It said, in the last Beatles' newsletter, that "Sir Sean de Garde appears to have developed multiple personalities." This is very true (and made me laugh an awful lot) but it is necessary when one is faced with talking to one on one's pages that one has contributed to. (Work that one out... :) The changing of one's name brings tremendous amusement to one - as other editors are wont to do the same. I refer you to members, Vera, Chuck, and Dave, LessHeard vanU, and Crestville, who have given one a terrific amount of pleasure in the general 'laughing gear' area, because of their inovative choices of Nom de plumes. One can only hope that this practice does not offend one's own sense of normality. One can only live in hope. :)) Who am I? 20:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
I can understand your concern that someone may vandalize the template, but what the hell. I'm the creator of it, and now am forbidden of making further edits to it? How am I supposed to improve it? By making timid requests that nobody will care? I'm no admin, and no one's going to nominate or turn me into one, so please do semi-protect the page instead.-- Saoshyant talk / contribs (please join WP:PT or WP:SPOKEN) 10:50, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Lar. I've been trying to provide guidance for the AFMP project with a less than great understanding of how the mainpage actually comes together to be the mainpage. I finally figured out that the mainpage is composed of five variable sections with the remainder of the page being text/section that does not change often (e.g., fixed text). Five independent groups control the content of the five variable sections. The fixed text to the mainpage includes navigation page, search box, in other languages section, masthead, Other areas of Wikipedia, Wikipedia's sister projects, Wikipedia languages, etc.) The discussion on the AFMP 2007 and AFMP 2006 project pages regarding these fixed text sections of the mainpage went in unfortunate directions, probably because there was a lack of understanding as to how the fixed text sections of the mainpage appear on the mainpage and who has authority over approving changes to these sections. I tried locating the person/group responsible for the fixed mainpage text, but could not. Do you happen to know who has approval over fixed sections of the mainpage and/or know of an article/page discussing how the mainpage comes to be the mainpage? Please post your response on my talk page. Thanks. -- Jreferee 19:14, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Quoted from
Wikipedia talk:April Fool's Main Page:
The more ambitious thing to do is an "UNMERGE" where you delete, partially restore (undelete the newer part), move it to your destination, and then restore the rest of the revisions. If you have a good break point it's just a matter of clicking a lot of revisions individually. Tedious but doable. It also can be done whenever, its just the more edits, the more revisions to checkbox :) ++

Hi. I just created a goofy, hopefully humorous user page called " Seria Ludo", the main context of which is me complaining about the length of the DYK hook we used for Fauna of Scotland. The following text is from the bottom of the page:
I wanted to call the page to your attention and make sure you read the note I left for you therein. Thanks again. House of Scandal 03:16, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Your advice on the Socialism talk page is duly acknowledged, appreciated and will be taken to heart. I realized immediately after I clicked "save page" that I went a little too far with that final comment, and I struck it and appologized to the person at which it was directed. I do have a question though, if I may. I have been editing Wikipedia for almost two years now and never had any major problems with anybody. We either get along or respectfully agree to disagree. However, this particular editor, who is rather new, has been wiki-stalking me since our first disagreement and is now claiming that I am sending him threatening emails (which I stake my wiki-reputation that I am not). That was a big part of what led to my frustration with that comment. What should I do?-- WilliamThweatt 19:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
I must insist that you do not interject my statements with your comments. If you want to respond to my entry, please do so below it, not in its middle. Thanks, -- Irpen 19:52, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
You can't have my statements interjected by your commenting on them, period. I did my best effort to restore the order by simply moving your comments below mine. If you don't want me to move your comments, I can delete them, if that's what you prefer, so that you will rewrite them yourself properly but I will not allow my statements to be interjected with your remarks. Use the space below them. Thanks, -- Irpen 19:58, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Please do not wikilawyer. I am making a perfectly reasonable request to not have my statements commented upon in their middle interrupting their text flow. For the last time, I absolutely insist that you leave my comments alone when you respond to them. -- Irpen 20:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
I did not ever delete your comments. If I did, I apologize. I moved them below my statement and I explained you why. If you think lack of context makes your comments unclear, edit them as you see fit to improve their clarity but leave mine alone. -- Irpen 20:11, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Whatever you want. I leave it up to you. -- Irpen 20:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
BTW, I do believe that you hold me responsible for your stewardship nomination being derailed. By opposing you, I meant no ill will against you personally in any way. I had doubts about your fitness to this sensitive position and acted upon them but I did not canvass votes against you and did not do anything other than opposed and explained why. I hope this matter is behind and we can concentrate on the current issues setting aside that past thing. -- Irpen 20:21, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
I was not contacted by anyone, that's for one. I was at Meta due to the then ongoing voting regarding the closure of Wikipedia in the so called "Siberian language". I saw the announcement about the ongoing stewardship vote and went there. I noticed two people familiar to me, you and Taxman. I knew of both being involved in secretive and, in my opinion, damaging to Wikipedia decisions (Taxman in Carnildo's promotion, you in Giano's block) and opposed both without going into a great detail behind my vote at all. No one responded to my opposing Taxman but you and Kylu started to comment on my oppose vote insisting that I explain myself. You did so by email too. Then I explained my vote in a great detail at your talk and we had a discussion to this matter. If that discussion affected others, it is not my fault. I was asked for the explanation and I provided it upon request.
