Gandhi

So, will you support me in this issue? Beam 15:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, how about a "Beam is right. Wikipedia policy dictates Mahatma Gandhi be the title." in the talk page for the article. lol Beam 21:28, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But I'm pretty sure they do in this case...sigh. I'll have to look into RfC or w/e you suggested and try my luck with it. Beam 22:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redaction

I disagree with the redaction of your own comment. I find it to be an insightful and good comment, telling the people to wake up. MessedRocker (talk) 02:57, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem

These things happen. But this is why edit summaries are good...if you hadn't used one, I would be wondering if it had been an effort to save my from myself or deescalate drama or something of that sort. Guettarda (talk) 03:24, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Burma

Okay, I have created Wikipedia:Requests_for_mediation/Burma. I have added you along with added 18 other users (including myself) to the list of involved parties. The ones I have listed are ones who have commented recently, or who commented on the Mediation Cabal case (except if they solely made a neutral comment). If you disagree with me listing you there, remove yourself from it if you wish. If you feel someone else should be involved, add/ask them. I hope those I have added are alright though. I also hope this step is what finally ends this dispute! Deamon138 (talk) 00:31, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. To tell the truth, I nearly included the user impersonating you with the accents, but I soon realized! Deamon138 (talk) 00:45, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay no worries. Maybe it could be changed to just "Agree" with the rest of the comment moved to the talk page. I'm sure the others I have listed there will look at it and take it into consideration when they decide to agree or disagree. Does that sound fair? Deamon138 (talk) 01:00, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've moved it to the talk page, but added (note) to it, with a link to said talk page. I hope that's alright. I'm going to ask the Chair or someone if that is okay by the rules, however I agree with you that the rules are too strict when they ban comments there Deamon138 (talk) 01:17, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I'm glad you're okay with my alterations, and I've asked User:WJBscribe (the chair of the committee) if if it's fine by the rules too. Hopefully it will be! Oh and if I haven't said so before, thanks for agreeing to go for mediation! Deamon138 (talk) 19:26, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An Arbitration case in which you commented has been opened, and is located here. Please add any evidence you may wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Geogre-William M. Connolley/Evidence. Please submit your evidence within one week, if possible. You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Geogre-William M. Connolley/Workshop.

On behalf of the Arbitration Committee, Daniel (talk) 02:10, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since you're on now...

...can I bug you with a request?

I recently had to get my talk page semi-protected, and the protection expired a little while ago. Can you protect User talk:J.delanoy so that [move=sysop] Thanks. J.delanoygabsadds 02:10, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! In case you hadn't figured it out, the real reason I asked you to protect my talk page was to get you off Huggle so I could get all the reverts :P J.delanoygabsadds 02:18, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Another plot foiled. Curses! J.delanoygabsadds 02:32, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Burma Mediation

Why did you disagree to it? Beam 14:30, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So, what do you see happening regarding that disagreement over the naming? Beam 14:53, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I felt that it was important to mention that since you and C Warden support the current location, you may consider the issue settled satisfactorily settled and that no further action is required. Other users honestly disagree, since the "status quo" decision of the MEDCAB was essentially no decision at all when there is no status quo for the article. I would like to see a definitive end to this discussion, scuttling the mediation only defers the problem to a later date when the current decision is so weakly worded. SDY (talk) 03:06, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ape!


Thanks for the tribe from the Solomon Islands! :) While I'm here, and just out of curiosity, did you remember this discussion. :D Acalamari 02:00, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and a day late I know, but happy first edit day! :) You've now been here for two years. :) Acalamari 02:12, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry about it. :D You're very welcome for the congratulations, and the ape. :) Best wishes. Acalamari 03:04, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal to amend WP:UE

WP:HAU, Status, and you!

As you may know, the StatusBot responsible for maintaining the status of the Highly Active Users was taken offline. We now have a replacement in the Qui status system. This semi-automatic system will allow you to easily update your status page found at Special:Mypage/Status which the HAU page code is now designed to read from. If you are already using Qui (or a compatible system) - great! - no action is needed (other than remembering to update your status as necessary). If not, consider installing Qui. You can also manually update this status by changing the page text to online, offline, or busy. While it is not mandatory, the nature of HAU is that people are often seeking a quick answer from someone who is online and keeping our statuses up-to-date will assist with this. Note if you were previously using your /Status page as something other than a one-word status indicator, your HAU entry may have been set to "status=n" to correct display issues. Please clear this parameter if you change things to be "HAU compatible". Further questions can be raised at WT:HAU. This message was delivered by xenobot 23:05, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Someone wants help

