then who is the one who decides what information is right and what information is wrong. Can the people that write this info prove without a shadow of a doubt that their information is correct? If I'm not the only one who feels this way then there must be a method to my madness. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.174.115 (talk) 03:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

so if i were to create a page called kosovo is serbia, but maintain a neutral stance and give plenty of sources to back it up, would the page still stand? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.174.115 (talk) 03:32, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Query on block

Did you really levy an indef block on Deevee337 (talk · contribs)? That seams awfully harsh considering this editor never received a single warning. --Kralizec! (talk) 04:52, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, indef blocking without a warning definitely isn't policy. However, I highly doubt the said user would have ever done anything constructive. The vandalism was very blatant, and clearly in bad faith. Landon1980 (talk) 05:03, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
They didn't edit after the warning though. Only because they were blocked in my opinion. Landon1980 (talk) 05:09, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I would be perfectly fine with the block if the editor had received even a single level-4im warning. However the fact is that this editor got absolutely nothing from the community except an after-the-fact warning that was immediately followed by a block notice. Where is the AGF in that? --Kralizec! (talk) 05:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • True, however as AGF says, "Unless there is strong evidence to the contrary, assume that people who work on the project are trying to help it, not hurt it.". I'd say that their contributions indicate that they had no intention of contributing constructively. Assume good faith unless there's evidence to the contrary. I am all for assuming good faith, even stretching it at times, but this seems a clear circumstance of a vandal only account. Steve Crossin (talk) (contact page) 05:25, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just a note: I am sorry for bowing out of this, but I have to be at work in 6 and a half hours, so I really need to get some sleep. Kralizec!, if you really want to unblock him, I will not consider it wheel warring, but all of the vandalisms the user makes if/when he is unblocked will be on your head. J.delanoygabsadds 05:35, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
When it comes to fellow admins, I generally follow a 0RR policy, so your invitation to bring the consequences of an unblock upon "my own head" are quite unnecessary. From my perspective, this looks like an out-of-process block because the editor got zero warnings before being indefinitely blocked. WP:BLOCK states that "before a block is imposed, efforts should be made to educate the user about our policies and guidelines, and to warn them when their behaviour conflicts with our policies and guidelines" ... but that did not happen here. --Kralizec! (talk) 06:30, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the apology note, I very much appreciate it. This just re-confirms exactly what I said about you in your RfA, and I really wish that more admins could do what you did and step back to re-assess the situation rather than get defensive and emotionally involved. I would also like to apologize if you felt I was harping on you too much, and in retrospect I recognize that I should have issued this editor a {{uw-vandalism4im}} warning rather than the level one warning I gave. As I said to Landon1980 on my talk page [1], I honestly believe that the AIV process works very smoothly and without unnecessary drama when we are all operating on the same wavelength. In the case of Deevee337, what is done is done and I do not feel it is worth going back to change the block. While I will not presume to interpret the official blocking policy for you, I can say that I am always extremely hesitant to block editors who have not been sufficiently warned. Perhaps I was spoiled by your gazillions of well executed AIV reports, but blocking is serious and all AIV reports should be held up to the same high standard. --Kralizec! (talk) 18:35, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Do not get me wrong, I block certain sock masters on sight, and likewise I do not hesitate to block spammers or editors on a heavy vandalism spree. However I always make sure to dot my i's and cross my t's for everything else. If vandal fighters are correctly following policy, editors may be blocked in as little as four or five vandalism edits (or two if they are extremely blatant), so the potential gain of doing an early but out-of-process block is not worth the pain (drama and endless whinging on AN/I) if the vandal were to request an unblock on procedural grounds. (Sorry my replies are coming so long after yours ... I am at work and cannot give wiki my undivided attention.) --Kralizec! (talk) 18:53, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I'm late, but congratulations on your successful RfA! I'm pleased to have been a part of it. Cosmic Latte (talk) 19:06, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Help

Hi J.: Some children are running wild this evening. If you're around, please check the vandalism noticeboard. Thanks, JNW (talk) 05:44, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I saw that you had been active recently, so I was hoping you were still checking in. Cheers, JNW (talk) 05:48, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

SF3 needs to ask you something!!

Hello, J. I just logged into Huggle and was on it for less than 5 minutes until it encountered that annoying pop-up window with options like "Send Error Report" and "Don't Send". I closed out, and then tried to log back in, but it says this: "Huggle is not enabled for your account, check configuration subpage." (And I've had this program for about three weeks) What does that mean? If you could look at my Huggle.css, can you tell me what my problem is? I've decided to ask this on your talk page because you're the user who helped me get Huggle. Thanks, SchfiftyThree 16:34, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, J.delanoy. You have new messages at SchfiftyThree's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Hello... I was wondering if you could help...?

