BJAODN Cut and Paste incident

How do I move a page with multiple sections to BJAODN? Cut and paste did not get good results.

What didn't work? If you use the edit button at the top, instead of the sections editor, it should be easy to cut exactly the part you want. You may then have to change the level headings, to make them appropriate. Adding an extre '=' on either side of the section heading will make it do down a heading (making it a subheading). — 199 17:54, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It was creating section headings that really should have been subheadings. I leanred from someone else's subsequent corrections. Jesse Viviano 17:59, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for that. I must have forgotten to do that, thanks for taking the time to let me know. --Wisden17 19:42, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Help in reporting a Primetime sockpuppet

Did I do everything that I needed to do in reporting Primetime's latest sockpuppet, did I miss something, or do I just need to jump straight to requeting a CheckUser? The suspected sockpuppet is User:Djf2006. Jesse Viviano 21:02, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I blocked User:Djf2006 straight away. Checkuser isn't required when it's an obvious case. I probably would have just reported this to WP:ANI. To be honest I'm not familiar with the sockpuppet process, but use {{helpme}} again if you want a run-down on that for next time.--Commander Keane 21:10, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes you should add {Sockpuppet|Primetime}.--Commander Keane 21:49, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You nominated this article as vandalism. It seems to be a hoax but is there a pattern from this particular user. Capitalistroadster 03:22, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I should have only gotten one warning, since I did not know it was wrong until I had already made both pages. You warned me after both vandalisms. Sorry --Mountain Dew 03:29, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the message on my talk page. It is good to see that the criteria on hoaxes has been tightened up. Capitalistroadster 03:47, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

thanks

thank you for the message. I'll make a note of it. Jon513 17:22, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Zero Mile image in Nagpur article

Jesse, Why did you remove the Zero mile picture from the Nagpur article? Under the Creative Commons License, the image can be reproduced for noncommercial purposes. I don't believe that the article Nagpur is has a commercial intent. I will try to re-insert the image into the picture.

Jimbo Wales himself stated that such images uploaded after May 19, 2005 must be speedily deleted in this post in the Wikipedia mailing list. The GFDL, which is the license that Wikipedia licenses its material under, requires that such material be able to be used for commercial purposes. Creative Commons licensed files used on Wikipedia must allow commercial use and derivatives to be allowed here. Jesse Viviano 14:15, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You said: "Please do not confuse me with User:Ae 3, whom you blocked for one month, when you read my comment. Since I have marked the image with the {{Promotional}} tag and placed the URL of the web page in the image description page, should the changes to remove the image from Kaci Brown be reverted, or should I nominate the image for speedy deletion as a copyvio because 48 hours have not yet passed and it is not used in Kaci Brown?"

I'll mark it with {{orfud}} and if it isn't used within seven days, it will be deleted automatically. In my opinion, it can now be added back to the Kaci Brown article, though that particular article isn't on my watchlist. If you want to do that, please go ahead and then remove the ophaned tag. Thanks for tracking down the source! --Yamla 17:24, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Primetime

Thank you for the heads up. I'll clean up my additions (and make the page into a simple redirect) in a little while. I probably should have done exactly that a long time ago, when I learned that /Primetime belonged on WP:LTA. And double thank you for contacting me on wikt (where I can notice it) and not here! --Connel MacKenzie - wikt 03:46, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've since been given reason to doubt that last batch of sockpuppets, as Primetime now has a copycat, or two. I'm also not sure that considerable cross-project tracking is warranted anymore...especially when I am not well versed on the Wikipedia subtleties. So I'll leave of the dubious additions for now. But thanks again. --Connel MacKenzie - wikt 04:48, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
