Google Earth

Props to you man! Good job adding the Google Earth Links!--IGeMiNix (talk) 01:27, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks dude, I was looking at your talk page and it looked like you guys needed some help. Now, I'm trying to finish the addition of the Google Maps Street View Links to the IRT lines. Gfoley4 (press to chat) (what I've done) 01:57, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't know how to add those links so I am just going to keep changing the station pages lol. Anyways thanks again. =)--IGeMiNix (talk) 00:22, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

I thank you as well. Now Google Earth can display correctly, system-wide! Acps110 ^{(talk • contribs)} 00:42, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah but I don't deserve all the credit you and IGeMiNix did a bunch too! Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:45, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Great Job!

		The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
		Having fun with igloo? lol Great job reverting vandalism dude! Keep it up! iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:01, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

LOL! You know it!!! :D Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:02, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol nice nice, can't wait till igloo is finished, since I prefer it more then Huggle.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:24, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I like Igloo more too after only about a half a hour of reverting. lol Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:26, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

What made you to decide using it? =P--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:29, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Idk I was just looking around on Category: Wikipedia counter-vandalism tools and wanted something I didnt have to download. :P Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:33, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, nice nice, igloo is like a hobby for me when I am bored. XD--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 03:21, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

lolGfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 03:23, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, mine has been vandalized 4 times. 8 isn't that bad, too bad it is something you totally look forward to when you are fighting vandalism--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 15:33, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah There been a bunch lately even an admin made one reversion so you couldn't see it. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 15:36, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Jeez bro, anyways your igloo icon on your talk page is off--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 15:42, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I fixed it. :) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 15:46, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

More Conversation

Hey do you have any idea on why Google Maps shows Second Ave as Second Ave - Lower East Side - 2nd Ave?--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 03:32, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Ya I see that too. I have no clue. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 03:39, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Well, Acps filed a report, so I guess we are good with that for awhile. Btw do you have any idea on the current track configuration of Kings Highway on the Brighton Line atm?--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:38, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Wow that page has got to be at the top of the confusion meter but with the help of Bing Maps I hopefully can help. So all southbound trains travel on the southbound express track & exit passengers on an extension of the Northbound platform (the Southbound platform is closed). That extension is over the Northbound express track. Northbound trains travel on the Northbound local track (far east) and exit passengers on the Northbound platform. So really there is 2 tracks and 1 big island platform in service. You might want to ask Acps110 for a better explanation but hopefully I helped Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 04:12, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

So, it is still the same thing then, I would have through they would switch it over since they are done with the southbound rebah now.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 10:51, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

So its just reversed with the northbound platform closed now? Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 12:42, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

I am not sure, since I have really found a reason to go on Brighton, which is why I am asking around lol.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 20:18, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Well and IP has reworded it and apparently the northbound platform is closed now. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 20:29, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, I just saw, its User:The Legendary Ranger is sock as sometimes he likes to edit anonymously.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 20:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

I see. I thought that IP must have an account! lol Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 20:57, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, dude does a lot of the station articles since he knows a lot about them.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 21:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah thats obvious. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 21:02, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Denny Hamlin

Denny Hamlin was not born in Midlothian, Virginia. He was born in Tampa, Florida! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.148.77.25 (talk) 03:32, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Do you have a source for that? The source on the page indicates that his home is at Midlothian, Virginia.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 03:34, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Way to stick it to the man!! Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 03:39, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Australia and new Zealand ettiquette

Please explain how my contributions to wikipedia were wrong in any way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.84.12.175 (talk) 14:57, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay I realized after I made the reversion that is was wrong and that why I didn't revert the second time you put it. I will remove the warning. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 15:01, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. Can you please now explain HOW my wikipedia contributions were wrong.

Your edits are in good faith but are mostly original research and are not sourced. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 15:09, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

I get the no source thing. I am the indigenous Aussie, therefore I am the source. My contributions need to be heard by future travelers of "the lucky country" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.84.12.175 (talk) 15:33, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Sorry thats original research. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 15:40, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Complaints

i think u need to re check ur sources as thish news had appeared on the times of india dated 28th august 2010. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.37.17.99 (talk) 15:52, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Could you provide a link to that story? Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 16:04, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

You deleted my post about Blarney GAA for some reason? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.12.65 (talk) 16:53, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

This is the players name? Steven Fan O Brian. really? Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 17:00, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

What I am doing to Medina's wiki is just freedom of speech and not vandalizing it, I am giving them a good name to catholics so they should be happy —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.23.152.43 (talk) 19:56, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Dude, that's vandalism. (end of story) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 19:58, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Dr. Harvey Silverman page - needed to have delete history hidden

