== request about the page football records in spain : Someone needs to stop this circus ! == |
|||
Hello .. |
|||
may you please take a look at football records in spain ,this page is containing various different records in Spanish football, the user : 49.244.108.56 keeps removing some of them because he believes they are not needed and if you took a look at what he adds or removes you can see he is doing that biasing since he is working hard to remove Barca records allowing only real records !! the 3 records i added are well referenced from the related club website and even classified clearly under national records even not just a club records !! so anything clearer than that even ?? how should someone opinion or even bunch of people opinion about it make a difference in that ?? its a clear case...the related club classified it as record , so if someone likes it or not it shouldn't stop being a record . |
|||
and since its referenced I can't see any reason to remove it . |
|||
the website : http://www.fcbarcelona.com/club/the-honours/detail/card/fc-barcelona-team-records |
|||
what is really weird...there is some records similar to those added ( like i added ) but he added them related to Real Madrid so obviously he doesn't have a clear measure in that.\ |
|||
I tried sending other for help also but i found no response so far, I just think the whole thing is turning into a circus as that :) and for the protection of integrity of wikipedia someone should act in someway !! making it clear (neither way i dont care ) just don't leave it for somenoe to decide oh i hate this club so i dont want his records and im making my hard to remove them and bringing everyother possible records for the club i like ??! take a look at it please because this IP : 49.244.108.56 has long history of doing that ! |
|||
he is the same range of ip from 49.244.125.32 also he is the same as 49.244.161.201 and by the way it's all belongs to a user has been blocked before but i dont know why they unblocked him again ! it's just as a circus as that |

thank you |

i swear to god i meant to put it in the summary, but my dog had to go out, so i got up, i let her out, and then i saved and forgot... I'LL EXPLAIN HERE THOUGH!!! well, i have sent several letters to nintendo (e-mail) and they are all including starfox 2 questions... every time i get a reply it goes something like:
we have no plans to release a new f-zero, game & watch (gallery), or kid icarus game in the near future.
THEY ALWAYS DODGE MY QUESTIONS ABOUT STARFOX 2. plus, after hearing from that guy (or girl, whatever) on the talk page, i was so shook up i went to some forums and they were all suggesting such things like that of the game being released.
compromise: ive sent a letter to nintendo (this time SPECIFICALLY about starfox 2 and only that game), if they reply back saying maybe (or better), it goes back up, but until then, we leave it w/o a rumor. deal? Hollywoodd 08:27, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I am sorry, but that is not good enough. Statements need to have reliable sources; message board posts are not reliable sources (anybody could write them), nor are e-mails (it's very easy to fake e-mails, so they cannot be considered reliable). If there are rumors, you need to substantiate them using reliable sources. - furrykef (Talk at me) 08:52, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

hey! how come you removed "knuckio" from the somari page? it's related to sonic bros! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Angus Nitro (talk • contribs) 03:23, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Because the page isn't about Sonic Bros., it's about Somari. It's basically another ROM hack with a graphics change; anybody could make that. Somari is special because it's a very advanced ROM hack that just happens to replace Sonic with Mario. If we listed every ROM hack where Mario was replaced with a Sonic character or vice versa, the article would probably get really long. - furrykef (Talk at me) 04:15, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Merge proposal
Please see WT:Only_make_links_that_are_relevant_to_the_context#Break 1 for the current discussion. I'm letting everyone know who has a comment on the relevant talk pages. Obviously, we're not going to push anything through without a full discussion of every issue, including whether to merge at all. My sense is that there's wide agreement on all the big points, but the devil is in the details. - Dan Dank55 (send/receive) 19:54, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Can you upload your "Helium article read with helium.ogg" on Commons ?
I am considerably enlarging the :fr:Hélium article from a translation from Transclusion error: {{En}} is only for use in File namespace. Use {{lang-en}} or {{in lang|en}} instead.. I stumble on the fact that apparently the file "Helium article read with helium.ogg" has stayed on en:wp. Could you upload it to Commons, so that everybody can use it ?
Thanks in advance Trassiorf (talk) 05:22, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- It was just that I thougt to see on the History page that it was you who put it on the page. I'll try to see where I can find this file. Sorry for the disturbance, and thanks all the same. Trassiorf (talk) 21:28, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

