Wikipedia:Editor review/Tohru Honda13

Just started. I want an honest opinion! Hey Arjun, I gotta tell you this: I've adopted Froglet42! I'm glad to have adopted. Cheers! (can I start saying that?) --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 00:55, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Cool, congrats. Yay! The weekends are here :). Okay sure I will give you the famous Arjun's Royal Review^tm. Cheers! Arjun 00:57, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Done! I'm ashamed I never have much to say... but better little than nothing right? (?) --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 01:08, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Boy that was the best review I've ever gotten. Yeah, whenever I say "Revert Stupidity" it's usually when I'm in a pissed off or depressed pr touchy mood. I try my best to keep my personal feelings away from Wikipedia. It leaks sometimes. :'( Tell me when Husond nominates you, I'd probably forget and miss out on it. I've even shortened by sig a little bit :] How it is it?

--Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 01:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Kath fancruft

I will try and dig up a proper ref for that. In the meantime maybe you can create a "To Be Referenced" list on the article talk [page and start moving the unreferenced player over to it. Thats what we did with the Tele list. Then we just started adding back to the main list each time we found a ref. If the IP gets out of hand we'll have to get the article Semi_P'd Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 03:35, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Great idea, and for the ones that are impossible to reference or just plain incorrect can just stay off the list. I will do that now. Arjun 03:38, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

The List of Telecaster players is being attacked now. Know any admins who are awake and ready to "Serve and Protect" Wikipedia? Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 04:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

I have contacted User:Husond he is a great admin and Is online...I think. We will just have to see where it goes from here. Arjun 04:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

He may read my comments to Admin Spangineer on his talk page if he wants background history on "The struggle". Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 04:10, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Re. Somewhat of an emergency

Sorry Arjun, but I will have to decline your request on both articles. The current level of activity does not justify semi-protection (a request on WP:RPP would most likely be declined as well). Just keep reverting this IP while warning them against their misbehavior. If they refuse to cooperate, report them to WP:AIV or to me to have them blocked. If multiple IPs keep damaging the articles several times a day, then I can semi-protect. Sorry. :-/ Regards,--Hús ö nd 04:13, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Ack, I forgot that it takes multiple IPs to do a sprotect. The user has stopped for now. Arjun 04:15, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

List of Telecaster players has just been semi-protected by Spangineer. If the other one keeps being disrupted by multiple users then please report again and I'll have it semi-protected as well. Regards,--Hús ö nd 04:34, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

That is great, thanks for being cooperative and keeping in touch. I doubt the range will edit any more articles soon as Kath, Tele, Strat are sprotected. Cheers and thanks again. Arjun 04:36, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

A question on the cite.

See the talk page for the list of Stratocaster players, under the unreferenced lists. Could you help answer it? Thanks for the help, and I'm surfing the 'net for cites. Harder than I thought! @_@ --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 04:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

What are we going to DO about that IP? I think he just violated 3RR. It's starting to piss me off, excuse the language and incivility. I even placed a last warning there! Should we report him to WP:AIV? Grr. --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 04:25, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Chill out don't let this IP get under your skin. Yes as Anger said he/she has been acting very displeasing and over all stressful. I have reported at the Aiv. And notified Husond too. Cheersy. Arjun 04:27, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

I FOUND IT! please see this! I think it's a fansite, but it has a great list of all his guitars used! If it's all right, may i add him back with image and ref? Thanks Arjun! Hey, let's throw a party... List of Strat players is semi-protected!!!^right? --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 04:39, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

wait a sec as I will ask anger22~~Yep that is good enough as far as I know~~, but really it is actually a bad thing that the list had to be proteced as it takes away the "...that anyone can edit", from the article. All because of a disruptive IP range. Cheers! Arjun 04:42, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

I am actually not a big fan of "gear lists" as citations. It proves that they own one. But it doesn't really convey that their ownership and history of use is "notable" Does that make any sense? If you look at the Tele list, each entry has a little "verse" beside the name(usually paraphrased directly from the ref) to show that they not only play the Tele....but they are noted for doing so (either by their skill/reputation....or their sheer longevity using the model) Gear lists are a good "second ref" but that particular fansite doesn't indicate where their own info os sourced from so it doesn't measure up to WP:V to well. Make sense? Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 04:58, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes sir, that is why I stopped in the first place. I wanted to get some advice from our "senior citizens" :) Arjun 05:00, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Easy now ya young skalawag....I'm not a senior just yet. Although I have a few more grey hairs this evening :D . Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 05:02, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

