Nice userbox!

Hej MrStalker, could I please steal your userbox for my own userpage? It makes no sense having two when one works wonderfully. Tack på förhand! Jared Preston (talk) 17:55, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Yes, of course! Please do! --MrStalker ^(talk) 18:16, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Cheers, it looks really good! Jared Preston (talk) 18:39, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism

Thanks for removing the vandalism from my talk page!dj (talk) 20:22, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Rathmines, New South Wales

Hi Mr. Stalker. I just reverted your good faith revert on this article. Have a good look at the paragraph in question, especially the links. It's utterly bogus. Favonian (talk) 15:37, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Thank You

Thank You for updating the D.O.B of Firass Dirani... That conflict of 2 D.O.B's on a day he just won Australia's Bachelor of the year by Cleo Magazine, would have been very confusing for most fans of his!

Interesting

It will be interesting to see you define the Solar System.

Thank you for fixing my below error in complex systems, I am just getting the hang of this and I am working in plain text, I think that I have the hang of making adjustments now--Greg Royston Molineux (talk) 00:42, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Beyond Good & Evil (video game)

Just wanna let you know that BG&E is now a Good Article. So... about this. GamerPro64 (talk) 23:25, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Oh, time to pay up! Hekerui (talk) 20:59, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

GamerPro, of course. Hekerui, who are you? As far as I can tell you haven't made a single edit to the article. --MrStalker ^(talk) 22:19, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

I didn't say I want money, I just expressed surprise to see something on the bounty board got done. Don't be grumpy Hekerui (talk) 22:28, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Mr.Stalker, I'm planning on giving BG&E another Peer Review. Can you push the bounty to July or something? GamerPro64 (talk) 01:27, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Better Luck Tomorrow & The Fast and the furious franchise

Please, do not vandalise "The Fast and the Furious" template again. Better Luck Tomorrow is related to the franchise. Because of this the link is there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.15.191 (talk) 19:20, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

What the bleep edits

Hi Mr Stalker,

On the page for what the bleep I added "not a physicist" to a couple of peoples names, which you then reverted. It says on the wiki pages of these people what they are. William Tiller is an engineer, David Albert is a philosopher. Of course, there may be some dispute over what a physicist is, but I believe a good definition is someone that does physics research that is accepted by the peer review process. Neither of these two people qualify with that criteria.

I'm not completely sure how I would cite a source here (I'm not very experienced with wikipedia) so I will leave it with you. I would take wikipedia as a given and only cite external material as required.

Best,

J. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.25.235.7 (talk) 06:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Tiller is a professor in Material Science and Engineering, which is a physics sub-subject, and has wrote a book about subtle energies. Albert has a doctorate in theoretical physics. Both these two definitely qualifies as physicists and are credited as such in the movie. --MrStalker ^(talk) 16:50, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Bollocks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.198.253 (talk) 21:33, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, that very insightful statement will certainly convince me. --MrStalker ^(talk) 11:38, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Medal of Honor/Battlefield

Hello. I removed the Battlefield template from the new Medal of Honor page (and the "related" field from the Battlefield template) as I feel they're tangentially related at best. While they are related (DICE dev'ing the MP for MoH), it's in the same way Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Assassin's Creed are related - similar/the same genre, similar/the same dev team - and shouldn't be noted in the infobox. Thanks! Fin©™ 13:18, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair enough. --MrStalker ^(talk) 16:13, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 00:31, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

reverting test edits

You don't need to revert edits to pages at Wikipedia:Pending changes/Testing and place notices on ip talk pages like this: [1] - these pages are for testing, and your (impressively) quick reverts are disruptive to the testing. Thanks, ErikHaugen (talk) 16:12, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

When you're browsing through tens of edits per minute using Huggle searching for vandalism its hard to notice the difference. --MrStalker ^(talk) 16:57, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you!

Hi MrStalker, thank you for reverting vandalism on my page! — Zhernovoi (talk) 17:41, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

images based on wp icons

Hey, do you know if it is ok to make little pictures for use on wp based on the wikipedia icons/logos? Do you know where I would find out whether that is ok to do? Thanks, ErikHaugen (talk) 17:47, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Well in general I would say yes, but I'm no expert on copyright so you might want to check WP:COPY. --MrStalker ^(talk) 23:30, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

ACC tool request

I've requested access to the account creation interface. --MrStalker ^(talk) 23:28, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for applying to access the account creation tool. I have approved your request. You may now access the tool here. Before you do so, please read the tool's guide to familiarize yourself with the process. You may also want to join #wikipedia-en-accounts on irc and the mailing list.

PlaneShift

I think I generally agree with your points at Talk:PlaneShift (video game). However, I think it make us (and the project) look bad when you tell another editor to "suck it up". Especially now that the hostility and accusations are dying now, I feel it's best for all of us to keep our cool and build some bridges so that we can all work on the article collaboratively.

Vandalism

Thanks for cleaning up the vandalism on my talk page, unfortunately I left a talkback on the vandals page before I realised you cleaned up their mess - oh well might have to get one of those user page vandalism counters. --Wintonian (talk) 09:28, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Re:Warning vandals

I knew that. I didn't warn them because you EC'd my warning and the job was done. I know you were being nice, but you templated a regular there. I do believe I know how to warn vandals! Thanks, though. 2D Maestro ^{Who's Jake?} 13:36, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Sorry

hi, Mr.stalker.

Sorry for putting up external link that violated Wikipedia's terms & Conditions.

I am hearty sorry for that. I didn't mean to advertise or promote this website, just wanted to help other users of Wikipedia. Again,I am sorry for what i did.

Re:BGE2

Hey there. My source is here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=22069509&postcount=77 (it's the thread that actually started before most English-based gaming websites started to post articles about this conference). If you don't think this is a credible source, can you point me to an article that actually says anything multiple endings and interactive storyline? I think it's a bit absurd that you ask me to provide source, but the cited source (Eurogamer article) actually doesn't mention anything about endings and storyline. Let's not spread this rumor. wlodi (talk) 22:02, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Hmm... okey, fair enough. I could have sworn that the Eurogamer article mentioned this before, seems like they've updated it. An article on Destructoid does mention this, but they use the NeoGAF thread as source so... anyway, it's fixed now. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. --MrStalker ^(talk) 07:54, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I guess they might have updated it then. I wonder if any news outlet actually tried to translate Ancel's speech from French. I wish I knew French so I could understand what Ancel and Heral say in this conference ;) I'm glad these two guys are working on Rayman Origins together. It seems that Ancel is also doing Tintin video game, this could be the second secret project Heral mentioned (we only know Ubi Montpelier is working on this game). By the way, you have some cool userboxes on your page ;) wlodi (talk) 14:32, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
