thanks

thanks for helping if jenova does not help him or worm can you do it?--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:27, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Huh? Can you please clarify what you are talking about?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:29, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

i menat that you can adopt him.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:31, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Hold that thought.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:32, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

aside from that can you help me make talkback things?--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:33, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Just place {{tb|{{SUBST:REVISIONUSER}}|optional linked section|ts=~~~~~}}.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:37, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

i do not understand.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:40, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Copy what you see in the code font and paste it on a user's talkpage replacing "optional linked section" with the name of the section which in this case is "thanks". Try it on my page.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:42, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

The problem is that this that looks like an l i can not make it because its not on the keyboard.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:45, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Huh? Are you on a phone?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:47, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

no.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:49, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

What are you using?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:58, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

A COMPUTER.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 21:59, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

What keyboard are you using? Every keyboard has it.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:01, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)The | mark is just above your enter key. You have to hold down the shift key while pressing it. It is called a "piping key". Not used in Windows much. Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 22:04, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

WOW! I DID NOT NOTICE! THANKS!--184.157.13.121 (talk) 22:06, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Glad I could help a little. I like to stalk on other editor's pages. It makes them nervous ;) Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 22:08, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

OK SECOND THING I NEED HELP WITH MAKEing new signatures like cyberpowers.--184.157.13.121 (talk) 22:10, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

My signature is too sophisticated to be copied. On top of that, you need an account to have your own signature.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:31, 17 April 2012 (UTC))

You need to get an account first. I'm confident that cyberpower can walk you through the whole process. Piece of cake :) Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 22:12, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

i made one.--Superman6789 (talk) 22:15, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

can you show me whats next?--Superman6789 (talk) 22:17, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

My signature has a high level of sophistication so that won't be such a good start. How do you want it to look?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:31, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

WP:CUSTOMSIG#Customizing_your_signature is an article that can explain it much better than either Cyber or myself. It should answer all your questions. Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 22:22, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
i need a step-to-step walktrough.--Superman6789 (talk) 22:27, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- Just open up two browser windows, one with the article, the other one with the settings. I'm not very experienced with fancy sigs, to be honest, so I'm not the one to help. Now, your piping keys, those I know. I use those every day on my Linux servers.... 22:29, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

I will help him through. What do you want your sig to look like? My signature is too sophisticated to start with as it draws it from User:Cyberpower678/Signature which draws it from User:Cyberpower678/SaH which defines which signature to use (standard on being User:Cyberpower678/SignatureStandard) and then User:Cyberpower678/Statussig which indicates my online status. (It looks simple on the outside but hit the edit button and you shall see what lies behind it.)—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:41, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

did you block me?--Superman6789 (talk) 23:02, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

No. I am incapable of doing that as I am not an administrator. According to this, you haven't been blocked at all. How would you like your signature to look?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 23:06, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

with how many edits i done.--Superman6789 (talk) 23:20, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

You're not making any sense. I thought you wanted me to help out with your signature. Do you want my help or do you want to start editing Wikipedia.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 23:23, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

i menat that i need a signuture that shows how many edits i done.--Superman6789 (talk) 00:52, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

That's not possible to do. Sorry. Any other ideas?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 01:40, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

than how did you make your signutaure look like it?--Superman6789 (talk) 11:59, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Look like what? There is no such function for what you are asking. If you mean my old signature, that's a total number of edits ever made to Wikipedia.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 12:03, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Please note that Superman is a sockpuppet of User:Walter55024. B music ian 13:05, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the note.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 13:14, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

No good deed goes unpunished. Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 13:20, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

uhh...thanks.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 13:30, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Didn't mean to rain on your parade. I thought the amount of patience and time you devoted was exceptional and noteworthy, sorry it turned out to be a sock. Dennis Brown (talk) (contrib) 17:36, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. I kind of figured at this point as this user was making no sense.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 17:40, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Huggle

Hey, Cyberpower, I was thinking of installing Huggle to help me revert vandalism, as I've seen you use it in the past. What are the advantages over me just using recent changes with Twinkle and rollback?--Gilderien Talk|Contribs 20:07, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

It's about ten times faster and the Q button reverts and warns making everyone's a whole lot easier.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 20:40, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Ah, I wasn't aware it could do that. Is that multiple edits with one click? I thought there were rate throttles against that sort of thing. Anyway, I'll install it about now.--Gilderien Talk|Contribs 19:21, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Q reverts the edit made and warns the user at the same time and R just reverts the edit. That program runs off of using shortcuts so it makes things a lot easier and quicker. It automatically reports to AIV after the 4th warning.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 19:43, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

I installed it. It doesn't seem to have saved anywhere, though. Also, new tool!--Gilderien Talk|Contribs 12:16, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

New tool which says you both hang out at my page!

