User talk revert

Thanks! How'd you see that he vandalised it? Scarian^{Call me Pat!} 23:34, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

No problem, I must have seen their first edit, when the -50,000 kB or so came across the Recent Changes list, by the time I looked at their contribs, they had made the second edit. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 23:38, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the revert on my user page. Cheers --Patrick (talk) 17:56, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 17:57, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

"Mel Gibson"

Hey there.

I notice that you removed the vandalism that I missed somehow. Thanks for that.
...but what exactly happened there? ~ Troy (talk) 19:53, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

I had noticed a long string of unexplained edits, without many reversions, which is usually a bad sign. I checked the diff between Insanity Incarnate's version and what had been the current version, and there had been a number of vandal edits that had been missed, in other words, the reverts weren't going back far enough, so I just reverted back to a version before all the disruption started. I've put in a request at WP:RFPP, hopefully that should take care of it for awhile. I'm not sure why it was all happening today, he must be in the news or linked on the mainpage or something. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 19:59, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Looks like the article has been semi-protected for a couple weeks. By the way, thanks for the rvv on my userpage the other day. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 20:03, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the revert on my userpage! --  Darth Mike  _{(Talk • Contribs)} 10:19, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

No problem. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 10:21, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

It appears you get this a lot, but I really appreciate the help reverting the vandalism on my Talk page. CIGraphix (talk) 13:30, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

No problem, happy to help. AlexiusHoratius (talk) 17:53, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Micheal Phelps is not as good as Ian Thorpe

Sure Micheal Phelps is winning all those gold medals and is so called the best Olympian ever. But who said being an olympian is all about winning, to be the perfect Olympian you have to have physical strength but also a kind respective attitude but does Micheal Phelps have that. No, no he doesnt which makes him half a perfect olympian so who is the perfect olympian who has those too put together. Hardly anyone but no there is two Stephanie rice and Ian Thorpe. Sure Stehphanie is still ypung but at least she has a good attitude. What about Ian Thorpe his retired but was never a show- off or a boaster like Micheal Phelps. So what do i say. Viva Ian Thorpe, Viva Stephanie Rice, Viva Grant Hackett, Viva Eadmon Sullivan, Viva Australia. But long Micheal Phelps your going down. Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie Oi oi oi!

Flamingo

The article states "In Ancient Rome, flamingo tongues were considered a delicacy". Do you understand what does this mean? Why only tongue, not other body parts? Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 09:47, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

I did a bit of research on it, and I found a reference that covers the passage in the article. I'm not really sure why they liked it more - but then again I stopped trying to understand Roman cuisine after reading how garum was made. AlexiusHoratius 10:01, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

How do you feel about mops?

Hey there Alexius, I saw that you were asked about adminship back in May by User:Qaddosh. You mentioned that you wanted to wait a few months then; I was curious, when were you thinking about trying for RfA? I've been looking into your contribs a bit, and I think you do fine work here. We could certainly use your help! Looking forward to your response. :) GlassCobra 17:32, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I think I would be open to running this time, if you wanted to nominate me. If you do, I'm pretty open in the next few weeks. Feel free to ask me about my edit history or anything, and if you do want to nominate me, go ahead and let me know how best to go about doing this (although I've been watching RfA's for most of the year, I've never actually gone through with one myself, so I don't know much about the pre-transclution side of it).

Hi. Please assist in reverting this user's edits, because this user keeps on removing metric units, if they haven't been reverted already. Thanks. ~AH1^(TCU) 22:15, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Nevermind, I have finished reverting the unwanted edits, but some of the other edits are OK but some I'm not sure about such as making links less specific such as "CSI Miami" to "CSI" and "character actor" to "actor". Thanks. ~AH1^(TCU) 22:23, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Yep, looks like the metric ones have been taken care of. (Sorry, I was out for a bit.) The removals seem to have stopped for now, if they start up again I suppose we can discuss what to do about it at that point. AlexiusHoratius 23:11, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi

I think you are absolutely gorgeous!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nissanaltima (talk • contribs) 07:32, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Well thank you very much. AlexiusHoratius 07:52, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Reverts

Thanks for the reverts on my userpage. --Patrick (talk) 21:59, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

No problem. AlexiusHoratius 23:18, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing vandalism

Thanks for reverting stuff at my user page and helping to block the vandal. CRETOG8(t/c) 06:09, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. AlexiusHoratius 06:16, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank in WP:N?

