Thomas Cunningham
In the mean time, it is an attack article. You may recreate the article when you have written a good one. WAvegetarian (talk) (email) (contribs) 22:20, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Removal of deletion notices from articles you have created is considered vandalism and can get you blocked. If you have a good version ready to go before it is deleted, then, and only then, may you remove the tag and the original text replacing it with the good article. --WAvegetarian (talk) (email) (contribs) 22:24, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, and I never deleted any tag on that page; Thomas Cunningham was protected anyway, so I couldn't do that. Stop making unfounded and unnecessary accusations. You should know that. Tsk tsk.Thistheman 19:30, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Since I have a few free moments before boarding my plane, check out this diff and stop lying. —WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL•16:30, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- You're pointing me to the article, while the questionable material was on the talk page. Okay, sure, I deleted the tag, but then the other admin put up the protected tag immediately afterwards. How can I possibly do anything with a protected tag?. So, in a sense, you're correct; but in the sense of putting up that comment, you are wrong in assuming that I deleted a tag. Tsk tsk. Off my case now, please; I've moved on, hope you do too. Have a nice trip. Thistheman 18:52, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- I didn't say that you had deleted the tag, just removed it. It was, as you say, quickly reverted as you were being watched at the time. I realize you have moved on. I just felt that I needed to respond to your earlier claim of unfounded accusations. The "stop lying" was unnecessary. I'm a bit testy having gotten a total of 4 hours of sleep over the course of the last two nights. Sorry. I am off your case now. Please don't take this as wikistalking as it wasn't meant as such, just defending comments. Happy wikiing!—WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL•04:22, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Your continued harrassment and vandalism
Repeated vandalism will result in blocking. Removal of deleted tags is considered vandalism (duh) as is what you did to my /welcome. I refer you to the link above. Also, Thomas Cunningham, the article, is being watched by numerous editors. In response to what you wrote on that article's talk page, I am doing many contructive things for Wikipedia, but have taken some time off to devote to you. I'm assuming good faith on your part that when you called me and others pathetic and told me to do something, you meant that we weren't working very hard. I'm not biting you as you are a newbie and may not know your way around. I'm also assuming good faith, despite loads of evidence in support, that you are not an attack sock. It is true that there is more than one person in the world who doesn't like me so your statement "Others, don't like him either." while incorrectly punctuated, is correct. You also said "Bad apple" in an ambiguous way. I am from Washington, known for its apples some of which are probably bad, but the connection goes much deeper and more personal than that. I recently had my directory information deleted by a disk utility program Apple gave me, so if this was meant to be a declarative (i.e. "Apple is bad."), I would have to agreee, however their hardware still can't be beat. Oh,and just in case you meant that to be a personal attack on me, keep it up and you will be banned. WAvegetarian (talk) (email) (contribs) 10:55, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the page User:WAvegetarian, this is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. (ESkog)(Talk) 06:18, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Rx StrangeLove 06:42, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
I demand to be unblocked!!! I did nothing wrong. I've been scammed!
I don't understand why you're here.
So far you have made only 3 edits that weren't speedy deleted or reverted:
- a minor typo fix: 05:18, January 5, 2006 (hist) (diff) Dag Hammarskjöld
- a vote in a Tfd: 06:18, January 11, 2006 (hist) (diff) Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Template:Infobox Biography (→Template:Infobox Biography)
- a rejected request for protection of an article: 05:10, January 5, 2006 (hist) (diff) Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
We are trying to write an encyclopedia here. Please take some time during this block to consider whether you want to be part of a community formed for that purpose. If you do, I will welcome you back into the community and look forward more positive contributions from you. If you don't want to be part of this community, please stop harassing other editors and let us get on with our work. If you wish to respond you may do so here or email me, which will get a faster response as I'm on a wikibreak except for dealing with pressing issues like vandalism to my user page. —WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL• 08:07, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Reinstate him
He promises to be better. I am his father writing. Reinstate him.
Confusion
Please someone tell me why I have been blocked yet again, and what the following message means: 'Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Thistheman". The reason given for Thistheman's block is: "repeat vandal, WP:POINT on RFA, general disruption".'
I am just slightly confused; whose page have I vandalized now? Thank you.
