Joke Vandalism

Some lovely diamonds for your 1500th Jubilee

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page you will be blocked from editing. -- Essjay · Talk 04:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, yeah, I'm being funny too...I saw your little vandalism. Congratulations on hitting 1500!

I would have been here sooner, but I got a call from a friend (at 12:30 at night!) who has a kidney infection. She wanted my adivce on what to do; I told her my specialty is theology not peeology and that just because I have Dr. in front of my name doesn't mean I practice medicine! (Actually, I told her to go to the ER if she felt that bad.) Anywho, good work! -- Essjay · Talk 04:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

How are you a Dr. if your degree is in Theology...? Redwolf24 04:47, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a Dr. because I have two doctorate degrees (four if you count honorary degrees), although I'm only called "Dr." in academic circles. Same reason that any professor (except med school, of course) is called "Dr." -- Essjay · Talk 04:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Ph. D. Beautiful. Guess my academic achievement! Redwolf24 04:52, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hummm...I don't know! You tell me. I don't talk about the degrees much because I don't want people to assume things about me; for the most part, I have them listed there because they can be of some help when someone is wondering whether I know what I'm talking about or not. So, if you hadn't noticed my academic creds, what did you think about me? -- Essjay · Talk 04:58, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Well I'll try to be NPOV about it. :P I think of you as a very kind user who chases vandals. I haven't seen you contribute to articles lately, just reverting vandalism. NPOV is hard ya know >.< Anyways I'll show my education after I become an admin, though I was just wondering if anyone would vote for me really... Yes I welcome and yes I've created a lot of music related articles and I've been very active but I don't revert vandalism that much. So I'm not sure I'll win the first RfA... Ah well though, if at first you don't suceed, try and try again. Redwolf24 05:05, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I wasn't sure how mine would go, and I have 27-1-1! Granted, there's still a week to go, but some RfA's don't get 27 votes total in the whole week. TenOfAllTrades is pretty popular, and he got 58 support votes total; I've gotten half that in the first day! My point isn't to brag at all, just to say, you never know! I guarantee you you'll get at least one vote that says Overwhealming, Enthusiastic, Unequivocal Support, And I am unanimous in that! -- Essjay · Talk 05:14, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

I knew you'd get a lot of people. You are always helping and watching help desks though. Plus you answered the questions better than I think I will... Redwolf24 05:16, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I think you'll do fine. You do a fair bit of helping, and it's obvious you're willing to help when asked. As for the desks, you can watch them too if you want, it honestly doesn't tak much time. When it comes time to answer those questions, if you're having trouble, I'll help you out. Plus, you know I'm going to give you awesome reviews in your nom!

It doesn't take a lot to get into RC patrol, and really, when you do, you'll get caught up in it. (Think of how much fun we had chasing the trolls the other day!) You're going to be an admin, and you're going to be great at it! -- Essjay · Talk 05:22, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

=-D I'm off to Welcome some more people! Yay {{Subst:User:Redwolf24/Welcome}}

Believe it baby! I beat you to 'em! [Does a little dance] Not many of them out there right now, though, is there? -- Essjay · Talk 05:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Rawr. Well I still beat you 97% of the time so I'm fine :P. No there hasn't been many newbs.... Redwolf24 05:40, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
You've Got Mail. Redwolf24 05:43, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
So do you! -- Essjay · Talk 05:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
haha, ~~~~ doesn't work in hotmail. What a shame! Redwolf24 05:57, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Did I sign it ~~~~? God, I do have an addiction. And I left you a link in my sandbox. -- Essjay · Talk 06:00, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

You've gotta go see the latest vote! It's #28. -- Essjay · Talk 06:09, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Haha good stuff. I really better catch up. Redwolf24 06:11, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm proud to be a trollslayer! The trolls shall not prevail! -- Essjay · Talk 06:45, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Where'd you disappear to? -- Essjay · Talk 07:33, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
I was talking with some girls. They seemed to be confused. :) Redwolf24 07:34, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Randy little bugger! ; - ) -- Essjay · Talk 07:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Troll

Your troll is back! Special:Contributions/Mickey654 Same time every day! -- Essjay · Talk 07:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

>.< Its alright though. Cept he was banned for 24 hours it says. He'll be back. Oh yes, he will be back. Anyways one of those girls was being harassed online by an Ephebophile. There's nothing I loathe more than men over 18 who go with girls under 16 cause they can't get any with their own age. It frustrates me to no end. I would go on but there's no point. Anywho, now I'll leave my John Hancock. Redwolf24 08:05, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Uncanny; I'm discussing the 24 hour block with the blocker as we speak! Don't worry, the Trollslayer is on the case!

As for your friend, I sympatize with her; I'm too old for chicken, and I stay away from it. Besides that, what do a thirty-something-year-old and a sixteen-year-old have in common? ; - ) -- Essjay · Talk 08:16, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

They're both horny? Redwolf24 08:20, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Dirty bugger! Cheeky monkey! : - ) Check your email. -- Essjay · Talk 08:22, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

K, I added a section to my user page in a dubious attempt to be profound. Ha, Redwolf24 08:28, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I applaud your profoundity! -- Essjay · Talk 09:12, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

And I jokingly scowl at your sarcasm :) Back to RC Redwolf24 09:13, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You've been at RC? I've been having a theology discussion! Now, time for some real-time RC patrol. BTW, the list just keeps getting longer! -- Essjay · Talk 09:21, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Hey, Red, go check User talk:Salilus; it looks like there's something wrong with your template! -- Essjay · Talk 09:24, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I know, and frankly I don't get it. You won't be able to fix it either I dont think >.< Redwolf24 09:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Are you copy/pasting or using the {{ }}? -- Essjay · Talk 09:35, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Edit conflict, predictable one. I was using {{Subst:User:Redwolf24/Welcome}} but now I'm copying nad pasting. Redwolf24 09:36, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't want to have to copy/paste, I can fix it so you can subst: -- Essjay · Talk 09:38, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer, but please don't. Copy and paste is simpler and two buttons, subst is like 20 keystrokes. Redwolf24 09:40, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't you tell me you use Firefox? Get this extension. It lets you set predefined signatures (no character limit), and then insert them by right clicking (it adds a signature menu to your right click). That's what I use for my welcomes as well as all my RC patrol notices. It makes it two clicks and you have your message, plus you don't have to keep it on the clipboard to use it, so you can use it when you stumble across some hot girl. : - ) -- Essjay · Talk 09:50, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Ha. Redwolf24 09:52, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ha? -- Essjay · Talk 10:01, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Yes, Ha. I'll take a look at that stuff some other time. Right now I'm a bit busy. Also, take a look at User:THE BULLSHIT DETECTOR and User:THE BULLSHIT DETECTIVE. Redwolf24 10:06, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Calm down, dude...I just didn't quite get what you meant by "Ha." I know you've been busy; your name's gone across my RC screen quite a few times in the last few mins. ; - ) As for those users, I'm going to list them at RfC. -- Essjay · Talk 10:09, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Whoa didn't mean to come off as hostile. By the way I was just at RC and there were FOUR USERS IN A ROW without talk pages!! *click* *ctrl+v* *save* *back* *back* *Rinse, Wash, and repeat 3 more times* Redwolf24 10:25, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Help

Thanks for writing back.

I already entered my revisions and saved.

Does that mean I can't "sign"?

I just can't figure out what it is I'm supposed to sign, or where.

If I logged in before making revisions, does that mean that I'm already "signed" ?

Bounce Your Boobies

Thanks for sticking that category label on the Bounce Your Boobies page. When I created the article, I was afraid some wickedpedean would come along and delete it, but instead I'm getting help! Wikipedia is great... :) -asx- 05:04, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, to tell you the truth I expected that to be deleted, I thought someone was vandalizing. Then I saw that it was an actual song. So I stuck a category on it :) Redwolf24 05:07, 14 July 2005 (UTC)</nowiki>[reply]

Thanks

Heh Thanks for the welcome. Skillz187

Thanks again

Usernames

(I'm starting a new section 'cause the old one was getting really long.)

Anyhow, I listed both of those users at RfC, and I left notes on each of thier pages directing them to the username policy. Also, the one with the nasty note on his user page got a note about no personal attacks. We'll see what the admins at RfC say. -- Essjay · Talk 10:24, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

(I think you missed the above.)

I didn't mean to sound like I thought you were hostile; that's why I added the smiley. I just didn't want you to think I was being snippy. -- Essjay · Talk 10:27, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah at first I didn't comment cause of that smiley but then I decide to, minutes later albeit. Redwolf24 10:29, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

WHY DID YOU DELETE MY USER ACCOUNT?

THE BULLSHIT DETECTIVE

Sounds like somebody needs to lay off the coffee...
And it was deleted because it's an offensive username. I suggest you read Wikipedia:Username_policy to make sure it doesn't happen again. NickBush24 11:13, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Further, you should know that Redwolf24 cannot delete accounts; if your account was blocked, it was by a Wikipedia administrator because it violated Wikipedia policy. Please see your talk page for an explaination. -- Essjay · Talk 11:16, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
Neither account has been blocked as of now; however, consensus to block is developing at RfC. -- Essjay · Talk 11:20, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
I was the one who started it out. I was gonna welcome him but then I saw his name and changed it to a name warning. Redwolf24 11:44, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Right, then I went behind you and left a policy link and listed it at RfC. I don't know why he thinks his account was deleted, when it obviously hasn't been. Perhaps he needs to direct his crusade towards himself. -- Essjay · Talk 11:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Your standard welcome message needs fixing

Methinks you need to fix your standard welcome message by replacing all occurrences of the tilde ~ by &#126; lest the tilde-sequences get replaced when you {{subst: it. See e.g. User talk:Reynoldsrapture for the effect. Lupo 12:08, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes I've been addressed on this several times. Thanks for your concern and nice to see a fellow Wolf! Redwolf24 12:23, 14 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the Welcome message

I also like messages :)