(3 edit conflicts)I salute ye, o honorable veteran guitarist. :) Thanks, really. --Tohru Honda13^{Sign me!} 05:04, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

No sweat, thank Anger as I was on the wall leaning to no. But back to work :D. Arjun 05:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

re:admin....not today Arjun...not today. I watched a good "wiki-friend", and one of the best editors I had ever seen here....cave and fall under the weight of the "toolbox". I am content doing what I do. And, when trouble brews, there's lot's of great admins like Spang' and Husond and Can't Sleep Clown Clown Will Eat Me that we can call on for help. Thank you for the thought...I am humbled. But I am fine just as I am. Cheers and have a good night! Time to put these aging bones to bed. Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 05:10, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

cries* Okay, I completely understand administration can get to ya, and is very hard. Arjun 05:11, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Soul!

May be we need some soul searching :P --Dwaipayan (talk) 05:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Replied on the WP:INB. Arjun 05:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Re: Leaving

Well Arjun, thanks for your concern. The thing is that I have my boards coming up, and I have to study for them. Therefore I will be taking an extended wikibreak till the end of March. However, I'm sure I will drop in from time to time. And I will definitely not be permanently leaving Wikipedia. Cheers! --May the Force be with you! Shr e shth91 18:57, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Cool, glad to hear...good luck! Arjun 18:59, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Citing

It worked! You're a genius! Uh, I've got another question: Could you check out the cite I used for Bonnie Raitt? It didn't have the info about the last sentence that was there, so I put the cite after the sentence before it. Thanks, and good job! Ah yes, I put the cite you used for John Frusciante on the List of Gibson players as well; John also had a Gibson (which was on the website). How do you like the new sig? Shorter? --Tohru Honda13^{Talk•Sign here} 19:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Erm...I am on the wall again. While it is good it doesn't reference that "she was the first women to have a signature strat". Aslo the sig looks much better, thanks for shorting it :) Arjun 19:35, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

No need to worry, I just found one. Keep up the great work :) Arjun 19:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

FP peer review

I have a question about despeckling an existing FP over at peer review- can you give it a look? I know peer review is an awfully low-profile page. --⁪froth^T 10:55, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Ack I compleatly missed this, I will give it a look over soon. Arjun 21:02, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hinduism portal (Reply)

I would like to hear your thoughts on the Hinduism portal, please share your thoughts here. Thanks, Cheers! Arjun 17:08, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I have put some thoughts on the portal's peer review. Happy editing! —S .D. ¿п? 17:38, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Editor Review Backlog

Hello. You're probably aware of the backlog at WP:ER. You give very good reviews, perhaps you would consider going in and clearing it? There's only like five people to be reviewed, myself included. Dooms Day349 20:32, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Sure, I have already done you. I will do some more when I have more time. Cheers! Arjun 21:01, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks mate! Great review. I'm still a bit nervous about getting into RFAs, but maybe I'll hop at it. And I am trying to improve the whole arguing with everyone who ever disagrees with me kinda mentality. I'm trying to back down and adopt a relaxed style of discussion, it just gets hard sometimes as I have a somewhat stubborn nature :).

Thanks! Dooms Day349 21:04, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

No prob, I am glad I can be of help :). Yeah we all have to watch our stubbornness. Cheers Arjun 22:06, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello, Arjun! I would honored if you could add your Royal Review to my editor review. Thanks and happy editing! —S .D. ¿п? 22:14, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Sure, I will add my royal review to your ER. I am doing it now. Arjun 22:19, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for the R.R.^TM! Again, since I have only been for less than 3 months, I won't attempt a RfA now. I haven't done R.C.P., recently, but I have warned users ^{(Examples: 1 2, and 3)}. I will try popups soon. I hope to be contributing in the coming months. Happy editing! —S .D. ¿п? 23:05, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh I see, well just keep it up. Cheers! Arjun 23:06, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey Arjun, I've been participating in the WP:FPCs. It's fun, and there's lots of pretty pictures! Speaking of... where's your subpage for your images? Can't find'em...--Tohru Honda13^{Talk•Sign here} 23:17, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I have removed them for now since they are terrible :p. Well actually I didn't need to double the same thing as if you go to my account on Wikimedia commons I have a gallery there. Cheers! Arjun 23:19, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Lance Bass

