Strictly Come Dancing

Wow, I didn't know it was that bad. Those articles are pretty exemplary of what a hobby/fan site we have become. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 04:08, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Drmies, it's 99--my IP switches back and forth of its own accord out here in the country. I wouldn't argue with them anymore, or call them names. When I look at the long and mostly unchecked edit histories of accounts like that, it confirms my apprehensions. 73.159.24.89 (talk) 04:12, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you!

Well, what if I call you "meow"?

Drmies (talk) 04:15, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, that's always welcome, and it made me laugh. Thanks, 73.159.24.89 (talk) 04:17, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    And you'll love this edit history [1], which I imagine belongs to a very young and zealous contributor. Over the last few years I've detoured into articles on animated television shows, which are breeding grounds for pre-adolescent cruft and unsourced descriptions. I should have stuck with my strength, because the rest of the site can make a grown man weep. 73.159.24.89 (talk) 04:32, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    73.159.24.89: When ones needs to share concerns about another editor (either with an account or an IP), please try to keep things WP:CIVIL, WP:NPOV and provide sufficient precise WP:DIFFs of edits that might be causing concern. The tone and the vagueness of this report appears to have lead to a block a month later [2] on a somewhat vague [3] and unclear basis.[4]. —Sladen (talk) 15:28, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your good advice, which is much appreciated. I sincerely hope and trust that the thoughts I've shared will be largely understood as expressing exasperation, and are not uncivil or demeaning to a particular individual. 73.159.24.89 (talk) 22:51, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    By the way, while I agree re: the vagueness in my report and the need for diffs, the 86 account also edited prolifically on Nottingham articles, especially those of academies. Not a smoking gun in itself, but neither can it be suggested that there's no possible correlation. 73.159.24.89 (talk) 23:39, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

University of Balamand

Hello!

I noticed that you have removed my addition on the University of Balamand's page because it appeared to be of promotional nature. Kindly note that I was trying to expand that page by adding information and photos retrieved from the University's website. This interest arises from the fact that I am a Balamand Alumni. Although I got slightly upset by your measures, which basically undone a great deal of my work, I truly respect your rules and I can genuinely assure you that my violation was unintentional. Finally, I will try to become more acquainted with your rules and guidelines, and I hope that I won't be considered a repetitive distributor if such unintentional violations arise again during this process.Jadtouma (talk) 18:33, 7 October 2015 (UTC)Jadtouma 21:31, 10/7/2015 (+2 GMT)[reply]

  • Hi, a small portion of what you added, several times, may have been acceptable. But it was easier to revert the entire thing than sift through for what was salvageable, given that the balance of the content was promotional and a blatant copyright violation. Please read Wikipedia's guidelines and feel free to contribute, if you can do so without violating these guidelines and others as detailed at WP:COI. Thanks, 73.159.24.89 (talk) 18:47, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

A special thank you for your help in our battle against vandalism in the SM City Cabanatuan article. Thank you so much for your efforts to improve this encyclopedia, and welcome to Wikipedia! Dэя-Бøяg 02:22, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thank you for your recent anti-vandalism efforts. Appreciate it. --NeilN talk to me 14:10, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

These appear to be the two IPs to which my edits are most frequently attributed now, so this message is an effort to connect them. 2601:188:0:ABE6:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 20:55, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

April 2016

Sorry for the inconvenience, then you can indicate the best in the edit summary what you did so well the second time, because there are plenty of anonymous users who deliberately blanked one page. BerendWorst (talk) 12:05, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks--there are plenty of registered accounts who vandalize, as well. That article is a mess of promotional, unsourced and WP:BLP violations. It may need protection. 73.159.24.89 (talk) 12:07, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
