Hi, have seen your work around the place on my watchlist, and am quite impressed!
The Original Barnstar
For dedicated work on one of our more neglected areas, the Northern Territory. Orderinchaos 07:29, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Hope you don't mind, but I cleaned up your talk page a bit as the bots had gone to town on it. All the image listings are still there, but under one heading each. I would suggest archiving them or even just deleting them if you don't wish to have the images restored - alternatively, if you want any of them restored, let me know as I am an admin and can bring them back and put a suitable rationale on them. Also feel free to look at
Wikiproject Northern Territory and those of any other states. Orderinchaos 07:29, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply

Ha, I was beaten to awarding this Barnstar. I had been sitting on it for a few weeks as you were progressing through the red inlks on {{City of Darwin suburbs}}. I would also like to say "well done" for your work on Darwin and creating high-quality stubs on Darwin suburbs. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 09:17, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lisa Andrews. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. And using a sockpuppet to do it only exacerbates the situation.

section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright
infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.
