Hello Mr. Jones. I am not an administrator. I am only writing this so that you know. Some people have been finding that your... contributions have not been... well... up to standered. You have added edits to quite a few pages and I am now coming to see that you are not properly adding content to this encyclopedia. Please stop adding unhelpful information to the site. -- Cheers! :) Zazzer 23:15, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Graphoarchive1, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the
criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please
see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{
hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Metropolitan90 19:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
here 12431321234123412342134 Since you don't seem to understand how to archive correctly, I will restore your talk page. Danski14 19:59, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

In the future I would apreciate it if you could provide more detail in your edit summaries, especially the ones that don't seem to make much sense (e.g. your recent edits to Gavrilo Princip) -- Michael Lynn 01:48, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that you have copied a large portion of my user boxes including some personalized ones. Of course anyone is alowed to use the stock user boxes (and even personalized ones) but some of these do not pertain to you...at all. I was wondering wether this was an accident or you are trying to make some sort of point. NeoFreak 20:38, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
Please do not
delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at
Talk:Terry Goodkind; this is considered
vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the

Yay! My first barnstar. Thanks a lot man. =) – Lantoka ( talk) 02:14, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Your edit of the Ra'zac talk page ( [1]) was supposedly to remove Vandalism. But in my books, that wasn't removing vandalism. First clue is that it had sat there without question for over two months. Secondly, many people put drafts of what they will/could add to the main article. Just look at some of the other Talk Pages for the Inheritance Trilogy. For example, Talk:Derivative natures in the Inheritance Trilogy. UnaLaguna 06:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Hey Mr. Jones,
Re: your recent comments on the Terry Goodkind page, watch the incivility. Just a friendly warning - as the tags at the top of the page state, Terry Goodkind's biopage is a source of much contention and regular contributions can require a cool head.
Thanks,

Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. As a member of the Wikipedia community, I would like to remind you of Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy for editors, which you appear to have violated at Magic (paranormal). In the meantime, please be bold and continue contributing to Wikipedia. Justin Eiler 03:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi, remember to put chat comments on the discussion page, not in the actual article! Fuzzypeg ☻ 00:30, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
I notice that NeoFreak has already mentioned your barnstars to you. You gave one of them to yourself (which, although it is inappropriate, isn't a terrible offence), but you have copied other peoples' barnstars from their pages while keeping the signature of the giving user intact. In other words, you are saying that people who didn't give you barnstars did. This is disingenuous. I am going to remove the barnstars you copied from other pages in the next day or so if you don't remove them yourself. It's not right to claim that a user gave you acknowledgement when they did not, especially without their consent. Leebo 86 14:18, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Your edits are appallingly bad, and I notice you are doing some quite questionable things like altering the edit time in your signatures and generally trying to mess with the Wikipedia infrastructure. When you archived Talk:Magic (paranormal), for instance, you took all current discussions, including the most recent comments, and replaced them with inanities and grossly mis-typed text. I noticed something very similar when you "awarded" me a barnstar; I felt like you were actually trying to mock me.
At the moment I'm assuming you're not malicious, just very bad at typing and not having much idea of how to do things yet in wikipedia.
Therefore, I will request that you not attempt any administration-related activity like archiving talk pages, editing time-stamps, moving pages, or any complex editing of templates etc.; please limit yourself to editing articles and discussion pages. There are plenty of other editors who are competent at making these edits should they need doing, and there's no need to attempt this yourself, until you're a bit more experienced.
Please play nice on the discussion pages, and don't alter or split anyone else's posts. Also, please don't create excessive numbers of headings; if you're starting a completely new discussion subject then create one heading, and then continue the discussion under the same heading.
And please use a spell-checker before you post your edits or comments. Your typing is atrocious. Sorry if I'm not complimenting you, but you really need to know that your edits so far have not been helpful. Fuzzypeg ☻ 00:52, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
I have no idea why you accused me of vandalism, but I hope you have the decency to apologize. -- Mgunn 03:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Neither Mgunn's nor my edits were vandalism. Please read up on vandalism before you accuse people of vandalism again. You have been doing it a lot. Thanks. Martinphi ( Talk Ψ Contribs) 04:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Don't edit what other people have written on your userpage, even if it is just the title. These Wikipedians know what they're talking about, and they don't need the person they're addressing to mess things up and make them seem more spiteful than they actually are. All you need to do is read what they're saying and follow any advice given. What you're doing is the same as re-writing letters to yourself. I don't know about you, but I and most other Wikipedians have the sense not to. Neofreak has already mentioned this here. Even if it's your own talk page, it's still vandalism. UnaLaguna 06:20, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Head over to the talk page. We need to discuss what we should do with the "language" section and that seems like a better place to discuss it than here.
If you look at Category:Queen Elizabeth Islands you will see that it's a sub-category of Category:Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Category:Islands of the Northwest Territories and Category:Islands of Qikiqtaaluk Region. The last is a sub-category of Category:Islands of Nunavut. So by having it in "Queen Elizabeth Islands" then it is in all the other categories (without the clutter) and it's with other islands in the same cluster. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 10:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
What is "

I agree that there isn't much positive stuff in the Critical Reception section of this article, but I wouldn't say your edit [2] helped. In fact, I went as far as reverting it. Poor spelling aside ( Firefox has a built in spell-checker if you're in the market for something to help), the fact that "many games can bee enyjoyable" is, you guessed it, unsourced. If you want to add something positive to balance the argument out, which I think would be a very good idea, then find a positive review from a reputable source (user reviews don't count: professional ones from, for example, IGN and Gamespy, do) and mention that.

Hi there you are the King of the Copy editors?!!!!. Please could you sort out the very rough translation for Harry Piel. Cheers Smith-Jones ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 10:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
Cool thanks. He is quite a notable German actor of the 1930s and 1940s I think so should have more detail. It is a tad lazy of me but I am very occupied!! with devleoping the List of films. List of Austrian films etc. Cheers for the favor. I really appreciate it ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 20:05, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
I know I just made a few improvments too -I saw you r changes earlier in the recent changes and had some spare ime to check it!. There was still a few minor awkward phrases but reads much better now!!! Thanks for your help. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 22:22, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
Have you actually read anything on the subject of assessment? Have you ignored the big bold link to the Assessment page next to the thing you edited? As I understand it, you're not meant to wander along to an article and say "What ho! This article is definitely A-class!" and change it yourself, without discussing it with anybody else. It's meant to go up for assessment first! Something you didn't do. I reverted your edit to the talk page, and it's back to B-class.
Additionally, I don't think Dragon Riders complies with the A-class criteria in the first place. I don't think the lead is satisfactory, some of the heading aren't punctuated properly, it deals with the subject in an in-universe style (ignoring any criticism or the like from the real world), and has no references. An A-class article needs all of these things fixed. None of these are. Again, if you'd followed the big bold link to the Assessment page and read it, you'd have noticed this.
So please don't wander off and edit the talk page to change the rating. I noticed you did it on the Eragon article, changing the importance of the book on the Wikiproject literature section to "high", presumably without prior consultation. If Wikipedia operated in the way you're going about and messing with Article Ratings, we'd have far too many A-class articles. UnaLaguna 07:07, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
