OhanaUnited's RfA
editThanks for voting at my RfA. Unfortunately, the result stands at 51 support, 21 oppose and 7 neutral which means that I did not succeed. As many expressed their appreciation of my works in featured portals during my RfA, I will fill up the vacuum position of director in featured portal candidates to maintain the standards of featured contents in addition to my active role in Good articles. Have a great day. OhanaUnitedTalk page 04:22, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Sharking the clown
editThanks for your email, responded and it's done! Now we watch.. Dreadstar † 20:49, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
I've responded, sorry to take a while but I've been rather swamped! Seraphimblade Talk to me 07:52, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
my rfa
edit...thank you for your participation. I withdrew with 83 supports, 42 opposes, and 8 neutrals. Your kind words and constructive criticism are very much appreciated. I look forward to using the knowledge I have accrued through the process to better the project. I would like to give special thanks to Tim Vickers and Wikidudeman for their co-nominations.
Rangeblocks exp
editOh, is that what it was...sheesh, I was wondering! So, should I just leave the article protected for a while or what do you think? Dreadstar † —Preceding comment was added at 00:28, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
- Well, one minor vandalism after unprotect...oh what fun this is..;) Dreadstar † 00:48, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
- It's amazing to watch the hate and anger poured upon this clown. Dreadstar † 01:02, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
- LoL, look who's calling anyone "simpleminded": [1]. Dreadstar † 01:07, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
- I went ahead and reprotected it. Maybe a checkuser on these id's is warranted. If it weren't for the potential of children to see that vile crap that spews forth from that creep, I'd just hunt him down till his "ip machine" blew into small pieces..but, man that's some awful, dark stuff....

The Pee Wee Herman vandal
editLooking at your list, you've got all the ones I know of, and more. I am sure there will be more, and I'll keep an eye out. Thanks, Rjd0060 (talk) 23:41, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- We've got a new one: User:Phermannronald. I've added him to your checkuser request and your subpage. GlassCobra 19:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Sure thing. He can generate as many IPs as he wants, we'll block 'em all. :) GlassCobra 20:35, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank you
editThanks for your quick action against 216.243.104.218. Pyrofork (talk) 23:21, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Just letting you know, User:ElKevbo has claimed that the situation isn't resolved. Funeral 22:10, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Block on User:Codegeass001
editWhy did you block for 24 hours only? I took a look at his edits and I'd say it was a vandalism-only account... Tabercil (talk) 00:24, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Okay... I can see your point. Don't know if your attempts to convert the heathen will be successful though... hopefully you won't end up suffering the same fate as these or these folks. :) Tabercil (talk) 00:39, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
Question
editI would like your opinion on whether or not I have enough evidence to request a check user for User:Navnløs and User:Deathbringer from the Sky. I have collected a bunch of diffs here: User:Scarian/Sandbox for your consideration. Appreciate any feedback, friend. Have a good day. ScarianTalk 11:36, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
You should specify if new reports go at the top, or bottom of the page. I thought they went at the top, but I notice the newest one was added to the bottom. - Rjd0060 (talk) 22:09, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi, could you restore this to my user space? Thanks, Tlogmer ( talk / contributions ) 05:27, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
Hey Tigershark, the previous time we met was when you always deleted my link of the tiger-page. I can now announce you that the site is completely changed with lots of new information. So now i am going to ask it first: May my link now come on the tiger page? Thanks Big_smile_21

London Meetup - January 12, 2008
editHi! There's going to be a London Wikipedia Meetup coming Saturday January 12, 2008. If you are interested in coming along take part in the discussion over at Wikipedia:Meetup/London7. The discussion is going on until tomorrow evening and the official location and time will be published at the same page late Thursday or early Friday. Hope to see you Saturday, Poeloq (talk) 02:30, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Tower running, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 23:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Whoa. Not the kind of mistake you want to be making early on in your admin career. It was simply a mistake of time keeping. Switching between UTC and my time zone, and then for some reason "17:16" looked like "17:36".... Long story short, user has been unblocked. Thanks for letting me know! J-ſtanContribsUser page 22:28, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
- One week ago today! I think I'm doing pretty well. I didn't think I'd be able to handle it at first, but I'm hitting my stride. I hope to be doing it for a while. Thanks, and happy editing. J-ſtanContribsUser page 23:03, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Please reconsider the block of User:Manacpowers
