User 75.183.170.77's edits

Hi! Please keep an eye on this user's edits (especially on the China article). I've seen it's contributions to articles such as China and Republic of China; his/her edits are incoherent, grammatically incorrect, and sometimes insulting. I noticed that he/she even deleted all the messages on his/her own talk page; shouldn't he/she be "warned" already for this kind of behavior? I hope you look out for his/her edits on the China article, in case if the user keeps reverting again. I think there should be a semi-protection coming soon. Thanks!--Balthazarduju 05:12, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome. I was unsure what to do with regards to user 203.171.95.131's edits, I'll keep in mind your advice in the future. NossB 11:50, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello Nat.tang

I figured I'd ask on your talk page rather than publicly to try to disrupt as little as possible. If you look at the additional comment put by Fourdee into the incident where I reported Phral, you will see that this dispute contains a lot of user denigration, which in and of itself is harmful and disruptive for WP, not to mention very hard to ignore for those being denigrated (I do my best). At this point, it's rather clear that the opposing editors consider they have "consensus" even if several editors in the last few days have pointed out many flaws in their reasoning, so I'm basically sure they will decline mediation, which would be the obvious way to resolve the matter. That being said, can you suggest other avenues to help in this situation and to keep the disruption of WP to a strict minimum? Any and all suggestions are appreciated.--Ramdrake 13:51, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

RfC?

I'm not sure what that would really accomplish. I don't think his case is really severe enough that people will comment in an RfC - and even then, I doubt anything enforceable will come out of it. But if somebody else wants to file it, I'll comment. I haven't contacted anybody about it yet. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 14:56, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:UofT Heraldic Arms.gif

Hi there. I've tagged Image:UofT Heraldic Arms.gif as lacking a source - there is a discussion at Talk:University of Toronto#Heraldic Arms about the image, and knowing where it came from would be helpful. Please note also that policy requires a source for the image: unsourced images may be deleted. Thank you. — mholland (talk) 21:05, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Templates

Aren't there automated bots that deal with that? Perspicacite 08:13, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

They run once or twice a day (to the best of my knowledge) and they're pretty slow nat^tang 08:14, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks I was unaware of the format issue as I copied the base template from another page. UkraineToday 00:33, 26 August 2007 (UTC) Thanks again I was in teh process of cleaning up my data and when I went to save ity I discovered you had also done some house keeping for me. Thanks again. PS I think there is a difference between supporting the Eu and being pro-EU. The main reason is that I feel there needs to be a counter balance to teh common misuse of the words pro-West which is generally meant to hide pro-USA under the umbrella of being pro-West. I strongly detest the use of the stereotype pro-west and stating pro-EU helps to strengthen this without having to say opposed to the USA... Which I am not I am just more pro-EU and less USA...
