Hi and thanks for fighting the spam on anthracite coal. The spamming editor has been warned and given a short block to think about as he was spamming other articles also. Cheers, Vsmith 11:06, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Dear Khukri,
Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that unfortunately you do not yet meet the 250 mainspace edit requirement. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Gl e n T C (Stollery) 14:06, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi Khukri!
Thank you for helping.
Regards, gabute
Why would you delete this page, it is simply my wish for my friend to be exposed to the rest of the world (casting directors) as an aspiring actor. Also, you have a page on his step-cousin, Bryn Macauley (the voice actress/actress), and it hasn't been deleted, so what's wrong with this one? Also, if you look, Stephen has had an agent and been in a Canadian tire commercial, so he can be considered a young actor (he is 12 years old). Please do not delete the Stephen Morgensten article, it IS encyclopedia material because it has information on an actor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.217.119.166 ( talk • contribs)
If you don't consider the Stephen Morgenstern article a prope article for wikipedia, what can you consider a proper article for Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a Web-based, free-content encyclopedia written collaboratively by volunteers and sponsored by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation. It has editions in roughly 200 different languages (about 100 of which are active) and contains entries both on traditional encyclopedic topics and on almanac, gazetteer, and current events topics. Its purpose is to create and distribute a free international encyclopedia in as many languages as possible. ...
If you want to expand your database, you should have as much information as possible, on anything. And what's wrong with adding one more puny little article about one puny little actor. Wikipedia told me that if I wrote an article about my friend, my article would be accepted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.217.119.166 ( talk • contribs)

Yeah, if I did get a mop, anti-vandalism would be what I'd use it for the most. CAT:CSD also seems to get backlogged at times and I've speedy tagged quite a few articles.

Clearing the issue
Hello, are u paid to edit wiki? how many $ per hour? Anyway, was not aware of the grave seriousness of the user page which is after all the users page! also, there was no explicit warning written on that message by Pifactorial!! Saw nothing wrong in deleting that. Was a little pissed off by the word vandalism. Further I am deleting both your "warnings" because I just now realize as a newbie that some people do take these things seriously even though most bi or multilateral issues are usually biased and routinely changed according to the POV of the dominant identity of the contributor, and as a newbie I can inform you, the guardian angel of wiki that I wont use my editing FUN (it was light hearted fun about how India kicked Paki ass after Pak attacked India in the first place, lol) on serious articles because people take this stuff a little too seriously!!! I do appreciate (more now) the efforts of people trying to seriously make wiki a place of serious integrity. Hope this clears this issue. Peace. And with that understanding I am cleaning off my user page to keep it as a clean clear page. Peace. Actually, this is the first time, just right now, I noticed these features and checked them out!!! Need to chill more. Anyway, bye. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.91.203.71 ( talk • contribs)

If I register now, what about earlier references to my IP? Will the user page and all the other stuff be clean and clear? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.91.203.71 ( talk • contribs)
What nonsense you people perpetrate
Excuse me? What was racist about anything I posted especially about the Indo-Pak war???!!! Wiki should rein people like you in coz you are straining too much at the leashes. Maybe you should grow up a little, especially in the intellect department, to atleast identify what is racist and what isnt. Bye moron. And who gives WARNINGS to people like you and bans them for calling others racist and vandals? Maybe racists and vandals like you who are vandalizing peoples user pages should be banned!!! Power does make some people mad. Vandals like you should have their so called powers removed immediately for you to become sensible again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.91.203.71 ( talk • contribs)

