Bro ya dead wrong, the edits i made were correct. Contrary to popular belief Jim Thorpe was actually an Italiano. It is not scientificly possible for such a great athlete to not have been from da great nation of ITALIA. So either his records are tainted or he was ITALIANO. I"m inclined to believe the records arent tained. Therefore hes DA BIGGEST ITALIANO and my edits were indeed accurate. iight yo 1 Dabiggestestitaliano (talk) 21:48, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

No, they were pure vandalism, but credit for your patriotism. Avnjay 21:26, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

June 2008

xD just read the argument below. pretty classy I must say..

so whats wrong with the page labelled "Fucknuts"? Its a term quite widely used and quite deserves a wikipedia page.

Just because it is a widely used term doesn't mean that it deserves an encyclopaedia page - otherwise we would have thousands of pages for every single term in the English language. Have a read of the What Wikipedia is not and Notability articles for more information. Also I only tagged the page, an administrator deleted it, which means they agree with me. Why not create one of the articles listed on this page? AvnjayTalk 23:49, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

June 2008 (cont.)

STOP EDITING MY CHANGES TO PAUL KAYE WHAT IM SAYING IS 100% FACT!!

The edit was reverted first by Mifter at 14:24, and I followed suit. It's not really encyclopaedic content (can't put every person's favourite film on their page), has no reference, and doesn't explain how an actor/comedian controls a television channel. I will leave it for the moment to allow you time to provide the necessary information, but if you can't then I will remove it again. Don't just keep adding the same material if it is reverted, that is called edit warring and is guaranteed to get you blocked. Normally you should post it on the article's talk page and see if other editors agree with you. Also please respect the talk page guidelines when writing on talk pages. AvnjayTalk 13:59, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
what do you mean 'how an actor/comedian controls a television channel' he doesnt control it they just got celebs to introduce it,just please stop 'reverting' it theres no point in doing it, and as for your other 'point' people always put actors fave films,so just stop being a dick hed ok?and also ive read the thing on edit war ande it agrees with me notyou because yor not giving any valid reasons for deliting my changes
Please read WP:CIVIL before replying to another post, as otherwise you will find yourself blocked for incivility. I did not revert it last time (as I said I wouldn't) which means another editor agrees with me. I understand what you mean by "introduced" now. Your edits were reverted for introducing what was viewed as non-encyclopaedic content repeatedly even after being warned. I warned you that just re-adding the reverted content is likely to get it reverted again. Put it on the Talk page and ask for a consensus. AvnjayTalk 14:29, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Look what I did!

I tried! It was hard, but I managed to pull it off! BlueJayLover123 :  Chat  12:34, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, well done! It took me ages to work out how to change my signature! Not sure what you meant by "long" links but if you read WP:MARKUP you should find out all (and more than!) you want to know! Happy editing and keep in contact if you need anything, AvnjayTalk 17:04, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

False Warning

That was an act of carelessness on my part. I saw the other persons revert, so I assumed this person wasn't a good faith editor. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Have a nice day!--SJP Chat 23:05, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. You too! AvnjayTalk 23:07, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks:-)--SJP Chat 23:16, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you keep on deleting my post? What's wrong with it?

The following was written by a Korean middle school student in Teacher Jane Lee's English class.

Stephen Hawking is a famous and smart doctor. People say he is a genius. Really! He is a genius! I think he is also a diligent person. Nobody thought he would be a great doctor. Give up!, somebody said to him, but he studied hard and became one of the greatest doctors in history.

Unfortunately everyone can't add their own poem to the page otherwise it would become rather full. There already is an example there so let's just leave it at that one. I wouldn't keep adding it if I were you as it will just lead to you being blocked. AvnjayTalk 11:19, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I beg to disagree. This acrostic was written by a boy who isn't a native English speaker. I think that in itself is impressive and the acrostic is quite creative. There are very few examples for now so it's not "rather full" yet. What's with the threat? And who died and made you God? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.96.239.41 (talk) 11:30, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There are three examples there, two of which are by famous poets and have been published. I am definitely not passing judgement on the poem's quality. Unfortunately we get a lot of people who find it amusing to add their own little contribution to different pages and, of course, we can't accommodate them all. The wonderful thing about Wikipedia is that no editor is God and your opinion is just as valid. So if you think your poem should be added I recommend putting it on the Talk page of the article and asking for other editors' opinions. I wasn't threatening you (I'm not an admin so I can't block you!) just warning you that if you keep adding the material an admin would likely block you for breaking the three revert rule. Any further questions feel free to ask. Have a nice day. AvnjayTalk 21:50, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There ought to be a modification to the "3 revert rule", that it has to be reverted 3 times by 3 different people (of course, anybody can just "call for help" from other trigger-happy editors. This rule was probably put in place to have some sort of check and balance, so that if an entry "does not meet Wikipidia standards", it may be reverted. In the same vein, if one shmuck keeps on posting trash, then he should be blocked. But 2 others should concur, otherwise, 1 person can practically play god by reverting the same entry 3 times, therefore leading the poster closer to being perma blocked. Having an entry reverted 3 times by the same person defeats the purpose of check and balance. Let my post remain and see what the others have to say, without having to call for backup.
Ah but not only you but I would be blocked as well for reverting three times (unless it was clear vandalism). Therefore in a case where vandalism is disputed I would revert it twice if I thought it was inappropriate and then leave it to someone else. Otherwise we would end up in an edit war. Just a friendly reminder as well to sign your posts using four tildes (~). Feel free to post it again and I won't revert it but I would expect someone else would for the reasons outlined above. Anyway I hope you continue to edit in the future. Happy editing. AvnjayTalk 10:36, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

