Did you mean to indef-block 49.226.148.229? I suspect that it may not have been your intention to indef-block an IP, and that you intended to set an expiry time, so I thought I'd bring it to your attention. SchuminWeb ( Talk) 08:00, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Jason, Jim Bleak said that I could try a different format for the Internet access dates, so I redid the first one as an example and waited for his input (see talk @ Bxzooo). In doing so, I did not remove the news article's publication date of April 1992. That remained intact. So I do not understand your reversion of what I did, which awaited input from Jim Bleak.

Thanks for putting them up. I enlarged the meetup notice a lot though, because Rich Farmbrough drove to a past meetup from Boston, Lincolnshire, and James F. commuted into another from London! So, I feel that the geonotice needs to include at least those two places, along with all of East Anglia where no other Wikimedia meetup is closer to them than Cambridge. Thanks.

Dear Killiondude
I tried to create a page for Elias Rudolph Camerarius Jr., but wiki says that there was a page by that name before that was deleted by you on 18 July 2011 due to copyvio. Could you restore the article to a subdirectory of my userspace? I will edit it to clean it up and reword it and add new content. Then when you approve, I can move it over to real wiki space.

Thanks, Killion, for updating {{ Include-USGov}} for the sandbox.

Jason, thought you'd be interested in my addition, today, to the article about Clinton, CT's Liberty Green Historic District. I added the study, report and enabling ordinance that created this local district in which my 1726 house is situated. Additionally, I wanted to ask you, as an administrator, to check out what appears to be a new editor (Cookiehead) who posted an box with exclamation point at my bio. I replied to him/her and then with a P.S. made reference to what he/she states at his/her own user page. First, my reply to him/her: "This article was totally accepted by the Editors ages ago. And the only recent edits, which were made in December, were to bring some recently introduced references, made by another editor, into the proper Wikipedia format -- as there were some that 1) mis-stated the Newspaper headline bring cited; 2) had no link on the Internet, to the article being cited, as is required; and 3) mis-stated the & misquoted the content of the article(s) being cited.Bxzooo 19:47, 19 January 2012 (UTC)"; and now the P.S. "Following is what User Cookiehead has to say about him/herself: "I like to go round articles putting {fact} in for minor claims of no controversy whatsoever, because I'm trying to pad my edit counts. It's important to me"; and 2) I like to open up articles with absolutely no sourcing, and make spacing edits to info boxes. Article content be damned." So he/she is merely trying to rack up as many edits as possible with no regard to content. This is NOT what Wikipedia is supposed to be about. I will not quote, here, the remainder of what he/she has to say about him/herself. If you are interested, you can go to Cookihead's user page. Bxzooo 20:16, 19 January 2012 (UTC)" Hope I didn't overstep my bounds, but this person sems to be trying to edit anything and everything just to tote up as many edits as possible. This, to me, is the wrong reason to be a Wikipedia editor. Hope all is well. Bxzooo 21:46, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Killiondude. I see over at Commons that you are an administrator over there, also. This is a situation I don't feel I know enough about to handle directly with the user, so I'm asking for your help. Unregistered User:TxHC has been uploading a lot of images directly onto Wikipedia without uploading them at Commons. Here. The uploads say they were taken in 2009, but they're 2012 uploads. Assuming these are really the work of the user, they're good images that I could use on various lists of museums pages in Texas. I am also noticing as I go down the User Contributions, this editor is also creating NRHP articles with no sourcing. I am needy enough on the images to want them uploaded to Commons without knowing how to address this issue with the editor. But I'm also a little concerned about all these unsourced NRHP articles being created. Do you think this is something you could address to that editor? Please let me know. Maile66 ( talk) 00:42, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
I just read TxHC's reply to you. You're quick - the person is an employee of Texas Historical Commission. Hope you mention to load any photos over at Commons. On the other issue, if you don't know what happened with Hathorn, this is the circumstances of some of it. They got him on some BLP issues. But when this hit, a ton of photos wre also in question, and oodles got deleted. Worth looking into on the Zaragoza photo. Maile66 ( talk) 19:06, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

I've read the link given by you, WP:IINFO. Since it is a directive given by the official website and is reported in a secondary source, I think it does have some weight. Per your argument, I agree the strategies described to spread awareness should be removed, but the fact that the website encourages gardeners to spread awareness should be mentioned. How about this sentence: "WNGD's official website encourages gardeners to spread awareness about this day." A brief mention without going into trivial detail.

