An editor has asked for a deletion review of The_Maccast. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review.

Dear Alphachimp: I have noticed you have expereince in editing / updating http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Ben's

Would you consider assisting in making corrections to the content so that it is accurate. Here is the history and evidence to support the history:

Hi: I am new to Wikipedia. My username is ArieltheUnicorn. I was utterly'dismayed'''''''at reading the messages about the article on Jim Shapiro. In fact, I used the link and read the article for myself to seee what all the fuss was about. My Dad always taught me to make up my own mind on things like this!! ;0) I AGREE COMPLETELY with the Administrators that the article should have been deleted IMMEDIATLEY!!!!! There was NOTHING positive in the article AT ALL!!! :( :( :( JIm Shapiro is apparently a complete SNAKE he is the type of attorney that all the jokes were made up about! You know, the ones that give the rest the bad reputation!

Hi, On August 26th, 2007 I posted the following in your talkback and I have not received a response yet. Can you please upate me on this request? Thank you.

I am writing to request that you re-list the page related to my podcast. I currently have a page listing my bio here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Christianson and the Wiki link to the information on the podcast itself is a dead since this page was removed. Your rationale for de-listing was cited as CSD A7 - Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject. My podcast is listened to by over 25,000 people worldwide each week. I would argue that is "significant". The show provides entertainment value on par or equal to that of other radio and video shows that are listed elsewhere on Wikipedia. Please reconsider your decision to remove this content.

Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phylaxis (talk • contribs) 05:27, August 26, 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the (apparently) invalid WP:AIV report. At the time, from what I understood, personal attacks in all forms are unacceptable. I was patrolling the sandbox, and found this, that looked like an attack. I warned, then he/she added this. I gave a final warning, and then the user added [1]. I thought that it was unacceptable for anyone to add something like " ALL OF THE WIKIPEDIA MODERATORS AND ADMINISTRATERS LOVE SUCKING COCK", "Wikipedier is a pussy", etc. I guess those kind of attacks don't warrent a block for WP:NPA, and I'll ignore such things in the future. Again, sorry for the invalid report.--U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. 21:39, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Alphachimp, haven't seen you in a long time. Listen, I need to ask you a favor. Me and the other participants at WT:NYCPT have worked on creating articles for Staten Island Railway stations and have also modified {{Infobox NYCS}} for SIR article use. But we need to find the opening dates for the SIR articles. But we need to find the opening dates for the stations, and surprisingly; nycsubway.org and stationreporter.net have them. So let me know if you come across any sources that can provide this. I'll continue adding the infoboxes to the stations. Thanks.

Other than that, what's going on? I haven't seen you around the project for a long time. Knowing you're an admin an all, I really do hope you still do participate at the project. Marc Shepherd has also returned and we've also been getting a substantial amount of help from Larry V and NE2. So things at the project are okay, and I hope you're good too. So get back to me when you can, and enjoy your wikibreak. —Imdanumber1 (talk • contribs • email) 20:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

		The Barnstar of Diligence
		I hereby award Alphachimp the Barnstar of Diligence for their continued work in making sure that editors reported to Administrators intervention against vandalism are hastily reviewed for their vandalism, and blocked if necessary! The community appreciates your actions, because without Administrators like you, vandals would be running loose everywhere! Thanks! ✬Dillard421✬ (talk • contribs) 07:18, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You didn't add a block notice to the the talk page. Was that intentional? Thanks for blocking the disruptive user, Enigma ^msg! 17:06, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't think that block went through, because it did not show up on block list. Sorry about that, it was an oversight on my part. alphachimp 06:08, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He's requesting unblock. While I would like to see him change the username, do four vanity edits really warrant an indefinite block? I'm inclined to unblock and offer another chance, unless there's more to the story. Daniel Case (talk) 08:23, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the username merited an indefinite block by itself. I have no objection if he changes his username. alphachimp 13:46, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, looks like he was inidef blocked. alphachimp 13:47, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. As per the discussion over at Bot Requests, are you still willing/able to help out with my request? If so, here is what I would like Alphachimpbot to do:

Main Task

• Add {{WikiProject Companies}} to the talk page of any mainspace article using Template:Infobox company or Template:Infobox Defunct Company, if of course it is not already there.

Additional Tasks, not required but would be nice if they are easy to accomplish

• Set the class parameter of the WikiProject Companies banner to "Stub" if a stub template is used on the article
• If the banner for WikiProject B&E ({{Business}}) is already on the talk page, but the class & importance parameters have not been set, then remove it (this was agreed with WP B&E participants at this discussion)

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks! Richc80 (talk) 12:54, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll look into setting it up and get back to you. alphachimp 13:45, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am beginning to set up the bot for this run. Thanks for your patience. alphachimp 03:10, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just popping in to remind you about the possible botting. On a completely unrelated topic how long did it take you to become an admin? I know it is very off topic but I am a curious person. –– Lid(Talk) 10:04, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Your name popped up while browsing which surprised me as I thought you had vanished sometime last year, nice to see you. As it turns out it takes fourteen months from that comment for me to become one and due to you helping me out a fair bit way back when this means you are indirectly responsible for the hundreds of complaints on my talk page from creators of articles I have deleted. Now how do you feel? –– Lid^(Talk) 11:04, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

haha, there's nothing quite like causing lots of complaints. Congratulations on your relatively new adminship. I wish I had known so that I could have voted. Keep up the good work, alphachimp 20:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I posted an article about the North American Nunchaku Association and you removed it. Please let me know why. There should be no reason it was removed.

