Mr. Mystery has been proposed for deletion. Please see the article for details. NickelShoe 18:54, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
mr. mystery
hiya-
well, to provide your "evidence", you only have to cite the book- ie say, as Mr. Midnight does, that a notice at the back of book states a new series, Mr. Mystery, is now being worked on, and providing the relevant information (page number, book) so this can be found by others. This in itself isn't a copyright issue, you can cite and quote things.
However, my guess, (which is only a guess as i can't read the deleted article), is that the article was deleted because we don't currently know anything beyond that- "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, see WP:NOT" was the edit summary. But you should be able to stub it, with the relevant information that the book will exist and who it will be written by and whatnot, i don't really see why this would be a problem. Speculation on what the book will be about may be problematic.
As to a book cover- the tag you are looking for is {{book cover}}. which must be accompanied by an explanation of why this is fair use of the image.
good luck. apologies about the talk page, it seems to have bloomed exponentially in the last week or so . . .

- Here's the relevant part of WP:NOT, btw- WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_crystal_ball. If you stay within it's guidlines i don't see why you should have a problem . . . I'll put the book on my watchlist so i can see what happens . . . --He:ah? 18:53, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Blocking should be used to stop the vandalism if the warnings don't work and in this case they don't seem to be. A block should not really be used to punish the editor and blocking almost 24 hours after the offence would be more a punishment. Usually in cases like this I have been using the {{subst:bv}} (blatant vandal). Then I will check back and see if they are continueing to vandalise and if so block them. I would suspect that if they vandalise again I would block them. However, they only seem to do it once or twice a week and so it's not very likely to bother them.

- Well thanks for telling me. Sorry about the broken link in my previous message; it should be [[Special:Contributions/209.158.179.18|209.158.179.18]]... --Bruin rrss23 03:08, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

This IP address is apparently a shared IP address registered to Education Service Center District 10 and used by a large number of students. These shared IPs are often the sources of large amounts of vandalism over a long period of time, but it is not usually a good idea to block them immediately. In blocking a shared IP, thousands of individuals could be blocked from editing Wikipedia. The student vandalizing from this IP probably isn't even the same one that has vandalized Wikipedia in the past. A short block should be employed if necessary, but a warning should be given first. If after the bv warning, vandalism had continued, I would have blocked the IP. If you ever see an IP that is engaging in flagrant vandalism and is ignoring warnings, you can report it at WP:AIV to get a quick response. Hope that answers your question.

deleting
hi bruin, there isn't really much of a reason to delete that page- after all, this is a wiki, and the page can easily be changed. so i've removed the comment. pages only get deleted for content if they are copyvios or are decided to be non-notable or otherwise unsuitable for wikipedia- but as this is a talk and the article is fine, i've just gone ahead and removed the nonsense. cheers --Heah? 16:39, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
re: aiman
concerning user aiman, you are not the first to bring up complains against him. I myself had written notes at his user page but he seems to be ignoring it. After awhile, I just gave up on him. __earth (Talk) 10:41, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Image:FlashGet.gif listed for deletion
I have nominated an image you uploaded, Image:FlashGet.gif, for deletion. The deletion discussion can be found here. The reason I've nominated the image is that it is low quality and in GIF format (JPEG, SVG and GIF formats are preferred for Wikipedia images). It has been replaced by Image:FlashGet.png, a replacement screenshot in PNG format. Cynical 22:14, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

- Sorry he got you involved with this. For the record, this person basically added his own fictional original research into the articles, so he got mad when I removed them.--CyberGhostface 21:15, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