Hi. I think someone has hacked into my wi-fi. Anyway, occasionally I make anonymous edit's to wikipedia. I just ent to do one of those now but my account was blocked. I also just noted activity on my wi-fi other than me. I was wondering if you could unblock my I.P. now i've changed my WEP key. (To note, i made it WPA so it cant be hacked =) Thanks Mczack26 (talk) 16:51, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AIV

Just wanted to say it's nice to check my watchlist and find an AIV edit summary that says, "...blocked 1 day by J.delanoy".

Hell yeah. Kafziel Complaint Department 20:18, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. It's still a bit surreal for me. I look at my watchlist and I'm like, "Holy crap, those bots are talking about me!!!" J.delanoygabsadds 20:20, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My thanks!

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
For your assistance in blockin 'dem vandals, I award you this barnstar. I appreciate a fast-reflexed admin. Thanks again. --eric (mailbox) 23:28, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Again

Perhaps you can help me out. I might have a potential move-vandalism and general vandalism problem. BeerBelly82, TitleRanch903, and BuffaloSam. The latter of the three left Wikipedia in December of 07 and came back yesterday. The others appear to be new accounts.

BeerBelly82 moved the Johnstown/Altoona Television Market template to Template:Johnstown/Altoona/State College TV, though I can find nothing to show "State College" is part of the official Nielsen "name" for that market. All of the pages that linked to the old template were then changed. TitleRanch903 appears to be following in this changing of old templates.

BuffaloSam has moved two radio market templates to "names" that don't appear to match the official Arbitron "name". This user also changed all of the pages that linked to the old template.

To me, this seems like move-vandalism and general vandalism. I could be wrong, but as Kubigula and Firsfron are out (the admins I bring stuff like this to), I bring it to your attention. Thanks...NeutralHomer T:C 01:35, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't, as I am not really sure what to ask. That's why I normally just let Kubigula or Firsfron handle these things (they appear to be off for the weekend). Do you have any ideas on what I should ask? Thanks :)....NeutralHomer T:C 03:53, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No worries :) I ask Kubigula when he comes back and see what he thinks. Sometimes these edits are just good-faith goofs, sometimes not. That's why I ask an admin.
I will go think another tough question for ya (kidding!). Have a Great Weekend...NeutralHomer T:C 04:19, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Your subapges

Yes I would like that because my userpage has been vandalized before and I don't really want that to happen again. Thank you. Hmrox (talk) 03:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Edit war taking place, can you do something?

Greetings, I just want to inform you that an edit war is currently taking place in the article: List of hollows in bleach; could you please step in )and solve this issue once and for all? Please act quickly, I am one of the peolpe involved in the edit war; please review our statements and help us to medite this situation. Thank you Cristian Cappiello (talk) 05:22, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe this would be more appropriate at Requests for Page Protection? IceUnshattered (talk) 17:27, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Minjo brotherhood

I don't think either revision is any good on that page. check the whole page, it is a total mess. Might not be worth the bother to revert. Let's put it this way: if the IP were going from (rather than to) the edit they keep changing it too, we would probably be reverting that as blatant nonsense.  :) Protonk (talk) 03:08, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

I'm back from wikibreak. Delighted it all went well. Enjoy mopping. --Dweller (talk) 09:34, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for removing the vandalism from my page

Thanks for cleaning up the vandalism on my user page. Ajh16 (talk) 15:28, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was just asking something

I was just asking him something. Why did you treat it as personal attack?

Actually, your post here and there was a personal attack. Saying that users have no life and only use a "gay tool" is a personal attack. Erik the Red 2 (AVE·CAESAR) 15:42, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Small furry animals

When dropping by on your user page after your block of Mister friendly i noticed an infobox on your main page that i would like to use on my own page (Hence the title of this subsection). Before simply copying and pasting it over, i would first like to ask if you have no objections on me doing so. In case it is, would you by any chance have a version around that does not contain an overload of HTML comments as vandalism protection? Of course its reversible, but well... :) Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 18:15, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heh, nope. If you want to demean yourself, by all means go ahead :-)
The non-html-commented version is (ironically) included in an html comment in this message. You may want to replace or remove the diffs I linked to.
Feel free to stealborrow anything you want from my userpage in the future without asking... Cheers! J.delanoygabsadds 18:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for saving me from having to invest valuable hours of time to uncomment that box.
As for demeaning myself, well, don't they say that knowing oneself is the basis of all wisdom? No matter that, i changed the text a little notch, due to the much more pressing quote that says: "its better to shut up and make them think you are a fool, then to speak and remove all doubt". Sillyness aside, the infobox its just to fitting of what im doing (Both in old and new form) for me to just walk by :) Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 18:45, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't think...

