Good Grief

You just don't seem to get it do you? With Jimbo's page protected I was happy, I was leaving everything alone. Then you had to come along and unprotect it. You'll notice that I went to a lot of trouble to restore the situation, and am happy to do so time and time again if necessary. You will also notice that whilst I was doing that, I was vandalising other articles also, so your point does not stand as it did not keep me occupied. Provided Jimbo's page is protected there will be no other damage to worry about-- 84.64.77.91 02:32, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok then... Feel free to ask me here, or via email if you have any questions and you actually want to contribute. See Wikipedia:Introduction. Until then, then. Prodego ^talk 02:36, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

About this vandal: One of your edit summaries asked someone to make a list of the IPs he used. Please see here. user:hairchrm/list/ip. It is a list. You can use it, I hope it helps. - Hair chr m 02:52, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Arbitration Committee Elections

Hi Prodego.(I was Wikipedier, but my name was recently changed upon request.) Do you know when the next elections for the Arbitration Committee will be? I'm pretty sure I can vote, being that my account is months old, and I made over 500 edits.-- U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. (talk) 01:26, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! And when they said being part of a Wikiproject for the last Board vote requirement, does Wikipedia qualify as that, or is it an area in articles, such as a Wikiproject for sports, schools, etc.?-- U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. (talk) 20:21, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey Prodego...

Would you be so kind as to find out what happened to my Template:User Love New Zealand, or at least lead me in the direction to finding out what happened to it? Thanks. - Bagel7 09:47, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and also File:Hate Lost.jpg? Thanks again. - Bagel7 09:50, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I did not upload that image, I was just wondering. And, yes, I'll ask Picaroon. Thanks for helping me out, and, yes, next time I'll use Special:Log. - Bagel7 15:00, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

The toolbar buttons on cawiki don't work with Mac, do you know why does it happen? Pasqual (ca) · CUT 12:51, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Vandal Proof

VandalProof

Hey,

I was recently declined for vandalproof because I have "little experience vandal fighting." I can underand your reasoning behind this, but I applied for vandalproof so I could start vandal fighting. Does that not make sense? I hate being a prick like this, but the reason I wanted to use vandalproof was to fight vandalism. I know its probably really annoying when people personally re-ask you, and I want to let you know that I am not... mad? (cant think of the word), by your decision, and I dont want to be accepted out of pity, I am just asking you to reconsider for the things that I have said.

Thanks

My scripting

Could you please tell me what I can delete from this script to keep just the alert? Thanks, «razorclaw» 22:30, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I guess so... «razorclaw» 23:02, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I know. I've got a different script that needs attention. What can be cut off this script? User:Razorclaw/extraeditbuttons.js. Regards, «razorclaw» 23:07, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I know the redirect & table popups don't need to be in there, but when I remove them the script stops working. Example: When I remove the script from

 //  table

to but not including

}; 
    };

. The script does not work any more. I just want to keep the warning and welcome buttons. Nothing else. «razorclaw» 15:43, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

User list corruption

When I try to log into VP, I get an error message reading "The user list is corrupt. Please contact a moderator to have it repaired." Can you repair the list? ~  Magnus animum   ^∫ φ _γ 02:14, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

That's just it. I am using v1.36, but let me re-download the executable just to see. ~  Magnus animum   ^∫ φ _γ 12:57, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Now the program's saying that I'm not approved to use VP. Oh wait, I have been renamed from Steptrip to Magnus animum, so can you change my name on the Approved list? ~  Magnus animum   ^∫ φ _γ 13:24, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Can i ask you something please?

there has been a wikipedia user, i think his user name is 'davard', i'm not sure if he is an administrator...but he has been picking on me lately..and has took it upon himself to edit, my user page,to send me accusations, and messages of me getting blocked, for consistent vandalism, which i find, unapparent..can you please help me, and talk to this person, who says that my edits are inappropriate, he removed the infobox on my user page which says this 'this user is a member of vandalproof', and said "i shouldn't act,or impersonate information that is untrue, and this could therefore lead to being temporarily or even permanently blocked'..please, can you reason with this wikipedia user.thank you, i hope it's not too much hastle. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wongdai ( talk • contribs) 10:31, 1 May 2007 (UTC).

Question and Thanks

Thanks for fixing my monobook. I also have a question. I meet the requirements for VP but, I haven't recieved any feedback after asking for approval 24 hrs ago. Thanks, -- Pupster21 Talk To Me 20:20, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

I will go through the list now. Prodego ^talk 20:24, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for approving me!

Too bad downloads are disabled on my computer... But I am approved! I don't know what to do though... Regards, «razorclaw» 20:39, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Nope. I don't have those. What I mean by files is certain files. Somehow I can get image files but nothing else. Again, thanks for approving me. «razorclaw» 20:45, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I found the issue: My WinZip program (the one I use for VP & AWB) has expired. «razorclaw» 15:11, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks For Your Response

Thank You For responding To My Application For VandalProof. Lukecarpenter169 15:33, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

VP help

Thanks for authorising me to use VP. I've downloaded and installed it, signed in to WP via Internet Explorer (though I'm usually a Firefox user) and then tried to run the VandalProff 136.exe file. It brings up a dialog window with my username but no option to insert the password. The 'Log-in to WP' button is greyed out, and when I press the 'Verify Authorization' button get the message 'No privileges found' in the privileges box. Am I doing something wrong? All advice gratefully received! Kim dent brown 12:53, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

You'll need to either log-in via Internet Explorer or click the "Ch" button on the Verify Authorization box in VP. AmiDaniel ( talk) 14:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Same problem occurs. I'm logged in via IE, click the Ch button, enter username and password, click 'verify authorization' and get the 'No privileges found' message in the Privileges box. Any ideas? Kim Dent-Brown 10:36, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

You need to use Ch, enter username and password, then click "Log-in to WP". Then you click Verify. Prodego ^talk 15:27, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I already tried that (among many other combinations!) When I press Ch and enter username and password, hitting 'login to WP' brings up a dialog box saying 'an error has occurred in a script on this page'. If I do this once more I get a similar dialog, following which I appear to be logged in and the 'Authorization' box is no longer greyed out. However presseing it has no effect. Don't worry if this is too obscure and arcane a problem! I'd like to be able to us VP, but it's not the end of the world if I can't... Kim Dent-Brown 21:22, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

If you aren't extracting the zip file to a folder, the application won't funtion-- I just found that out from experience :-) Curran (talk) 02:31, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Okay

Now what? It's all in but how do I open it? And more so how do I get VP in it? Thanks for finding that. Regards, «razorclaw» 21:48, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Still nothing. It still pulls it up as <drum roll>WinZip</drum roll> no matter what I do. :( «razorclaw» 21:58, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

*sighs* Nevermind. I don't really need it. Sorry for bothering you. «razorclaw» 22:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Kyle_Whittingham

Ooops - I'd just been patrolling RFPP and semi'd that for a week. Our decisions clashed so I rolled my changes back out. Sorry! - Alison ☺ 03:23, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

• Prodego, please reconsider your decision not to place semi-protection on the Kyle Whittingham page. The vandalism that has been occurring on that page is constant, patently immature, and offensive. It seems a prime candidate for semi-protection, to assist those of us members trying to keep up with the persistent vandals. Thanks for your time and consideration on this matter. CincyUte 01:59, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

• Thanks. That's a big help. Take care. :) CincyUte 02:08, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