- It's saying you're "Disrupting Wikipedia to make a point", and you shouldn't do that, as per WP:POINT. I can vouch for that. You're voting no on a lot of requests for adminship for seemingly no reason. And you certainly do disrupt RfA at least. Sorry, but it is the truth. Deskana (talk) 19:10, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Ok thanks for clarifying that, Deskana, but to say that I have been voting no to a lot of requests for adminship is also false. I did it once, and I have been blocked for 24 hours. I understand that you have an encyclopedia to run and that my disruption has caused inconvenience. I apologize for that. However, I could have at least been warned by the administrator that blocked me; it was quite a bit surprising to suddenly be blocked again. That is what irks me.Thistheman 03:29, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
A Request to Alkivar
Please stop blatantly opposing every move I make and every vote for adminship that I add. I am only trying to become a better user of Wikipedia. Not all people give reasons to vote; there are such things as clothespin votes, where a person picks a candidate because he is the less objectionable candidate. To make you happy, however, I gave a response as to why I voted against the adminship. Hoping that this is sufficient enough. Thank you. Thistheman 01:03, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
admin nomination: ish ishwar
hi. i dont think that we have ever met. thank you for considering me for adminship. i dont know if i am a good choice, but if you think so, then perhaps others may agree (?).
so, i am informing you that i accept the nomination. let's see what happens.
by the way, thanks for putting a link to Bhangra on your user page. i havent encountered this yet, but it sounds interesting — i'll see if i can find some cassette or cd. peace – ishwar (speak) 16:52, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
Request for edit summary
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

Invitation and Recommendations for writing articles on Hindi Wikipedia
Hindi wikipedia invites and welcomes Wikipedians to contribute for the cause of spreading knowledge and the Hindi language. This page contains guidelines for writing a wiki-article on any topic at the Hindi Wikipedia, with special recommendations for writing in Hindi (Note: The script/font-family for Hindi is Devanāgari; the script/font-system for English is Roman script, also, the Hindi spelling system is not completely standardized). This article is yet in English language (mostly), in order to encourage even non-native/foreign people who have learnt/are learning Hindi to contribute to the Hindi wikipedia, and native Hindi speakers who normally write in English. The examples given below are only for explanation.
Recommendations:
- Firstly for proper viewing, it is recommended to keep all links NOT-UNDERLINED. Otherwise the मात्रा below the Hindi alphabets might get partly hidden behind the underlines. For this, please go to My Preferences (मेरी पसंद) at the top of the page, then click Misc., and then choose "underline links -> Never". Save your settings. Also, do not click yes for "justify paragraphs", otherwise on some browsers, the devanagari script will appear highly distorted.
- All users are requested and encouraged to contribute articles here, especially, to create new articles on general topics. They are also encouraged to expand the existing articles, and improve upon them. A non-user can also do the same; it is recommended but not required to register yourself as a wikipedian user at the Hindi wikipedia. As far as possible, each article should be written with a Neutral Point of View (NPOV)—no nationalistic or partiality or hatred based articles are welcome. The articles should be based on facts—and appropriate references should be provided as and where needed. See the English wiki's help page for editing in general. Almost all the general wiki-features are available for editing on Hindi wiki too. Guidelines for the content matter is mostly the same as given in English wiki.
- Since the Hindi wiki is at its initial stages, users are welcome to take introduction and basic points from the English (or another) wikipedia's corresponding article and translate them for small articles. An in-page link to the English wiki's article will be deemed sufficient for references (a template might be created stating this). For longer articles, it is recommended to mention the references separately.
- Since most computer users in India and elsewhere have the standard Western-type keyboard, it is best recommended (but not necessarily required) to use the virtual (software) keyboard like the one of Hindimozhi or of ISIS (Tavultesoft Keyman)—which are freewares. These are advantageous because the contemporary Hindi-speakers in India often write messages/chat using Hindi words but written in Roman (English) script, and the layout of these keyboards is quite the same that such people use. For example, using the "normal" keyboard with this software, typing ga would give ग and ghaa would give घा.
- Create the article with its name written in Hindi (devanagari script). Always take care to include the nukta (dot below) for foreign / Urdu loanwords wherever it occurs in the standard spelling. For non-Indian names, use that spelling (for article name and other words) which is commonly encountered in Hindi newspapers, G.K.-books, Hindi-dubbed TV documentaries and Hollywood films and magazines. e.g., America-अमरीका (या अमेरिका), China-चीन, French-फ़्रांसिसी. For English acronyms/short-forms, use the initials in Roman script, and again create a full form in Hindi and redirect it to the short form. e.g. IPA (अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय ध्वनि वर्णाक्षर); UNO (संयुक्त राष्ट्र संघ). Doing the opposite is also fine. But creating the article with the Hindi short form, as सं०रा०सं०, is not recommended. Also, the article proper must be written with the proper nukta, as फ़ारसी, and then, a non-nukta (mis-)spelt version फारसी should preferably be created to redirect to the correct spelling.