That just because you are an admin now, that you can just beat me to the reverts and all that jazz. I demand that you stop! ;0 KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 18:16, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aw, the turtle page is gone! I even looked up the youtube video that was part of the campaign :) Yeah, it was a crappy page, but it made me smile. For me, being non-american, wikipedia is an important source to understanding jokes in family guy; this "chicken, turkey" page might have elucidated an obscure joke. Oh well.

Advice on "spam"

You recently deleted an article I posted on Salient Media. I read the section on Blatant advertising and don't understand how the article met that criteria. It's written in a neutral tone. It doesn't link to anything. It isn't an attempt to sell anything. Everything is factual. What can I change to have an article about Salient media on the wikipedia?

Thanks for your help, Erik —Preceding unsigned comment added by SalientMadsky (talkcontribs) 20:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jimmy Carter page

Please explain why you undid all of my content additions, enhanced references, and increased organization of the Jimmy Carter article. I am a journalist who has covered the Carters for several years. I believe the post-presidency section of the article could stand to be condensed, reorganized and better referenced. I was attempting to do that. None of my contributions were biased or vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ddwyer (talkcontribs) 20:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did reload the page and your changes were not undone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ddwyer (talkcontribs) 20:48, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks!

Thank you...

...for participating in my RfA, which closed with 119 in support, 4 neutral and 5 opposes. I'm honestly overwhelmed at the level of support that I've received from the community, and will do my best to maintain the trust placed in me. I 'm also thankful to those who opposed or expressed a neutral position, for providing clear rationales and superb feedback for me to build on. I've set up a space for you to provide any further feedback or thoughts, should you feel inclined to. However you voted, thanks for taking the time out to contribute to the process, it's much appreciated. Kind regards, Gazimoff 21:31, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for responding on my behalf. It is unfortunate that dynamic IPs can confuse some users. Let's hope s/he creates an account. κaτaʟavenoTC 01:56, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template vandalism

Thanks for helping undo the vandalism at the John McCain article. Can we also protect the images? And, is protecting the images something that would be done at Wikipedia, or at Commons, or at both?

Incidentally, semi-protection is a definite improvement, but we may need full protection for both templates as well as images, by the time the election rolls around.Ferrylodge (talk) 02:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your message

This HTTP proxy can be used by changing your web browser settings. For Firefox, go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Settings > Manual proxy configuration > Enter "170.210.215.253" next to "HTTP Proxy" and "3128" next to "Port" and save settings. If you can browse the net, you've got an open proxy. You can see your IP using Special:Mytalk. There should probably be a tutorial on this somewhere. Spellcast (talk) 04:15, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah your method has too many steps, so just stick to the one browser you prefer most. You don't have to use the IP to leave a block notice. If you can load one page, go ahead and block it. The most common ports I find are 80, 3128, 8080, and 8000. If you're determining what port an IP from the WP:OPD list is using, try googling the IP first. The easiest ones to test in that list are the "open proxy" types. The "exit server" and "anonymizer" IPs are harder to deal with. Spellcast (talk) 16:39, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, and it's a good idea to give the site in the block log in case the IP requests an unblock. Spellcast (talk) 16:14, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proxy tagging

Hi J.delanoy. I'll just mention this, especially if you are making the IP's last edit, it really helps to note (I think preferably in the block log) how the proxy is accessible so that it can be checked in the future. We get a lot of unblock requests from open proxies, and it helps people dealing with the unblock request if they know what to check. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:43, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

...Interstate 80 in California, and U.S. Route 101 in California

I have no idea what's up with those fights either. You can ask somebody to take a look at it by WP:ANI. Splat5572 (talk · contribs) is the one who continues to fight over, when we say not to have Santa Ana, Golden State, Hollywood, Ventura, East/Bayshore Freeways on he exit list on I-5, I-80, and US 101. I'm tired of dealing with fights too. Splat5572 is soooo selfish, he doesn't care what other people thinks but himself.--Freewayguy Call? Fish 20:10, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm testing!

