I don't see that you or user MBisanz take requiring User:Betacommand to act in a civil manner with any sort of seriousness. He's been allowed to personally attack and stalk me. Apparently he gets dozens more chances than anyone else. Filed. [1] -- IP69.226.103.13 ( talk) 08:54, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Hey Hersfold how are you? Its been long that we corresponded. I have come to you with a bizarre help. Actually I was developing Confessions Tour for GA but found that the infobox template {{ infobox concert tour}} didnot have a provision for Alternate text for the images. Hence I tried adding it but its still not showing up. Will you please help me with it? I don't know what to do to make it work. --Legolas (talk2me) 10:41, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi,
I'd normally have pinged Juliancolton about this (as he was the admin who actually issued the block), but he's on indefinite wikibreak. You declined hAl ( talk · contribs)'s unblock request here; he eventually served his time, and immediately jumped back into tendiciously edit warring against a pretty firm and productive consensus at Office Open XML. Can you have a look? Cheers. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 12:13, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
That is the question that is repeated again here: Talk:Persecution of Falun Gong#Requesting Move. Since you are not an involved editor, would it be possible for you to provide an input? Thank you in advance for your time! -- HappyInGeneral ( talk) 17:37, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
This dispute is getting overly heated and out-of-hand. I have made a suggestion at the above that might begin to resolve it in some way. I'm letting you two know because you're his appointed mentors, and therefore the more appropriate people to enable a resolution Fritzpoll ( talk) 22:58, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
I've implemented your feature request; messing with the watchlist notifier tends to be hard to avoid excessive load on the servers, but the username is luckily one of the pieces of information that's inexpensively available. Note that you should be slightly careful with this feature; if two edits are made to the page in quick succession, or that page is edited and then another page you watch is edited, the notifier will only notify you about the most recent change, so it's always worth looking at your actual watchlist to see what happened. ( Bypass your cache to get the improved script.) Hope that helps! -- ais523 13:36, 3 November 2009 ( U T C)
Is HersfoldOTRSBot working? I see it hasn't edited since September 1st, and I also saw File:Red-tie.jpg which has been pending since August 11th (see also commons:Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard#Image:Red-tie.jpg. Just wondering what's up. Thanks. - Andrew c [talk] 15:05, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
This user is edit warring with me, violating the 3 revert rule and I let him know I do not want to edit war, but still continued. He has already been blocked because of this, late June. Please act quickly. This is going on at: Template:USLargestMetros...Thank-You House1090 ( talk) 03:25, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
I have recently become interested in a position with the WP:ARBCOM Clerks. I would like to know if you would be a mentor for me in this area. I love to stay on top of things, espically here on Wikipedia. I feel that this is my first good chance to really get in and help Wikipedia. Please feel free to comment on how I've done so far, and I love constructive critism. Thanks for considering my request, I hope to be in contact with you soon.

Hi. This edit was caught by the "References removed" tag while it shouldn't. Any idea how to avoid this? -- Magioladitis ( talk) 08:30, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

heya, i have recently been editing the pages of the british boyband A1 and i created a template for the band. when i tried to re-edit it came up that you had indefinitely protected the template for the band back in September 2008. Could you un-protect it please? thanks Mister sparky ( talk) 03:36, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Just an FYI, I appear to have stumbled upon a new sockpuppet at Placid56 ( talk · contribs). The duck appears to be quacking, but I'll let you decide if my suspicion was correct. -- Gogo Dodo ( talk) 00:03, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
You are receiving this message either because you received a similar one before and didn't object, or you requested to receive a similar one in the future.
There is a planning discussion taking place here for DC Meetup #9. If you don't wish to receive this message again, please let me know. --NBahn ( talk) 04:56, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
There is an editor attempting to interact with Betacommand at his talkpage, regarding some actions (tagging, it seems) by Bc on an article page. It seems that the other editors command of English is not what it might be, may not have read or understood the template at the top of Bc's talkpage, and is generally unfamiliar with Bc. I am familiar enough with Bc to know that hoping he will carefully, comprehensively and politely explain himself may not be sufficient. As one of Bc's mentors, I wonder if it would be in your remit to assist in the editors queries before Bc does. I note that you are offline as at my writing this, so I am copying this to MBisanz also.

Hey Hersfold - thanks for the checkuser here. Have a most excellent evening. Flying Toaster 05:24, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
What is the purpose of this edit by HersfoldBot? It appears from the tag requesting the article be copied, and from the BRFA, that the intention is for this bot to be adding the template to articles that are essentially dictionary definitions only, while the article tagged is not a dictionary definition and contains material beyond the wiktionary article. At the time the article was tagged, this was the case, also. Is this bot still running, has someone already noted this issue?

Great to see you running for ArbCom. I was actually wondering if you'd be up for election this year - seeing you around gave me the impression that you'd make a great arbitrator. While I never urge anybody to run for ArbCom (it's obviously a tough job and I personally think people should decide for themselves whether or not to volunteer for it), I wish you good luck and hope you get elected. =) Master&Expert ( Talk) 07:48, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

I just wanted to wish those Wikipedians who have been nice enough to give me a barnstar or smile at me, supportive enough to agree with me, etc., a Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely, -- A Nobody My talk 07:09, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi Hersfold. Could help with this user Radar1X ( talk · contribs)? I almost positive that he's a sock of Nangparbat (passed the duck test). Knowing him he'll probably come back with a new sock almost immediately and start reverting again so if you don't mind semi-protect the pages he's editing. I've informed YellowMonkey already, but he's usually busy and not as active in weekends. Thanks. Elockid ( Talk· Contribs) 16:14, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