- Hindi wikipedia strongly recommends the users to write articles in everyday common Hindi in the खड़ीबोली dialect (Hindustani or Hindi-Urdu, i.e., बोलचाल वाली हिन्दी, which may include many loanwords from Persian and Arabic). The use of शुद्ध संस्कृतनिष्ठ हिन्दी is in general neither required nor recommended. E.g., use: वजह instead of कारण, ख़ास instead of विशेष, वगैरह instead of इत्यादि, लेकिन instead of परन्तु etc. However, for technical and specialized vocabulary, the use of शुद्ध संस्कृतनिष्ठ हिन्दी is recommended and usually mandatory. Thus: upper House of Parliament—संसद का उच्च सदन, but not Urdu—मजिलिस का ऐवान-ए-बाला ; Foreign Minister—विदेशमन्त्री, but not Urdu—वज़ीर-ए-ख़ारिजा ; knowledge/science—ज्ञान/विज्ञान, but not इल्म. Use spoken Hindi's ये and वो instead of यह and वह / वे. Do not use the title of respect जी after names, it is unencyclopedic. Thus: कृष्ण / श्री कृष्ण but not कृष्ण जी. Use the आप form and its corresponding 3rd person verbal conjugation for writing about respectable persons. Thus: श्री वाजपेयी मध्य प्रदेश में जन्मे थे. But not: वाजपेयी मध्य प्रदेश में जन्मा था. But do not use the pronoun "आप" itself in-text in biographies.
- English should be used sparingly, only when required; i.e., if the corresponding शुद्ध हिन्दी word is too "difficult and not generally encountered", or if it is a proper name of non-Indian person/place/terminology/title, or if the user is highly unsure of the proper translation. It is recommended (but not required) for English-to-Hindi translation while writing articles, the Shabdkosh online dictionary should be used. For each English word, that alternative should be used which is generally encountered in everyday spoken Hindi, and also fits well into the context. Use of intelligent guesses for newly encountered words is also allowed, and so are translations encountered in Hindi-dubbed TV documentaries, Hollywood films, Hindi-translated books, etc. e.g., दमपिशाच for en:Dementor (used in dubbed HP films).
- If used, it is recommended to use the English words within the articles using the English (Roman) alphabets rather than devanagari (or better, the devanagari transliteration should be used in the sentence, followed by the English word in Roman alphabet in parentheses). Such words should be italicized and not put in quotation marks. Preferably, there should be an in-page interwiki link (like :en:) on the word to the English wikipedia. If the word comes as an integral part of a sentence, so as not to break the continuity, the en: prefix should be hidden by writing the word again after the pipe sign (piped link). Thus, recommended:
हैरी पॉटर ने ''[[:en:Pensieve|Pensieve]]'' के अन्दर ''[[:en:Little Hangleton|Little Hangleton]]'' गाँव में लॉर्ड वोल्डेमॉर्ट की माँ ''[[:en:Merope Gaunt|Merope Gaunt]]'' को देखा. ''[[:en:Resplendent Quetzal|Resplendent Quetzal]]'' पक्षी के ऊपर एक मेक्सिकन पादरी डा० ''[[:en:Pablo de la Llave|Pablo de la Llave]]'' ने काफ़ी शोध किया था.
Whence,
- हैरी पॉटर ने Pensieve के अन्दर Little Hangleton गाँव में लॉर्ड वोल्डेमॉर्ट की माँ Merope Gaunt को देखा
- Resplendent Quetzal पक्षी के ऊपर एक मेक्सिकन पादरी डा० Pablo de la Llave ने काफ़ी शोध किया था
- Always start the first 1 or 2 lines of the article giving its definition (from any standard dictionary/other wiki) or suitable introduction. Thus, recommended: ललिता सहस्रनामन हिन्दू धर्मसुधारक आदि शंकराचार्य द्वारा रचित देवी दुर्गा को समर्पित एक पूजा-मन्त्र है, जिसे कई हिन्दू रोज़ श्रद्धा से जपते हैं । But not: ललिता सहस्रनामन मन्त्र जपने के लिये लड्डू-पेड़ा, ताम्बुल, सिन्दूर, लाल चुनरी के साथ नित्य इस मन्त्र का पाठ करें, तो जल्द ही गड़ा हुआ ख़जाना मिलेगा । Recommended: वैमानिक अभियान्त्रिकी (en:Aeronautical engineering) विमानों (en:Aircrafts) की अभिकल्पना, निर्माण और प्रचालन करने का विज्ञान, कला और कार्य है । (translated from Eng. Webster's New World Dictionary). But not: आजकल वैमानिक अभियान्त्रिकी के लिये देशभर में कई कॉलेज खुल गये हैं, जिनमें अग्रणी स्थान यूटोपिया स्थित लालू-यादव टेक्लिनक कॉलेज का है ।
- For names of countries, cities, places, languages, people, books, films, technical vocabulary, mythology, etc, start the article like this:
- 1.
