Confirmed status

I am not an administrator so I can't confirm you, but if you would hit edit at the top of the page, type something, anything in and then hit save, you will have 8 edits. If you then do that again twice more you will have 10 edits and you should be autoconfirmed. GB fan (talk) 00:27, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks I will. cyberpower (talk) 20:30, 1 July 2011 (EST)

I am autoconfirmed.

Have you tried editing a semi-protected article? GB fan (talk) 00:40, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
It's not working, it's still locked. Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to unlock it first? cyberpower (talk) 20:40, 1 July 2011 (EST)
What article are you trying to edit? GB fan (talk) 00:43, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Main article: List of Pokémon: Black & White episodes
cyberpower (talk) 20:48, 1 July 2011 (EST)
At this point you should be able to edit that article. If I were having this problem, I would try to log out of wikipedia and then log back in and see if that fixes the problem. GB fan (talk) 00:52, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Yea, that did it. Thanks so much. I can now add my information. cyberpower (talk) 00:55, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Your welcome, glad I could help. If you need any help let me know. GB fan (talk) 01:00, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

List of Pokémon: Black & White episodes

Do not add content that is not supported by reliable sources and do not make assumptions on airdates by extrapolating what will occur with the Japanese broadcasts. There are no reliable sources listing the titles of episodes beyond July 9, and there is no way to know when the fishing competition episode will air. This is one of the reasons why new members such as yourself are not allowed to edit that article until you learn the various rules and regulations of this website.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 02:03, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Oh be quite. The sources where I get the information are good. The estimated date might have been a stretch but the episodes are correct. If you want to undo something, than undo what I assume. When I assume, i write a note. You don't need to be snippy. I will now undo your changes with exception of the estimated date. In case you want to know, my sources are tv.com and serebii.net.cyberpower (talk) 02:16, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
I'm not a new member. I've been continuously working on the episode guide before it was semi-locked. That is why I created this account. I started the season 14 guide.cyberpower (talk) 02:16, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
The sources you have used are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. I don't give a crap what Serebii or Bulbapedia or whoever else out there is posting the English episode titles. If they are not in reliable sources then it is not allowed to be used. And the estimated date is beyond the pale of what is allowed. There is no reason for you to pick a number out of thin air and decide that that is when the episode is going to air. The information you have added to the article is not allowed and will not be replaced unless something other than Serebii or TV.com are posting the information.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 02:21, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
To reiterate, do not put the airdates or English titles for the Emolga episodes again unless you have a source that is not Serebii or TV.com, because TV.com is a user-created website and Serebii is lying about where they got that information from because there is nothing on the Cartoon Network site that lists airdates beyond July 15.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 02:23, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
There are other sources that can get their information about Pokemon titles. Not everything has to come from Cartoon Network. I have observed that TV.com is a reliable source, and they have never missed an episode or air date to date. Funny how they say Wikipedia is not reliable.cyberpower (talk) 02:28, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Do you want more sources? I can give you plenty of sources with the same information that are completely independent of each other. They only go up to the second emolga episode. I wouldn't be posting them if I wasn't sure that these are right.cyberpower (talk) 02:31, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
TV.com is not a reliable source according to our rules. Reliable sources include the official website of the show (which happens to be at CartoonNetwork.com) or TV guides (such as the MSN TV website we are using on the page). Fansites and other user-created websites such as Bulbapedia, IMDB, or TV.com are not reliable sources. They can be external links, but not sources to be used in the article. I do not know why you are bringing up Wikipedia's reliability other than as an ad hominem attack against the site because you do not know all of the rules and regulations. In the future, if you find that a page is protected and you wish to edit it, you can use {{editprotected}} and make a request on the talk page. It would have certainly avoided this discussion. Remember, all content added to Wikipedia must be reliably sourced to somewhere. But here at Wikipedia, we made a decision long ago that that somewhere will never be Serebii.net because we cannot trust their acquisition of information. I do not care how many fansites you can bring up that list the episode titles. They are not reliable sources.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 02:33, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
I recall that ToonZone was used lots of times to reference an upcoming episode.cyberpower (talk) 03:08, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
I want to get back on to good terms with you. Can I put the names up if I put an external reference link to the name?cyberpower (talk) 03:08, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
No. Toonzone isn't good either. And you can't just have any external reference link. It has to be one that fits with our rules that you can read at WP:RS.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 17:50, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi there

