How can you change [1] back and delete the discussion page. You have only contributed to vandalism by ensuring that non admin users who act within all guidlines are attacked by admins and erased. It ensures that users see the rules as applying only to those without admin rights. I suggest you follow the rules you claim to be enforcing. Helpthisisnotright 01:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
.. for reverting the USF vandal who just hit my talk page again. Appreciate it :) - Alison ☺ 23:41, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for reverting my the vandalism on my page too. That's actually my first. Well, my first "five" if you count all the edits he made. MarkBuckles (talk) 00:05, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, Antandrus, for dealing with that Evergreen Montenegro guy editing Joseph Haydn. He seems to have backed off.
It reminds me of the frustrating time I used to have editing Haydn and folk music a few years ago -- some nationalist Croatian editor did all sorts of silly stuff, like looking up and counting all the Hajdin's in the Croatian telephone directory. Cheers, Opus33 03:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
P.S. Do you know much about Gregor Werner?
I have backed down. I too agree these silly edit wars are a waste of time. But one has to admit isn't it slighty odd that Joseph Haydn was born among the Croatian community who settled in Austria, spoke Croatian, was influenced by Croatian music (some 30 songs)and is believed to be Croat by other websites and books. Why does Wikipedia hide this?
Eg Look at soccer player Andreas Ivanschitz who is a Austrain International.
He's got a Croat origin and guess what he's real name isn't Ivanschitz.
Ivanschitz is Austrosized from a Croat name Ivancic.
So to have Hajdin a Croat name changed into Haydn is not unusual.
Enjoy the music
Evergreen Montenegro1 04:28, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
OK FAIR ENOUGH,
Understand now. People assume him as Croat because some strong evidence points in that direction. Still intersting enough to note in the article i think. His Croatian influence that is. The fact he spoke Croatian is one huge factor. I have asked another user about it User Kubura.
I still think the chances of the Hajdin and Haydn last names being linked are still high, if not for him but for other Croats in Austria..
No way would anyone think Ivanschitz is of Croat origin, but when you look into it you find out.
History is all about pov to me. I think a Russian historian would have a different view to WW2 than the American. So to say Haydn wasn't Croatian could well be one such diff pov
Take Care Evergreen Montenegro1 04:56, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I think my prior word sounded a tad negative to u, so i changed it. History is pov ...each and every country in the world has a bias to history and how they contributed. I think some historians would prefer Haydn to be Austrian and will go to great lengths to have people believe it. Still the fact Haydn spoke Croatian is hard to cover up.
Evergreen Montenegro1 03:23, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
look i'm really sorry about that warning you had to give me, won't happen again!

Just to let you know that your talk page will never be vandalized again because all the IP addresses used to vandalize your talk page, got blocked from editing and your talk page has been semi-protected.

Hi, I was about to warn IP User:88.110.7.181 for vandalism on your talk page when I looked at the block log, noticing that you have blocked the IP after one edit, who has received Zero warnings or messages on their talk page, at the time. While the IP's edits on your talk page are clearly considered deliberate attempts to comprimise the integrity of your talk page and Wikipedia, I don't see more severity in the case, like blatant personal attacks, defamatory edits, trolling, etc. Please forgive if it's not my place to comment on this. I know about vandalism, but I was told warnings are nessesary before blocking, execpt in extreme cases, and I didn't see what was extreme about the IP's edit one edit, as well as the importance of assuming good faith in others.-- Wikipedier ( talk • contribs) 03:03, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Also, what threw me off, is usually admins. explain that it's a sock of a banned user in their block log.-- Wikipedier ( talk • contribs) 03:21, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Oh I see. A banned user using IP ranges, and the IP I am talking about is just part of one range, but the person, whoever he/she is editing under, has been warned and contines(kind of like with Cplot). I don't really understand how IP ranges work. I'm sorry about that mistake, and my patience would have been well past if I were you. Before, I'm the one who has assumed zero good faith in others who appear to vandalize, and have worked to improve on that mistake.-- Wikipedier ( talk • contribs) 03:17, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi there, me again. Hoping your spring has sprung well so far. It's beginning to get there, a little, up here in America's Tailpipe. Now then: There is a dispute simmering on the Szell talk page about his name. Some feel it should be George plain & simple and some feel he has to be Gyorgy, "perhaps better knkown as" or something along those lines. I fall into the George camp; that "perhaps" sounds very weaselly to me. You have any opinions or advice? Merci! -- Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 12:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you!! Much appreciate the compliment. Yes, the only reason I keep it in user space is because I wanted it to represent a personal POV -- rather like Raul's Laws (even though others have added to those). I think I started the page in response to the repetitive situation I'd seen of good editors eventually getting fed up and flaming out -- leaving the project in anger -- and not recognizing that this is just the "narrative curve" of all human experience. I'm increasingly thinking that the future of Wikipedia depends on us understanding and managing conflict in the community, as it gets larger.

