... it's true. But you really ought to read meta:User_talk:Lar#The_English_Wikipedia ... there is a chance this user can be turned around. He owes you more of an apology than he's given so far, in my view, but unlike some very intransigent users (such as Tobias Conradi) who think the world is out to get them, he seems to understand what he did was wrong, and understand how he needs to change, at least partly. Would you consider dialoging with him to see if there is a chance you'd give him another chance? I suspect that I will not unblock or support an unblock, without you being bought into it and on board, because he really did try very hard to be annoying to you, so if you cannot see how it would work, it won't. I will watch here for a while, you can answer here. ++ Lar: t/ c 22:03, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, my dear friend. I'm an administrator on the Spanish wikipedia, and we have talked more than once concerning vandalism in both wikipedias. I've blocked Tokoblue several times, as you asked me to do so. Now, I need a favour. Can you help me? There is one annoying guy on Spanish wikipedia, who hates administrators in general, calling them fascists. The same guy has been blocked there for violating WP:Etiquette. Unfortunately, he took his revenge with the user who rightly blocked him, Siabef. If you look at his page, you'll see how he insulted him and talked him badly. I hope you understand Spanish, in order to be aware of this serious fault. Here you have, for instance, some diffs that can help you: this, and this one. I hope you can block him. Thank you in advance. Kind regards, -- Gustave - May I help you? 20:30, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello again, Ryulong. It has come to my attention that the user 24.186.41.57 has been making unsavory edits to the various PR character articles. Messing with infoboxes, mostly. Not necessarily vandalism, but it's on the verge of being so. After I noticed and reverted many of said edits I went to his talk page to warn him. And in doing so I noticed that he'd been warned several times before over various things. As such, I was wondering if you could do something about him. A stern warning, or perhaps a blocking if it has to be done. Thanks -- Venomaru 2.0 00:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Concerning the listings of the monsters for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 1-3, it's been noted on the occasions when a monster would appear in a video game or comic in the section for the monster.

Thanks for dealing with this user's edits just now, and blocking him -- he seems to be the ip of a small group of socks that make the same edits to these articles in defiance of everyone else, see Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/JJonz, and he's somewhat annoying to deal with, so thanks for your help!

See Special:Contributions/Goldendeity. Just happened upon this user while flipping through Bobobobobosomething's sock puppet page.

Ryulong, I noticed you removed the succession box addition that was made to the Adam Park page, and even though I didn't add it to begin with, I think it has merit. It is my belief that the "Retro Rangers" have as much right to be in said succession boxes as say... the Alien Rangers. Even though the Retro Rangers didn't replace the PROO Rangers for very long, they were still counted as their replacements. In the eyes of the Sentinel Knight, they were the official longterm replacements, even if the OO Rangers, and in fact the Retro Rangers themselves, made it so that didn't come to pass.
As such, instead of reverting your edits and getting into some sort of misunderstanding-based edit war, I've come to you directly to appeal the revision, given that the source material clearly states they were replacements, and not just a visiting team. -- Venomaru 2.0 01:06, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
I noticed that the Comparison of file systems page is semi-protected. It seemed strange to me that I couldn't edit the page; from the "view source" page, I found out that the page was protected, and discovered that to request unprotection, I should refer to the administrator that locked the page at first.
The page was locked almost five months ago, with the intent of doing it temporarily, I presume. By reading the protection policy, I understand that the number of protected pages should be kept to a minimum, to encourage edits by occasional visitors like me. This is why I prefer to see the page unlocked rather than requesting minor edits in the talk page, unless there are compelling reasons to do otherwise.
I searched the archives in your talk page and found this request on the same subject. Your response to that earlier request was that the page is a "common target" (I assume you referred to vandalism). While I can understand that locking a page can be a response to a high volume of vandalism on a disputed topic, I don't see the point in doing that on a page that displays a summary of factual data based on references to technical sources.
The opinions above are dictated by common sense; maybe there are some issues involved in unblocking the page that I'm not aware of, but in this case I'd like you to explain your motives clearly, considering that I'm new to Wikipedia and my thoughts are based just on a reading of the policies. At first I also thought that the page was protected to limit the chance of introducing inaccurate data; thinking it over, I concluded this is unrelated with the reasons for protection.
Thank you for your attention,

