Dear Sir, you are cordially invited to join a discussion on this matter at WikiProject British Royalty. Yours in anticipation, D B D 16:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
I just re(-re-re)-deleted User_talk:Smbarnzy and was wondering - why do you choose to have it deleted rather than kept as a redirect? Just curious. — Random832 20:27, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
Are you alive? John Reaves 09:39, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
less than a minute is kind of revealing. are you a robot?
Yer the best. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.177.11.5 ( talk) 01:03, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
im very curious, how you could come to the conclusion that me adding that Jesse Helms was a symbol of Bigotry was vandalism. He was a major symbol of Bigotry in the 1950's and 1960's and worked extremely hard against basic Civil rights of African- Americans during this time... read wikipedia article and it already states this... It is very important that people know the truth not half-truths.
This is an exerpt of Jesse Helms wiki page. "Soon after the Senate vote on the Confederate flag insignia, Sen. Jesse Helms (R.-N.C.) ran into Mosely-Braun in a Capitol elevator. Helms turned to his friend, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R.-Utah), and said, "Watch me make her cry. I'm going to make her cry. I'm going to sing 'Dixie' until she cries." He then proceeded to sing the song about the good life during slavery to Mosely-Braun (Gannett News Service, 9/2/93; Time, 8/16/93).[5] "
That my friend... are the words and actions of a Bigot... If you are in support of actions and statements such as these...then you too are a Bigot! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.232.153.118 ( talk) 19:59, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Majorly. Did you check this IPs other edits before you posted this warning? From what I can discern what you reverted was an accidental typo when he was adding information to the article, but I may be mistaken because I'm not familiar with the cartoon. It might be a good idea for you to use the {{ uw-vandalism1}} template first before accusing people of vandalism. Remember, never attribute to malice would could be explained by incompetence! Cheers! — Elipongo ( Talk contribs) 22:40, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
Thank you so much for fixing the vandalism to my user page by 99.245.163.168 - you are very fast! - Ahunt ( talk) 22:43, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
Why is it that wikipedia sets up no ability to discuss articles? Talk function is limited and not set up for most pages. Ahunt has no real authority on the subject but, as usual, wiki says editors can distort or delete facts at will. The credibility of wiki has suffered because of this. —Preceding

STOP YOUR VANDALISM OF REFERENCED MATERIAL ON OTHER PEOPLE'S PAGES OR YOU WILL BE BLOCKED. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.241.46.108 ( talk) 19:43, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
When a faceless majority decides truth, the whole concept becomes relative. Whats wild is I can go through your site and alter names and statistics and its rarely found, unless I do something crazy like the vanilla incident. All you can do is block my IP, thats not tough to change...

That will not work. The arbcom case could last for weeks, if the mfd is left open people will still keep !voting and the drama will increase. Please close it - you can start a new one after the arbitration if you like.-- Docg 00:05, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey Majorly, have you decided to stop contributing at the Simple English Wikipedia? If you have, please be aware that your account is still a sysop. Are you planning on coming back and editing it anytime soon? Razorflame ( talk) 21:14, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
Would you consider undoing this? I would appreciate it since it seems a bit (unusually) immature of you and definitely unhelpful, as opposed to your oppose rationale. I dorftrottel I talk I 02:57, December 30, 2007
Hi,
Regarding your recent edit, my reply in the summary is --
"You may think not, but you are incorrect -- Ref 2 implies Ref. 1. I have discussed this with b'cat WJBscribe."
When you requested a reconfirmation RfA, that stipulated your willingness to accept its judgment. When a b'crat allowed the RfA forward, that implied that contoversial circumstances existed. When it was closed as failing, that absolutely stipulated controversial circumstances. B'crat WJBscribe concurred in this reasoning when I added the tag to you. Best wishes, Xoloz ( talk) 15:22, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
I see my name has been mentioned so I'll add a brief note here. I did agree with Xoloz that ref 2 implies ref 1 - that doesn't meant they will always occur. Personally I think Raul654 is correct that is a special case where the RfA should be considered a nulity rather than a withdrawn attempt. I've added my take on the situation to WP:BN but I am I think too involved (and bound by the answer to Majorly's question on my RfB) not to take bureaucrat action on the issue. WjB scribe 16:22, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Majorly, edit warring at the same time you are requesting to be promoted to admin can't possibly help your case [1]. Personally, I feel you have never completely explained how you managed to share an IP with Matthew. You are, of course, free not to do so. — Carl ( CBM · talk) 16:43, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
You reverted the changes I made to the article http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Go_Through_This under the anonymous account ( http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Go_Through_This&diff=180337999&oldid=180337937 ). The article contained factual errors, I simply corrected it, please revert my changes back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vluchits ( talk • contribs) 23:53, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
221.114.141.220 was proposing User:Evil Records for deletion because the userpage plainly is spam — it's not at all what a userpage is supposed to be. Would you mind if I delete it, as it should be? I'm not going to without your permission, since you removed the speedy tag. If not, it's going to XFD. Nyttend ( talk) 02:45, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
