AfD vs. db-a7

Hello-- regarding this edit, I recommend taking that from a speedy to an AfD if you believe it merits such action. A number of IP editors have contested your tag. It's on my watchlist because it's been through this cycle several times before. Might be time to get consensus. Thanks! Jokestress (talk) 07:10, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, thanks. I see it was deleted once in October, but will go ahead and leave it for the community to decide. Oddly, the bottom IP on the talk page actually left a misformatted message basically saying it should be deleted. Not sure they understood what they were doing.

Template: Seether

I was looking at Seether's template and I noticed the demos weren't on there. I attempted to put them on there myself, but for some reason they don't show up. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Seether&action=edit&oldid=486124382 Do you know how to put them in? And also, I was looking at [[

Template:Bullet for My Valentine|Bullet for My Valentine's template]] and I noticed the singles were organized grouped by the albums they were released from. Do you know how to put that in as well? (They contributed "I've Got You Under My Skin" under His Way, Our Way album so I don't know where that would go in the template.)

Thanks. How may I serve you? Marshall Williams2 Talk Sign Contribs 21:02, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. I made an edit to the template to make the demos appear properly (it was just formatting). I will start building a new template for Seether's singles by album. For those that would not fall under any specific album, they would fall under "other singles" or similar. See Template:Linkin Park for another example. Calabe1992 01:25, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 Done. Tell me what you think. Calabe1992 01:52, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Helperbot

Total mistake. Didn't mean to do it, would be stupid to revert a bot that will just remove it again anyway. Didn't even realise i had done it.Edinburgh Wanderer 13:43, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Figured that was what happened, but wanted to make sure. (I've reverted it when it has edit conflicted and removed the wrong reports, but didn't see that as the case here.) Calabe1992 13:44, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Moved

Not sure what has happened, have previously successfully added to and edited text. Now looking to add an authority page with references on one of my specialist subjects and this has not been permitted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alert Publishing (talk • contribs)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

I did not attacked him. I stayed very polite, and invited him to a debate. Please, there is a difference between an attack and a polite invitation to a discussion. Of course, I must express my disagreement on his method, consisting of instantly remoove a contribution that took days to do, without talking about it on the discussion page. If this is a free encyclopedia, everyone's contribution should be handled the same way and not dismissed because a wikipedian with higher priviledge say so. Thank you very much. If i'm banned because of this message, than It will mean wikipedia is no more the free encyclopedia that it sworn to be. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.204.239.254 (talk) 20:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You accused him of violating his privileges. First, read over WP:AGF, and then look around WP:HELP to learn more about this encyclopedia. Calabe1992 20:50, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, but I read these rules, which I entirely approve. I am a big wikipedia fan and I have great hopes for this encyclopedia in the future. But you should read about the whole matter before sending me a warning like if I was a delinquent . He removed a whole 5 days contribution ( it took 5 days to find all the sources), that was well sourced (more than 10) and veridic. I don't think he has the rights to do that without discussing the matter in the discussion page. If he can do this without having any penalties, this means that he can subsequently do whatever he wants on this encyclopedia and undo/ban whoever he wants or whatever contribution he wants without giving the concrete proof that something his wrong. This means that he can write lies and undo true facts without being edited himself : this is not and should not be the case, I red all the wikipedia rules. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.204.239.254 (talk) 21:00, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, instead of assuming bad faith, I would politely ask him why it was removed. Taking a look at the edit, it was performed with an automated program, and could even have been a mistake. I would recommend you politely ask why the edits were reverted, rather than accuse him of wrongdoing. Calabe1992 21:04, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, I was a bit nervous because it took me 5 days, but now i have calmed down. I just wanted things to move quickly, but now I know it's better to reamin calm. I will ask him to go debate on the discussion page, and to stop undoing my contribution, before proving its wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.204.239.254 (talk) 21:18, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Continuing to revert is only going to get you blocked for WP:Edit warring. Calabe1992 21:21, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Calabe1992

I noticed that you have "Reverted addition of dubious unsourced content" on the Christianity page. Please contact me on my talk page if you are having trouble understanding the source. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ghostprotocol888 (talk • contribs) 21:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of "will Darwin come" page

Hi Calabe, I deleted this short page and put the summary of it in "Luc Perino"'s page, on which I am working again. It's only a few lines and I thinks Luc Perino's bioagraphy is already short. I took note of AllyD's helpful comments. Hence the deletion. I think it is appropriate. Daceton (talk) 21:48, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I overlooked that you were the original author of the page. Happy editing. Calabe1992 22:21, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template: Seether

Beautiful work on the Seether template. Thanks. How may I serve you? Marshall Williams2 Talk Sign Contribs 22:03, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Calabe1992 22:21, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Attacks by IP

Hi, thanks for reverting the attack on my talk page so quickly. If you view the history of Cybermud's talkpage you'll see such abuse has being going on every so often for some time now, all from UK IPs.--Shakehandsman (talk) 00:25, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, but oddly enough, looks like I missed some of it. Now  Done. Calabe1992 00:27, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Whoever's behind that IP seems to have issues tonight. ;) Calabe1992 00:38, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
They'll be back to harass Cybermud one day. The previous IPs I know of are User:109.144.229.69, User:109.144.208.183, and User:109.144.255.187. All BT IPs in the UK.--Shakehandsman (talk) 00:45, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Interesting. I've watchlisted the talk pages for now. Cheers. Calabe1992 00:48, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I see Cybermud's topic ban was scheduled to end on the 10th and he's ceased editing completely for it's duration. It looks to me as if the attack was timed purposely so he'd see it on his return in the hope of angering him.--Shakehandsman (talk) 01:15, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good lord. I'll keep an eye on the page. Calabe1992 01:16, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't post anything offencive.

Whether there is a need or not to conduct spell checks, he has been BLOCKED~!

I changed the word 'bag' to the word 'sack' on the cockles page. I am now subject for ban. This is not fair. The End. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Idontneednospellcheck (talk • contribs) 14:13, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reopened ANI discussion

Back on 28 March I closed a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, which I thought was finished with. You were one of the contributors to the discussion. Another editor later posted a further comment below the closed section, and, having read that comment, I decided that the issue was perhaps not as unambiguously finished as I had thought, so I reverted my closure. Nobody posted any more comments to the section, and it is now archived at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive744#Wiki user:Fasttimes68 is vandalizing pages referencing celebrity model Stephanie_Adams. However, an editor has now suggested that I should have informed those who contributed to the discussion that it had been reopened, so I am doing so. It is very likely that nobody had any more to add, but if you would have done so then I apologise for not informing you at the time. If you do wish to say any more about it then it will be necessary to open a new section at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, since the old one is archived. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:48, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No further comments here, long done with that one. Thanks for checking anyway, however. Calabe1992 18:10, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bad Faith?

Hello, sir. You made an edit on my page indicating that I had engaged in "bad faith." I am not sure what that means. I merely asked for a better explanation. In the edit summary there were links to wikipedia policy on source reliability, point of view, biographies of living persons. I read them all and still don't understand the issue. In my edit I employed quotations from the subject in order to insure accuracy. The sources were from the Toledo Blade, the website for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the International Business Times and a video of the subject's press briefing.

Everything is verifiable and everything is accurate and everything is neutral. Really, the objections are mystifying. I make these comments in good faith.
