RfB

Waterfox would like to nominate you to become a bureaucrat. Please visit Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship#About RfB to see what this process entails, and then contact Waterfox to accept or decline the nomination. A page has been created for your nomination at Misplaced Pages:Requests for bureaucratship/Courcelles . If you accept the nomination, you must formally state and sign your acceptance and answer the questions on that page. Once you have answered the questions, you may post your nomination for discussion, or request that your nominator do so.

Forgive me for spamming your talk page again, but I wanted to say that I wasn't quite satisfied with the first time you declined my offer for you to run a RfB. As you said yourself, redundancy is good. You are one of the admins who would be best fit for being a bureaucrat, in my opinion, especially when I consider that you're probably the person who replied to the most RfAs in the past year and you're also the administrator with the most rights changes, according to the admin action statistics. If Maxim and Hersfold did it, why not you? ;) — Waterfox 01:11, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

...I think a no is a no? There's more to consider than just "you tick the right boxes". sonia♫ 01:45, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
Yes, I know that there's more to it than that. I have seen Courcelles' responses to RfAs, and he takes in consideration not only his own thinking, but also that of the others. He doesn't take !voting lightly and his answers are always of the most comprehensive and sophisticated. I often find myself agreeing with said !votes, more than those of anybody else. Courcelles understands that there's more to !voting than just S/O/N alignment, and that's a quality which is looked for in a bureaucrat. — Waterfox 02:29, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
I'll consider it... Courcelles 08:22, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

A new "Kim Lee" page is needed

Greetings. You recently deleted the page for "Kim Lee", since it was indeed about a specific person who does not meet the notability criterion. However, the page needs to be up again but strictly as a REDIRECT to the Kim Lee (disambiguation) page. The reason is there are numerous persons with that or a similar name, with many of them notable enough to have their biographies in Misplaced Pages. I already submitted here a request to UNDELETE.-The Gnome (talk) 10:40, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, good idea. I moved the disambiguation page over, no undeletion is required in this case, as the only history that matters is the one at the disambiguation title, which was moved as well. Courcelles 18:09, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Yao Ming on ITN?

Can you explain to me how Yao Ming's retirement is worthy of inclusion on the ITN template? He's not one of the all-time greats, and surely there's more important news going on right now in the world? – PeeJay 13:53, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

At the time it went up, there was a consensus at WP:ITN/C that it merited inclusion in the section. If there is no longer such a consensus, (and I haven't looked today), someone will remove it. Courcelles 18:11, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

About a deleted page

Dear Courcelles

You have achieved the deletion of a page. If I have new arguments against your decision, may I discuss that with you, or should I proceed in an other way?

thanks --Amintib (talk) 16:16, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Please discuss them here, and please mention which page you are talking about. (Your account has no deleted edits, or edits to an AFD that ended in delete, so I have little idea what you are discussing at his moment.) Courcelles 17:21, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

You disrespect me, a dolt!

You failed to read my information that you supposed to place the information in my comment area, not under photography gallery so I am deleting your information without reading your information. I don't cooperate with wikipedians who disrespected my information as "I also delete messages without reading them if they are not in comment space. I will not read messages if they are under photographes space, userboxes space, or Cculber007 profile." I am removing the information off without reading so I don't read yours. I split on disrespectful and rude wikipedians. If you repost same under my photography gallery again then I will continue removing until you read my information and put information in right place. There is your "unread" information back.Culby (talk) 03:30, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Really, dude? Misplaced Pages takes a mellow attitude to enjoy. Automated tools do these kind of things. Won't be the last time Twinkle drops something like this on you if you're going to upload images here, and no one who is using it will ever look at your talk page before the note is left. These talk page notes are a courtesy, and I surely did not deserve this level of vitriol in response. Courcelles 03:44, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Diligent

First time that ever happened to me, we both blocked him within seconds of each other (me 2 weeks, you a month). Mine came after yours, so I upped it back to a month, which I'd almost lengthened it to anyway. Gwen Gale (talk) 22:28, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

No worries, I'm not overly fussed about the length, as long as Diligent gets the message that what he did was unacceptable. Courcelles 22:50, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Now That's What I Call R&B

You deleted the article for Now That's What I Call R&B following the discussion that took place at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Now That's What I Call R&B (2nd nomination), but shouldn't the article, Now That's What I Call I Wanna Rock, have been deleted, too, as part of the same discussion? Thanks. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 22:00, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Yep, you're right. It's deleted now, sorry for the oversight. Courcelles 22:03, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

SPI help?

After reading the SPI, I think I'm going to leave that one for someone else to handle. Courcelles 17:20, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Average Joe's Entertainment

Just wondering what made the previous version of Average Joe's Entertainment a possible hoax. What was in the prior version? Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • 23:26, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, not really sure. The old version is at User:Courcelles/Average Joe's Entertainment for you to look at (note I took the maintenance tags off, so look at what it looked at before my revisions.) Courcelles 23:38, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Looked fine to me. I asked the tagger. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • 00:32, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
You can delete that draft. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • 02:31, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Someone already did. :) Courcelles 19:15, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
