Yeah, I had a crash course in protecting articles on Wikipedia. Sorry about that. Talked with User:Xiner about it, if you're curious. ZueJay^talk 04:37, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I recently created an article on XCM, or 'Extreme Card Manipulation' for Wikipedia and was very disappointed to find that it has been deleted. I tried as hard as I could to comply with all the Wikipedia rules and did not see anything that would point to it needing deletion. I'd just like to ask why it was deleted? Thanks for reading.

The subject is not

notable enough to merit an article. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:37, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply

Adobe Illustrator>SVG>Inkscape>Inkscape SVG. I've searched and searched but have found no free EPS->SVG tools. I hate to use pirated stuff, but I'm not going to pay to convert to a format which works in a free editor to make images for a free encyclopedia. --

hi, thank you so much for removing the deletion from the sports trainer page, it's good to know that there are good people on wikipedia. I worked really hard to create and maintain that page and for someone to just come up and try to delete it really upsets me, so thank you for your refusal to delete. Thanks again.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Hi, you have recently protected the page

I have moved it; however, the page needs to remain move-protected for about two weeks to prevent

disrupting Wikipedia to illustrate a point by moving it again. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply

Ok, no problem. Thanks, Joshdboz 12:18, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks also for your help in settling this issue. By the way I discovered on this occasion that it was too easy to move a page and difficult to move it back. Alain10 20:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Less than an hour later Sbandrews arbitrarily killed the article with the single word "redirect" as the only comment. The page is now reduced to a couple of paragraphs at the bottom of the Climate of Mars page where it will never be found or read. When the AfD was "no consensus" how do they have the right to unilaterally destroy hundreds of hours of work and go against the votes???

The documented history of Censorship:

1. (diff) (hist) . . Martian global warming‎; 21:37 . . (+33) . . Sbandrews (Talk | contribs) (redirect)
2. (diff) (hist) . . Talk:Martian global warming‎; 20:46 . . (+96) . . King of Hearts (Talk | contribs) (Article survived AfD with no consensus)

-- Rameses 05:08, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted the merge by Sbandrews. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:28, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your intervention here was unhelpful. In the absence of consensus, its up to the editors of the page to decide what to do with it. By my count, the AFD got 14 merge votes, 9 delete and 5 keep; which makes merge/delete by far the most popular: so I don't understand why you reverted the merge and even removed the tags. By all means join in if you have become interested in the subject, though William M. Connolley 10:14, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My request for adminship has closed successfully (79/0/1), so it appears that I am now an administrator. Thanks very much for your vote of confidence. If there's anything I can ever do to help, please don't hesitate to let me know. IrishGuy ^talk 03:16, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear King of Hearts,

Thank you for your message about the article Loudmouth.

The removed content in now back in the article Loudmouth.

Thanks —The preceding

I've unblocked this user. 48 hours for one image removal is pretty harsh even if we do consider it to be blatant vandalism. I would be more sympathetic if we knew the user was privy to the conversations on the talk page before he made the edit but we really don't know. I will give a sever warning and hope it won't happen again. If it does after I've pointed them to the discussion then it will be fine to block. gren グレン 04:39, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't catch that. I guess I was influenced too much by the comments on

WP:AIV. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:59, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply
