Islamist terrorism
[edit]How is the stuff vandalism?
- What are you referring to? Cyberevil 01:31, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
The islamist Terrorism stuff. Those are according to United States.
- If you are able to give valid sources for what you claim it may stay in the article Cyberevil 01:33, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
vandalism
[edit]There is a vandal patrol out there. You might want to join. Also, this makes me one of your supporters in this war. Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 03:45, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Los Amigos Invisibles
[edit]I was going through the speedy delete category and came across this band. Though it was a little rough, it wasn't really a speedy canidate...anyway, I fixed it up a bit. Just thought I'd drop you a note in case you went looking for it again. Rx StrangeLove 05:12, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
oriana fallaci
[edit]what subjective changes specifically are you refering to?--CltFn 17:02, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Evidently your accusations are without merit as you are not able to support them beyond claiming that they have been outlined before , even though the changes were made less than 40 minutes ago with no discussion anywhere on them.--CltFn 17:19, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hardly , by the way what sockpuppet are you really ? --CltFn 17:24, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Logon Didonai
[edit]Plato once stressed the need of "logon didonai", which means to give reason for your actions or sayings. Why, concerning Democracy&Nature "The whole thing is not noteworthy"?--TheVel 17:09, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
JBamb did not gave reasons. He wrote that it SEEMS to him that D&N is a vanity entry etc. But he posted nothing concerning noteworthiness. I gave some reasons of why it is noteworthy, Jbamb didn't concernig the opposite.--TheVel 17:20, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Testing
[edit]Dear Cyberevil, thank you for your remarks on me. I wonder which of my contributions you named "testing" and why did you remove them. Many thanks for your efforts, and perhaps you could use the Sandbox in the future. Thanks, anyway. 132.68.13.226 04:36, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Dear Cyberevil, I actually did follow your suggestion. It is good to have a friend like you. 132.68.13.226 05:20, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Again, I wrote a piece on Paul Turan in the Sandbox. Thank you for your sugestion and selfless help. 132.68.13.226 18:02, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Also, on Marianna Csornyei. Thanks again your help. I owe you one.132.68.13.226 18:48, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Ooops, I did it again. Thanks, pal! I tell everyone, what a friend you are. 132.68.13.226 04:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
One more: the main conjectures of Paul Erdös. How good is to test this. After all, whatever I do, is just testing, isn't it? Thanks, friend!132.68.13.226 06:05, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
Suggestion of POV in the VFD of pedophilia advocacy
[edit]Hi. You voted to delete the article pedophilia advocacy, formerly titled the childlove movement, because you apparently see it as a "point-of-view fork." All the comments I have read on the VFD page cited the title as being the only POV of the article, and since James James has since moved it to pedophilia advocacy, I would be fascinated to hear why you think it is "point-of-view." Or maybe you just didn't notice the move? // paroxysm (n)
18:28, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
- Are you kidding? Look at how much media coverage just one pedophile advocacy website has receieved. Here's an interesting news report: http://kctv.com/Global/category.asp?C=73283 "Pedophilia as a political movement? It sounds not just far-fetched but perverse. However, a KCTV5 News Investigation has uncovered such a movement and it’s captured the attention of Kansas ’ top law enforcement official." So, what were you saying? Perhaps you could reconsider your decision.