Hi Gfoley4, I'm amazed at how quickly people in Wikipedia respond to updates. I'm trying to blank the page Dr. Harvey Silverman. His original bio page was deleted for being self-promoting, and had some uncomplimentary comments attached in a big red box. When a prospective client found that page, they were a little uncomfortable about working with him, thinking that being deleted from the Wikipedia indicated a lack of credibility. I'm honestly not trying to annoy or mess up the Wikipedia, I'm just trying to eliminate any potential damage to his reputation. And yes, I DID try to convince him not to put up a page, but when he was mentioned in an article about Dental Spas, he thought that gave him enough credibility to put up his own article. So now, I've removed the link that led to his defunct page from the Washington University Alumni page, and also from the Dental Spa page, and hopefully that will keep anyone from stumbling upon it. I tried using that courtesy-blanking template, but it still says that the page was deleted. Is a normal person like me allowed to put up just an Intentionally blank page? I'm sorry to be such a dummy, but this was the first (and LAST) article I've done for a person on Wikipedia. Thank you for your help, Lmitro2010 (talk) 20:08, 3 October 2010 (UTC)lmitro2010

re: your message

Hi Gfoley4, I've left a reply to your message on my talk page -- Marek.69 ^talk 23:21, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Just happy to be noticed

Hi Gfoley, Glad you saw that my contribution, while humorous and probably trivial, wasn't vandalism, haha. I'm definitely glad that someone is paying attention to recent changes. Cheers! Djfgregory (talk) 23:37, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Ya I thought it was vandalism until I looked at the link, pretty funny. =) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 23:39, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism?

Hardly vandalism, as the film has not been met with "universal accliam, it's only in certain parts of the world. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 03 October 20:51 (UTC)

Yes I see that's its not vandalism and glad that's been reworded as it was confusing. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Edit to "Alan Ludden" and "Betty White"

You reverted a single word edit I made to "Betty White" Bio. Allan Ludden, her spouse, did not die of stomach cancer. He died of bladder cancer and I edited accordingly. This is confirmed by an interview given by Betty White to James Lipton on Inside the Actors Studio in September 2010. "How did he die?" "Bladder cancer" was her response. Coming from the widow's mouth, I'm not sure how clear it could be, and cannot fathom why this change from "stomach" to "bladder" is considered "not constructive." Confusing! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.137.150.81 (talk) 03:22, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

I confess I didn't look at the link! I'm no doctor but I truly never heard of someone having bladder cancer until now so you could see why I marked it as vandalism. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 04:18, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

I edited that with valid info such as how there are more then 14 computers now and the technolegy that it states is in use is no longer operational

could you please revert this thanks.

- 8Bitmix —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.138.78.168 (talk) 23:22, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay feel free to add valid info like that but don't add stuff like "Sue is great". Thats why I reverted it. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 23:25, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Lesbian Concentrate

Hellooo ! I removed the things from the talk page because they said it was a "good article", but it isn't any good, and not an official "good article" either as far as I can tell. Thank-you !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nooba booba sooba looba (talk • contribs) 20:54, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

You aren't allowed to blank article talk pages. Also, the links there are for projects it can go on. If you keep removing them, it is going to be considered vandalism.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 20:59, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

True but I think the user is just trying to say that it isn't a good article as the project rating had before. I have fix it. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 21:01, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

I see, the next time the user disagrees with something, he should make a topic in the talk page rather then removing it.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 21:03, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. I'll leave a note on users talk page. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 21:04, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

hmmm

i was trying to tell how to help the environment. Also do you know how to create a page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aiavd55555 (talk • contribs) 22:10, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

The easiest way is to use the Article Wizard but you might want to read this first. If the page you create meets any of this though it WILL be deleted quickly. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:14, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing the warning, it seems Twinkle is acting a bit odd lately for me when it comes to warning. His last edit, on the Environment, even though it isn't warrant for a warning, seems to be an edit for promotion (at least in my eyes) as it does not help the article in any way and I have reverted it. I feel that if he does make an article, we might have to watch his edits to make sure that he isn't trying to promote a going green website. lol --iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:22, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

lol!! Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:24, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh btw dude, don't think you need to sign your talkbacks lol. Most people don't anyways.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:28, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't know about what the "official word" on that is but I thought I better do it before SineBot come along! Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:31, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Maybe they should put it in the talkback, like the auto sign, because when you sign it after, it is on another line and it just looks weird lol.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:33, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Ya I looked at Template: Talkback and found out there was a space to put 5 tildes (timestamp) but if you put 4 tildes only it looks weird too. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:40, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello, Gfoley4. You have new messages at Gfoley4's talk page.
Message added Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:40, 5 October 2010 (UTC). You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

That's cool, the part where it takes up the whole line is rather troublesome.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:42, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes but I doubt we can do anything about it. :( Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:50, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh wells, speaking of talkbacks, I just put a notice on my talkpage about not spamming me with talkbacks since I watch their page lol.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:56, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Some people....:D Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 23:01, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: Just for the fun of it! ;-) (And because you made it that easy.) Acps110 ^{(talk • contribs)} 00:37, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

hmmm, does that count as an award?=) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:39, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Yo that button is like unnoticeable. LOL--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:49, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Ya its hard not to press. =) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:51, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Now we have a reason (see section Jerk) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:03, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

