Thanks for the NPOV correction. I've been trying to work with the page for some time, and it seems that IPs just keep dropping in press-release style stuff on a monthly basis. Mbisanz ( talk) 08:15, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
I do realise that the username blatantly attacks Chris G ( talk · contribs), however, AIV isn't UAA. He has been blocked, but I just felt that it really wasn't necessary to report; 2 edits to Canberra, an article unrelated to Chris G, to me just don't "indicate a vandalism-only account".

For the cleanup of vandalism of my userpage. Martijn Hoekstra ( talk) 13:03, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Good work at AIV, where I've seen a few of your reports today on my travels. However, but I too am uneasy about the "you've been reported" warning you've been leaving - I knew that a similar template had been deleted in the past, and then I found the link to it on this talk page! My worry is that it could encourage some vandals to go on the rampage before they're blocked (which, if AIV is backlogged, could take some time). Another point, whilst I'm here, is that shared IPs will often change user, and so a "final warning" from a couple of days ago wasn't necessarily issued to the same individual as the one currently vandalising e.g. Special:Contributions/24.63.198.207. If there's a history of vandalism from the shared IP, of course, I'd be inclined to start the warnings higher up than level 1, but personally I wouldn't find it necessary to jump straight in with an AIV report. Other wise, carry on! Regards, Bencherlite Talk 13:58, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi Excirial,
I noticed that you reverted my recent edit, which had me restoring a long-standing inline comment in the Wikicode that another user had removed, to Super Mario Galaxy. Given that the edit was marked as minor and my purpose for restoring the (invisible) comment was explained clearly in the edit summary, I was just wondering if I had missed a discussion somewhere about inline comments not being appropriate or what have you that led you to revert my change. Thanks! -- jonny-mt( t)( c) Tell me what you think! 14:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey, be a little bit careful when you're reporting to AIV. In the last hour or so here you've reported two vandals as editing past their final warnings without that being true. Here you reported one at 13:44 who was only given the final warning by you at 13:44 and hasn't edited since just before the warning at 13:33. This one you reported at 13:15 as breaking the final warning but the final was issued at 13:15 by you and the editor hasn't edited since 13:14.
You look like you do a good job with the AIV and recent changes patrol, but just keep an eye out so that you're not reporting inappropriately like that. Thanks and keep up the work, Metros ( talk) 14:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a
neutral point of view. A contribution you made to
Mix FM (Malaysia) appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our
core policies. Thank you.

Hi Excirial! Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I see you've started doing your own development - I wondered when you would. I've a couple of ideas I'd like to bounce off you. One is to ditch all the hard-coded trusted users and use a PHP query to pull each registered editor's contribution count; any editor with over, say, 200 edits can probably be trusted. The other is to get MediaWiki rollback working for non-admins who've been granted the authority. Either I'm missing something enormous, or this simply doesn't, and can't, work at the moment. Comments please. Philip Trueman ( talk) 14:05, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

It should be simple enough to do so, so if you feel like it / like the design, go ahead and use them :). Excirial ( Talk, Contribs) 21:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I've indicated three publications which have noted the organization. You have the article listed for speedy deletion for non-notability. I could definitely see where you might propose an AfD as controversial, but the A7 criteria for speedy deletion seems a bit of a stretch. Please comment at the article's talk page. ClaudeReigns ( talk) 15:43, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi. I just wanted to let you know I removed the speedy tag on this article because Google actually backed up the text of the stub enough that I didn't think speedy applied, although of course you may want to AfD it. On an unrelated note, I noticed your generous offer above re: your user page layout. If you don't mind, I'd also be interested in borrowing it - mine looks like this, and could only be helped.