I am responding to an unblock request at User talk:Baron von Banhammer-Krapenhoeffer. He was username blocked with autoblock, account creation disabled and e-mail blocked. The block log does not explain why you think this name needs to be given a hard block, and no message was given to the user.
I assume the name is blocked for being to long? Is there some reason I cannot see that this warranted a hard block? Until (1 == 2) 20:11, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I was about to block this user myself but discovered you had beaten me to the punch. I was suprised to see that you had blocked indef. You haven't indicated whether it was an open proxy and otherwise the block seems excessive and contra policy. Is there a reason for this? I also see that you haven't left any block messages - this makes it very difficult for any passing stray admin reviewing an unblock request. Spartaz Humbug! 18:09, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

I was not aware that I was editing my user page rather than the actual page for QuakeSim. The information I had was not for advertisement or anything of the sort. QuakeSim is a NASA Project about earthquake and gelology studies. We merely wanted to have a wikipedia page about QuakeSim the project. I was told by another user that I had edited my userpage rather than the actual QuakeSim encyclopedia page and was planning on fixing this.
QuakeSim 22:01, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Well the resources are quakesim.org, desdyni.org, and a couple of brochures that were created here by JPL employees. I don't understand what the problem is. QuakeSim is a NASA project that we JPL employees work on and wanted to have a QuakeSim wikipedia page with a brief explanation of the project and its components. What would I have to do to ensure that the QuakeSim article is not deleted? QuakeSim 22:30, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
I also have sources to different websites like the National Science Foundation and SCIGN. QuakeSim 22:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
I don't see what the problem is. There is no conflict of interest present. Yes I am an employee and writing the article on the project I work with but I am nto the only one working on the project. Also, a conflict of interest as I understood it in the link you provided me is if I am an employee or have an affilliation with the article topic and am creating the article so that I can promote my own personal ideas and gain my own personal benefits from providing this information to the public. I get no benefit from this. We decided to create this page because we wanted to provide the public with another way of learning about the QuakeSim project and its components. This article is designed ONLY TO BENEFIT THE PUBLIC and not the people affilliated with the topic. If you were to read the article before deleting it you would have realized that nowhere in the article is there any information that remotely implies that we have written the article with any purpose or intent of self-promotion. All the information is there so that YOU and the public who do NOT work on this project are informed about what is going on and know where you might be able to get more information about it or related topics.

You say that Sixth Rangers don't have the series name in their ranger title, but as defined in the Other Ranger and Ranger-like Allies page, the Omega Ranger is technically a White Ranger. Shadow, Kat/Cat, and Nova Rangers all have S.P.D. in their names, and the lady rangers are by definition Other Rangers, so by definition, Sam should have it as well. And if you're going to use the official Power Rangers website as referance, I suggest otherwise, as it is seriously flawed. There is only slight mention of the Green Power Ranger, and no mention of the Gold Ranger, Silver Space Ranger, S.P.D. rangers besides the core 5 and Doggie, Wolf Warrior, and refers to the Lightspeed Rangers as Rescue Rangers, where they were always called by the former in the show. I hope that the expressing of my opinion doesn't have my account cancelled. CrystallixRed 00:47, 14 August 2007 (UTC)CrystallixRed
Actually, when he first shows up in present S.P.D. time, he says to Morgana, "It's only going to take 1 ranger to stop you; S.P.D. Omega Ranger!"

