Hi, Atrain, Regarding a recent message I just noticed regarding some apparent vandalism on the wiki page for "Chef". I can confidently say that the vandalism did NOT come from my end and the IP has either been spoofed, or by chance somebody has had my IP before and now I've been allocated it. More proof of this is the vandalism, which I noticed was the phrase added to the end of a paragraph, "i love your mom" - I'm Australian, I don't spell that word, short for mother, with an 'o'. Australians spell it with a 'u', "mum".
Just wanting to clear things up, I see wiki vandalism as just childish behaviour and I don't condone it at all. —The preceding

I would like to draw attention to Sc400 ( talk · contribs) being the same person Sc4900 ( talk · contribs). I have posted to ANI, as before.
Cross-post:
I had previously pointed out the edits of Sc4900 ( talk · contribs) to ANI. Editor was subsequently blocked.
Clearly, this editor is trying to disrupt Wikipedia by inserting fictional creations and unsourced material. Please stop this vandal.
You had blocked him last time, so I thought I'd drop you a note as well. Regards,

I have no desire to "help" E. I haven't voted to support him because I haven't even reviewed the candidate yet, I replied to the opposes because their reasons were clearly invalid. I don't have any particular interest in getting E the mop, but, as someone who likes Wikipedia, I try to encourage people to use more common sense in their votes on RfA. Do I really need to personally like someone to want his RfA not to be opposed for ridiculous reasons? -- Rory096 05:46, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

I have apologized and been punished by being blocked by you for three hours, which was a punishment I deserved for being childish enouigh to fued with Haizum after being baited about being a Lesbian. He is now watching me and adding comments and general nasty items to my contributions such as Billie Jean King. This is not fair and I feel as if I am being stalked in WIkipedia world. HE appears to have a past of general Trolling and fueding with others. Please tell him TRUCE GO AWAY I do not wish to deal with Haizum anymore Cr8tiv 17:52, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Fair enough, but ask yourself, why would a man whose first language is plainly not English (his inflections and word choice are mechanical and have a Borat "now I speak English good like fellow American) style and Mr. Haizum history of Wiki edits are mostly political have not really involved American Sports. Suddenly a day after our Fued he takes an interest in Women's Tennis? Cr8tiv 20:06, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

That edit is fine and it is good. Tracy Mcgrady and Oliver Miller are not point forwards. That edit didn't violate any policies. Most of Tmacrockets0115's edits are good edits (except for the ones on LeBron James but that is just once and doesn't deserve a block), there are no reasons for Tmacrockets0115 to be blocked this time. Also his or her sock Kobetmacyao is not used anymore. See the contributions of that account. Brave warrior 17:25, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
I am just saying that Mcgrady is a swingman and not a point forward, is there anything not clear about that? Tmac removed those two names because they are not point forwards and not because he doesn't think those two are notable. That edit was good and I am sure anyone will agree with me on that. Brave warrior 19:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
You may want to make it permanent--there's a user named Score1forthelittleguy ( talk · contribs), and he may well try to recreate it once the salting expires in October. Blueboy 96 21:19, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
Hey friend, regarding this [4]: a slight correction actually it is in the the Illiad and also found elsewhere in Greek literature that states Patroclus was Achilles' cousin, this is not an invention of Hollywood movies. Their family tree in Greek mythology since ancient times has them related. According to Greek mythology, Achilles and Patroclus are related on their respective paternal sides: Aegina was Patroclus' paternal grandmother, and Achilles' great-grandmother. Therefore, Patroclus was first cousin to Achilles' father Peleus, and Achilles' first cousin once removed. In other ancient Greek stories the two were first cousins and even uncle/nephew: Apollodorus tells us that Patroclus was the son of Menoetius and Polymele, older half sister of Achilles and daughter of King Peleus. Even the Encyclopaedia Britannica states as much in their books and unlike Wiki no one can edit Encyclopaedia Britannica but credible scholars and historians:"According to Homer, Achilles was brought up by his mother at Phthia with his cousin and inseparable companion Patroclus". [5]; [6]
Also Anthony Bulloch. Dept. of Classics, University of California, Berkeley states the following: "The real Achilles had a close friend, an ‘alter ego’, his cousin Patroclus, who died on the battlefield of Troy wearing Achilles’ armor, while standing in for Achilles as the latter sat out the war in his tent after quarelling furiously with the Greek leader Agamemnon." [7]
So as you can see Patroclus and Achilles were cousins is an ancient Greek mythology fact and actually true. Who would have thought a Hollywood movie would get one aspect of historical elements correctly and still not be believed. LOL!. Anyway's just wanted to clear that up. Cheers and take care. ;-) Mala 01 August 2007
do you go to clutch fans? If you do, do you think t-mac is a point forward?
Well i did see a guy named A-Train over at clutchFans.

Hi,
If you're going to rename the article, please do so by using MediaWiki's move function rather than just copying the content to a new article. That way, the page history is preserved. I've tagged the new pages for deletion; once they're removed, the article can be renamed properly. Chris Cunningham 20:10, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry if I asked a question in the wrong place or commented on a subject you feel I am not qualified to. I acted in good faith by warning a user who I felt had breached WP:NPA, I followed the instructions for warnings at WP:TT. I then acted in good faith by asking for admins' opinions about my use of a template, following that user's deletion of the warning, and his comment in the edit summary. I shan't be using ANI anymore, in part at least because of the tone of your comments to me there. DuncanHill 14:18, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
I had never before seen it suggested by anyone anywhere that the TT templates should not be used in warning experienced editors. If i was guilty of the mindless policy wonkery of which you accused me, then perhaps I would have come accross an obscure essay suggesting they are not used - but as I had only read the instructions at WP:TT then I hadn't. Rest assured, it is not solely your incivility that has driven me away from ANI, there are plenty of other admins at least as rude as you. DuncanHill 15:47, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Sod it, I came here to try to explain how I felt and why I acted as I did. It all seems rather pointless, there's no point complaining about your incivility, no point complaining about Fredrick day's incivility, and certainly no point expecting an admin to try being helpful. I'll just try to keep away from anywhere I might come across you in future. DuncanHill 16:16, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Could you please block or at least suspend the open proxy for eductaional services IP: 205.127.36.5 ?

........... I think you handled it well personally, someone made a comment and you gave your opinion, in a very fair manor I might add. I'm not sure why Duncan reacted so badly, I was a little shocked when I saw it coming up on my watchlist. I think it's a case of letting him calm down in his own time and I'm sure he will see things a lot clearer. Anyway, how are things? Ryan Postlethwaite 14:27, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
