An editor has asked for a deletion review of George Colbran. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article, speedy-deleted it, or were otherwise interested in the article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Lester 05:12, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Hi I noticed that you said that this article doesn't appear to be over the bar of WP:BIO#Politicians, however I did make a point of saying that he does meet Wikipedia:Notability (people) and that the page should be edited to show all the other things that he is known for in the area and around Queensland but it is now deleted....would it be OK if I was to start the page again about George himself and the award's and honor's etc that he has been given, he is far better known here for his community work and resturants than a politician.

Thanks look forward to your reply. Thuringowacityrep (talk) 05:39, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if you think you can write a version that gets over the notability bar, you can write a new version in your userspace, say here: User talk:Thuringowacityrep/George Colbran. Then when you're satisfied with it, you might ask the admins involved in the AFD, (me, Orderinchaos, Matilda) to review it and give you feedback and if it meets notability, then move it into the article space. I don't recommend you start writing it in the article space though as it will most likely just get speedy deleted as a repost, but you should be okay to work on it in a subpage of your userspace if you want to.

Padding up the article won't do much, and I don't think there is anything else remotely worthy of a mention aside from what was already in the article. As for the OAM, I concur with Orderinchaos when he goes at the deletion review: "OAM isn't terribly notable. Look at the example they give on the page (some guy who helped young mothers at a high school). The higher orders such as AO or AC are genuinely notable (see for example Anthony Mason (judge))" By all means create a draft and submit, but unless additional noteability can be established there is virtually no chance of it being recreated.

I know that I'm just a plebe but I'd like to thank you for working out the OTRS situation concerning the Summer Bishil article. If the anons would just cite sources instead of changing info while staying mute, it would help a lot! Sorry for bothering you, Dismas|^(talk) 04:55, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe we're all plebes! :) It was a bit tricky because the article we cited had mistakes in it, so I had to go onto Factiva to find alternate sources as there didn't seem to be anything much on Google. I think the problem with the anon in this case is they're just not a Wiki person and so they didn't know what to do or how to fix the mistake. Anyway, I think it's right now but I'll see what they say once they've checked my edit! Cheers, Sarah 05:24, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Was both speedied and deleted by some considerate eds yesterday - I need a copy as there was hardly a time to spit the dummy (no one helps out at the Indonesian project for maintenance anymore) so its basically open game for the deletionsists who have a very limited understanding of the Indonesian project and its whizzy editors :( - I need a copy of the article to reinstate it as I have hardly time to scratch mysefl let alone find refs to chase the xxx's away - cheers SatuSuro 08:53, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, let me have a look...Sarah 11:27, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sent to you, Sats. Sarah 11:30, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ta and thanks mybe i should keep the libel down of others over such a useless article - but hey thanks SatuSuro 11:45, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't mention it. The less chauvinism, the better. It's a good thing that I found out about it, to be honest. Sceptre ^(talk) 00:41, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Last I checked, men don't have a menstrual cycle, so they, by extension, can't get PMS. Or is it just me? :/ Sceptre ^(talk) 01:27, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your small feet may help you reach the stove better :). And is it just me, or is "hate" "feminist" bandied around too much these days? Sceptre ^(talk) 01:53, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reckon it's worth filing a request for arbitration to get him emergency desysopped? His actions might be considered to be putting the project into disrepute. Sceptre ^(talk) 02:04, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tony is a case in his own. The rumour about him cybersexing as a woman, for instance, is well known. But in general, you know what girl is an acronym for online: "guy in real life". Then again, this is Wikipedia - I've often joked that all editors are either LGBT, mentally ill, Canadian, or female. Or a combination of the few. But I digress. I agree we need more guys to comment. That's why I requested it on ANI, for the same reason you've just told me. Sceptre ^(talk) 02:21, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
