Youssef Rzouga

Hi. I noted in the Deletion Review that Youssef Rzouga's article was left as no consensus to undelete. I found this to be odd since there was a clear consensus to keep the article at RfD, which was why it ended up at Deletion Review in the first place because it was deleted against policy. I don't know the person who the article was about but I suppose I am expected to make a new one, and do I have to make it in user space first? None of my other articles have been deleted or nominated for deletion so is it okay if I just start it in mainspace or do I need to create it in userspace first? Happy to be guided. Thank you. Blissyu2 (talk) 15:28, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

I recommend creating the article in user space and having it reviewed by someone else to ensure there are no notability concerns prior to moving to article space. As a reminder, G4 applies to articles with "same or similar content", but if the article is sufficiently re-worked and no policy concerns are raised, it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for reaching out, Griff (talk) 02:47, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

I'm not sure I can be bothered with all of that. I didn't create the article: I just voted for it to not be deleted, and then it was deleted out of process. Sounds like a lot of work to fix an admin error. Blissyu2 (talk) 08:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

'use VIP for future block evasion.'

What would 'VIP' mean in this context? --Trade (talk) 15:15, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Trade, that would be our equivalent of AIV, or WP:VIP (Vandalism In Progress). Thanks. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 15:17, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Donald Trump Page Issue

Hi, I'm writing to inform you that the page for Donald Trump is semi protected, however, the semi protected template is not on the page. I thought this is something you might wanna know. 2600:4040:21D4:700:2182:BB55:4DA9:502 (talk) 07:51, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for the report. The appropriate template is on the page. Griff (talk) 22:04, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

You're welcome. Thanks for making the change. 2600:4040:21D4:700:ADAC:1EE1:D164:1CE2 (talk) 03:58, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

Funland (Rehoboth Beach)

I also see the report on the Administrators Notice Board page, and thought this might be a better place to have a discussion on the page. Feel free to ask any questions here as it may be a more reliable place for a more private discussion to sort out the problem. Thanks. 2600:4040:21D4:700:2182:BB55:4DA9:502 (talk) 07:54, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

I'm asking for community input, it's better to have it in a centralized place. Anyway, I won't be replying here any more. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 07:59, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Oh, OK. I thought you were just trying to get me blocked, and this would be a better place for me to defend myself. Thanks for the clarification. 2600:4040:21D4:700:2182:BB55:4DA9:502 (talk) 08:06, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Request to close poll Remove Ali Tajdary's article

Hi, my article about Ali Tajdary, the candidate, was removed. The majority vote shows that it should remain in Wikipedia. The polling request time is over and this section is still open.Please close this poll, time is up.thank you --Razeasheghi (talk) 19:55, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

Whoops

Sorry about that small removal. I meant to revert it guess I forgot. Thanks for reverting it Griff. PotsdamLamb (talk) 03:22, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

No problem, we all make mistakes, they all get fixed at some point :) Griff (talk) 03:31, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Yall?

I thought it was y’all? My sister is a redneck and that’s how she spells it. Lol PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 04:05, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

It is y'all, but I feel that the y'all people wouldn't have a problem with me using yall, if you know what I mean. :D Does that mean you have redneck blood? Griff (talk) 02:00, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Hellz no. I was born in GE and raised in NE PA. PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 02:02, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

{{ygm}} PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 02:28, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Replied. NE PA? I'm flying that way in a couple of weeks! Not much to see though. Griff (talk) 02:36, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Yeah I was about 45 min from the Pocono mountains and 45 min SW of NYC. Population at the time was about 1k lol PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 02:45, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

PS waiting on the reply. lol PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 02:49, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Not much to see? Not much to see??? Not much but beautiful countryside! That, and a lot of history, although you have to look for it. (Yes, I'm from there. :) )

And I agree that it's "y'all" -- I have southern (I wouldn't say redneck!) blood. -- Auntof6 (talk) 03:53, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Lol really @Auntof6:. I was raised in a town called Tunkhannock. So do you have a drawl too? My sister picked it up after she moved there and pretty fast too. I find it annoying not when talking on the phone but when she texts me and uses redneck spelling of things because I have to decipher it or I just reply “redneck” then she will reply back “hell yeah and proud of it.” Then tell me in normal English what she was trying to say. Lol PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 05:39, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

@PotsdamLamb: No, I don't have a drawl because I grew up in PA. But I used to develop a slight bit of a southern accent when I'd visit my relatives in the south. -- Auntof6 (talk) 05:50, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

@Auntof6 Wow guess we have a little more in common. I can’t think of many cities or towns I haven’t visited in PA. Amish country was definitely the best though. PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 06:28, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

@Griff I have not gotten the email yet :) PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 01:38, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

You should actually have two of them from about 24 hours ago. :) Griff (talk) 03:32, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

None. You sure they sent? 😊 PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 04:37, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

User rights

Could you remove the patroller rights? I only requested rollback. Appreciate it but patroller was not wanted. Pure Evil (talk) 06:47, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Sure! My bad. Griff (talk) 07:44, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

I used to have them. I will take his place :) PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 01:43, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

Your emails

Hey your emails (qty. 2) just came in. That was one heck of a delay but I got them. I did reply to one of them :) PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 22:42, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

Template Change please

I do not know how you did it, but can you change the |past_members= to |past_member(s)= for me on Template:Infobox musical artist please? PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 00:07, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

nvm I found it PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 00:44, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
