So I should wait until completed and use preview verses publish?

I'm not trying to be a smart well ya know. I'm Just a little unfamiliar with how the editing works here. It took me quite a bit to figure out how to message you back. Your input would be greatly appreciated. I am an avid user of the wiki and I dont want to put junk out there so I'm sorry if it seemed that way

Whats wrong with it?

How

Why did you delete my gobbledigook page? How did you delete it and how did you know it existed? I created it as a test 2 seconds before you deleted it.

Thanks

Please help me

Chairboy this is Penetrating Fluid, I saw your comment on my discussion page. I feel very strongly that I am being injustly censored soley because one administrator didn't know what penetrating fluid is and imagined it to be some kind of offensive term. Please read the discussion here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Samsara#User:Penetrating_Fluid and if you feel I am wrong then I shall desist from further action.

Deleting Fixya's image

Hello Chairboy,

You've deleted my posting of Fixya's logo. I've received an email from the site's owner granting me the right to post it in Wikipedia for use in Wiki's articles.

Can I reload it?

You have not answered my question. If I don't get a reply by tomorrow I'll reload the picture. As i mentioned I have full permission from the site's owner.

Image of Christopher Meloni

Hi. I noticed that you deleted an image of the above at 18:30 on April 11. I was wondering if you could give me a detailed why and wherefore to the decision as I was using it to show new users what images of actors they could upload and it now turns out that I was showing them incorrectly. Also, would there be a way to find out who initially uploaded it. (Quentin X 17:42, 20 April 2007 (UTC))

Howdy! I deleted the image because it was licensed under a Creative Commons license that specifies "for non-commercial use only" or "no derivative works", and there wasn't any fair-use assertion anywhere. This falls into the WP:CSD Images, subsection 3, which asserts how this situation is untenable and that these images are to be speedily deleted. Best regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 18:35, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

"Image:Ceca on Pink1.jpg"

For the life of me I can't figure out why you suddenly deleted this image without even looking at the accompanying discussion on its discussion page, the result of which was to keep the image. That discussion is now gone and I don't know if it's recoverable. The person who deleted the image the last time also did so completely blindly, saying that it's an orphan which was complete nonsense since turbofolk article always linked to it.

Ace High

Learn to comment on an article's talk page. It benefits other authors interested in the topic. It's obvious you have an interest in seeing the Ace High article violate Wiki standards. Just cite the sections correctly or stop reverting and forcing a bogus issue on Wikipedia.--Scribner 05:42, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Bonyan

Does Bonyan qualify for deletion? It appears to be a very small seminar company. The only references I find on google give an address and phone number. thanks for your attention. Lsi john 14:04, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up, I've deleted the article. In the future, you can add speedy delete tags to articles like this to get even quicker response from an admin. Best regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 14:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome and I'm much obliged in return.

Other than the obvious speed, is there any significant difference between speedy delete, and the slower delete process where requests for comment and opinion are solicited?

Does one or the other have a heavier weight if someone tries to re-write or re-add an article?

Thanks. -Peace in God. Lsi john 15:12, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Removing copyvio tag

Hi Chairboy, regarding this, I wonder if you might take another look? I didn't provide a link in any of the templates because I couldn't get it to work, it just stayed as "unquestionably a copyvio of {{{URL}}}". The uploader has provided the URL from which the image was taken and there is no assertion of ownership or permission. The link is still on the image page and was directly underneath the template, so I didn't feel it necessary to spend time playing about trying to get the template to work. Could you go back and see what I mean? --YFB ¿ 14:39, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see it now. Thanks! I've deleted the image. The format for the template is, if I recall correctly, subst:db-copyvio|http://www.somesite.com/picture.jpg . That way, it passes the URL as a variable to db-copyvio. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 14:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I've replied at my talk page. --YFB ¿ 14:56, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

deletion of Lebanese_Hezbollah_recruts_being_sworn_in.jpg

Why did you delete Image:Lebanese_Hezbollah_recruts_being_sworn_in.jpg? It complies fully with WP:COPYRIGHT#Fair_use_materials_and_special_requirements by form and content, a detailed rationale was given. --tickle me 15:14, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

It was deleted because the image had a clearly invalid fair use tag; or it was an image that failed some part of the fair use criteria and the uploader had been given 48 hours' notification (for images uploaded after 13 July 2006) or seven days' notification (for images uploaded before that date). (CSD I7). - CHAIRBOY (☎) 15:18, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I answered on my talk. --tickle me 15:47, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

WP policy and templates

Ben, thanks for your comment; let me clarify where I'm at a little:

First, the burden of understanding what a warning template says falls on you.

That is well and good, but for any policy that is enforcable against users, there must be a way that a reasonable user of ordinary intelligence can discover what the rules are. The problem here wasn't that I didn't understand what the specific template said, it was that I was mislead by WP's written policy and previous replies by admins in blocking requests as to what the purpose of using the WP:WARN templates is.

Now, you must surely see that there's only two ways that a user can discover that: if it's written somewhere in WP policy, or if they get it wrong ("wrong" being defined by common practise) and an admin tells them. What you wrote on my talk page is all perfectly reasonable. But it isn't in any written canonical WP policy document that I'm aware of. That left only one way I could find that out: to get it wrong and be told. If one of the admins at ANI had responded the way you responded on my talk page, that would have been fair and reasonable. But as you can see at ANI, they didn't; they formed a lynch mob. That's why I "dug my heels in and fought harder" - because the admins there were being totally unreasonable. At no point did any of them grasp that they were trying to hang me from an understanding of WP policy which is not only not embodied in any written policy, but in fact cuts against the very strong insinuations of several written policies, not the least of which being WP:WARN itself.Simon Dodd 15:09, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

CSD G6 deletion of Image:Cadet2.jpg

Chairboy, I came across File:Cadet2.jpg (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) when I followed a link to it from a derivative work. Why was the image deleted? --Iamunknown 04:16, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

It was deleted under WP:CSD Images, article 1. It was a redundant copy of Image:Cadet.JPG. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 04:23, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. --Iamunknown 04:25, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

WikiGnosis block

"I'm very confused about how things work on Wikipedia. It appears that it's okay to call other people names that are in no way "nice", but if someone mentions that this sort of behavior could be considered (I won't say the word, but it starts with the letter "L" and it rhymes with "Bible"), that is an "indef blockable" offense? Are you taking sides in the matter, and challenging only the after-the-fact "legal threats"? Or, have you been equal in counseling restraint among those who use inflammatory labels to malign other users?"

I for one don't agree that this constitutes a legal threat. Even policy discourages defamatory remarks. That isn't thereby threatening to file a lawsuit. -- Ben ^TALK/_HIST 02:59, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I seriously do not see how this is a legal threat. I will unblock unless you have further objections, which will be discussed. —²¹⁰physicq (c) 03:21, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Review his other edits, there's repeated vague legal threats, this alone might not be enough, but it's the camel that breaks the straw's back. I don't think unblocking the user without them discussing and agreeing to abide by WP:NLT is appropriate. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 04:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

"The words "stalker", "terrorist", and "criminal" have been used above to describe Daniel Brandt. If these are true statements, why haven't law enforcement authorities been notified to prosecute Brandt on charges? If it's because these statements are untrue, then that's libel, folks. You're not doing Wikipedia any favors by libeling someone, or conversely, you're not doing the world any favors by typing on Wikipedia while you should be contacting the FBI. Make up your minds." (diff)

That also is not a legal threat. It's a true statement of the law (as far as I understand the law), and incidentally of Wikipedia's policies (e.g. WP:BLP), and might possibly suggest that Brandt could sue, but it says nothing about the writer's own intentions; it never suggests "I'll sue!"

Chairboy, if I offered links to pirated "warez" or other blatant copyvios, and you advised me that these were violations of copyright law (and thus of Wikipedia policy), could I have you blocked for making a legal threat? -- Ben ^TALK/_HIST 04:25, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

WP:NLT#Legal complaints: A polite, coherent complaint in cases of copyright infringement or attacks is not a "legal threat".

Apply this to the above texts by WikiGnosis.

-- Ben ^TALK/_HIST 07:21, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

3O: Based only on the text in this thread, I see no legal threats. As far as I know, a person can't sue for libel on someone else's behalf. There may be a straw that breaks a camel's back, but it should be a real straw and this doesn't appear to be one. This seems to me to be a description of facts, as seen by the editor. I don't even see an implied threat here. Lsi john 13:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I am afraid I don't see a threat of any sort, pointing out that something may be illegal is not a legal threat in itself, though it is muddy ground. ^High_InBC^{(Need help? Ask me)} 13:53, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

(Copied back from User talk:Ben#WikiGnosis:)

Howdy! While I respect your opinion, I must disagree. The user has repeatedly made legal threats against users. The cutesy way he/she is doing it doesn't excuse the fact. Also, the user just accused the admin who reviewed and denied the unblock request of disrupting wikipedia to make a point in this edit. As I mentioned in the AN/I thread, this user does not appear to be operating in good faith. Review the content of his/her edits, both for the circumspect legal threats and the content, and I'm certain it'll become immediately clear. You and I have agreed in the past about some admins being block-happy, specifically over at WP:RFCN, but I don't believe this is one of those situations. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 14:56, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

The problem is, Chairboy, I haven't seen any legal threats in what he wrote. If I've missed some, please direct me to them. The two passages already quoted here and here don't contain legal threats. WP:NLT#Legal complaints explicitly says "A polite, coherent complaint [...] is not a 'legal threat'". I think policy has been misapplied here. -- Ben ^TALK/_HIST 15:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Also see this. When counseled on it, the user quickly asserted that it was not meant as a legal threat, then a couple weeks later leaves the cutesy "starts with L, rhymes with bible" message on Durova's page. Legal threats don't need to be explicit, and I said that I'm more than happy to unblock the user once they assert a clear understanding of how unacceptable legal threats are. The user has chosen a different path in the meantime. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 15:59, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

"This" was one of the two passages already discussed. It neither makes nor implies any legal threat. -- Ben ^TALK/_HIST 16:28, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

• I really don't see any of the satemes you quote above or on WP:AN/I as a legal threat. To be clear saying "That is lible" or "In posting information X, you are libeling person Y" is not a legal threat unless there is also a statement of some sort "And I will sue you over it" or "and I will urge Y to sue". While I am ready to unblock myself, i would prefer to have you do so, adn i don't want to do so withotu discussing it with you first. As I said on ANI, ther might be grounds for a block for disruptive editing, but not for leagal threats, at elast not based on the quotes and diffs i have seen. Please unblock User:WikiGnosis. DES ^(talk) 16:16, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • User has been unblocked already, and this is the third message you've posted since I said was going to unblock it, I've even left a message on your user talk. (taps microphone) Is this thing on? - CHAIRBOY (☎) 16:17, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Thank you. I just saw your msk on my talk, and no I did not see your previous msg saying that you would unblock. Possibly ther was a race condition, and the msg p[osted after I acessed the page, and before I clicked "save", or possibly i just read poorly. My apologies. I was not in any case goign to unblock without waiting for your response. Thanks for unblocking. DES ^(talk) 16:20, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Thanks, ihave now read both your msgs on my talk page. The matter is over as far as i am concerned. I apologize for not corretly seeing your statement of intent to unblock before posting -- when I checked the block log (after poting my first msg on this topic to ANI I think) it didn't yet show your unblock. Let's just vcall this a case of msgs that crossed in the e-mail, ok? DES ^(talk) 16:24, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: WikiGnosis

Chairboy, I saw that Checkuser result also, and indef blocked WikiGnosis as a result. --Akhilleus (talk) 16:34, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the update on my talk page, Chairboy. I'm not familiar with MyWikiBiz's editing patterns, so I cannot make a judgement on the case, but I'm willing to let those (you, Akhilleus, Durova and others) who are familiar make the judgement calls.

Irpen

Please don't treat Irpen like that.[1] He's a very committed Wikipedian, whatever disagreements you may have with him, and he took the trouble to write fully and explanatorily to you. You're an admin, you're held to a higher standard than grinning and waving like an idiot in response. If you weren't just doing that — if there was some deep dimension to your post that made it meaningful and valuable — then he didn't get it, and I don't get it. Perhaps in that case you could interpret and explain. I hope you speak to users in order to communicate with them, not in order to amuse yourself and your friends at their expense. Bishonen | talk 00:55, 1 May 2007 (UTC).

Treat him like what? He made weird vague statements about me controlling things from behind a curtain or something like the Wizard of Oz. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 01:54, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Correction

I made no statement about you doing anything with respect to this particular accident. In my ANI entry I stated some obvious facts:

1. "Cool-off blocks" never ever helped but only made things worse (show me an example to the contrary)
2. Undiscussed (and in the open!) controversial blocks of established editors always made matters worse (show me an example to the contrary.) And I do not mean blocks of established editor who after a drink or two decide to log in to WP and go kick some butts. I mean those obviously controversial blocks only.
3. Such blocks in the past started or exacerbated the standing of several admins to their eventual desysopping (I am sure citing examples would be excessive and let's spare their feelings by not naming them. They might be reading this page)
4. Admins who eagerly blocked have never been seen reformed to my knowledge (show me an example to the contrary.)

In response you posted a strange entry at my talk accusing me of being generally admin-hungry, in that eating (or at least biting) admins is all I do. Further you vaguely accused me in having no interest towards "investing the effort." I did not get that part at all, especially when said by someone who hasn't made a single substantive article edit in last month (56 mainspace edits in the month of April, none of which significant. I did not look further back, could be if I looked for two months I would have found an FA or a GA plus a DYK entry and destubbing of the underedited article. In that case, I would happily retract and top it off with a great article writer barnstar.)

I posted a detailed and good-faithed response where I elaborated in a greater detail. Then you posted this (possibly) offensive, purposefully ungrammatical and somewhat contrary to the original book statement (about Oz and a bucket) which does not make sense no matter how one looks at it.

Your invoking the WoO implies that I accused you in being behind the scenes in orchestrating this incident (I never said it was you in this case). However, it was the witch, not the Wizard, who was killed by the bucket of water which I (or you?) supposedly "has" (hard to understand exactly who you refer to in your edit summary.) So, it just didn't make sense to me.

Neither I could make anything out of your deliberately ungrammatical summary. If you were mocking my imperfect English, do it as you please. (Btw, English is my third language by the order of fluency. Not very impressive, I admit. Perhaps, you know more foreign languages and know some of them better than I know English. Good for you.)

If that was not mocking my English either, the only other way I could imagine is that it was your attempting to assume blackface dialect, which is itself very offensive in a public forum, especially when said to a person that you don't know.

If that was neither of those but something else all along, I would have no clue but I did not know what to do with what seemed nonsense to me (offensive or not, I was not sure).

Bishonen, who watchlists my talk, spotted the entry and took an effort to reprimand you because whatever it was that you were saying it was nonsencial at best, intended as an offense (likely) or harassment at worst. I thank her for that, but such matters are not worth her valuable time. I have a very thick skin and I've seen much worse than your acid-tongued remarks.

Happy edits whether you plan to make some in the mainspace or not. --Irpen 21:07, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

P.S. After posting I realized that you might have taken the "yes, you understood me correctly" remark in my original post exclusively on your own account in relation to this incident similarly to the past incident where your involvement was so, uhm, shall I say "undoubtful". I did not mean to imply your direct involvement in the last incident and I am sorry about the ambiguity. I meant that the incident at hand was obviously originated in the same forum, that's all. Since then, there was another demonstration to which you probably have no relation either. --Irpen 21:11, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry about that

Sorry, when I saw the page it had just been created, I didn't realize I was recreating the page with the speedy deletion tag. It appeared I would be adding the tag to the page not recreating it. Once again I am sorry. Xtreme racer 03:27, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't understand...

You deleted my page "Casual Science" before I was even finished. You flagged it as CSD, which states "Note that some Wikipedians create articles in multiple saves, so try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its initial creation."

Your reason was that it lacked notability. My unfinished page was mine, the website it represents is mine, and the website exists. You made reference to Articles: Section 7, which makes no sense. My site deals only with science and art, as mentioned, and just because you have never heard of it doesn't mean it's not important.

I don't see what the problem is. JimCS 04:18, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Howdy, and welcome to Wikipedia! I provided a link in the delete reason that explained things, but no worries. Please visit WP:WEB to see the criteria needed for a website to remain on Wikipedia. Your article was deleted to Articles, subsection 7 of WP:CSD which includes websites that do not meet the listed criteria. Regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 04:20, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick, but seemingly automated, response. I understand what you claim that I violated, I just don't understand why. Given the fact that I was not finished typing it, I still feel there is no justification for its deletion. If I write it all out before saving, may I resubmit?JimCS 04:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm not automated. I don't eat old peoples medicine for food, I'm not even hunting Sarah Connor. If you can make your article meet WP:WEB, then sure, go ahead and repost it. It would be useful to see some sort of acknowledgment that you've read WP:WEB and understand it. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 04:40, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Slave hack

Hello,

Recently I noticed that an article Slave hack was deleted because there were no third party sources.

I've recently, however, found this: [2] from PC gamers UK. Do you have any suggestions? Would that be good enough to satisfy notability? Perhaps something to start a deletion review? Please respond on my talk page. Aquatics ^{Guard Alert} 03:05, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Sounds reasonable, worth a shot! - CHAIRBOY (☎) 03:23, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Knock it off yourself, you don't know what your talking about. (AldeBaer/Kncyu38)

I don't think you know the whole story between me and AldeBaer/Kncyu. (he changed his name recently) It is long and it involves hateful e-mails from him to me, and his new found support of prejudiced propaganda on the Manfred Von Richtofen page to furhter his feud with me. I don't know why you would take his side, or why he would reach out to your if he did? I at least say my responses, which at this late point are heated, openly. I also provide sound logic. I do not do all of the subterfuge and feuding that he does. II have asked him to drop this so many times. I would not even be writing about this if he did not start pasting old random discussions and warnings on my talk page obsessively, and maliciously reverting the MvR page to include "propaganda" (Hebrew Impact on Western Civilization, vii) while I was gone, I was assuming he would be stopped by someone else, or grow up and give it up. He even said he didn't care about the article at all earlier, it is just his feud with me. whatever. Wiki is really not a respectable source for anything anyway. In part due to characters like AldeBaer//Kncyu and his incredibly limited number of supporters. 71.192.101.77JohnHistory

BTW, having read your offensive message on my board, if you haven't already seen me show how he is a jerk on the discussion page at Manfred Von Richtofen (and archived) and all my exhaustively detailed points along with others ( i bought the sources)  then you haven't been paying any attention to this "debate" at all.  I have tried to be civil, and I still am keeping a lid on it.  However, he doesn't engage in logical debate, he attacks me and trys to get me blocked, and reverts to propaganda just to be uncivil himself.   I could care less about all this "blocked" whatever mumbo jumbo, all of your weird phrases about socks. etc.  I am a purist here.  I just want some basic integrity for the articles I see.  You guys can run around like chickens with your heads cut off all day for all I care.  It is really pathetic.  Why are you here if not to work on the articles?  Why support prejudiced propaganda and destroy Jimbo guidelines as Kncyu38 (now Alebaer has done?  can you answer that for me please?  JohnHistory 18:48, 3 May 2007 (UTC)Johnhistory