Thank you for pointing out in the crown. Thanks it again. --Bart0278 (talk) 10:58, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

No problem, (they looked the same to me at first as well). I think it had something to do with the coronation of Elizabeth II, the change in flags and the coronation were both in 1953, but I'm not completely sure if this was the reason. If you want more information about it, the Humanities Reference desk would be the place to ask it. AlexiusHoratius 11:04, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Holler House

I have just created Holler House and see you are interested in Milwaukee topics wonder if you may be able to find/upload any free images of Holler House. Any article improvement would be appreciated too. — Rlevse • Talk • 00:58, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I read the article, and it actually sounds like a pretty cool place, but I don't think I could be of much help as far as pictures go (I don't live in Milwaukee, I just watch the article). AlexiusHoratius 06:12, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Changed my Latvian goat edit in a matter of seconds. before my friend even had a chance to see =/

66.235.40.209 (talk) 01:10, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Don't like to brag, but maybe you're right, maybe I should get paid for this... AlexiusHoratius 01:15, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Heh

Sorry 'bout that.[1] You beat me on the rollback, which I had in another tab while I warning the IP. :) EVula // talk // ☯ // 00:19, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Not a problem, I'm sure I've done the same thing a few times as well. AlexiusHoratius 00:31, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

My user page

Thanks for reverting vandalism on my user page!! ^LeaveSleaves _talk 20:39, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No problem, and good work with all the rvv's lately, seems like almost every other revert today has gone back to a version by you. AlexiusHoratius 20:48, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Vermont

Thanks for taking care of the vandalism on the Vermont page. Please include the "next" step of warning the vandals. (I did already this time) I have noticed few repeats among warned vandals. The ones that do repeat - we have a history when they do it on different articles. Thanks again for your effort. Student7 (talk) 12:10, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

I generally do warn them, but that guy hadn't edited in the half hour between his edit and my revert; I sort of figured that he had had his bit of fun and moved on. (For the registered accounts, repeat offending IPs, and the really nasty stuff, I always give out warnings, but for the first time testers, or for first time IP vandals whose edits are a bit old, as were the ones on Vermont, I will often just let that slide.) Some time ago, I looked at some of my really old user talk warnings, and found that quite a few of those pages consisted of my one vandalism1 template and nothing for the three or four months since, so I guess I lightened up a bit on warning the people making test edits or the vandals who looked like they were probably one-time offenders. AlexiusHoratius 14:09, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

I apologize. I should have known that there was a good reason! 12:13, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

No need for an apology. I don't even know if my reason is a good reason, it's just that on the one hand, we have some burned out anti-vandal admins who don't warn anyone, and on the other there are cases I've seen where eager-beaver hugglers will be warning people for absolutely every edit, even ones to the sandbox or poorly worded talk page messages. I think my way is a bit of a happy medium, a bit more nuanced. The vandals who really need it still get warned, and the person who made a smiley-faced test hours ago gets off the hook. Although I should point out that sometimes I'm not entirely consistent, when I probably should be. If I'm in a hurry and just clearing out my watchlist I might just rollback all the vandalism and not worry about the warnings, sometimes if I'm in full-on RC patrol mode I'll warn people much more often.

Panama and Panama real estate

The update that I made to the Panama real estate section was both accurate and timely. The information it currently contains is neither. By changing that update, you did the people reading that page a disservice.