Thanks for the rvv on my page! Crested Penguin 00:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
The main problem is Wikipedia is free to edit but at the same time some people police the pages as if they were some sort of sheriff. It's a bit of a joke. If Joseph Haydn, Marco Polo etc...have some link to Croatia I think this needs to be mentioned. It's just silly not to.
Eg Diego Maradona has Croatian blood, his grandmother was born on Korcula(Dalmatia-Croatia) and went to live in Argentina. Diego has a daughter and mother named Dalma, named after the the Dalmatian coast. Now when someone added this under Trivia in Diego's article it was deleted.
Why? If we have proof ..add to article end of story. We have proof that Haydn and Polo has Croatian blood, why hide it???

I have misgivings about the way the Orbicle case is being handled. Judging by La muette de Portici, editors are now searching through any article Orbicle contributed to, looking for similarities in phrasing to published sources, not just outright plagiarism of whole paragraphs. Is this intended? Does WP have a practical definition of plagiarism, and if so was Orbicle told about it? I see you are involved. Doubtless you know much more about the case than I do. Am I wrong to be concerned? - Kleinzach 10:30, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

You asked on my talk page if I could find "consensus" on which pieces are by Josquin and which aren't? My goodness! I'm a musicologist not a miracle worker! :)
The graffiti aren't visible from the ground--you need permissions to go up to the loft to take the photos. To me, it's not that convincing, but it is definitely a great image. The ones I have are a little blurry, but fine for 300x200 or whatnot. I don't have the big book of Josquin. -- Myke Cuthbert 18:29, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: My links on "Love at First Sight" identified as "spam"
To whomever: My links are not spam. They are not to be removed and identified as SPAM. Thank you for your "warning." Please advise the user in question that my "links" are not spam. I have linked to my own Web sites, none of which have any commercial purpose. I own the copyright of all the materials on my Web sites, several of which have been linked by others from Wikipedia.
Please contact me via e-mail. My own "vision of love at first sight" on what are carefully designed, general audience pages with no commercial purpose do not deserve such a designation.
I will rename all of the files that others have linked to my other Web pages and "ignore" you, otherwise. The success of Wikipedia will be found in the willingness of other users to carefully consider the outcome of their actions. One outcome for this Web Site may catch you, whoever you are, by surprise. The Web is a truly shared resource, but netranges are all owned. Wikipedia owns none of these ranges, the last time that I checked.
I will add one or two other links to this page that point to other Web sites, and see what you do.
Later... Links, lovely ones at that, gone. The pages are, on the other hand, forever, as are the memories.

You are hardly the final word on any subject. And, I expect, never the "first." But Ambiquous is my word. Not at all to be confused with ambiguous. Perhaps it is not pertinent here, or perhaps it lies somewhere at the interstice of nomothetic and idiographic.