editI have watched their tit-for tat edit warrings and tried to meditate between the user and User:RogueNinja on the Song Duk Ki article.(unsuccessful) Both were banned for 3RR violation the day before yesterday, and I think User:RogueNinja started the war for his revenge. In my opinion, the block duration is a bit harsh to the newbie and is not fair because the two editors both violated 3RR and incivility together again. --Appletrees (talk) 22:50, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for looking into the issue and for your comment. As it is clear that the reported user reverted his own edit to avoid a block or at least make it less severe, I would appreciate it if you took a closer look at his edits from now on. Frankly, I'd gladly have somebody else take over the case of the discussed references, so if you feel like doing it, you're more than welcome to do so. cheers Pundit|utter 00:26, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, I left a comment regarding your decision at the 3RR noticeboard, please review it. Thank you, - PeaceNT (talk) 04:10, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Block
editHi, I see what you mean although in the user's contributions Special:Contributions/70.129.33.16, it shows two edits to jellyfish at the same time the final warning was given so I don't really know if the warning was given between that minute or after. However, this user has made five edits over several minutes so it would be safe to say that he/she might vandalize again. Anyway, the block is for 12 hours and if there is a problem, the IP would probably post an unblock. Thanks again for your concerns. --Hdt83 Chat 23:36, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
- IP has been unblocked, will keep an eye on it. --Hdt83 Chat 23:42, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Can you explain your no consensus, I'm so tempted to DRV to overturn the result of this, as sources was a concern that wasn't properly met in the AFD. Secret account 22:19, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/War of Empires
editWith regard to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/War of Empires, since you didn't offer more than a result in your slosing, can I have some assurance that the discussion that was inappropriately moved to the Talk was included in your deliberations? I would also ask that you take a look at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive360#Hu12 and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/War of Empires. I am concerned that the obfuscation of the effort to find sources, whether unintentional as claimed or not, had a chilling effect upon the debate. -- RoninBK T C 09:15, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- I appreciate your response, and based upon what you told me, I will not be pursuing a deletion review. For the record, I agree with the eventual result, I was pushing for a WP:HEY improvement that the article's authors did not do. -- RoninBK T C 09:38, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Possible edit war
editHi, could you please take a look at the Cat article, seems to be a bit of an edit war going on over which photo to use in the infobox. Mjroots (talk) 18:32, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
- On the suggestion of another admin, I've put in an Article RFC on this issue, and notified both editors of this. Mjroots (talk) 21:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Did you even read the diffs?
editYour decision here was wrong. The discussion, supported by an admin that despises me, [User:B], indicates that you need to review this again. It was a total violation of 3RR, and I wonder how many times you've made this mistake. Now I've got to spend time reviewing your decisions to see if this is an indication of a level of competence or you just messed up this once. And no, I don't give good faith, I've watched too many dumb mistakes by admins. OrangeMarlin Talk• Contributions 00:20, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
ASEOR2
editDoes this: http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Ancient_Israel&action=history count as a disruptive edit? Slrubenstein | Talk 23:28, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Per your decision regarding ASEOR2 (talk · contribs), I did a quick check of his talk page blankings and discovered that he has actually been issues a 3RR warning already. I added the diff to the 3RR report under your decision. --Veritas (talk) 23:29, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
By the way, TigerShark, ASEOR2 gets all the content he has been adding from this source. He is simply on a POV-pushing campaign to put the unfounded theories from this video into articles. There is nothing else going on here. Chech the history of his talk page: he has been warned repeatedly, he just blanks his talk page. Slrubenstein | Talk 23:32, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- He has become a sock, User:VouzRendez http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Special:Contributions/VouzRendez Hardyplants (talk) 00:07, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Should these accounts be banned, or blocked for a longer period of time, for sock-puppetry? I need to go off-line and just saw the VousRendez stuff ... can someone block this account as a sock for a blocked user? Slrubenstein | Talk 10:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your attention on this, Slrubenstein | Talk 19:01, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
