I cant put this on my page, so I thought you might enjoy it...Its a barnstar awrd.pickelbarrel 23:27, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I award this Barnstar to Pickelbarrel for his/her "taint (slang)" edit and edit summary.

Since you have successfully remade Panty Waste into a wonderful article it would seem a barnstar is in order :-)

Also I found out that somebody else should give me this award, but I like it a whole lot, so I was wondering if you could give it back to me...Im triing to get my entire page covered with awards, but if I give this one to myself, it is misleading, but I think it will be okay if YOU give it to me...thankspickelbarrel 23:53, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Taint

I Thought I should probably give this one to you as well, as you helped out on the Panty Waste article as well

I know you mean only the best, but it's not generally considered polite to edit other people's comments on AFD or anywhere else, as you did here. I don't think in this case that it's a big deal, just wanted to make sure you knew. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 10:22, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I totally understand what you mean, man. But sometimes you just have to just deal with it, I'm afraid. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 10:29, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thing is that discussion is about the current article, it was moved to Taint (slang), keeping the revision history of the original page. Thanks/wangi 18:32, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

impotant info of your "friend" dan.

Hola caneastrad I'm one of the guys who helped you win the "taint" debate, and I remebered that you had an encounter with a fellow that accused you of sockpuppetry. It has been my experience that MOST of the people who look under the bed have hidden ther themselves, and I have afeeling that is exactly what dan is doing now with a user by the name of pamento. This King of all Jerks has been vandalizing Administrator UncleG's webpage for quite some time and taunting me as well. I have kept my cool though most of it, but it occused to me that there might be some other motive he has for going after me, and all of a sudden this DAN guy comes along and is his best friend. Sounds pretty suspicous huh. ANYWAY you can read what Pamento wrote here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Pickelbarrel#No_sources.2F_pamento_behaving_rudely on Administrator Uncleg's webpage and also you can see Dan's reply here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Pamento on pamentoswebpage. Any advise you have in dealing with thisJERK would be very very helpful. ThanksPickelbarrel 03:17, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I took you advice

And went after dan head on, as seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Dwilke#I_SMELL_A_DIRTY_SOCK.21.21.21.21 I doubt that he'll be causing us trouble again. I think its obvious he is quick to accuse others of sockpuppetry because it is a tactic he himself is familiar with. I think we should ban all people under the age of eighteen from becoming wikipedia users for this very reason, but I am a little curious as to why he choose to seek me out and pick a fight with me, when it was YOU that he had the problem with. Anyway, I am back to my royce gracie ju jitsu training right now, but thanks for all the help. Anything else you can offer would be appreciated, but I think we have this vandal backed into a corner...thanks again Administrator in Training Pickelbarrel 15:57, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

R U an administrator?

I was going through some of the things needed to become an administrator, and on the pages submitted when considering someone for administravtive duties, I realized that they didnt seem to ever discuss the vandals that have been fought by the nominee in the past. Is it worth my time to keep going after dan / pamento ? Or is there another title I could recieve that might be more useful in getting rid of the pests that roam around wikipedia?Pickelbarrel 20:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for the advice

I have another question fo ryou, how did you get the term "taint to goup to the discussion board, I recently wrote a pretty good article on the term "panty waste" and it was almost immediatly deleted becuase it was veiwed as "nonscence". I had listed its meening saying it was composed of female smegma, and offered some trivia, (did you realize that the term was used in MVP most valuable primate, to refer to the opposing teams ineffectual player). Also I am alittle bit unclear as to what you mean by saying I can have whatever title I want. What titles are available? I am currently studiing under Administrator UncleG , to become an administrator myself, but i must admit that I am mostly interested in ridding wikipedia of jerks. Any advice on obtaining the means to do this, I still want to continue to study under Administrator UncleG as he has been very informative, but my heart really gets pumping when I know Ive put to rest a "Real Jerk". Any additional advice you can offer would be appreciated, and thanks for your timePickelbarrel 12:00, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Trouble with "panty waste"

Greetings emperor, I took your advice and asked dan and pamento to help me with an article entitled panty waste.

Am I to BE called an asshole

It seems that user:pamento has dedicated his home page to calling me an asshole. Should I view it as a part of the art that is wikipedia, or should I ask Administrator user:UncleG to erasere it? Your servantPickelbarrel 14:04, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed my name as per your order

Is there any other advise you may have for dealing with this vandal? I have been communicating with user:Sam Korn but seem to be recieving little help outside of youself and user:Wangi . as always it is appreciatedpickelbarrel the giant ASSHOLE 21:57, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

dear Emperor

I am curious to know what yo feel I should do about Sasm korn, who I accousted after I noticed he had been writing MINORS suggesting that they go out and drink. He told me that He was a minor himself, but that was after I had confronted him. I seem to be getting along with him, but Im not sure If I should just let the he is a possible pedophile thing rest. Should I go to the british authorities, or just let the other administrators handle it. as always your advice will be most welcomed...Your humble servant pickelbarrel 22:26, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A quick question

A user by the name of Karmafist has threatened to block me for(presumably) using your name in vain regarding something(although I'm not sure what) Perhaps you could speek with karma for me to resolve this.pickelbarrel 01:14, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Um, yeah. I don't know what's going on with you two here, but just don't recreate this[1]. Karm a fist 04:06, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pickelbarrel

