Oops, sorry, my bad :-( Got careless in the midst of vandal hunting. I shot the wrong guy in the face. *blush* --Targeman 21:01, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

The bowling alley

{{HelpMe}} I'm not sure, I will redirect this to bowling most likely, but first I need to know, are any lists, or something like that, that have lists of many bowling alley? I know for sure many bowling alleys are called "The Bowling Alley", if there is no article like that, then I will redirect this to bowling, I have to make sure first, since most people (or at least I would) would be looking for a particular bowling alley. TheBlazikenMaster 01:27, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Is there a particular reason as to why this should be redirected? I doubt, because wikipedia is not a directory, that there is a list of bowling alleys. --wpktsfs 01:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

User:Foolishfools

I don't know if I'm right or wrong, so that's why I'm asking. Could that used be blockable because of the name? TheBlazikenMaster 15:35, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Could what be blockable because of the name? --Sopoforic 17:42, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi TheBlazikenMaster, that username is not blockable I think. User:Foolishfools does not seem to be an inappropriate username to me. - TwoOars 17:43, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
IMHO, probably not. Check WP:USERNAME#Inappropriate_usernames for the username policy. Miranda 17:45, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Gyarados

I know this isn't a talk page but I noticed your edit summary at [1], and my take is that it's supposed to resemble a Chinese dragon, which I believe according to legend do fly. Just my opinion though. Anyways, cheers and happy editing. :) -WarthogDemon 23:43, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Timestamp

Sorry for "fixing" that "typo". My system showed that you posted it at 18:36, so I thought it was an error, but I forgot that the times are UTC and not CEST. :-) Melsaran 21:17, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

KFC speedy tags

Argh. These pages were removed so the page could be moved back. Now I've got to speedy them again. Please take the time to check why a redirect was deleted before readding it. Chris Cunningham 13:29, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I get it now. Thanks.--ZXCVBNM 23:11, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Dead talk pages that previously existed.

Why are a lot of talk pages of permanently blocked users often blanked after a month or so? I have no problem at all with that, I just wanna know. After all Wikipedia is for knowledge. And it would take me long time to know what guideline tells things like that, first off there are many guidelines that come to my mind, and I don't know which one tell info like that. TheBlazikenMaster 21:35, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


A: The blocked users' User Page is probably blocked because everyone knows that he can't edit any pages on Wikipedia. This is not the right thing to do though, because it's considered vandalism. 71.212.105.204 22:47, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Could you elaborate?

  • That doesn't answer my question. Did I say blanked? Did I say user page? Because what I meant is why are user talk pages deleted after a month or so if some vandal is permanently blocked? TheBlazikenMaster 22:51, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

A. I don't really know for sure, but Wikipedia is probably just trying to save some space. Does that help? •Malinaccier• T/C 22:55, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Well, I suspected that, but what to do if the talk page is removed and there is a sockpuppery problem?—Preceding unsigned comment added by TheBlazikenMaster (talkcontribs)
I don't know. You could suggest for Wikipedia to change its policy by e-mailing them here: [2] •Malinaccier• T/C 23:00, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
No thanks, I just want the best answer of my oringal question. I will keep the help tag for two hours, if it stays there by then, then I guess keeping Wikipedia clean is the best answer there is. TheBlazikenMaster 23:02, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
When a user talk page is tagged with an indef block template, the user talk page is automatically added to Category:Temporary Wikipedian userpages. Pages in that category for a while are deleted. This applies to user pages as well. There is a note at the top of that category not to delete pages listed in that category if they are related to sockpuppetry. If an administrator does accidentally delete a sockpuppet's user or user talk page, you should contact that administrator as the page should be undeleted. GAH! Three edit conflicts! --NickContact/Contribs 23:04, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
    • That's even better answer than I asked for, thanks. TheBlazikenMaster 23:05, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Rare animal

I'm wondering where I should redirect this to, please give me a short list, and I will decide myself where to redirect this to. TheBlazikenMaster 23:56, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I can't think of any page that would be appropriate to redirect that to. As there are no guidelines for what qualifies a "rare" animal, a list of animals considered rare wouldn't be based on anything. --NickContact/Contribs 23:59, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
You're right, some animals are rare in one area, common in another. "rare" would be hard to explain on a worldwide encyclopedia. TheBlazikenMaster 00:08, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Bobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobobo

Who was he? I recall seeing him somewheres as a blocked account one day (I was browsing aimlessly through Wikipedia) but I don't know who he was or what he did. Think it might be the same dude? -WarthogDemon 23:02, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Re: Some of it is about the show, like question 4

Just wanna say thanks for deleting that dopey troll thread. Good work. / edg 21:45, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I didn't delete it in the first place, just someone readded it, I made a comment on that person's page, to clear things up. TheBlazikenMaster 21:47, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Even better work. Cromulent Kwyjibo (talk · contribs) has a history of defending cruft — dunno if he'll take it this far, but if I see the section restored again, I'll certainly gong it. / edg 22:01, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Family Guy reference desk proposal

I've invited several participants in the recent Questions about Family Guy thread to WP:FG to dicuss the possibility of starting a Family Guy reference desk.

I know you don't need to be explicitly invited, but I want to say I hope we'll hear from you there. / edg 22:42, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Reason

Reason why I changed it because it looks nice. Also they might be looking for the other Kal-L.Brian Boru is awesome 01:11, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

In reply to your question about SineBot

HagermanBot has been offline all summer. SineBot is the replacement. -FisherQueen (Talk) 11:08, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Kid and Kids

Last month you redirected the pages Kid and Kids to Child, and moved the disambiguation pages to Kid (disambiguation) and Kids (disambiguation). I decided not to worry about it at the time because you were correct that most of the ambiguous links to those terms intended child or children and it didn't seem worth the trouble to argue about it. However another editor decided to change things around--turning the plain links into redirects to the parenthetic links, which was wrong and needed to be fixed. But in fixing them, I decided that the older construction was better: because dab pages should be at the plain term if possible (per WP:DAB)--' "Term XYZ (disambiguation)" is not the standardized name for a disambiguation page, and is only used when there is a primary topic with an article at "Term XYZ" '--and because Kid is always the correct term for a young goat, but it is only used informally as a reference to child. Since Kid and Kids were not primary-topic articles, just redirects, I think the disambiguation pages should be there. If you still disagree, I'm totally open to discussion or to asking the opinions of other editors. --ShelfSkewed Talk 14:32, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Request

Hey, could you please merge Nidoran, Nidorino, and Nidoking? I already placed the summaries on List of Pokémon (21-40), but you can look over them if you like. I don't know how to merge or I would do it myself, and Wikipedis instructions confuse me. If your too busy, I can ask someone else. I just dont want to mess something up if it can be avoided. Thanks, Ageofe 03:03, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

List of Pokémon (141-160)

Sorry about the mix up. I added back exactly what I was trying to remove. I saw someone added it back, so I reverted several reversions back, and it was still there apparently. My apologies. :D SpigotMap 10:01, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

!!!!

The redirect you created, !!!!, has been proposed for deletion. Should you want, you can give your views and comments at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2007_August_31. This should be done within 7 days, after which the discussion will close and a concensus will be reached. ChrisDHDR 16:37, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
