Ouch!
[edit]Hi there. I noticed your deletion of the user page set up by User:Nonzionist. Well, I certainly can understand your interpretation of our policies. However, I'd like to ask you to handle this differently. The user is a newbiew. WP:BITE Why not contact the user and explain yourself in a friendly way? Open it up for some kind of discussion and give them a sense of where you might be flexible on this matter. Thanks muchly, HG | Talk 15:09, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- Greetings. In light of our previous conversation (above), I'm wondering if you'd be willing to look at User:Einsteindonut. The most recent version looked like an attack page (on Wikipedia). I was thinking of bringing this up at AN/I, but perhaps it's more efficient to contact you. Take care, HG | Talk 04:13, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Rollback
[edit]I've taken away your rollback for using it to edit war. John Reaves 17:17, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
- After discussion with John Reaves I've restored the rollback flag, but you need to remember that it is to be used only for reverting vandalism. Rollback says "that edit was so worthless that it doesn't even justify an edit summary in reverting". Please remember that! Stifle (talk) 11:12, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
Thanks so much!

Hi: Have you seen how TERRIBLE the article is? It was actually even WORSE a few days ago. It is an absolute disaster. If you can help please do. I am removing all crap references... finding better ones. There's also NO criticism ANYWHERE in the article. ReelViews is one of the few reviews, and what kind of a critic is ReelViews? Notable? I think not. Please help me fix this disaster.Homely Features (talk) 18:30, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

It's now spreading. I went to Google news to see if I could find any news sources, and that non-reliable website is issuing PR releases to PR sites repeating their claim. We need to make sure that if this does show up on any news sites, that they're using reliable sources, and not repeating the PR release. Little Red Riding Hoodtalk 03:40, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. Can you point me to the foreign-language Wiki that this article appears on? I did a quick bit of searching and was not able to find it. If it does not exist, then it should be tagged with {{notenglish}} and listed at Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English for possible translation and further investigation. Lankiveil (speak to me) 06:27, 17 October 2008 (UTC).
- Hi. I know that it seems to be common practice (and many admins speedy them, incorrectly in my view), but Wikipedia:CSD#A2 specifically states that it's only for "Foreign language articles that exist on another Wikimedia project". I don't speak Arabic unfortunately, so I can't just pop over to arwiki to determine if they already have an article on the topic. Lankiveil (speak to me) 06:39, 17 October 2008 (UTC).
- No worries =). I agree that is frustrating when it happens, but if one of our sister projects can gain a half-decent article from it, then it won't be a total loss. Lankiveil (speak to me) 06:44, 17 October 2008 (UTC).

Royalism
[edit]That's one way of looking at it. But if you look up Merriam-Webster, it simply directs you to the entry on monarchism [1]. American Heritage also agrees [2], as does Oxford [3].

Delete page?
[edit]I’m not sure how this works, however, I had just read about a funny urban legend called Alexandria's Genesis, and I thought that it would be a good idea that wikipedia has a section about it. You want that to be deleted, true it is probably just a myth, but it is an interesting myth, a myth about a super-gene that gives long life and good health. I don’t believe that it is wrong to ad a section to wikipedia explaining the content of that myth. I would very much like you to explain to me why that is wrong to ad. rphb —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rphb (talk • contribs) 23:39, 5 November 2008 (UTC) Then by all means delete it, it probely is to thin, but I jyst wanted to ad and make wikipedia better, not make up junk

Hey
[edit]Hey there. Awesome job with the vandal fighting and new page (NP) patrolling. Just wanted to let you know that if the author of the page removes a speedy tag from the article, you shouldn't use rollback to restore the tag unless that is the only thing that has been changed on the page. If they've modified the text of the article, you should simply readd the tag instead of reverting the edits. Again, great job with the vandal bashing. :) Thingg⊕⊗ 00:57, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Grand Director 001.jpg)
[edit] Thanks for uploading File:Grand Director 001.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:25, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (File:Grand Director 001.jpg)
[edit]You've uploaded File:Grand Director 001.jpg, and indicated that it's used under Wikipedia's rules for non-free images. However, it's not presently used in any articles. Wikipedia policy requires that non-free images be either used or deleted, so if this image isn't used in an article in the next week, it will be deleted.

