User talk:Noelledeg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Noelle is taking a long wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia very soon.

Hello Noelledeg, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date (but I believe you already know that!). If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  Hope you stick around! -Aabha (talk) 13:32, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] From Talk Tennis?

Is this the person from www.tt.tennis-warehouse.com ?

Yes, I am the person. :) Noelle De Guzman 01:13, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the welcome!

Thanks for the Five Pillars, Aabha! I've been looking for one place to find all of these. Noelle De Guzman 16:32, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

You're most welcome! Hope you have a good time reading everything. By the way, its just a suggestion, but do put something on your userpage, however little. We all work, afterall, to have as few redlinks as possible! :) -Aabha (talk) 18:32, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User page added

I've written a few things about myself and added some external links as well. Thanks for the suggestion, Aabha! Noelle De Guzman 04:40, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

I added a Contributions section. Noelle De Guzman 15:53, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] You're welcome

For the compliment on my page. As you get more comfortable with Wikipedia, feel free to go out and do newarticle patrol (speedies, AfDs, catting and stubbing) yourself. It's a great way to learn the ropes. Daniel Case 17:25, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dean Goldfine

Hey!

Great work on the article..can't believe an entry on him didn't exist! Nice to have people interested in tennis, it could do with some work. Btw, the userpage looks good:) -Aabha (talk) 15:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks! Yeah, I couldn't believe it either, especially since he coached Todd Martin for a long time (and the Martin article didn't even have a link to a possible Goldfine article). Noelle De Guzman 15:35, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Tennis tiebreak

Can we now delete the stuff on tiebreak from the tennis article, since, as you originally pointed out, it's so poorly written? JJ 23:18, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

I think we can just have a short statement on when tiebreaks are played, then leave the history of tiebreaks in the Tennis score article. I noticed that each of the strokes ( Forehand, Backhand) have their own main articles but the Tennis article still has a short summary of what they are. Perhaps we can follow that protocol? Noelle De Guzman 02:31, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AIV

Hey there - I just saw your notes on AIV re vandals to the StarCraft article, and while I'm not an admin, I thought I might still be able to help. I had a quick look at the Main Page, and it seems there's a rather prominent link to StarCraft there - and whenever articles are prominently linked from the Main Page, it's a sure bet that they'll be vandalized often. So the good news is, I doubt that it's a concerted effort on the part of a group of vandals! :) Cheers. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 08:06, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Whew, well, that's some sort of relief. I think. :D I'll go edit the note. Noelle De Guzman 08:08, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Roger Federer

My pleasure. That article is highly vulnerable to all kinds of vandalism, trolling or just simply misguided contributions. Since Federer's "breakthrough", in 2004, there's a lot of people, usually anons, trying to push fandom stuff on that article. In fact, most of the work I do over there is just plain maintenance to keep it minimally within our standards. I remain at your disposal for any assistance in dealing with those kinds of situation. Thanks for your help in keeping the article "real", so to speak. Redux 15:29, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for letting me know. I have blocked the IP for a month (the vandalism itself had already been reverted when I got to the article). Let's see what happens when/if s/he returns from the block. Redux 15:52, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Hey Noelle. I made a very relevant comment (not the old arguments) in the AfD. Hoping to change your mind on the vote, --Noypi380 07:07, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mike Abundo

Hey again Noelle! Belated Happy Valentine's Day! wink, wink...;) just kidding. I found vandalism in the Mike Abundo stub. Actually, I reverted it back to its original, but while I was scanning the vandalized page, I saw what I think is your name (or just happens to be like your name) in the page. Pls check the vandalized copy of the page asap. Lastly, do you know personally user Mike Abundo? And should the Mike Abundo article exist? --Noypi380 14:13, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

