Brood

Thanks for answering my question about brood birds. I often ask questions on discussions pages but I rarely get an answer as complete as yours. And (I've read your user page) congratulations on your engagement. Eje211 17:00, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Decision to lead

18:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)Much simpler is to name a country where the Roma are required by law to live nomadic lives. This was the reason for a previous revert and no such country has been suggested. Understand?

Ive decided to take the high ground

While I am still upset about abuse of power by blocking for a month in blatant disregard to wikipedias guidlines, I have decided to be the bigger man, and accept the appology that you said you were going to give, and move on. I noticed that you had a facination of sorts with ebaums world, so I helped clean up the article for you. You dont have to thank me, it just part of what being a responsible administrator in training is all about. I was once quick to accuse an editor myself, when I was worried about a possle pedophile, and I relize even the best of us can make mistakes. I will try to help fix some of the other articles you have been working on as well, but I still have lots to do as I am quite behindpickelbarrel 21:27, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Reply to "Boner!" deletion

Hi DS, as one of the other game players has stated as a comment to another user/administrator Dimes: "This is a real game. and whilst the rules written in a slightly tongue-in-cheek manner (i.e very verbose language was used) it was the best way to describe a relatively complex game.

I agree it is unreferenced, because we invented the game! How else will it get referenced without a start point at which to document it?"

I don't agree at all that this is a vandalous act, just an attempt to get more people interested in a game that many people around the world already play with some variations to the rules, these are simply our versions of the rules of "the advert game" as some call it an in true wikipedia style other users are free to edit and add to our page as they see fit Adamwjeffers 15:18 8/2/2005

Boner!

Just wanted to continue the "debate" which was not ever really had on the actual page...

If we were to create a website, saying pretty much the exact same thing as the wiki page we tried to create, and then reference that... would we be able to keep the wiki page?

or would there be another rule we would be breaking?

That's fair (re:Boner!)

Ok I agree the articles about myself and dave were just idiotic fun on my part and you were right to delete them. But we are serious (although still with a fun frame of mind) about getting the rules of "Boner!" published on this site. And plans are being drawn up for a website as my friend mentioned. However this may take a while and we would really appreciate it if you would allow the rules of "Boner!" to stay to use as a reference to anyone who asks about the game (sport) or anyone who simply stumbles accross it on this site. ps should I continue to discuss this with you through you discussion page or mine, as you have clearly realised already I am a newbie --Adamwjeffers 15:38, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

The Better Mod

I am concerned about your deletion of this article. I don't really see how it meets any of the CSD, and it looks like it was worked on by a variety of editors over a fairly long period of time. I think you should consider restoring the article and using the AFD process, but I would like to hear your thoughts about it. -SCEhardT 02:24, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

OK; Here's my thought: I don't know anything about the subject of the article, but I don't feel that is necessarily relevant. My problem with the speedy deletion is that the article clearly means something to several established editors, who have put a substantial amount of time into it. I don't think it is civil to speedy delete such an article, even if you are sure it would not survive a AFD debate. -SCEhardT 03:36, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

The Better Mod

Persuant to Wikipedia:Undeletion_policy an article must be undeleted by request of 3 voters and furthermore must be undeleted if deleted out of process as was the case with this entry.

I agree with SCEhardt. This is an excellent mod for Blockland that has been repeatedly attacked, berated, defamed, persecuted, and wrongfully accused for almost a year. Due to the jealous actions of avid Blockland users that hail from competing modifications, this Wikpedia entry has greatly suffered. Yet none of these other modifications have received the same punishment. As an avid believer in the mission of Wikipedia, I have stood behind decisions made by a fair and unbiased group of volunteer admins. I have also donated much to Wikipedia as the smallest pentence for the incredible service they provide. I am not telling, begging, commanding, or otherwise demanding that you restore the entry you have deleted. Rather, I am asking that you reconsider your actions, and if you stand by your decision, the decision to delete all entries discussing modifications for Blockland should be made. This only to further enforce the idea that Wikipedia and its admins stand for a fair and unbiased Wikipedia. MCP 03:12, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Furthermore, TBM is one of the most noteworthy mods in Blockland history. If you had ever used it, you would know that. The claims made by Badspot and others are completely unfounded, and the edit wars that ensued were made by malicious persons. If you had bothered to check the logs of other mods, you would find the same type of edit wars, as well as many times when TBM users would remove malicious vandalism from other entries. Just because we believe in being fair and balanced does not mean we should be punished for it.MCP 03:18, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

The Better Mod

I, as MCP has also stated, am concerned with how the situation with The Better Mod's wiki was dealt with. I do not agree with the way you deleted it, as you had not held a vote on whether or not it should be kept. I have worked very long and for many hours on this project, and to see it's wiki get deleted is not a very acceptable thing for me to see. In the past, innumerable people had continuously edited, deleted, warped, twisted, slandered, and completely ruined our hard efforts at maintaining a good page for The Better Mod. MCP and others have had to continuously fix The Better Mod's wiki because of these people, and it has been no easy chore i'm sure. So please, restore The Better Mod's page. Hopefully -and i do hope- you will take to our words and replace them with actions. Gobbles 10:39, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

The Better Mod

I am also concerned with the sudden deletion of the TBM Wiki. It has endured flame wars and malicious attacks for near a years time, and has constantly had to be fixed and redone. They have upheld all of the Wikipedia rules of conduct, and their excellent Wiki entry shouldn't have been deleted so hastily. I request the re-establishment of The Better Mod's Wiki entry, and I hope that you will agree. User:Dustin_Evans 11:41, 8 February 2006

Thanks!

Thanks for welcoming me! Mainly I joined to keep an eye on Elftown, but Wikipedia's innerworkings is very intruiging! I should stay away though, before I get addicted to it ;-)

Love, Sunrose 15:36, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Legs

Will do. And I'm sorry for posting this message on the wrong page originally. Squamate 19:39, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Bull[badword]?

Get out man, don't partronise me. Been sensible in the past? Well thank goodness my record of being a good little boy so far had endeered me to you. Maybe now my punishment won't be too severe. A smacked arse maybe, or make me stand in the corner. You know what? It was a joke. A practical joke on a friend of mine that, for the record, we all found pretty funny. You should thank yer lucky stars we did something imaginative instead of just going on the George Bush page and changing every other word to poo like some dozy bastards do. Anyway, cheers for the concern, yer a credit to the 'pedia. I'll now return to editing pages sensibly until I fancy messing about again. BTW, let you in on a little secret, coz you genuinely seem quite nice: doing something you find funny every now and again, without caring if anyone else does - that's the secret to eternal youth. --Crestville 15:24, 11 February 2006 (UTC) (p.s: don't worry, I'm not a frustrated 12 yr old.)

I noticed that you didnt even bother to cast a vote on the Panty Waste

Which seems a bit hypocritical since you blocked me for a fucking month for writing it in the first place. To block somebody for creating a garbage article and Then not even bothering to vote as to weather it needed to be deleted gives you the appearance of being A bit of a dillweed Im not saying you are, just that I would have thought you would have at least chimed in in some manner, if for no other reason than to just say you were completely wrong for not assuming good faith to begin with. Perhaps there are some guidlines against an administrator maiing arguments on a page he had previously unfairly deleted in which case I do understand, but you still have not bothered to appologize to me, which you said you were going to do, and which I think would be appropriate. Anyway I have already acceptted your appology, and I hope that you will try not to be so quick to criticize in the future. Best of luck to you pickelbarrel 20:14, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

well that makes sense...

That seems like a good reason not to vote, although I should point out that you DID NOT seem to worry about said bias when blocking me. Still I respect your decision, and, of coarse, I accept your appology...pickelbarrel 23:25, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Thank you Hello DragonflySixtyseven, and thank you for your support in my request for adminship and your compliments on my talk page! My RfA passed with a final count of 63/4/3. I am honoured by the community support and pledge to serve the project as best as I can. CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 16:43, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Recycling AfD

You previously voted keep on an AfD for LJ Drama. It was re-nominated to AfD out of spite here, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/LJ Drama, and I thought you might like to consider voting again. SchmuckyTheCat 02:09, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Block Request: User:64.39.129.50

You blocked this user about a week ago for 48 hrs. He/she has returned with more vandalism. If you notice, the (lengthy) contribs list is almost entirely vandalism, so I don't think you should have any qualms about a longer block period. --DLand 15:23, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for putting the name of my article right and welcoming me to Wikipedia. J Gez M 19th February 2006.

Frivolous deletions

• Care to explain? --Ghirla | talk 09:47, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Having trouble with speedy deletion request

Hello. I have posted a few articles for speedy deletion for a little while now, but there seems to be a backlog. The articles are Ciaran Paul Donnelly, Jessica Beaumont and Tomasz Winnicki. These articles seem to be nothing more than a form of attack on private individuals with no notability. Please read the information in the Talk pages to see the reason for requesting speedy deletion.

Thank you. Imstillhere 16:01, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Your reqests are without merit. For one, Winnicki's been featured on CBC Radio's As It Happens. Homey 20:35, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

AYBABTU

As an occasional editor of the AYBABTU article, I wanted you to know that someone has suggested that the transcript of the opening and closing dialog be deleted. Personally, I think this is ludicrous, but your support is needed to keep the information on Wikipedia. If you are in favor of keeping the text, as it is clearly used under fair use guidelines, please enter a KEEP vote on its AFD page. Thanks! --BRossow 05:17, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Squidoo

Hello. Please see Talk:Squidoo. I would prefer it be listed on AfD instead of speedied if you still think it needs deleting. Angela. 23:25, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaazzup

Yo DS, wazzup man. How do you become an admin? I think you made a mistake by warning me. Crowbaaa 14:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Crap Man

I want a few links to what I did wrong, please, for the good of justice. And is there a page where you vote for admin? Crowbaaa 14:18, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

?

Why did you swear on my talkpage man? Anyway what was wrong with that U.S. thing. Other people were fine with it, and are there any set of rules I am breaking? Plus anymore links? If so I wouldn't mind seeing them. Lucky I'm not a jerk I have made new articles that make sense. Crowbaaa 14:27, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