Hi there. I noticed you were trying to help with this article, but just FYI it's complete vandalism, a substantial copy of another article, Tyler James. On the same topic, do you have any idea how to undo the author's moves of both his user page and his user talk page to those of the article? I tried, but it didn't move the content back to the proper places (his user page and user talk pages). I wasn't sure whether there was a noticeboard for this stuff, either. I noticed you have rollback, so I wasn't sure whether you could possibly fix the mess yourself, or know where to ask for these moves to be undone. Raven1977Talk to meMy edits 23:10, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
Apologies if I'm teaching you to suck eggs, but I saw your comment on the above page to the effect that you didn't know if the user existed or not. That page was created by another user, not Werdo, and has been deleted, but if you want to know if a user exists the easiest way is to search for them at Special:Listusers - that contains the list of all accounts ever registered.

Rollback
[edit]Hi HalfShadow. Would you mind explaing to me why you used rollback here? --Kanonkas : Talk 20:01, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
- That's a good thing. However, I don't want to see such inappropriate use of the rollback tool again. --Kanonkas : Talk 10:59, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
Hey, HalfShadow!
I just wanted to let you know that I didn't mean to land you in hot water over that rollback edit. Dig through my contributions and I'm sure you'll find some rollbacks that shouldn't be there; mistakes happen, no big deal.
I only meant to send a message during the recent ANI report on the editor in question that we need to keep our story straight on what this person is doing wrong. I've been hunting down this guy's sockpuppets for about a year now and I would hate to have an uninvolved and under-informed administrator suspend any further investigation for reason that accusations of any and all wrondoings might constitute harassment. There are editors who are thouroughly frustrated with ABH's behaviour and might say or do anything to get him blocked; I only want to make sure he's blocked for the right reasons -- sockpuppetry. If bringing too much attention to your rollback caused you any inconvenience, I sincerely apologize because my intent was anything but.