M-19 and the IP

His edit wasn't vandalism, just that he doesn't know the template formatting, and your reversion combined with my fix of the edit made a bigger mess. I've been monitoring and commenting on the IP's edits. Since he started, they're actually being formatted right now with the exception of not using non-breaking spaces. Imzadi 1979 → 00:41, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay (warning reverted) Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 00:45, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Complaint(s)

My revision on the Tiziano Ferro site page was based on an article published on Italy's leading quality newspaper. I cited the source. Maybe you could take a couple of minutes to have a look at sources before threatening to report other people for vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.75.176.53 (talk) 01:06, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Sorry that "source" in another language. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 01:10, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Learning foreign languages is always a good idea. When that's not possible, Google translate might give you an idea about what the source is about. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.75.176.53 (talk) 01:18, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Please try to keep it civil. This could have been all avoid if you used an edit summary. It has been verified by another editor that your source is correct and your edit has been added.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 01:21, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

I was going to say something but IGeMiNix has it under control. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 01:26, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

I think that I have been more than civil! Part of that civility code you are talking about says that it's not OK to bite newcomers. I may not be very good with the technicalities of Wikipedia, but in a matter of seconds I was eaten alive and given 4 warnings for vandalism for a bona fide change. All I'm saying is that it would probably be better to exercise caution when changing stuff other people have worked on, especially when sources are in another language and you cannot/do not want to verify them. No grudges, though. Peace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.75.176.53 (talk) 01:32, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Have a look at WP:CITE and WP:NOTENG. I think you will find them germane to this issue. Thanks! — Spike Toronto 05:22, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Computers

What's up with your regular pc?--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:51, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Actually I normally contribute on a mac laptop and it needed to be taken on a trip with my dad. The other desktop computer in my house has no internet at this time. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 22:58, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

You should get your own laptop. =P--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 23:02, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Technically, Its half mine and half my parents but they hardly ever use it. But, I did have to pay $500 for my half. Gfoley4 | ^{Need to chat?} My track record 23:04, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

That's cool, I have a custom built pc that is 2 years old that I use for gaming and editing during my free time.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 23:20, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Jerk

Oh dear, this seems to be a knee-jerk reaction without properly checking. You obviously did not actually look at the linked article. Well at least you now have a reason for deserving the trout-slap you got above. SpinningSpark 14:58, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

The Trout slap above was a JOKE! Acps110 ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:41, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

A saint?

I don't handle A7s. I make a point of avoiding them because I'm not very good at determining what is and isn't a credible assertion of significance, but even I can tell that an article that claims is subject is a saint is not eligible for A7 by a country mile! Please pay more attention to the articles you tag and perhaps refresh your memory of the criteria. Also, if the only issue is notability, it's generally a good idea to leave it for a while rather than risk biting a newcomer with an almost immediate deletion tagging. Thank you, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 03:39, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

I think I am going to stick to obvious vandalism, hoaxes, copyvio etc. for putting on speedy deletion tags from now on. —Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 19:11, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

23rd Street (IRT Lexington Avenue Line)

Yo, just wondering, what do you mean by it looking bad? Looks fine in my opinion.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 18:27, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Well, at least on my browser the 3 perrow parameter makes the image gallery at the bottom of the infobox creating a big white space that's begging to be changed. If your screen is bigger than mine it might looks okay. I also saw that User: DanTD has tried to make like that in the past. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 18:33, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Ah, I see, yeah I do have a 1080P screen so it does look better. When are you getting your laptop back?--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 18:36, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Hopefully tonight around 8 or 9 ET!! Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 18:38, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

I think Snow Leopard if that's what you mean. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 18:50, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Welcome back to your laptop and I am donez! Yeah! Also I hardly welcome people as I am too lazy to answer questions as you can see by my talk page of archiving things in 2 days.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:14, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

I remember when I was a newbie.... But there are some pretty cool welcome templates. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:17, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

I remember when I almost got blocked because I didn't know the rules. lol and somehow now I am on the other side of it stopping it. But yeah, cool welcome templates but too lazy. =P--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:27, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Re: Blanking the talk page

as mean as it sounds, i didn't mean to welcome them. I'm not active enough to answer their questions, plus, the welcome was inappropriate for an IP. I also wanted to get it off my watchlist. Sorry if I messed things up. Dizzizz (talk) 02:00, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay glad you set things straight. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:05, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. and sorry i missed your warning at the top about answering on my page. Dizzizz (talk) 02:48, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh its's okay I don't really care I just have that up there for the record. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 03:12, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

why are my edits being called vandelism?

