Hi Martin
Removing the legal notice is not a problem for me, but to say it is after the fact, is contradicting my job as a WikiPedia Spam patrolman.
I did not put the notice after you blocked the anon IP user but before. I put the notice because I saw abuse of other editors being brought to administrators notice board Incidents#Anonymous_threatening.
Wikipedia:User_talk:122.167.6.1&action=history
Please word it appropriately, for future references. Thank you, Igor Berger (talk) 15:34, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- OK. NPA templates usually serve no good purpose at all other than to annoy a user. That's the ultimate reason I overwrite your warning in my edit conflict. Thanks, Martinp23 15:42, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- The problem is that I know how it is to be in front of the ANB for days while an anon abuses you, so when I saw the talk at the ANB and looked at the anon history I saw many problems covering all gama of abuse. We need to react quicker to Social Engineering Malware abuse. Also we need to educate our editors to explain the policy of WikiPedia to anon so the problem does not escalate to abuse. Maybe the anon just did not know how we do things by consensus. Anyway just trying to help out with the common cause..:) Igor Berger (talk) 15:51, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Wikibreak
According to your user page you have been on wikibreak since September 2007. I have a sneaky suspicion that this is not true! :) --kingboyk (talk) 21:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Welcome!
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
- Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, article improvement contests, and other tasks.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a style guide that covers article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
- The project has a stress hotline available for your use.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill 23:08, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Strange request
Hi, can you please drop me a line on my talk page? We don't know each other, you're simply the first person I found on the recent changes page, so I have somewhat of a guarantee you're online. I'm asking you to do this because I need to see the Wikipedia format for "you have new messages", for a technical proposal. Thank you! --Gutza T T+ 01:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you! --Gutza T T+ 01:30, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Re:BAG
I think that you have misunderstood what you have seen. I didn't code the bot. I created the account, but not what it does, and it has been "run" through his account, though it isn't a "bot" per se, I speedy approved it becuase of all of the work that has already been done on its "tasks" that I didn't need to have it run a trial on that account, as it has been run on his main account, it is not written on code, it is manually done and assisted. ~ Dreamy § 20:25, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
- Actually he does need the bot flag because of the intent of the bot, it creates articles, and so they need to be automatically "patrolled", and so that they don't show up in Recentchanges, as they are created at a bhot-like speed, about three-six pages a minute. ~ Dreamy § 20:43, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, the only other way to have what I stated above is to have been made an admin, and he has refused that before and doesn't want it now, I will have him comment on the BRFA page. ~ Dreamy § 20:47, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, 'tis no problem, mate. I would have made the same conclusion as well. I am commenting currently on the BRFA page. ~ Dreamy § 20:51, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:HD Archive header
A tag has been placed on Template:HD Archive header requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes.
Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 06:21, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: Speedy taggings
Oops. Sorry about that. Do you have any thoughts on a method to mark the templates that are always substituted or would have a reason to be transclusion-less? I thought about a <noinclude> template on the Template page, but then I thought about something simpler like a category on the Template_talk: page. At the moment, it can be sort of a guessing game, or at least, pretty hard to tell, if a template is substituted or not. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 19:41, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello!
I investigated a parallel bus company that the AMT oversees too. It's the Société de transport de Montréal. There is a bus pass on it. Altough the image used is clearly not the same but the size and plastic type used is the same, take a look at Image:Cam-may-2005.jpg. Even tough it's not the same company, the STM allows the AMT bus pass to be used entirely on its service territory. It has been uploaded on Commons and look at the tag. I feel like it's the appropriate one. Thanks! --Party!Talk to me! 16:06, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Suggested rename of User:Non-Free Content Compliance Bot
- Cross-posted to User talk:Non-Free Content Compliance Bot, User talk:ST47, User talk:Martinp23, User talk:SQL, and User talk:Betacommand.
Would you (all four of you) consider asking for a rename of this bot to User:NFCC Bot (10c)? The reason is that I hope the proposal at Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria compliance will gain support, and part of that is a plan to create the following bot accounts to take on the roles of enforcing compliance of those aspects of WP:NFCC that can be checked by bots. User:NFCC Bot (3a), User:NFCC Bot (3b), User:NFCC Bot (7), User:NFCC Bot (9), User:NFCC Bot (10b), User:NFCC Bot (10c). Since the code proposed to run on User:Non-Free Content Compliance Bot is a clone of BetacommandBot's task of enforcing the bot-enforceable part of NFCC#10c, I think the rename I am proposing will help make things clearer. Could you post replies at User talk:Non-Free Content Compliance Bot? Thanks. Carcharoth (talk) 01:55, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
ANI debate on BRFA
Hi Martin
I thought I should notify you that I have just mentioned you in an ANI post, which you may want to look at. It's this post in Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Comments_by_Philippe, where I seek some clarification from BAG in general. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:17, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- See also [2][. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:28, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- You have said: "It just need to be impressed upon BAG members that community input is of paramount importance. I've said it dozens of times now on WT:BAG, and as a result of this will produce a short message reminding BAG members exactly what the standards are and what I for one expect us to do. Seriously - I go on and on about how community input is the most important thing." - would you be able to point out where the previous discussions on WT:BAG are, and where the short message is (once you have produced it)? You also say that "the operators are all available on IRC and I for one am willing to help as far as I can via my talk page or (preferably) email" - I accept that bot operators will use IRC a lot, but is there any reason why lots of discussion (such as the discussions on that bot approval request) are taking place off-wiki? Could you also impress on BAG members the need to discuss things on-wiki as well as off, and that all actual actions and decisions need to be justified on-wiki if requested (and even, in many cases, if not requested)? Thanks. Carcharoth (talk) 10:50, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- Most recently probably my comment of 21:17, 31 January 2008 (UTC) on Wikipedia_talk:Bots/Approvals_group/Archive_5. As for IRC - personally I find it helpful for sanity checks. I believe the established wisdom is that we never make onwiki decisions offwiki (though this isn't the case in many fora). I do agree with you that it's a problem, and probably something best brought up at WT:BRFA or WT:BAG. Finally, my my message. Martinp23 16:42, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