The message you sent regarding vagina was in fact sent from a proxy . We are at a university .. and hence many users have a common ip ,, or maybe it is dynamic.. However messaging to this ip doesn't ensure that the message is recieved by the concerned vandal , as there are as many as 5000 students in the university..
I too strongly condemn the act of amking such nonsensical changes —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.197.115.38 ( talk • contribs)
Hello Khukri,
I see you reverted by edit on the Pliopithecus page, however I have two sources stating that the family Pliopithecidae does indeed belong in the superfamily Hominoidea. First is the Marshall Illustrated Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Animals by Dr. Douglas Palmer and Prof. Barry Cox ( ISBN 3-8290-6747-X), a very good encyclopedia on prehistoric vertebrates. Next is the Paleobiology Database [2]. This database is edited by university professors and institutions, mostly from the University of California (Santa Barbara), and also pretty up-to-date (there is already a Tiktaalik entry [3] while this creature's discovery and description were announced publically in April 2006).
I was going to ask you why you called my edit an 'experiment', but your second message cleared that up. No hard feelings! Jerkov 20:43, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
I guess that's the one problem with having super-vigilant/super-fast editors/admins/bots looking out for vandals. If someone truly vandalizes by accident, they are not given much of a chance to revert their own edits (I think both of our reverts on that kid came < 10 seconds after the offensive edits!) Seidenstud 00:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
I assume this was a mistake, so I removed it from the WP:AIV. If I am wrong, please feel free to readd him. -- Porqin 11:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the revert on my userpage. :) Regards -- Bane s 16:06, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I've actually been keeping track of your correspondence. He's definitely been troublesome, but I'm holding out hope that he's not unintelligent, but simply misinformed. I posted him a comment trying to explain the situation. If this keeps up much longer, we're going to have to take further action to put an end to it once and for all. -- π! 19:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
I can't clear my own old discussion? Thanks for being on top of things with good ol' 69.250.94.172...
The message from Richard Cavell is NOT AN OFFICIAL WARNING, it is a DISCUSSION WITH A WIKIPEDIA MEMBER and I believe I am within my rights to edit it. Please advise if I am not -- the unrelated warning below it remains. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.250.94.172 ( talk • contribs)
Don't mention the counter vandalism. Just got Vandal Fighter today and noticed you were a hotbed... take care. Galactor213 23:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, just a quick question: why did you revert this edit? Seems to be perfectly sensible to me (the IP editor changed the debut and last dates because they were wrong). Sam Vimes 15:18, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
That's ok, I know him.
It was a joke! Plus, how do you know it's not true, and I actually know it to be true? Please put back my changes, I did not vandalize. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.75.187.245 ( talk • contribs)
I removed the wording from the first para as (1) it contradicts the info in the "Trivia" section ; (2) it is arguably not so relevant that it should be included in the initial info on the wrestler; and (3) it is misspelled ("recod-breaking").
It's not nonsense mate, pack it in please. This is a known fact and I've been personally asked by David himself to put it on Wikipedia, ok? Good. Now run along, nothing to see here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.29.42.182 ( talk • contribs)
About the Ark thing. Yeah, sorry man. I've just been reading up a little too much on the problems in the middle east. Im just feeling a bit hot-headed. The wait of the world on my shoulders, etc. My best friend and housemate is a post-graduate of Modern Middle-Eastern History at Manchester University and I keep getting bombarded by infomation. You know most of his teaching faculty are Israeli and 50% of the students were Arabic, along with a few Israelis. He'd take out books from the library and large paragraphs were scribbled out with notes down the side saying stuff like "This is not true because...". Grr. Im just an angry bunny. —Preceding unsigned comment added by False messiah uk ( talk • contribs)
Yes, it's definitely that same vandalbot; I remember seeing it several times in the last few months. Adds a few typos, usually hits the same article several times before moving on.
I can range-block for a short time (I don't like blocking AOL ranges for more than a few minutes, though some of our fellow admins have a heavier hand). Antandrus (talk) 22:16, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
What exactly do you mean by this?
Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Arsène Wenger. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Khukri (talk . contribs) 20:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd like know the reason of reverting my talk page. I'm using static ip and i'd like to have only the recent talk messages in my talk page in order to check it more easily. 144.122.30.134