My last two edits have been called vandalism, but both of them truthful comments regarding the topics. What constitutes vandalism and how many strikes do you get before you are banned? Chimpflyer (talk) 02:01, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Feel free to read WP: VAND and you get 4 strikes before you are blocked not banned from editing Wikipedia but I'd advise stopping because your account could be considered a vandalism-only account by an admin. Your edits are considered vandalism because they do nothing but state the obvious which is something we don't need on Wikipedia. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:08, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Just out of curiosity, why can you revert my edits? like, what gives you the authority, do you work for wikipedia, and did you just happen to be looking at that page at that time? like how did you see that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chimpflyer (talk • contribs) 02:17, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Concentrate on editing constructively. That way you don't have to worry about your edits being reverted. Tiderolls 02:19, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

(edit conflict) I am a volunteer like everyone on Wikipedia. I didn't just happen to be on the page I was using a vandalism-reverting tool called Igloo which provides an easy way to revert vandalism. That's why at the end of my edit summary there was (GLOO). Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:24, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

my edit for douchebaggery

Although this article is a bit out there, I would think that there is a good reason for it to exist, and that is for those that don't know what it is, as it stands, a kid could search for douchebaggery and come up with douche, which, i believe we all know, are two very different things, you could still contain a link to douche, but most people i think understand there is a clear diffference between the two words. I can only provide minimal information, but I can set up a poll that swould ask people to define a douchebag in terms of the descriptor, not the tool. All derogatory terms should have a page, or be contained on one page that users can navigate to and learn from. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohnoesmyfriends (talk • contribs) 02:32, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

I've been told that this is my final warning, how long do I have before that is refreshed (as in if I were to make an edit that wikipedia calls vandalims by accident,how long do I have before I get more chances?) for example, if this is is my 3rd strike, then when do i get more "strikes"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chimpflyer (talk • contribs)

I've got an idea. How about you just don't vandalize! You get more warnings as soon as you vandalize. ♫Mr. R00t ^Talk♫ 00:31, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

If you don't make some constructive edits (and fast) your account will be deemed a vandalism-only account. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 00:36, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

How do you become a wikipedia volunteer with the authority to do these things? Chimpflyer (talk) 01:40, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)There is no special authority, just additional tools gained by community trust. Since you have an account, you can get started right away. Allmightyduck  What did I do wrong? 01:43, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Stations yo

It is pretty hard to really write stuff for a station since like they aren't really anything amazing unless you into their history which I know nothing of.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:45, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh, are you talking about my edit summary of Stub wanna help? because all I really mean by that more people need to add the stub tags on NYC transportation stations. NYCS is pretty good but LIRR is horrible when it comes to stub tags. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 00:53, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I never really touch the LIRR, I mostly stick with the subways since they are stuff I know.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 00:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah the LIRR is kinda confusing (all those branches!) but I am just on it because I'm adding Street View links and I realize there's a lot of problems. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 01:02, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yo I bet the Metro North stations will be a blast also.=P--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 01:06, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

You know it will and don't forget NJTransit and SIR. :) (That IP is me if you didn't figure that out) Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 01:08, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I might touch those, don't have much knowledge on them though, was wondering why you were editing from your IP.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 01:14, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Sometimes, I am logged out of by account by the computer by accident. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 01:21, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

That's rather odd, I get that time to time on Wikipedia but not lately though.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 01:29, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

It must be random chance. And thanks for the comment on the station in the Bronx (what was it called again... :)) Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 01:32, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

No problem and eh, some random station on the 6, I don't even take the 6 to school.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 01:54, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Whitlock Avenue. Who goes to that stop... Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 01:57, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

You should check out the amazing edit on my page sometime.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:26, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Where? Nothing is jumping out at me on your userpage or talkpage. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:35, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Should have been under the amazing edits but w/e 1--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:36, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

LAUGH OUT LOUD!! I have some too.. User: Gfoley4#Funny things Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:38, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw them before, every once in a while, vandalism has some funny stuff.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:42, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I see a lot of funny edits when I'm using Igloo but it's hard to access the link to the diff when on igloo. If you are bored see more funny edits at User: MC10/Funny stuff Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:47, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Damn! He got me too!--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 02:51, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I forgot about that bar but that's a kinda of a cool idea/joke. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 02:56, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, yeah, nice page, I will check it out when I have more time. Good night dude.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 03:03, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Same to you. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 03:12, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, somebody edited your user page...Not sure if it is vandalism or not.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 11:01, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

It looks like a test edit but they undid it a minute later. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 20:17, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

It seems that the user just wanted some of your layout.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 20:21, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yo, you should check out the status stop Qui system since you always seem to be sleeping. XD--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 20:39, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

That's neat. The only reason I kept my status on sleep is that I'm too lazy to edit that page. :P Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 20:47, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yo the friends status working for you? Just shows a white circle for me.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 21:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

So when you hit Show Qui Friends it shows your friend(s) name and then a white circle to the left? Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:02, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, pretty much not showing any status or time of online--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:05, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Wow, maybe clear cache but I doubt that will help. :( Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:10, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Cleared it again and it worked. Chrome seems to be rather old when it comes to cache on my pc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IGeMiNix (talk • contribs) 17:15, 14 October 2010

Glad to help. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:18, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

There should be a script, that autosigns your messages.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:21, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

