Image:Information.svg Hello, I'm C.Fred. I noticed that you recently removed some content from :Chicago Postcard Museum without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Based on your comment on the talk page, you appear to be deleting this article because another article was deleted. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia to make a point. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 04:08, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Image:Ambox notice.svg There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:Neil Gale and the Chicago Postcard Museum. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 04:56, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you C.Fred. I just emailed Wikipedia directly too.

:@Nick Gale- As far as I can determine, none of thematerial you are deleting from the article is copyrightable. Ideas, including descriptions of things, are not subject to copyright, only the wording of the descriptions is. Are you claiming that the words are direct copies of something you own? Where can we verify this?

In the meantime, please stop serially removing material from the encyclopedia. This is called edit warring, and can result in your being blocked from editing in the future.

In general, you should also note that you cannot be "in charge" of determining what can and cannot go into the article. We don't allow that. Please keep that in mind. Thanks, BMK (talk) 05:04, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Image:Information.svg Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (File:Insert-signature.png or File:Signature icon.png) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 16:01, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Hey. Since you want the Chicago Postcard Museum article deleted, I'd suggest staying away from the AfD. Consensus is already leaning towards the museum being non-notable and all you're doing is digging yourself a hole with all of the personal attacks you're slinging around. I'd suggest grabbing a cup of tea and letting the discussion run it's course. Ishdarian 23:58, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