Oh, boy, after reading your message on my talk page, I burst out laughing - I got this image of myself as a sniper during the Vietnam conflict!! It sounds really morbid, but if you saw me, you'd know why it's funny - I'm not a tough guy (well, girl, really) at all and three quarters of what I'm wearing is pink. Thanks for the laugh (and the consideration) - I'll leave both, though, since the IP did actually blank his talk page three times. Hehe. I'm still giggling... Srose (talk) 19:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for your help. I started reading the guidelines and policies of wikipedia but i still need some advice. I actually sent an e-mail to a supervisor tangotango, but never answered, maybe he/she is too busy. I may sent them to Alex, but i took his time too much. Maybe you have some time to answer them, and i shall greatly appreciate if you do so. Apologizing,
First, i want to edit an article but the paragraph contains some links which is not relevent with the context of the article. Should i remove the links or should i make some explanation statements related with the links (in this case this will lead some irrelevent discussion which has to be done in the discussion page)?
Second, some articles contain POV arguments and POV related references such as blog/forum pages. If this is obvious (like advertising or propaganda statements), is it reasonable to cut them from the article and paste them to the discussion page (of course, stating the reason of removing in the discussion page)?
Third question is about reverting. If a page is somehow vandalised or disputed and if we do not know the latest objective and comprehensive version of it, which copy should be chosen (is it possible to choose one of the earliest versions of it?) or should we rewrite the whole article from the beginning? (if the article is short no problem, if not?)
I shall wait for your answer before going on. Thank you very much. e104421 14:19 (UCT) 31 August 2006
The article is related with Operation Atilla, i already removed the link dated 11:33, 31 August 2006 and added the reason at the discussion section. The link was giving misleading connection to WWII Nazi operation Operation Attila (WW II). The other ones are related with the Turkish Military, although i'm not an army expert and always against army related expeditures, i'm not agree with the subjective statements such as "Turkish Navy is among the strongest in Europe" and also exaggareted figures which reflects POV. Actually, i asked, in general, what should be the procedure? I can always ask your comments all the time but i do want to bore you. For this reason, if you give me some insight or describe the way i should follow, i'll be more confident in editing, cause i strongly agree with the aim and philosophy of Wikipedia and do not want to cause any debate or go into edit war which i disliked at the very beginning. e104421 20:00 (UCT) 31 August 2006
User:82.47.137.35 has again vandalised. I have reverted the change. Please look into the matter.-- Anupamsr| talk | contribs 12:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)\\
Dear Khukri, i read your answers to my questions. Thank you vey much. I started editing more confidently with the insight given by your comments. I also read the reliable sources section of wikipedia.
I did the similar action for the Turkish Language article as you did for the ark of the covenant. Someone put in-parantesis "disputed" for Altaic Language family without giving a relevent source or information. The reference given is to a web page, but linguistics you know is a scientific study. In this case, the reliable sources should be internationally recognized journals (most of them are included in citation index), aren't they? Furthermore, if there is a dispute related with Altaic Language family this should be done in the Altaic Languages discussion page. e104421
I came to this page from the Byzantine empire page, where someone had made some strange alterations and been reverted; thence to the talk page for that user; thence to your page, which begins with some very belligerent remarks.
I can only presume that you get vandalised a lot? If so, you might find it happens less if you are rather less aggressive!
You must be a long-term wikipedian, I presume? But most people are not! Screaming at a newbie making a mistake seems only calculated to provoke retaliation. Won't boasting that you don't give a damn if people are angry make you seem unlikeable?
All this serves only to increase the disesteem in which an increasing number of people hold Wikipedia. Surely? Even IP numbers have feelings... :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.77.109.121 ( talk • contribs)

Hi Khukri. Sorry I have never lived in Heacham, but went there on holiday a couple of years back. I therefore can't get any pictures of the village sign. Good article by the way! James

I guess that's the one problem with having super-vigilant/super-fast editors/admins/bots looking out for vandals. If someone truly vandalizes by accident, they are not given much of a chance to revert their own edits (I think both of our reverts on that kid came < 10 seconds after the offensive edits!)