That script is disguised as User: SineBot but he doesn't always sign them. Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:24, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, but that's a bot! It should a script like a forum where it autosigns on talk pages.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:27, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah its a good idea but I doubt anyone could (or would) write a script like that. A user might ask,"How hard is it to hit 4 tildes?" Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:36, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Eh, I just push the button.=P--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:37, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

What button, you mean there's an easier way?? Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:39, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

It is like on your toolbar, next to the picture icon, 5th from the bold button. lol, of course pressing the 4 tides is better but I am just too lazy. So sometimes I forgot to push the button.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:41, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Stupid me (I pushed the button!!)--Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:42, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I noticed, because the button comes with the 2 hyphens -- before your sig.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 22:47, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, Yep. (--) Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 22:53, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Stay away from this dude.--iGeMiNix/What's up?/My Stuff 23:54, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

The Wabbit Who Came to Supper

Hi - you removed an edit to the page on the WB cartoon short "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper." I assure you that the addition was absolutely correct - you can verify the existence of the "anomaly" yourself by viewing the complete short online. I am a serious amateur historian/writer on the WB cartoons and while there is a raunchy cast to these inserts by the animators, intentional or not, it is valuable to document them. I would appreciate your undoing the edit. Thanks. 98.255.8.89 (talk) 02:16, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)Hi, it seems your edits are in good faith, however, Wikipedia is not a guide or a textbook. Wikipedia is generally used to provide a general idea of a certain topic, and it is not to serve as an in depth guide for any specific topic. I hope you understand and will keep on contributing on Wikipedia.--iGeM iN ix 03:00, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

You "reverted [my] good edit".

You reverted my good edit. Could you actually check my edit, so that you know that it's ACTUALLY NOT vandalism, or irrelevant? The whole point of album is not irrelevant. Do your job, and stop taking away good edits without reading them. --222.155.24.83 (talk) 03:58, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Wow, thats a actual album? You could see why a RC patroller could see that as vandalism. The album was called Na Na Na Na (Na Na...). Gfoley4 | Wanna chat? 04:01, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, the first single) from the album is called Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na).--222.155.24.83 (talk) 04:04, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Cool thing

Nice find, your user talk one with the yellow is a bit much though. How's my skyblue to you?--iGeM iN ix 02:11, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah pretty cool and I am about to change it to maroon after tinkering with my sig. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 02:13, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Cool, I just did the thing with fitting it into my name lol.--iGeM iN ix 02:16, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

More edits

Awesome, I really like #3. :) Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 14:57, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Reported 4 IP/Users in one session and I get a spam of vandalism. Woo!--iGeM iN ix 15:00, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

When it rains it pours. I'm thinking of asking for my user page to be protected. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 15:03, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't see why they won't protect if it you request it. Most users that request it get it. I am not going yet as I am not a a point where I am getting vandalized a lot. Also, it's fun to see what they write on my page.--iGeM iN ix 15:05, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Me either but there is really no reason to IPs to edit my page. Perhaps I'll ask HJ on his talk page instead of at WP: RFPP. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 15:10, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, there never is, just that it is fun at times. I think the edits on my page would even qualified as being deleted but I don't care lol. --iGeM iN ix 15:14, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Except when they can't vandalize your user page they will vandalize your talk page. :( Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 15:15, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, or they just do both. Always gotta report them to the banhammer police.--iGeM iN ix 15:18, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, Yes we do. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 15:20, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Huggle

Do you want to use Huggle to fight vandalism? Wayne Olajuwon chat 17:28, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes I would like to but on Mac it is very hard to install wine and then get huggle and do a bunch of other stuff. See Wikipedia: Huggle/Wine. But, Igloo is still a very good tool. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 17:33, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay, and sorry for removing your message because I was trying to revert the edit by the vandal. Wayne Olajuwon chat 17:36, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

It's okay. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 17:38, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

LIRR station references

I see that you saw what I was doing with the references for the Long Island Rail Road Stations. That's cool. When I added a reference to Brentwood (LIRR station), though, I left the tag there, because I didn't remember where I saw the map of Thompson's Siding. If you come across one, either let me know, or you can add it yourself if you like. ----DanTD (talk) 23:03, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, most of the stations without references could be easily added from the External Links. I will look out for the reference for Brentwood. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 03:03, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Later

I am gonna retire. See you I dunno eventually.--iGeM iN ix 00:50, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I am sorry to hear that. Later dude. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 01:04, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Eh, decided to go Semi-retired as it seems that there are some pages that aren't being watched.--iGeM iN ix 22:46, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, the En Wiki still has a long way to go. Do think you will want your rights back? Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 22:49, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Nope. I am good. I made the only revert today as I expect it wouldn't be reverted till Acps got on and I didn't want to wait that long lol.--iGeM iN ix 22:51, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay sounds good. See ya around! Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 22:54, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Your Revert of Jose Angel Gonzalez (Fighter)

Just so you know, the edit that you reverted was not vandalism. The blanking of the page was done by the only author of that page and is a reason for speedy deletion, but it was not vandalism. --Slon02 (talk) 01:41, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