I gave an IP a warning over suspicious editing patterns, but it appears that he wants to do something. It looks as though you're trustworthy and you're capable with dealing with the matter. Can you please help me out on the IP's talk page? Many thanks, ~ Troy (talk) 01:55, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Sedsa1 vandalised my user page here after he was warned several times. I think it's time to stop him/her. ~ Troy (talk) 02:20, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. It was taken care of. Nice job watching out for those vandals by the way. ~ Troy (talk) 02:23, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine with me. It can't hurt to have a snack on the job—especially when other folks are helping out ;). I still have one question that really itches me—what should we do about Henry Pollack?? ~ Troy (talk) 02:32, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, sure. ~ Troy (talk) 03:27, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Insanity (radio)

hi you deleted the above named article, I notice they are currently reinstating it. What is the appropriate response to this; in observing that notability has yet to be established? Semitransgenic (talk) 15:06, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User Page Protection

Hey Husond!

Sorry about missing out on helping you guys stop that IP who vandalized my user page in retaliation of yesterday's mishap. You all seemed to have it under control, so I guess it's still a win-win situation (for now).

I'm still worried about users like that who use their rights to edit on Wikipedia to get back at other users (User:Bobo192's user page was sort of a victim yesterday, being someone who's heavy on counter-vandalism). As a result, if a similar IP, which must have been released & renewed again, got back at me or any of the other guys for thrawting those obvious attempts, how should I get the pages to be protected? Am I supposed to take a different approach from requesting protection for normal articles?

...either way, I hope that this doesn't happen again to users like Bobo192. Thanks for your hard and persistent work attitudes, ~ Troy (talk) 23:25, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, just checking. I was just a little worried, because as I recently reverted more and more obvious vandalism (not "content-disputes", which are different) some of the perpetrators got a little ticked off with me similarly as the others.
One last thing. Satchdudely's account {Satchdudly (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)} appears to be used solely for vandalism. Could you check it out and may be confirm the issue? Thanks again, :-) ~ Troy (talk) 23:49, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Look at contribs. I think I found that out some time ago. The contributions are often as important—may be even more important—than the user page itself. Also, on non existent user pages, you can go to the toolbox and see that the "User contributions" are actually existing themselves (ie: IPs don't usually have a user page, but their links usually point to Special:Contributions/IP address). Like article histories, specific contributions are not erased. Apparently, you can't erase stuff on Wikipedia—only add stuff (like replacing the page with other content).
Specifically for this instance, you want Special:Contributions/Satchdudley. ~ Troy (talk) 00:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Whoops... my bad. I incorrectly added an "e" right after "...dud...". It should work now. ~ Troy (talk) 00:06, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever you say. Just make sure to watch that page—I can't trust that user after what I've seen. Regards, ~ Troy (talk) 00:15, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gaston d'Orleans

It appears that 81.159.252.120 believes his edits[1] to Gaston d'Orleans should not be changed, regardless of the historical inaccuracies he adds to the article. Would you care to take a look at this situation. Thanks. Kansas Bear (talk) 02:40, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Husond, I've completed a rewrite of the New Jersey School Report Card article, and was wondering if you could go take a look and see if you feel it's still in need of deletion. It turns out it was a pretty revolutionary program and the first school report card in the nation to make the information available to all taxpayers. Once I started figuring out the right search terms, there were plenty of reliable sources to make an article out of. So, take a look, see if you feel the nom's still justified, and let me know. No worries if you're still opposed, but if you are and there's a particular thing holding you back, speak up about what it is and I may be able to fix. Thanks! Vickser (talk) 06:17, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Piscine sanctions

Afternoon. I was dismayed to read your comments on my honesty and integrity in Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Article Rescue Squadron (3 nomination). Your nomination might charitably be taken to mean that some editors abuse the ARS rescue template, but the note that ARS members by definition "clearly have an inclusionist agenda," makes it unambiguous that you think we would subvert the basis of this encyclopedia for the sake of retaining more articles. I joined ARS after rescuing two articles on my own. My use of its resources has been sporadic, but to my recall I have never used them to canvass, be canvassed or keep articles from being deleted in any other way than improving them during AfD.

I do not know how ARS affects AfD, nor whether and how thoroughly you should substantiate your claims of canvassing, but those things are not the issue here. Here's what is the issue: may hit you with a fish? --Kizor 11:26, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
