Some time last night you block my main account of mine for vandal. The situation is I develop new program to combat original software that generates accounts. Here is the data from yesterday's database log of Love Virus:
As you may have gathered, the software generates usernames and uses them to edit any page(s). I know this because I developed the software, and it has been distributed to as many as 20 people. I have tried in cooperation with Linuxbeak to generate a software for him to maybe run to autmatically detect/block accounts. Currently I see you use manual javascript utility. I hope for no more intereereference from you as last night your block interupt the software development.
Yours MARMOT

This page has been recreated on its discussion page by a vandal account which has since been blocked by another admin.

MARMOT here just to let you know that this is a test account so no need to block + there may be a few (5 or 10) usernames registered while I test the new software. This account can be blocked after the test is done.
Thankyou for unblocking me, but could you please explain these reversions here [2]. These alerts were perfectly legitamite to the intent of the wikipedia project page. Also you have reverted a talk page comment here [3] which is completely unjustifiable as we never revert talk page comments unless they are blatant spam.-- God of War 19:59, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi, on this poor person's userpage: Drini someone's been vandalizing and I noticed you fixed it a few days ago.

194.187.32.1 <Neston High School, incase ya don't know ;P -mogster :)
Hello Curps! Could you help me understand your position, why do you think that announcing Alex's RfA vote in progress is the wrong thing to do? It is only a reminder and not in the least a push, nor a specific solicitation for support. There are quite a few users who participate rather actively both in the Russian and the English sectors, so just to let them know of what's an important event... why do you see it as something improper? Perhaps you'd find it possible to reconsider?
But, if it truly is wrong, I am to take the blame -- I am the user ru:User:Bepa, who just recently re-posted the reminder on the village pump in the Russian wiki. I know I could've easily made a mistake -- I am not so experienced a user so may be I am just not aware of an important policy regarding such matters. Thank you for your time in advance. Regards - Introvert ? @ 23:28, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
You have me blocked. Why? -- Jason Palpatine 05:09, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
OK -- let's try this again. I got cut off while I was typing. I was briefly blocked on 2 articles -- and I think you know which ones. But that doesn't matter now.
Yesterday, the tag "{{ Orphaned fairuse not replaced}} to fair use media not linked inline in an article" was applied by you to Image:PigsisPigs0.jpg , an image I had uploded. I originally uploaded the image as a point for discussion.
The following pages linked to this file:
In addition, I tried to insert links to it in the following articles:
• Obesity
These were not inclusion links. I felt that actually including the image in them would be redundant, but I still felt that the image, as a link, was still appropriate. The first time I linked the articles to it, someone (you?) removed them.
After you posted your 7 day warning, I again inserted the links and it just happened again, the links were removed as fast as I included them. You called it vandalism.
Note the closing word in the paragraph -- "explode." The image was a few frames folowing the image that IS includeed in the article under "Popular Culture." Some people felt that the term was invalid. One person who removed the term said that he'd never seen that happen -- I, on the other hand have; three times. The matter was under discussion, so I uploaded the image to illustrate the point -- it was linked to three talk pages, including mine. Since the other related image was in the OBESITY and PIGS IS PIGS (1937) articles, I felt that actually including the second picture would be redundant. I linked it instead as a footnote to the article/paragraph. However, the links were rmoved -- more than once. -- Jason Palpatine 08:40, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
And now the file is now GONE! The flage said it would be deleted AFTER 7 days, it was done after only 1! What's the deal?

I reverted back to the more informative version. I feel that the additional information about the family that owns the mountain is a good piece of the resort's history. I will do my own research to try to support the author's claims when I can, but for the time being I see no reason to assume the claims are untrue. I admit it would be nice if they had cited their source(s). Shaggorama 10:30, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Alrite mate; Thanks for sorting my mess out - I was trying to move Nicholas Wolfe to User:Nicholas Wolfe, after my 'mis-move' but how do you add a divert, so that when somebody types in Nicholas Wolfe, my user page comes up, as it did before? Please get back to me asap, Nick
Curps,
Just wondering why that is the case. Everything there is factual, much like a biography is of any other person on here - I was the United Kingdom's representative at the Global Young Leaders Conference and I continue to be a representative for the UK at international level; it's all fact.
In fact, I'm flying out to UN HQ in Feb to represent this country once again.
Could you please add a divert? Because, even though I am a user, I am also an 'article' if you like. I'm not telling everybody fictional and emotive stuff; it is pure fact as you can see.
Please get back to me asap mate,
Nick
Sigh. You'd think they would learn with a one-month block, but no. I'm trying to understand the ARIN whois output for the IP, but it's not very informative. Want to help? Tito xd( ?!? - help us) 22:14, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Image:Microcebus lehilahytsara -large.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
