Re: Question

edit

If the vandal has vandalized more than twice with no warnings, you can give him/her a level-three warning. By the way, please remove the Halo image in your talk page because it violates policy. All the best, Anas talk? 15:36, 9 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

For information on user pages and user talk pages, see WP:USER; it has all the information you need to know. As for fair use, see WP:NFC. —Anas talk? 16:01, 9 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
Would you like me to delete the image? —Anas talk? 16:02, 9 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
You're free to put them wherever you want. You can put them on your user page, in a sub page of your user page, or just leave them on your talk page. —Anas talk? 01:09, 10 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Drew McWeeny

edit

Hi...um...I'm not vandalizing the Drew McWeeny article. Seriously, look at it. It's not written in an encyclopdic way at all right now, and it uses qualifying and biased language. Plus it includes both superfluous informatoin and a triva section, both of which are NOT supposed to be in wikipedia articles. And you're supposed to use a filmography to list his works. Can I make the necessary and appropriate changes or are you guys just going to revert it again? ScreenwriterJeb

I am this user; I forgot to log in. If you notice, I was being constructive in that edit (a simple fact-check would indicate that when Silverman speaks of her boyfriend, she can only be talking about Jimmy Kimmel), and I would like you to consider that people making small anonymous edits may not be vandals. Check the diff properly next time. Thank you. Lockesdonkey 17:49, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Can I ask why you edited my talk page edit on Helen Maria Bayly. I deleted out of date information which I had added myself (from a Talk page!) and added an opinion on the tag on the article wrt the biography project cleanup guidelines.

PLEASE STOP

I have the right to vanish, I do not have the password to the account any longer, this is the third or fourth time someone has done this, please stop, it is my account. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.104.37.17 (talkcontribs)

OK....but you might want to say that in the summary. Peace. Spartan-James 21:05, 13 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

kthx...just frustrating because it hasn't lasted two minutes in the queue before being reverted!

Man, he's stirring up some real trouble now. Let's get him. Savie Kumara 23:30, 13 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

I don't think we're finished with him yet. I think he's stirring up the same trouble on the same articles under the IP address 71.146.64.29. Savie Kumara 00:15, 14 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

This IP address is stirring up some real trouble. I'm fighting him on the Megadeth article. Could you report him while I undo his vandalism? Savie Kumara 00:19, 14 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Understanding anti-vandalism

edit

Don't really understand why you reverted the Buy.com page. This time, I tried to explain in the discussion section why I changed those elements (and i sort of messed up that process). As a first time contributor trying to edit something I know about (have shopped there for years, bought stuff, returned stuff etc.), it weirds me out that an "anti-vandalism" user would undo factually correct improvements. Can't say the page is of excellent quality but at least it's an improvement on what was there. What guidelines do you follow to check information before undoing another user's edit?

Sorry, I forgot to sign this first time around. And I added citations to edits where possible and further explanation is discussion.

Heya bud! I've noticed that the article has a lot of vandal edits from 70.119.x, probably a sockp. What's the best way to handle a situation like this? Alert an admin for a temp block for a range of IP's? - superβεεcat  03:20, 23 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

A request.

edit

I recently checked your contribs. It says you've made 4807 edits! And you've made more than 180 reports to the AIV! It's incredible. I'd like to nominate you for adminship. It would truly be a great thing for Wikipedia if you were an amdmin. Would you like me to nominate you? Cheers, JetLover (talk) 03:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

I second this. :) —DerHexer (Talk) 16:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
WOW... O_O ...thanks! Peace. Spartan-James 16:39, 30 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

There's been some calls to close your RfA, basically to avoid a huge number of opposes: after all, we're not here to hurt your feelings! Let me know - the choice is completely yours ~ Anthøny 21:17, 31 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
Anyone calling for any early close of this RfA other than the nominee needs to have their heads examined. Anyway, question for you on the RfA page. ➪HiDrNick! 21:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I would NOT close it now, you're starting to get more support votes. You MIGHT just win this. Cheers, JetLover (talk) 23:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

You have been rewarded for your efforts

Your RfA

edit

Dear James, I've closed your RfA prematurely as, at 10 supports and double the number of opposes, it was unlikely to succeed. Please do not be discouraged - you've achieved a phenomenal amount in your time here, and I don't doubt that given a few more months of concerted activity, your next RfA will pass extremely well, and you can help out at AIV instead of backlogging it :) Please feel free to approach me should you require anything. Best regards, ~ Riana 09:21, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Just thought I'd stop by to wish you good luck for next time. In general also a few months plus getting a couple of articles to GA or one to FA is very good preparation. Orderinchaos 10:00, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

User talk pages

Fyi: Editors can blank their pages or remove posts on their own pages whenever they want. That isn't vandalism. Please let me know if you have any questions. KillerChihuahua?!? 18:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Rollback

edit
 

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. JamieS93 20:31, 12 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Heh, yeah, it's a wonder. You're very welcome! Best, JamieS93 20:35, 12 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

HOW can you report me for vandalism???

edit

Thanks for the warning, Spartan. Although, I feel it's rather unfair for the pictures I had put to be removed for no reason. I own the copyright to those pictures and had released them to public domain. I was accused of "spamming" the page, but I don't see what I was doing differently from what people do on other pages. For instance, the Starbucks page has about 20 pictures. So, if putting more pictures on this page is "spamming", then why are there so many pictures on Starbucks's page? I had in no way meant to vandalise the page. That was not the intention. I was just undoing the edits that were being done to the page because I felt they were unnecessary and not required. To block me from putting pictures and then calling it vandalism is rather unjust and undemocratic, and also very anti Wikipedia's concept. I would REALLY like you to look into this. Thanks. Gemmifer13 (talk) 19:50, 12 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks!

edit

Thank you! I had no idea we couldn't put that many pictures on a page. I now get it, and haven't tried to put any pictures up since then. And now that I've stopped THAT, someone got the five pictures that were on the page, removed. It's quite frustrating. I've also noticed that people replace perfectly written sentences by sentences that are grammatically incorrect, have wrong spelling etc. That's a bit annoying too. I'm still trying to figure how it all works. Thanks for your help :) Gemmifer13 (talk) 16:57, 14 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
