Thanks

Thanks for catching my browser bug on that revert. Normally I check to make sure the end is still there, but I forgot this time. I'll see if I can exorcise the bug so the potential problem stops coming up. Thanks, William Pietri 14:48, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Problem solved; it's the Google Toolbar extension[1]. Thanks for prodding me to investigate. William Pietri 18:37, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

RFA thanks

T-Man Ban

I DEMAND his immediate ban. He just reverted my work in List of Batman: The Animated Series episodes in its entirety, with complete disregard for naming conventions, and a complete disregard of my edits for consistency of "Part One" and "Part I" (he of course being all over the map on this). DOES HE GET TO OWN THIS PAGE? If so, then Wikipedia is a pathetic excuse for a resourse. I HAVE HAD IT WITH THIS BOOR. He is a complete waste of everyone's time. Why do we put up with this??? And how long does he get to defame me with impunity on his talk page? I DEMAND that all mentions of my by him be deleted NOW!!!! -- Dyslexic agnostic 07:31, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Repeated vandalism by at least one anonymous user.

List of main characters in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends has been repeatedly attacked with vandalism yesterday and today, particularly in the Wilt section. The article's History proves this. Please do something about the attacks. I believe the anonymous users are linked given the nature of their "contributions." --Juigi Kario (Charge! * My crusades) 18:24, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

T-Man out of control

Your "mentee" T-Man, on top of his usual antics, is now accusing me of having a sock puppet, at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Dyslexic agnostic. He continues to place personal attacks against me, at User talk:T-man, the Wise Scarecrow/Vandalism & Harassment, a page I have asked to have deleted repeatedly. And his spelling is atrocious... one of many examples is "Image:Fire From Olimpus.jpg"... I mean, the correct spelling is in from of his nose, on the image itself! Please rein him in. -- Dyslexic agnostic 01:50, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

To add to the above, T-Man has been acting inappropriately at Talk:List of Justice League episodes#Comments deleted, a page he was previously banned from. I am advising his mentors rather than engage him directly, to avoid further agression and hostile responses. -- Dyslexic agnostic 17:12, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Taken care of. Incidentally, it was rather silly to post this here — Shanel won't see it for some time, by which the problem would most likely have been resolved (as it has been).--SB | T 06:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Deletion of Lukas Rossi article

Hello. I just wanted to say thanks for jumping on the speedy so quickly for that article. I figured that something that defamatory should have a source and I didn't see anything about it on a web search. I also removed a reference to it from Lukas Rossi. Is it appropriate to warn the user who posted this, or welcome them and include a note about sourcing statements, or is it just best to leave it alone? Regards --Brian G (Talk) 03:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

access to #wikipedia-en-admins

Hi Shanel, How do I get access to #wikipedia-en-admins (I am an an admin), thanks. Herostratus 19:36, 31 August 2006 (UTC) Er, my user name is Herostratus...

• Hmmm. I am new to IRC. I can get on #wikipedia and #wikipedia-en with no problem, but when I go to #wikipedia-en-admins, it says "you need to be invited", so I type "/msg chanserv invite #wikipedia-en-admins", which it replies with "your nickname is not registered". The help says that the syntax for registering is "REGISTER <password>". Typing REISTER and my desired password brings no result. Is there a password for this that I need to get from you, or is my syntax wrong, or what? Thanks! Herostratus 04:15, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Seriously, dude...

It really was a really, really, REALLY gay article. That's a fact, man, not my opinion. The article was copied and pasted from an ad or PR article or some shit, therefore I deleted it and simply noted that it was a really, really, REALLY gay article.

