Andre is arguably one of the best receivers in the NFL today. As seen here http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/playerpage/396162, it says "Andre Johnson is one of the top receivers in the NFL" also "When he's healthy, he's pretty much unstoppable. " you can also go on youtube and watch NFL Defensive backs say, "He is one of the best receivers in the NFL" and if that doesn't qualify for unbiased I don't know what does. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.0.118.119 ( talk) 05:47, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Thank you for helping edit the Murder of Brian Stidham article. I admit it is not too good yet but I will work on it tomorrow. It does have a lot of references and many more references that I did not list. Acme Plumbing ( talk) 06:13, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

My first level 4 warning of DocKino was preceded by an unproductive pattern of behavior (including uncivil Edit Summaries) and the following three warnings in a 28-hour period: 1 (a 3rr warning) 2 (a level 2 npa warning) 3 (a second 3rr warning). — Jeff G.

The user at 81.70.102.204 has continued to ignore warnings on his talk page and main page. He continues to revert the Ashkenazi Jews article. This seems to be an ongoing problem that has lasted for months now. Can you do anything? - Cyborg Ninja 00:44, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
Wikiproject: Did you know? 02:14, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
Jeff, DocKino is an established editor. Placing templates on his Talk page suggesting such tidbits as that he read "introduction to editing" is just insulting. Your template is also after the fact. He was made aware of why he was blocked, and further corresponence from you about the block is inappropriate. I've removed your message there. If you wish to correspond with DocKino in the future, I suggest you leave the templates at home and type him a constructive message. Please do not continue to harp on the past incidents. -- Andy Walsh (talk) 23:41, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
you're not allowed to create usernames in the format of x.x.x.x, where x is a 1, 2, or 3 digit number because people think they're IP addresses (even if they're not) and block them. one answer is to stick something on front to make it clear it's not an IP address.

I moved the discussion to Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship. It's got less of a crowd but more people who are used to dealing with RFA nonsense. Also, a link is sufficient. No need to copy the text (and more people will ignore it if you do). -- Ricky81682 ( talk) 05:39, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey,
Obviously he is not going to learn from the RFC and is not going to stop. "Yes or no: have you stopped beating your wife?" Is one of his newer comments on the current WP:RFB. I am at a loss of what to do. This is getting to be ridiculous.-- Gordonrox24 | Talk 21:49, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

You sent me a message telling me that I had wrongly edited the Pulp Fiction (Film) article. I believe the only thing I ever edited was the "e" at the end of "Royale with Cheese". I am french and I can tell you that it's written Royal with Cheese, check out the french page for the Royal Cheese. -- Nicoco95310 ( talk) 12:32, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for contacting me on that. Every priority article is being watched by several recent change patrollers at any given moment, who examine every edit made. Therefore, edits merely adding a space character and rearranging tags in a citation template are highly discouraged as they distract RCPers, swell the article history and increase the burden on WP servers. Note also that all priority pages (GAs and alike) are being regularly brushed up using tools such as AWB, which automatically implement most WP formatting policies. I hope as experienced editor you would understand all that and refrain from such edits. Thank you. Materialscientist ( talk) 00:04, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
I recently noticed that you were editing a snake page. There has been an attack in Florida where people from Asain countries have brought Python's as pet's. When they are no longer able to keep them they release them into the wild. These snakes have bred with local snakes also recently an asain python ate a wounded alligator but was attacked by another alligator. The Python blew up with the aligator inside it. The alligator that made the kill left and left the dead animal as a threat to the Asain Python's. Study's show that a war for territory has erupted. Do you wan't to help me make a page on this, or a more discriptive section in the American Alligator Page. -- Schmeater ( talk) 01:56, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
This edit was really pointless. We should not use AWB for this type of pointless edit, or your license to use AWB can be revoked, see Wikipedia:Awb#Rules_of_use.
Apart from that, I would say the protection templates should be above the {{ Otheruses}} template. Debresser ( talk) 11:40, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
I received a note from you, containing the following information:
Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to the page Talk:Marriage at Cana has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive.

Your reversion of edits to Unforgiven on Aug 9th were without merit, and have had a deleterious effect on the quality of this article. Improvements in grammar, sentence structure, etc. do not require citation, and the only reliable source would be any standard book on English grammar. One of the passages your ineffectual edit reinserted was this: "After a twenty second glare into Little Bill's beaten eyes". The length of time is completely uncited and lacking any verifiable source. Where is the proof that exactly 20 seconds elapsed? It seems to violate NPOV to call Little Bill's eyes "beaten". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.162.11.237 ( talk) 17:42, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi Jeff. I got a message from you just now saying that I vandalized the page on Stevie Ray Vaughan. I'm not sure what you think vandalism is, but as far as I can tell, I don't consider that "vandalism". And every time I go to edit the page, someone deletes it.

Please take care when using Huggle to rollback things, especially in cases where the edits you are rolling back are not eggregious and obvious vandalism. This edit here: [4] appears to be a good faith edit; and as such rather than merely rolling it back, you should make an effort to explain in the edit summary why it is being reverted AND should make some effort to engage the user that made it in discussion where you clearly explain why their edit is being reverted. Rolling back good faith edits without explanation, even if they should be reverted, is not in best practices, and can result in your rollback privileges being revoked. Please take care in the future when using tools like Huggle that you only use them as intended, and avoid biting the newbies when you do so. -- Jayron 32 02:39, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
