Revision as of 06:36, 26 April 2007

It's clean-up duty, mopping up after the dishonest, incompetent, and fanatical. Can't imagine why you'd have a problem with that.

Some ground rules before you leave a message

  1. I am not an admin. I did not delete your page or article, nor did I block you. I may have, at the very most, suggested or urged deletion of pages or articles but I have no power or ability to do so on my own. I'm just an editor.
  2. This also means, of course, I cannot undelete your page/article, nor unblock you. I can, however, offer you a cookie.
  3. If you are here to make an argument dependent on arcane or convoluted interpretations of Wikipedia guidelines or rules, note that Wikipedia is not game of nomic nor a court of law. Adherence to common sense and rational argument trumps ruleslawyering, as far as I'm concerned. I've been there, done that, got the t-shirt, thankyouverymuch.
  4. There is no Rule 4.
  5. Do not assume I'm stupid, especially when arguing for something obviously untrue. I do not respond well to having my intelligence insulted.
  6. Don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams. Do I look like Montel Williams? Do I? NO? Then don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams.
  7. Especially bogus, hostile, and/or trolling remarks are subject to disemvoweling.
  8. Please post at the bottom of the page and "sign" your posts using the squiggly things (--~~~~).
  9. Please extinguish all cigarettes, as this is a No Smoking page.
Thank you. -- The Management.

Start below and post at the bottom of the page

Susan Montford

I think this article should be deleted: Susan Montford (not notable). It was made by her husband, Don Murphy, who's barely notable himself and keeps editing his own page under various sockpuppets. (The only thing he's notable for is a fight with Quentin Tarantino and he keeps removing that from his entry.) Anyways, I don't have the tenacity to deal with this nutcase... maybe you do?

Produserpagewarning criteria

How do you select user pages? Your notes seem to emphasize that no other edits were made except to the user page. Is that the selection criterion? If so, why didn't it pick up User:Cptn Funk ? Or are there so many, you haven't gotten to that one yet?   ;-)   (Just interested in all the gnomish activities I catch glimpses of)   Shenme 20:49, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks. Sometimes when a see a strange page I just watch it to see what will happen next. Unfortunately, behaviour at WP has become an engrossing fascination for me. Of course that means I notice even tiny patterns, for instance enough to put a message on a user's IP page so that the next time she forgets to login she'll see it. :-P   Shenme 21:02, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stoopid Monkey

I have cautioned Orangemonster2k1 that he may be blocked if he a) persists in making inaccurate 3RR reports, or b) continues to edit war at Stoopid Monkey.

I note, however, that you did come within a couple of hours of violating the 3RR; I'm sure I don't need to remind you that the 3RR is an electric fence and not an entitlement, yadda yadda yadda.

Both of you need to stop edit warring, and both of you need to work on being civil—even though you obviously each find the other infuriating to work with. File an article RfC, or do something to cement the consensus that the material doesn't belong. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 02:57, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The AfD on this isn't relevant; since then it has been successfully argued for, recreated, significance added. It is not a candidate for speedy deletion. If you are determined to see it deleted, open another AfD. The claim that it's speediable because it's an advert, and that it makes no claim to the notability of its subject is simply false, as a glance at the lead shows. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 17:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Look what I found!

Don't you just love the query.php interface, especially when it comes up with stuff like this? And that's only two of the band-related infoboxes. I guess that will keep us busy and our watchlists full for the time being. MER-C 12:19, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Query

Might I ask why you are watching my Drafts/Bi subage on User:Calton/Userfied pages to watch? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 05:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How bizarre. I found my subpage on yours through a Google search, but it has now vanished. Hmm. Sorry about that. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 16:24, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
