Hello J. I saw your edit summary on User talk:Rtvybo787 about the removal of an active block message. I was unaware of that. I always thought this and this were the guidelines. Can you point me in the right direction on this? Toddst1 ( talk) 16:35, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi J.delanoy, just wanted your opinion on this because you looked active right now. Am I handling this correctly by removing what I see as spam links from these disambig pages? Will I be subject to 3RR if I continue? Thanks, Darkspots ( talk) 22:49, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
Did you bother reading my rationale on the talk page? How on earth is what I have done - remove a clearly non encyclopedic photo which fails to show one of the most prominent secondary sex caharacteristics of a woman - vandalism? It's having mis-information like this that makes Wikipedia a laughing stock. 86.150.96.24 ( talk) 15:04, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
Dear J.delanoy, after I saw IP 72.14.172.170 vandalizing your talkpage, I reported it to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. After I reported it, I visited its talkpage only to discover that you blocked it for 55 hours! :-) AdjustShift ( talk) 15:15, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
This user 86.150.96.24 ( talk) is "peeved" because I removed his picture. His was replacing one that had been there for months. I think I am correct... but as you know, I have been wrong before. His aggressive attitude is what puts me off I guess. At any rate... if I'm wrong... let me know please.

Ah, I feel more welcome already. It would be nice if instead of simply reverting my work on Child Support you provide an "informative edit summary". Removing external links can be contentious but the section was tagged and their was no discussion on the talk page. I'm sure a compromise can be reached, if you care to discuss this on Talk:Child_support.→( Speak• MorgothX• Havoc) 03:32, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

When browsing Wikipedia without logging in I received this message:
" Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Phineas Flynn has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

I have neither edited Phineas Flynn nor heard of him. I am a registered Wikipedian and do not make anonymous edits. No-one else has access to my PC. If 87.112.21.192 is my IP, then someone, somehow is using my IP anonymously. I know neither where to find my PC's IP nor how someone else could clone it.

Hi Techman!
I just wanted to let you know that I have been watching you, and all of your reversions that I looked seem good, as did your AIV reports. I think you may be a little overzealous with your UAA reports; you may want to read WP:USERNAME for a refresher, and please remember that UAA is only intended for blatant violations.
Basically, just keep up the good work with your reversions and AIV reports, and do take a minute to read the page I linked to!

Hi I have a question. The reason I'm asking you is because, being an administrator, you would know far more than myself or most editors. If you go to the King Kong vs Godzilla page and look under the "Legacy" section, the last paragraph talks about a script for sale (including a website link). Is it OK to leave that in there? It seems to me script solicitation on a Wikipedia page would violate some sort of policy or rule since it seems to be a form of advertising. Is that the case? Giantdevilfish ( talk) 17:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Great. Thanks for the reply. It just seemed wrong to me for someone to use an online encyclopedia to advertise a script, but I just wanted to make sure that was the case which is why I asked. Cheers! Giantdevilfish ( talk) 18:12, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
What's up J. Delanoy I see you've made extensive contributions to the rappers Buckshot bio page and I was wondering if you could and would help me create a decent page for his cousin Stones. I have extensive information on him and was wondering why the wiki site does not feature any article of him considering him and buckshot has appeared in photos, footage, and events with each other not to mention he has co-signs from Brownsville legends such as Smoothe da hustler along with Buck and I think he is also close with St. Laz who's another up and coming Brownsville emcee that's not feautured on this site. I would love to make a page for those two but considering that I am new to this site I don't know how to with out it being deleted from the site within a matter of days. If need be you can check out either one of their myspace pages for some information of your own ,myspace/STONESMUZIK and myspace/STLAZPOTTERSFIELD. I would be very greatful if you were to help me because if you too are a lover of hip hop I know you can tell that Brownsville emcees are some of the most potent from M.O.P. to Heltah Skeltah, AZ and even some of the WU Members.

I noticed that you recently left a warning to 216.56.60.210 regarding vandalism. The same anonymous user, just prior to that, removed all the previous (multiple) warnings from their talk page. I'm unfamiliar with the protocol for this situation, as I do not want to remove your warning in order to restore the previous ones, and I suspect that the nature of your warning will change once that user's talk page has been restored. So, I'm kind of dropping it in your lap, hoping that I will one day be able to better handle similar situations myself. Thanks so much for your help.

