Bitesize
Hello
I amended this part of the page , which you have reverted. I probably did not make it clear why i made the change.
On the site it says:-
"With such a simple system, there are not many areas to fault, however, the website does have flaws, that have been pointed out on numerous websites. For example, the Computing Studies section has been criticised for being out of date. Similarly, it has been argued that the crass use of irritating kitcsh piranhas is patronizing and unaesthetically appealing."
It uses this sites as a reference http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/02/06/bitesize_gcse/
But this site only criticises ICT and makes no reference to "irritating kitcsh piranhas". I think this might be one persons point of view. But as i work for the BBC i thought it best just make it clear that the second criticism had no references. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.185.144.122 (talk) 14:55, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
- An edit from an IP mentioning "piranhas" generally looks like vandalism. In any case, I've undone my revert and struck your warning. You might want to cite the source you mentioned above so it does not look as much like vandalism next time. Sorry about that! DARTH PANDAduel • work 15:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
Blanked pages
Don't forget to use: {{db-blanked}}, for instance at Craig edwards, cheers SpitfireTally-ho! 14:26, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- If you look at the revision history, the page was originally tagged with an A7. However, the proper tag for the page would have been a G10. That being said, I was huggling quickly and did not check the creator of the page. A revert (which I did) was all I could have managed. You might want to pop a note to the original CSD tagger instead. DARTH PANDAduel • work 15:03, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
- heh, no problem, I thought after posting you this you were probably just patroling the recent changes and so wouldnt have relised, thanks, best wishes SpitfireTally-ho! 15:05, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Thx. Is it ok now ? Al Maghi (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 21:27, 7 February 2009 (UTC).
- I still question the notability of the subject, but I don't suppose it can be speedied under A7 now. Tag removed. DARTH PANDAduel • work 21:29, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

You're too fast for me! On behalf of all Wikipedia users, thank you for your contributions to help prevent vandalism! Ericdn (talk) 22:42, 7 February 2009 (UTC) |
- Thank you! DARTH PANDAduel • work 22:43, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- I always give credit where credit is due. Thank you, too, for your help! --Ericdn (talk) 22:46, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Music festivals in yorkshire
Sorry about the Music in yorkshire mess - please put me out of my misery and delete the offending item. --Elen of the Roads (talk) 01:07, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- As I am not an admin, I cannot delete the page. However, I have tagged the page and fully expect that it should be deleted shortly. DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:09, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Re: CSD Tagging
With all due respect, if you found that page comprehensible, you may be familiar with some language I evidently am not.
In part I kid. I confess I mostly skimmed it. You're a better editor than I for actually taking the time to read it in depth and address it more accurately. But in the glance I gave it, it seemed quite incomprehensible to me. If it was not, my thanks to you for setting it straight. - Vianello (talk) 01:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- Haha, I'm hardly a better editor. WP:PN is very specific and a personal pet peeve of mine (and of many other users). Technically, it should be a page that is thoroughly incomprehensible: no words of a known language (i.e. a;lsdkgj632q or random strings of characters). The page you had tagged was in English, though it was a load of nonsense. DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:13, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Yeah sorry. Should i just tag it as vandalism then? or A7? Riotrocket8676 You gotta problem with that? 01:17, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- I tagged it with an A7. You'd probably have to take it on a case by case basis... Personally, I'd prefer to be as lenient in CSDing to allow them possibility to expand. In the cases above, the deletion was pretty blatant though. DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:20, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- OK thanks for the help/support. Riotrocket8676 You gotta problem with that? 01:21, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- No problem. DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:23, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Hi again! I found this page: List of Famous Niggahs, and I tagged it G10, since it seems like an attack, because N***** is a derogatory term. Any ideas? Not sure if G10 is appropriate. Thanks. Riotrocket8676 You gotta problem with that? 22:18, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Never mind. Deleted already. Peace. Riotrocket8676 You gotta problem with that? 22:22, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- Your tag was correct, by the way. Both the content and the title can qualify an article as an Attack Page, in my opinion. If the content was good though, a move might have been in order, but seeing as it was deleted, I doubt this is the case. DARTH PANDAduel • work 04:39, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Bottage
Your Bottage is Deconstructive to the human condition; if humanity wants chaos why are you letting a robot computer program correct that? 70.88.99.170 (talk) 01:43, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- I am not using a robot computer program. I am using an editing tool that enhances my ability to undo vandalism, but the vandalism is undone by my hand and not by a bot. DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:45, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- A Fair Compromise. Does wikipedia allow Editing tools that promote vandalism? Just Curious, if the playing field is level
(BTW), I'm sorry to have troubled you with all of this, but I was having so much fun. =) 70.88.99.170 (talk) 01:48, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hardly. It would be quite problematic, wouldn't it? DARTH PANDAduel • work 01:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- But if the playing field is level and Chaos wins, doesn't that mean that Chaos SHOULD win? Why should 'Good' tools that help people be allowed if 'bad' tools that allow people are not allowed? OR, to better phrase it, if I wrote a 'bad' tool, would it be allowed? or would it not be allowed to exist? Should I make my own Chaotipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.88.99.170 (talk) 02:25, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
- No, we just block anybody who supports chaos. It's like the real world: the law is usually more influential and therefore defeats "evil" so to speak. I haven't seen anarchy in an established country for ages. DARTH PANDAduel • work 03:49, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