// paroxysm (n)
18:55, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
The discussion has moved from the title to the amount of original research in the article. If you take out all the original research you should be able to move the salvagable bits to pedophilia. Homey 20:10, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
Nicolaus Copernicus
[edit]I've checked the talk page for the "disputed" section but found none. The tag without a corresponding dispute makes no sense. Address your concerns in the talk page of the article first. --Lysy (talk) 01:20, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- I have the article on my watchlist as I expect there will be some followup. Also, User:David Kernow seems to watch that the NPOV is maintained and I believe he is less biased than I possibly might be. Thanks for looking into it. --Lysy (talk) 01:31, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
Anuk-su-namun
[edit]Hey thanks for adding the Anuck-su-namun article to the speedy deletion category. I was looking up the AfD policy to add Anuk-su-namun myself, when I noticed you had already done that. Thanks! --ImmortalGoddezz 01:50, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
Lily Loat
[edit]Please restore the links you deleted from the Lily Loat article. The removal of links to her publications clearly violates established Wiki norms. It is unfathomable how anyone can assume links to her own publications can be pov, as you mis-stated. Ombudsman 04:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Huh? What is so difficult to understand about the relevance of publications by the article's subject? Please restore the links. Ombudsman 04:33, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
Sorry that you stumbled into the Great Whale.to Controversy, as I like to call it. There is an RfC at Talk:MMR vaccine that Ombudsman has been refusing to partake in for a month now, instead preferring to discuss through edits. As you can see, he/she feels very strongly about it. Sigh...InvictaHOG 05:20, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for graciously restoring the gratuitously deleted Whale.to links, and happy new year. It appears that Invicta's aggressive suppression campaign is being waged in violation of the Wiki's basic tenet of encouraging robust article content. Invicta has fixated upon a diversionary RfC participation issue; on the same MMR page above the RfC, Invicta responded to comments about hazing tactics, fostered by Western medicine's hierarchical culture, by saying he didn't understand how they relate to his deletions. Ombudsman 05:47, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- InvictaHOG is the main man removing all of my links to anti-vaccine books, eg Loat's, who was the main anti-vaccinator in the early and mid 20century, now they have removed my page to her and tried to remove the current main anti-vaccinator Viera Scheibner, also trying with Vaccination critics. He, and 2 other allopaths are doing this because he is an allopath/vaccinator, and ad hominem argument is the best he and Jdwolff can come up with. They say there is a rfc on Talk:MMR vaccine, but when you look at it, it just comes down to ad hominem, and Ombudsman hits the nail there with his diversionary comment. Who gave Hog the right to remove links to books--himself. whale.to is bad because it has articles on satanism/implants etc. Basic ad hominem. Here [1] he removed a link to a complete on-line book of Wallace where he demolished smallpox vaccination with statistics. Go figure! john 10:44, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
Sabine women
[edit]Rob them? Dude, didn't you read the text? The Roman people were formed by the Romans and the Sabine women. Romulus had no women for his men, so he took the Sabine women. Think before you revert. You should revert back! Rob sabine women... that's so silly! --Anittas 04:18, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
Here is what EB says:
Romulus consolidated his power, and the city was named for him. He increased its population by offering asylum to fugitives and exiles. He invited the neighbouring Sabines to a festival and abducted their women. The women married their captors and intervened to prevent the Sabines from seizing the city. In accordance with a treaty drawn up between the two peoples, Romulus accepted the Sabine king Titus Tatius as his coruler. Titus Tatius's early death left Romulus sole king again, and after a long rule he mysteriously disappeared in a storm. Believing that he had been changed into a god, the Romans worshiped him as the deity Quirinus.
http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9083869?query=romulus&ct=eb
Rob them? Just where did you get that from? --Anittas 04:20, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
- They were forced to marry, just the way Greek settlers forced the wives in Asia Minor to marry them, after killing their husbands. The rape of the sabine women is famous worldwide. Just google "rape of the Sabine women".
The Romans requested neighbouring Sabines to let them marry some of their women but they were refused. The Romans then invited all their neighbours to a huge religious celebration in honour of Neptune. And they came, men, women and children. In the middle of the party, the younger Romans rushed in and carried off the Sabine women who were then raped to ensure the production of offspring.
http://www.liveandlearn.com.au/Dawn/50/Women%20and%20War%204%20Sabine.html --Anittas 04:29, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
- You are partially right, but forced marriage is also a form of rape. Forced marriage = forced sex. It doesn't matter whether the Sabine women would later help the Romans. --Anittas 04:40, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
Sure, we can leave it out. I just don't see any bigger difference between Zeus abducting Europe and Romans abducting the Sabine woman. Dragostea din tei is old. The latest Ro hit is from Akcent and their single, Kylie. Romanian is no longer the 'most Latin' language, thanks to our Slavic neighbors, but the language resembles the Latin grammar the most. Take care. --Anittas 04:57, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
David Cameron
[edit]Hi Cyberevil,
Apparently you thought my contribution to the Cameron article was POV and removed it. Just to remind you, the sentence was:
The new leader, being from the left of the Party, may face serious opposition from UKIP: a rightwing and anti-European party.
Could you tell me in what way you think this violates NPOV? This does not say that Cameron or UKIP are bad people, and I feel it's important to include discussion of the prospects of politicians in their articles.