YO dude, it wasn't me who made that edit to Cork!! I didn't, I swear on Bill Gates' life! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.40.232.234 (talk) 10:06, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Notification of Complaint
Swearing, mediation and dispute resolution - Attachment theory
* KingsleyMiller (initiator)
* Martinp23 (Administrator and member of the Wikipedia Mediation Committee) * CWii
[edit] Statement by User:KingsleyMiller
There is an unofficial policy operating in Wikipedia which condones the use of bad language ie swearing. The Wikipedia Administrator with the user name Martinp23 used the F word whilst editing (LINK). Wikipedia Administrators do not have special privileges and if other Editors can see Martinp23 get away with this form of intimidation they will feel there is nothing to stop them from doing so also. In this case the Editor with the user name CWii felt free to follow suit (LINK). CWii followed this with a warning to me about my behaviour on my user page (LINK). Martinp23 has also made comments about 'banging heads together' and that he knows this 'sort of dispute'(LINK). For somebody sitting on the Wikipedia Mediation Committee to make such comments without knowing the facts of the case is inappropriate.
I am asking the Arbitration Committee to decide that Martinp23 and CWii be restricted from any discussion in which I am also involved as well as any other sanction that may be appropriate. If no sanction is deemed necessary I should like the policy of swearing to be formally adopted by Wikipedia so that individual Editors may be prepared to know what to expect when they challenge the established status quo.

You need this, for that
weburiedoursecretsinthegarden has given you a cup of coffee, for taking the time to weather a dispute. Thanks for staying calm and civil! Coffee somehow promotes WikiLove and hopefully this has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a coffee, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or someone putting up with some stick at this time. Enjoy!
Spread the lovely, warm, bitter goodness of coffee by adding {{subst:WikiCoffee}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

Just a note
I actually think it was appropriate of you to go to Bugs talk to express your concern over him continuing the drama. Just the threat of a possible block, then the follow up of "I don't care then" really bothered me. In my subtle way, I think I was saying, you did what was right by closing down that ANI for the time being, and even telling Bugs you didn't think he was helping was fine too. Just the block threat... Gwynand | Talk•Contribs 13:40, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Heh, yes, I know. It was rather inflammatory and would have been best avoided. Thanks, Martinp23 13:43, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Is this a joke? I hope so. Gwynand | Talk•Contribs 17:14, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- (e/c) I hope so too. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 17:16, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
No, for now I really don't wish to contribute. Hopefully this will change in the future as the community comes together (if it doesn't, I expect it will fall in on itself). I don't think me being here at the moment is going to help that goal, either! This isn't a feeble attempt at drama, and my status will have hardly changed from before, except that I won't be suddenly appearing from nowhere! Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Community was prepared by me before something happened IRL which made me realise I coudln't carry on here, not at the moment. I'd still like to see that discussion go on, if anyone cares about it :). Thanks, Martinp23 17:30, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Best of luck to you then. I'll go rephrase my snarky comment left there, I assumed worse than you intended. Cheers, Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 17:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Urgh, I meant to do this before. Apologies to baseball, wknight, kingsely, or anyone else I've offended recently. I hope that even if I've been somewhat "direct" and brash, you've been able to see what I mean behind that. Sorry. Martinp23 17:43, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not familiar with you but you seem like a reasonable albeit burned-out Wikipedian. Been there, done that, and breaks of various lengths have done wonders for me in the past! Don't be a stranger. —Wknight94 (talk) 18:35, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Your the one thats wrong
Hey man dont you dare say I was uncivil or said something wrong. It wasnt even mean. Dont come to me with that stuff. I said right thankyou. You are wrong. Being blocked 3 times is not good. I could have been alot wronger and I was not wrong. So maybe you should get your head together before you talk like that.Gears Of War 22:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
The following is a message directed to my Editor Coach that you should see:
- I reacted this way because he came to me like i did something wrong. The discussion was closed and we all settled the whole thing. Okay maybe I missed it by one but I will not let people be like that. My whole attitude to that situation is that I had better things to do than get dragged into a conva that could get me called uncivil. Thats why I orriginally deleted his comment.Gears Of War 17:21, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
