Size of Contributions

Hello Dlohcierekim, quick question. How do you check the contributions of a user based on size? Example 30,000 bytes versus 1000 edits. It has been driving me nuts where to find the tool. Appreciate your help. Shoessss |  Chat  15:21, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

My reply. Dlohcierekim 15:39, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks - I was looking for quick and easy way. But I guess it is like a lot of things in life, just have to roll-up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. Your comments do make me rethink my deletion of my trophy wall with Articles I created section. But hey, I’ll save that for when and if I ever get involved at the administration level. And thanks again. Shoessss |  Chat  15:42, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 15:55, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for stealing your comments!

I went ahead and used your RfA pointers to guide Shapiros10, because I saw you weren't online, and I didn't want to see a good faith editor snowed under (and feel humiliated) before you had a chance to use them. Regards, EJF (talk) 16:12, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Ckatz's RfA

I just wanted to say "thanks" for the support at my recent RfA. It is always somewhat unnerving to put yourself up for review in front of your peers... Thanks again, and please let me know if I can help out at any time. Cheers! --Ckatz^chat_spy 04:32, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Editor Review

Yeah, I have been reverting vandalism lately, so its lost. On my userpage, I have a list of created ones, but my best contributions are probably to Boston Celtics, (so close to FA) Rickey Henderson, (so close to GA) House of Hohenstaufen, Earl Johnson (baseball). I also helped get Heuschrecke 10 to GA. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 20:47, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. I will take your suggestions into mind! And, that AIV report was a mistake (whoops!). Sorry. But about delaying the RFA. I already did delay it, and I'm not sure delaying it again is a good idea. It's about 10 days away from April. I will of course delay it, if you really think I should, (but I will have to notify the co-noms again) which would bring up again Majorly's point. What do you think? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 21:31, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

RE:Eunice

Hello! Nice save on the Eunice (genus)! It looked like it could be notable, but the page seemed to be db-nonsense and the author's name seemed a bit vandalish (Robyn123456789). I should probably take more time in the newpage patrolling. Anyway, here's a barnstar for saving the article!--Sallicio^{$\color {Red}\oplus$} 05:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

My bad. It is the kid's user page. Sorry about that. On the other hand, I'm pretty certain that the report I made earlier may very well be the return of the Cartoon Network Vandal. I've seen this guy's modus operandi enough times to know. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 01:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

re: Weber

Haha! Yeah, Weber. I stopped trying to make sense of it some time ago, and I recommend the same to you. There have been threads at ANI, BN (1, 2), WT:RFA, and two RfCs (1,2), all without result. Some say he's entitled to his opinion, others say it's harmless, still others think it's disruptive. In my own opinion, it's plain point voting, because he does it instead of starting a centralised debate. What I personally think is a bit disruptive about it, or at least carries some danger, is that I've actually seen others oppose "per Kmweber". Dorftrottel (criticise) 09:14, March 5, 2008

abbie gale's deletion

hi Dlohcierekim, Abbie Gale are a band with two albums. their latest single called "Lovesong" -a duet with the singer of Raining Pleasure, the most succeessfull English singing band in Greece, with two albums being certified gold- has received a nationwide airplay.

They play live concerts all over Greece and are one of the 5-6 most critically acclaimed bands here and wide known as well.

I am not that patient and don't have too much time to write a fully detailed article. I suggest we keep the article i wrote and then someone else that build on it.

Anyway, as a more experienced user, you must know better... :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by Potis1980 (talk • contribs) 14:00, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

My request for bureaucratship

Dear Mike, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :)
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 04:36, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

You accept this also?! Just here to say "CHEERS" for your support at my recent RfB which passed successfully with (133/4/3). Awesome. I'm thrilled! Cheers again. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

problem with repeating references

Dear Dlohcierekim

thanks for your offer of help, I have one problem, not urgent

I am reasonably happy with "testicular immunology", its all been written by me so far. I would welcome any suggestions on how to improve it.

The only major problem I have is that some references which are repeated at different places during the article, have been repeated in the reference list, instead of gaining letters in front to link the one reference to different parts of the text. Currently ref 20 is repeated as 23; 44 as 46, 60, 87; and 36 as 84, 89, 90, 91. This has happened despite using the same word as the title of the citation in text.

Any suggestions?

thanks

Gloria M. Sabater Elementary School

I noticed you deleted my page for being obviously untrue. Just so you know, that was the idea. I'm trying to conduct a lesson for elementary school students about how not everything they see on the Internet is necessarily true, and I created that page to show a "real" web page that contains information that is, to them, obviously wrong. It had to be obvious because of the young age of my students, and I would ask that you please return the page to the way it was. After the lesson is over, I had planned on inserting real information and showing the students again, but I can't do that if the page is deleted. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by T3ach3r (talk • contribs) 13:10, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Note from editor whose "article got deleted

please stop deleting my articles who do you think you are the lord emperor wiki lol just being silly not really mad at you just disappointed that the administrators of wikipedia are such pompus nerds. I mean come on you think really only famous people can have an article. Well now that I understand I'm sorry I disturbed the status quo please don't think I'm a vandal I really like wikipedia and value it's information deeply I thought I was improving it by added an article about myself I AM TRULY DEEPLY SORRY please don't delete my user account. I guess sometime I should read your policies about writing articles so they don't all get deleted. But I'm no expert on anything so maybe I should not write any articles. I guess I should leave that to the university students and professors they actually know something. T.T.F.N.

I read the article writing policy and I now understand that my articles where completely inappropriate and I feel like absolute idiot. I think that maybe people should be required to read the policy before they write or edit an article to keep them from doing totally stupid things like myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by No.where.man.1000 (talk • contribs) 19:29, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Repeating References pt2

Hi Dlohcierekim

ref 1 in testicular immunology is repeated 6 times, and letters "a" to "f" came up automatically just before the citation in the reference list. This oen worked well but the others, eg 36 which is repeated at 84, 89, 90, 91 didn't. Its happened with references starting with a name used for numerous references, (O'Bryan and Pollanen). If we can't sort it out, its no big deal.

Speedying hoaxes

According to the G3 criteria, blatant hoaxes are considered in the same vein as vandalism, and can be speedied as such. I don't know when this change was made, but I am glad that it was. I've found more than my fair share of hoax articles that could've been G3'd instead of AfD'd. it's just going to take time to get word out to everyone that we don't have to give these articles any more days of life that they don't deserve.

Deleted articles?

I'm asking for advice in a possibly controversial situation here. At WR, a user blocked for sockpuppetry is asking for copies of deleted articles, and I'm unsure if I should provide them. He seems to have legitimate reasons for wanting them, and I think it's not breaking any policy nor guideline, but MyWikiBiz is practically an expletive at Wikipedia, so I'm ambivalent. If a user asks for deleted copies of and article, should he get them? I think the fact that he's blocked should be irrelevant here, since sockpuppetry isn't really related to this.