Now, you say that my oppose was based on the "distortions" of what happened over IRC. Nevertheless, and to this day, you did not give a clear and complete answer that would provide your own version. Your answer was always an evasive denial. Below I asked this question again. If you finally give an account of that sad event, we will finally be able to resolve that old issue. -- Irpen 21:03, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
BTW, if you prefer to explain that sad incident (you/Kylu/Giano) here rather than at the WP:AN, please by all means do so. I know you denied the most commonly understood version of events but you never gave an alternative explanation or were, as it seemed to me, generally evasive. If you could for once say clearly what took place, this could end this issue's being resurrected time and again. -- Irpen 20:15, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
OK, first of all, if she was unsure so as to raise the block at ANI, why did not she first raise the issue at WP:ANI and did so after the block? I guess this is the question she better answer but there is a question that you can answer. Please be more specific on what you told her when she asked for advise. I would very much appreciate if you are as specific as you possibly can be. Best would be to post that log but if you don't have it, perhaps you can find someone who has it. Forrester is sure to have all logs for that channel. There is sure as hell no confidential stuff in that log like the checkuser data, personal info, etc. -- Irpen 21:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
And what about the second part of my question above? -- Irpen 21:23, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
I am not calling you anything. I am asking a complete account of events. I cannot force you to provide one. I note that you insist to refuse. That's all. Again, I am not calling you a thing. If I see the log, I will be satisfied and I will not be saying that there is more at the side channel. More, as I said, there is absolutely nothing in that discussion so confidential by nature that it should be kept secret. even more, if it took place at ANI, there would have been no issue. -- Irpen 21:38, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
If Kylu posted: "[This] is the conversation at Lar's talk that I think constitutes a blockable violation of WP:NPA. I would like to block but I am not 100% sure. Please advise." You would have suggested a course of action at ANI and we all would have seen it.
How would that not have worked? But there would have been no issue by now for sure. That's what's wrong in having such issues discussed over IRC. -- Irpen 21:38, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Some things, yes. But again, what in that particular incident required the IRC confidentiality? We see the damage from its having been on IRC instead of ANI. What's the benefit of that? -- Irpen 22:04, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Hello,
Are you aware that you helped unblock a user, Dino, who claimed that he contacted the author of a particularly contentious article, and then claimed that this author said that he never wrote said article here (when he did write the article - and it's even archived on the www from his website!) - and based on this info, a Wiki Foundation employee (who is not an active editor) User:Carolyn-WMF edited a contested article and removed critical material -based on these totally false claims by Dino? proof here I look forward to a complete investigation of this matter, and find the utter unresponsiveness of this WMF employee and another Foundation member, Danny Wool, when questioned about this matter by two Admins and two editors more than a little troubling. New ANI investigation here - - Fairness & Accuracy For All
at User_talk:Yamla, Yamla said - Please note that I am recusing myself from any such investigation due to my involvement on unblock-en-l. --Yamla 21:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC) I think I will do the same at least for now. ++ Lar: t/ c 04:06, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Note - User:DeanHinnen just admitted to being the same person as permanently blocked User:BryanFromPalatine here; [2] -- BenBurch 06:29, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
In his last post, BenBurch has again distorted and misrepresented the evidence. Larry, I understand your decision to recuse yourself, but at least refer this matter to someone else who will take action immediately. All of your patient work at Unblock-en-l, and all of the work by the other Admins there, is being disregarded. Somebody has to step up and do the right thing. The official ruling is that I was making a good faith effort to remove libelous material and prevent litigation (something I'd like to continue to do if I'm allowed), and that I am not a sock puppet. Please find someone who will enforce that ruling. Thank you. Dino 12:38, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
The above all reads like a content dispute. Please work the normal consensus processes on the relevant pages and talk pages and everything should be well. If for some reason they break down, then maybe something needs doing but I am satisfied that this user should be allowed to edit. I remind you Dino has pledged to only propose edits to Free Republic on the talk page, not actually make them. I don't see how things could easily go awry under that regime. Just work the process and all should be well. Hope that helps. ++ Lar: t/ c 00:15, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
I was going to ask some stupid question, which I will likely find out by myself with a bit of effort, and read a few of the last topics... Whatever anyone else says, I think you are one of the great guys! You comment on your userpage that you make mistakes; ain't nobody else I've ever seen on Wiki has done that, and it says a lot about you. You may be wrong and/or mistaken in some of the cases above but it is only because you care. (edit: you may not be wrong, I just meant that I don't know the situation!)