láska na první pohled - free to all, but obscure to most. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Columba-kos (talk • contribs).
You are free to feel that way if you wish. I am here to build an encyclopedia, and part of that job involves removing the clutter left by people who are here for other purposes, such as self-promotion. If that activity is "pathetic" to you, then I suggest finding a less "pathetic" place to promote yourself. Most sincerely, Antandrus (talk) 04:46, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Dear Antandarus: Were I interested in "self-promotion," I would have used my own name. As it is, I had no objective in mind when I entered the links that I did for [h t t p://c h r a n e n k a.net chranenka] or others. When I later added links to [h t t p ://m a e v e -m o d e l.net] Maeve Coughlan's or [h t t p : / / s a b r i n a - m o d e l . n e t] Sabrina Gotman's memorial pages to indicate the profundity of love at first sight, and, most notably, how it can extend very easily to those dearly departed, only to see them removed, I knew that I was witnessing a depressing double standard at work. Wikipedia is dependent on the good intentions of anonymous participants such as myself. NASTY QUIP SNIPPED
Hi, we are an encyclopedia, not a link repository. "Good intentions" are a red herring. All people adding links to their pet websites have "good intentions." All people adding pages on themselves have "good intentions." We have policies that we have developed over the course of many years which guide our actions here. Please read our external links policy and quit making this into an ad hominem case against me, or other administrators. And please do not make personal attacks.
I am quite aware of your activity for the last several days, and was hoping you would stop, but apparently you haven't given up trying to insert links to your sites. Pages like Dearly loved one are inappropriate for an encyclopedia. ...Antandrus
Columba Replied, was excised, and replies again...
No more or less than many other pages found here. Perhaps you should make improvements to "Dearly loved one" if you have the heart for it.
In addition, I take your final sentence as a threat that we will have something other than "peace within our time" if I continue to uphold Wikipedia policy and remove your external links, yes? Like the threat you made here? Do you understand that this is not acceptable behavior on Wikipedia? Antandrus (talk) 00:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
Columba again
Erm... rather aggressive in that last edit. Some people never learn. Those are my words, Ant... My comments. All saved Truth? I like most of what I find here. But I'm as sensitive as you are on the subject of being identified as spam. Not one of my pages need be so identified. If they were spam, I would not have pictures of my dearly loved ones at the top of the search engine image results, To wit:
My girl side by side with another eternal girl, Canadian super model in the making, Darla Baker.
Links excised:
Now Antandrus. I could do what I suggested. Lead you down the garden path to the editing hell place. Pull a favour out of the hat of ole Beelzebumbum 'imself. Single message left out there. I don't want to. But I could. My name is Nicky Haflinger. I punch code the way some others eat salty french fries at McObese Restaurant.
But on the personal links subject: Please note. Domain names are the soul of w3, and will last as long as they are renewed. Men poches sont deepo, peepo. Don't you know? The world is full of messed up shiggies that do spam messages to make money as an alternative to working the car parks. Perhaps they lack the allure, or possibly, have contracted something. As for you, and your reaction to my words. Please, let it go. Why object to my contributions and remove all of the positive ones out of spite. I'm not interested in making any point, by the way, except perhaps that the quality of love is unquantifiable. Your only alternative at this point is to avoid the subject altogether and remove the bland reference to the subject made by some other contributor... "Love at first sight."
meta name="description" content="Ashley Loves Forever Darla and it was Love at first sight, Láska na první pohled, Le coup de foudre, Leibe auf den ersten Blick. Leave these matters to Ashley Struan. There's a cat who knows something about the subject without having to make references to make a point. Worthy of research? No, love is something that you have, or don't. Ask anybody who suffers from the unrequited version. It's in the eyes.
Why play games? I am hardly some barely literate stooge whose words are truly spam. Since there's no way that you could have checked all of the list of links, I can only assume that you just deleted them without analysing them.
You have mail. Mak (talk) 03:00, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
c-k replies:
OF course, I have read your policies. But they are very obscure. Hard to follow, even after repeated analysis.
I took the drug references out. But, clonazepam is a truly luxy drug. Almost as good as c-sati, and relatively cheap.
And what's wrong with the occasional external link on these pages? I suppose the alternative is to upload pictures, and I will do so. As an endnote, "Dearly loved one" has no external links, except to a page where the words will last forever. Just like a good love story.
And, don't worry about the threats thing. Wouldn't do this to you. There are too many truly evil types to contend with. Just a complaint, in the finale, about being misidentified.
Let it go. I won't say that I'm desperate to, but this is getting a bit lame.

How can you change [1] back and delete the discussion page. You have only contributed to vandalism by ensuring that non admin users who act within all guidlines are attacked by admins and erased. It ensures that users see the rules as applying only to those without admin rights. I suggest you follow the rules you claim to be enforcing. Helpthisisnotright 01:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Antandrus, for dealing with that Evergreen Montenegro guy editing Joseph Haydn. He seems to have backed off.
It reminds me of the frustrating time I used to have editing Haydn and folk music a few years ago -- some nationalist Croatian editor did all sorts of silly stuff, like looking up and counting all the Hajdin's in the Croatian telephone directory. Cheers, Opus33 03:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
P.S. Do you know much about Gregor Werner?
I have backed down. I too agree these silly edit wars are a waste of time. But one has to admit isn't it slighty odd that Joseph Haydn was born among the Croatian community who settled in Austria, spoke Croatian, was influenced by Croatian music (some 30 songs)and is believed to be Croat by other websites and books. Why does Wikipedia hide this?
Eg Look at soccer player Andreas Ivanschitz who is a Austrain International.
He's got a Croat origin and guess what he's real name isn't Ivanschitz.
Ivanschitz is Austrosized from a Croat name Ivancic.
So to have Hajdin a Croat name changed into Haydn is not unusual.
Enjoy the music
Evergreen Montenegro1 04:28, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
OK FAIR ENOUGH,
Understand now. People assume him as Croat because some strong evidence points in that direction. Still intersting enough to note in the article i think. His Croatian influence that is. The fact he spoke Croatian is one huge factor. I have asked another user about it User Kubura.
I still think the chances of the Hajdin and Haydn last names being linked are still high, if not for him but for other Croats in Austria..
No way would anyone think Ivanschitz is of Croat origin, but when you look into it you find out.
History is all about pov to me. I think a Russian historian would have a different view to WW2 than the American. So to say Haydn wasn't Croatian could well be one such diff pov
Take Care Evergreen Montenegro1 04:56, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I think my prior word sounded a tad negative to u, so i changed it. History is pov ...each and every country in the world has a bias to history and how they contributed. I think some historians would prefer Haydn to be Austrian and will go to great lengths to have people believe it. Still the fact Haydn spoke Croatian is hard to cover up.