You need to look at the world a little differently. Listen to "Do Re Mi" by Nirvana and get back to me.

re: blocking of IP 199.43.172.254

Good morning. You have been involved in the periodic blocking of this IP. See block log. If I'm counting correctly, this IP has been blocked 26 times before (after eliminating the temporary unblocks and reblocks). I gather from your temporary unblocks that you sometimes edit from this IP. Given the pattern of vandalism and the recurrence despite repeated warnings, I have put an extended block on this IP. I believe that I have put the block on using the new "anon-only" feature so hopefully it will have no impact on you or other signed in users. And of course, all the anons can still read the encyclopedia in order to do their needed research. Please let me know if there are any unintended consequences of this block. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 15:14, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

The attacks on the FHFIF character pages never end.

Vandalism continues hitting it/them. I am reporting this guy without mercy because I am not in a pleasant mood.

Revert of vandalism, to the last version by 67.161.105.177 They keep on continuing. I petition for the page to be Protected, or at least something done about 75.24.220.149 and 12.73.33.171 (who are the vandalists responsible for the vandalism that I just got rid of). --Juigi Kario (Charge! * My crusades) 03:19, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

OK, I got #wikipedia-en-admins to recognize me (I think), but entering "/msg chanserv invite #wikipedia-en-admins" returns the message "An access level of [5] is required for [INVITE] on #wikipedia-en-admins" from ChanServ. So how do I set my access level to 5? thx Herostratus 05:56, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

That was left on your user page Shanel. KOS | talk 07:14, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Re your message ("him being a sock of a banned user.") User:Pynopoulous edit history does not look good at all, but just be careful of speculation without any solid proof when dealing indefinite blocks. --ElectricEye (talk) 03:11, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

WP:UWLS

Hi,

You are down as a member of the WikiProject on user warning layout standardisation. I and a number of editors for the last couple of months have been working on the harmonisation of the current warning message templates, at WP:UW. I have spoken to a couple of other members of your project, and I would like to merge it and it's talk pages with ours. If you still have interest in the project or would like to participate or have any thoughts on the combined projects please let me know. Any other problems don't hesitate to give me a shout. Regards Khukri ^{(talk . contribs)} 10:56, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

A request for assistance

Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. Bzuk 05:02 3 January 2007 (UTC).

Blocked.

I was told by the Contact Wikipedia page that one was to either e-mail the administrator who blocked them or contact them on their talk page.

While I do not have an IRC channel, I figured contacting here would be the best way. I am the user currently in charge of the IP address 4.249.108.83, which you blocked. I'm not sure why it was blocked, as I've only used Wikipedia to read entries. The only entry I ever edited was one on Air Force One, and that was to change a mistake of the location of Andrews Air Force Base. As for that edit, it is because I live near the base myself and know the area well. If this is the reason for my banning, then I would say you're two years behind schedule.

I haven't hurt anyone, and I'm not around the Internet nearly enough to edit any pages, so giving myself my own login wouldn't be necessary.

I would appreciate if someone resolved the matter of my blocking, please.

Regards, K.I.

Iona Prep Article

You didn't clean-up the History section of the Iona Prep article; you vandalized it. I reverted it back to the previous entry.

Followup to Reply on Iona Prep Article

You have to learn to speak for yourself. I entered the information on the Iona Prep football team. I am an alumnus of the school and am an historian on the school's football team. None of the information that I entered was copied from the Iona Prep Web site. If you go to the web site, you will not see any historical data on the Iona Prep football team.

Wikipedia has too many editors who don't know what they're doing.

New direction at WVWP

Hi Shanel, it's been a while, I hope you're OK! Someone made an interesting suggestion at WP:COUNCIL recently which sounds like it would be a good new direction for WP:WVWP.

League of Copyeditors

Dear Cleanup Taskforce member,

I noticed that you've listed yourself as a member who's interested in copy-editing. I'm a member of the League of Copyeditors, a project dedicated to managing the sizable backlog of articles needing a copy-edit. We're always looking for new members, and you'd make a great addition to the project! We've started a participation drive for the remainder of February. If you're interested, you can help clear the backlog by adopting the following goals each week:

• Select an article to copy-edit from the backlog. After your copy-edit, list the article in the ready for final proofread section.
• Select a different article to proofread from the ready for final proofread section.