It may be that you don't need this huggy crap, but I don't give a fuck! I wanted to say it! See you at the next newsletter... LessHeard vanU (Mark) 23:28, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
I have started work on a Defend Each Other essay at [ [3]]. Comments and contributions welcome... Georgewilliamherbert 00:43, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Lar,
I'm wondering if you are the person to have a gentle word with User: Ideogram as his behaviour is becoming increasingly erratic and odd. He is now openly stalking me and attacking me at every turn, he has always had a bit of a thing in that direction a Ghirla pointed out before he left. [4] However now it seems to be becoming more serious - this diff this lists a series or repeated and varied attacks on me while I was not even editing, [5] this one lists a whole series of diffs which prove my case rather than his , [6] and this final one [7] he has posted on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents makes him appear truly ridiculous, especially when one read the comment included by Bunchofgrapes. I don't have the time to list all of his antics, but you can just check ot his most recent edits to see the immediate problem. Perhaps he just needs a kind helpful comment from a friend to warn him that his baiting will only exacerbate what is already potentially explosive situation. Giano 16:19, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Since Irpen has been so kind as to ask you to be an intermediary, I would request of you that you remind him I can not have a rational discussion with someone bent on proving I am a troll. Also ask him to discuss changes before reverting. -- Ideogram 04:43, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi, me again. Could you help me figure something out please? It looks here that User:Deltabeignet blanked the Amphibiosan article and put a redirect in it's place. The user says on the talk page this isn't the case. Thanks. House of Scandal 23:20, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Dear Lar, That's certainly the crux of the matter. I relied to the information provided by Hurricanehink that LNBS Main Article: Hurricane Bob (1979) was not an item within the main space. If he is wrong, that's the end of the story. cheers, Camptown 09:10, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

It may be that you don't need this huggy crap, but I don't give a fuck! I wanted to say it! See you at the next newsletter... LessHeard vanU (Mark) 23:28, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
I have started work on a Defend Each Other essay at [ [3]]. Comments and contributions welcome... Georgewilliamherbert 00:43, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Lar,
I'm wondering if you are the person to have a gentle word with User: Ideogram as his behaviour is becoming increasingly erratic and odd. He is now openly stalking me and attacking me at every turn, he has always had a bit of a thing in that direction a Ghirla pointed out before he left. [4] However now it seems to be becoming more serious - this diff this lists a series or repeated and varied attacks on me while I was not even editing, [5] this one lists a whole series of diffs which prove my case rather than his , [6] and this final one [7] he has posted on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents makes him appear truly ridiculous, especially when one read the comment included by Bunchofgrapes. I don't have the time to list all of his antics, but you can just check ot his most recent edits to see the immediate problem. Perhaps he just needs a kind helpful comment from a friend to warn him that his baiting will only exacerbate what is already potentially explosive situation. Giano 16:19, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Since Irpen has been so kind as to ask you to be an intermediary, I would request of you that you remind him I can not have a rational discussion with someone bent on proving I am a troll. Also ask him to discuss changes before reverting. -- Ideogram 04:43, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi, me again. Could you help me figure something out please? It looks here that User:Deltabeignet blanked the Amphibiosan article and put a redirect in it's place. The user says on the talk page this isn't the case. Thanks. House of Scandal 23:20, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Dear Lar, That's certainly the crux of the matter. I relied to the information provided by Hurricanehink that LNBS Main Article: Hurricane Bob (1979) was not an item within the main space. If he is wrong, that's the end of the story. cheers, Camptown 09:10, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
