==Ranson==
I think we are probably talking about two different people, but I dod not know and I am curious. Thomas "R" from Augusta County it is said was involved with the tombstone for [[Stonewall Jackson]]'s mother, [[Julia Neale Jackson]] in [[Ansted, West Virginia]]. Thomas Davis Ranson was an attorney in Staunton, VA for the [[Tidewater Railway]] when it was formed in 1904. I have found some mention of Thomas Davis Ranson at the Library of Virginia online, he apparently was a judge at some point. I am also very interested in anything you might run across about [[William Nelson Page]] or [[Emma Gilham Page]] each of whom had relatives in Augusta-Staunton-Rockbridge. Emma's dad was William Gilham of Civil War and William Page was co-founder of the [[Virginian Railway]] (and its' precedecessor Tidewater and [[Deepwater Railway]]s). Glad to share and hope you do same with any info on these.

BTW, we have been fighting an ill-concieved suggestion at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bad Newz Kennels dog fighting investigation]] if you want to chime in. Thanks, let's stay in touch.

==Sillygostly==
It's not vandalism? What would you consider someone who constantly deletes the articles even being told he has to post a Quick Deletion tag to even get a consensus? Check my talk and the SPore talk page - he talks a lot of shit towards me. He refuses to concede on any point, ever, and he acts like the Administrator he isn't. He doesn't like being called a kid? What do you want me to call a 16 year old who claims to be a crossdressing sunken chest Muslim Australian? [[User:JAF1970|JAF1970]] ([[User talk:JAF1970|talk]]) 04:39, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
:I wasn't deleting anything. The Spore DS/Mobile articles were merged with the main Spore article. [[User:Sillygostly|Sillygostly]] ([[User talk:Sillygostly|talk]]) 05:00, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

== Spore ==

JAF1970 continues to revert my edits, and refuses to reach a compromise or a consensus with me. My only argument is that the DS and Mobile versions of Spore are simply not notable enough to justify separating them into their own articles, and given that the DS/Mobile articles consist of nothing more than copy/pasted information from the Spore (video game) article, I believe a merge is in order. The norm with video game articles relating to games that are released concurrently under the same title are contained within a single article. For instance, another game released under a *slightly* different title by EA was [[Need For Speed: Most Wanted]] (the PSP verison was released as "Need For Speed: Most Wanted '''5-1-0'''"), however PSP-specific information was confined to the main NFS:MW article, and I believe Spore should follow suit.

==Block template==
Hey. I know I have never had any interaction with you, and hate to bother you, especially with a question that makes me sound so newb and where the answer is probably simple, but I have a question for you. For two days now, I seen you handle AIV, and being a newly appointed administrator I blocked a user yesterday. However, after doing so and issuing the the uw-block1 template, I was unable to sign it within the box. By putting it within the template, it breaks it, by signing it outside the template it is no longer in the box, and by simply leaving the template it does insert my signature. Again, sorry to sound so dumb, but any assistance would be helpful. Thanks, <small><span style="border:1px solid #FF3333;padding:1px;">[[User:SorryGuy|<b>SorryGuy</b>]] [[User_talk:SorryGuy|<font style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#FF3333;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</font>]]</span></small> 23:34, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

== Bodypump Entry ==

The article is not advertsing so I removed the header. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Pipera|Pipera]] ([[User talk:Pipera|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Pipera|contribs]]) 14:02, 28 February 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BodyPump

We have been throught this since 2006 please read the history of the article before saying this or making any other comment regarding the adding of that header as they should have before adding that header. This situation was cleared up way back then and I would consider it pointless to call it spam when clearly ages ago it was declared not spam.

== Bodypump Entry ==

We have been down this path a number of times since 2006 when the initial article was placed here at wikipedia. I am aware of the debate regarding the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BodyPump

I don't consider the article advertising as much as I removed the tag. There is an right also to remove the tag as well. Over periods of time people have commented that this is advertising. Lets consider half of the content here is so called advertising from articles on Sony and American idol are also advertising and would consider that the placement of the tag is a mute point and should have not be considered in the first place.

I encourage debate but when rights of modifying an article and removing a tag that has no formal basis is also a mute point. As surely you can consider academically.

Comments?

== Quick question regarding an AfD ==
You closed [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Norman Beaker]] as a keep and yet the count was 9 to Delete and only 5 to keep??? And that would be 10 to delete if you count the nominator. How does an clear 'delete' wind up as a 'keep'? Thanks [[Special:Contributions/142.167.92.127|142.167.92.127]] ([[User talk:142.167.92.127|talk]]) 02:33, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

:Hi, and thanks for the question - I'm happy to explain my reasoning. The raw "vote" count was actually 8 deletes to 6 keeps, even including the nominator (he "voted" in addition to nominating). One of the deletes, Ghmyrtle, actually switched to keep, though he didn't strike through the original delete comment so it's easy to miss.