Hi, in the Kichak article the sanskrit spells <Kachik> instead of <Keechak>. I could not figure out how to transliterate into sanskrit. Would you please change it? I dropped a note to User:Dangerous-Boy but later realized that he's on a wikibreak. Thanks. - TwoOars ^{(T | C)} 19:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

If I edit any page, some one may indefintely block me as the User:Dangerous-Boy was blocked. I am afraid to edit wikipedia. Please request some other editor. Thanks for your message. --Bhadani (talk) 19:32, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I am sorry about all that. Thanks anyway :), I'll ask someone else. - TwoOars ^{(T | C)} 19:49, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

It is fine - by the time you are able to search some one, most of them may have been indefinitely blocked. Please do not ask any one to touch any thing on wikiepedia related to India and Hinduism as their contents are owned and maintained by a select group of editors. Regards. --Bhadani (talk) 19:54, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

If you have a concern about folks with ownership issues, bring it to WP:AN/I if talking to them doesn't help. If you think there's a massive administrator conspiracy, WP:AN/I or WP:RFC should hear about it. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 20:05, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I thank you for your suggestions and am obliged to you. However, by taking such foolish steps, I do not want to be blocked. It is a matter of faith in the system of wikipedia and wikipedians. Regards. --Bhadani (talk) 02:29, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Slave Hack Deletion Review

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Slave hack. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Aquatics ^{Guard Alert} 16:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks & Request

Thanks for userfying Slave hack to my user page, it's appreciated. Aquatics ^{Guard Alert} 23:58, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm also wondering if it'd be possible to get another deleted page userfied over to me for an overhaul? It was called RPG World Online back when it existed. If you could, that'd be great. Aquatics ^{Guard Alert} 00:27, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Sure, no prob. It's at User:Aquatics/RPG World Online. Remember, if it's reposted in anything like its current form, it will be deleted on sight. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 00:41, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I am aware. Definite overhaul needed. Thanks for your help! Aquatics ^{Guard Alert} 00:50, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

wp:rs

I've added a suggestion via wp:brd - to WP:RS discussion. I don't know if you think its relevant/necessary or not, but I'm interested in your input. Thanks. Lsi john 04:00, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Re: MotherLoad

Thanks for the contact; I have chosen to withdraw the DRV in light of pending consensus that the article was not notable and was a valid A7 deletion. I suppose I misremembered the article, or at least its own assertion of notability, and I haven't found anything too promising through Google. Cheers, Dar-Ape 13:49, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

No problem. If you think it can be made into a good article (that meets notability requirements) and would like a copy of what was deleted restored to your userspace to use as a base to fix up (preceeding a move back to article space), let me know. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 14:40, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Re:

Sorry about my laziness. I will try to avoid that in the future. Aquarius &#149; talk 17:50, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I didn't mean to do it again. It's a bad habit that I will fix from now on. Aquarius &#149; talk 17:54, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Markku from Finland deleted

It's a shame you deleted Markku from Finland. Hosting his own Tv-show on Finland's third largest broadcaster means he is a notable figure. The article was speedily deleted before I even had any chance to add more international sources. I can undestand if people are not interested in Finnish humour, but that doesn't mean it isn't a notable phenomenon. Wstryder 05:45, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Jeremybub

Thanks, just reading his edits, he's made a lot of good edits, but a lot of recent edits seem to be vandal/attacks, I'm wondering was his account compromised in some way. Wildthing61476 20:19, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Tres possible, but in the absence of evidence to that effect, I believe an indef block is appropriate. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 20:20, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

No problem, thanks for the help! Wildthing61476 20:25, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you suggested that this user's unpleasant behaviour should be addressed rather than the username - would you care to comment at [3]? Zaian 20:46, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Re: Salad days

Hi Chairboy, I'm defending Salad Days because my experience with him has been quite positive. I've helped him on the WP:DEAD project, which he ran and where he did a lot of good work for the project. The edits you highlighted do show that he has a tendency to make a point, but he's hardly a complete disruption to the project. But I won't argue about this matter any further, as others seem to think otherwise. Cheers, Jayden54 09:55, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