Worm^TT · (talk) 12:18, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

We just love you Worm.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 13:31, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Sig

I noticed you changed your sig. It still looks super. You still breaching the 255 limit or has the removal of numbers brought it down? I notice how you have your status under your talkpage link, and was wondering how you got it under the sub? MrLittleIrish^(talk) 13:30, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

My sig conforms to norms. Can you read wikimarkup especially complicated markup? If so start with User:Cyberpower678/Signature and go from there.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 13:52, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Not especially. I don't want my sig to change, I just want a link to my contribs underneath my talk link. Any help? MrLittleIrish^(talk)_(contribs) 14:11, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Oh. I modified your last signed post as a suggestion of what you can do.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 14:23, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

cough - MrLittleIrish ^(talk)_(contribs) - but it's 300chars Worm^TT · (talk) 14:17, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

MrLittleIrish ^(talk)_(contribs) is what I'm looking at. Maybe I can create a re-direct for my user and talk page to shrink the sig? MrLittleIrish^(talk) 14:24, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Be sure to register that account before you make the redirect as to avoid any possible conflicts.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 14:26, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

There's always - Mr little irish ^talk_contrib - That's under the magic number :) Worm^TT · (talk) 14:28, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Not a big fan of that one to be fair... darnit.... MrLittleIrish^(talk) 14:31, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Feel free to mozey on over to my sig area if you want to make some suggestions ;) Worm^TT · (talk) 14:33, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm over there now. MrLittleIrish^(talk) 14:44, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Counter Vandilism Unit

I notice you often update Template:Vandalism information and that you are a BOT operator. WP:CVU is being reorganized and there is a discussion at WT:Counter-Vandalism Unit#Task Force. Basically, it might be useful to have a CVU "Task Force" which would be a list of people willing to be notified when vandalism levels are high and assistance is needed. Ideally it would be something a user could react to, such as a talk page message that would trigger the "new messages" template, which would be better than having to proactively check the {{tl:Vandalism_information}} level template transcluded somewhere. Could you take a look and comment? Thanks. Mojoworker (talk) 18:00, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm currently take time off from Wikipedia but I'll take a look. I'm also writing a bot that will update the vandalism template too.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 18:26, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for commenting. Is such a BOT something you would be interested in creating or at least maybe offering some assistance? I haven't looked into the BOT creation process—how difficult is it? How long do you anticipate your Wikibreak to last—I see it says indefinite... Is it related to your "Death Spiral" post at AN? I hope not. Remember that 99% of the users of Wikipedia are just here to consume content and are never aware of the drama that goes on behind the scenes. It's sad that there's rampant incivility here amongst some editors and it's sad when a user such as Fastily is driven off, but most editors are indeed civil and willing to work in a collegial manner. Anyway, if you're willing to help, it would be appreciated. Thanks. Mojoworker (talk) 20:44, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

If such a bot is needed, I am willing to make it. I'm not sure how long my Wikibreak will be for but, I am still programming while I'm on it. Writing bots isn't too difficult. The rest I replied to in an e-Mail.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 20:55, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

OK. Thanks. We'll see how the discussion progresses, and feel free to participate there further. Perhaps it could be an additional feature of the {{vandalism information}} updater BOT you are currently developing, that would also post to the talk pages of the Task Force members when the level got to some trigger point. If it's something you feel like doing and you are enjoying programming, then great, if not, don't get sucked into doing something you don't want to do. I don't know VB, but I do know C#, so if I can help, let me know. In re: your email—I don't know why, but I think that's a fairly common theme around here. Maybe it's partly because Wikipedia can be such a huge time sink. I don't know if that's applicable to you, but I know it is for me sometimes, so moderation in all things is probably a good policy. When it ceases to be enjoyable, then it's time to go do something that's more fun. Take care, and enjoy your break. Mojoworker (talk) 21:33, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

Your Closure

I do not understand why & how you closed [1]. Looks premature to me. Arguments? Please redo, at least. -DePiep (talk) 23:53, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

It was a clear cut case and I, who was uninvolved in this situation closed it in favor of the community consensus. You of all people should know standard procedure here which leads me to believe that this account is compromised.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 00:42, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Despicable try. We both enjoy your absence. -DePiep (talk) 01:12, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

The fact that someone disagrees with you is not an excuse to open an ANI about their account being compromised. Ryan Vesey Review me! 01:21, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

@DePiep: I'll try and not take that as a personal attack against me.

@Ryan Vesey: It's not possible for me to have had any disagreements with this user because have not had any interactions with this user until now. I only based my conclusion off of what I was seeing at AN. I naturally assumed that he would have knowledge of policy by know being that he has been editing here for 7 years now.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:06, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

The point is that Cyberpower678 both closed the discussion and declined the reopening. Glad to expalin theat to any of you. Now go ride your tricycle, I've adjusted the extra sidewheels. -DePiep (talk) 02:17, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I must ask that you please stop with your personal attacks of I will report you.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:20, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