I assume this was a mistake, so I removed it from the WP:AIV. If I am wrong, please feel free to readd him. -- Porqin 11:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the revert on my userpage. :) Regards -- Bane s 16:06, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I've actually been keeping track of your correspondence. He's definitely been troublesome, but I'm holding out hope that he's not unintelligent, but simply misinformed. I posted him a comment trying to explain the situation. If this keeps up much longer, we're going to have to take further action to put an end to it once and for all. -- π! 19:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
I can't clear my own old discussion? Thanks for being on top of things with good ol' 69.250.94.172...
The message from Richard Cavell is NOT AN OFFICIAL WARNING, it is a DISCUSSION WITH A WIKIPEDIA MEMBER and I believe I am within my rights to edit it. Please advise if I am not -- the unrelated warning below it remains. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.250.94.172 ( talk • contribs)
Don't mention the counter vandalism. Just got Vandal Fighter today and noticed you were a hotbed... take care. Galactor213 23:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, just a quick question: why did you revert this edit? Seems to be perfectly sensible to me (the IP editor changed the debut and last dates because they were wrong). Sam Vimes 15:18, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
That's ok, I know him.
It was a joke! Plus, how do you know it's not true, and I actually know it to be true? Please put back my changes, I did not vandalize. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.75.187.245 ( talk • contribs)
I removed the wording from the first para as (1) it contradicts the info in the "Trivia" section ; (2) it is arguably not so relevant that it should be included in the initial info on the wrestler; and (3) it is misspelled ("recod-breaking").
It's not nonsense mate, pack it in please. This is a known fact and I've been personally asked by David himself to put it on Wikipedia, ok? Good. Now run along, nothing to see here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.29.42.182 ( talk • contribs)
About the Ark thing. Yeah, sorry man. I've just been reading up a little too much on the problems in the middle east. Im just feeling a bit hot-headed. The wait of the world on my shoulders, etc. My best friend and housemate is a post-graduate of Modern Middle-Eastern History at Manchester University and I keep getting bombarded by infomation. You know most of his teaching faculty are Israeli and 50% of the students were Arabic, along with a few Israelis. He'd take out books from the library and large paragraphs were scribbled out with notes down the side saying stuff like "This is not true because...". Grr. Im just an angry bunny. —Preceding unsigned comment added by False messiah uk ( talk • contribs)
Yes, it's definitely that same vandalbot; I remember seeing it several times in the last few months. Adds a few typos, usually hits the same article several times before moving on.
I can range-block for a short time (I don't like blocking AOL ranges for more than a few minutes, though some of our fellow admins have a heavier hand). Antandrus (talk) 22:16, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
What exactly do you mean by this?
Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Arsène Wenger. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Khukri (talk . contribs) 20:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
are you aware of the changes I made to this page? please review and apologise Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.181.247.6 ( talk • contribs)
I'd like know the reason of reverting my talk page. I'm using static ip and i'd like to have only the recent talk messages in my talk page in order to check it more easily. 144.122.30.134
OK all looks good now. I have you on watch so any probs I'll see them. Cheers and have fun.

Oh, boy, after reading your message on my talk page, I burst out laughing - I got this image of myself as a sniper during the Vietnam conflict!! It sounds really morbid, but if you saw me, you'd know why it's funny - I'm not a tough guy (well, girl, really) at all and three quarters of what I'm wearing is pink. Thanks for the laugh (and the consideration) - I'll leave both, though, since the IP did actually blank his talk page three times. Hehe. I'm still giggling... Srose (talk) 19:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Just to inform you I was in the sandbox and no I did not put anything up about Stock Brockers. I personally don't even have websites in any kind of reference with Stock Brokers.