I've noticed that you did it again. Please stop. --Slon02 (talk) 01:44, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

The first time you warned me I had already reverted it twice. No need for that second warning. In response to your first comment, you could say that I just should have put the speedy template on the blank page. Yes, but Igloo doesn't have a button for easy speedy deletion. Really there was no harm done as the link should be red soon. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 01:54, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

User talk:Mgrajesh1

Just to clarify: you mentioned to the new editor that I had removed sources on Kashi Math--yes, I had, but by the time you mentioned that to the editor, I had already put them back, almost two hours earlier. Thank you for helping out the new editor. Drmies (talk) 05:40, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Hmmmmm, looks like I didn't see that. Well, happy editing! Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 14:27, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Same to you! Drmies (talk) 17:00, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Subpages

You should get them all protected.--iGeM iN ix 17:31, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Ahh, too much work. WP: RFPP doesn't need all that. Also, vandals aren't really that smart to vandalize my subpages. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 17:38, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

One got your status lol.--iGeM iN ix 17:54, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Grrrr, that's the one subpage I don't really visit a lot since Qui does my satus. Maybe, I'll get that protected. Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 17:56, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol yeah, that's the only subpage that is edited a lot since it auto edits during status changes.--iGeM iN ix 17:58, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

I wonder if it's possible to have an orange bar when someone edits your subpages/user pages... Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 18:01, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Meh, don't think so, since it really isn't a message, just have to keep track of your watchlist I guess. Gonna head out so laterz.--iGeM iN ix 18:02, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay, have a good day ;) Gfoley4 / Wanna chat? 18:03, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

I personally don't care for baseball much but that was such a hilarious fake fake. lulz Such serious business.--iGeM iN ix 01:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol and yeah the guy was like "What did you say to me?!" (lip reading) Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:18, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Sanchez shouldn't have taken it so seriously, he couldn't even finish the 3rd inning.--iGeM iN ix 01:21, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Right oh well... Too bad there wasn't a brawl. :( Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:22, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I know, at least something happened since baseball is so slow anyways.--iGeM iN ix 01:23, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Football on the other hand-much more action. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:25, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, gonna watch some of the games tomorrow, don't care enough to check who's even playing lol.--iGeM iN ix 01:40, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah but hopefully I wake up in time :) Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:42, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, when do you wake up? It seems like to sleep mad late.--iGeM iN ix 02:00, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't sleep that late (maybe 9 o clock (10 ET)). Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:12, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

That's pretty early, I sleep around like Midnight ET lol and wake up around 11. While I only sleep from 12 to 6 on weekdays or less depending.--iGeM iN ix 02:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I go to bed midnight ET no matter if it is the weekend or not. :) Perhaps, I'm doing some late night Iglooing. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:29, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Dude is pretty lucky with all them fouls though.--iGeM iN ix 03:05, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Fouls balls? He actually did well a few games ago though. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:07, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Wow, a nasty backdoor slider to end the game!! Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:39, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Really wanted to look forward to the Philles vs Cliff Lee, but oh wells, Giants or Rangers, very tough choice as I really have no affiliation with either of them.--iGeM iN ix 03:46, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah me too, later dude. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:50, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I thought the kid who smoked pot was on the rangers! lol Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:57, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Ahh, regional coverage-can't see that. But I have to go. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 18:19, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Yo, can you voice your opinion whether the <A> should be a route or not? Thanks. Yeah--iGeM iN ix 02:37, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Want another $0.03 so you can trade in for a nickel? lol.--iGeM iN ix 03:11, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I think you'll get more than a quarter now since I notified everyone on WT: NYCS about this discussion. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:18, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol thanks, if we got a penny for each vandalism we revert, we would be loaded.--iGeM iN ix 03:19, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah so would User: Tide rolls and User: TTTSNB. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:24, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, hanging out at RFA is interesting, getting to know what type of people are trying to be admins on this, lets be honest pretty jacked up wiki environment atm.--iGeM iN ix 22:35, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, 7 RFA's at one time (yesterday) was the largest I've ever seen. But still, admin standards are Very high and it looks like a bunch of RFA's right now will not succeed. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 22:41, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Well Leyo succeeded. Lol, when do you plan to go for the mop--iGeM iN ix 22:45, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I think I need to wait about 6 month-a year before I go for it. I need to get on more discussions (ex. AFD) so users can know my name before I even try to get a mop. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 22:53, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Ah, good luck with that, I will support you if I am still even on lol. I wish the block tool was a separate right as it would be nice to be able to block vandals but of course it is obviously why it isn't as people would just abuse the shit out of it. I will probably never go for the mop just because I just want to have a easy time instead of having to be in many debates.--iGeM iN ix 22:57, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, maybe in a year there will be a better process to elect adminship rather than RFA; just see Wikipedia: Requests for Adminship/The Thing That Should Not Be 2 for an example of hounding that happens at RFA. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:03, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw. Didn't bother to voice my opinion as I hardly interact with him to know.--iGeM iN ix 23:08, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