Welcome to Wikipedia! You probably want to be careful about leaving messages that say "this is a big felony". Felony is a very specific legal term, and not one that's used here, because it has significant legal reprecussions. Even saying things like that could lead to you being blocked for making a legal threat. It might be better to use some other wording asking them to stop... Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 21:44, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Will Do. Sorry. cyberpower (talk) 12:52, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Best Wishes

Could you write up the expanded summaries for the episodes I haven't worked on?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:30, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Sure I can do that. Do you want me to do the ones not aired yet? If I do that I may have to put in English for I do not remember the Japanese ones.cyberpower (talk) 12:29, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
Just update the episodes that have been out in Japan. And also, don't split up the Battle Subway hour-long episode into two episodes. If it comes to that in the US broadcast, then we'll deal with it then.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:13, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
And if you need help with the Japanese names, we have something for that.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:14, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I only split the Battle Subway special because it was broken into two parts in Japan. I even have the recordings of the episode. I was able to figure out the Japanese names and I only have the intention of writing summaries for the episodes released in Japan. cyberpower (talk) 18:18, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
That's what I asked. Write summaries for the episodes up through the Nimbasa Gym match.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:42, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Some notes: try to keep these spellings.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 21:02, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that. When writing these summaries, I type as I watch. There are bound to spelling and grammar issues. I planned to go back and fix them all once the summaries for the episodes I have are complete. cyberpower (talk) 22:15, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
I'll fix the grammar.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:16, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
Thanks. cyberpower (talk) 01:32, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
You have the two Raimon Gym episodes left, btw. Oh, and try not to use contractions such as "can't" and "don't".—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 03:19, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
I first need to get my hands on those episodes. They will be written when I'm able to get to them. cyberpower (talk) 00:12, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Rollback

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. —An  optimist on the run! 10:43, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much. I will promise I will only use this feature in good faith.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 11:29, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Black & White/Best Wishes

There is no way to know what the American dub is going to do when they reach the 52 episode mark. We should not pre-emptively decide that the "Black & White" name is going to end at the point 1 year after the Best Wishes premiere. The list of episodes can always be split off when the English dub reaches a point that it renames itself.—Ryulong (竜龙) 23:12, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Ok.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:39, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
Also why the hell did you italicize the "an" in "Stephan"?—Ryulong (竜龙) 23:57, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
I guess I went a little overboard on it. It was to emphasize the name since everybody pronounces it wrong.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 02:10, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
So is his name "Stephan" or "Stefan"?—Ryulong (竜龙) 02:11, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
I'm talking about the Anime. I would Stephan pronounced (Stef-on).—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 02:13, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
How is the name written in the anime, if at all? Because either way, you should not italicize any part of it just to emphasize it.—Ryulong (竜龙) 04:08, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Saw your revert

What edit of 78.86.229.119's did you mean to revert?  Mbinebri  talk ← 22:33, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

I thought this user wrote some non-sense comment on an article of some sort. I realized it was a talk page after I hit the Revert and Warn button on Huggle.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:36, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
Ah, I see. Well, the comment was nonsense so I removed it. Thanks anyway!  Mbinebri  talk ← 22:41, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Dan Warton -> Dan Worton

Hi, I dont think I am very good at this wiki stuff. I was trying to change the title of an article to Dan Worton and not Dan Warton. I created a page called Dan Worton which is correct but Dan Warton is still there and should be deleted because its spelled incorrectly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clogdiver (talk • contribs) 20:47, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