Thanks a lot.
just a thought
[edit]Just a thought: I don't know how bad 132.68.13.226 (talk · contribs)'s edits really are, but instead of even appearing to bite their heads off, you might consider coming up with a template or boiler plate message that addresses better editing techniques. It appeared to me that 132.68.13.226 (talk · contribs) does not understand the format and tone of this resource. Helping them to understand it might be a better way of adressing their sloppy edits, and make them interested in staying and even creating a user account, instead of feeling a bit pounced on. Not that you were in the wrong; your reverts/comments were definitely in line with Wikipedia's standards and such; but to encourage new users, a bit of a slowdown might be in order, especially when they respond to you in the manner that 132.68.13.226 (talk · contribs) did. Just my 2 cents. Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 14:32, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
- Another point for the Wafah Dufour article: the sourcing for whether she or her mother saw OBL once needs to be reinforced by the 20/20 interview or the GQ interview, as the Observer article is hazy; ergo, my misgivings on the talk page. Do you have access to either of those two? - CobaltBlueTony 05:56, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
Revert
[edit]I feel you've made an error on one of your reverts. You recently reverted my edit on the dinosaur article. The information there is cited & it was there before I got it to the main page as a FA. The other information was gotten of a dodgy internet site & is uncited. Please put my information back & my info is real, while his may not be. Spawn Man 05:04, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
Rita Cosby
[edit]Cyberevil
First of all I feel like a fool sending a note to anyone with a name like "Cyberevil" Are you older or younger than 13?
Why do you delete my comment that Rita Cosby's voice "is considered by many people to be irritating" ? It is well known and true
Bill Norman
Lovely Rita
[edit]Cyberevil
You are quick to revert my edits, but not as quick to respond to my comment
- I responded to your comment on your Talk page. See User_talk:152.163.100.195 Cyberevil 04:41, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
This comment copied from User talk:Lanoitarus I was not about to delete the anon's comments, I only reverted the previous blanking. Maybe he did it by mistake. Cheers. Cyberevil 05:18, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry for the confusion, Im aware that you didnt delete it, it was actually Hall Monitor, and a bit earlier on. -Lanoitarus (talk) .:. 05:21, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Huh?
[edit]Please see my comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Columbus Short. User:Zoe|(talk) 17:27, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Higher Ground
[edit]Dear Cyberevil,
I don't consider the listing of the Higher Ground nightclub as spam. It is one of the cultural institutions in the Burlington, Vermont area
While there is no mention of the band Phish on that entry, Phish's connection to the club is more about the individual members playing there than the band themselves. Most Phish-related side projects since 1998 have debuted at Higher Ground, as I added a "Phish Connection" section to the entry: Higher_Ground_(nightclub).

Graffiti on your user page
[edit]Hi. I noticed the junk on your user page and reverted it. Hope that's OK. Sbz5809 11:53, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Marine Academy of Science and Technology
[edit]Cyberevil-
Just so you know, I have not been committing this vandalism. This is being done by friends of mine, it looks like one of their usernames is Bitties. I am only correcting this vandalism when it arises. That is why I am pushing for deletion of the incorrect logo that was uploaded. Once again, this is not me. If you look in the history, I'm only entered under where the page has been corrected to its original state. All other IP's are those of my friends. I'm trying to get them to stop. Also, I wished to delete the image because I uploaded it without proper permission, which is in fact needed to use the image. Klander Brigade 20:35, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Thank you VERY much.
[edit]I swear, I should never have swung by as an anon. When I saw the "Carlow Crab" idiocy starting anew, I felt compelled to step in. How this jackass keeps avoiding blocks is beyond me. Anyway, thank you for watching my back and reverting his vandalism. - Lucky 6.9 03:34, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
gm lite
[edit]I got that error with some versions of it as well. It should work in Firefox 1.5 ok though. The current release wasn't working for me. You are welcome to copy from my monobook User:Xaosflux/monobook.js. When copying you should stop at the Lupin's part a few pages down, that's something else. After loading a new monobok I usually close my browser, empty my local cache, re start my browser, then fore refresh on some wiki page to kick it on. xaosflux Talk/CVU 00:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Woot glad you got it working, happy rolling back, don't forget to always check the dif's! xaosflux Talk/CVU 02:34, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
concerning User:192.45.72.27
[edit]hi there Cyberevil,
thanks for reverting the changes by 192.45.72.27 on South Tyrol. The user keeps on continously pushing on that article, Trentino-South Tyrol, Bozen-Bolzano and Italy, despite reverts. I have already reverted three times the changes on South Tyrol, it keeps on happening. Not quite sure what to do now, I am trying to get a third opinion and the help of an administrator at this point. I would greatly appreciate your help and input, thanks alot. with kind regards Gryffindor 02:35, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- hi there cyberevil, you should be aware that user Gryffindor made changes without prior consideration of other's views and has a strong Austrian/German political bias. You only need to look at the unilateral moves and name changes this person has put through to see why now he is so upset. He wants to use Wiki to push a political agenda and even tries to use its rules to protect the unethical changes/edits he made. Go figure.