He's a GREAT vandalism reverter but the community wants more content. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:41, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed. They should just make vandal fighters a separate group with the power to block but not wanting the other tools regular admins hold. I might go back to vandal fighting eventually, although there is really no motivation for me behind it atm.--iGeM iN ix 00:31, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, another good idea. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:35, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

I always found the user groups on Wiki is rather limited, even though I have only started editing this year, I have probably been around stalking since 08. Why can't it be like forums and have Global Mods and Mods for certain parts instead of the complete break off between a nobody and the one with the powers.--iGeM iN ix 00:39, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Admins try to lower that gap between "average users" and high powered admins and 'crats. But, it really hasn't worked. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:43, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

It is never going to, especially with the current standards on Wiki.--iGeM iN ix 00:48, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:52, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

You play them video games? lol--iGeM iN ix 00:53, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

What do you mean by "them video games"? Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:04, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Xbox, PC etc.--iGeM iN ix 00:58, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Some Call Of Duty on friend's Xbox but I don't have one yet. :( Although I do have the money. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:04, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Ah, we should play on 360 some time, even though I am a rather subpar console player, PC I can still hold my own weight.--iGeM iN ix 01:06, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Sounds good-if when I get a 360. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:14, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, lets hope you get one then. Btw Live price goes up next month, such bs to be honest.--iGeM iN ix 01:16, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Good ole recession. :( Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:19, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, it is also amazing what I use Wikipedia for now,a chatting service.--iGeM iN ix 01:22, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Hahah but I need to go (edit them articles). Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:26, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Bot

Looks like the HBC Archive Indexerbot got logged off or something like that. Again.--TalkToMe_c^intelati 00:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I see. Thank you for the explanation. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:21, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Section Break

What an useful opinion. 1 I see why he is under editing restriction.--iGeM iN ix 22:25, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Secret's comment below that says it best. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:08, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

I know, this is why such opposes like those shouldn't be involved, it just shows how much of a jackass he is. Btw you saw last nights Giant game?--iGeM iN ix 23:11, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Please keep it civil and I saw parts of the game. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:16, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Meh not like he is going to see this. Oh man the onside kick in the 4th quarter with Dallas was hilarious, they did 2 trick onside kicks and failed both.--iGeM iN ix 23:17, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh yeah Dallas is a bad team. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:20, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Too bad their Coach is going to go even though the teams are the ones that fucked up way too much. Jets in my opinion are looking good.--iGeM iN ix 23:22, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Yep, Yep. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:28, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
Oversight is still the coolest user group name on Wiki. The highest admin spot should be named Overseer cause it sounds so awesome lol.--iGeM iN ix 00:35, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes but you have to be a member of ArbCom to get Oversight I think. :( Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:38, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, not like I am going to go for it, it just sounds way better then Steward and all them admin groups.--iGeM iN ix 00:41, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

What can they even do? Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:44, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

They can delete shit that only them and researchers can see. WP:OS In other news, Limewire is mad tight.--iGeM iN ix 00:49, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah it sucks, there's also a lot of vandalism on the article. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 00:59, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Always happens when a new event happens to something.--iGeM iN ix 01:08, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

I put in a request at WP: RFPP. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:13, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Hopefully it gets protected. Man, wish I can watch NBA, but don't have cables. *Sigh*--iGeM iN ix 01:17, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Too bad. Well I gotta get go as I have loads of homework. *sigh* Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:20, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol same, I have been doing hw and procrastinating. Laterz.--iGeM iN ix 01:23, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Heads up -

Hi - someone may have told you this before, but just a heads up: you should be waiting more than 2 minutes before tagging articles with A1 or A3, as you did in Prasun Valley. I've heard on multiple occasions, that 5 minutes is a good limit on when you can tag pages with these templates. Cheers! ∙:∙:.:pepper :.:∙:∙ 23:29, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Whoops - I guess I had a itchy finger. Sorry! Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 23:31, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

What did you think of my edit of Chicago?

I'm not from there I'm from Providence, RI, but I thought my edit was funny. What did you think of it?

Please place new messages at the bottom of the page, and I thought it was vandalism. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:37, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

He is pretty tight, as I am not a nice guy, reported him before he got his final warning.--iGeM iN ix 01:44, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

I was going to do it but I saw your report first! Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:46, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, I don't base my reports on just solely warnings, sometimes I just go with my judgement and usually they get blocked. This game is rather close.--iGeM iN ix 01:47, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes there is currently a discussion at the village pump about the use of handing out admin bits such as blocking. Thought you might be interested in this. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 01:53, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

As much as I would like it to happen, it isn't going to happen. Too much trust is needed and most people can't be trusted or can't gain the trust from people. Giants got this again. lol--iGeM iN ix 02:13, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

It's a good idea though. Yep, Giants are gonna win this game and the world series. There I SAID IT! Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat?