I invite you to the yearly Berlin hackathon. It's 1-3 June and registration is now open. If you need financial assistance or help with visa or hotel, just mention it in the registration form.
This is the premier event for the MediaWiki and Wikimedia technical community. We'll be hacking, designing, and socialising, primarily talking about ResourceLoader and Gadgets ( extending functionality with JavaScript), the switch to Lua for templates, Wikidata, and Wikimedia Labs.
Our goals for the event are to bring 100-150 people together, including lots of people who have not attended such events before. User scripts, gadgets, API use, Toolserver, Wikimedia Labs, mobile, structured data, templates -- if you are into any of these things, we want you to come!
I also thought you might want to know about other upcoming events where you can learn more about MediaWiki customization and development, how to best use the web API for bots, and various upcoming features and changes. We'd love to have power users, bot maintainers and writers, and template makers at these events so we can all learn from each other and chat about what needs doing.
Check out the the developers' days preceding Wikimania in July in Washington, DC and our other events.
Best wishes! - Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation's Volunteer Development Coordinator. Please reply on my talk page, here or at mediawiki.org. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator 14:51, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey there :). You're being contacted because you're an edit filter manager, At the moment, we're developing Version 5 of the Article Feedback Tool, which you may or may not have heard about. If you haven't; for the first time, this will involve a free-text box where readers can submit comments :). Obviously, there's going to be junk, and we want to minimise that junk. To do so, we're working the Abuse Filter into the tool.
For this to work, we need people to write and maintain filters. I'd be very grateful if you could take a look at the discussion here and the attached docs, and comment and contribute! Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 18:20, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
Is there any reason you reverted my edit changing "Israel" to "West Bank" in the article on Sacramento, California?
No entity recognizes Bethlehem as part of Israel, not even the Israeli government. The only part of the West Bank whose status as a part of Israel's national territory is disputed is East Jerusalem. As for the rest of the West Bank, including Bethlehem, Israel does not claim it, and it's internationally recognized as part of the Palestinian Territories. Stating that Bethlehem is part of Israel is factually wrong; this is not a POV statement.
If you have a good argument against this, could you state it in the talk page of the article? I made a section there regarding the Bethlehem issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.189.169 ( talk) 23:45, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
Here is the page that the source for Bethlehem and Sacramento being sister cities comes from:
http://www.cityofsacramento.org/SisterCities/bethlehem.htm
You'll note that even this page does not claim that Bethlehem is in Israel, so I see no reason for you doing so. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.189.169 ( talk) 23:50, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

Unregistered User:TxHC has been uploading a lot of images directly onto Wikipedia without uploading them at Commons. Here. The uploads say they were taken in 2009, but they're 2012 uploads. Assuming these are really the work of the user, they're good images that I could use on various lists of museums pages in Texas. I am also noticing as I go down the User Contributions, this editor is also creating NRHP articles with no sourcing. I am needy enough on the images to want them uploaded to Commons without knowing how to address this issue with the editor. But I'm also a little concerned about all these unsourced NRHP articles being created. Do you think this is something you could address to that editor? Please let me know.

I just read TxHC's reply to you. You're quick - the person is an employee of Texas Historical Commission. Hope you mention to load any photos over at Commons. On the other issue, if you don't know what happened with Hathorn, this is the circumstances of some of it. They got him on some BLP issues. But when this hit, a ton of photos wre also in question, and oodles got deleted. Worth looking into on the Zaragoza photo. Maile66 ( talk) 19:06, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
Can you block Hadilovesgaga ( talk · contribs)? Considering this, this, this, this copyvio, and that clearly has no intentions to stop, is enough to being blocked. Tbhotch. ™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 19:55, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
You deleted File:2012 Motorsports Corve69.jp.jpg and File:2012 Motorsports Corve22.jp.jpg. Could you please be more specific about how they did not meet the license requirements? I don't get it. Sabre ball t c 20:40, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