Thanks for your polite and positive message. Receive my best wishes of good health and prosperity. MusiCitizen ( talk) 20:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, I declined the speedy on this one because, poorly written though the article is it doesn't meet the A1 criterion. This states that A1 (nonsense) is suitable for:
an unsalvageably incoherent page with no meaningful content. This does not include: poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, vandalism, fictional material, material not in English, badly translated material, implausible theories, or hoaxes of any sort; some of these, however, may be deleted as vandalism in blatant cases.
I suggest you either Prod or AfD the article instead. I realise that there's no way it would survive AfD and this may seem an academic exercise, but A1 is really only for articles that read "gdhfdtwer74587trgkjnw5-98456" and the like. Best wishes, Kim Dent-Brown (Talk) 21:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I've declined this speedy: a quick Google search shoes he seems to be notable [4] and I'm sure sources can be found. I've put an {{unreferenced}} tag on the article, if it doesn't improve you can always take it to AfD. Or better - add the references yourself! I've done this quite a few times with articles with Asian subjects, it strikes a blow against systematic bias. Kim Dent-Brown (Talk) 13:19, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Fictional works cannot be deleted as not notable under speedy. A non notable book that nobody will seriously defend can be listed at Prod, but otherwise a violation of NOT PLOT is always subject to debate, and has to go to AfD. But an even better course is to see if the people working on it can expand it further. DGG ( talk) 01:17, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Hiya. I've blocked one of the four names you listed, but have removed the other three. The username policy does state that whilst use of a company or group name as a username is not explicitly prohibited, it is not recommended, and depending on the circumstances may be seen as a problem. In this instance, the two of the users have no edits, deleted or otherwise, and the third has one edit unrelated to their username. I think that blocking might be a bit bitey, so would suggest you discuss their names with them in the first instance by using the {{ uw-username}} template on their talk page. Any problems or questions, leave me a message. Thanks! GB T/ C 11:44, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

This article was deleted less than a minute after it was put up, despite the fact that included sources such as the article in Investor's Business Daily http://biz.yahoo.com/ibd/080115/issues.html?.v=1 that raises the fact that some might be unconfortable with a president who has a half-brother who self-identifies as a fundamentalist Muslim.

I have to admit that whilst his contributions are greatly appreciated to the project that his writing isn't the best. Many of his articles are hard to read, or may require cleanup and he doesn't bother to use stub categories on his short articles on various religious figures. Yet as an admin his pages are automatically marked as patrolled. I don't see why admin automatically should have their pages patrolled as there are many editros who don't want to be admin and consistently add useful content ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:40, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
I know it would have saved a lot of effort by a number of us. Given that the infoboxes are copied from french wikipedia I'm certain it could have been done first time by a bot and with infoboxes too. But it's mostly done now. I'll keep it in mind for the future! Its boosted my contributions somewhat anyway!!! Today I've been adding infoboxes and maps to Category:Cities in Guatemala. A few weeks back I created over 100 missing locator maps so places in every country can have a nice push pin locator using coordinates!! It really makes a difference.

Good work at AIV, where I've seen a few of your reports today on my travels. However, but I too am uneasy about the "you've been reported" warning you've been leaving - I knew that a similar template had been deleted in the past, and then I found the link to it on this talk page! My worry is that it could encourage some vandals to go on the rampage before they're blocked (which, if AIV is backlogged, could take some time). Another point, whilst I'm here, is that shared IPs will often change user, and so a "final warning" from a couple of days ago wasn't necessarily issued to the same individual as the one currently vandalising e.g. Special:Contributions/24.63.198.207. If there's a history of vandalism from the shared IP, of course, I'd be inclined to start the warnings higher up than level 1, but personally I wouldn't find it necessary to jump straight in with an AIV report.

Hey Excirial, I see you a lot at RC patrol. You're definitely one of the finest vandal fighters I've come across. I'd give you a barnstar but it's too clichéd.

Hi Excirial,
I noticed that you reverted my recent edit, which had me restoring a long-standing inline comment in the Wikicode that another user had removed, to Super Mario Galaxy. Given that the edit was marked as minor and my purpose for restoring the (invisible) comment was explained clearly in the edit summary, I was just wondering if I had missed a discussion somewhere about inline comments not being appropriate or what have you that led you to revert my change. Thanks! -- jonny-mt( t)( c) Tell me what you think! 14:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey, be a little bit careful when you're reporting to AIV. In the last hour or so here you've reported two vandals as editing past their final warnings without that being true. Here you reported one at 13:44 who was only given the final warning by you at 13:44 and hasn't edited since just before the warning at 13:33. This one you reported at 13:15 as breaking the final warning but the final was issued at 13:15 by you and the editor hasn't edited since 13:14.
You look like you do a good job with the AIV and recent changes patrol, but just keep an eye out so that you're not reporting inappropriately like that. Thanks and keep up the work, Metros ( talk) 14:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a
neutral point of view. A contribution you made to
Mix FM (Malaysia) appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our

