== Edit conflicts == |
|||
It took me about 6 tries to get a notice in without an edit conflict. This is not the right way to implement a queue. Of course, mediawiki should try to apply the diff which the submit represents to the modified page; but anyway it would also be possible to direct users to an add section link. |

I think this is important: many people won't try so hard. —[[User:Jemmy Button|Jemmy]]<sub>[[User Talk:Jemmy Button|t]][[Special:Contributions/Jemmy Button|c]]</sub> 19:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC) |

:::I'm not convinced that the AIV should be the page used to give general instruction to newcomers to Wikipedia. By the time most editors have sussed out how to report vandals round here, they are usually pretty au fait with Wikipedia and it's usage.

::::Eh, we're talking about technical advice about how to use this page, not "general instruction to newcomers." And I notice that as a matter of fact the '+' tab is not used (nobody in the current history of 50 used it), and indeed the "bot-reported" and "user-reported" sectioning discourages it. —[[User:Jemmy Button|Jemmy]]<sub>[[User Talk:Jemmy Button|t]][[Special:Contributions/Jemmy Button|c]]</sub> 01:25, 24 December 2007 (UTC) |

== Help with anonyuser == |
|||
There is [what appears to be] one user repeatedly vandalizing the page [[Cliff Hangers]] by adding to the image caption a descriptor of the contestant shown (first it was a "black contestant", then "male" then they change the "a" to a "one", and then changed it to "a contestant likely to vote for..." some candidate). The edit seems to come from a unique IP every few times. What can be done about this type of user/vandalism. One of the edits was made by a user who also vanadalized another page, but otherwise they have been restricted to this page, seemingly. thanks.

I {{diff|Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism|prev|179075666|added this user}} and mentioned "Image Vandalism." The request was declined because I used the wrong word and I meant to say "Repeated uploading of copyrighted material," which appears on [[WP:VAND]]. I was not sure if it was appropriate to add it directly back to the page, so I'm commenting here. Should this be relisted or listed on ANI (or not listed at all)? --'''<font color="red">[[User:Thinboy00|Thin]]</font><font color="green">[[User talk:Thinboy00|boy]]</font><font color="blue">[[Special:Contributions/Thinboy00|00]]</font>''' @76, i.e. 00:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC) |

:Mistake on my part, as I removed the request. I shouldn't have removed the request, and I apologise for it. I wasn't really sure of that particular part anyway. Sorry for any inconvenience there.

== [[User Talk:Xsyner]] == |

I've warned this user that it is against policy to remove block warnings and notices from his user talk page. He has repeatedly been removing these from his talk page. I gave him one official warning and eventually reported him at [[WP:AIAV]]. Nothing was done about it however. I've been told by several editors that doing what he was doing is against policy, but I can't seem to find the specific page it's on so I can backup my claim. Can anyone tell me if this is actually policy and if it is where to find it. Thanks. <font color="darkred">[[User:Timmeh|╦ﺇ₥₥€Ԋ]]</font><b>(</b><sup><font color="FF6600">[[User_talk:Timmeh|talk]]</font></sup><big><font color="blue">/</font></big><sub><font color="00FF00">[[Special:Contributions/Timmeh|contribs]]</font></sub><b>)</b> 02:51, 27 December 2007 (UTC) |

:Actually, removing warnings is allowed, and it's tacit acknowledgment. Block notices are another matter. Declined unblocks specifically say in the template not to remove them. I think leaving the block notices just makes administrative common sense, even if it's not required by code. —'''[[User:C.Fred|C.Fred]]''' ([[User_talk:C.Fred|talk]]) 04:44, 27 December 2007 (UTC) |

== Pizanob == |
|||
Pizanob has been vandalizing the article [[Empezar Desde Cero]], saying "Both singers [Yuridia and Shakira] would ultimately beat them out to number 1." That is vandalism. I already warned him.[[User:Empezardesdecero1718|Empezardesdecero1718]] ([[User talk:Empezardesdecero1718|talk]]) 05:30, 31 December 2007 (UTC) |