Foosball/Jitz
[edit]like it or not, foosball is called jitz in toronto.
NYU backronym
[edit]Hi Cyberevil,
On the backronyms page, I noticed that you deleted my entry for NYU ("Now You're Unemployed"). This is actually a common acronym used by NYU grads (of all people). You can check that for yourself on google. Besides, I don't understand how that is any more offensive that some of the many other backronyms used to describe other colleges ("UCR = University of Cal Rejects", etc.)
It's a legitimate code sample I wrote that illustrates the language. Put it back.
Looking at your rap sheet here (this page) you're pretty quick to revert other people's work. Try to be a little more discriminating because you really pissed me off for a minute or so and I can imagine the other users feel pretty much the same. Regards 84.160.230.81 03:22, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Fast reverting 101
[edit]Sure thing :"D. The secrets to my success is essentially here; the only things you don't see is that I have FireFox set to open incoming links in new tabs and when I revert I hit the middle mouse button (which again opens a new tab) as I proceed to the user_talk page and use my extra warning tabs to insert a subst:test warning of my choosing. All the while I can keep an eye on new edits in the CDVF in the background. - RoyBoy 800 04:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
- My bad, forgot the basics... you have to have CDVF setup properly in Configuration; make new rows Insert from top (means no scrolling to see the latest stuff), Auto remove old edits (first option), also show only IP's lets you focus on the majority of vandals. For vandalism from user accounts, Lupins "Filter recent changes" option is better for that (assuming the vandalism isn't major). Of course also setup the colors where known blacklisted vandals stand out, and enable auto blacklist vandals and begin to construct a white list (turn off Show IP's only) from users who are admins (you can tell by the auto summary Reverting X to X). Then they help CDVF blacklist reverted vandals. I prefer to permanently list them, but after a while you need to purge the list or else 1/3 of edits are flagged as vandals. And given AOL changing IP's all the time; it just gets to be too many after a while. - RoyBoy 800 04:24, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oh and one more thing, the use of hotkeys as much as feasible/possible, so Alt+E for edit, Alt+S for save and Ctrl+W to close tabs speeds things up and keeps your mouse fingers from tiring/hurting. :"D RoyBoy 800 04:27, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Last thing, I promise. Since I'm an admin when I click on an article diff I have an extra Revert link next to the newest version. So instead of having to go into the article history to get the good version and saving over, all I have to do is click the revert link and that does it for me. Soon you might be able to request Revert capability (without having to be an admin), but its currently just a proposal so don't try to nominate yourself just yet. :"D - RoyBoy 800 05:09, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
hi
[edit]Hi Cyberevil, you said I was adding a commercial link; I am just adding in profiles that we wrote about players. This is not commercial!
Rollback
[edit]Please do not get trigger happy with rollback. I reverted an edit with an actual summary whereas I could have just pressed rolled back. Many admins have agreed that list of sexual slurs should be a redirect.Voice of AllT|@|ESP 03:45, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- "The term "triggerhappy" may be uncalled for, as the amount of vandalism sometimes doesn't leave time to thoroughly judge each edit and I have to rely on edit history, differences and explanations to come to a conclusion"
- Well then I apologize for that word use, as I have used Lupin's tool and "New IP edits" and gets overwhelming, and I get to quick to revert, almost as "unsure...revert first, examine more later". And sometimes I get the diff order backwords, all though that has not happened recently. You have reverted like 100 edits of vandals today...I don't know how you do it.Voice of AllT|@|ESP 04:12, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
Anon comment
[edit]You are a scary leftist who fears the truth. I will never stop to add the anthropological paragraph which is according to the highest authorities of anthropology, it is useless to block it.
Oriana Fallaci
[edit]Hello Cyberevil. Amir Taheri is a respected journalist so I don't think he would lie about her views. I'm going to reinstate the views and look for a better source, but I don't think they should be removed altogether. Yuber(talk) 14:42, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
Me
[edit]Thank you for the vandalism warning you have changed my life around.
Godmode - Light
[edit]I see you got it to work without the "failure to Parse" error; how? Mine always gives that error. I'm using Firefox 5.0 at home. At work it's IE6, but there is nothing I can do about that, I know it doesn't work with IE. Thanks. Avi 17:19, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- whoops, meant FF 1.5. Should I try and locate FF 1.06 again, would that help? Avi 01:56, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
