I don't appreciate my good faith edits [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User:Aquafish&curid=7097412&diff=79561574&oldid=77100970 to be labeled as vandalism]. Thanks. [[User:Makemi|Mak]] <font color="green">[[User_talk:Makemi|(talk)]]</font> 01:12, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

::Yeah, just "rv" would probably be better if what you're reverting isn't vandalism. And if it's not vandalism, it's nice to give a reason you're reverting, such as "rv. POV" or "rv. unnecessary spelling change". [[User:Makemi|Mak]] <font color="green">[[User_talk:Makemi|(talk)]]</font> 01:59, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

== Welcome! ==

Hello, {{BASEPAGENAME}}, and [[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]] to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]! Please [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your name]] on talk pages using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out [[Wikipedia:Questions]], ask me on my talk page, or place <code><nowiki>{{helpme}}</nowiki></code> on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!&nbsp; [[User:Mangojuice|Mango]][[Special:Contributions/Mangojuice|<font color="orange">'''juice'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Mangojuice|talk]]</sup> 03:50, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

:The [[WP:3RR|3RR]] or "three-revert rule" is a rule that says you must not revert any page more than 3 times in any 24-hour period. Not that reverting up to 3 times is good! The point is that reversion is a kind of edit warring that makes things worse: the only real point to it is to declare that you disagree with the entirety of the change. Once you've done it once, the other person should know you object, and the time has come to start discussing the issue. As for featured and good articles, check out [[WP:WIAFA|What is a Featured article?]] and [[WP:WIAGA|What is a Good article?]]. Articles with those statuses are recognized as especially good encyclopedia articles. And BTW, I find that part of the project very rewarding. :) [[User:Mangojuice|Mango]][[Special:Contributions/Mangojuice|<font color="orange">'''juice'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Mangojuice|talk]]</sup> 14:56, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

::Don't worry about the questions. If I don't respond quickly, you can also use the <nowiki>{{helpme}}</nowiki> tag to ask questions. You can't block vandals because only admins can block users. Be careful though: remember that "vandalism" is worse than just edits you don't agree with (see [[WP:VAN]]). As for the messages bar, I couldn't say. Sometimes people make slight edits to their comments on your talk page, and this looks like a new message. And sometimes if you open up multiple windows at once, the "new message" thing will show on all of them, and when you check the message, they don't go away. Other than that, no idea. [[User:Mangojuice|Mango]][[Special:Contributions/Mangojuice|<font color="orange">'''juice'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Mangojuice|talk]]</sup> 01:22, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

:::Again, you can't delete pages. If you want a redirect deleted, it's best to list it at [[WP:RFD]]. [[User:Mangojuice|Mango]][[Special:Contributions/Mangojuice|<font color="orange">'''juice'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Mangojuice|talk]]</sup> 20:02, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

How do I semi-protect a page like the banners I've seen on other protected pages? <font color="aqua">[[User:Aquafish|Aqua]]</font><font color="green">[[User:Aquafish|fish]]</font> <small>[[User talk:Aquafish|<font color="purple">talk</font></small>]] 03:06, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

:You'd need to be an admin to do that. If not, you can ask an admin to do it for you by going to the [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard|admin noticeboard]].

== Response to your question ==

No, images are excluded from categories. You can check out [[WP:CAT]] for more information. Cheers! -- [[User:Merope|Merope]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Merope|Talk]]</sup></small> 02:16, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
:I am entirely wrong! Sorry about that; there are cats for images--it's just that images are excluded from cats that contain articles. -- [[User:Merope|Merope]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Merope|Talk]]</sup></small> 02:29, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
::Since it's my fault, I'll revert your edits. (It's easy for me to do it since I'm an admin.) Again, I'm really sorry about this! -- [[User:Merope|Merope]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Merope|Talk]]</sup></small> 02:32, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
:::Done. It's easier because I can look at all your contributions and a button appears next to each line that says "rollback". By clicking it, it undoes your last edit instantly. It's extremely helpful for fighting vandalism. -- [[User:Merope|Merope]] <small><sup>[[User talk:Merope|Talk]]</sup></small> 02:35, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

== Welcome to Esperanza! ==

<div style="padding: 5px; background: #EEFFEE; border: 2px solid #CCFFCC;">
[[Image:Esperanza-short.PNG|right]]
Welcome, Aquafish, to [[Wikipedia:Esperanza|Esperanza]]! As you might know, all the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members|Esperanzians]] share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Charter|Charter]], the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/So you've joined Esperanza...|guide to what to do now]] or you may be interested in some of our [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Programs|programs]]. A quite important program is [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Stressbusters|Stressbusters]], which seeks to support [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Alerts|editors who have encountered any stress]] from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Calendar|calendar]] of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Proposals|Esperanza/Proposals]].

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Natalya by [[Special:Emailuser/Natalya|email]] or [[User talk:Natalya|talk page]]. Consider introducing yourself at the [[Wikipedia talk:Esperanza|Esperanza talk page]]! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, [irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-esperanza #wikipedia-esperanza] (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an [[Wikipedia:IRC tutorial|IRC tutorial]]. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

</div>

I'd also like to extend to you a warm welcome. I hope you enjoy the community, and please don't hesitate to come to me with any questions. -- [[User: Cielomobile|Ci]][[User:Cielomobile/Esperanza|<font color="green">e</font>]][[user:Cielomobile|lomobile]] <sup>[[User talk:Cielomobile|minor7]][[Special:Contributions/Cielomobile|♭5]]</sup> 04:03, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

== your edit pattern ==

I take it from your edit pattern, you are trying to quickly hit all of the major criteria for Admin status and then make another run at AFD (like you tried with your socks here and on the simple Wikipedia).

