Hello Meewam. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of

Hey Meewam, just wanted to let you know that I closed the AFD:
WP:RFD. It can be found at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2010_February_25#Windows_Rot. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on my talk page! Thanks. Jujutacular T · C 22:19, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply

I'm sorry, but it appears that you are confusing

WP:RFD#DELETE. So far I have yet to see a justification for deleting the redirect (not the original article) from you. I have not made a recommendation yet, but too long an interval pass without one, I will be recommending a WP:Speedy keep on procedural grounds. The article is history - what policy-based objection do you have against the redirect that is not appropriate for WP:DRV? B.Wind (talk) 19:10, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply

I have found the sentence with your RfD justification and amended my second comment accordingly. I will not be recommending a speedy keep as you do have a valid basis for the nomination. B.Wind (talk) 19:33, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Windows Tax

You moved the Windows Tax section (I'm OK with that), but I just realized: isn't it just a duplicate of the "Licensing agreements" section? Shouldn;t they be merged? --DanielPharos (talk) 14:34, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

uk chart positions

hey, please don't remove positions 101-200 from articles. the

UK Singles Chart is a 200 position chart. thanks Mister sparky (talk) 21:24, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

The
UK Singles Chart article does not cite any references. Could you please add a reference to the 200 position singles chart? Looking at the OFFICIAL UK SINGLES TOP 100 shows only 100 positions. Am I looking at the wrong chart? - Meewam (talk) 21:53, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

it has been a 200 position chart for about 20years. most places only publish the top 40, 75 or 100. but positions 101-200 are only available to subscribers of
ChartsPlus magazine. Mister sparky (talk) 21:57, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of

WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion
will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of

Reponse - Meewam (talk) 22:02, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of AIDS

Meewam, I suggest you have a look at the guidance on requesting moves, with particular attention to the bit which says "Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate" It’s no good just plonking a RM tag on a page without saying why you think it’s a good idea. And directing comments to an old discussion isn’t a good idea either.
Now I’ve copied your original comments to the discussion, with a summary of the rest; if you are unhappy with that I suggest you re-write it to reflect what you actually mean. And I’ve changed the page tag again, so newcomers to the discussion know where they are supposed to comment. Moonraker12 (talk) 18:01, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for being a big help in clearing things up regarding the structure at the talk page, and also for giving some directions on how to request a move. I'll certainly look into to that the next time I consider placing a {{
movenotice
}} on a page.
I didn't know about the Requested Moves list, but now that the discussion is listed there, it will hopefully attract more people to engage.
I placed a {{
movenotice
}} does not require me to do so, except in case of a complicated move, e.g. the move target is already taken, or if a wider community input is needed to form a consensus. The last phrase does encourage me to post the discussion at the Requested Moves list, but I somehow overlooked that possibility.
Things went a bit out of hand when
movenotice
}}. So I'm at bit surprised at how things got so messed up - until you came along a set it straight :)
Thanks again - Meewam (talk) 23:10, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough: it’s (typically!) more complicated than it first appeared. And I’m sorry if I came over to you as being testy; I assumed when I first saw it that it was a
hit-and-run tag, which tend to wind me up. I'd also assumed that you'd put it there: My apologies! Regards, Moonraker12 (talk) 15:28, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply

Your recent editing history at

reverts
on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's

BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. - Josh (talk | contribs) 15:53, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply
