Thanks for warning Popekilroy regarding vandalism to the [Lawrence Sheriff School] article. It seems to me that the user may be a current student or member of staff at the school who is attempting to express his dissatisfaction with the way the school is run, but by vandalising the page, he isn't doing himself any favours.
However, a user by the name of Gamemaster has at least tried to put his point of view across in an erudite fashion. Unfortunately, it is still POV. Would it be worth me rewriting the section in question to make it more NPOV, or should it simply be removed?

You have blocked the above listed IP. This is an AOL IP address, and as such you are preventing many legitimate Wiki editors from going about their work. Unless there is a compelling reason to block the entire IP (i.e. recent significant vandalism or abuse by anonymous users/sockpuppets), I would ask that you please unblock this IP.

Please be aware that when you block, or set up an autoblock, of an IP proxy, you will impact all users (registered or unregistered) who are randomly assigned that IP number by their internet provider. As an AOL user, this happens to me frequently. Please see my User Page User:WBardwin/AOL Block Collection for a record of these blocks. Because of this problem, these IP's should not be blocked for any length of time. Information on the block found below. I would appreciate a prompt release of this block. Thank you. WBardwin 09:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
I have unblocked both IPs. Please note that I did not block either IP, the MediaWiki software did, and I had no way to prevent the autoblocks. See WP:AUTOBLOCK. I'm sorry that you were affected, but I'm afraid this is going to happen to anyone who uses AOL. -- Sam Blanning (talk) 10:14, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Well she is in the hands of the Gods now. I think it stands as good a chance as anuy other page, if not better. It is still basicaly the same page as you originally nominated, just the information is presented in a different way. I added very little - it was all there. So if it succeeds I hope you, Trebor and Mounties do not feel the glory has been taken from you. When I've done an FA on my own, it usually takes me weeks, or even months, so I don't feel a few hours copyediting is very much, my own (IMO) masterpeice Sicilian Baroque had to have hundreds of very severe copyeditors to finish it off.

Thanks for catching the anonIP vandal on my talk page, just so you're aware that's the 3rd time in less than 12 hours that that exact same edit has been made. I posted the last two on AN/I, but since you caught this, can you just block them? They're posting from a 'Bell Canada' IP, and User:Eyeonvaughan who is currently undergoing a User Conduct RfC and is blocked (for making that same edit) is in the geographic area where that IP may be coming from...

Hi Sam, thanks for your message. The information came from the candidates themselves who talked candidly about their apprentice experiences on the The Internet Forum ( http://forum.theinternetforum.net/index.php). Basically they talked about things that viewers did not see in BBC's final edit of each show.
One of the administrators collected all their "what you didnt see" information and published them in a PDF file. I obtained one of these and simply listed a few stories as "Trivia". They are true, they were just were not in the final edit of the shows.

Hi, the PDF actually goes for sale as the creator of it donates the money to charity. I can tell you its called "The Apprentice: The Unauthorized Story" and is available for purhcase here:

Hi there. You protected this about 10 days ago. Since WP:SEMI is for dealing with serious, current vandals, I figure it's been more than long enough to unprotect it now, even for a case of gastrichitis.

I am user Jeff Fenstermacher. You blocked my account for reverting blanking vandalism. Per the Wikipedia page on vandalism, "Removing all or significant parts of articles is a common vandal edit." Blanking is vandalism, simply put. It's not a content dispute. It's vandalism. Please be more familiar with your own rule system. 207.69.137.36 23:48, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
This is user Jeff Fenstermacher again. You wrote "Removing part of a page with a good-faith reason is not vandalism." Sorry, that contradicts specific, written Wikipedia policy as I quoted above. The way to resolve the matter was on the talk page, which I tried to initiate. The other user was blanking. Not editing, blanking. 207.69.137.36 23:58, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
You wrote: "If you have a good-faith and reasonable justification for removing a section, it isn't vandalism. He had initiated a discussion." I'm sorry, that's not what happened. Look at the history of the article. The first time he blanked the entire section without any explanation. As defined on the Wikipedia vandalism page, blanking a section in that manner without explanation is vandalism. Only after he was caught blanking, he tried to find a rationale. You seem to be screening this through some kind of ex post facto personal filtration while simultaneously ignoring the Wikipedia rules. I was only following the rules. In all candor, I think perhaps your "admin status" has gone to your head a bit, with your nannyish comments about "cooling down." I reverted vandalism, simply put. Nothing more. I followed the rules. You didn't. I think you owe me an apology.
Additionally, I was trying to alert an administrator to the situation; however, because you were in such a hurry to summarily block me without any kind of warning or dialog, you made that impossible and compounded the problem. Jeff Fenstermacher 01:01, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Please note that I have initiated an AMA Request for Assistance regarding this matter, as I believe your behavior was unwarranted. Jeff Fenstermacher 01:34, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Samuel, thanks for your reply at the help desk. I put the God-like script in my monobook.js and it worked. What I'm wondering is why when I look at my User contributions I see a bunch of text under entrys that are marked Top, with the last word being "Rollback" and the first one being my username, but its not a link, I cant click on it.
I also tried using this {{subst:User:Voice of All/RC/monobook.js}} script, it works pretty nice and also has two rollback options, one regular and one for "revert as vandalism". I actualy liked this one better. The problem with this one is that my popups dont work correctly with it.
I would like to know if there is a place where I could get instructions on how to install them and use them. Thanks, Shlomke 22:15, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Is there a guide on how to add script (any) to my monobook.js? i just want to know that I'm at least putting it in correctly while i keep playing around with it. thanks again. Shlomke 23:07, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, I put back the godmode-lite.js in my monobook.js using the subst and its working fine. I can also do a rollback from the user contribution page. I'm still left with the problem of seeing this [Shlomke&token=e9dcaec6216aad726a20c8db4b40d3be">rollback] thing under every page where my edit was marked Top in my user contribution page, but I guese its OK, perhaps its like that so I dont rollback my own edits. At least now I have my popups working. Thanks for your help. Shlomke 23:47, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

The emo_music page has been vandilized twice in a row with no reverts done to the page. The original vanalizm was built upon, so I reverted to the page as it was a couple days ago. Just letting you know.

Nice work on Jugendweihe. I added it to my to-do list a couple of weeks ago, when I noticed it was a single sentence, came back to start working on it, and — lo and behold — you'd already done a great job of it.
I can still add a picture of Weltall Erde Mensch, though...

I semi protected his first two targets, but I thought it better to let him batter away at Weight loss and Body mass index rather than have him wander off to somewhere I didn't have bookmarked. He seems to have given up for the moment anyway. -- GraemeL (talk) 23:57, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
You have blocked the above listed IP. This is an AOL IP address, and as such you are preventing many legitimate Wiki editors from going about their work. Unless there is a compelling reason to block the entire IP (i.e. recent significant vandalism or abuse by anonymous users/sockpuppets), I would ask that you please unblock this IP. Thank you. -- Brianvdb 01:40, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Please be aware that when you block, or set up an autoblock, of an IP proxy, you will impact all users (registered or unregistered) who are randomly assigned that IP number by their internet provider. As an AOL user, this happens to me frequently. Please see my User Page User:WBardwin/AOL Block Collection for a record of these blocks. Because of this problem, these IP's should not be blocked for any length of time. Information on the block found below. I would appreciate a prompt release of this block. Thank you. WBardwin 09:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
I have unblocked both IPs. Please note that I did not block either IP, the MediaWiki software did, and I had no way to prevent the autoblocks. See WP:AUTOBLOCK. I'm sorry that you were affected, but I'm afraid this is going to happen to anyone who uses AOL. -- Sam Blanning (talk) 10:14, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome message. I like what you did with your userboxes; how did you get all the images on one line like that? The userbox templates just stack them up. I'd probably have more if they didn't take up so much space. -- Laura S 16:27, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Well she is in the hands of the Gods now. I think it stands as good a chance as anuy other page, if not better. It is still basicaly the same page as you originally nominated, just the information is presented in a different way. I added very little - it was all there. So if it succeeds I hope you, Trebor and Mounties do not feel the glory has been taken from you. When I've done an FA on my own, it usually takes me weeks, or even months, so I don't feel a few hours copyediting is very much, my own (IMO) masterpeice Sicilian Baroque had to have hundreds of very severe copyeditors to finish it off. I've really enjoyed working on the page - if it succeeds, we'll solicit for the main page ASAP Giano | talk 13:58, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Yup, officially diagnosed. Most typo's are actually just typing to fast on a laptop, but I fail to see those errors as easily as other, and mis them when I read it over. I actually do important editing in word to eliminate at least some typo's and errors. KimvdLinde 12:04, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for catching the anonIP vandal on my talk page, just so you're aware that's the 3rd time in less than 12 hours that that exact same edit has been made. I posted the last two on AN/I, but since you caught this, can you just block them? They're posting from a 'Bell Canada' IP, and User:Eyeonvaughan who is currently undergoing a User Conduct RfC and is blocked (for making that same edit) is in the geographic area where that IP may be coming from... If you need me to post it at ANI I can do that to. pm shef 15:31, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
This user has been vandalizing the emo slang and emo music pages, and is now attacking me for reverting his vandalism. Will you please review the situation and take appropriate action?

Can you please unblock my brother? All this vandalism he did was not his, it was Evan Robidoux. Can you please block Evan Robidoux indefinitely, and make Axl Reisdorff A free man?

Hi Sam, thanks for your message. The information came from the candidates themselves who talked candidly about their apprentice experiences on the The Internet Forum ( http://forum.theinternetforum.net/index.php). Basically they talked about things that viewers did not see in BBC's final edit of each show.
One of the administrators collected all their "what you didnt see" information and published them in a PDF file. I obtained one of these and simply listed a few stories as "Trivia". They are true, they were just were not in the final edit of the shows.

Hi, the PDF actually goes for sale as the creator of it donates the money to charity. I can tell you its called "The Apprentice: The Unauthorized Story" and is available for purhcase here:

Hi there. You protected this about 10 days ago. Since WP:SEMI is for dealing with serious, current vandals, I figure it's been more than long enough to unprotect it now, even for a case of gastrichitis. Can I ask you to check your other recent protections and lift them as necessary, also to remember protections in general? CAT:SEMI is nearly 100 items, most of them seem to have been forgotten by the protecting admin. Thanks. - Splash talk 22:14, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
Mr. Blanning, there is big trouble vandal-wise. Remember Axl Reisdorff? He has logged in under PMP and is now Threatening several users- including you. Please block PMP before PMP srrikes again. 67.0.103.237 22:15, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

I am user Jeff Fenstermacher. You blocked my account for reverting blanking vandalism. Per the Wikipedia page on vandalism, "Removing all or significant parts of articles is a common vandal edit." Blanking is vandalism, simply put. It's not a content dispute. It's vandalism. Please be more familiar with your own rule system. 207.69.137.36 23:48, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
This is user Jeff Fenstermacher again. You wrote "Removing part of a page with a good-faith reason is not vandalism." Sorry, that contradicts specific, written Wikipedia policy as I quoted above. The way to resolve the matter was on the talk page, which I tried to initiate. The other user was blanking. Not editing, blanking. 207.69.137.36 23:58, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
You wrote: "If you have a good-faith and reasonable justification for removing a section, it isn't vandalism. He had initiated a discussion." I'm sorry, that's not what happened. Look at the history of the article. The first time he blanked the entire section without any explanation. As defined on the Wikipedia vandalism page, blanking a section in that manner without explanation is vandalism. Only after he was caught blanking, he tried to find a rationale. You seem to be screening this through some kind of ex post facto personal filtration while simultaneously ignoring the Wikipedia rules. I was only following the rules. In all candor, I think perhaps your "admin status" has gone to your head a bit, with your nannyish comments about "cooling down." I reverted vandalism, simply put. Nothing more. I followed the rules. You didn't. I think you owe me an apology.
Additionally, I was trying to alert an administrator to the situation; however, because you were in such a hurry to summarily block me without any kind of warning or dialog, you made that impossible and compounded the problem. Jeff Fenstermacher 01:01, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Please note that I have initiated an AMA Request for Assistance regarding this matter, as I believe your behavior was unwarranted. Jeff Fenstermacher 01:34, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Samuel, thanks for your reply at the help desk. I put the God-like script in my monobook.js and it worked. What I'm wondering is why when I look at my User contributions I see a bunch of text under entrys that are marked Top, with the last word being "Rollback" and the first one being my username, but its not a link, I cant click on it.
I also tried using this {{subst:User:Voice of All/RC/monobook.js}} script, it works pretty nice and also has two rollback options, one regular and one for "revert as vandalism". I actualy liked this one better. The problem with this one is that my popups dont work correctly with it.
I would like to know if there is a place where I could get instructions on how to install them and use them. Thanks, Shlomke 22:15, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Is there a guide on how to add script (any) to my monobook.js? i just want to know that I'm at least putting it in correctly while i keep playing around with it. thanks again. Shlomke 23:07, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, I put back the godmode-lite.js in my monobook.js using the subst and its working fine. I can also do a rollback from the user contribution page. I'm still left with the problem of seeing this [Shlomke&token=e9dcaec6216aad726a20c8db4b40d3be">rollback] thing under every page where my edit was marked Top in my user contribution page, but I guese its OK, perhaps its like that so I dont rollback my own edits. At least now I have my popups working. Thanks for your help. Shlomke 23:47, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

No, not in the least- that's essentially what I assumed would happen; I just figured it was probably best to leave him blocked until arbcom made their decision, as he hadn't at all modified his behavior in the interrim. So no, I have no problems at all with the block being lifted. Cheers --

Why would you cut out the following from the 666 listing, BUT leave in other commercial plugs?
BOTH the events below are receiving INTERNATIONAL headlines... I'd think that makes them worthy of an add.
A Church of Satan will be holding a "Satanic Mass" on June 6, 2006 C.E. in Los Angeles. Church of Satan Rev. Shane Bugbee and Radio Free Satan will be ringing in 6/6/06 with SATAN'S ROCKIN' 666 EVE on June 5th in Los Angeles.