A thanks for starting the Wikibook on Guitar
Hello Furrykef
Just thought I'd introduce myself and say "thank you" for starting the Guitar wikibook. I'm editing and proof reading the Guitar wikibook. Basically trying to reach consensus about replacing certain ascii tab exercises with images. I've added two new pages: Scale Manual and Technical exercises. I'm providing the scales and technical exercises in tab; so as not to exclude those guitarists who do not read music. I've added beginners exercises to the jazz page and started the pages on flamenco and classical guitar.
I'm happy to get any advice on the work I've done and hope you will find a moment to check my work.
Thanks --Sluffs (talk) 13:18, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback, but I'm afraid I'm not really interested in the guitar wikibook anymore. I haven't even looked at it in a couple of years, and it wouldn't surprise me if much of what I've written has been rewritten by now. I'm sure you can find somebody else who might be interested, though. - furrykef (Talk at me) 13:24, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Rarity of Earthbound a non sequitur?
First of all, a Legacy section deals with the continuing impact and appeal of the subject matter. I can see no other place to put the present demand for the game. It shouldn't go in the introductory paragraph or Reception, as Reception deals mostly with initial sales and media attention. If you know where it should go, at least move the information instead of being a deletionist. Deletionists like to target IP editors, especially, and do minimal effort to gain respect and credit. 74.194.224.252 (talk) 19:41, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
- I've put it on the Talk page. There's a reason that I'm a deletionist, though: I have minimal time, and if I expended a lot of effort trying to find the proper place for stuff, well, it would take time away from other things, both on and off Wikipedia. - furrykef (Talk at me) 22:23, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello
I am an editor here on wikipedia. There is this other editor cosmic latte who has been vandalising the Michael jackson Page with the last 24 hours he has made over 50 edits to major parts of the article without even discussing with other editors who have been warning him. he has in the passed been guilty of vandalism. Please speak with him. I also believe that he uses other names such as TimothyHorrigan and Rodhullandemu. please speak with this individual he has put block on his vandalism so you cant undo what he has done. This is making wikipedia look really bad as Michael Jackson is one of the most searched article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Knighttrain (talk • contribs) 22:35, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
Revision to Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri articles
I noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.
I intend to revise those articles following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles.
Thank you.

Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life the Universe and Everything (42)
I just looked at Pages that link to "Phrases from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and, excluding User and Talk pages, there are about 90 of them. If you want to change the section title (which I agree is currently ungrammatical) then the burden falls on you to plough through 90 or so links and change those that need changing. (Not all of them will need changing as some of them will point to other sections.)
I am in the process of replacing such section links with redirects. However, this is a big job, even for just Hitchhiker's, and it is going to take a while. At its conclusion, changing section titles will be much simpler.
Finally, looking at some of these links, the favoured version of the phrase appears to have two commas, as in "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything". This is also grammatical, the second comma being optional.
If you wish to respond, please do so here. HairyWombat 19:57, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
- I have to say I don't really appreciate my reasonable edit being called "vandalism", which is what you used as the edit summary when you reverted it. Never call something "vandalism" unless the intent was to destroy rather than to improve. I also disagree that "the burden falls on me" update the links; neither does it fall on you or anybody in particular. Wikipedia is a community project. I am updating at least some of the links anyway, but not because I think I'm personally obligated to.
- I think the one-comma version is preferable in this case because that's how the title of the book Life, the Universe and Everything is generally written. British English also tends not to use the Oxford comma, and as HHGttG is very British, it seems appropriate to apply British style. - furrykef (Talk at me) 06:16, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- I have updated all the links I could find. It really was not a big deal. - furrykef (Talk at me) 06:44, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
If you visit the link I gave above (this one), you will find another 50 or 60. (If breaking that many links is not vandalism then I would like to see what is.) You seem keen to take on this task, so I will leave it in your capable hands. Best of luck. Bye, HairyWombat 16:20, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- That was the link I used to fix the links. Did you actually look to see if any were still broken? Can you show me one that is? I don't think there are even 50 or 60 links total that link to the section in question. And to answer the question "if breaking that many links is not vandalism then I would like to see what is", the answer is malice. Vandalism implies malicious intent. If there is no malicious intent, it is not vandalism. From Wikipedia:Vandalism: "Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism." By calling it vandalism, you are saying I acted in bad faith. I'm sure you can understand why I don't appreciate that.
- Also, I fail to see why you found it preferable to retain a grammatically incorrect section heading instead of just fixing it. Fixing all the links took maybe ten minutes of effort, and that was just me acting alone. If it were really necessary, I could have found somebody and said, "Hey, Bob, let's go through these links and I'll get A-M and you get N-Z." You could also have posted somewhere asking for help even if you didn't want to fix any of the links yourself. Why settle for a grammatically incorrect section heading when there are ways of dealing with it? - furrykef (Talk at me) 18:23, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

MSU Interview
Dear Furrykef,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
- Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
- Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
- All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
- All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
- The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 19:24, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
- I don't think I'm a good candidate 'cause I'm not all that much of an administrator around here. I'm more of an ordinary user who just happens to have admin powers he rarely uses. Thanks, though. - furrykef (Talk at me) 23:42, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Continued removal of the content without consensus to do so is disruptive editing at best, and you should know better than that. I shouldn't have to remind you that if you make a bold edit and it's reverted, you should discuss it on the article's talk page, as per WP:BRD. While it's being discussed, the [[WP>:STATUSQUO|staus quo]], which is the content remaining in the article, prevails. Please don't edit war over this. --AussieLegend (talk) 16:13, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