I don't mean to butt in here, but whether its a copyrighted script or not, the site still lists it as being solicited for sale. If this script was sold and in production then fine.

When I try to revert "blanked the page", I noticed that you have already reverted it while I was trying to. I do view the recent changes list, but how do you eliminate the edit so fast? Do you use a software program? I wouldn't think it's vandalproof, because that has been disabled. Do you use anything, or do you just manage to click through the links to revert it so fast? -- IRP ☎ 23:41, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi - I wanted to ask you about this article, where an anonymous IP editor is constantly reverting to assert that Kosovo is part of Serbia. Now in my judgment this is a content dispute which is not really vandalism, and I do not wish to partake in a revert war. But I reverted an edit he made which had an edit summary carrying a threat. Question: can his edits, owing to his edit summary/attitude, be construed as vandalism? Did I do properly to revert with Huggle, or should I leave such edits alone?

Hi. I'm a newbie editor with intentions of becoming a functional recent changes patroller. While I was checking out the Recent Changes page, I noticed you revert a lot of vandalism (kudos to you on that mate), but not just that –you are unbelievably fast. I definitely don't think I'm the fastest around here, but I'm definitely not slow either, yet when I get to the page, I always find you've already reverted it! I might not sleep at night if I have to assume this is the result of human training; I mean, can you really be that fast without the aid of something?
So, I read you use Huggle. I'd like to try it out, but a couple of things confuse me. Maybe you could clarify them for me, since you say you can help with the vandalism tools? Pretty please with sugar on top? :)

Hello, J.delanoy. Personally, I don't want to take part in this political lynching. Notice that they have not talked about my edits on articles they just have gotten their feelings hurt by political beliefs. The admin who is leading this charge is a questionable character and I don't want to give credence to his "discussion". -- Tocino 17:19, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

I recieved a message from you explaining that me removing the article on the social pressure of bras was vandalisim.... But I do not understand, is this not a site to edit articles? How am I vandalising anything?
Alot of young women who search these terms (although yes by their own choosing) will/do get confused with seeing these things and it only fuels their own upset about the way they are. The articles shouldn't provoke any kind of upset, confusion or frustration, an encylcopedia is supposed to bring a reader sole knowledge. You have to think about what kind of impact this free for all editing is giving on young women. Nobody can just point out and say, "yes, the average person changes their clothing 3 times a day" or be able to sum up average of this, averages of that... There's alot of that on articles I've read. But yet we're all different. I don't know if anyone else has spoken up on the topic but I urge you to remove that section, seeing I cannot....

Hello,
I am trying to add an article for business entrepreneur Paul Elgin. Why is this page keep being deleted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Htentceo ( talk • contribs) 00:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Ok, thank you for the explaination. So should I omit the areas in which you are referring to?
As for Paul Elgin's contributions, His clothing line Catch 22 Clothing is one of the pioneers in coining the phrase "Stunna Shades" during the Bay Area Hyphy Movement, as Catch 22 was the first company to trademark the phrase and place it on eyewear product nationwide for sale. Catch 22 Clothing has also been showcased in national magazines and on major network television.
Paul Elgin has also done graphic design for well known actresses Zoe Saldana and Jennifer Lora. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.34.111.250 ( talk) 01:15, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I was also unaware of where to read the warning messages! Could you please re-instate my user page and post the deleted version so I can make the necessary edits?