The article failed WP:CSD criteria A7 regarding the notability of groups. alphachimp 03:00, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I dunno how often you monitor the AIV Helperbot talk pages, but there have been a couple of weird report deletions by Helperbot2 recently (User talk:HBC AIV helperbot2#Odd report removal). I am guessing there is a race condition where helperbot reads the page, as user submits a report, then helperbot writes the page back?

If so, you probably already thought of this, but I suppose the bot (or, sigh, another bot) could detect this kind of condition by looking at the helperbot edit summary and if there were modifications that did not match the edit summary, restoring those?

I dunno, just thinking out loud. Or maybe this race condition happens so rarely that it doesn't matter :) --Jaysweet (talk) 15:11, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, just letting you know that your bot (as well as all the rest in the series) appear to have died. I assume this is a toolserver issue, since they all died at once, but the IP addresses aren't blocked, so I was checking to see if there was something you could look into. None of the bots have made any edits in the last 50 minutes. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 20:53, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Mykungfu (6th)
Hi AC--After some time off, the MKF sockpuppet appears to have returned--even assuming good faith, his/her edits are the same, and he immediately went to the same edits he left when blocked before. After attempting to use several open proxies to circumvent the blocks on his former accounts, he now appears to be editing from User:RobertOgleFan. I am just contacting admins like yourself that have had experience with MKF. -RoBoTam^ice 14:50, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This delete (which you beat me to by just a couple seconds) probably should have been as "attack page" or some such, rather than "patent nonsense" (which it wasn't).

I would like to suggest that the deletion of the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canasta_(band) be reconsidered. Below is information supporting the criteria for notability (music) as well as additional supporting documentation.

1. Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable.[note 1] This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries...

http://www.breakthruradio.com/index.php?b=artist.php?id=159

7. Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.

From the above Sun-Times article, by Jim Derogatis...

"Though its popularity can be traced to the indie duo Cardinal in the early ’90s, the ork- (short for “orchestral-”) pop genre has produced some of the best bands in the Chicago underground in the last decade, starting with Yum-Yum and continuing with the Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, the 1900’s and Head of Femur. Canasta certainly deserves a place on this list..."

10. Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article.) A link to the trailer for Diminished Capacity (IFC Films), starring Matthew Broderick and Alan Alda, which features Canasta's "Slow Down Chicago" (it comes in about halfway through)... http://ifcfilms.com/viewFilm.htm?filmId=776

6. Is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles, or an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians. Canasta's vocalist is a member of The Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, who's already featured on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotland_Yard_Gospel_Choir)...

Other information of note...

Canasta was involved in Barack Obama's online campaign: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=E6CD48AEE4C3053E

And was invited to join Barack Obama at Chicago’s gorgeous Riviera Theatre (capacity: 2500), as part of a fundraiser for his Democratic Primary bid: http://www.canastamusic.com/images/photoalbum/ChangeRocksDecember7,2007/photo/0 http://www.canastamusic.com//shows/flyers/2007-12-07-ObamaPoster2.jpg

Several television commercials that made use of our music, including Mission Federal Credit Unions and Oklahoma City Community College, all viewable here... http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=8532266C07419B76

• Canasta has performed for sizeable audiences all over the country, including stops at the SXSW Festival (Austin), CMJ Music Marathon (NYC), CMJ Rock Hall Fest (Cleveland) and Tomorrow Never Knows Fest (Chicago).

• In their hometown, they have headlined the legendary Metro, held the esteemed “Practice Space” residency at Schubas and played sold-out gigs at Double Door, Empty Bottle, Subterranean and Schubas.

• They’ve shared stages with artists such as Wilco, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Macy Gray, Grizzly Bear, Kaiser Chiefs, Sloan, Devotchka, Voxtrot, Menomena, White Rabbits, The Lemonheads, The Delgados, The Dears, The Posies, Jeremy Enigk, The Clientele, The New Amsterdams, Crooked Fingers, American Music Club, Longwave, Earlimart, Califone, Annuals, etc.

• Both of their self-released CD's, including the Find the Time EP, as well as the full-length, We Were Set Up, have sold out of their first 1,000 copies.

• While preparing demos for their sophomore follow‐up, Canasta invited talented friends to remix and re-imagine their debut record’s songs, resulting in We Were Mixed Up. All in all, it’s nearly 100 minutes of music, re‐imagined by some of the most talented folks Chicago has to offer, including members of Office, The Hood Internet, Brighton MA, Allá and others. The album is available as a free digital download from their website.

• Canasta's debut full-length was recorded with Ted Cho (Poi Dog Pondering) at North Branch Studio, home to Smog and Jeff Tweedy, and mastered by Mike Hagler (Wilco, The New Pornographers). The album featured guest appearances from vocalist Edith Frost, upright bassist Barry Phipps (The Coctails), trumpeter Max Crawford (Archer Prewitt), pedal‐steel guitarist Steve Dorocke (Freakwater) and cellist Alison Chesley (ex‐Verbow).

