617:. That should prove notability, right? Now, you should ask yourself, why did this happen? Why did you nominate an article on a very important person for deletion based on lack of notability? Being an experienced editor myself (several years experience), I suggest that you use the links in the article to check this person's position. In this example, had you checked, you could have found out that he was one of the six leading rabbis of Jerusalem's
512:
I’m safe to say that the relevance was quite well established. A stub article doesn’t equal irrelevance. As for the other articles, I’ve removed the tag in those, where the notability is blatant (more reference to these articles will be provided in the future, I hope). As for the others, I leave the burden of argumentation to their authors, or to somebody that knows something about the subject. Best regards,

rabbinical organization, which represents tens of thousands of strictly
Orthodox anti-Zionist Jews in Jerusalem. Again, I don't want to sound offending; it's just something that perhaps, in the future, you could keep in mind when dealing with notability questions. The "Google check" also isn't always
643:
For the record, you didn't come off as offender per se, but I do take issue with the implication that I am ignorant, though you did not say such explicitly. I read the article and made what I thought was the right decision. If you take a quick look at my main page, I state quite clearly that I don't

The attempt of making humour was not particularly successful. If I were you, I would restrain from trying for a while. I completely agree with you when you write that the burden of pointing out the relevance of an article lies with the author. For two of the tagged articles, of which I’m the author,
548:
I'm glad we've sorted it out. Another thing: I was not notified that the articles I started were proposed for deletion, so I suspect that the authors of the other articles tagged in your today's campaign might also not have been notified, as it would be right procedure. In the case you haven't done
495:
Now, on to your first issue; Don't assume that the burden of make an article notable lies with me. It lies, in my opinion, with the person who created the article. If you feel that there is more out there, then do it yourself. You know, as opposed to suggesting that my motives are to be questioned.
637:
And a good day to you as well. Since you took the time to address your concerns, the least that I can do is respond to them. First, I think it should be stated right up front that I never use the "Google" method. Second, I have had nothing but frustration when it comes to placing tags. The one you
589:
Well, I do use it actually. However, the computer at work, which I am on now, does not support it. IE only apparently. So, the majority of my work is simple patrolling for weasels and PoV. To be honest, I am probably not going to worry about tagging anymore. There is just too much hostility for my

It gives you an extra menubar that automates tagging, and is a great help in picking the right tags. It also automates the process of creating all the entries (including the entry on the original creator's page). As with all automated products, it does need some care, but it's vastly easier than

After I was done, I got the amusing idea that someone was bound to make the assumption that I was some
Slovenia-hating bastard and come after me. Guess what? I was right. Well, I say again, my friend, I have no hatred for anyone or anything. Well, I don't like spiders. As for my homepage, I was

PROD is a system similar to speedy-deletion for those deletions where there is unlikely to be any opposition at all. If you think someone might contest your reasoning, use AFD. Regards
205:
The second issue, or point, as it is an opinion, is regarding the talk pages of articles. I have noticed that many of the articles I have encountered have no activity at all on their respective pages. This tells me that they are rarely visited. I could make a point for deletion or citation or what
476:
Good day to you sir. I have no issues with anyone or anyplace. What I did was hit Random

201:
While I understand your points, agree with them even, I feel I must raise two particular points of my own. Oh, thank you for taking the time to write me about this matter. Anyways, the first issue I have is with the sheer volume of applicable templates one can use. Oftentimes they contain similar

Hi. I'm going to reverse part of your recent edit on Cujo - the section where it mentions
Stephen King's views on the book. I assume, given your edit, that you believe it's unreferenced (it certainly doesn't fall into "Weasel Words" territory). However, it's not unreferenced, there is a link

And, since it seems we have reached an agreement of sorts, could I make a suggestion regarding your comment about improving articles that you started? It might be easier to write the article, find sources and then put it in wikipedia. Otherwise, the article sits there as a stub and attracts the

536:
However, I should take a minute to add something to my prior message. Many of the articles that I had tagged had already had prior tags for notability since 2008. This wasn't the truth for all the articles I tagged, but I took it as confirmation that there would be no issue.
155:
because of the following concern: Please note that A7 does only require any credible indication that the subject of the article might be significant or important, nothing more. A candidate on multiple installations of a TV show meets this requirement. You might want to read

merely attempting humor. I thought, perhaps wrongly, that it would be worth some chuckles when the flood of people came to protest my ProD tags. Laugh or not, your choice. I did, however, make a disclaimer just to be safe, so I do thank you for bringing it up.
403:
Actually, there was still a problem with your two AfDs, which I think I have fixed - if you now get complaints that something is wrong with the format, you can blame me. What goes in the AfD page needs to be not just the title and the reason, but a template:

Anyways, the rationale that I used was indeed what you assumed it to be. It might even be a good idea to place such citations at the very end of the statement. Otherwise, as in my case, someone might believe it to be an additional statement with no

Also, just because you are not happy with my choices, I would prefer not to receive a message full of subtle and not so sublte insults. Even if you think I deserve them. And with that, I have nothing more to say. Except that I wish you a good day.