As the orginator and primary editor of above article, I understand and totally agree with the decision. I am not going to campaign for undeletion, as I do understand that there are two major issues with it. (WP is not a dictionary, and WP is not for OR). However, I want to publish this work in few Sri Lanka sites. (with credits to all its contributors, and WP and also stating the reason why it was deleted from WP) I have been getting backups of the article content, and the wiki sources, but I may have missed last few edits on it. I was under the impression that deleted arcticles can be accessed, but unfortunately it does not seems to be the case. Can you let me know if there is a way in getting copy of the article (and the wiki source for it) just before the deletion? Please reply on my talk page Ritigala Jayasena 05:31, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I undid them because of what I said; English should always be first on an English Wikipedia. There's a naming convention you can read at WP:ENGLISH which expresses this. You said yourself that most anime fans would not be as familiar with tokusatsu as they would be with anime, and that is reason enough for me to pipelink the foreign term. To back up my claim, I had no idea what tokusatsu meant until only 6 months ago or so, and that was only after I saw the Wikipedia article on it, and I've been watching anime for nearly three years now. Not only that, but if a reader has to read through prose that has English and foreign terms, it will be jarring to the reader and they may be confused. The point is to keep them in the article they are reading instead of having to go to the tokusatsu article to find out what it is if they do not know. Thus, I have reverted your most recent two edits.-- 十 八 16:46, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello Ryulong. You're the admin who was following the activities of Nirelan ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) some time back. He is the person who was edit warring at Dave Winer. You last blocked him on 18 February, for one month. You protected the article itself on 23 February to prevent him from continuing to edit the article as an IP. The semi-protection was removed on 3 August. Nick Irelan has now returned as Irelann ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) with similar edits, and is approaching 3RR at Dave Winer.

Hiya! I logged in today to find my userpage completely gone with the message "We are not a free webhost for someone with very little contributions." This was also speedily deleted which is very surprising for a userpage. The content of my page may have been questionable, but it was in upwards of 75% Wikipedia related, well within guidelines. It was also vandalized to contain a sexual picture (the original complaint against it) that I had nothing to do with (and the history confirms this). I think it's ridiculous that I got deleted this fast just for being a low contributor and a victim of vandalism. Seems like Wikipedia should be more equal and tolerant than this considering that this is a user page and not an article. Holla! LOLHI IM PAULIE 01:59, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

It's also customary (and courtesy) to warn the user before blocking, and then place a block template. You failed to do either of these things. Did you not learn a thing from your very recent RfC?

You indefblocked this user as a sockpuppeteer in May of year; an action which I can only applaud. He has now shown up on my talk page as user:81.152.188.27; as you can see, he is asking who fingered him as a puppet master, but does not appear to have any recent vandalism to his name. He appears to have overlooked the point that if he wishes to argue about his block, appearing as a sock is a poor way to do it. Do we leave him alone, or block his new IP? I assume that his original IP was blocked in May. -- Anthony.bradbury "talk" 22:39, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello Ryulong, I came across your recent merge mentioned above. Would you mind looking into a deletion/merge request on Pussycat Dolls, please, if you're not too busy? It's a page with a large history, and since I've never performed a delete/merge before, I thought I'd better ask an administrator with much more experience than me about this. Thanks.

Please explain to me, why use an outdated image, that one may think serves as a term for a Negroid type, in this 21st century? You're POV is just that. It does not matter what the source says, in fact it is not clear that the text supports the image in question. Now the page is again protected. This is not helpful nor constructive for Wikipedia articles, which should be up to date. Not based on some 19th century's version of what is or what isn't.

However, there is no link to the MFD on the deletion reason, and I couldn't find a link to any MFD discussion in the deleted revisions of the page itself. Whatlinkshere also didn't return any MFD page. Could you tell me which MFD it was? If the archive is to be kept deleted, the discussions would probably have to be restored to the talk page, but I cannot tell without looking at the deletion discussion. -- cesarb 02:05, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Dear Ryulong, I awared that you reverted a message in my talk from that user, after following suitable links also I saw that you blocked -indef- that user due to (mainly for this Turkish message). I think you had a misinformation about this message(except the fact that to distribute to many user as a spam);
There is no any political POV pushing in this message such an invitation to keep/save Turkey related pages from attacks of fanatic Armenien Users.
Here is a translation of this message; arkadaşlar merhaba-Hello friends-, şu sıralar wikideki ermeniler iyice azıtmış durumda-these days,Armenien wikipedians are going too far-, türkiye ve türkler hakkındaki tüm kaynakları referanslarıyla birlikte imha çabası içerisindeler- they are making efforts to destroy the all sources and related references about Turkey and Turks-. özellikle "Turkey", "Turkish People" ve "Turkic peoples " sayfaları ve bunlar ile bağlantılı sayfalar hiç olmadığı kadar tehdit altında-especially; "Turkey", "Turkish People" ve "Turkic peoples " articles and linked articles are under threat as never become before, türkiyenin neredeyse tüm şehirlerinin sayfalarına kendi ulusal reklamlarını eklemek üzereler-they are about to add their advertisements to almost all cities of Turkey-. bununlada yetineyip kendileriyle hiçbir alakası olmayan "tarihteki türk uygarlıkları" ile ilgili makalelere saldırma çirkinliğinide atlamıyorlar-they are not contented with this(adding advertisements..); also they are not forget/leave out their uggly attacks to the articles related with "Turkish civilizations in history" which are not any relations with them-. lütfen aşşağıdaki bu ve bunun gibi wiki bağlantılarını kullanarak bu tehdite karşı koyalım-Please, lets resist to this threat using following and similar wiki links. sayıları bizden çok daha az yeterki organize olalım- number/amount of theirs(armenian users)is less than ours, just we need to organize-. saygılar-respects

As you can see , he just invite Turkish users to have an organizing effort to save Turkey related pages-resist to illegal POV pushing- using wiki rules.

... it's true. But you really ought to read meta:User_talk:Lar#The_English_Wikipedia ... there is a chance this user can be turned around. He owes you more of an apology than he's given so far, in my view, but unlike some very intransigent users (such as Tobias Conradi) who think the world is out to get them, he seems to understand what he did was wrong, and understand how he needs to change, at least partly. Would you consider dialoging with him to see if there is a chance you'd give him another chance? I suspect that I will not unblock or support an unblock, without you being bought into it and on board, because he really did try very hard to be annoying to you, so if you cannot see how it would work, it won't.

Hey, my dear friend. I'm an administrator on the Spanish wikipedia, and we have talked more than once concerning vandalism in both wikipedias. I've blocked Tokoblue several times, as you asked me to do so. Now, I need a favour. Can you help me? There is one annoying guy on Spanish wikipedia, who hates administrators in general, calling them fascists. The same guy has been blocked there for violating WP:Etiquette. Unfortunately, he took his revenge with the user who rightly blocked him, Siabef. If you look at his page, you'll see how he insulted him and talked him badly. I hope you understand Spanish, in order to be aware of this serious fault. Here you have, for instance, some diffs that can help you: this, and this one. I hope you can block him.

