Reverting a member of ARBCOM!?!? You have some pretty big stones, my friend. HAFD! — BQZip01 — talk 04:48, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- I have never had any fear, that was an obvious April fools prank, but I had to bust their bubble as they where two minutes early posting it. You should know from my past that when I'm right I have no fear because I know policy is behind me. βcommand 04:52, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

External link at Decompression sickness
Hi, Betacommand. First of all, let me thank you for the work you do in clearing out spam external links. I'm no fan of external links normally, but I think you made a mistake with this deletion. The link you removed points to an online application that calculates decompression stops for a given dive. I didn't add the link, but I believe it is a useful and relevant resource that obviously cannot be incorporated into the article. I've put the link back with a brief explanation of its purpose. If you have the time to review that, I hope you'll agree with my assessment. If not, I'm always happy to discuss it with you, and I'll keep your talk page on my watchlist for a while. If you'd be willing to accept a word of advice, I always open any external link that I'm planning to remove and check it first. If it's not 100% obvious spam, I don't mark it as a minor edit when I remove it, to increase the chance of another editor reviewing it. Happy editing! --RexxS (talk) 19:07, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Spam/2008_Archive_Mar_2.5#Adsense pub-8118598459041388 shows the spam report I was going back over, this was added by a cross wiki spammer who is making money off every visitor we point to their site. Full details will be saved to Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkReports/cavediving.de via COIBot. βcommand 19:37, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- Heh - thanks for the link to the spam report. It took me a while to figure out why the website in question never showed me any adverts when I checked. Then I realised that Adblock Plus automatically blocks Google ads from my browser! At least the spammer didn't get anything from my visit. I've reverted myself and the link is gone. Thanks again. --RexxS (talk) 21:39, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
I have removed the Files for Deletion tag you placed on File:Megatron-beastwars.jpg. I did this because you didn't create a nomination at Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2008 July 19, and didn't give a reason when you tagged the image. If you still think it should be deleted, feel free to renominate it. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:54, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
