Hi Ben Thanks for your note As you noted normally I don t go around doing that but the user in question has been gumming up the works with endless such requests often on stubs and substubs that s he has just created after a number of people have pleaded with the user to stop and after the Wikipedia Mentorship Committee has been offering help and guidance I ve been trying to be careful about not being overzealous and taking care not to remove legitimate requests I d have restored it but I see that you ve already taken care of it I will try to be even more careful in the future crossposted to Ben w s talk page Thanks again