I think I should make it clear here at this junction that I'll do everything I am able to prevent such an occurance. --[[User:Charlesknight|Charlesknight]] 16:57, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

== Peer review help ==

Thanks for your help with the peer review, but the problem isn't quite fixed. The link to the old peer review (the one where the linked word is "archived") links to the newly posted peer review, and the old one is now gone. Any ideas?--[[User:Dark Kubrick|Dark Kubrick]] 20:40, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

But aren't both peer reviews supposed to be linked on the article's talk page? The talk page now only has the link to the current peer review, which it says is "archived". To get to the old peer review, you would have to type in that whole name.--[[User:Dark Kubrick|Dark Kubrick]] 21:12, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Very frustrating those tricky links are.--[[User:Dark Kubrick|Dark Kubrick]] 21:27, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

== Indefinitely blocked ==

It's quite obvious that you're a sockpuppet of ForestH2 et al., and after continued disruption [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Image:Wayfarerbosch.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=80121779], similar edit patterns [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Little_Einsteins&diff=prev&oldid=79930109] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Kpjas&diff=prev&oldid=79575189] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:72.134.40.171&diff=prev&oldid=79575826] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User:David.Mestel/Arbitration_report/09.10.06&diff=prev&oldid=80210761], and general exhaustion of patience, I have indefinitely blocked you again. [[User:Ral315|Ral315]] ([[User talk:Ral315|talk]]) 21:27, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

1 2, and 5 are not against me. I am rather suprised you decided to block me. I am HIS brother. What don't you understand? I am allowed to comment on Kpjas' talkpage, allowed to vote delete in Little Einstiens, allowed to change grammer in the Arbitration report for David.Mestel, and I was doing the correct thing in #1. I will request unblock. <font color="aqua">[[User:Aquafish|Aqua]]</font><font color="green">[[User:Aquafish|fish]]</font> <small>[[User talk:Aquafish|<font color="purple">talk</font></small>]] 21:29, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

{{unblock|Please see my above comment, a reply to Ral315. I am tired of being blocked. I am ForestH2's brother. I am editing politican articles. Please see the help desk for #1. I do not have the same interests. Nethier disruption. What happend to the promise I had with Mangojuice. No editing the Signpost? I've kept that, I've edited just politican articles. And your also saying I can't vote delete in a wikiproject. Totally absurd. Would someone report this to Mangojuice? And unblock me?}}

: I have asked Mangojuice to review this one. <b>[[User Talk:JzG|Guy]]</b> 21:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)


''I've edited just politican articles.'' - why do you lie? Is that all you've edited? No Spongebob articles in there? (Note to any admin looking at this unblock request): Forrest set up a bent Wikiproject with a number of his socks. --[[User:Charlesknight|Charlesknight]] 21:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

:True, I edited some SpongeBob articles in there such as [[The Best Day Ever]]. I was random aritcling and found that article. Even if it was SpongeBob I decided that it should be deleted and I nominated it for deletion. I am not a member of the SBSP Wikiproject nethier am I editing SpongeBob SquarePants articles besides Best Day Ever and Bummer Vacation. For notice, more thanhalf of my edits are to politican articles and US Congress articles. Mangojuice can you look at my unblock request where I am in detail? Also, can I see a response to the earlier response I gave you? <font color="aqua">[[User:Aquafish|Aqua]]</font><font color="green">[[User:Aquafish|fish]]</font> <small>[[User talk:Aquafish|<font color="purple">talk</font></small>]] 21:54, 8 October 2006 (UTC)


'''I am not a member of the SBSP Wikiproject'''

So what's all [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Wikiproject_SpongeBob_SquarePants&diff=next&oldid=80078035 this] about? You are not a member but are just editing project pages?


'''neither am I editing SpongeBob SquarePants articles besides Best Day Ever and Bummer Vacation.'''

So what's [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:SpongeBob_episode&diff=80120812&oldid=80120082 this],and [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Selling_Out_%28SpongeBob_SquarePants_episode%29&diff=prev&oldid=80082835 this], [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wigstruck&diff=prev&oldid=80082208 what about this?] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=List_of_SpongeBob_SquarePants_episodes&diff=prev&oldid=80085355 this?]

:::: Forest told me what subjects he edited here. SpongeBob, Drake & Josh, Little Einstiens....he said he was blocked by Ral315 and Makemi for using sockpuppets and lying. He's in Michigan. I can page him. Would you like that? Do you have something you want to say? I was advised that ForestH2 was Sugarpine; so I was confused for a momment who Forest was.

I am self admitting this: [[User:VanM|VanM]] is indeed a sockpuppet of ForestH2 according to a list Forest keeps; and [[User:Foxearth|Foxearth]] is one too. I suggest you block them.

The first follows the pattern, the second seems to an attempt to get (what appears) to be - an editor in good standing banning (well what would you know - Forrest's socks fell out with the guy). Well I'm off to bed I think. --[[User:Charlesknight|Charlesknight]] 23:13, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean well what would you know? If it is what I think it's your not AGF or it's not WP:CIVIL.

:: Let me clarify for any admin considering an unblock - [[User:VanM|VanM]] does fit the pattern of Forrest socks but it's a basically inactive one, so I guess that's offered up as a chip to say "what a good boy I am". The second one [[User:Foxearth|Foxearth]] has a pattern of interaction that is similar to many who have interacted with Forrest or his socks. That is to say Forrest makes first contact and then [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Foxearth&diff=next&oldid=63335153 one] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Foxearth&diff=next&oldid=68313190 of] his socks turns up to support something that forresth2 has said or to commit [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Foxearth&diff=next&oldid=69239178 vandalism]. I see nothing here but an attempt by Forrest to settle a grudge because he thinks the game is up with this sock. It's just more cynical gameplaying from forresth2. --[[User:Charlesknight|Charlesknight]] 09:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