I have perused the wikipedia community looking for the right person to ask my question. You seem like the right chap. You may not have a good answer for me, but i will try anyway. Let me give you a bit of background about myself, so that you can give me a more complete answer, if possible. For starters, I have been noticing how quickly you have been reverting the evil menace known as VANDALISM. Great job. I see your user name all over the place, so I know that you work tirelessly at it. As for me, I have only really been doing this editing thing for about two months now. Like you, I love reverting vandalism and do it every chance I get. Recently, I was granted Rollback rights which has made my mission so much easier. I have noticed that many editors who revert vandalism use either Huggle (which I understand is broken, but everyone still uses it), or Twinkle. I use internet explorer, so I don't think I can use Twinkle. I considered Huggle, but I can't do anything, because the page says its broken. I just want to be able to add a message or a warning to a vandals talk page automatically. I see others doing it, or at least I presume that they are doing it. So far, I have been cutting and pasting, which can be draining at times, and doesn't add all of the information, such as the page vandalized. Is there something easy I can do, or is it hopeless?-- Jojhutton ( talk) 00:09, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Just a heads up, I happened to see this: [6], and you may want to semi-protect your userpage. You must be pretty popular with vandals! Anyway, keep up the vandalism-reversions, Spencer T♦ C 00:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey Quad
I saw you on Huggle yesterday (read: I cursed all the powers of hell as you beat me multiple times...), and you did excellently. Apparently, better than I thought you had from just watching you - based on the
stream of thank you's left on your userpage ;-) If you ever get tired of them vandalizing it, just ask any admin to protect it for you - users are allowed to request protection for any page in their userspace (except their talk page, usually) for any length of time for any reason.
Again, you're already (from what I saw) doing better than 99% of people who start using Huggle; I wanted to let you know that because you are doing a good job, and too often people only get noticed when they do something wrong. Have fun, and leave a little for me to revert sometimes, ok? :P

Hey, how's it going?
I wanted to ask you about something related to Twinkle. You still use it for some stuff, right? (blocking, maybe?) I'd like to configure it to work in a certain way (it's just a minor change) but don't know how, and can't find anything on the manual about it. Maybe you know about this or can at least tell me if it can be done.
My problem is regarding User Contributions pages. Every time I see one, Twinkle automatically adds the tags rollback and vandalism at the end of all (top) edit entries. I find it kind of annoying, since I don't ever click on those tags, they tend to clutter things up even more, and the colors are distracting too. I'd like to look at the Contributions pages as if I didn't have Twinkle, but I don't want to modify my monobook each time I see a Contributions page —or else I'd go nuts! I still use Twinkle on some occasions, so I like to have it on all the time.
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about in case you didn't follow.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance. – QuadrivialMind (talk) 08:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello! I've seen you a lot around Wiki lately. I've been looking for someone to answer a question I've got. I hope you can answer it, or direct me to someone who knows. While going through the RfA's I noticed many people opposed RfAs because they felt that areas like anti-vandalism, new pages, etc. had too many admins. So what I'd like to know is, which areas have a dearth of admins? Because I'd like to concentrate my efforts where they're needed most. Thanks. Anti venin 17:07, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

If you look at the history, you'll note that only one vandal has repeatedly vandalized; 216.211.125.193. There was only one other IP vandal who had 1 edit, and then another helpful IP who reverted vandalism.
So; do you think 2 weeks is really necessary? It was only one guy. And, given that this is a current event, we'll most likely have lots of updates; would you mind if I unprotected? Thanks, Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 00:16, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
It seems that if one is going to extend an olive branch to a Wikipedia vandal, it must first be assumed that said vandal has some common sense. Obviously, our "Simpsons" friend is lacking. :) I am absolutely convinced that he has an open acount at User:Westwind2009. I left a sock notice on the page which went unchallenged (typical Lyle123), but the account remains open and I've reported it twice. Can you do a bruddah a favor and slap a block on that account? Much thanks. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 00:43, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

The user has gotten a whole stack of warnings, perhaps a wikibreak might be in order so they can read over our rules? They have avoided getting blocked by editing a lot, then not at all, then a lot again, but I think they have had enough overall warnings now to warrant some sort of action. -- Terrillja ( talk) 02:18, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Hey thanks for the message. I read the article you provided. As far as the quote goes, I wrote differently than what I meant. I don't do all the contributing just so I can become a
sysop. What I meant was that if being granted these privelages would help me fight vandalism easier. If I am nominated for adminship someday, I would accept and would like the idea of becoming one. Like I said, those privelages I am applying for is not 100% imperative to me. I fight vandalism, patrol new pages, and participate in AFD discussions because I have fun when I do it. Either way, it's not a big deal. Sorry if I sounded that way, though. BTW: What was that Page Protection message you sent me about? I didn't request one.

I noted your efforts to address a situation on Rlevse's talk page. [9] A technique I've found sometimes helps is to break the thread, so to speak, and change venues for the discussion. In this case, perhaps moving the conversation to the user's talk page might be helpful. He's a pretty new user, and probably needs some help understanding how to get things going for a mediation; it might be helpful for someone of your experience to sort of show the way, help him to raise the question on the talk page of the article, and so on. Just a suggestion that you might find useful to de-escalate the situation. Best, Risker ( talk) 03:19, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
1. Have you ever been blocked? Nope
2. Ever had an Editor Review? Nope
3. An RfA? Nope
4. What (if any) horrible skeletons lie in your editing closet? I once had to put myself on wikileave because I just got so frustrated with another user. A newbie tried to report me to admins for deleting his edits (which was agreed by all that it was spam) and I was just so frustrated, feeling like I did all this work to help Wikipedia for nothing. I was back within a week.
5. Got much recent experience at AfD? Recent, no. I have voted in several AfDs before.
6. Are there any major mainspace contribs or other subsantial edits that you are particularly proud of? Yes, I worked very hard on the Rainbow Brite article, and started the Emotionally unstable personality disorder article. I also recently tried to clean up the Abby Sciuto article which was labeled as sounding like a fan site. I occasionally go through the list of articles needing copyedit and clean them up.
7. Is there anyone else who has expressed interest in nomming you for adminship? Yes, User:Shicoco said she would support me.
8. Is there anyone specific you would have particularly liked to nominate you? (If yes, I can ask them if they would like to co-nom.) You and Shicoco would be fine. :) RainbowOfLight Talk 02:57, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi you have written this on my talk "Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. J.delanoygabsadds 15:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)"
But the links, in my humble opinion, are not inappropriate, because the page contains java applications opensource that implements the algorithms descibed in the articles. For these reasons i would insert the links and not for spam.

Well; my Edits were very relevant. However, if you are an Admin, I bow to your decision. Are you an Associate of Akrediki, Googlean etc [the blatant Christian POVs]? Thank you. I see: you are an Admin, I bow to your decision.
I am extremely angry and upset that you have deleted the 'Orsumball' article as 'pure vandalism'. That is completely untrue and is a blatant abuse of your power. With all due respect you do not live in Clayton, Melbourne, Australia so you probably wouldn't have heard of Orsumball. That is why a wikipedia article was created to inform others of this sport.
If there is a particular aspect of the article that should be corrected that is one thing, but to delete articles for no reason other then that you have no knowledge of the content is abhorrent. Unless you recognise and correct your inappropriate actions I will be taking my complaint to a higher authority.
I hope you realise I am deeply and personally offended by your actions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewy 4466 ( talk • contribs) 16:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi,
You just reverted an edit I made on the article on Mercantilism. Before my edit, the opening read "Mercantilism is the idea that a colony should export more goods than it imports and that a colony should sell at higher prices and buy at lower prices". This is inaccurate because this policy was followed by colonial powers and independent states, not by colonies. The role of colonies was to provide the markets with which colonial powers could maintain a trade surplus. Otherwise, it would be the colonies that accumulated gold and silver, going against the perceived interests of the mother country.
I checked and the version of the article that you restored has been in place for a while, but it is wrong. Check, for instance the link below:
http://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/Mercantilism.html
Thanks!

I'm sorry, I'mv new at this, so I'm not putting in a lot of references. I saw that you deleted an addition of the zuguide external link from the Cate Blanchett article. I happenned to see zuguide for Cate Blanchett before you deleted it, it looks like you are not the first, and I really don't understand why. I really like zuguide's Cate Blanchett page, I love movie trailers, and movie stills. On the zuguide help pages, it says the material is licensed. I read through the external links guidelines, it also seems to fit those, since it seems to complement wikipedia, it's a rich media site, is not copyright violation, it's free, and you don't need to register. In other words, I read through all the external link guidelines and it seems to fit.
I actually use external links in wikipedia quite a lot, since unlike google searches they are more reliable. In this case, I think deleting this link (and I presume others to zuguide) is unfortunate. Please let me know what you think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 00:10, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Could you check it out? Respond, and if you think it's right undo your change? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 01:26, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Fair. Let me answer your questions. I did some wikipedia editing about a year ago, but stopped, because the things I added, including just spelling errors were reverted, it was just very frustrating. I had a login, but I can't remember the login or password. I do have over 20 years experience in programming so figuring out a page history and talk page, was pretty simple.
As I wrote earlier, I saw the link to zuguide.com when I looked at the article, tried out the link, liked it, but then it was gone, and this upset me, because this seems to happen all the time in wikipedia. So I decided I should do something about it, or at least learn about it. I read some of the guidelines about Third Party and stuff like that, but the pages said the best thing to do before anything else was to "Talk" to the user who reverted the entry. I figured I could just add it again, but that would just be begging the question, this time, if I'm going to get involved, I want to figure out how it works, so that I don't just add to an entry and find it deleted 10 minutes later.
On your page, it says fairly openly that you an administrator, so I figured you are a good person to ask. Your answer was a bit disappointing, because you said it might be a mistake, but I figured since you willing to admit that possibility you would be a good person to answer my questions.
In any case, can we get back to the question at hand? And let me ask another question, given that you are an admin, can I just undo your undo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 11:55, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, as you just introduced me to the Wikipedia :-) I have to annoy you with a question. I'm not happy with the contributions of 69.117.237.203 as it only consists of inserting links. These links are of no quality as it is a BLOG with embedded videos from kickapps.com/videos (therefore now own or unique content) and additionally every visitor of this site gets to see heaps of ADVERTISING. I do not see any sense in keeping these links. As I'm not 100 % sure if I can just remove all of them myself, or if I have to "ask" someone to do so, or if Wikipedia is happy to see these links as no one else has done anything against these links yet. Thanks in advance and sorry for annoying/stealing your time. Cheers -- Aff123a ( talk) 18:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi Techman!
I just wanted to let you know that I have been watching you, and all of your reversions that I looked seem good, as did your AIV reports. I think you may be a little overzealous with your UAA reports; you may want to read WP:USERNAME for a refresher, and please remember that UAA is only intended for blatant violations.
Basically, just keep up the good work with your reversions and AIV reports, and do take a minute to read the page I linked to!

Hi I have a question. The reason I'm asking you is because, being an administrator, you would know far more than myself or most editors. If you go to the King Kong vs Godzilla page and look under the "Legacy" section, the last paragraph talks about a script for sale (including a website link). Is it OK to leave that in there? It seems to me script solicitation on a Wikipedia page would violate some sort of policy or rule since it seems to be a form of advertising. Is that the case? Giantdevilfish ( talk) 17:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Great. Thanks for the reply. It just seemed wrong to me for someone to use an online encyclopedia to advertise a script, but I just wanted to make sure that was the case which is why I asked. Cheers! Giantdevilfish ( talk) 18:12, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
What's up J. Delanoy I see you've made extensive contributions to the rappers Buckshot bio page and I was wondering if you could and would help me create a decent page for his cousin Stones. I have extensive information on him and was wondering why the wiki site does not feature any article of him considering him and buckshot has appeared in photos, footage, and events with each other not to mention he has co-signs from Brownsville legends such as Smoothe da hustler along with Buck and I think he is also close with St. Laz who's another up and coming Brownsville emcee that's not feautured on this site. I would love to make a page for those two but considering that I am new to this site I don't know how to with out it being deleted from the site within a matter of days. If need be you can check out either one of their myspace pages for some information of your own ,myspace/STONESMUZIK and myspace/STLAZPOTTERSFIELD. I would be very greatful if you were to help me because if you too are a lover of hip hop I know you can tell that Brownsville emcees are some of the most potent from M.O.P. to Heltah Skeltah, AZ and even some of the WU Members.

I noticed that you recently left a warning to 216.56.60.210 regarding vandalism. The same anonymous user, just prior to that, removed all the previous (multiple) warnings from their talk page. I'm unfamiliar with the protocol for this situation, as I do not want to remove your warning in order to restore the previous ones, and I suspect that the nature of your warning will change once that user's talk page has been restored. So, I'm kind of dropping it in your lap, hoping that I will one day be able to better handle similar situations myself. Thanks so much for your help.

I don't mean to butt in here, but whether its a copyrighted script or not, the site still lists it as being solicited for sale. If this script was sold and in production then fine.

Hi - I wanted to ask you about this article, where an anonymous IP editor is constantly reverting to assert that Kosovo is part of Serbia. Now in my judgment this is a content dispute which is not really vandalism, and I do not wish to partake in a revert war. But I reverted an edit he made which had an edit summary carrying a threat. Question: can his edits, owing to his edit summary/attitude, be construed as vandalism? Did I do properly to revert with Huggle, or should I leave such edits alone?

Hi. I'm a newbie editor with intentions of becoming a functional recent changes patroller. While I was checking out the Recent Changes page, I noticed you revert a lot of vandalism (kudos to you on that mate), but not just that –you are unbelievably fast. I definitely don't think I'm the fastest around here, but I'm definitely not slow either, yet when I get to the page, I always find you've already reverted it! I might not sleep at night if I have to assume this is the result of human training; I mean, can you really be that fast without the aid of something?
So, I read you use Huggle. I'd like to try it out, but a couple of things confuse me. Maybe you could clarify them for me, since you say you can help with the vandalism tools? Pretty please with sugar on top? :)

I recieved a message from you explaining that me removing the article on the social pressure of bras was vandalisim.... But I do not understand, is this not a site to edit articles? How am I vandalising anything?
Alot of young women who search these terms (although yes by their own choosing) will/do get confused with seeing these things and it only fuels their own upset about the way they are. The articles shouldn't provoke any kind of upset, confusion or frustration, an encylcopedia is supposed to bring a reader sole knowledge. You have to think about what kind of impact this free for all editing is giving on young women. Nobody can just point out and say, "yes, the average person changes their clothing 3 times a day" or be able to sum up average of this, averages of that... There's alot of that on articles I've read. But yet we're all different. I don't know if anyone else has spoken up on the topic but I urge you to remove that section, seeing I cannot....

I have perused the wikipedia community looking for the right person to ask my question. You seem like the right chap. You may not have a good answer for me, but i will try anyway. Let me give you a bit of background about myself, so that you can give me a more complete answer, if possible. For starters, I have been noticing how quickly you have been reverting the evil menace known as VANDALISM. Great job. I see your user name all over the place, so I know that you work tirelessly at it. As for me, I have only really been doing this editing thing for about two months now. Like you, I love reverting vandalism and do it every chance I get. Recently, I was granted Rollback rights which has made my mission so much easier. I have noticed that many editors who revert vandalism use either Huggle (which I understand is broken, but everyone still uses it), or Twinkle. I use internet explorer, so I don't think I can use Twinkle. I considered Huggle, but I can't do anything, because the page says its broken. I just want to be able to add a message or a warning to a vandals talk page automatically. I see others doing it, or at least I presume that they are doing it. So far, I have been cutting and pasting, which can be draining at times, and doesn't add all of the information, such as the page vandalized. Is there something easy I can do, or is it hopeless?-- Jojhutton ( talk) 00:09, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Just a heads up, I happened to see this: [6], and you may want to semi-protect your userpage. You must be pretty popular with vandals! Anyway, keep up the vandalism-reversions, Spencer T♦ C 00:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey Quad
I saw you on Huggle yesterday (read: I cursed all the powers of hell as you beat me multiple times...), and you did excellently. Apparently, better than I thought you had from just watching you - based on the
stream of thank you's left on your userpage ;-) If you ever get tired of them vandalizing it, just ask any admin to protect it for you - users are allowed to request protection for any page in their userspace (except their talk page, usually) for any length of time for any reason.
Again, you're already (from what I saw) doing better than 99% of people who start using Huggle; I wanted to let you know that because you are doing a good job, and too often people only get noticed when they do something wrong. Have fun, and leave a little for me to revert sometimes, ok? :P

Hey, how's it going?
I wanted to ask you about something related to Twinkle. You still use it for some stuff, right? (blocking, maybe?) I'd like to configure it to work in a certain way (it's just a minor change) but don't know how, and can't find anything on the manual about it. Maybe you know about this or can at least tell me if it can be done.
My problem is regarding User Contributions pages. Every time I see one, Twinkle automatically adds the tags rollback and vandalism at the end of all (top) edit entries. I find it kind of annoying, since I don't ever click on those tags, they tend to clutter things up even more, and the colors are distracting too. I'd like to look at the Contributions pages as if I didn't have Twinkle, but I don't want to modify my monobook each time I see a Contributions page —or else I'd go nuts! I still use Twinkle on some occasions, so I like to have it on all the time.
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about in case you didn't follow.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance. – QuadrivialMind (talk) 08:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
I asked this question on WT:TW a few weeks ago, and Mandarax was kind enough to do this for me.

It seems that if one is going to extend an olive branch to a Wikipedia vandal, it must first be assumed that said vandal has some common sense. Obviously, our "Simpsons" friend is lacking. :) I am absolutely convinced that he has an open acount at User:Westwind2009. I left a sock notice on the page which went unchallenged (typical Lyle123), but the account remains open and I've reported it twice. Can you do a bruddah a favor and slap a block on that account? Much thanks. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 00:43, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Sounds good to me. If it isn't Lyle, please feel free to delete my notices. There were no edits cretited to the account when I tagged it, not even the user page. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 00:51, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

The user has gotten a whole stack of warnings, perhaps a wikibreak might be in order so they can read over our rules? They have avoided getting blocked by editing a lot, then not at all, then a lot again, but I think they have had enough overall warnings now to warrant some sort of action. -- Terrillja ( talk) 02:18, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Hey thanks for the message. I read the article you provided. As far as the quote goes, I wrote differently than what I meant. I don't do all the contributing just so I can become a
sysop. What I meant was that if being granted these privelages would help me fight vandalism easier. If I am nominated for adminship someday, I would accept and would like the idea of becoming one. Like I said, those privelages I am applying for is not 100% imperative to me. I fight vandalism, patrol new pages, and participate in AFD discussions because I have fun when I do it. Either way, it's not a big deal. Sorry if I sounded that way, though. BTW: What was that Page Protection message you sent me about? I didn't request one.

I noted your efforts to address a situation on Rlevse's talk page. [9] A technique I've found sometimes helps is to break the thread, so to speak, and change venues for the discussion. In this case, perhaps moving the conversation to the user's talk page might be helpful. He's a pretty new user, and probably needs some help understanding how to get things going for a mediation; it might be helpful for someone of your experience to sort of show the way, help him to raise the question on the talk page of the article, and so on. Just a suggestion that you might find useful to de-escalate the situation. Best, Risker ( talk) 03:19, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
1. Have you ever been blocked? Nope
2. Ever had an Editor Review? Nope
3. An RfA? Nope
4. What (if any) horrible skeletons lie in your editing closet? I once had to put myself on wikileave because I just got so frustrated with another user. A newbie tried to report me to admins for deleting his edits (which was agreed by all that it was spam) and I was just so frustrated, feeling like I did all this work to help Wikipedia for nothing. I was back within a week.
5. Got much recent experience at AfD? Recent, no. I have voted in several AfDs before.
6. Are there any major mainspace contribs or other subsantial edits that you are particularly proud of? Yes, I worked very hard on the Rainbow Brite article, and started the Emotionally unstable personality disorder article. I also recently tried to clean up the Abby Sciuto article which was labeled as sounding like a fan site. I occasionally go through the list of articles needing copyedit and clean them up.
7. Is there anyone else who has expressed interest in nomming you for adminship? Yes, User:Shicoco said she would support me.
8. Is there anyone specific you would have particularly liked to nominate you? (If yes, I can ask them if they would like to co-nom.) You and Shicoco would be fine. :) RainbowOfLight Talk 02:57, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi you have written this on my talk "Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. J.delanoygabsadds 15:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)"
But the links, in my humble opinion, are not inappropriate, because the page contains java applications opensource that implements the algorithms descibed in the articles. For these reasons i would insert the links and not for spam.

