Please read before posting!
I don't always post a full rationale for everything I do, since doing this would take an inordinate amount of time. I do always have one, though, and will be happy to tell you why I did anything if you ask.
PLEASE READ HERE FIRST before asking deletion-related questions.
If you haven't posted a comment already, please put it under a new section at the bottom of the page using markup:
==Section header==
Your comment ~~~~
or click here.
If you have, please post it under the section you started. Responses will be made on your talk page unless you request otherwise.
This page will be archived regularly, generally by an automated process, but that doesn't mean I consider the discussion closed if you have more to say. If your old comments are archived please start a new section on this page for further comment. Please remember to sign your comments using ~~~~.
If I contacted you on your talk page, I'll keep it on watch. Please feel free to reply either there or on this page, whichever's easier for you.
Please refrain from personal attacks. Personal attacks made against me made on this page will be left on it, but this in no way indicates that I approve of them or will not report them if they are severe or continuous. Personal attacks against other editors will be removed or reverted.
Dragon Ball Z help
Hi, I've been a[REDACTED] user for the past few years for the fact of how informatic[REDACTED] can be. However, today I wanted to get some information on Dragon Ball Z (which I already visited in the past), but I was dismayed to find out that it was merged into an article that only gives three paragraphs about it. You can go to the talk page of the redirecting artile article,Dragon Ball, to read all the complains from other users. According to the user who made this happen, User:Collectonian, the dragon ball z (Which was a very comprhensive article) was unsourced and of mere importance. I don't know if you are familiar with the dbz franchise, but it was a huge phenomenon world wide. Can you help? User:Ricardoread —Preceding undated comment was added at 17:30, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
- Seraphimblade can also read both the original discussion having consensus for the merge, the continued consensus reiterated ad nauseum with the few complaints received, and the new discussion, started by Ricardoread himself, which is fully reiterating the merge. Ricardoread, however, is asking for a mediator as he claims that the Anime and Manga project is biased in its views. Seraphimblade, as an administrator, would you be willing to do so to satisfy his demand and perhaps bring some better closure to this issue? -- ] (] · ]) 05:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Regarding disputed sources
Hi there, I have a question about this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/Jehovah%27s_Witnesses_and_blood_transfusions
This article is often edited by the same person, and many of the references that are cited are not public, verifiable sources. For example, references numbered as follows:
19, 36, 39, 42, 46, 47, 59, 60, 97, 98
Those above numbered references as cited in the above article are "letters" written from one party to another. While these may be "authoritative" to the parties involved, they do not constitute publicly verifiable third party facts, so I feel they should not be included. Thus, by extension, the information that these letters support should also be removed, as they would then be without citation and would by default become the opinion of the editor, and nothing more. Just as a reminder, the[REDACTED] guidelines state:
"Articles should rely on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy."
So, I find the reference to the "letters" inappropriate.
As a side point, the person involved in adding these references is known online as someone who is a former member of Jehovah's Witnesses and does not agree with Watchtower and Jehovah's Witness teachings, therefore I feel it is not appropriate for this person to be allowed to continue editing articles on JWs and the Watchtower. I personally made a few edits to some of the material in that article because it was distorted and biased compared to what was stated in the actual cited references. (As an even further side point, I have reason to believe that the person involved in making those edits is in actual fact the same person that the Watchtower wrote to in citation #46 -- but I realize that could be irrelevant.)
Thank you for your assistance and any further information you can provide on this issue and how we can ensure that this article is not being edited by biased, self-serving individuals.

article
The article Family of Barack Obama is a remade version of an article already nominated for deletion called "Obama Family"; which is now redirecting to the new article. I feel it should be deleted but was stopped by some editors who I feel are being POV because they support Barack Obama in the upcoming election.
Also, the article is about one notable persons non-notable family. Other editors are ignoring the WP:NOTDIRECTORY policy and using his family article to coatrack his template.
Also, editor User:Wikidemo acts like an administrator even though they are not to archive discussions and disrupting them. Wikidemo has done this on both the Barack Obama talk page and the Family of Barack Obama talk page. Wikidemo has also been warned about deleting others posts on their own talk page.