Thanks, and happy editing! BuddingJournalist 07:39, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

DYK next update -edit conflict

Shanel,

I was just finishing with the DYK update, doing the credits after update — in between that and clearing the page, you added two new entries created by User:KNM. I noted that these were actually expired nominations (from 24 February). I don't go back to things on the expired list when I update, but I have no objections to you returning them to the next update page.

I'm going offline now. (I should have stopped editing 2 hours ago, but I didn't want to see DYK backlogged.)

— ERcheck (talk) 05:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

P.S. You can tell it's time for me to call it a day. I mistakenly put this note on your user page first. — ERcheck (talk) 05:24, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Back for a moment... see you didn't get a chance to see this note. I returned the two nominations as I did not intend to revert your choices. — ERcheck (talk) 12:32, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

South Park DYK

The entry you added to the update page for DYK is not new enough according to the history of both the episode and the season articles. I also couldn't find significant expansion beyond stub status to warrant inclusion. Did I miss something or did you make a mistake?

Concerning your Admin Coaching assignments

Your name is still listed at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Volunteers. The department is heavily backlogged with student's requests for coaches, and we need your help!

Note that the instructions may have changed since the last time you checked, and the department now follows a self-help process...

If you don't currently have a student, or if you believe you can handle another one, please select a student from the request list at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests and contact them. See the instructions on Wikipedia:Admin coaching. Good luck.

If you are no longer available to coach, , please remove yourself from the volunteers list.

Thank you.

WP:UW future?

Hi Shanel,

Sorry for the blatant spam, but you have yourself down as interested at WikiProject user warnings WP:UW. There is a discussion on going here that might be of interest to you about the future of this project. There are two strawpolls on the talk pages and the second one is about the future of the WP:UW project. Now we have the end in sight we are looking at wrapping up the project and merging it with Template messages/User talk namespace WP:UTM and creating a one stop shop for all userspace templates. As you have yourself down as interested in this project we thought you may have some input on this issue, and would like you to visit the discussion and give any thoughts you may have on the matter.

Tony Eveready

Shanel,

You deleted the bulk of the Tony Eveready article. This happened a few weeks ago, by Ryulong. I explained to him why the article was valid as it was, and he restored it. Now you have removed it again. This is getting ridiculous. The following is what I wrote to him. Also, if you still don't think you should revert the article to its original form, then please discuss that with Ryulong.

So you deleted most of this article because it was original research. I disagree with this because most of the information that was deleted is factual information. Here are some examples:

The entire section labeled The "Booyah" Video is all factual. It is a brief synopsis of one of Eveready's most famous films. Would this not count as original research if there was a citation to the video at the end of this section?

The section labeled Eveready's Technique merely explains the derivation and common use of a phrase that was invented largely due to the man that the article is about. This is both relevant and factual.

The section labeled Internet Meme and Beyond is very true. If you looks at popular internet sites that college students share information on, such as Facebook.com and Myspace.com, you will find that many students have joined groups that are based on Tony Eveready. Some examples are the groups "Dig tuh china then tone!", "Freak dat bitch out den tone!" and "Awww Tone." If these sources are cited, will this no longer be original research?

My most important point is that the parts of this article that were deleted are very similar to parts of other articles that are allowed to remain. My main example is the article about the recent film "Snakes on a Plane." The Snakes on a plane article has a section that is a synopsis of the movie, and a section entitled "Internet" which explains the online following that this movie developed. These are basically the same as the Tony Eveready article sections that were deleted. The Snakes on a Plane article even has a section about References in Popular Culture, which is also quite similar to the Internet Meme and Beyond section of the TOny Eveready article.

It seems to me like there is some kind of double standard here, and that you are being overly critical of the Tony Eveready article possibly for personal reasons (ie. you don't like the pornography industry). Are you still sure that you can delete the bulk of this article while leaving so many other articles that have the same 'violation' intact?

Sincerely,

Jeffw245 23:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
