Hi there. You marked How to keeps brown recluse spiders away? as a candidate for speedy deletion - however as it is a copyvio there is a different way of handling them, see Wikipedia:Copyright problems. But anyway such clear cases like that one will probably get deleted after the 7 day grace period anyway. So keep on checking the new pages, we can need every help on that one. andy 17:13, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I'm aware it's a copyvio. I've marked several pages as copyvios in the past - however, I decided to mark this one as a speedy because the person who posted it included a few comments which seemed to me to attempt to imply that they had permission - so I decided to be safe and mark it as a speedy instead, due to the title. If you check the edit history, you'll see that the edit description mentioned that it was also a copyvio. In retrospect, it was a bad idea, but I did have my own twisted logic behind it. >:D Yelyos 17:32, Aug 17, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your support

Hello again, Yelyos. Thank-you very much for your support on the requests for administration page. I know you offered me before, and I wasn't ready, so I apologize for not approaching you- but I felt that it might be better if I were nominated by somebody without a personal relationship- just to keep things as unbiased as possible. Of course, I'm not at all saying that you're a bias person, but people with personal relationships can sometimes have clouded views. I know I simply couldn't live with myself if I thought I was nominated just because I knew another Wikipedian! -[[User:Frazzydee|Frazzydee|✍]] 22:36, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

• hehe, yes. A very valid point, for sure. Congradulations on the nomination (and almost sure adminship, judging from the votes). Yelyos 23:20, Aug 29, 2004 (UTC)

Hello again. Thanks for your confidence (and your vote!). Unfortunately, I just realized that the number of contributions listed on requests for adminship page is wrong. I don't have 1,906 contributions. Instead, I have 1,492. If you want to change your vote, I understand, and I won't hold it against you. Either way- you have my appreciation :). I'll see you around! -[[User:Frazzydee|Frazzydee|✍]] 23:31, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for keeping an eye out

Just saw that you reverted a change to Mr. Hooper on August 19. Thanks for helping, the user you reverted made a ton of mess in various Sesame Street articles, I'm grateful you caught part of what he had done. -- user:zanimum

[edit] Hello Yelyos

Yes, I am Andy Pandini. I got here through doing a web search on Fear of Fanny, a play about Fanny Cradock, which had incorrect information about the author, Brian Fillis. Since I created an entry on Brian, I thought I'd add myself too! However, I accept that adding myself is a bit cheeky. Hey! You could always add details about me from my Biography. Regards, Andy -- user:Pandini

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for your support for my adminship, and for your very positive words. Jayjg 16:42, 14 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the addition

Hi Yelyos. Thanks for the addition to the list of mnemonics page. That is a fun one indeed! Uranographer 11:10, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Glad you liked it - it's one that my piano teacher is fond of using. Yelyos 17:10, Sep 19, 2004 (UTC)

BOO! I nominated you for adminship. Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Yelyos

You've to accept now, ok?

[edit] Sonia Gandhi

Hi, What makes you think Sonia Maino was born Sonia Maino ? She was born as Antonia Maino. What did she do at Cambridge ? Steven claims she did not go to Cambridge University yet that's what Sonia( Antonia Maino ) has been claiming.

Why is opposition party referred to as "Hindu Nationalist"? I corrected it since wikipedia does not allow opinions. It allows "FACTS".

Sorry about the Antonio Maino thing, that was an error on my part. As for the Cambridge part, the link was to Cambridge, England, not Cambridge University, so I assumed he meant the city and not the university - in any case, disputes, comments, questions, etc. about an article are supposed to be settled on the talk page, and not the main article page. As for the Hindu Nationalists, I'm not entirely sure, but I'll leave that as something for those knowledgable on this subject to work out. My revert was primarily aimed at reverting what I saw as an injection of opinion into the article, and I believe I made some errors, and for that, I apologize. Yelyos 03:33, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Matthew Sellitto

Please don't add unverifiable information to articles. anthony 警告 20:41, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for reverting my wiki page. I think that user got a bit upset about me reverting his vandalism, heh. Cyrloc 02:28, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you!

Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my user page. (It looks like that particular vandal needs a bit more encouragement toward reforming.) -[[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 17:36, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Tessaiga

Hi. I have posted a request to revisit this topic at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related_articles). Thanks. Your input will be appreciated. LG-犬夜叉 09:29, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dune (novel)

Hi. That tag you moved from the article to the talk page (notable citation). It's not supposed to be on the article page itself? Why? Kaisershatner 5 July 2005 17:39 (UTC)

If you have a look at Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Notable_citation, it'll show that in all of the cases where that template was used, it was on the talk page. Dune (novel) was the only exception to this, and so I moved it to the talk page. The reason for putting them all on the talk page is probably because it's the sort of template which would be more of interest to wikipedians (as it's a reference to the article itself, and not the subject of the article, and the usage of the template in general tells more about the pervasiveness of Wikipedia than it does about the articles it's placed on) than general readers, looking for information on Dune. It could be contrasted with something like, say, the NPOV dispute template, which cautions readers of the article to take what it says with a grain of salt. Yelyos July 5, 2005 19:48 (UTC)

Sounds reasonable. Thanks.Kaisershatner 6 July 2005 13:55 (UTC)

[edit] templates

why do they even have that one?

Gabrielsimon 6 July 2005 18:21 (UTC)

An IP vandal seems to have created it. It should be deleted soon. Yelyos July 6, 2005 18:24 (UTC)

ahh, good.

a smarter vandal might make a page dedicated to saying mean things about bush instead of chanigng that one... o well :-) Gabrielsimon 6 July 2005 18:27 (UTC)

Yelyos - since you're the one who passed me the message about Frazzydee not having internet access in the first place, do you have any idea when he's getting it restored? →Raul654 04:19, August 20, 2005 (UTC)

Actually, he returned from his original trip, but I haven't been able to get in touch with him, as apparently he's gone off to Vancouver. Yelyos 04:48, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