I properly tagged it for deletion and let the Wikipedia staff know about it. Next time just request the page's name be changed—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 20:58, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
P.S. Remember to always sign your comments to let me know who I am talking to.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 20:59, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Your template

Thanks for the clarification. As soon as I looked at the section where I placed the comment, I realised that he'd given you permission to use it; once I saw that, I knew that I shouldn't delete anything or block anyone. If I scared you, I'm sorry; my only purpose in leaving these comments was to ask for help with getting rid of the big ugly notice that asked admins to block you. Nyttend (talk) 22:48, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

I'm still working on getting the template to recognize my account. I wouldn't steal anything unless I get permission from the owner. I would also certainly not impersonate anybody.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:51, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Stop making your own templates. You can copy my formatting, but I'm doing so much to User:Ryulong/Clock such that you can use it without making your own.—Ryulong (竜龙) 23:17, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

When your clock was on my account, it caused problems. I created my own clock and the impersonation barrier is starting to comply. I intend to test it in a moment.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:20, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
It doesn't cause problems anymore. Just use all the crap I've made so you can use it by using my pages.—Ryulong (竜龙) 23:21, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
I already made my clock and set it to my desired Parameters. The impersonation barrier is just a kill time project since I've got nothing better to do right now. As a matter of fact, I think recoding this is fun. My passion is computers. Well, that and Pokemon.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:25, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
You didn't have to copy everything. Just use my template and your own parameters. If you're in California, you should use "1=-8 hours", "2=PST", and "ampm=yes". If you're in New York or Boston, you should use "1=-5 hours", "2=PST", and "ampm=yes". If you're in London, you should use "1=0 hours", "2=GMT", and "ampm=no".—Ryulong (竜龙) 23:31, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
That was not cool. 1) I wanted the impersonation barrier because it looked cool, 2) it gave me something to do which you just destroyed. I will use your clock template but I want to make that impersonation barrier.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:34, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
So long as everything works, that's fine. You just didn't need to copy everything over into your own space.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:07, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
Yep. I even called a random IP talk page, copied my template, and hit the preview button, and the impersonation barrier was tripped.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:10, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
Next is adding an archive. Since I operate a lot on huggle and zip through edits, it's possible I may accidentally revert a non-vandalism edit. I may get complaints (hopefully not). Sorry about the fight.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:12, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
You're welcome. As soon as I saw that Ryulong had given permission to copy it, the only reason that I was involved was trying to find some way to get rid of the warning. Good to see that you and he figured it out; I couldn't even find a template in the coding that was responsible for it. Nyttend (talk) 12:43, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
It's the Penguin sub template. By rewriting the template I made it work for my account. If this header is ever copied onto another page other than mine, the warning message will appear. You can even try it out. Just copy my header code and paste it into a page and hit the preview button. Don't save it though.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 13:40, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Inappropriate warning

I asked why my edits were being reverted as part of a conversation on a person's talk page. This is not vandalism, please do not label it as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeptic25 (talk • contribs) 01:15, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

I had reverted that warning because I realized I made a mistake and mistook that for an article. Also, please sign your comments by using ~~~~.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 01:19, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Where in the World is Matt Lauer

The addition to the page was the clue posted on The Today Show website for Matt Lauers location for tomorrow, (Wednesday). It was completely accurate and it was placed in the correct (clue) location for Wednesday, Nov 9, 2011. 72.188.47.24 (talk) 18:14, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I zip through approx. 70-100 edits per minute. You your edit looked strange and I thought it was vandalism. I restored your edit and removed the warning from your page.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 18:26, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Carrier Classic

Why was the carrier classic chart removed? Charting the information is neccessary as other carrier classics are scheduled. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.46.143.30 (talk) 23:16, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

I replaced the chart becuase it occurred to me that your edits were not vandalism. Also please remember to sign your posts by typing ~~~~.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:21, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Re: Awan - Disambiguation page