Thanks for the welcome Alphachimp. Can you look at the new page I created and let me know if I did it right? It's a translation of an existing page in the Catalan Wikipedia (Viquipedia), plus I added a few references.

Here's my page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Lizcastro/Toni_Strubell_i_Trueta

And here's the original: http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toni_Strubell_i_Trueta

What do you think?

Why would you possibly choose to remove all of Betty's info she's compiled to inform the public of the dangers of excitotoxins? Plus so much more of her hard work to serve to keep the public awake in order to guard their own health? Could it be that you have fallen in line with the agendas of Big Pharma and the Global Elite for population control? If her name is mentioned anywhere, so should her mission be. The fact that you've deleted her page on this is suspect.

Please consider a re-post, and thank you for your time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.12.16.4 (talk) 14:15, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I notice Payzone article was previously deleted by yourself, am I okay to re-add it if the text is compliant? RoyalBlueStuey (talk) 10:25, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

A substantial part of the article,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_impetus

concerns a "tunnel experiment," as proposed by Galileo in his Dialogo.

The article would clearly benefit by having it pointed out that, although it could be, the experiment has as yet not been performed. In its original form the idea is to have a tunnel dug through the Earth so that a test object ("cannonball") can be dropped into it. This is, of course, impossible. But the same physical principles would be revealed by using laboratory-sized massive bodies instead. The experiment could be performed in an Earth-based laboratory or in an orbiting satellite.

Articles that discuss these possibilities and present further reasons for doing the experiment can be found at:

http://astroreview.com/issue/2012/article/interior-solution-gravity-experiment

and

http://astroreview.com/issue/2012/article/the-direction-of-gravity

I have no experience contributing to Wiki, but feel this issue is important enough to learn how to do so, if this message is not sufficient to make it happen. Please advise. Thank you.

Hi there, can you please unprotect my user page now: User:Christiaan. Thanks.

Unfortunately, Alphachimp hasn't been active for awhile and may not see this anytime soon. However, if you'd like me to unprotect the page, please let me know. Newyorkbrad (talk) 15:59, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jason!

My name is Suzy Beck, I'm a producer for a show called Food Paradise that airs on the Travel Channel. I'm currently working on an episode all about Fried Chicken and we featured Jacques-Imo's as one of our "Fried Chicken Paradises." Obviously we can't talk bout Jacques-Imo's fried chicken without mentioning Austin Leslie! I'm looking for a photo of Austin Leslie to use in the piece and I found the photo that you posted on Wikipedia. Travel Channel is really strict with permissions to use photos, and I noticed that Jason Perlow is credited as the source - is he the photographer? If he is the photographer, do you have a way that I can get in contact with him to see if he will sign a material agreement allowing us to use his photo? Please feel free to email me at [email protected] and please also feel free to pass my email address align to Jason Perlow.

I hope to hear back from you soon!

Kindest regards,

~Suzy~

I came on Wikipedia and got this message:

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to "Cascade Festival of African Films", you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Alphachimp talk 02:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure what this is about, as I have no idea what that topic is or why I've been accused of messing with it. I think you've made a mistake. I VERY RARELY edit ANYTHING on this site, and even then it's only been articles about heavy metal music. This has me baffled. Please let me know what's going on.

As you can see from the timestamp, that warning was issued in 2006. Six years ago, someone else was presumably assigned to the IP address that you have now. So the warning wasn't really addressed to you, and you can disregard it. Newyorkbrad (talk) 22:28, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, after long years since making it (I think it was me, maybe it was already there), I was going to start a community page and a corresponding dab per [wiki-search below the available redlink]

06:13, 20 February 2007 Alphachimp (talk | contribs) deleted page Hatzic (Deleting page per CSD A1: Short article that provides little or no context.)

Many BC local and community articles were just stubs at the time; did it not have a stub tag? I still find the occasional one that doesn't. It might not have had one maybe? And a simple google search would have come up with the major community and area of the Fraser Valley that this is, with a high school, a native archaeo site and museum, lake and adjoining prairie and mountain all taking their name from "Hatzic", which was the name used for the people of the locality; given it's an obscenity for the male member, referring to a root gathered in the area, what their actual name in Halkomelem was I don't know; unless in the days it wasn't an obscenity per cultural changes in times past and was in fact the name of the group. They are linked west to the Kwantlens, as I was recently told by another user who's steeped in local lore (he's 84)

The primary topic of that title is a major topic, i.e. the community, and has numerous related dabs; rather than deleted it you should have tagged it for expansion and improvement. Or perhaps contacted the author; if it was me I was around Wikipedia for a while already and had made many community/locality titles for BC, this may have been one of them.

I'll be recreating it later on today or tomorrow; a bit stunned it's not there, it's a major neighbourhood of Mission, British Columbia, an OMI mission school located there is the town's namesake, and one of the most historica locations in British Columbia for a number of reasons.Skookum1 (talk) 08:55, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