That was not vandalism, but is actually the truth. Do a search on the name "Mike Abundo" or my full name "Noelle De Guzman" and you'll find some forwarded messages and other blog entries about the uproar in the Philippine cosplay community caused by Mr. Abundo.
That article is quite the vanity article, though. It was created by Mike Abundo himself and in the version you reverted to, he's non-notable. Noelle De Guzman (talk) 14:48, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
Okay, but I have another problem. There was a comment in Abundo's talk page that is attributed to me, but it is not me. He committed misrepresentation. If he causes any problems, something must be done. --Noypi380 04:13, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
I apologize for the cut-and-paste typo. Corrected. :) -- Mikeabundo, 11:58, 27 March 2006. :)

[edit] No Problem Noelle

Your welcome for the tennis thing. That is the second time I have encountered such vandalism on Wikipedia, the first one was actually kind of funny. There were diagrams of all sorts of penises posted on the article concerning German airports. haha go figure... this one was a little less blatant as I just sort of ran into it as I was reading. All of a sudden, we went from tennis to transvestites and high school proms? hah, it was funny. anyway, i found it appropriate to get rid of that vandalism ASAP. (preceding unsigned comment by Dukee101 (talk • contribs)[1])

[edit] Hope for the flowers

I noticed that you are a SF fan and Filipino? It is rarare for me to find fellow Filipino/as who are into sci-fi. Have you read Dune, Lord the Rings, Harry Potter, Narnian Chronicles, Robert heinlein, Ray Bradbury, SLAN by A.E. van Vogt,Alchemist Coelho? I'm thingking of writing an article on Hope for the Flowers by Trina Paula. There might be a question on notability though but I 'll risk it. You are welcome to start it though. Best regards, and welcome to wikipedia.--Jondel 05:48, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi Jondel! I've read Dune, LOTR, Chronicles of Narnia, but am not familiar with the rest of those writers. (I've also read books by Ursula K. Le Guin and Arthur C. Clarke.) If there are enough sources to start an article about Hope for the Flowers I don't see why it'll be non-notable. I haven't read it, though. Noelle De Guzman (talk) 06:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi. Alternativity here. I noticed you looked at my friendster page after I looked at yours. I was wondering if we already knew each other from the Filipino CS Lewis reader's community. Like Jondel I know how rare Filipino SF fans can be. (I doubt we've met though - we would have recognized each other's Friendster pages.) Anyway, it's just nice to note that one is not alone. Hm. Ayun. Best regards. :-D Alternativity 09:28, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Psst

I'm trying to build support for this nomination in iuts last few days. Please check out this page. Pass it along. Nudge nudge. -- evrik 20:11, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I wish I could contribute half as much as she has. :) Noelle De Guzman (talk) 10:23, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:The Fairly OddParents

Why you delete that? i asked everyone thinks that Cosmo was funny story like " as seen i remember just like yesterday "

next time don't do that again, OK? (preceding unsigned comment by KanuT (talk • contribs)[2])

I didn't delete anything about Cosmo. See here [3]. What I reverted were your spelling and grammar changes to the Talk page, which although well-meant were unneeded. You shouldn't edit other people's talk comments. Also, you broke the link to User:Wack'd about Wiki's profile.
If you want to add your comment again (what you mean by Cosmo saying "I can't do that I'm married..." wired huh?) you can do so, but this time don't touch what other people wrote. Also, it's useful to sign your name and the date after your comments to Talk pages by putting 4 tildes like this ~~~~ after your comment. Thanks. Noelle De Guzman (talk) 10:48, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Roger Federer

OK i was just kidding with the "Swisswatch" Federer thing. I guess I will then add it in the trivia section, since at least TV broadcasters here in Argentina call him "el relojito suizo" ("The Swiss watch"). However, what I wrote in the talk paga has nothing to do with vandalism. It was a criticism to the stupid question brought forward above of whether Federer sould be included in the Swiss-South african list or something of the sort. Besides, it´s just the talk page and the issue was probably solved a while ago.