Hello again, Ryulong. It has come to my attention that the user 24.186.41.57 has been making unsavory edits to the various PR character articles. Messing with infoboxes, mostly. Not necessarily vandalism, but it's on the verge of being so. After I noticed and reverted many of said edits I went to his talk page to warn him. And in doing so I noticed that he'd been warned several times before over various things. As such, I was wondering if you could do something about him. A stern warning, or perhaps a blocking if it has to be done. Thanks -- Venomaru 2.0 00:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Ryulong, I noticed you removed the succession box addition that was made to the Adam Park page, and even though I didn't add it to begin with, I think it has merit. It is my belief that the "Retro Rangers" have as much right to be in said succession boxes as say... the Alien Rangers. Even though the Retro Rangers didn't replace the PROO Rangers for very long, they were still counted as their replacements. In the eyes of the Sentinel Knight, they were the official longterm replacements, even if the OO Rangers, and in fact the Retro Rangers themselves, made it so that didn't come to pass.
As such, instead of reverting your edits and getting into some sort of misunderstanding-based edit war, I've come to you directly to appeal the revision, given that the source material clearly states they were replacements, and not just a visiting team. -- Venomaru 2.0 01:06, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
I noticed that the Comparison of file systems page is semi-protected. It seemed strange to me that I couldn't edit the page; from the "view source" page, I found out that the page was protected, and discovered that to request unprotection, I should refer to the administrator that locked the page at first.
The page was locked almost five months ago, with the intent of doing it temporarily, I presume. By reading the protection policy, I understand that the number of protected pages should be kept to a minimum, to encourage edits by occasional visitors like me. This is why I prefer to see the page unlocked rather than requesting minor edits in the talk page, unless there are compelling reasons to do otherwise.
I searched the archives in your talk page and found this request on the same subject. Your response to that earlier request was that the page is a "common target" (I assume you referred to vandalism). While I can understand that locking a page can be a response to a high volume of vandalism on a disputed topic, I don't see the point in doing that on a page that displays a summary of factual data based on references to technical sources.
The opinions above are dictated by common sense; maybe there are some issues involved in unblocking the page that I'm not aware of, but in this case I'd like you to explain your motives clearly, considering that I'm new to Wikipedia and my thoughts are based just on a reading of the policies. At first I also thought that the page was protected to limit the chance of introducing inaccurate data; thinking it over, I concluded this is unrelated with the reasons for protection.
Thank you for your attention,

I was not aware that I was editing my user page rather than the actual page for QuakeSim. The information I had was not for advertisement or anything of the sort. QuakeSim is a NASA Project about earthquake and gelology studies. We merely wanted to have a wikipedia page about QuakeSim the project.

Well the resources are quakesim.org, desdyni.org, and a couple of brochures that were created here by JPL employees. I don't understand what the problem is.

I also have sources to different websites like the National Science Foundation and SCIGN. QuakeSim 22:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
I don't see what the problem is. There is no conflict of interest present. Yes I am an employee and writing the article on the project I work with but I am nto the only one working on the project. Also, a conflict of interest as I understood it in the link you provided me is if I am an employee or have an affilliation with the article topic and am creating the article so that I can promote my own personal ideas and gain my own personal benefits from providing this information to the public. I get no benefit from this. We decided to create this page because we wanted to provide the public with another way of learning about the QuakeSim project and its components. This article is designed ONLY TO BENEFIT THE PUBLIC and not the people affilliated with the topic. If you were to read the article before deleting it you would have realized that nowhere in the article is there any information that remotely implies that we have written the article with any purpose or intent of self-promotion. All the information is there so that YOU and the public who do NOT work on this project are informed about what is going on and know where you might be able to get more information about it or related topics.

You say that Sixth Rangers don't have the series name in their ranger title, but as defined in the Other Ranger and Ranger-like Allies page, the Omega Ranger is technically a White Ranger. Shadow, Kat/Cat, and Nova Rangers all have S.P.D. in their names, and the lady rangers are by definition Other Rangers, so by definition, Sam should have it as well. And if you're going to use the official Power Rangers website as referance, I suggest otherwise, as it is seriously flawed. There is only slight mention of the Green Power Ranger, and no mention of the Gold Ranger, Silver Space Ranger, S.P.D. rangers besides the core 5 and Doggie, Wolf Warrior, and refers to the Lightspeed Rangers as Rescue Rangers, where they were always called by the former in the show. I hope that the expressing of my opinion doesn't have my account cancelled. CrystallixRed 00:47, 14 August 2007 (UTC)CrystallixRed