86.134.54.54

Regarding 86.134.54.54 (talk · contribs), I'm not sure that vandalism revert/warning was appropriate in that situation. It seems to me that they meant well, and their combativeness may well stem from feeling bitten by the harsh reception which unfortunately seems to have been their first interaction with any Wikipedians. There may not be a lot you can do, in this particular case, but please be mindful that not all odd edits are vandalism, and that interactions with newcomers can cause very sensitive first impressions. – Luna Santin (talk) 20:31, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I disagree and think that this was a clear case of vandalism. Issue seems to be resolved now though, as per User_talk:86.134.54.54, User_talk:Luna_Santin#86.134.54.54 and Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#86.134.54.54!

Don't let out private info.

I think the last article(86.134.54.54) was an IP address so I checked and it turned out to be someone in London...Just saying that how all hackers (like me) have a source of finding out where someone lives...I suggest people keep their IP addresses to themselves just to be on the safe side. :) Have fun! BlueJayLover123 :  Chat  12:34, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The only way to keep your ip address to yourself on Wikipedia is to sign up and make an account, otherwise it is automatically added so that disruptive users can be blocked. Everyone is definitely encouraged to sign up! AvnjayTalk 11:17, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I realise i reverted a page blanking, however it was already tagged with {{db-band}}. Huggle wouldn't tag it while it had the other on, so i just left it alone. Regardless, ill keep it in mind that the G7 can't be contested and is probably a better choice. Thanks! Metagraph comment 22:50, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that out! I'm going to go ahead and blame that on sleep deprivation :P. Happy huggling! Metagraph comment 22:57, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Content: Boyd County High School.

I Completed what was already there, if you check the History of the page. If the listing of Staff is against Wiki Policy, it should have been removed a long time ago when it was first added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.178.111.32 (talk) 02:55, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know and I wasn't blaming you or warning you or anything, just explaining why I removed your (and others) hard work. Have a good day, AvnjayTalk 08:50, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, since it was blatant that the user was writing about themselves I moved the page to their user space at the same time as you were adding the csd tag. I then undid your edit once I realised that you had made it. I find it is quite common that new users will create articles about themselves when a user page would suffice, so its less intimidating to move the article rather than mark it for deletion. -- roleplayer 18:11, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah I understand now. That's a really good idea - you're right it's definitely more welcoming to new editors! I shall bear it in mind in the future. Happy editing. AvnjayTalk 18:15, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need help with the Agarwood article

Hi, you left a "warning... you will be blocked if..." type of comment on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Hafizmuar

So I was wondering if you are capable of doing that because I am having a LOT of trouble with this guy. I "studied" the history of the Agarwood article a bit and here are some comments about this guy's edits:

  • he has in effect claimed ownership of the article. He reverts any edit made by others FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS, including formatting edits that don't change his content
  • he keeps putting his pictures in 800x600 right in the middle of the page
  • he writes about the importance of his work in malaysia as Professor Sulaiman Bin Doss, etc.
  • Seeing earlier photos he put on the page makes it apparent that he has a commercial interest in this article. He puts his website, cell phone, etc. info plus pics of Agarwood products his company makes.