Wikipedia isn't a place for kidding ;) And you should have placed that comment in the relevant section of the Talk page rather than under the heading "Size matters" where other things were being discussed, otherwise it could very easily be construed as vandalism.
By the way, if you're planning to add that nickname to the trivia section, it would be great if you can give sources to corroborate where the nickname comes from. Thanks. Noelle De Guzman (talk) 05:11, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Andy pic

(copied from User talk:Aabha R)[4] Hi Aabha! You don't still have that old image of Andy that you uploaded for the article, do you? People have been adding copyrighted pics lately and removing the free pics; as a result, the old pics were deleted because they were orphaned. :( Noelle De Guzman (talk) 04:50, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey Noelle!

Oh, as a matter of fact I do. Its definitely on my comp somewhere. You know, someone had tried to upload a new picture on 'my' image's licensing information, and since the latter wasn't being used anywhere anymore, I asked for it to be deleted on my own. I can upload it again if you want. Hopefully my licenses are good enough; the pic is copyrighted, though I have an informal email giving me permission to use it. -Aabha (talk) 16:31, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

(copied from User talk:Aabha R)[5] Please do upload the pic again, thanks. I think it would be better if you gave it a unique name; "Andy_Roddick.jpg" seems a little generic and a number of people have uploaded copyrighted/unlicensed pics with that name through the page's history. Noelle De Guzman (talk) 00:05, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Done that. Its in the article now. :) -Aabha (talk) 04:31, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Complaint

LOOK HERE A$$HOLE, I HAVE NEVER ONCE VANDALIZED ANYTHING *EVER*, AND IF YOU FALSELY ACCUSE ME OF ANY CRIME EVER AGAIN I WILL SUE YOU ***IN A COURT OF LAW*** preceding unsigned comment by 205.188.117.8

Since you're an AOL user, you use a rotating IP proxy. Other people use the same proxy and in your talk page there's a notice that states: "These and other proxies are shared among thousands of AOL users. If you are frustrated by irrelevant comments appearing here, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself." Thank you for your comment, but the fact is that the IP you used at that particular moment has a history of vandalism and has been warned for it. Every time you load a new page, you're also using a new proxy. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 06:01, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gallery

Thanks for the introduction. I appreciate it. I'm new to Wiki this is for sure. Nevertheless I don't understand your judgement: you're essentially saying 2 pix is acceptable on the article but not 3. If there were 10 or 20 pictures I would understand and agree with you but I only added too pics and you decided rather arbitrarily to remove one of them and not the other. I would challenge first the one you chose to remove out of the 2, second the rational. I strongly believe that sports in an encyclopedia (especially tennis) are better illustrated by graphic media (image or better yet video). I agree that it should not be a gallery but your definition of gallery starting at 3 is not acceptable. --User:Akademan (talk) 6:55p.m., March 25 2006 (PST)

Actually the issue was concerning the addition of a "Photo" section. Check Talk:Maria Sharapova for the rationale behind the removal of the section. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 02:44, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Ok. Well you should have suggested to change the format not delete part of the article. I'll be restructuring the page to re-insert the removed picture and add on the side and not in a separate section. See also the International Space Station that has 25 images in my count or these other ones: Moon, Lance Armstrong, George W. Bush. --User:Akademan (talk) 1p.m., April 2nd 2006 (PDT)
I see, and thank you for taking the initiative. The reason I put the pic in your talk page after I removed it from the article was because I didn't want it to be orphaned (and automatically deleted by bot). I knew the pic was valuable and could be used in other ways, but didn't know where it could go in the article. I meant no offense to you. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 14:28, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clay court specialist

Hey Noelle--I recently created the article Clay Court Specialist. Tell what you think? Does it need any revisions, should I add anything else? Stanley011 18:31, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grass, Hard Court specialist, etc.