Hi Cenestrad. It seems that Pickelbarrel has made something of an annoyance of himself in his short time on Wikipedia; shouting at people, throwing around charges of possible child molestation, that very silly signature of his, and rather unfortunate articles. The community is tolerant, but not of people who are using Wikipedia in a manner that appears to be that of a playground. To get himself unblocked, Pickelbarrel will have to apologise for the child endangerment stuff (something he has already declined to do), and promise to behave in a constructive manner: promise to actually write the encyclopedia rather than just play around in it. Until he makes those two undertakings, he'll not be unblocked I fear. If he does make those undertakings, and subsequently backtracks on them, he will probably be blocked indefinitely without any admin being interested in unblocking him. As for the re-written article, well, I suppose it wasn't a proper speedy since it had a link in that appears to go to a legitimate, if entirely frivolous, website that backs its claims. If you like, I can restore it as a gesture of good-faith, but I will immediately nominate it to AfD since someone else (Dragonflysixtyseven) thought it deleteable. I honestly don't think it would have much survival chance. So have a chat with Pickelbarrel, and see what he says, ok? -Splash^talk 23:14, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cenestrad, thanks for offering to talk with Pickelbarrel. It'd be good if he can contribute constructively, and calmly. I've restored Panty Waste; of course someone may AfD it at any moment. I myself will hold off for a short while to give the article a chance. But, out of courtesy to the deleting admin (i.e. it only takes one editor to want to delete to make an AfD nom), I'll nominate it in, say 24 hours or so. -Splash^talk 00:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, good luck! -Splash^talk 00:51, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:?

Ok, that was the end of my patience there. Don't call anyone else a douchebag, period. Don't call anybody any name, period, unless it's something objective or positive. I'll be watching to make sure you stay civil. Karm a fist 02:55, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Before I Head Out

I'd like to apologize if I've caused you any emotional harm, that was not my intention. There is a sense of lawlessness here on Wikipedia nowadays, and I was just trying to uphold it the best I could -- calling people "douchebags" isn't a constructive way to solve the problem. However, i'm glad that we can move on now. It appears that I have new messages, so I'll talk to you later if you'd like. Karm a fist 18:41, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Have you heard what happened to karma fist

As he has been stripped of administrator status, I told him he was one of your humble servants and should request your help if he feels he has been wronged. 01:02, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Dear Emperor Cenestrad

I have repeatedly contacted Dan about triing to work on a project together, but he has responded that "I will not work with you no matter how nice you are". I was wondering if I should just give up. He doesnt seem very receptive. Also I am busy triing to get karmafist back into the administrator chair. Any advice on Dan. Your loyal servantpickelbarrel 17:25, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Although I have never worked in that genre of music before, so Im not sure how good Ill be. I hope he appreciates it...thanks Emperor...your servant 18:13, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Cenestrad. Most admins are reasonable people, much like most non-admins. -Splash^talk 21:14, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Have you heard about the mistreatment of karmafist?

He has had all his powers stripped from him. I noticed it happened shotly after he threatened to block you, so I was wodering if you were the reason for this? If so Great Emperor I humbily ask that forgive his tresspasses. He seems to have meant to harm. Your servant administor in training pickelbarrel 00:07, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I love your new home page'

It is truesly befitting of an Emperor of your greatness, but thats not the reason I called. I notice that you signed karmas petion, but I dont know if you have made it aware to the powers that be that you no longer have a quarrel with him. I think if you made a statement on his disscussion page, they might read it and decide to allow him to be reinstated as an administrator. I appreciate you understanding in these matters O' Great Emperor Of Wikipeda pickelbarrel 20:01, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dwayne Buckle

A tag has been placed on Dwayne Buckle, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. See WP:V. NawlinWiki 04:37, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There weren't any sources cited -- also, being mentioned once on O'Reilly doesn't equal notability. See WP:BLP1E. NawlinWiki 04:46, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, "Google the name" doesn't work. You're the article author -- it's your responsibility to support the article with reliable sources. I'm going to speedy it again -- if you are willing to make the effort to cite sources, then do that and repost. If not, don't make others do your work for you.

I have not slandered you in any way. I think you must be a bit power mad. As far as edits I have made only 2 in the last couple days both of them to discussion pages of users and both civil. Now as far as reverts go I have not broken the 3 rv rule on any article or talk page. if you are going to be an administrator I suggest you use your privileges in a more intelligent and appropriate manner.--The Emperor of Wikipedia 07:57, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of All white jury

All white jury, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that All white jury satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/All white jury and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of All white jury during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Bfigura ^(talk) 04:07, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All_white_jury

Please don't introduce articles that are blatantly non-neutral into wikipedia, it's disruptive. While the topic of racial inequalities in the American justice system is a serious issue, this article isn't the way to address them. Try either African_American_contemporary_issues#The_criminal_justice_system or Racism. --Bfigura ^(talk) 04:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, I should have figured that. I'm probably going to withdraw the nom, so no issue. --Bfigura ^(talk) 04:45, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

re: The Curse of Scotland

I don't mind if you disagree with me about the potential for the page but a revert without any attempt to answer the underlying problems is inappropriate. Please join the discussion on the Talk page. I've read the page yet again and still don't see any content that rises beyond what I would expect to see in a truly great unabridged dictionary. In particular, the Wiktionary version has better sourcing of the etymology of the phrase. Rossami (talk) 23:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