Well; my Edits were very relevant. However, if you are an Admin, I bow to your decision. Are you an Associate of Akrediki, Googlean etc [the blatant Christian POVs]? Thank you. I see: you are an Admin, I bow to your decision.
I am extremely angry and upset that you have deleted the 'Orsumball' article as 'pure vandalism'. That is completely untrue and is a blatant abuse of your power. With all due respect you do not live in Clayton, Melbourne, Australia so you probably wouldn't have heard of Orsumball. That is why a wikipedia article was created to inform others of this sport.
If there is a particular aspect of the article that should be corrected that is one thing, but to delete articles for no reason other then that you have no knowledge of the content is abhorrent. Unless you recognise and correct your inappropriate actions I will be taking my complaint to a higher authority.
I hope you realise I am deeply and personally offended by your actions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewy 4466 ( talk • contribs) 16:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi,
You just reverted an edit I made on the article on Mercantilism. Before my edit, the opening read "Mercantilism is the idea that a colony should export more goods than it imports and that a colony should sell at higher prices and buy at lower prices". This is inaccurate because this policy was followed by colonial powers and independent states, not by colonies. The role of colonies was to provide the markets with which colonial powers could maintain a trade surplus. Otherwise, it would be the colonies that accumulated gold and silver, going against the perceived interests of the mother country.
I checked and the version of the article that you restored has been in place for a while, but it is wrong. Check, for instance the link below:
http://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/Mercantilism.html
Thanks!

I'm sorry, I'mv new at this, so I'm not putting in a lot of references. I saw that you deleted an addition of the zuguide external link from the Cate Blanchett article. I happenned to see zuguide for Cate Blanchett before you deleted it, it looks like you are not the first, and I really don't understand why. I really like zuguide's Cate Blanchett page, I love movie trailers, and movie stills. On the zuguide help pages, it says the material is licensed. I read through the external links guidelines, it also seems to fit those, since it seems to complement wikipedia, it's a rich media site, is not copyright violation, it's free, and you don't need to register. In other words, I read through all the external link guidelines and it seems to fit.
I actually use external links in wikipedia quite a lot, since unlike google searches they are more reliable. In this case, I think deleting this link (and I presume others to zuguide) is unfortunate. Please let me know what you think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 00:10, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Could you check it out? Respond, and if you think it's right undo your change? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 01:26, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Fair. Let me answer your questions. I did some wikipedia editing about a year ago, but stopped, because the things I added, including just spelling errors were reverted, it was just very frustrating. I had a login, but I can't remember the login or password. I do have over 20 years experience in programming so figuring out a page history and talk page, was pretty simple.
As I wrote earlier, I saw the link to zuguide.com when I looked at the article, tried out the link, liked it, but then it was gone, and this upset me, because this seems to happen all the time in wikipedia. So I decided I should do something about it, or at least learn about it. I read some of the guidelines about Third Party and stuff like that, but the pages said the best thing to do before anything else was to "Talk" to the user who reverted the entry. I figured I could just add it again, but that would just be begging the question, this time, if I'm going to get involved, I want to figure out how it works, so that I don't just add to an entry and find it deleted 10 minutes later.
On your page, it says fairly openly that you an administrator, so I figured you are a good person to ask. Your answer was a bit disappointing, because you said it might be a mistake, but I figured since you willing to admit that possibility you would be a good person to answer my questions.
In any case, can we get back to the question at hand? And let me ask another question, given that you are an admin, can I just undo your undo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Movietrailerfan ( talk • contribs) 11:55, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, as you just introduced me to the Wikipedia :-) I have to annoy you with a question. I'm not happy with the contributions of 69.117.237.203 as it only consists of inserting links. These links are of no quality as it is a BLOG with embedded videos from kickapps.com/videos (therefore now own or unique content) and additionally every visitor of this site gets to see heaps of ADVERTISING. I do not see any sense in keeping these links. As I'm not 100 % sure if I can just remove all of them myself, or if I have to "ask" someone to do so, or if Wikipedia is happy to see these links as no one else has done anything against these links yet. Thanks in advance and sorry for annoying/stealing your time. Cheers -- Aff123a ( talk) 18:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

my edits have actually been acurate
You just reverted an edit I made that was both true and notable. I may not know all the ins and outs of Wikipedia, but I do know that you shouldn't have reverted it.
Wow. Now I have to go back and fix it, 'cause you didn't even bother to do that when I explained it. Also, you could have looked at my previous edits and seen that they were correct and concise. Jerk.
Hey, Terrillja, do me a favour: hop on over to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia_Polytechnic_Institute_and_State_University and delete the part of the article that says "history" and then delete the part that says "Massacre". While it was a strange event, it isn't relevant to the article. Dumbass.
