of these polices and guidelines via the light blue navibox on my user page
    near the top right corner named "Key Wikipedia Policies and Guidelines".
  • Thanks for stealing my signature...lol
I hope this helps. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 16:02, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
I here solve, whom tard, whom - not ^_^ ok, ok he is not a tard, I just get heated.
bear no relation to that band, just listened some tracks.
So there is a chance that the data might be save?
How to know, which admin had decided to delete my article?
U are welcome :P
Ye, thanx

UnholyFreezz (talk) 12:48, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

You'll need to contact an administrator by looking at the administrator directory. The administrator should review your case and decide whether to give you that information. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 19:57, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Crawford v. Nashville revert

It seems you reverted my addition to Crawford v. Nashville summarizing the Court's opinion. (I am also the person who started the article, not that that means anything.) I think people would like to read what they had to say, because reasoning is important in Supreme Court cases. In your haste to revert, you also took out my updates to the info box, and my removal of the tag claiming a judgment was pending. Why do you think this revert was necessary? 75.119.23.69 (talk) 08:35, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Huggle will make erroneous edits, which I have went back, reviewed and fixed the edits made before and subsequently afterward. FYI the Current Court Case template is currently nominated templates for deletion. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs
08:46, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
At 8:41 you added my edits back, and then at 8:43, you took them out again? I'm confused. Also, Shadowjams has been adding his own edits, so I hope we resolve this before it gets any more confusing. 75.119.23.69 (talk) 08:59, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
It's really not confusing whatsoever. The tool that I am using is malfunctioning and the attempts in which I'm trying to fix is actually automatically undoing themselves. If you wish, you may attempt to restore your additions without changing the edits Shadowjams recently made. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 09:05, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
I'll add the Decision section back, attempting to leave Shadowjams edits unchanged. I feared if I did that without discussing it with you we might have an edit fight on our hands. I think one of your malfunctioning tools just accused me of vandalism, by the way. 75.119.23.69 (talk) 09:09, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Rollback and stuff

Hi

Just saw your note (above), yes, since the first Stargate film I wished there was something like that on TV, Startrek:NG was ok, but never really made too much of an impression on me, apart form Data of course ! When the SG series started I was over the moon, always been a fan since then. AS for Mr Chow, well I have got 52 films with him in and apart from 2 or 3 they are something I can watch over and over and still laugh everytime. When I first saw Kung Fu Hustle I had to stop watching it at the knife scene when they are trying to kill the landlady and he stabs himself in the arm - I laughed for over 10 mins lol.

SG:Universe - same here, I can't wait and have been avidly following develpments, I know there are those that will talk about it's similarity to Startrek but I don't care, the idea of exploring and discovering is much more exciting to me than to worry about who is doing it. Recent series' like Firefly etc haven't captured my imagination so rollon SG:Uiverse !! lol

Hope all is ok with you, and I'll try and catch up with the robotics articles now the FR/FP/leave it the way it is arguments are dying down.--Chaosdruid (talk) 18:54, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Cool. I actually started creating some articles on basic mechanism topics. Revolute joint, Prismatic joint, Cylindrical joint, and Screw joint (so far) were four articles I started so far and I'd like more editors to help expand the articles, and hopefully get at least one of the four to become (hopefully) a DYK. Interested? - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 19:09, 4 February 2009 (UTC)


Yup, I'm interested, will take a look later on though as my ex girlfriend is diabetic and ringing me every 20 mins due to complications with ther sugar levels today.
lol sorry, I forgot to put in the question about rollbacks - I got distracted by her and the problem shes having. Basically, I have been using Twinkle to do roll backs as well as just clicking the rollback on page comparisons for various bad edits/vandalism, should I have asked for rollback rights first or is it ok to carry on using twinkle (sparingly I might add)
--Chaosdruid (talk) 19:23, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Rollbacking rights on Wikipedia is different from accessing a similar rollbacking tool via Twinkle. You generally don't require rollbacking rights to use Twinkle, but it is suggested. Rollbacking via Wikipedia should only be used for vandalism and is questioned if you use it improperly, while if you screw up with Twinkle you can just often just undo without too many critics watching your every move. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 01:33, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Lol guess I'll keep on using twinkle for a while then till I get more used to the conventions and rules and regs !
Hope all is well --Chaosdruid (talk) 02:05, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Still running on 3.5 hours of sleep for the past 72 hours or so... Yeah I still use TW even though have rollback rights unless I'm trying to report AN/I or AIV related rollbacks that I've already reported. If you think TW is cool, wait til you learn how to use Huggle. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 02:40, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

I know that feeling well lol - I did look at the huggle user guide but was one of my "I just can't stop editing - oh my god I've been up for 42 hours" days and it made my head hurt. I just added to the cylindrical joint page but was just "to" in the middle of a sentence. Good work on the pics btw ! Also added a little section to the prismatic joint discussion page - nice pics if you get time to look before you fall asleep in your chair lol

Thanks for the input. I've been wondering if I've been explaining things wrong or was being unclear.  :) - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 03:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Appreciation

Thanks for your assistance regarding Air travel, climate change, and green consumerism. I must admit, I've requested the page be moved to main namespace without making either of the changes you suggest. With regard to `see also' topics, I think it's fair to say that some pages are `general' and others more `specialized'. It's important for the `general' pages to have signposts towards the more `specialized' pages. I think it's less important for the specialized pages to have signposts towards the more general pages (in fact, it can be a nuisance as it can give the reader the mistaken impression that, unless they follow the links to the more general pages, they won't have covered all the material about the more specialized subject). I think the page I've written is at the specialized end of the spectrum --- hence no `see also' topics. With regard to the bullet points, they were already a last resort (I found it very hard to achieve both brevity and exact correctness using prose) --- hopefully, because the article is quite specialized, the page won't be visited too often and hence the poor style won't cause too much offence.