However, I want to publish this work in few Sri Lanka sites. (with credits to all its contributors, and WP and also stating the reason why it was deleted from WP) I have been getting backups of the article content, and the wiki sources, but I may have missed last few edits on it. I was under the impression that deleted arcticles can be accessed, but unfortunately it does not seems to be the case. Can you let me know if there is a way in getting copy of the article (and the wiki source for it) just before the deletion? Please reply on my talk page Ritigala Jayasena 05:31, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I undid them because of what I said; English should always be first on an English Wikipedia. There's a naming convention you can read at WP:ENGLISH which expresses this. You said yourself that most anime fans would not be as familiar with tokusatsu as they would be with anime, and that is reason enough for me to pipelink the foreign term. To back up my claim, I had no idea what tokusatsu meant until only 6 months ago or so, and that was only after I saw the Wikipedia article on it, and I've been watching anime for nearly three years now. Not only that, but if a reader has to read through prose that has English and foreign terms, it will be jarring to the reader and they may be confused. The point is to keep them in the article they are reading instead of having to go to the tokusatsu article to find out what it is if they do not know. Thus, I have reverted your most recent two edits.-- 十 八 16:46, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello Ryulong. You're the admin who was following the activities of Nirelan ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) some time back. He is the person who was edit warring at Dave Winer. You last blocked him on 18 February, for one month. You protected the article itself on 23 February to prevent him from continuing to edit the article as an IP. The semi-protection was removed on 3 August. Nick Irelan has now returned as Irelann ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) with similar edits, and is approaching 3RR at Dave Winer. Can you advise what we should do next? It is possible that his block evasion and use of multiple accounts would win him an extension. Thanks, EdJohnston 21:08, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Can I ask you why you posted a message stating that I have been indefinitely blocked for violating the user name policy, my user name was changed by an admin. Clearly you must be mistaken? IvoShandor 09:25, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Check out Special:Contributions/Uifjei. Someone seems to be trolling in your name.

Since your the only administrator I can find that is involved with Tokusatsu articles I'll address this too you. The user User:Naruto134 keeps recreating the Keizer_Ghidorah article and making threats and hyperboles on the talk page when it was agreed that the article was unnecessary on the Ghidorah talk page. He has also done the same on my own talk page as well.-- CLS 22:42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
I strongly suspect that user Tratare is another sockpuppet of EverybodyHatesChris due to a similar, almost identical, edit history between the two accounts and other socks:

