:I am assuming you are joking :-) about the page created by a spammer. If you are in fact serious, the reasons it was deleted: it was created by a spammer, who posted links to external sites, and was not labeled as an "essay" and had no place in the main space. If you do think we need an essay on wedding planning, you can create one (without external spam links) and label it as an essay. However I do think there are many more important articles that people can spend their time creating. Thanks, [[User:Taj|Taj]] 13:57, 15 December 2012 (EST)

==Dead-end Page Help==
[[User:Taj|Taj]], I posted this on [[User_talk:Aschlafly]] but wanted to post it here for you too...
Sorry for the delay, I just saw your offer. I don't have any special process in place, I just go to the list '''(edit console->special pages->Dead-end pages or [http://conservapedia.com/Special:DeadendPages Here] if you prefer a direct route)''' and click on the first option that I can edit and add some internal links to existing pages. Any help you (or anyone else) wants to offer would be more than appreciated. Maybe you could start at the back end of the list and work your way forward so we meet in the middle? I'm open to any suggestions you might have. Thanks, [[User:Fnarrow|Fnarrow]] 16:18, 17 April 2013 (EDT)
:Hi again, it looks like you've done a lot of work there already, but let me know if you would still like assistance. Thanks, [[User:Taj|Taj]] 18:29, 21 April 2013 (EDT)
I'd like magical protection from the block that will inevitably be coming my way for opposing [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] and [[User:Karajou|Karajou]]... is that something you can make happen? lol. That block is going to greatly decrease my ability to remove Dead-end pages. Carry on my legacy after I'm gone! [[User:Fnarrow|Fnarrow]] 22:01, 21 April 2013 (EDT)
::Well, I don't have a magic wand to wave and make everything right for everyone in the world, I sure wish I did. :-) I don't think you will be blocked for stating a difference of opinion, as long as you remain respectful. Personally, I tend to avoid getting involved in conflicts between editors, simply because that is the nature of a wiki, or any online forum. There are going to be people who disagree with each other. There are going to be people who feel they have been treated unfairly, and they may have been in some cases, there are going to be hurt feelings, anger, annoyance... this will happen. But it happens so often and to such an extent that I just don't feel that I can spend what little time I have available for online activities in trying to referee or participate in the inevitable conflicts that arise between people. It just happens too often, and it's useless to get involved. Even when it happens to me, I tend to just say oh well, time to move on. This is an attitude change I've had from several years ago, which has come about gradually. I used to be more passionate about things, but these days I've come to the realization that it really doesn't matter all that much. I like you and I do feel that you have been helpful to the project and would like to see you stay and contribute some more. So I hope you can resolve whatever issues you've been experiencing. Take Care, [[User:Taj|Taj]] 02:51, 22 April 2013 (EDT)