I have not vandalised the page in question, in fact the addition I have removed is inappropriate, as it has no place on a disambiguation page, because it is a reproduction of an existing Wikipedia article (Awan [Pakistan]), save for an inaccurate addition being made by a user who is attempting to pass off a Rajput tribe (the Gungals) as Awans. 92.20.3.203 (talk) 19:08, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

You may be right and you may not be right. It seems to me that ClueBot NG and Wkight94 are agreeing with me. I review about 60-80 different edits per minute. It is possible I may have mistakenly thought an IP User was section blanking. Again ClueBot and Wknight seem to have executed the exact same revert. Since I don't know much about disambiguation pages yet, please take this up with Wknight94 by responding on his talk page. Next time, please create a new section by following the instructions on the top of my talk page. They are also visible when editing the page. Next time I will revert without looking at the post.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 19:21, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
I am right, and the matter has been resolved; WKnight94 got in touch with me, and left the following message:
"Sorry, I guess you were right. That page was wrongly changed from a disambiguation page a few days ago and you were just fixing that. I changed it back." (See: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:92.20.3.203&diff=cur).92.20.3.203 (talk) 22:04, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
I am glad it is settled. In the meantime I taught myself what a disambiguation page is so this won't happen again.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:07, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi

Good to see you doing sterling anti-vandalism work. You might want to take a brief look at the guidelines on sigs. Rich Farmbrough, 22:23, 12 November 2011 (UTC).

Thanks for comment. I am aware that my signature code is excruciatingly long but, other than that, it still does comply with standards. I will work on shortening the code.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 15:50, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
You seem to have missed WP:SIG#NoTemplates when (incorrectly) concluding that your sig complies with standards. Anomie⚔ 23:12, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
I understand your concern and I appreciate it. The signature itself is not a template but rather holds a template that only has a color behind. It is used to change the color of my signature to indicate my online status. I do not wish to be a rebel or give the appearance of someone who violates Wiki policies, but, I believe that other than length, that my sig should still comply with standards. Hidden behind User talk:Cyberpower678/Statussig is only one word.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 12:25, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
The signature guideline prohibits use of templates in signatures at all, not only the use a template as the entirety of the signature. There are at least two problems that apply to your specific signature: (1) it generates unnecessary load on the servers having to reparse every page you've signed (154 at current count) every time you change the color, and (2) it is quite simple for any passing vandal to change your template in such a way that it would cause major problems on every talk page you've signed. Anomie⚔ 15:00, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Who am I kidding? This just sucks. Although, I really believe that this won't be much of a problem. If I ever do encounter problems, I will change my username.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 12:45, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
There is nothing wrong with your username, just the use of a template in your signature. Anomie⚔ 15:00, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
If the signature gets out of control or becomes too much of a problem or causes too much disruption on Wikipedia. I will kill the template.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 15:49, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Why don't you just kill it now, instead of waiting for vandals to mess with it or waiting until you've signed so many pages that it blows up the job queue every time you change the color? If you'll stop using the template in your signature now, I'll even volunteer to clean up the pages currently transcluding it for you. Anomie⚔ 16:25, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Xeno did something to my signature. I think I still like how it operates. You don't need to clean up. There aren't that many pages that have my signatures.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 18:29, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

my talkpage

There are 2 main issues at the time. First was Future Perfect's vindictive campaign to stalk my contribution looking for dirt after I questioned his patronage of a major sockpuppeteer on AN/I. The other issue is the blocking admin was a fellow arbCom candidate at the time and was revealed to have a large sock farm as well as editing under multiple IPs mere days after she blocked me and was forced to withdraw from the election.--NWA.Rep (talk) 23:56, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

