Please do be nice.

Please read before posting[edit]

  • Post all new sections under a new header at the bottom of this page, not at random. If you make it clear you ignored these instructions by placing it elsewhere, I am likely to ignore your request in turn.
  • If you leave me a message here, I will respond to it here, as fragmented discussions are confusing. I may or may not leave you a notice that I've responded on your talk page. If you specifically request that I do (or do not) give you such a notice when I respond, I'll honor that request. If I contact you on your talk page, I will watchlist it so that I can respond there. If you'd like to leave me a notice when you respond (a ping will also suffice), it would be appreciated, and you'll probably receive a faster followup.
  • No lulztxtspk or emojis on my talk page, please. "You" is spelled "you", "though" is spelled "though", "because" is spelled "because", "people" is spelled "people", and so on. There is no character limit on Wikipedia comments, so there is no need whatsoever for ad-hoc abbreviating. If you don't even take yourself seriously, don't expect me to take you seriously either.
  • If you are an admin here to ask me about someone I blocked for vandalism or spamming/advertising, they've agreed to stop it, and you believe they intend to edit productively, go ahead and unblock them. If you still want my opinion please feel free to ask, but there's no obligation. For more complex cases I would appreciate a heads-up, but please go ahead with your best judgment if I don't seem to be online. I would appreciate it if you'd let me know after you do.
  • If you are here to discuss edits made to an article, please use the article talk page, not this talk page, to discuss them. If I made the edit and the question is specifically directed at me, you are welcome to ping me.
  • If you email me a question or request, and do not indicate why the matter is sensitive and must be handled privately (and such is not immediately obvious), I may ignore it or respond on your talk page rather than by return email. Talk pages are open to other editors to read, and so are the preferred method of communication for matters involving Wikipedia. If the matter you are speaking to me about is Wikipedia-related and would not violate anyone's privacy by being posted publicly, please use my talk page instead of email. This does not, of course, apply to editors who are blocked from editing, though I still may respond on your talk page rather than by return email.

CDK Company[edit]

Hi, I really hate to ask this of a specific person, but since I noticed you made an attempt to clean up CDK Company, I wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a couple minutes and just nominating it for deletion on my behalf. I've made a request (twice), but it's been ignored. My rationale can be copied from this section. Thanks either way. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 02:14, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look if I have time. If I nominated something for deletion, I would need to be sure I think it ought to be deleted. Seraphimblade Talk to me 02:41, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up on Sri Ganesh[edit]

Hi Seraphimblade. Would you be okay if I made a formal request at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Decrease to move the draft I have created here. I believe drafts of salted articles are rarely accepted through AfC unless an admin stumbles upon them. If not, please let me know if this should be sent to WP:DRV instead. Thank you! Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 07:40, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jeraxmoira, just wait for the review. I've had salted drafts accepted before, and of course will remove the protection should the reviewer accept. Seraphimblade Talk to me 08:34, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding AE Sorabino[edit]

I most likely exceeded 500 words with my statements (last being this one) - should I remove or scratch at least that last one or leave it as it is. It was unintentional, I simply lost track, it slipped my mind completely, no wonder as someone who can't remember the last time participating in AE discussion, if ever. Maybe I was a little bit caried a way too after being accused without evidence of posting "flat lie". Anyway, should I remove it, or leave it ...? ౪ Santa ౪99° 21:40, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't intend to remove anything that was already there before I posted the reminder, was just noting that those over the limit should request an extension before putting anything further. Other than that, it's up to you. Of course if anyone has responded to it, then it should be struck rather than removed if you wish to do so. Seraphimblade Talk to me 21:48, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will remove my last post since Levivich still didn't respond to it - is that OK? ౪ Santa ౪99° 21:51, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As long as no one has responded, that is fine. Seraphimblade Talk to me 22:09, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To be on the safe side I struck post that are left in vacuum without reply - if you think that removal would be better ping me and I will remove them or you can do it when you get there. ౪ Santa ౪99° 22:30, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 4 July 2024[edit]

Question[edit]

Hi, again, just to be sure, please tell me if your Sorabino AE conclusion include AfD. ౪ Santa ౪99° 01:06, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone can nominate an article at AfD. The restriction doesn't affect that. If the AfD were closed as "merge" or "redirect", that would be a valid establishment of consensus to do that. Seraphimblade Talk to me 01:08, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I really appreciate it. ౪ Santa ౪99° 01:10, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