Could you explain please your decision to block indefinitely User:Zasdcxz? He is a new user and probably blanked a page just by an accident. He never did any "POV forking" which you cite as a reason of his block. Thank you. Biophys 05:57, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Other than some things you didn't accept(Like Gaoh), I made sure the pages were'nt mess with. By the way, I must ask you able Gon-Gon Fist? I think the "Gon-Gon" as actually "ゴンゴン"(The first letters in GONgu) as "Stern/厳" is "Gen". Fractyl 22:41, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I found this list pretty useful, why was it removed? There must be another reason other than only because it was made by a user that's now blocked (or banned). TheBlazikenMaster 09:28, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
This user looks like a "this is my Myspace page" user. Most of this user's mainspace edits (also under anon IP User:71.213.82.37) seems to be adding names of bands s/he likes to articles -- I found this person through coming across this inappropriate edit to the Kansas article. -- Yksin 18:08, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Are you sure its a proxy? It doesn't look like one to me, it seems to be a residential road runner address. (While someone could be running a proxy or have a compromised system, it fails my usual tests.) Thatcher131 20:59, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
I was just fixing this article to remove the FU galleries, when I noticed you'd deleted it this morning, and it had been re-created. I haven't re-deleted it, as with the FU fixed it does look like a serviceable article - is there any reason why it was deleted other than being a product of a banned user? Cheers, ELIMINATORJR 23:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Hiya! I logged in today to find my userpage completely gone with the message "We are not a free webhost for someone with very little contributions." This was also speedily deleted which is very surprising for a userpage. The content of my page may have been questionable, but it was in upwards of 75% Wikipedia related, well within guidelines. It was also vandalized to contain a sexual picture (the original complaint against it) that I had nothing to do with (and the history confirms this). I think it's ridiculous that I got deleted this fast just for being a low contributor and a victim of vandalism. Seems like Wikipedia should be more equal and tolerant than this considering that this is a user page and not an article. Holla! LOLHI IM PAULIE 01:59, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi Ryulong. 82.148.96.68 ( talk · contribs · logs) seems to be here to post non-sense. 82.148.97.69 ( talk · contribs · logs) is not much better and 82.148.96.68 tried to unblock [3] [4] 82.148.97.69. I do not have enough experience dealing with such matters. Would you please look into this? Thanks. -- Jreferee ( Talk) 06:41, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Just curious, when you become an admin, do you have to download anything? Cheers, JetLover (talk) 22:58, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Just letting you know I reversed a block you inappropriately placed on this IP address. 1 week with blocked account creation for accidentally blanking a page, whilst trying to fix a delete tag? Please use more good faith next time instead of reaching for the banhammer.
It's also customary (and courtesy) to warn the user before blocking, and then place a block template. You failed to do either of these things. Did you not learn a thing from your very recent RfC? I'm hoping there's no more of these ridiculous blocks from you, as I have no time or desire to go through your block log. Majorly ( talk) 00:36, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
You are, according to your userpage, open to recall. How many users do you require to request this before submitting yourself to a revote? I want you to stand for a new RfA, I want my request to count towards a fixed total, and I don't want it to be forgotten when you archive your talk page or anything like that.

Hello! I have some concerns about the deletion of certain BJAODN subpages, and raised them at Wikipedia talk:Silly things#Additional subpages deleted. I wanted to invite you to comment there. Please note that I am not accusing you of doing anything wrong. Thanks for your time, and your efforts. Wikipedia benefits from those who care. — DragonHawk ( talk| hist) 14:15, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
I am unclear as to why you blocked my IP from editing. COMP: 24.70.95.203, block ID: #558455. The reason given was Abuse from the IP. I received no warnings and at this point I am still not sure what was edited from this computer that justified blocking it from editing. I await your explanation.

I noticed that on the S.P.D. Rangers page, the rangers' succesion boxes don't include the A-Squad. Similarly, there are no succesion boxes in the A-Squad Rangers page. Shouldn't they be added? CrystallixRed 02:36, 26 August 2007 (UTC)CrystallixRed