She still appears to be an administrator. Having a sockpuppet farm as you put it would warrant removal of administrative rights and possession of account. If you do take a look at [this], you will see you weren't alone at this. Other admins have disputed this. I am going to say this though, when you are blocked and a block template has been placed on your page, it is in violation of Wikipedia guidelines to remove that template until you are no longer blocked. It is also of Wikipedia guidelines to attack users even if it's written on your own page. I believe that if you went through with the contesting the block by utilizing the template, another administrator would have reviewed it and possibly lifted the block. The block was partially just, just timed wrong. I would have given you tops 24h and that's it considering the circumstances. However, other information has revealed that you respected your final warning and that therefore, makes the block unjust in my opinion. To contest the unblock, you simply follow the instructions on the block template. I hope this clears some things up. If you want to be on the administrators good side, it is best not to fight with them. You talk to them reasonably if you don't want them to be hard on you. Oh and also, it's helpful if you link user pages in your discussion so the one you're talking to can easily go to that page.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:34, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Here is my evidence that I am right then

Nothing like picture proof right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Glock17gen4 (talk • contribs) 00:26, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

True but, pictures can be wrong. If you saw a picture of the Leaning Tower of Piza standing straight up, would you believe it or would you say something is wrong with the picture? Get my hint? ESPN can be wrong. They could've posted the wrong flag by accident. It's just like with my band when we marched down the Rose Bowl Parade. We are called the Downingtown High School Marching Band. What did they call us on TV? The Downington High School Marching Band. Also, please sign using ~~~~.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:31, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
I saw it with my own eyes, I watched the fight, it would appear on the video as well! Cung Le was born in Vietnam. I just hope you guys do the right thing, because my information is accurate, and I stand by it. I have been a great contributor to many UFC pages! And I am always unbiased. Glock17gen4 (talk) 00:42, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
You date back to the 3rd of July, 2011. You seem to have a knack for UFC's and people's biographies. Please use 1 more colon than I did in your response to my response or other people's responses in the future. This keeps the conversation consistent.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:47, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
Also on this page, he is listed with the flag of Vietnam, not the American flag: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_UFC_fighters He represents Vietnam where he was born, not America. Having an American flag next to his name would be false and inaccurate information. Glock17gen4 (talk) 00:48, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
I am working on it. Any page can be wrong.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:52, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
The twitter account seems authentic. You have to provide more evidence other than a photo to prove his nationality. Can you do that? Other users aparently are also agreeing on the fact that he is American Vietnamese.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:59, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
There are many people that agree with me! Was this really decided over a twitter that is possibly fake? I think this is a huge mistake, and that it discredits wikipedia terribly... What about a South Vietnam flag? He is not American! Glock17gen4 (talk) 01:16, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
He may not be American, but it doesn't mean you can't gain American citizenship. Continue this discussion on your talk page.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 01:24, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Regarding Cung Le and UFC 139 revert articles

Hi Cyberpower,

First of all I would like to apologize for getting into a revert war with another user. However, as you already can see I provided enough proof that Cung Le is not a Vietnamese National and using that to identify him is offensive. Glock continued to use the picture as his only evidence as to why that makes him a Vietnamese national, but I showed him the twitter links where even Cung Le himself stated he did not know and will ask the UFC about it.

I also provided more information as regards to him acknowledging as to why he is an American (USA) by Nationality. He has competed and coached Team USA. His own website states that he is a Vietnamese-American. Vietnam does not offer dual citizenship so he is not a Vietnamese national. It would be offensive to him and to many Vietnamese-Americans who find the communist flag offensive. The South flag of Vietnam is him representing his heritage, he is one of the many refugees that fled after the fall of Vietnam. The other user Glock who was disputing this used a ridiculous comparison and compared Cung Le to Osama Bin Laden. I gave him an example of another sports athlete, Hakeem Olajuwon, who was originally from Nigeria but also obtained US citizenship and eventually played for Team USA. UFC made an error in using the communist flag to represent him.

Please take everything into account and all the information and evidence that I have provided, including his American Nationality. Also if you look at the other articles and fighters that Cung Le competed against, including UFC and Strikeforce, he went to every single article and reverted it and used the communist flag to represent Cung Le. Please take into account the drastic actions and extreme comparisons based on one picture as compared to the evidence (including pictures, bios, and messages) that I have provided.Thanks again. PinoyFilAmPride (talk) 00:49, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

I am working on it.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 00:50, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
I think I did enough research to finally prove that he is a U.S. citizen and that his Nationality as an American stands. Please tell Glock to stop reverting the pages to a Vietnamese National PinoyFilAmPride (talk) 06:01, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I think you may have missed a bit of vandalism when you undid someone else vandalising.