Hi, I was about to warn IP User:88.110.7.181 for vandalism on your talk page when I looked at the block log, noticing that you have blocked the IP after one edit, who has received Zero warnings or messages on their talk page, at the time. While the IP's edits on your talk page are clearly considered deliberate attempts to comprimise the integrity of your talk page and Wikipedia, I don't see more severity in the case, like blatant personal attacks, defamatory edits, trolling, etc. Please forgive if it's not my place to comment on this. I know about vandalism, but I was told warnings are nessesary before blocking, execpt in extreme cases, and I didn't see what was extreme about the IP's edit one edit, as well as the importance of assuming good faith in others.-- Wikipedier ( talk • contribs) 03:03, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh I see. A banned user using IP ranges, and the IP I am talking about is just part of one range, but the person, whoever he/she is editing under, has been warned and contines(kind of like with Cplot). I don't really understand how IP ranges work. I'm sorry about that mistake, and my patience would have been well past if I were you. Before, I'm the one who has assumed zero good faith in others who appear to vandalize, and have worked to improve on that mistake.-- Wikipedier ( talk • contribs) 03:17, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you!! Much appreciate the compliment. Yes, the only reason I keep it in user space is because I wanted it to represent a personal POV -- rather like Raul's Laws (even though others have added to those). I think I started the page in response to the repetitive situation I'd seen of good editors eventually getting fed up and flaming out -- leaving the project in anger -- and not recognizing that this is just the "narrative curve" of all human experience. I'm increasingly thinking that the future of Wikipedia depends on us understanding and managing conflict in the community, as it gets larger.

The main problem is Wikipedia is free to edit but at the same time some people police the pages as if they were some sort of sheriff. It's a bit of a joke. If Joseph Haydn, Marco Polo etc...have some link to Croatia I think this needs to be mentioned. It's just silly not to.
Eg Diego Maradona has Croatian blood, his grandmother was born on Korcula(Dalmatia-Croatia) and went to live in Argentina. Diego has a daughter and mother named Dalma, named after the the Dalmatian coast. Now when someone added this under Trivia in Diego's article it was deleted.
Why? If we have proof ..add to article end of story. We have proof that Haydn and Polo has Croatian blood, why hide it???

I have misgivings about the way the Orbicle case is being handled. Judging by La muette de Portici, editors are now searching through any article Orbicle contributed to, looking for similarities in phrasing to published sources, not just outright plagiarism of whole paragraphs. Is this intended? Does WP have a practical definition of plagiarism, and if so was Orbicle told about it? I see you are involved. Doubtless you know much more about the case than I do.

Re: My links on "Love at First Sight" identified as "spam"
To whomever: My links are not spam. They are not to be removed and identified as SPAM. Thank you for your "warning." Please advise the user in question that my "links" are not spam. I have linked to my own Web sites, none of which have any commercial purpose. I own the copyright of all the materials on my Web sites, several of which have been linked by others from Wikipedia.
Please contact me via e-mail. My own "vision of love at first sight" on what are carefully designed, general audience pages with no commercial purpose do not deserve such a designation.
I will rename all of the files that others have linked to my other Web pages and "ignore" you, otherwise. The success of Wikipedia will be found in the willingness of other users to carefully consider the outcome of their actions. One outcome for this Web Site may catch you, whoever you are, by surprise. The Web is a truly shared resource, but netranges are all owned. Wikipedia owns none of these ranges, the last time that I checked.
I will add one or two other links to this page that point to other Web sites, and see what you do.
Later... Links, lovely ones at that, gone. The pages are, on the other hand, forever, as are the memories.