Hi, thank you for your help. I started reading the guidelines and policies of wikipedia but i still need some advice. I actually sent an e-mail to a supervisor tangotango, but never answered, maybe he/she is too busy. I may sent them to Alex, but i took his time too much. Maybe you have some time to answer them, and i shall greatly appreciate if you do so. Apologizing,
First, i want to edit an article but the paragraph contains some links which is not relevent with the context of the article. Should i remove the links or should i make some explanation statements related with the links (in this case this will lead some irrelevent discussion which has to be done in the discussion page)?
Second, some articles contain POV arguments and POV related references such as blog/forum pages. If this is obvious (like advertising or propaganda statements), is it reasonable to cut them from the article and paste them to the discussion page (of course, stating the reason of removing in the discussion page)?
Third question is about reverting. If a page is somehow vandalised or disputed and if we do not know the latest objective and comprehensive version of it, which copy should be chosen (is it possible to choose one of the earliest versions of it?) or should we rewrite the whole article from the beginning? (if the article is short no problem, if not?)
I shall wait for your answer before going on. Thank you very much. e104421 14:19 (UCT) 31 August 2006
The article is related with Operation Atilla, i already removed the link dated 11:33, 31 August 2006 and added the reason at the discussion section. The link was giving misleading connection to WWII Nazi operation Operation Attila (WW II). The other ones are related with the Turkish Military, although i'm not an army expert and always against army related expeditures, i'm not agree with the subjective statements such as "Turkish Navy is among the strongest in Europe" and also exaggareted figures which reflects POV. Actually, i asked, in general, what should be the procedure? I can always ask your comments all the time but i do want to bore you. For this reason, if you give me some insight or describe the way i should follow, i'll be more confident in editing, cause i strongly agree with the aim and philosophy of Wikipedia and do not want to cause any debate or go into edit war which i disliked at the very beginning. e104421 20:00 (UCT) 31 August 2006
User:82.47.137.35 has again vandalised. I have reverted the change. Please look into the matter.-- Anupamsr| talk | contribs 12:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)\\
Dear Khukri, i read your answers to my questions. Thank you vey much. I started editing more confidently with the insight given by your comments. I also read the reliable sources section of wikipedia.
I did the similar action for the Turkish Language article as you did for the ark of the covenant. Someone put in-parantesis "disputed" for Altaic Language family without giving a relevent source or information. The reference given is to a web page, but linguistics you know is a scientific study. In this case, the reliable sources should be internationally recognized journals (most of them are included in citation index), aren't they? Furthermore, if there is a dispute related with Altaic Language family this should be done in the Altaic Languages discussion page. e104421
I came to this page from the Byzantine empire page, where someone had made some strange alterations and been reverted; thence to the talk page for that user; thence to your page, which begins with some very belligerent remarks.
I can only presume that you get vandalised a lot? If so, you might find it happens less if you are rather less aggressive!
You must be a long-term wikipedian, I presume? But most people are not! Screaming at a newbie making a mistake seems only calculated to provoke retaliation. Won't boasting that you don't give a damn if people are angry make you seem unlikeable?
All this serves only to increase the disesteem in which an increasing number of people hold Wikipedia. Surely? Even IP numbers have feelings... :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.77.109.121 ( talk • contribs)
Hi — as you seem to be on vandal patrol right now, please keep an eye out for vandalism from IPs beginning with 219 — there have been a series of vandalims from that range from NETVIGATOR network. This is applies to the IP who left you a "thank you" for your warning messages. — ERcheck ( talk) 15:50, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for watchin' out. =) gavindow 16:43, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Wouldn't mind at all -just FYI, I just gave him another 3 for editing the name of the principle, so a 4 might be in order. -- Mnem e son 19:48, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
While I was considering, this user has vandalized again and been blocked, so the issue is moot. Thanks for the contact, and I'm glad this user has been blocked (at least for the time being). Dar-Ape 21:11, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Hi Khukri. Sorry I have never lived in Heacham, but went there on holiday a couple of years back. I therefore can't get any pictures of the village sign. Good article by the way! James
Hehe, yup, I've been working busily for the past few days, but now that's over - except I go back to school tomorrow, so goodness knows how frequently I'll be around!! Nice to hear from you again! :) Srose (talk) 21:18, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
...I needed to have someone tell me that, I'm spending way too much time watching recent changes for nastiness as though I'm some kind of morality police... sometimes I have to laugh at myself. Thanks for the barnstar, and keep up the good work! I'm back to editing articles now. :-) Antandrus (talk) 21:35, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