Unblock Request

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Cyberpower678 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Although I do not know why I was blocked, I believe it may have been in regards to trying to settle a matter where I may have overstepped a boundary I am unaware of. If that is the case, I sincerely apologize to Wikipedia and would like to say that I am not and do not wish to be a disruptive editor. I wish to be a sincere and civil editor that wishes to solve this dispute in compliance with Wikipedia policy. I would also like to add that I goofed as an editor and accidentally considered Facebook a reliable source accidentally believing Cung Le's coworker which is the dispute I tried to settle. I realize that was a mistake. Again I apologize for disruption I caused. If you could please state what I did wrong exactly, I will consider it and learn from that mistake and make sure it will never happen again. Thank you for your time.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 11:07, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Decline reason:

The block is related to oversighted edits, and as admins can't see these, we cannot properly evaluate what happened or whether you should be unblocked. I would suggest that you contact the Ban Appeals Subcommittee, since as members of the arbitration committee they are able to determine what was oversighted and why. (Note that this decline is not an opinion as to the merits of the block either way, just an inability to evaluate it.) Seraphimblade Talk to me 15:36, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Request reason:

Requesting that an oversighter administrator like WilliamH (the blocker) or PhilKnight review this unblock request. I would like to use the same reasoning as above.

Decline reason:

I am not an oversighter, but I have received information from the blocking admin via email. I have reason to believe that your best course of action right now would be to contact WP:BASC instead of this channel.

Ridiculously long signature, barely readable talk page

Your "Christmas signature" is ridiculously long, please observe the length limit on signatures and ensure that your signature is 255 characters of wikitext or less. On an unrelated topic, the font you are using for your talk page makes it barely legible. –xenotalk 15:43, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

I believe it's my talk page, my rules. I will change it to be more legible however. As for the signature, I am already working on a fix for that while still maintaining the Christmas theme.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 16:17, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Your talk page belongs to the community, should be legible. –xenotalk 16:21, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I thought since it is under the control of me that I get to decide how it looks. Nonetheless, I did not know it was illegible to other users. I guess my setup was meant for certain computer resolutions and browsers. That's at least what I was told when I commented on User: HJ Mitchell's flag being in the way of the Wikipedia logo.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 16:49, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
You can decide how it looks, but not to the point of making it unusable. I cannot read your comments in the page view. The font you are using is meant to be a decorative font used in headings and wedding invitations, not for interpersonal communication. Please fix your signature (it is 529 characters, the length limit is 255) and use a human-readable font for your talk page. –xenotalk 16:55, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Big white text on a green background? It's enough to make me ill. There's a difference between the minor inconvenience caused in one corner of a userpage and the whole of a talk page (which is a far more important page) being unusable even to those of us with good eyesight. And you and I have spoken about your signature before—you need to make it much, much shorter, because a signature that long is disruptive. Even just having words (instead of characters) alternating colour would drastically shorten it. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:02, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I will. Thanks for pointing out my talk page issues. I was unaware that other user such as yourself is unable to read it. Fixing this is no problem whatsoever. Fixing the signature without compromising it is a bit more challenging. However I haven't come up with a solution yet. I plan on testing a new idea tonight. Since I am in school right now, I can't do anything right now. Rest assured it will get fixed. Happy holidays.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 17:06, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Fair enough; please attend to the signature issue prior to making any further signed talk page edits outside your userspace. –xenotalk 18:18, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
HJ commented on my page? That's weird that it disappeared. I will be fixing my talk page now making the font legible. I will also be fixing the signature now.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 20:22, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

