RETIRED
This user is tired of being on Wikipedia, and has retired from Wikipedia.
vn-30This user talk page has been vandalized 30 times.




BEFORE YOU POST, READ THIS, IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE RULES, I WILL REMOVE IT.

Conspiring against the vandals, eh?

Digusting. Using utmost care, I vandalized your user page twice. TWICE! When I arrived at the unvandalized article, the vandalism counter was set to 115. Following my two malicious edits, [and the subsequent reverts] the vandalism counter was reset to 115. I find this conspiracy to withold the accurate amount of vandalous edits against you from the public utterly horrific. I demand recognition for my desperate attempts to get attention! THIS IS WAR!

Vandals at the ramparts

Thanks for your assistance. I wanted to note the vandalism but couldn't think of anything more erudite than "Knock it off." Your templates look like a great idea and I will use them. It appeared to be a kid's horsing around but still a more formal caution would be appropriate. FWIW Bzuk (talk) 04:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC).[reply]

My RfA

Hey there, I'm writing to inform you that I have withdrawn my request for adminship, which was currently standing at 11 supports, 22 opposes and 6 neutrals. This count could have been so much better if I had understood policy, although I believe that 17 questions is a lot to ask of a user's first RfA. I will take on all comments given at the RfA and will endeavour to meet the high expectations of the RfA voters. WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDENplay it cool. 21:50, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re a question you posted at an RfA

At Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Pb30 question 4, you stated that the candidate had created a certain article. Another user has stated that someone else was the creator of the article. Given the sensitivity of RfA's, please make it a priority to check the facts of this matter and please strike out some of your words if you think you may be in error.

Notability of Devilry

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Devilry, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Devilry seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Devilry, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 16:00, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Angie

I'm not really sure. As she's not so much causing harm as she is being opinionated, most normal methods of dealing with long-term abuse won't work. Likewise, normal dispute resolution hasn't helped. ArbCom is the only ting I can think of that will get a definitive result. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 04:17, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


About the article that i recreated

hi there, thanks for your message and now let me tell you why i've recreated an article about Kord (band) and why i don't understant someone has deleted. First i think this band named Kord it's notable because they are a good band and i find out more details about them on google. I read the Wikipedia policy for artists and because they had at least one charted hit in a national chart, they were for many times subject of half hour a broadcast on a national radio and tv channel, and one of the members was a part for a very well known band of artist named Nicola Nicoleta Alexandru, because of all of this i think they should be present here on Wikipedia, i mean they are notable. I understand that YouTube is not considered a reliable source, but in this case how should i prove that they are notable, that they were a subject of a broadcast on a national tv? I think there are already many motives for Kord (band) being present on Wikipedia. Let me show you some reliable sources that i found about Kord on internet and tell me how should i use this for let others know that Kord is a band which is notable: 1. 2 months ago they were invited in a very well know tv show named TEOVIZIUNEA 2. In december they were the subject of a half hour broadcast on a radio 3. On Myspace i saw so many comments about them from many people which admire their work. 4. One of the members of Kord, named Stefan Corbu was a part of very well known band of artist named Nicola Nicoleta Alexandru . And those are only few reliable sources which i remind right now, and i'm sure that anyone who'll search on internet about them will find out more reliable sources. So, please tell me if i'm not right when i tell that Kord (band) it's notable. Lukassandi (talk) 01:51, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Improving articles

My question was directed at improving the article, since I was under the impression that the character's mother was dead, but the article states that his parents were divorced.

Giant Cabbages

since my page was completely deleted I'm still not done, I'm going to make it again, and again

just for the record Wikipedia is not a reliable resource, it is not a real encyclopedia, almost anyone can edit a page and if it sounds convincing enough it would pass by the inspections of people like you. so i could make a page that sounds true and Wikipedia wont know the difference, at least not for a while. i have seen mistakes before, but don't get me wrong alot of the information is factual but there is enough that is not that would make me want to back up anything i find on Wikipedia with any other websites. plus almost anyone can make websites for that matter, making probably less than 10% of the stuff you find as true creditable websites

did you really just ask me to find you something not notable on wikipedia? you do know all notable means is well known, just hit the random article button on the home page, you can find a one sentence wikipeia page dedicated to a random famous person's sister. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neilbennett (talkcontribs) 05:17, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:AFC Backlog Drive

WikiProject Articles for creation needs your help!
WikiProject Articles for creation has done a tremendous job in working at WP:AFC over the past 7½ months. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication! Together, we've made the submission process easier and more streamlined, developed tools to make the process go faster for reviewers, and cut the backlog down to a mere fraction of what it once was. Well done!

As you all are aware, however, our work is not quite yet done. The project still has 10 archive pages left to complete, which include over half a month's worth of submissions, many of which have not been completely reviewed. We need your help to finish looking over these neglected submissions so that we can finally remove the backlog notice from the page, and put an end to the more than two year old backlog that has been a thorn in our side for ages! Participants will receive an AFC Barnstar, so hurry up and help out while there's still work to be done! Make sure to sign in on the WikiProject's talk page so we know who is involved in what promises to be our final effort to complete this goal. Thank you for all your help!
- Happy editing as always, Hersfold (t/a/c) 16:25, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are receiving this letter because you are listed as a participant in the Articles for creation WikiProject at WP:WPAFC. To avoid receiving further notices, please remove your name from the list. Thanks!

