3RR

Boothy, just a friendly reminder that you need to be careful about violating WP:3RR. While doing RC patrol, I stumbled upon Fox Chase, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and noticed that you had reverted four times in less than 24 hours. In the future, please don't do this, unless it is a clear-cut case of simple vandalism. Thanks for all your hard work, and happy editing! Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 21:29, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

This would go for all the Philadelphia sections. Please discuss those changes on the talk page and do not violate 3RR. If you continue to do so, I will have no choice but to temporarily block you. Thanks! Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 21:36, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Um no, considering that the move was never discussed in the first place, i see no point in discussing an improper move. So i'll just move it back to where it was in the first place. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 21:40, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Boothy, please don't do that one more time. While I see your side, it really doesn't matter whether the redirect is "right" or "wrong"- WP:3RR clearly states that no revert is allowed after 3 reverts in a 24 hour time period, unless it is simple vandalism or self-reverts. I urge you to stop reverting and leave the editors who are reverting you a note in order to resolve your differences. If you continue to violate 3RR, I will block you. Thanks for your understanding. Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 21:57, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

NO, and you ovibously do not see my side, becaus if you did you you realise that the "enforcment" of this one sided policy is incorrect, but not as if i would expect anything different. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 22:03, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I'm glad to see that you have stopped reverting the pages. One sided policy? Can you clarify that? Why do you feel that WP:3RR is one-sided? Thanks! Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 22:05, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

You are in danger of violating the three revert rule. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from further editing. --Ryan Delaney ^talk 22:24, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Boothy, bud, just make it easy on yourself and leave it for a while. I don't know anything about the subject, but why don't you all start discussing the naming controversy on the relevant talk page, rather than getting into another edit war? The JPS 22:39, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

templates

Hi - I've done a fair amount with templates. What are you trying to do? -- Rick Block (talk) 03:45, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

So, just to make sure I understand, you want the box where the flag and seal are to have only the seal (as in the current invocation), only the flag, both, or none - all depending on the presence of the "flag" and "seal" parameters? -- Rick Block (talk) 04:07, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

I'll think about it. Do you know user:Rorro? S/he seems to be the creator of Template:If defined call1. Seems like you might need a variant. I haven't figured out exactly how Template:If defined call1 works yet. I'll think about and let you know if I figure out an answer. -- Rick Block (talk) 04:17, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

• Per WP:AUM, please don't do this. Radiant_>|< 15:09, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • per the unhelpful department, that was not helpful, if you read it says if you can help please contact. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 20:50, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

re:my RFA

I was wondering what was keeping you, I assumed you'd vote oppose as soon as my RFA was posted up, anyway, I just wanted to leave you a note to remind you to update your votecount when you vote. Jtkiefer ^{T | @ | C} ----- 07:06, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Trenton

Do you understand what ambiguity is? Having an article called "Trenton Rail Station" is a perfect example. Trenton is a disambiguation page because there are many places called Trenton. --SPUI (talk) 07:29, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

It's hella better than what you keep moving it to. --SPUI (talk) 07:46, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

I guess that works, though that station wasn't always the main one in Trenton. That could be disambigged though. --SPUI (talk) 07:48, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Until around 1865, the Northeast Corridor between Trenton and Monmouth Junction was not built - instead the main line went along the Delaware and Raritan Canal. [1] shows the old station. There was also the Reading station at the end of the branch from West Trenton at Five Points, shown on [2] - that existed until that branch was abandoned. --SPUI (talk) 07:59, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Rfa Voting

I know you have a tendency to oppose everyone, and I respect your right to vote the way you want. But, a lot of people are opposing Celestianpower's nomination. You could go with the flow and oppose, or you could make a statement and support her. Acetic Acid 08:13, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Scratch that. May I ask what your voting policy is? I see you support some people, while opposing others. Acetic Acid 08:16, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for responding. Those sound reasonable. I wish others knew you weren't acting in bad faith. Acetic Acid 08:47, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm... all right. Seems like a fair argument. I'm not sure if "Jimmy" is starting a cult, but whatever. By the way, it was hilarious that he clicked the gay porno link while at a conference. XD Good night Jason. Acetic Acid 08:57, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

I thought he said someone else sent him an e-mail. They were monitoring your behavior or something. Then, he came across it by accident. Acetic Acid 09:01, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Philly WikiProject

I can help when I have time. --Luciuskwok 09:41, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Also, let me know if there are any articles about the western suburbs or the northwest part of Philadelphia that need work. --Luciuskwok 12:16, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Removed inappropriate link, blocked for 17 seconds

I removed a highly inappropriate link from your toolbox page and blocked you for 17 seconds as punishment.  :-) Please don't do that again. I got a complaint and I'm at a Major International Corporation today getting donations for us to buy more servers, and they let me do email from here. And I got a complaint about your page. And I clicked on the link. And it was Not Work Safe. So, please, that's not the sort of thing we ought to be doing here.--Jimbo Wales 19:39, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

I further strongly recommend that you do not place any offensive links on that page or I will remove them again. And I also recommend that you discuss this with me like a mature adult rather than insulting me, and that if you don't, you may be cordially invited to permanently leave the project, ok? We are trying to do something useful here; this is not your playground.--Jimbo Wales 15:05, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Rl

I understand that you usually oppose RFA's, but I was wondering if you could perhaps take another look at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Rl. RI is basically identifying policy flaws in VFD, and others are opposing him for doing so!! He doesn't seem afraid not to follow the crowd. What you might find ammusing is that he had a 100% support vote (12!) until Spalsh opposed [3], then everyone followed suit!! In this case, then, your support vote would be making the point your opposing normally does. I think that makes sense... The JPS 21:02, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Thank you. :) The JPS 21:37, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Whatever you feel comfortable with. No hard feelings if you do. The JPS 21:47, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