I did see the long message. I guess my frustration comes from how long it took me to add all that stuff and then I wasn't even given the chance to fix it with citations or all that. . . I understand where you're coming from, but it doesn't make it less frustrating. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EJMihelich ( talk • contribs) 22:10, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
I saw you had done some work on heavily-used gadgets. We're trying to start a library for gadget authors to use. Please check it out and post any questions or comments there. -- ☠ MarkAHershberger☢( talk)☣ 01:15, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
I've read the link given by you, WP:IINFO. Since it is a directive given by the official website and is reported in a secondary source, I think it does have some weight. Per your argument, I agree the strategies described to spread awareness should be removed, but the fact that the website encourages gardeners to spread awareness should be mentioned. How about this sentence: "WNGD's official website encourages gardeners to spread awareness about this day." A brief mention without going into trivial detail. What do you think? -- SupernovaExplosion Talk 06:59, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
I tried to assess this article as b-class: Talk:Anastasiya Vertinskaya, but for some reason it shows up as c-class, even though I put a b in the class parameter. I had the same problem here Talk:Polish–Soviet War, where I typed in a b and it showed up as c-class. I asked Greyhood ( User talk:Greyhood#Problem with WP Russia assessments) about it, and he referred me to you. INeverCry 00:39, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Killiondude, I've addressed this same question on my talk page. If you have additional insight or a better solution, please let me know. Cheers,— Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • ( yo?); March 29, 2012; 13:51 (UTC)
I invite you to the yearly Berlin hackathon. It's 1-3 June and registration is now open. If you need financial assistance or help with visa or hotel, just mention it in the registration form.
This is the premier event for the MediaWiki and Wikimedia technical community. We'll be hacking, designing, and socialising, primarily talking about ResourceLoader and Gadgets ( extending functionality with JavaScript), the switch to Lua for templates, Wikidata, and Wikimedia Labs.
Our goals for the event are to bring 100-150 people together, including lots of people who have not attended such events before. User scripts, gadgets, API use, Toolserver, Wikimedia Labs, mobile, structured data, templates -- if you are into any of these things, we want you to come!
I also thought you might want to know about other upcoming events where you can learn more about MediaWiki customization and development, how to best use the web API for bots, and various upcoming features and changes. We'd love to have power users, bot maintainers and writers, and template makers at these events so we can all learn from each other and chat about what needs doing.
Check out the the developers' days preceding Wikimania in July in Washington, DC and our other events.
Best wishes! - Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation's Volunteer Development Coordinator. Please reply on my talk page, here or at mediawiki.org. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator 14:51, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Please don't blame me for errors on Wikipedia's part, maybe just asking me what happened instead of assuming what happened would have been a more reasonable thing to do. I am a long time Wikipedia user/member/editor, do not let the new account fool you. Remember what the teacher always said, never judge a book by its cover. You're welcome. -- Zlit93 ( talk) 04:04, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
Hey there :). You're being contacted because you're an edit filter manager, At the moment, we're developing Version 5 of the Article Feedback Tool, which you may or may not have heard about. If you haven't; for the first time, this will involve a free-text box where readers can submit comments :). Obviously, there's going to be junk, and we want to minimise that junk. To do so, we're working the Abuse Filter into the tool.
For this to work, we need people to write and maintain filters. I'd be very grateful if you could take a look at the discussion here and the attached docs, and comment and contribute! Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 18:20, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi you. I'm getting just about sick of you. After u, blocked my account I've been stalking err watching your edits. It seems most of your edits appear to be declining submissions for new article creations, talk page edits with snarky little comments telling them how they're wrong in some way. After you tell them they're wrong you will use a snarky icon like :) or :( . Im here to tell you to get off your high horse. Regards. Also please stop using the snarky comment "Misbehaving" in your block summaries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Justinoverst ( talk • contribs) 00:10, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

I thought someone should let you know that your name is invoked in the preamble to Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2012_April_26#RfX-notice, just in case you weren't already aware. I mentioned you in my rationale, too. Adrian J. Hunter( talk• contribs) 14:17, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
Is there any reason you reverted my edit changing "Israel" to "West Bank" in the article on Sacramento, California?
No entity recognizes Bethlehem as part of Israel, not even the Israeli government. The only part of the West Bank whose status as a part of Israel's national territory is disputed is East Jerusalem. As for the rest of the West Bank, including Bethlehem, Israel does not claim it, and it's internationally recognized as part of the Palestinian Territories. Stating that Bethlehem is part of Israel is factually wrong; this is not a POV statement.
If you have a good argument against this, could you state it in the talk page of the article? I made a section there regarding the Bethlehem issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.189.169 ( talk) 23:45, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
Here is the page that the source for Bethlehem and Sacramento being sister cities comes from:
http://www.cityofsacramento.org/SisterCities/bethlehem.htm
You'll note that even this page does not claim that Bethlehem is in Israel, so I see no reason for you doing so. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.189.169 ( talk) 23:50, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

07:13, 8 May 2012 (UTC)I suggest you delete all the old Signpost notices from your talk page and archives. It will make your talk page load faster, and make it easier to find stuff. I only keep the last couple issues at most for Wikimedia Highlights on my talk page. Makes it much less unwieldy. I have the Signpost in my watchlist. I also have the latest Signpost in the top area of my talk page. Here is the wikitext: {{Signpost-subscription|left}} - each issue shows up in the same spot. No multiple copies on my talk page. -- Timeshifter ( talk) 06:50, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