Hi. I'm about to test rollback, because I'm curious what the edit summary says, but I can't do it in my own talk space because (I think) it would rollback too far, or maybe it wouldn't, but I'm afraid it would, so I'm going to leave a message here, and then I'm going to take it away! And then I'm going to look at the edit summary. So, that's what I'm up to. Hope all is well with you. :D --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:00, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Test is done. It was kind of unexciting, actually. :/ I can see the point about it being polite to leave an honest to gosh edit summary when undoing somebody else's edits, but given the aura of grave severity around misuse of rollback, I kind of wondered if it was going to say, "U SUCK! I IZ REPORTING U!" It didn't. So...anticlimactic. Not that I 'm condoning reverting people without the politeness of an edit summary, mind you. Gosh, no. I'm all for civil! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:02, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I added about 100 Costa Rican politician stubs the other night in Category:Costa Rican politicians. I took for granted the stub category didn't exist and just added CostRica-bio-stub but it does.

Hey

How's it going? Last time I talked to you, you asked me if I could forward you Huggle ;)   jj137 (talk) 03:07, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know, it's crazy. The thing that caught my eye (in my watchlist) is, you're an admin now? Well, firstly congrats :) Unfortunately I guessed I missed your RFA in my random times of inactivity :(
I haven't really been up to much, really. I sometimes use Huggle, but like you said, it's a) a TON of people (pretty much everyone) use it now, b) less vandals, it seems like, and c) Huggle is about 5x a better tool than the "good old days". I guess it just makes it harder to actually find vandalism to revert... in March, every other click was vandalism and I could easily hit 20 edits per minute from reverting and warning. Or, maybe it's just me.   jj137 (talk) 03:24, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ha ha, that page is... odd. For one, I don't even see the point of putting private information somewhere where anyone can see it. (Well, it looks like they may be foreign and may not know things like that, but still...)
Yeah, it's surprising how much it comes in handy, mostly at random times. I guess you sort of get "used" to the buttons being there after a while. As for Huggle, well, I almost forgot that most of the vandalism came from schools (that would make sense). I'm guessing within a week or two it will increase. Also, if you want, you can delete one of my random user subpages and I'll "yell" at you. ;)   jj137 (talk) 04:09, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ha ha, that's pretty funny. As for the "deletion addiction", I wouldn't worry, I doubt there's an admin here that hasn't clicked the delete button on one of those pages at some point. :P (Yeah, it's that tempting...)   jj137 (talk) 04:19, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ha ha yeah, MediaWiki pages would cause SO much more havoc if you vandalized/deleted them than if you vandalized the Main Page or something like that. As long as you're careful not to get blocked (or I guess if you don't care, then go right ahead), admins have the most fun here on April Fools' Day ;)   jj137 (talk) 04:34, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, I personally like crush by elephant the best :P If you look through the history of any major MediaWiki page (besides ones like Common.js), about half of the edits were on April Fools' Days alone... wow, what a great community we are.   jj137 (talk) 04:41, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I guess not. It seems like this year most admins were either acting as silly as usual or trying to put a complete stop to it (I have no idea why, but I remember there was a long ANI thread about it, and 8 admins were blocked). It's just a joke, I don't see why people take it so seriously...   jj137 (talk) 04:49, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(unindent) Perfectly true. For some reason, it seemed like nothing was being tolerated (whether only admins or everyone could see them), but I just don't see why. You've got a good point, nothing is wrong with a little harmless fun.   jj137 (talk) 17:47, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Politician stubs

Hi thanks for that. Wow your edit count will be surpassing mine soon the amount of edits you;ve made mostly revertin vandalism in the last few days. Keep up the good work! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 09:45, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah it soon adds up I'm telling you. If you are making edits every few seconds for maintenance tasks, categorical changes, tagging or template work not to mention stubbing work for a period, and discussion of project progression it rockets my edit count. If I was your standard editor who just browses and makes a slight correction or two everynow and again my edit count would be less than 30,000 I;m sure. 30,000 of my edits alone however went towards stubbing french communes at the rate of 5 a minute.

Hey man, why you giving me this hassle? On that link the last revert before August 9 was August 6. What you trying to argue? That I've performed more than one revert to this guy? Yeah, I've performed scores. But 3RR last time I checked was calculated on a 24 hour period. I'd love for you to help out, but this isn't help.