Yeah, I don't care about either teams so whatevers. It would be nice to have the status of patroller, but it isn't going to happen. There isn't even an easy way to desysop people, imagine the types of problem when you give people with these rights and can't easily remove them.--iGeM iN ix 02:23, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, again its a good idea but there's not going to be community support for it as there are too many gray areas. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:33, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

If that idea gets approved, I am going to go for the TIGHT Block Template.--iGeM iN ix 02:35, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Why not make a subpage? lol Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:38, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Lol, I dunno, seems I am getting some action tonight. IPs are so tight.--iGeM iN ix 02:41, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

I see a pack of them got your talk page. lol Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:46, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

They all seem to know each other. So it isn't really sockpuppetry per say, more of meatpupperty. Too bored before Halloween it seems.--iGeM iN ix 02:48, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

See Wikipedia: Sockpuppet Investigations/All-IP adresses for more info. lol Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 02:52, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Meh all of them blocked. So we are good. But yeah, Woo internet warriors in the house! Give it up for them and their tightness! Texas are so tight.--iGeM iN ix 02:54, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

But, some Ips are good. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:01, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh yeah, like The Legendary Ranger's IP, the bad outweigh the good though. MAN WHAT A BEAT DOWN DUDE 9-0!--iGeM iN ix 03:03, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

All with 2 OUTS!! Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:05, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, the IPs on my page are also getting a beatdown!--iGeM iN ix 03:05, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh yes, I saw. Maybe, I'll get on Igloo cause if your talk page is the meter for vandalism, it's on level 1!! But, it'll be hard to tear me away from NJ Transit!! (not) Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:08, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks though, J protected my talk page. So I think I am going to keep it that way as I am no longer a vandal fighter anyways.--iGeM iN ix 03:11, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Looks like my internet connection is too slow for igloo now :( guess i'll stay to GSV. Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:20, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

GSV? Anyways what a beat down, good night bro.--iGeM iN ix 03:23, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Google Street View and I have no school tomorrow so stayin up all night. (parent-teacher conferences) Gfoley 4 / Wanna chat? 03:26, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Man you lucky, I have a half day with 3 periods but I am going to probably just leave after the 2nd one.--iGeM iN ix 12:00, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

ACC confirmation

I confirm that that I am "coolcat44" on the ACC interface. *Descriptive edit summary* — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 01:21, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the recommendation of Twinkle!! Soooo much easier!! Is there a way to add "New Pages" to the interactions section on the skin? I add it with CologneBlue, but that skin does not seem to work with Twinkle. jsfouche (talk) 06:03, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I think Twinkle only works with Monobook and Vector. There is a a source that you can use and "new pages" will be a the top by your watchlist, contribs etc. I know it works on vector but I don't think so on ColongeBlue. If you want it, copy this source to Special: Mypage/skin.js

addOnloadHook(function () {
addPortletLink( "p-personal", 
 wgServer + wgScriptPath + "/index.php?title=Special:NewPages",
 "new pages", "pt-newpages", "Link to newpage list",
 "z", document.getElementById("pt-logout"));
});

(dont add the source tags) — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:10, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Happyz Halloweenz

Happyz Halloweenz dudes, Giants should win tomorrow.--iGeM iN ix 06:06, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Not if Cliff Lee pitches. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:12, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Did they say they were going to bring him out? Because I heard the Rangers said if they win the first home game, they will let him rest since Cliff Lee likes long rest.--iGeM iN ix 15:21, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Well, I thought they might since it's really a must-win for them. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:23, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Nah, in yesterday's game, they said if they lost the first home game, they might approach him with the idea of him pitching on short rest but since they won last night, they will probably let him pitch when they go back to SF.--iGeM iN ix 15:25, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

What about tomorrow's game in Texas? — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:26, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

They playing three games in Texas? Well I guess he will pitch tomorrow then.--iGeM iN ix 15:27, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Good ole 2-3-2. lol — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:28, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

I never really get why they do 2-3-2, why not just make it 2-2-2, but I guess it just lets them fly around less.--iGeM iN ix 15:30, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Cause then they would have to do 2-2-2-1 with a 7 game series. Most playoffs do it with 2-3-2. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:32, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

I see, well whatevers, football is gonna be on soon.--iGeM iN ix 15:36, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

I think the Bears have a bye week so I don't know what I'll watch. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:41, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

I am gonna watch the Jets game, don't know about the rest at the moment.--iGeM iN ix 15:44, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps, I'll watch Colts. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:48, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Who they playing today? Dallas?--iGeM iN ix 15:49, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Houston I think. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 15:53, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Ah, what time is it at?--iGeM iN ix 15:54, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

BTW, did a minor change on your userpage as I am semi-retired, feel free to change it I dunno some random stuff if you don't like it. Like, this dude is somewhat retired but is still bored enough to on or something.--iGeM iN ix 15:58, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

That's fine but the Colts-Texans game is tomorrow not today, whoops. — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 16:00, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Blah, don't have ESPN to watch it.--iGeM iN ix 16:05, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Too bad :( — Gfoley 4 Wanna chat? 16:09, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!--iGeM iN ix 20:07, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