Any chance I can talk you into joining the team?
We're getting ever-closer to moving a set of over 200 drafts into the article namespace. (We're trying to jump-start Wikipedia's Outline of knowledge).
It's proved to be a monumental task, but we've been hacking away at it with advanced wiki-tools and brute force (manual) editing.
But we still have a long ways to go (even though we're over half done), and we could use all the help we can get.
The Transhumanist 04:26, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
I'm not really sure if that's my thing.
[edit]I'm more of a gnome: Tidy up what's already there, maybe add a fact or two that isn't already listed. There are only a couple of situations in which I've actually added significant information to an article. Generally my thing is cleaning up what's there and, of course, vandal repair. HalfShadow 17:59, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- So, you like to make lots of little changes here and there? The Transhumanist 19:25, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- More or less, yeah. I also generally tend towards the fictional stuff. I don't think of myself as a poster, more of an editor: I make what's already there read better. Which isn't to say I can't be of help, I'm just not seeing any obvious way I could be. I'm not saying no, though. HalfShadow 22:29, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- Cool. That's what I thought. One major type of WikiGnome activity and page improvement is fixing redlinks. And we've got lots of redlinks. I like to call fixing redlinks "bluelinking". We need as many WikiGnomes as we can get to bluelink these pages. If you are interested, please let me know. (Please don't edit our redlinks! They're standardized. Instead, rename a misnamed page to the title in the redlink, or create a redirect leading to wherever the information is).
- By the way, what method do you use to browse Wikipedia? That is, do you browse conventionally (clicking on one link at a time, waiting for the page to load, and then clicking on another link, etc.), or do you batch-browse (using Linky to load many pages into browser tabs and then using Firefox's tab controls to rapidly switch between tabs to look at the various pages)?
- Just curious. :)
- I look forward to your reply.
- The Transhumanist 22:45, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- I use the conventional method. Unless I'm dealing with vandalism, I feel there's no real hurry, and besides when I do tidy up, it's generally stuff I'm looking at for my own interest, so I like having my full attention on it. I'm not a multi-tasker; slow and steady is good enough for me. I'm currently using Chrome, so I think in theory I could use Linky, but I'm not that sort of editor. Besides, concentrating on multiple things just raises the possibilty of my making a mistake. My way is slower, but I feel I do a more thorough job. HalfShadow 23:04, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
- I wasn't talking about editing. I was talking about browsing (reading). The "by the way" discussion isn't about multi-tasking (I can't read two pages at the same time, can you?). It's about not waiting. Waiting is a waste of time. When you click on a link, you have to wait for the page to load (which can take several seconds per page, and that adds up quick). And during that time your attention isn't on the page, as the page isn't in front of you yet (nothing is). Switching between tabs is almost instantaneous. Page-queueing (loading pages into tabs) with Linky also greatly reduces the need for backtracking, which also saves time. Your computer should wait for you, not the other way around. ;) If you'd like to minimize your microwaits, give Linky a try. I find most people can't appreciate its power until they've actually tried it for awhile. Then they can't live without it. :) The Transhumanist 00:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I misread that. Load speeds really aren't much of an issue with me (I have a cable modem); pages usually load more or less instantaneously. There are times when Wiki 'bogs down' but when that happens it tends to be happening to everyone else, too. I may try Linky out anyway, but I'm not sure it's compatible with Chrome. HalfShadow 00:36, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
- Linky is a Firefox add-on. Opera has a Linky-like feature built-in. Maybe Chrome does too. In my opinion, Linky alone makes Firefox worth switching to. The Transhumanist 01:00, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit]shame on you ... lol. Nope, don't know a thing about the issues (don't 'wanna know). I just followed a link to the sig, thought it was a little .. ahhh ... bold? That's how I came across the comment - sometimes when I get so deep into research and such, I'll run across a comment like that, which just really lightens things up. Just loved the tap dance comment ;-) .. — Ched ~ (yes?) 05:45, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Ooh, I'm gonna smack him...
[edit]That right there, wasn't his fault. The AB should have disappeared when the main one did. I'd blame it on a random glitch. J.delanoygabsadds 23:13, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Watchmen
[edit]I don't know what that story is, but unless it's intended to be a sequel to the film then it doesn't belong in the "Followed by" section. If it's just some DVD feature that will provide an animated look to a portion of the original story that they could not film for the actual movie then that's all it is, and it should be discussed in the article body. Suggesting that it is a sequel of some sort is misleading to a reader if that is not the actual intention of the film makers. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 01:02, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
Rorschach
[edit]Sorry... when was the "If other similar or related articles are removed/added, all must be" level of fairness adopted? I was under the impression that each article gets judged on it's own merits. Other articles can be used as examples of how guidelines are applied or what makes a certain level of article, but they aren't shields or triggers.
As another editor pointed out: Rorschach has a better out-of story (oos) reference material and discussion than the others. Yes, there is an over use of plot in the article, but unlike the others, the plot isn't all that's there. The others only duplicate the plot summary present in the list and the base article, once they collapse back into those, there isn't anything left.
Now, there's the option of putting Rorschach up for an RfC or and AfD to redirect. There's also the option of working on the sections for the other 5 primary characters in the list to provide oos material that needs them to be split back off (and IIRC the editor that did those merges made a similar suggestion).

Redirect reversions
[edit]Hi. Did you know that User:98.180.08.214 has been reverting your redirects to such articles as Eden McCain, Luna Lovegood, and Sirius Black? I don't know what the consensus is, so I though I'd just let you know. Cheers! ~SunDragon34 (talk) 07:08, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