You are hardly the final word on any subject. And, I expect, never the "first." But Ambiquous is my word. Not at all to be confused with ambiguous. Perhaps it is not pertinent here, or perhaps it lies somewhere at the interstice of nomothetic and idiographic.

You are free to feel that way if you wish. I am here to build an encyclopedia, and part of that job involves removing the clutter left by people who are here for other purposes, such as self-promotion. If that activity is "pathetic" to you, then I suggest finding a less "pathetic" place to promote yourself. Most sincerely, Antandrus (talk) 04:46, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Dear Antandarus: Were I interested in "self-promotion," I would have used my own name. As it is, I had no objective in mind when I entered the links that I did for [h t t p://c h r a n e n k a.net chranenka] or others. When I later added links to [h t t p ://m a e v e -m o d e l.net] Maeve Coughlan's or [h t t p : / / s a b r i n a - m o d e l . n e t] Sabrina Gotman's memorial pages to indicate the profundity of love at first sight, and, most notably, how it can extend very easily to those dearly departed, only to see them removed, I knew that I was witnessing a depressing double standard at work. Wikipedia is dependent on the good intentions of anonymous participants such as myself. NASTY QUIP SNIPPED
Hi, we are an encyclopedia, not a link repository. "Good intentions" are a red herring. All people adding links to their pet websites have "good intentions." All people adding pages on themselves have "good intentions." We have policies that we have developed over the course of many years which guide our actions here. Please read our external links policy and quit making this into an ad hominem case against me, or other administrators. And please do not make personal attacks.
I am quite aware of your activity for the last several days, and was hoping you would stop, but apparently you haven't given up trying to insert links to your sites. Pages like Dearly loved one are inappropriate for an encyclopedia. ...Antandrus
Columba Replied, was excised, and replies again...
No more or less than many other pages found here. Perhaps you should make improvements to "Dearly loved one" if you have the heart for it.
In addition, I take your final sentence as a threat that we will have something other than "peace within our time" if I continue to uphold Wikipedia policy and remove your external links, yes? Like the threat you made here? Do you understand that this is not acceptable behavior on Wikipedia? Antandrus (talk) 00:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Erm... rather aggressive in that last edit. Some people never learn. Those are my words, Ant... My comments. All saved Truth? I like most of what I find here. But I'm as sensitive as you are on the subject of being identified as spam. Not one of my pages need be so identified. If they were spam, I would not have pictures of my dearly loved ones at the top of the search engine image results, To wit:
My girl side by side with another eternal girl, Canadian super model in the making, Darla Baker.
Links excised:
Now Antandrus. I could do what I suggested. Lead you down the garden path to the editing hell place. Pull a favour out of the hat of ole Beelzebumbum 'imself. Single message left out there. I don't want to. But I could. My name is Nicky Haflinger. I punch code the way some others eat salty french fries at McObese Restaurant.
But on the personal links subject: Please note. Domain names are the soul of w3, and will last as long as they are renewed. Men poches sont deepo, peepo. Don't you know? The world is full of messed up shiggies that do spam messages to make money as an alternative to working the car parks. Perhaps they lack the allure, or possibly, have contracted something. As for you, and your reaction to my words. Please, let it go. Why object to my contributions and remove all of the positive ones out of spite. I'm not interested in making any point, by the way, except perhaps that the quality of love is unquantifiable. Your only alternative at this point is to avoid the subject altogether and remove the bland reference to the subject made by some other contributor... "Love at first sight."
meta name="description" content="Ashley Loves Forever Darla and it was Love at first sight, Láska na první pohled, Le coup de foudre, Leibe auf den ersten Blick. Leave these matters to Ashley Struan. There's a cat who knows something about the subject without having to make references to make a point. Worthy of research? No, love is something that you have, or don't. Ask anybody who suffers from the unrequited version. It's in the eyes.
Why play games? I am hardly some barely literate stooge whose words are truly spam. Since there's no way that you could have checked all of the list of links, I can only assume that you just deleted them without analysing them.

OF course, I have read your policies. But they are very obscure. Hard to follow, even after repeated analysis.
I took the drug references out. But, clonazepam is a truly luxy drug. Almost as good as c-sati, and relatively cheap.
And what's wrong with the occasional external link on these pages? I suppose the alternative is to upload pictures, and I will do so. As an endnote, "Dearly loved one" has no external links, except to a page where the words will last forever. Just like a good love story.
And, don't worry about the threats thing. Wouldn't do this to you. There are too many truly evil types to contend with. Just a complaint, in the finale, about being misidentified.
Let it go. I won't say that I'm desperate to, but this is getting a bit lame.