What;s not legible about it?—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 20:46, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Your green signature on the green background. Or your red signature on the red background, depending on the horizontal alignment. Please try to remember that "prettifying" your userspace and signature provides no benefit to the project, and sometimes, less is more. –xenotalk 20:48, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Actually the intent of this is just as I decorate my for the holidays, I decorate my talk page for the holidays. It's to get people in the Christmas spirit. As long as people can read it, I'm happy. This is my taste of style and this is how I like my Userspace.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:50, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I am having difficulty manipulating the div tag to confine the border to only surround the text and not extend all the way to the end of the page. I can accomplish this by stuffing this into a 1x1 table. Now the date won't attach to the back of the signature. It now attaches below it. Any suggestions?—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:50, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
My suggestion would be to adopt a far more spartan signature. Right now in your 'draft' you are at 639 characters [1]. (I might also point out that you have spent upwards of a few hours worrying about your signature.) –xenotalk 22:55, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm autistic. I'm very picky about my signature. For me it has to be perfect. The size will be reduced once I can confine it properly. Is there a way to transclude ~~~~~?—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 22:57, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
<includeonly>~~</includeonly>~<includeonly>~~</includeonly>
However, you still may not exceed 255 characters of wikitext and your current draft is well over this limit. –xenotalk 22:59, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for your help. I will cut out all the unnecessary. If it works, yay. If not, I will revert to my old and standard signature which has 249 characters last time I checked.—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:06, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
This signature is to test it's functionality.{|

|-

| || 23:12, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

|}

Another sig test.
Getting slightly better... You're not going to get everything you want into your signature within 255 characters. Even without any fancy formatting, the pied links to your contributions, talk page, and user page come to 115 characters. Every time you change the colour, you add 26 characters onto that. It's an extra 15 characters to change the font, plus the characters taken up by the font name... At the end of the day, your signature is only there for easy recognition. It's usually best to keep it fairly simple and then settle upon one and leave it alone (as you can see that Xeno and I have done—I don't think either of us have made significant alteration to our signatures for years, and both of ours have fancy colours and formatting but are well within the 255-character limit). HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:29, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Please don't revert me again

Hi, Cyberpower. I see you have reverted NWA.Rep again, on his own talkpage. The IP who removed a hostile message on the page earlier was obviously NWA himself, editing logged out by mistake. (Why would some random IP perform such an edit?) I stated this in my edit summary when I in turn reverted you. Didn't you see my revert? Or didn't you believe my edit summary? In the latter case, I can't understand why you didn't discuss the matter with me, rather than simply ignore my edit and revert it along with NWA's own.

I believe you did all your edits on that talkpage in good faith, as you seem by your edit summaries and messages to be friendly towards NWA, but if he wants to blank his talkpage and replace the content with a short "rap", then that really is up to him. He's pretty frustrated at not being allowed to keep the page the way he wants it, and has asked me, via e-mail, to revert back (again) to the IP edit (confirming it was his, as if there was ever any doubt). I've done that, and also edited the page to insert line breaks, also on request. Please don't re-revert me, now; I'm only carrying out the page owner's wishes. Regards, Bishonen | talk 01:06, 8 December 2011 (UTC).

My apologies. My intention was not to revert you, which I fail to see how I did. My intention was trying to make NWA feel a little more welcome to Wikipedia since he feels discriminated against. I won't revert anymore. Just pointing out, though, that he is a candidate for ArbCom so if he gets elected to fill one of the eight spots, he shouldn't back down from it. As for the IP user, I failed to make the connection at the time. Oops.—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 01:12, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
That's fine, thanks for taking it well. But, seriously, all you have to do to see how you reverted me, and how I explained about the IP in my edit summary, is to look at his History tab. Five seconds. Please don't edit so fast, especially touchy stuff like this. Bishonen | talk 02:02, 8 December 2011 (UTC).
I did I saw an edit summary of you saying "Come on, that's not fair..." and "Don't edit war me again please." I made the connection about the IP edit after you reverted me. Then you reverted me when I was trying to get his spirits up. However, consider it  Done.—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 02:07, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