You indefblocked this user as a sockpuppeteer in May of year; an action which I can only applaud. He has now shown up on my talk page as user:81.152.188.27; as you can see, he is asking who fingered him as a puppet master, but does not appear to have any recent vandalism to his name. He appears to have overlooked the point that if he wishes to argue about his block, appearing as a sock is a poor way to do it. Do we leave him alone, or block his new IP? I assume that his original IP was blocked in May. -- Anthony.bradbury "talk" 22:39, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello Ryulong, I came across your recent merge mentioned above. Would you mind looking into a deletion/merge request on Pussycat Dolls, please, if you're not too busy? It's a page with a large history, and since I've never performed a delete/merge before, I thought I'd better ask an administrator with much more experience than me about this. Thanks. Acalamari 02:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Z-Man, it was the history merge that caused the db lock. That's why we don't do them if GFDL does not require it. Its not that its too difficult, its that there's a knock-on effect on everyone editing Wikipedia for no benefit. WjB scribe 02:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Please explain to me, why use an outdated image, that one may think serves as a term for a Negroid type, in this 21st century? You're POV is just that. It does not matter what the source says, in fact it is not clear that the text supports the image in question. Now the page is again protected. This is not helpful nor constructive for Wikipedia articles, which should be up to date. Not based on some 19th century's version of what is or what isn't. Unless, or course, it is stated as such. - Jeeny Talk 05:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Why did you remove the comments by Hakozen on my talk page without my chance to read or address them? Rarelibra 12:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I don't know if it's within the duties of an administrator but you deleted a user's message from my talk page. I have no intentions of indulging in the activites THAT user is but I would like to have the option to decide myself.
tl;dr: why did you delete stuff from my talk page?
Regards, -- Suleyman Habeeb 18:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
I noticed you deleted Wikipedia talk:Wikipe-tan/Temple, which is a talk page archive for Wikipedia talk:Wikipe-tan, with the reason "MFD results". However, there is no link to the MFD on the deletion reason, and I couldn't find a link to any MFD discussion in the deleted revisions of the page itself. Whatlinkshere also didn't return any MFD page. Could you tell me which MFD it was? If the archive is to be kept deleted, the discussions would probably have to be restored to the talk page, but I cannot tell without looking at the deletion discussion. -- cesarb 02:05, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Dear Ryulong, I awared that you reverted a message in my talk from that user, after following suitable links also I saw that you blocked -indef- that user due to (mainly for this Turkish message). I think you had a misinformation about this message(except the fact that to distribute to many user as a spam);
There is no any political POV pushing in this message such an invitation to keep/save Turkey related pages from attacks of fanatic Armenien Users.
Here is a translation of this message; arkadaşlar merhaba-Hello friends-, şu sıralar wikideki ermeniler iyice azıtmış durumda-these days,Armenien wikipedians are going too far-, türkiye ve türkler hakkındaki tüm kaynakları referanslarıyla birlikte imha çabası içerisindeler- they are making efforts to destroy the all sources and related references about Turkey and Turks-. özellikle "Turkey", "Turkish People" ve "Turkic peoples " sayfaları ve bunlar ile bağlantılı sayfalar hiç olmadığı kadar tehdit altında-especially; "Turkey", "Turkish People" ve "Turkic peoples " articles and linked articles are under threat as never become before, türkiyenin neredeyse tüm şehirlerinin sayfalarına kendi ulusal reklamlarını eklemek üzereler-they are about to add their advertisements to almost all cities of Turkey-. bununlada yetineyip kendileriyle hiçbir alakası olmayan "tarihteki türk uygarlıkları" ile ilgili makalelere saldırma çirkinliğinide atlamıyorlar-they are not contented with this(adding advertisements..); also they are not forget/leave out their uggly attacks to the articles related with "Turkish civilizations in history" which are not any relations with them-. lütfen aşşağıdaki bu ve bunun gibi wiki bağlantılarını kullanarak bu tehdite karşı koyalım-Please, lets resist to this threat using following and similar wiki links. sayıları bizden çok daha az yeterki organize olalım- number/amount of theirs(armenian users)is less than ours, just we need to organize-. saygılar-respects
--hakozen 01:15, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
As you can see , he just invite Turkish users to have an organizing effort to save Turkey related pages-resist to illegal POV pushing- using wiki rules. There is no any illegal/POV invitation.In other words I think to block this user indefinitely is not suitable, a punishment for sending spam messages may be acceptable. Sorry for my intervene and Thanks for your understanding. Regards Must. T C 20:54, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I saw that you were the admin who deleted the page back in April, when it was just a crystal ball article. The CW has begun heavy promotion of the new show now and they've released information on the contestants, so the article is now able to be created in earnest.

As the new season is starting, and there is verifiable information (contestant information, premiere date, etc), I believe that this page can be unprotected now. Can you please do so? Thanks in advance. SKS2K6 05:16, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey Ryulong. Just FYI - I took this out of your cascading prot page per user request on WP:RPP, the rationale given that this would probably make a good redirect. I'm inclined to agree here - Alison ☺ 12:28, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
The page is currently nothing more than a stub, and with the protection, this can not be improved. I intend to begin rewriting the page, and not participate in the revision war, which I believe will end as soon as the page began to get rewritin from the ground up. -- JLennox 17:43, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