Once again, I appreciate your assistance.

D.Wardle (talk) 04:11, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, the best thing about creating your own article is you can set the See Also topics to whichever topic(s) you feel are closely related enough for you to list. I understand your point regarding the generalization of the topics and remember that this is an encyclopedia. Although it may not get as much traffic as a featured article - the quality, substance and depth should never be compromised because you expect low reader counts. :) - Jameson L.

Welcoming

Hi Jamesontai! We're both part of the Account Creation Team, and just by random chance I happened to notice that your signature isn't coming out properly on the welcomes the bot leaves for you. See here for an example. It used to mess up my signature, too, and the only way I managed to fix it was by making sure my signature (on the tool) included only wiki markup (meaning it doesn't look like my normal signature). There may be another way, too, but not that I know of. Anyway, thought you would like to know.

Speedy Deletion of Ohio Jobs & Growth

Jameson, I have to contest the speedy deletion of Ohio Jobs & Growth Plan because the information in question is not copyrighted, but rather the text of a Constitutional amendment proposed in Ohio (public record, government information). Mogul761 (talk) 16:21, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Public document copies should be posted in WikiSource, not Wikipedia. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 16:24, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. I will re-create the page once it is deleted with references to the amendment text but not the information itself. Mogul761 (talk) 16:27, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

I would say that since the information can be cross-wikied (such as wikisource:A specimen of the botany of New Holland</nowiki>) you really don't need to recreate it at all. This way you save yourself from summarizing a duplicate copy. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 16:33, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Alumni Sorting

The (relatively) new template {{alum/start}} didn't have a sortable parameter. And I think that some parserfunctions may have changed as well. The question is, do we want to enable sorting by default? I designed the original template, and that's how I had it, and I doubt anyone is going to object to that feature. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 18:25, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure I was for auto-sorting when I asked about it a few months back. It'd be nice to have. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 07:28, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
I went ahead and added it. Have a look at a relevant list... for example List of Georgia Institute of Technology alumni. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 09:21, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Ribbons

I dunno. I don't make the images, I just use them. Each file has an author, you can ask that individual how he or she created the image. Sorry that I can't help you any more than that. bahamut0013wordsdeeds 12:06, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject Universities COTM

I'm interested in reviving COTM. If you don't have the time, I'd gladly take stewardship over it until you'd like to spearhead it again. Since the "current" COTM from Dec/Jan still hasn't been nominated for GA status, perhaps we could add a secondary objective to future COTM announcements that is easier to attain, like improving some stub or start class articles. That would be particularly useful for editors who would like to participate but just happen to know very little about the one big article that's on its way from B to GA status. Let me know what you think. -Mabeenot (talk) 02:18, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Wow, I'm glad finally someone decided to revive the program.
WP:UNI/COTF used to have three objectives, something like what you're thinking about. Take the initiative and start the program back up. I'll pop in every once in a while to help out if you need me. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs

South Florida Wikipedia editors Meetup

I proposed a new meeting day, time and place here [12] under the section "New Suggestion" NancyHeise talk 07:28, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:2007 the crimson format switch.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to

fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale
.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Killiondude (talk) 08:26, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Collaboration

Hi. We've got a very lively collaboration going on at Cal Poly Pomona. Since you voted for it back in 2008, I thought you might like to help out. -Mabeenot (talk) 03:30, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Happy new year

Hi m8 - one year on since I fist had contact with you and it seems like you have dissapeared for a while I am starting to review the unassessed articles, and maybe move on to re assessing some of them, as well as adding my first contraversial edit to a robotics page !


EATR - it really is a dodgy subject lol - I added that the project creators actually have "chicken fat" as a fuel source (from their own project overview documentation)

Anyway I hope all is well with you and you arent working too hard on making little robots to take over the world in your evil lab lol

Best wishes for this year and hope to see you back soon

Hello !

I am a faculty member in France. My domain is computer science and geometric modelling. I have a problem I don't know how to solve. I submitted it to many colleagues from various domains who couldn't help. I just saw your wikipage about the prismatic joint and may be you know the solution or have suggestions. Would you agree that I send you my problem and you tell me what you think (it's about how to check - with a program - that a part can serve as a guide for another part, so that the only degree of freedom for the guided part is a given translation).

Thank you in advance for your time.

PS : please answer to [email protected]

No, thank YOU!

Hey, thanks for the note on my talk page re: your visitor's book! I'm so impressed by your abilities and your Userpage really is great! Myself, I don't even know how to store old messages on my talk page. I'm one of the older, computer-challenged set here on Wikipedia, but if ever there is something I can do to assist you, let me know! I specialize in the biographies of musicians, and photographs for those articles, as well as the article rescue group. I love your barnstar for that.. takes a lot, I know! Blessings! --Leahtwosaints (talk) 18:00, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Sorry it took so long for me to respond. I've been involved with other MediaWiki projects, most recently one that closely relates to the game that I play online. My involvement with Wikipedia has been slowly declining for quite a while now. Thanks for your message! :) - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 00:29, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