The name in bold ('''अपोलो''')
- 2.
starting parenthesis, then English name in Roman script, in-page interwiki-linked to English wiki ff. by semicolon ((अंग्रेज़ी : [[:en:Apollo]];)
- 3.
The native name(s) if applicable in the italicized native script, preferably followed either by its italicized approximate Hindi pronunciation or non-italicized
phonological transcriptionwithin / /, ff. by closed parenthesis (यूनानी : ''Aπollων अपोल्लोन''))
- 4.
the rest of the definition or introduction (प्राचीन [[यूनानी धर्म]] (ग्रीक धर्म) और प्राचीन [[रोमन धर्म]] के सर्वोच्च देवता थे ।)
For country names, only the standard short form of the name is needed in the first line. If there is a common name for a difficult word in Hindustani, also mention it. Whence: अपोलो (अंग्रेज़ी : en:Apollo; यूनानी : Aπollων अपोल्लोन) प्राचीन यूनानी धर्म (ग्रीक धर्म) और प्राचीन रोमन धर्म के सर्वोच्च देवता थे । If you don't give the interwiki English/another language link (which would be deemed to be the default reference), then you MUST provide an appropriate reference.- Please leave no article without an appropriate category. See the list of created categories here; you can also make a new category (pref. in Hindi). Please leave no article without at least ONE off page (like en:) interwiki link. E.g., the user can check the article name (say Apollo) on the finally redirected English page and append to the Hindi article (
[[en:Appolo]])
). These interlanguage links will help a bot to update all interwiki links for that article in all wikipedias. The category and the aforementioned link should be typed at the end of the article. If the article is very small, mention it as a stub/substub.- Use of templates is welcome. See the list of templates here. If creating a template, name it pref. in Hindi.
- Use पूर्णविराम ( । ) instead of a period (.) for ending statements. The पूर्णविराम, semicolon, colon and dash (but not comma) must come after one space after the word to prevent ambiguity. Use the international form of the Hindu-Arabic numerals (1,2,3 instead of १,२,३), as used by the Constitution and the Government of India (even for Hindi). There is no need to use the हलन्त at the end of Sanskrit words wherever it occurs. Hence, prefer: संसद over संसद्; अथर्वन over अथर्वन्. Use the proper quotation marks “” from the Insert toolbox, not "". Write dates as 2 मई 2006 (ईसवी or ईसापूर्व). Write time as 3:45 pm. Separate common suffix-words like शास्त्र, विज्ञान, ज्ञान with a hyphen. Thus: रसायन-शास्त्र. For most others, leave both the words of the noun-cluster free. Combine them into one word only if it is very common to do so. Thus: सामवेद.
- The use of ज़ for the en:voiced alveolar fricative (/z/, as in zoo, rose) is fundamentally wrong. Its nearest counterpart is the en:voiceless alveolar fricative /s/ (as in sea), and not Hindi ज (en:voiced palatal plosive). Hence, it is suggested and recommended that for the sound /z/, whether it comes in English (etc.) spellings (z) for while pronunciation otherwise, should be transcribed as स़ (स with a dot below, available in the Insert toolbox). Hence: Reason रीस़न, not रीज़न ; Roses रोस़ेस़, not रोज़ेज़. But common Hindi words borrowed from Persian/Arabic (so-called Urdu words) are allowed to continue with ज़ spelling. Thus: ज़रा, नज़र, तर्ज़. The en:voiced postalveolar fricative (/ʒ/ as in treasure), inexistent in Hindi, can similarly be transcribed with श़. Thus: treasure ट्रॅश़र. The nukta (dot) available in the Insert toolbox can be combined with various consonants to suggest a more exact phonetic devanagari rendering of foreign sounds. E.g., since phonetically, English Think and this are not equal to थिंक and दिस, a better transcription could be थ़िंक and द़िस. Please take care of the dot below in so-called Urdu words, otherwise the Hindi spelling is deemed incorrect.
- For the following English vowels met, mate, mat, transcribe as मॅट (short vowel), मेट (not मेइट), मैट (not मॅट, as popular in Marathi). However in contemporary Hindi and here, it is acceptable to use ए instead of ऍ. Thus: अमेरिका is more popular than अमॅरिका. For cot, coat, caught, transcribe as कॉट, कोट, कॉट (not कौट). Transcribe English /t/ and /d/ as ट and ड.
