WWII Online
editWe seem to have a common interest in World War II Online. I'm a fellow Allied player (Lt. BEF, mostly armor). Though right now I do not play (hardly any time, demanding class schedule), I still keep up with news and beta info through the forums. I suggest that we start working on this as a collaboration, so that we can get more done. If you know of anyone else in the WWIIOL community who knows Wikipedia well (preferably an Axis player), please invite them to join in. We could really use some new, high quality, non-CRS screenshots! Thanks in advance, and good luck.
If you ever need to contact me via MSN, my address is jtd4753@comcast.net. Look for the name USMA2010. (USMA2010 18:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC))
World In Conflict

World in Conflict plot
editthe final plot that i released, was not copyrighted. i actually did that all in my head after finishing the game. So there. BTW you may think people are destroying or doing something wrong to the article, i'm actually helping. and none of that was copyright protected. I may say that the first might have been but the last one was definately not. i spent ages thinking that up. you took it apart in a few mins. i think we should hold a debate on the discussion page of the article. (Kliu1 00:10, 28 September 2007 (UTC))
I went ahead and made some changes to the article that I think are a reasonable compromise. I added a section on the forums (including a screen shot of a developer post re: damage model testing) and then grouped all the images showing testing of the damage model since that seems to be the only work around to the fact that CRS allows only paying subscribers to access specific links. I also added some more material (with reference) and tried to clean some of it up. It's still a mess but at this point I'm not going to butt heads with someone who doesn't understand what goes into making a good article. Thanks for taking the time to contribute.

Virginia class submarine external link revert
editFYI, I consider ANY unwanted changes to the userspace with my name (since I can't say "my userspace") to be vandalism. Vandlism is against WIkipedia POLICY - it's not a guideline, so how did I bereka my own rules?? Idiot. I know we didn't start off on the right foot today, but I did aplogize for it. Yet you insisted on redacting my userspace, like I was a common vandal, wtihout even the courtesy to appraoch me first liek a real adult would. If the wiki-break notice is a personal attack on my paer, then I'm sorry your feelings were hurt. I've had it today with people protecting the real vandals and abusers, then going after me like I'm worse than the vandals. Well, I've had it with idoits like you. And you really are stupid for nominating the largest airlines list. THere, now THAT was a REAL personal attack. GO get me blocked if you wish, but I'm gone from WIkipedia anyway. THought I may come back as an IP, since they get more respect than regular users from the likes of morons like you! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.4.227.155 (talk) 22:17, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, Warthog32. I've never met you. I got the same notice. What is that about? I don't remember changing anyone's user page. Archtransit (talk) 22:32, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Beats me, I certainly didn't vandalize anyone's user page -- and since this is an unregistered IP address, there's probably not much of a talk page to vandalize. Actually, if you go to the revision history of the guy's talk page you won't find any edits from me there. Warthog32 (talk) 23:24, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, his edit is itself vandalism - he just trashed some text that was in this subsection. Fortunately, that discussion was pretty much complete. But I guess its just some guy that likes to vandalize user pages with some sort of personal attack. Warthog32 (talk) 23:27, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:Hurricanewwiol.jpg)
editThanks for uploading File:Hurricanewwiol.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) 05:07, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
World War II Online Dispute
editSeeing your past contributions to the World War II Online page, there is currently a dispute centered around the critisism section that could use your attention. 24.114.255.83 (talk) 21:58, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
Core policies
editI suggest you have a look at the following policies:
These policies explain that Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Contrary to your comments, requiring material complies with these policies isn't wikilawyering. PhilKnight (talk) 18:00, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
Automatic IP blocked by range
editPlease unblock my IP address 74.208.43.213. I believe that there is a very broad IP address range block in affect that is overly inclusive, and happens to block my own personal IP address of 74.208.43.213. I always access through this one static IP, so, if possible, please leave the block on the whole IP range 74.208.0.0, but unblock my one address (74.208.43.213).
Thanks! Warthog32 (talk) 22:05, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Unfortunately such an unblock is not possible; what I can do, however, is grant you IP-block exemption, which permits you to ignore autoblocks. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 00:18, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Great, that works too, thanks! Warthog32 (talk) 02:50, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- This IP has been blocked since March. But you've been able to edit just fine until now. What's the story? If this IP is an open proxy, you shouldn't be using it to edit. Mangojuicetalk 05:03, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- I sometimes edit from home (different IP) and sometimes from work (the blocked IP). I've never been able to edit from the blocked IP since the ban was put in place. Warthog32 (talk) 16:36, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Ironically, this is actually a nice feature now. If I start editing while not logged in, I get a nice reminder since the IP address is blocked, but my account is exempt. I almost wish I requested an IP address autoblock in the past!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Please see my post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject JavaScript#Nested RegExp.