Would you explain how my edit was nonsense? I changed "Lance" to "Bass" per MoS conventions and I clarified that he dated her despite his assertion that he is gay to remove any confusion that people might have; as it stood it looked out of place and people might write it off as erroneous. Since you left me a sterile old template, I have no idea what part of my edit you didn't like. 76.178.95.219 23:25, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Calm down, I revert a lot of vandalism, I am sure to make a mistake, I am only humon :). Sorry about that, Arjun 23:37, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello! Thanks for the welcome, I anticipate in helping out in any way I personally can. Cheers! Arjun 01:41, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Re. Hi Husond

It is not. I just felt like maybe I was too fast in supporting him before making a careful investigation of his progresses. Thus, I had to drop a few bombs to make sure it's safe ground. :-) Cheers,--Hús ö nd 03:28, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh, he hee, very well then. I obviously opposed per time since last RFA. I doubt I may change but if the answers are top notch then I "might" change. Cheers! Arjun 03:30, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

BTW, question 4 specifically came because I had to remove/decline one of his requests to WP:AIV a couple of days ago. Or was it yesterday? I can't really recall when or what article. He's been doing a good job though, just wanted to make sure he's ready for adminship. When's your RFA coming anyway? Oh, and yeah I also think that he could've waited a lil bit longer, but usually I don't oppose solely on the grounds of haste.--Hús ö nd 03:33, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I just spoke to Nish on IRC to get a second opinion and he advises February. So maybe you should wait a couple more weeks, even though I believe that you would have a lot of support even at the moment. Regards,--Hús ö nd 03:43, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay, February it is then. Also this should help out as I have a List and Portal that I have been working on that I think can survive and become featured. Cheers! Arjun 03:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Vandal User talk:199.185.87.202

Just wanted to let you know that after your reverting of vandalism by this user on the kimchi article and your warning on his talk page, he reverted your edits and repeated his vandalism. Another editor fixed the vandalism but please block this guy from continuing these abuses. Thank you.Melonbarmonster 08:02, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Review Please (Reply)

Now that I have reviewed you, now it is time to review me :). Cheers! Arjun 23:14, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I have given you a Rite Review. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? ;) Happy editing! —S .D. ¿п? 13:34, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Hinduism portal

I think it's almost there. I'll try to polish some things up today, if I get the chance. Nishkid 64 15:53, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Another one for your watchlist

A new user (who's editing as both a logged user and an anon IP) is persistently adding his own personal editorial into the Gibson Les Paul article. It's a clear WP:NOR vio which I've quoted several times in to edit summary...but he keeps adding it back anyways. The article already has too much original research it doesn't need anymore. Could you add that article to your watchlist and rm any OR that gets regurg'd into it. Thanks! Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 18:32, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

PS, also add Gibson Guitar Corporation to your list...another target. Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 18:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks, Arjun! By the way, I don't know if Husond told you this, but I said I'd nominate you for adminship in February (I think he said he wanted to do it soon). I told him it was because you had a recent name change and a lot of people don't know who you are yet (like me lol). Nishkid 64 20:59, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay! Yeah the name change kind of threw some people off, Cheers! Arjun 21:01, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

TeckWiz's RFA

TeckWiz's RFA

I would like to thank you for helping the Wikipedia community determine if I should become a sysop by voting oppose on my second RFA. I withdrew per WP:SNOW, as consensus to promote was against me. I will continue to improve until one day, I become an admin. Happy editing! --TeckWiz^Talk Contribs_@ 21:42, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

User:Mkdw

Hey Arjun, I noticed you reviewed a couple people on the Wikipedia:Editor Review and I was hoping you'd be able to look over my review. I am eager for some feedback and I noticed your reviews are extensive and comprehensive. I also like your userpage, do you mind if I look at some of the coding and use it on my own page? Mkdw ^talk 02:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for you generous comments, I will remember them in my future work. Mkdw ^talk 04:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Thankies!

Normally, pink is my hated color. I just thought it would look nice, with February coming up. I'll be changing colors every month. I'm a bit iffy about the color of the show-and-hide tables; it looks like too deep a pink, and I know blue goes good with pink, it's just that it's too dark. Eh, I'll work on that later. On a side note, are you proud of your created article? Before I started adding cites, there were only 9 of them. Now I see about 40. It's on its way to Featured status! :) Also, do you mind putting my userpage on your watchlist? I plan on working on the Spanish Wikipedia. Of course, I'll still be here, but in the case I'm not here to revert vandalism on my userpage, will you help? Thanks Arjun, and uh, Cheers! :P --Tohru Honda13^{Talk•Sign here} 05:54, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I am so proud of the article, your help is excelent! It would not be half as good if you weren't helping :). You deserve a barnstar too =). Oh and sure I will put your page on my watchlist. Cheers! Arjun 14:37, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
