PROD[edit]
Hi and thanks for your recent nominations for deletion of some pages that appear to deserve it. I wanted to be sure you were aware of the Proposed Deletion (aka PROD) process - a couple of the pages you nominated appear to be ripe for this process, which is faster and less formal than VFD. In general, if a page seems to obviously be a candidate to be deleted (e.g., it has no quotes, or the subject is not notable, etc.), this is a better first step. If the PROD notice is removed and someone contests it, but the problem remains, then the second step could be VFD. The specifics can be found here: Wikiquote:Proposed deletion. Thanks. ~ UDScott (talk) 17:01, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hi UDScott, I was aware of it but wasn't fully sure either way. I will use PROD in future if I find there are no quotes at all on the page. Cheers, Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 17:02, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Why are spamming "Ping me or visit my Talk Page?" – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 21:24, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, I thought we were supposed to vote on it. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 21:30, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, but you didn't vote, you just left that message. – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 21:31, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi it's supposed to be I support everywhere I signed, sorry if it wasn't clear. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 21:32, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Pinging Ilovemydoodle. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 21:34, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, I think you should make it more, clear I didn't realize it was your signature. – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 21:36, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- I think it's a useful signature for new users but I could have written "support" on each one and signed instead. Glad to have clarified things, @Ilovemydoodle:

Signature[edit]
Your signature is confusing. – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 23:05, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, I have to agree to disagree on that. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 23:25, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Could you a dash to your signature to make it more clear? – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 23:26, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi Ilovemydoodle, I can do yes. Rubbish computer Ping me or leave a message on my talk page 23:28, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Done? – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 23:29, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, put brackets as I felt that makes it less confusing. Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 23:30, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Good. – Ilovemydoodle (talk / e-mail) 23:30, 5 June 2022 (UTC)

- Ilovemydoodle, it wasn't me who created that page with inconsistent formatting. Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 19:48, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
No you removed a space for no reasonNevermind, my mistake. – Ilovemydoodle (Not WMF, Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus, Not a paid editor of Shueisha) (talk / e-mail) 19:51, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
Help needed[edit]
Could you please contact El C on Wikipedia? For more information please see this. – Ilovemydoodle (Not WMF, Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus, Not a paid editor of Shueisha) (talk / e-mail) 19:53, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, I can't do this as blocked users shouldn't edit by proxy, sorry. Hopefully your IP range gets unblocked at some point. Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 20:08, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- I don’t want to edit by proxy, I want you to make your own independent choice of what to say. – Ilovemydoodle (Not WMF, Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus, Not a paid editor of Shueisha) (talk / e-mail) 20:10, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, it is editing by proxy to have someone make an edit on your behalf. I would wait to see if you can appeal the block. Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 20:17, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- How would you recommend I go about doing that? – Ilovemydoodle (Not WMF, Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus, Not a paid editor of Shueisha) (talk / e-mail) 20:18, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

- Hi Ilovemydoodle, that I'm not sure of, sorry. It looked like you were talking to an admin about it on Commons: is that true? Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 20:21, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. The original blocking admin was El C, who blocked me for one week, then later Daniel Case (the admin I was talking to on the commons) blocked me for five years (-tp -ac anononly). – Ilovemydoodle (Not WMF, Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus, Not a paid editor of Shueisha) (talk / e-mail) 20:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, let me know how it goes, Ilovemydoodle. Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 20:34, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

Testing Help[edit]
Could you please help with testing? I need you to add me to this Template, then create a subpage of your user page, then include the previously mentioned Template within the page (without subst). – Ilovemydoodle (Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus) (talk / e-mail) 08:42, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ilovemydoodle, do you want me to hide your name, like the other names in the template, or keep it showing? Cheers, Rubbish computer (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 09:12, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
- Put it the same place as the other (I'll remove it after testing). – Ilovemydoodle (Not a sockpuppet of Antandrus) (talk / e-mail) 09:21, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Discussion[edit]
Could you comment here? – Ilovemydoodle (Not a sockpuppet) (talk / e-mail) 19:29, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
A belated hi[edit]
You and I had a brief discussion of women categories recently so I was thinking of you when I checked for updates on Wikiquote:Administrators'_noticeboard#Why_was_this_category_discussion_page_deleted?. I don't normally check a UP before I post a message on their UT, but you are different because
I wasn't sure how best to find you but since my first impression of you was that of a straightforward person I started typing in the search box User:Rubbish, and to my delight I got an autocomplete and instantly clicked on your User-page (UP). I have not quite yet figured out when autocomplete helps and when it does not. I hope I am making sense?
Back to your UP I see that you have been here much longer than me, that you belong to the demographic-group most abundant on wmf-wikis unlike me, and that you started out as recent change patroller. I already knew that you are interested in wq:Categories.
Anyway, I guess I do not need to welcome you to wikiquote :) and sorry about my garbled message, Ottawahitech (talk) 16:04, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ottawahitech, sorry I must have missed this. Which demographic do you mean? My username has changed also, I decided to use my real name. Alextejthompson (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 17:10, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
- HI Alextejthompson,
- I apologize. I got pinged to this page a while ago, but was busy elsewhere and forgot. I have to read what I wrote here a couple of months ago, it is TLDR, again my apologies, I have a memory the size of a flee, and my patience sometimes is even smaller. Ottawahitech (talk) 16:07, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
Hi Ottawahitech, no worries. Alextejthompson (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 17:37, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
I believe you have shown interest in or edited some Elvis Presley related pages. You may be interested in the discussion at Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Elvis Presley quote forks, and may even wish to participate or add comment(s). Thankyou -- User:Djm-leighpark(a)talk 08:05, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