Deacon continues to revert without a discussion on the talk page. This is unacceptable for any admin on wikipedia. I don't care if he disagrees, he has to talk it out with the editors on the talk page rather then just reverting at will. How am I supposed to work with someone who refuses to discuss his edits? Benkenobi18 (talk) 02:19, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yell at me all you want. I haven't reverted Deacon without posting on the talk page. You are right, the page should be List of Roman Catholic dioceses in the UK, which means that the Northern Ireland dioceses get moved into the cat. Thanks. Benkenobi18 (talk) 03:12, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Will you help?

Will you help a discussion to resolve the 9/11 problem?

14 days ago or more, I proposed SIX versions to address problems that others noted about the lead sentence. A 7th version was added to the talk page to incorporate the suggestions of an editor. Although there was little discussion, there was some. I added the best of the 7 versions. I am willing to talk, compromise, listen to suggestions. The other 2 editors are aggressive, will not discuss or compromise and simply falsely assert that their version is the consensus when it is not.

Template:Sports-videogame-stub please do not fully-protect templates without consensus or discussion. You've reverted a vandal to the last version by me, and now I cannot touch it? That is ridiculous. ~ JohnnyMrNinja 01:35, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I unprotected it, but I fail to see why you are so indignant that I protected it in the first place. You have not made any edits for more than a month, and my "reverting to the last version by you" means utterly nothing. All it means is that you were the last person to make an edit to the page before the vandal did. J.delanoygabsadds 01:37, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I was not aware that it is common practice to fully-protect things after one act of vandalism with no discussion or consensus. I am not an administrator, but I have maintained and edited most of the video game stub templates. Should I have to become an administrator to decide that a soccer icon is more useful than a golf one? I would not object to semi-protection, but a full-protection without very good reason is just saying that those who aren't sysops have no business touching it, and have nothing of value to add. ~ JohnnyMrNinja 01:48, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize if that cam across harshly, but please understand that I make many small edits to vital things all the time, and sometimes large edits. Many of those video game stub templates I actually created. It may not seem that way, but full-protection is offensive to a non sysop who does maintenance work. ~ JohnnyMrNinja 01:59, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, you were correct. I overreacted full-protecting it right out of hand. I'll semi-protect it, as it is used on a lot of pages. Sorry for the hassle. J.delanoygabsadds 02:02, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
And I'm sorry for hassling you. Countering vandalism isn't easy. I hadn't seen this edit, so overreacting is very understandable. To be honest, I would support semi-protecting the Template namespace, as these sorts of attacks are getting much more frequent. Thanks for switching it to semi-protect, and you have a nice day. ~ JohnnyMrNinja 02:46, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Consider retracting a warning against 75.85.82.78

This edit is not vandalism. The previous edit made (both were rolled back) could be considered misinformation and might be construed as disruptive but the second is clearly a capitalization error. I'm looking through this user's contributions and the record is truly troubling, so I assume that you placed the warning template in good faith, but it seems to have been placed in error. There is some discussion of the user's contributions here. Thanks for your time.

the above was added to the wrong admin. I guess I meant you when I wrote it. :) Part of it doesn't apply since you started the discussion of the user's contributions. No action needed unless you think it is worth it to retract the warning. Thanks. Protonk (talk) 23:51, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Range"tracking" IP ranges

Hi there!

I was just itching to ask an admin if there was a way to track IP ranges, as explained here. In fact, I asked one, but that user didn't know and told me to ask someone else may be.

Can there ever be such a tool that can track the edits of an entire IP range? Because, you know, admins can rangeblock extreme cases, but there really should be a way to keep a good hold of vandals within the range so you don't have to block innocent people on the way. It no longer appears to be effective to track IP contributions individually as they can change their IPs in such a short time if they know how to. I already experimented with that and found out that there was a way to do so (at least on Vista, I don't have a Mac or XP) ...however, while I was easily able to change my IP address, I noticed that it is simply impossible to change the IP range.

It's just a thought, but I really feel that it's gotten out of hand—if I were a vandal, being anonymous would have more benefits simply because you can evade blocks within seconds! Thanks and best of luck, ~ Troy (talk) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem ...that's a great start for my search. Actually, if you really want to know what I was up to, I was trying to program RegEx on JavaScript in User:Lupin/badwords (Aaargh!) to make sure that I could track vandalism more thoroughly with that tool. The most intruiging gadget that I recently found was this Cross-Wiki Global Contributions tool, which I came across today. You should try it out some time.

Hi again.

The moment you see that guy blubbering about how great his IPhone is, I suggest you give him a multipleIPs warning. As a matter of fact, recent IPs that I noticed changin' their addresses convinced me to look for a way to spot them.