:More importantly, AfD is a discussion rather than a straightforward vote, so the quality of the arguments is key in a case where the raw count is close. In this case, three of the delete comments occured prior to the sourcing and rewrite by [[User:Cricket02]]. Two of those did not comment after the rewrite, so I discounted their initial comments somewhat, as they had commented on a different version of the article. The only one of those three who did comment after the rewrite was [[User:Enigmaman]] (the nom), who conceded that the article was "arguably up to standards" after the rewrite. Four delete comments came in after the rewrite, but, of those, two had virtually no content and one switched to keep.

:So, the only substantive arguments for deletion, after the rewrite, came from Enigmaman, and he seemed on the fence, and from Richhoncho. In contrast, just about all the keep arguments were substantive and offered reasoning beyond simply linking to a policy. So, my analysis was that the keep side had the stronger arguments and carried the consensus.--<span style="font-family: Palatino Linotype">[[User:Kubigula|Kubigula]] ''([[User talk:Kubigula|talk]])''</span> 04:21, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

== [[:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kush (herb)]] ==

Hi, I wonder if you would reconsider this close please? The problem, as I stated in the AfD, is that none of the content is verifiable. Though an editor has offered to improve the page, none of the searches that he cited contains reliable sources. The answer, IMHO, is to delete the page and userfy the content. [[User:TerriersFan|TerriersFan]] ([[User talk:TerriersFan|talk]]) 20:31, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
:I agree that it's a concern. I took another look at what's out there, and I think we may be albe to scrape up some acceptable sourcing. I suggest we give Noah a little time to try and source it, and I'll give it a shot too. If we've worked on it for a month or so without coming up with anything that satisfies me, I'll renom it myself. If you aren't sold, you can renom it, and I won't hassle you for being too quick to bring it up again. A no consensus close doesn't carry much precedential weight, so I don't think there would be a problem with renominating it in a month if two editors have committed to looking for reliable sourcing and haven't come up with anything.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:M000067.jpg]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already.

==Thanks - Virginia Glee Club assessment==

Hi. I'm a relatively recent editor, so I really appreciated your taking the time to assess [[Virginia Glee Club]] for [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Virginia|WikiProject Virginia]], and especially appreciated your assessment of it as a B-grade article. If you have some time, I'd really welcome some [[Talk:Virginia Glee Club/Comments|specific suggestions for improvement]]. I have my own roadmap for the article but would appreciate your insights as well. [[User:Tjarrett|Tjarrett]] ([[User talk:Tjarrett|talk]]) 17:19, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

== Your Deletion of my entry - Rum Babas ==

You state:
>Fails WP:MUSIC. Searches yield nothing notable, nor does anything confirm the so called award nomination.

The band were in fact nominated for an Aria award in Australia - Read the spiel on the singers new band and it lists that very fact:
http://triplejunearthed.destramusic.com/artists/View.aspx?artistid=3330

>I don't even know the last names of all the members.
Don't know why - they were all listed..Sandi Novak, Janelle Novak, Michelle Kerr, Katherine Tulich, Kathryn Cann

* Delete, fails WP:V and possibly fails WP:MUSIC, there are some minor claims to notability like being nominated for an award and a member being in a notable band, but right now I see nothing here to verify that this is not a hoax. No All Music Guide entry, the band's name plus the city they come from returns nothing relevant on Google.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 13:37, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

You lived in Sydney Australia in the late 80's did you ? You know about every independant rock band to perform do you ? So you got minimal hits when you typed the band name into a search engine. The fact that there was minimal info was the main reason I chose to add the band's Wikipedia entry !
The drummer has a new band listed at Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spurs_For_Jesus

* Delete. Some references that are non-reliable and can not be cited exist, which leads me to believe that this is not a hoax. However, if you look at the ARIA list of award nominations ([1]), you can see that for 1990 and 1991 the list of nominees is not present, only the winners are listed. So while I think it is possible that the band meets WP:MUSIC, with no references present, it definitely does not meet WP:V, unless someone has an old newspaper or such. SorryGuy Talk 02:38, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

I will obtain evidence from the Aria people and you will then re-up my article....

== [[Paul Iorio]] ==

Want to see if I'm improving with tags . . . almost tagged this as speedy but didn't since of references to major newspapers and is about a journalist. Since the username is the same as the article's subject though, I slapped it with a coi tag. Was I right in handling this? -[[user:WarthogDemon|<font color="007FFF" face="Arial">'''Warthog'''</font>]][[User_talk:WarthogDemon|<font color="2A52BE" face="Arial">'''Demon'''</font>]] 04:22, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Kubigula, I think [[Virginia]] is about ready for a Feature Article try.