- Use half-न before त, थ, द, ध, न, instead of anuswaar अं. Use half-म before प, फ, ब, भ, म. Use the anuswaar before all the rest of the consonants (not half-ङ, ञ, ण). If the मात्रा is not above the alphabet, use chandra-bindu, but only for nasalization. Thus: अन्दर, not अंदर ; अन्त, not अंत ; हिन्दी, not हिंदी ; सम्भव, not संभव ; पंचमी, not पञ्चमी ; अंडा, not अण्डा ; कंठ, not कण्ठ ; लैंड, not लैण्ड ; आँख, not आंख. However, both forms are acceptable in contemporary Hindi as well as here; the prec. are just recommendations.
- When proceded by another vowel, use the pure vowels instead of य (unless the य is clearly articulated while pronouncing). Thus : जाएँ, not जायें (not जावें) ; आएगा, not आयेगा . However, both forms are acceptable in contemporary Hindi as well as here.
- Please pay careful attention to the masculine/feminine gender (and singular/plural) in adjectives and verbs, else the sentence becomes ungrammatical.
For more information/suggestions/criticisms, please contact any one of the administrators of Hindi wiki here, preferably en:User:Magicalsaumy.

Templates
To make templates, just go into Happy Birthday, edit it, replace the image with a different image, change the border colour, change the background colour, change the wording, copy it all, don't save, paste it somewhere (like the talk page), and you're done! As long as you've got a base like that to work with, templates are actually very easy to make. If you need any help, just ask (though I'm not that experienced, so you might want to ask someone else the complex questions, and I'm not sure about substing...) ;) Sergeant Snopake 08:24, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!
Thank you, and I hope to have a good wikibreak. Maybe I'll pop in from time to time. (I realized the day after I wrote that that it wasn't the 26th Amendment, but I had no idea which one it was, so I couldn't change it!) Steveo2 10:58, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
I don't think it is necessary, since all of Hawaii is covered by one market. Template:HI-tv will suffice as a member of Category: Intrastate Broadcast Templates. CoolKatt number 99999 03:55, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi there - I just saw your edit to WFUV and was wondering where I could find that information - is it available on a public database? Thanks, H0n0r 18:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for Supporting my RfA!
I know what you're thinking: "I voted on his RfA?" Indeed you did, I am pleased to report that it passed successfully by a margin of 54/6/1. Sorry for the tardy "thank you," but I have been busy watching the FIFA World Cup, and have had some events in my life that have delayed these hand-typed thank yous. I anticipate my "great contribs" will continue throughout my adminship, and I anticipate to always be appreciative. So, thanks again, and sorry for the tardy thank you. Ian Manka Talk to me! 18:45, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Some assistance please
Is there any way that I can currently check my edit count (and details about the edit count, as listed in RfA's) using Internet Explorer? Interiot's Tool2 apparently doesn't work with IE. Thanks. Thistheman 20:42, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

User:Misza13's pile!
Thank you for contributing the impressive the pile of supports gathered on my RfA, which passed with a final tally of 0x0104/0x01/0x00. I'm happy that so many people have put faith in my abilities as an admin and promise to use the tools wisely and do my best not to let you down. If I ever may be of assistance, just leave a note on my talk page. Misza13, the rouge-on-demand admin wishes you happy editing!

Repeated vandalism does result in blocking. Removal of past disputes is considered a Good Thing™ (duh) as is what you did to my RfA. I refer you to the link above. Also, WAvegetarian, the RfA, was supported by numerous editors. In response to what you wrote on that RfA, I am doing many contructive things for Wikipedia, but have taken some time off to devote to you. I'm assuming good faith on your part that when you called me an excellent vandal fighter and supported my request for adminship, you meant that I didn't have enough work to do as it is. I'm not biting you as you are no longer newbie and know your way around. I'm also assuming good faith, despite loads of editors in support, that you are not a support sock. It is true that there is more than one person in the world who wanted to nominate me so your statement "In fact, I was planning to nominate him, darn!" while incorrectly punctuated, is correct. You also said "good vandal fighter" in an unambiguous way. I am frequent Recent changes, known for its vandal fighters some of which are probably good, but the connection goes much deeper and more personal than that. I not so recently had my user page deleted by a vandal who turned out to be a good editor so if this was meant to be a declarative (i.e. "Vandals can be reformed."), I would have to agreee, however they usually just get bored and leave. Oh,and just in case you meant that to be a sign of WikiLove towards me, keep it up and you will be thanked. WAvegetarian (talk) (email) (contribs) 07:27, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Heh, quite an experience indeed.