I loved doing it and being your adoptee, but I fell that I've got "the lay of the land" here in Wikipedia. Thanks for everything. Oh ya, I have a question for you: can you still give me the occasional tip? I think I'm going to see if I can adopt someone.-- Barkjo 19:20, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Help!!!

You saw my NavBar, right? Well, I was trying to change the pictures (because I copied it from someone else's page) on it, but it said: Image not found/Image invalid. Do you know what to do?? Please reply on my talk page.-- Barkjo 00:06, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm sure I got the name right! Well, the link to the navbar is here: Template:Barkjon/navbar. The pictures were:

  • The picture at the top of the Club Penguin page
  • The picture of the drumset on my userbox that says: "This user is a drummer"

And others!-- Barkjo 00:09, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! (Administration)

Hey, JetLover. Personally, I think you should run an RfA. I really think you should become an admin. You are so helpful and nice, and have over 10,000 edits! I'd so vote for you if you did. Reply on my talk page.-- Barkjo 22:01, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Censorship

What's the point of contributing if the Article Creator can keep wiping out all Discussion he doesn't like? Like the Dogfights TV Series article still looks more like the Series Homepage or a biased Promotional Add for the Series even future DVD and Computer Game Sales.

Wikicops & Dynamic IPs

Hey, dude. I just got a message from you dated for January of 2008 telling me about an edit "I" did. Well, sorry to piss in your cornflakes, but my ISP uses dynamic IPs, and as such, I have only had this IP since yesterday, when I restarted my DSL modem. 72.155.117.180 (talk) 14:01, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfC news

Dear AfC participant,

  1. Msgj and Tnxman307 are organising the AfC challenge! It's a little competition to help improve some of the articles created through AfC and we are hoping that everyone will get involved. For level 1, you just need to bring a stub up to Start-class. Level 2 is improving a Start-class article to C-class. And so on. To get involved or for more information please see the competition page.
  2. Those of you who haven't reviewed an article recently might not have noticed the new process that was implemented this year. Reviewing articles is now more enjoyable than ever :) You might like to give it a try. All articles waiting for review are in Category:Pending Afc requests. (Please read the updated instructions.)
  3. Please consider adding {{AFC status}} to your userpage to keep track of the number of articles waiting for review. At the time of writing we are officially backlogged, so help is needed!
  4. There is currently a proposal to bring the Images for upload process under the umbrella of WikiProject Articles for creation. The rationale is that both processes are designed to allow unregistered users to take part more fully in Wikipedia, and partipants in each process can probably help each other.

If you no longer wish to receive messages from WikiProject Articles for creation, please remove your name from this list. Thank you.

Sorry about that

I don't usually use pop-ups, so I accidentally reverted to a vandalism revision, rather than reverting it. I've repaired any damaged I inadvertently caused. Apologies. Intelligentsium 19:12, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An exciting opportunity to get involved!

As a member of the Aviation WikiProject or one of its subprojects, you may be interested in testing your skills in the Aviation Contest! I created this contest, not to pit editor against editor, but to promote article improvement and project participation and camraderie. Hopefully you will agree with its usefulness. Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately! Since this contest is just beginning, please give feedback here, or let me know what you think on my talkpage. - Trevor MacInnis contribs 00:51, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Experience

The page has misinformation. It states flutes and saxophones are made with plastic materials which in not true. The information IS relative to those who are beginning. I'm the expert with 30+ year of repairing musical instruments.Nipplefist (talk) 03:54, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While what you're saying might be true, you must include notable sources in the article that say what you're saying in order for it to be included. Without sources, we cannot verify anything and word-of-mouth is not legitimate. If you can find some sources, then great, go slap them in there. SilverserenC 13:39, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Scarlett (G.I. Joe)

  • I’m sorry to bother you, but I thought I should let someone know about a user called Doctorfacts[1]

He/she keeps deleting and adding wrong info on the G.I. Joe Scarlett page and never gives any explanation as to why[2]

To explain what is going on the page as best as I can... he/she keeps stating on the page that there was it implied that Scarlett was romantically involved with the character Duke and then goes on to say that they were together... now that doesn’t make any sense since implied is not an answer and yet in the Relationships section, it says that they were together. There's no source or episode from that cartoon show to prove that. I'm trying to be as accurate as I can on that page and I have listed which episode and have written out the scenes that explain that. But looking at that person's history page, that user goes on to remove any info that says otherwise no matter what and gives no reasons too any of this or that he/she will listen or stop and it seems that very little control goes on over there. Again I'm sorry to be a bother, but I thought someone should know of this. That person just keeps doing that.

This person is out to delete information just because he/she doesn't agree with it.[3]

Something needs to be done. 75.60.208.208 (talk) 20:24, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
