SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 02:15, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"666old man's child 666"

Waggers, your indefinite block of this UID was entirely proper, but I'm not sure about even raising the possibility of an appeal against it. After all, the UID is pretty obviously just a sock of Tuskjet. -- Hoary 12:21, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My report on user:Find rawat

Hi Waggers. I see you removing User:Find rawat from WP:AIV and you said that he only has 1 edit, not enough for only-vandalism account. But the fact that his edit is exactly the same as the IP 212.72.22.140's edit. That's why I report both the IP and the user. Hope this clarify. Thanks. AW 10:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User talk page protection

Can you protect User talk:Bapboo? He is abusing the unblock template after being blocked by you. Momusufan 15:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

At first glance, I believe I agree with your assessment that the account was probably comrpomised; did you have an opinion on the current unblock request? – Luna Santin (talk) 03:36, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks alot :)

Thanks for un-banning me. I told my friends that I got because of them today and they looked a bit shocked. They promised not to do it again (if that's true I'm not sure though =p) although now I've learnt my lesson and I'm logging out as soon as I leave the computer even for a few minutes =p

Thanks again for un-blocking me quickly,

-David

Review of User:Rahulkhare/BatchMaster Software

Waggers: At the outset, please accept my heartfelt appreciation for being so lucid in your reponse.

I have tried to make changes to my proposed article as suggested by you. I will greatly appreciate if you could visit the page again and let me know if I am headed in the right direction.

As far as notability is concerned, BatchMaster is the first name that comes to the mind of process manufacturers when they are looking for an ERP solution. Please feel free to visit our sebsite http://www.batchmaster.com for details.

I eagerly await your comments on my proposed article on BatchMaster Software, Inc. at User:Rahulkhare/BatchMaster Software.

Rahulkhare 08:09, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Waggers: Made the changes you suggested. I have learnt a lot about writing articles in Wikipedia from my interactions with you.

The article space for BatchMaster Software is still protected by Mike Rosoft. Do I need to request him to unprotect it or any administrator can do it? How can we ensure that other administrators who have not followed this discussion do not remove it from Wikipedia?

My heartfelt thanks once again.... Rahulkhare 04:38, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bookajet Reversion

I recieved the following message:

"Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Bookajet. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Waggers 08:56, 4 July 2007 (UTC)"

I was actually trying to update the information on Bookajet, as an authorised person within the company. Unfortunately, the reversion has taken the page back to Aug 2006... any chance I can update our company information without the risk of appearing as a vandal?

Why does Wikipedia Appear to Hate Me?

Why does Wikipedia Appear to Hate Me? For the record, I am writing about the British version of MAD Magazine, as < MAD UK > / < British MAD >, but this seems to be an uphill trawl:

1) I have a message saying that 'There are very few or no other articles that link to this one'.

The main entry for the US MAD Magazine lists the British version but, when I tried thrice to edit this to refer to mine, someone/something appeared to take exception and change it back, excluding my x-ref.

2) My article is flagged as < Information in this article or section has not been verified against sources and may not be reliable. Please check for inaccuracies and modify as needed, citing the sources against which it was checked. >

However, I am one of two living authorities on the subject, recognised as such by the last (deceased) publisher, who also published my work, < 25 Years of MAD Magazine >, and have now included references to that effect.

3) I am now told I have copy/pasted data from somewhere else; yet the material is all mine, original, and any copy/pasting has been done for my own convenience.

Please help!

David