...let me know if you see anything suspicious. Best Regards, ~ Troy (talk) 19:26, 18 August 2008 (UTC) :-)[reply]

Tuesday Wilkinson

Well done on keeping on-top of Tuesday Wilkinson. I wanted to suggest the user for a block. Is there any way for an average wikipedian to flag a user for a block to the administrators? i appreciate your help -- a relatively new wikipedian. I have your talk page on my watch.

Thanks

Thanks for reverting the stupidity on my talk page. Kids. Shrug. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:05, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar

The Half Barnstar
Uh-oh, looks like you only half-deleted this one. Next stop: Main Page! mboverload@ 00:59, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

why did u delete my page?

i hadnt finished it i simply need sleep- after all, i am human- so had to leave it at that stage. i do deserve a page but at the end of the day, other places will make sites about me and i'll make sure yours isnt one of them.

I'm not sure what you are refering to exactly but I can assure you that people who have to make their own Wikipedia page do not deserve one =) --mboverload@ 01:01, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-Vandalism Barnstar

The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
You've consistently been beating me to repairing vandalism. Instead of getting jealous ad you're Superman-like speed and your awesomeness, I've decided to give you a barnstar that you deserve. Thanks for the work you do, it definitely makes Wikipedia a better place. RandorXeus (talk) 05:16, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Silly Administrator, don't you know that its 1:30am your time as well? Then again, I notice you on alot around this time, so I guess its a good time for Wikipedia editing, huh? RandorXeus (talk) 05:29, 19 August 2008 (UTC) Its always a good time to edit Wikipedia, as long as your edits are legit and true.[reply]

Re:Huggle

Sure. I stopped using it a few minutes ago but I don't mind ;)   jj137 (talk) 16:06, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hah, go right ahead. And I just tried it out again... wow, it took about 1 second to notice the difference. :)   jj137 (talk) 16:12, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Haha, don't worry, I'll be careful. But who exactly would take your head off?   jj137 (talk) 16:17, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, well in that case, chances are my head would be taken off first for actually making the mistakes. :P   jj137 (talk) 16:25, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nirvanix

Hi J.delanoy,

Thanks for reverting Nirvanix vandalism. You might want to check out Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Mharvey23 as I'm not sure what needs to be done from here - they (Nirvanix's PR company?) have added the AfD template but have not yet created the corresponding entry in AfD. It could be removed as vandalism presumably, only the template says it must not be removed. Please help. MediaMob (talk) 18:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok the AfD nomination was eventually created; you may want to weigh in on this one, or not. MediaMob (talk) 18:50, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I was thinking the account looks like it was compromised. Thanks. Corvus cornixtalk 21:38, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Query re possible block evasion

Hi there - wondered if you'd take a look at this for me. The user has made no mainspace edits as of writing this, but he appears to be admitting a block evasion and you're obviously not on his Christmas card list. I'm reluctant to barge in, poke him with a metaphorical stick when he's not vandalising, warn him for a relatively mild personal attack and report him for block evasion. I wondered whether you'd have a clue to his previous ID, and what (if anything) needs to be done at this stage. Thanks Karenjc 19:04, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1995-96 nhl season

I was trying to delete the standings in the 1995-96 nhl season page when I noticed there were standings for two different years. Both the 1995-96 standings as well as the 1994-95 standings are in this page. I tried to delete the 1994-95 standings but it said that this was considered vandlism. Could you tell me what to do in this situation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tedster1357 (talkcontribs) 23:15, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ladder Golf

On college campuses, where ladder golf is frequently played, the game is commonly referred to as "Testicle Toss." Google the term if you do not believe me. I know the word testicle is not prohibited on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.202.212.27 (talk) 23:54, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

 Thanks for sending the message. You are contributing a lot.
 However, I do not agree why you have removed the link. Those links are highly relevant to "Scheduled Castes" and "Ram Vilas Paswan". Content is really relevant. Otherwise, users would not be clicking on those links. I am not directing them to my personal shopping site. I am directing them to articles and blogs on the SAME topic.
Please add the link back. I would appreciate that.

Possible Hack?

It seems that very recently I have been repeatedly (in separate instances) warned over vandalism on the Cavan Article. I do not recall making any of these edits. I'm worried that I may have been hacked and was wondering what you or I could do. Thank you. James Brown Monster, (talk) 00:09, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that! My password is changed. I think I know who might have done it and will ask them about it. --James Brown Monster, 00:57, 25 August 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesbrownmonster (talkcontribs)
