Re: Ol' 81...

Given that one of his template edits[1] had Adam Mitchell back as companion for much of season 4, I'd just like to know where he's getting his ideas from. I can understand why some people have fooled themselves into thinking Eccleston could be back for Christmas, but some of his contributions were just bizarre. --Mark H Wilkinson ^{(t, c)} 06:35, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Google Talk

I'm going to purposely stay away from it until my connexion gets better or is fixed to avoid frustration on my, your, and others' parts. :( I'll still be here when it's up though. :) — $PЯIПGrαgђ 01:06, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL! I give up—oh by the way my connexion is more stable in the mornings (my mornings; about 5 to 9 your time) so I may be on at least then. — $PЯIПGrαgђ 17:38, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ROTFLOL

I just saw your message about staying away from the internet to avoid Harry Potter spoilers, and I was just about to put something like that on my own page!! My schedule is almost getting back to normal--another week of weirdness and then I'll be able to get back to wikiwork....but dammit, there's that little issue of finding out the ending before I get a chance to read it. I can't count how many football matches I've accidentally wrecked for myself (here in the States we can't watch the Prem live unless we get up at 5 AM--nooo thank you) by absentmindedly logging on to check my email and there in the headlines box is the score of the match I was eagerly anticipating. Bloody depressing really, takes all the fun out of it. Anyway, enjoy reading the book on your own schedule sans spoilers. ;-) I'm off to go indulge my Doctor Who addiction some more! K. Lásztocska 03:53, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, are we addicted to all the same shows, or what? I remember exactly which Scrubs episode you mean. ;-) As for the Doctor, here Stateside we've just seen "The Shakespeare Code" (loved it!!). I'm having a hard time getting used to Martha--I like her and all, I just miss Rose. "Doomsday" was THE saddest episode of anything I've ever seen. I'm just glad the Tenth Doctor is sticking around for a while (he's still in the fourth series isn't he?), I'm rather madly in love with him. He's starting to show such a dark side in this series though, remember that look of cold fury on his face when he killed the empress of Rachnoss in the Christmas episode?! OK....wow, I'm such a geek. Enjoy your break and I'll enjoy mine--and starting July 21, NO internet until we finish the book! Make a solemn vow! K. Lásztocska 16:03, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for reverting that vandalism on my page that was my 3rd time being vandalised.Sam ov the blue sand 01:53, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File:Cat dude.jpeg

I posted the link to the author of the image, I posted a link to the CC 3.0 tag that appears on the bottom of each page of icanhascheezburger.com (site this was posted on) and yet it is again deleted, this time with no warning. What exactly do I have to do to satisfy the Wiki Law Staff? - NeutralHomer ^T:C 02:31, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ADMINCOACH

I noticed that you were free as a coach, even though you are on a wikibreak. When you finish your break, I was wondering if you would consider taking me on as a student. ffm 15:44, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

/b/

Aye, I've been there. But LUE and LUELinks have been so notorious and are so damn numerous I find the to be the single most destructive for in the internet. But cheers :) 190.73.209.148 19:48, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

but WHY?

How come you have the right to decide whether my article is submitted or not? I spent a lot of time making it and you cant find much more then what i did i put lots of links and stuff. BUT NOOOO. thanks a lot. pfftt Charlielovesmcr 04:37, July 20, 2007 (UTC)

Could you please discuss any alterations to my proposed text on the talk page rather than delete it.GordyB 16:38, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You did not reply to either my message here or on the talk page but you did continue to edit other Wiki pages. If you think my edit is POV then please state why and what you would like changing rather than deleting my edit. If you won't communicate with me and continue to delete without a valid reason then I will have to keep reverting your edits.GordyB 23:19, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I took that off AIV without blocking because, while it was posted in an improper manner, simply posting plot spoilers isn't vandalism. More importantly, he hadn't been warned (I will give him a simple test1). Daniel Case 17:20, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Potter spoiler = block?

We're supposed to block becuase of one unwarned act of vandalism that may or may not be a remotely accurate spoiler of a children's book? Just warn the editor...if it contines, it may warrant a block. — Scientizzle 17:22, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see (from the comment above), that I wasn't the only one wondering about this. Where, exactly, is it stated that anyone posting spoilers to the new Harry Potter book is a vandal to be blocked on sight without a single warning? Consider that once the book is released the article will as a matter of fact have a plot summary per WP:NOVEL. As it is, until the book is released, plot summary details should be removed because they can't be verified. But those who post them should not be blocked for any reason other than the usual ones. Daniel Case 17:27, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. It's frankly no worse than (and should be treated as) the addition of your standard nonsense/test. If it doesn't stop following proper warnings, then a block may be necessary. — Scientizzle 17:30, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, now I understand per your explanation here. But you should have made that clear when putting it on AIV (And maybe upgrading the page to full protection might be in order soon). Daniel Case 18:01, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request for coaching

Hello Scepter, I have put in a inquiry for Admin coaching and saw your name of the list of coaches with a nice big "none" next to it. i know you'll be gone for a week or so but I figured I'l leave this for you when you get back. Feel free to respond on here if you want, I'll watch your page-keep the conversation together. If you can/want to do it, thanks! -^Violask8₁₉₇₆ 01:16, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Second Battle of Hogwarts

I noticed an edit of yours to the dab page for this which I suspect means you are going to have problems with my attempts to change all references to this back to canon - please check out the various talk pages and voice any concerns you have. My intention is to pull it back to being called "The Battle of Hogwarts" as it is called in the DH which I feel is necessary to be able to stop fancruft and OR add-ons. Only by sticking precisely to what is in the book will the article remain tight and relevant. Sophia 16:27, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Potter redux

Yeah, I spent all yesterday reading it...damn good story all in all. Have to say I was NOT expecting the doe to be Snape's Patronus...actually I wasn't expecting any of those revelations about Snape except I had an inkling of the conspiracy between him and Dumbledore. I shouldn't be revealing plot twists in public, should I?!?! K. Lásztocska 18:14, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've met Anonimu...

...you will never know peace again. Thanks for trying to defend me though, but all it managed to accomplish was getting you labelled a "blind supporter". I'm already "Biruitorul's groupie", which is a lame nickname if I've ever had one--I was hoping for something like "the traitorous Romanian-loving Hungarian ultranationalist controlled from the Beyond by the demonic hands of Franz Liszt."

On a more fun topic, have YOU got any idea what Spring's HP anagram turns out to be? I'm really horrible at that kind of stuff. K. Lásztocska 20:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're an admin, aren't you? Any ideas what on earth should be done about this guy? K. Lásztocska ^{Review me?} 23:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Right....knew that. See, THIS is why I keep thinking you're an admin--you know all the rules, guidelines and codes of conduct (and follow them!) better than three of me. Anonimu just got blocked for a week, FYI. K. Lásztocska ^{Review me?} 16:30, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wait, you were an admin but aren't anymore? What happened? K. Lásztocska ^{Review me?} 16:33, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh, wow. I'm not sure yet whether I should run for admin--I'm probably too moody and hot-headed, not to mention controversial and (lately) unproductive...but I still kind of want to try...K. Lásztocska ^{Review me?} 16:37, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're fine. People worse than you (I wish to dear God I could mention a name) have succeeded. ;) — $PЯINGεrαgђ 04:04, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