Hi Excirial! Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I see you've started doing your own development - I wondered when you would. I've a couple of ideas I'd like to bounce off you. One is to ditch all the hard-coded trusted users and use a PHP query to pull each registered editor's contribution count; any editor with over, say, 200 edits can probably be trusted. The other is to get MediaWiki rollback working for non-admins who've been granted the authority. Either I'm missing something enormous, or this simply doesn't, and can't, work at the moment. Comments please. Philip Trueman ( talk) 14:05, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

It should be simple enough to do so, so if you feel like it / like the design, go ahead and use them :). Excirial ( Talk, Contribs) 21:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I've indicated three publications which have noted the organization. You have the article listed for speedy deletion for non-notability. I could definitely see where you might propose an AfD as controversial, but the A7 criteria for speedy deletion seems a bit of a stretch. Please comment at the article's talk page. ClaudeReigns ( talk) 15:43, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi. I just wanted to let you know I removed the speedy tag on this article because Google actually backed up the text of the stub enough that I didn't think speedy applied, although of course you may want to AfD it. On an unrelated note, I noticed your generous offer above re: your user page layout. If you don't mind, I'd also be interested in borrowing it - mine looks like this, and could only be helped.

Thanks for your polite and positive message. Receive my best wishes of good health and prosperity. MusiCitizen ( talk) 20:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, I declined the speedy on this one because, poorly written though the article is it doesn't meet the A1 criterion. This states that A1 (nonsense) is suitable for:
an unsalvageably incoherent page with no meaningful content. This does not include: poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, vandalism, fictional material, material not in English, badly translated material, implausible theories, or hoaxes of any sort; some of these, however, may be deleted as vandalism in blatant cases.
I suggest you either Prod or AfD the article instead. I realise that there's no way it would survive AfD and this may seem an academic exercise, but A1 is really only for articles that read "gdhfdtwer74587trgkjnw5-98456" and the like. Best wishes, Kim Dent-Brown (Talk) 21:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I've declined this speedy: a quick Google search shoes he seems to be notable [4] and I'm sure sources can be found. I've put an {{unreferenced}} tag on the article, if it doesn't improve you can always take it to AfD. Or better - add the references yourself!

Fictional works cannot be deleted as not notable under speedy. A non notable book that nobody will seriously defend can be listed at Prod, but otherwise a violation of NOT PLOT is always subject to debate, and has to go to AfD. But an even better course is to see if the people working on it can expand it further. DGG ( talk) 01:17, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Hiya. I've blocked one of the four names you listed, but have removed the other three. The username policy does state that whilst use of a company or group name as a username is not explicitly prohibited, it is not recommended, and depending on the circumstances may be seen as a problem. In this instance, the two of the users have no edits, deleted or otherwise, and the third has one edit unrelated to their username. I think that blocking might be a bit bitey, so would suggest you discuss their names with them in the first instance by using the {{ uw-username}} template on their talk page. Any problems or questions, leave me a message. Thanks! GB T/ C 11:44, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

This article was deleted less than a minute after it was put up, despite the fact that included sources such as the article in Investor's Business Daily http://biz.yahoo.com/ibd/080115/issues.html?.v=1 that raises the fact that some might be unconfortable with a president who has a half-brother who self-identifies as a fundamentalist Muslim.

I have to admit that whilst his contributions are greatly appreciated to the project that his writing isn't the best. Many of his articles are hard to read, or may require cleanup and he doesn't bother to use stub categories on his short articles on various religious figures. Yet as an admin his pages are automatically marked as patrolled. I don't see why admin automatically should have their pages patrolled as there are many editros who don't want to be admin and consistently add useful content ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:40, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