I have no idea what to do about this besides reverting to a cleaned up version every time he changes it so if you are an admin or know how things work, please help me out! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Althena (talkcontribs) 19:55, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Althena! I'm not actually an admin but I can help you out! I've just been over every edit Hafizmuar has made, which have all been to do with the Agarwood article. Some of the edits, such as this one are ok, if lacking in sources. However, as you say a large number of them are adding spam about a company or a person (also here and in many other places). Other of his edits have been to replace large sections of material with a version which is unreferenced and not quite so encyclopaedic although containing new information, such as here. On Wikipedia though we always try and assume good faith. Therefore, we will assume that Hafizmuar is unaware of what he has been doing wrong and explain it to him on his talk page, which I will do immediately after this post. This might seem a cop out but it is part of Wikipedia's policy to be as gentle as possible! It is, however, also a necessary first step before a User conduct request for comment can be filed, which could be the next step should the edits continue. Because his edits aren't purely and obviously vandalism it would be inappropriate to list at WP:AIV.
Just a quick note for you - could you remember to sign your posts on talk pages with ~~~~ which will put your username and time stamp on your posts?
Feel free to add something after my post on his talk page, just remember to be gentle :)! We'll see what happens next! AvnjayTalk 21:03, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments on Posturewriter

Yes, that was what I was referring to. He is accused of using a sock account, and we can't stand for that. Honestly, I don't see anything else but blocking. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 22:25, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for not replying. Real life kind of took me away. If I read it correctly, it seemed like Posturewriter opened a bunch of single purpose accounts to edit that article. Am I right, or did I misread the entire thing? Arbiteroftruth (talk) 19:35, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: The "horned" Moses

Hey, I tried to be not destructive, i aimed at delevering more info. The chr. Propagandathing with the "horned" Moses is often "hidden under the carpet". Please try to understand me: You simply ca'nt use chr. antijudaistic propaganda without a commentar, so please suppurt a way of commenting the "hornedMoses"-background. --85.178.123.66 (talk) 13:02, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah sorry, I've looked into it a bit more and understand now. My orginal thought was "You can't write things like "following the Christian misinterpretation of the Hebrew Bible"" without a significant source but having read the Wiki page on Moses#Horned_Moses I see what you are getting at. Maybe better to write "following Jerome's mistranslation of the Septuagint" and provide wiki links to both Jerome and the Septuagint. Sounds less controversial that way. Will remove the vandalism warning as well. AvnjayTalk 20:27, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

€€€Talk page or Chat room? Find out now on FOMN(Friendofmicrochip news)!€€€

€€€It all began with a small conversation between Avnjay and Vanderdecken. It was a lonely chat but somehow Dabiggestestitaliano got in and started arguing about something about DA BGGEST ITALIANO. Then someone comes in talking about "Fucknuts" and wanting to create an article about it. So Pedro comes in and gives Avnjay a compliment. Next Avnjay screams "LEAVE ME ALONE!". But do these chatters stop? No!!! More posts come in and in and in! Never stop! Maybe I put in a few but most are other people! So people people people! Leave Avnjay alone! Huh? What? Hold on peoples I have a call coming in. 48 hours later... Ok I'm back to Avnjay's talk page...wait...this is Avnjay's talk page?!?!? WOOHOO! Oh BTW Avnjay. You boy or girl? Bi, Trans, or STR8? Oh fuck...I posted....NVM that! Ok that's the news for today! Come back 1 million years later for our next topic..."Are we dead yet?" Have fun not editing!€€€

Hello, Friendofmicrochips. Although there is a lot of leeway in what goes on a talk page it definitely isn't a chat room and you should always try and respect people's talk pages when you write on them! Have a read of WP:TALK to find out more. AvnjayTalk 18:55, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
€€€My sister stole my Iphone and threatened to burn it if I didn't write this... Then she looked at it and threw my Iphone out the window... I'll never forgive her. And she says whenever I edit or post now I should put 3 €'s at the end and the beggining. You'll never know how I feel. She didn't burn my Iphone but since I'm a scientist she comes in and mixes all the chemicals together and...BOOM!BANG!POOF!(She laughs her EVIL laugh)And my chemistry class is ruined... Still she said sorry and I forgave her(I'm a forgiving person)...Oh great she just came and read while I'm editing and laughed... I forgive her but...Fuck her.€€€

Hey I have a question not a post.

How do you find peoples talk pages when nobody is posting on it and they're all lonely?

Friendofmicrochips :  Chat  12:34, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The best way of doing this is to go to a page such as recent changes (look on the left) and then look for users who have the "talk" link show up red. These are people with empty talk pages. If you want to add lots of Welcome templates then why not activate Friendly. Welcoming new users is a great thing to do. AvnjayTalk 19:01, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I looked at recent changes and looked at the red talk links but the page does not exist and the user pages don't exist and how do I activate Friendly? Maybe the pages don't exist because nothing is on it right? or no?Friendofmicrochips :  Chat