Good call--I will create the above articles. I feel they should all be linked somehow but am not sure how to do it. Could we perhaps create one article on "court surface specialists" maybe and then have different sections: one on "clay" another on "grass" etc. Maybe we could even have one big article on types of surfaces and detail the different skills each one requires: including grass, astroturf, rubber, sand, etc. If we want to go to town on this, we can even distinguish between the TYPES of clay courts, like the terre batu at Roland Garros versus the quicker type of clay at Hamburg. What do you think the most sensible way to approach it is? Best, Stanley011 00:22, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

There's a section about the types of court within the Tennis article, with links to the Clay court, Grass court, and Hardcourt articles, so we don't need a separate article for court types. (Or maybe, if the Tennis article editors want to, we could spin off the courts section into its own article.) A court specialist article might be a good idea though. We could move this discussion to the Talk:Tennis page so that more editors interested in this can help. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 01:33, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Removing Content = Vandalism"

I have the right to remove an image if I feel that it is not appropriate for the article just as I have the right to remove a portion of text if I feel it is inappropriate. This is entirely at my discretion and is not vandalism anymore then your putting it back in is. You act as if you own the Roger Federer article exclusively. Your major contributions to it from what I have seen have been minor edits. Also, I noticed you deleted the statement that I reinserted which states that Roger believes in God...if you had been following the edit history of the article you would have noticed that this statement was in it before...and was changed by a vandal and subsequently inadvertently deleted...that is why I reinserted it, Tor.

Sorry Tor, I don't mean to argue with you or participate in an edit war. By no means do I mean to act as if I own the article, but that picture was better than that inserted by the help of admin User:Redux by User:Stanley011's request. Any removal should have had some explanatory text in the Edit summary. As for the "Roger believes in God" statement, if it was in there before, I'm sorry I removed it and you're welcome to add it again--but please place some source for it.

Because you're an IP editor, I don't know if it's actually you who's doing the editing, or some unnamed user. It's hard to assume good faith if the IP editor doesn't leave an edit summary. I suggest you sign up for a Wikipedia account to make all our lives easier.

As for my contributions to the article, I have tried to keep the article as WP:NPOV as possible and am considering a rewrite of the sections to reduce the redundancies. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 08:53, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Im not sure why a christian would require me to provide a reference for a statement about another individuals belief in God which was in the article to begin with without a reference but anyway here it is for your reference:[6]

I may be a Christian, but Wikipedia does have its own standards, which require sources. Thanks.

Regarding your insertion of the image. Your sentence above is not clear to me. Are you saying that this image is better than one which was previously inserted by Redux at Stanley's request. If so how is it better and if you could please reference the previous image I would like to see it. Also, who originally inserted the current image that you have reinserted?

I am checking the article history now (argh! someone broke the infobox again!!!), and it was User:Akademan who placed the current pic in the article [7]. The picture by Stanley with the help of Redux is a far view of Federer. The current one is more detailed, I think.

You have stated that your efforts regarding the article are primarily NPOV. Do you believe that it is possible for an image to be non-NPOV?

The images issue is an entirely different thing from my efforts to keep the article NPOV. My issue with you removing the pic was that there was no justification given for its removal and it left the article without a picture of Federer.

PS: I understand your position regarding IP editors and I understand how you might be somewhat suspicious of IP edits as they might be more likely to be Vandalism. I also commend you for the good work that you have done in correcting vandalism on the RF page. I will be creating a user account as you have recommended, Tor.

Thanks, Tor. Looking forward to editing Roger Federer with you. --Noelle De Guzman (talk) 10:29, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Andy Roddick

Hi Noelle,

Yeah, unfortunately I hadn't asked the image copyright holder if he would release the pic under GFDL when I asked him for permission to use it (that was in October, when I had only just joined WP)..now I have, and he has given me permission for that. I'll upload a picture soon, and hopefully this time there won't be any problem! Aabha (talk) 03:32, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Hey Noelle..I've uploaded and put in a new pic. Done my best to be sure there aren't any hassles this time. Aabha (talk) 09:03, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
Hey! Looking for Andy pics is no trouble at all ;-) Aabha (talk) 13:48, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Articles I Created

Nope--I did not create Roger Federer but did indeed create Robert Federer (which has been nominated for deletion, much to my chagrin!). Look more carefully. All the best, Stanley011 11:16, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

By the way, that was some match yesterday at Monte Carlo--do you think Federer will ever beat Nadal on clay? Stanley011 17:56, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
