Thank You For Helping Adhere to Standards

Geniac, It's a pleasure to know that you have an objective viewpoint of content. Your looking into "Carlos Manzano" and helping maintain civility and etiquette will make Wikipedia a better source for everyone. But I ask you to examine users "Westie2" and "Manzano2005" who disguise to include misleading, false and meaningless information. Check them out for new user names.

Wikipedia:Articles for creation/2006-06-13

"It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Wikipedia:Articles for creation/2006-06-13." It was my intention as the article in question exists. Both myself and Michael Herbert who added the entry here have edited the existing page. MichaelW (talk) 03:42, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

=APTN Image

I am removing the template because that image is no good. The image is distorted and should not be used to replace the current image. 99.236.63.51 (talk) 20:22, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

re

why is my userpage being taged as a sockpuppet.i've never even herd of cowbowboycaleb and my ip is being called something that it isn't.where is the evidence? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.5.57 (talk) 03:33, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are you kidding or what?

I can understand asking me to log in, that was a mistake on my part, I sometimes forget when the correction or addition I'm making is very small. In terms of re-writes or large additions I always remember to login. I understand that even though it was my own userpage I should have logged in so users can assist administrators in avoiding these kind of problems, but all I did was take out the word "and" then added a "coma" in it's place! Whether that was me or not does not constitute "vandalism" in my opinion and more than likely under the opinion of the majority of Wikipedia users and the average person. I think that the term vandalism should be used when applicable, which in this case it was not. Even if the user was not the one who made the small change, any changes to userpages such as spelling mistakes or grammatical errors should never be labeled vandalism. I understand under Wikipedia regulations that making changes to any userpage that is not your own must be addressed, but at the same time administrators should be aware of their language and tone, being that a word such as vandalism may be taken as an insult or a disrespect when one is dealing with intentions that had no malice or ill will intended within the action, in this case a slight correction of grammar.

In other words I'm basically saying you should always address what needs to be addressed, but in this case the use of better or more appropriate wording or phrasing would be suitable. At times it is a lot easier to offend someone than most think. Unless there "true or honest" vandalism occurs then that word should not be used. Maybe the terms or phrases, "unsolicited or unwanted changes", possibly "inappropriate changes", but "vandalism" is bit harsh when none has occurred.

Not to mention it was my userpage, but once again I understand it was my fault for not logging in, MY BAD!

The Comma

I made more than one correction, my first correction was to take out the word "and" in one of my sentences and then replace it with a comma. After you mentioned it, I do remember making that small addition, "and quite possibly the power from the shadows", my mistake.

No problem anymore, my useprage has been erased! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.193.83.187 (talk) 02:25, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Policy for deleting

I don't understand why I am being threaten with a deletion of my account for "deleting". Perhaps someone in my family or their friends did, but I thought if something isn't correct or doesn't fit in an article, it *should* be deleted. What's the policy for that so I can stop receiving threats about things I have not done. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.127.151.230 (talk) 11:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to be a pain

its just that the two "three rivers OR's" are in adjoining counties, maybe 45 miles apart. I live here right in between them and I think people get confused enough who are locals. I have no problem with any format you are working with, I just hope we can continue to make the distinction clear. 66.220.110.83 (talk) 20:33, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I guess being creative is frowned upon in wikipedia KittenMcduff (talk) 23:31, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Four more stubs

hi!

I see youve been poking around in my students pages... thanks! Ive been looking as well and Im not too pleased with the quality of the work... They can write better than this! Oh well, The deadline to fix these is Tuesday and Ill just be giving out 0s like I warned them I would. After looking at the settlement infobox, Im going to revise this assignment to include a table of info that is best done in the infobox... or a template... like coordinates!!! I dont really understand them and the sentences they wrote with those are a pain.

I plan to have my teachers class look at these next week to make improvements and in 2 weeks Ill have students go back and edit one that they didnt write.

Again, thanks for your help.Thelmadatter (talk) 20:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tellabs page

Hi,

I made major edits to the Tellabs page to make it more comprehensive and objective. Can you please take a look and remove the advertisement flag if its appropriate.

Thanks!

HWolinksy123 (talk)

So sorry I caused that to happen!

What that IP user said in Napoleon Bonaparte's article[2]. I hadn't expected when I said what I said to them that they would go so far as that! Once again, sorry! Wilhelmina Will (talk) 04:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:IllegalAliens.jpg

I updated the template used for Image:IllegalAliens.jpg because it did not allow for adding source information. Can you check if it looks appropriate now? Thanks. Ra1d3n (talk) 06:32, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: User:.NERGAL

Removal of 2005 Talk Page posting

Hello Geniac:

I just noticed you posted at a Talk Page for an IP address beginning with 64.181. You wrote, in part, "at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to User talk:Facts@MT.org, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed."

Could you explain a bit more about Wikipedia policy that led you to revert that? I am not questioning the edit, I just want to understand better the policy and/or precedent behind it.

Thanks,