You judged on your own conclusion. Noone else was involved. No go report me. (If it is about the extra wheels, I can retake them. Please say so then). -DePiep (talk) 02:25, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I fail to see what you are trying to accomplish here. An editor has raised concern about User:AGK, all vote in favor of this user except for you. I close it because everyone but you agree with the actions of the admin and agree that it was standard procedure. You go and try and re-open it with a sub-thread, you got an immediate no and I declined to reopen a clear cut case, you follow it up with a comment to my talkpage where came to the conclusion because, what I believe, an experienced editor that has worked in a variety of places here for 7 years and with 30,000 edits now being disruptive and doesn't know standard procedure, that this user's account is compromised and should be blocked out of caution, note that I am still neutral about this. I only asked for an opinion and it was closed by my mentor and you responded by posting a personal attack against me, making me feel unwelcome here, where I then explained my rationale for the posting at AN and you respond with yet another personal attack where I then asked you to stop. Now exactly what are you trying to achieve here.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:35, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Wrong. As I wrote, I came by to say goodbye, there. Then I noticed you declined while you are the original decider. Nothing personal, just don't behave Napoleon. I can take that reporting. -DePiep (talk) 02:42, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Whatever.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:44, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Again: You judged on your own conclusion. Noone else was involved. No go report me. Or delete this thread -- after all, it's your talk-page. -DePiep (talk) 02:50, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I could be wrong, DePiep, but I don't think Cyberpower678 wants to discuss this with you any more. Please find some other place to discuss it. Thank you. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:54, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Demiurge is correct. I do not wish to discuss this anymore but just don't know how to say without sounding uncivil. I'm trying to be patient here but you are driving my patience to a very thin point and quite frankly, I'm trying to be on a Wikibreak. Demiurge, thanks for the award. I'll put it on my user page first thing tomorrow.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:59, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

The Bonaparte Award

	The Bonaparte Award
	For keeping your head when repeatedly accused of leading the armies of France to subdue and dominate the entirety of Europe. (And other things.) --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:52, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Wow. Just wow. I hope your break goes well and that you return when you feel refreshed. I would do the same if I was in your shoes. *Returns to the world of philosophy to finish a 7 page paper* --Guerillero | My Talk 04:13, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Cyberbot I

Cyberbot I (talk · contribs) appears to have started doing the "Updating readiness of bot" editing again. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 10:21, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Is that really a bad thing? It does it every 2 hours. It allows me to see if the bot is operating or not.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 11:07, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

It violates bot best practices in that it is a pointless waste of server resources. Save the log on your own machine, and then you can update it as often as you would like. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:02, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say with your second sentence.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 02:08, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, cyberpower. Reaper means you could just write to a local file (e.g. on the server) to indicate if the bot is still alive. I think if it's not actually connected to a task the bot is doing, it's not very useful. More of a concern than using up resources would be clogging up the bot's contributions page. It's not really a big deal, but neither is it the best way to achieve what it aims, and you did assure us previously that you had stopped it from doing that. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 19:32, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

For the purposes of the trial I believe however, I would like to see on wiki if the bot was still alive. Is there any alternative to doing that. I could check on toolserver to see if the bot were alive but, that's so much of a hassle considering I mainly access Wikipedia through my iPad, and rarely get on my computer these days.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 19:37, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Well I'm not really overly familiar with the toolserver, but could you not just set up a web page which the bot can write to? - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 20:06, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I don't have a server to host the page on to allow the bot to write on.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 20:09, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Where are you running the bot from? — Isarra ༆ 20:18, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Uh, toolserver.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 20:24, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Ah, I see. Well there are still plenty of alternatives, but I can understand if you don't have the time to implement any at the moment. At the least, though, could you set it to only do this once a day? Since that is how often the task runs. I don't think the understanding at the BRfA was that it would only be turned off during the trial, but perhaps I read it slightly differently from you. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 20:29, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

I don't have access to toolserver at this time so I can't do it right now. I'll change it when I get to it. As for that BRFA, it seems I may have worded it incorrectly.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 20:31, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Sure, no hurry. Thanks, - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 20:33, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Unrelated to the above, would you mind removing your comment on my talk page. I understand that you don't mean anything by it, and were just aiming to make a friendly comment/congratulations on resolving the dispute, but it's not come across at all well to me, I'm afraid. Don't remove it if you don't want to, but I would appreciate it if you did. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 20:43, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Sorry. I felt that had to be said. I was watching you two beat each other up I felt it had to come to end soon either by me reporting or by you too making up. I'm glad it was the latter. Sure I'll remove it.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 20:46, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Thank you again. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 20:50, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Going offline again to resume my wikibreak. I may be back tomorrow for election day. Which reminds me of a signature I made for that that I completely forgot about. :P—cyberpower ^Chat_{Temporarily Online} 20:53, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Wikibreak

You are on a WIKIBREAK! Don't come back until your Wikibreak is over. MrLittleIrish ^(talk) © 10:46, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

678s a Wikiholic I gess. Yash t 101 10:53, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

It's hard to keep clear. I am always tempted to look at my watchlist every once and a while and I see something that really catches my attention. I initially said to watch my talk page but I can't ignore getting pinged. Wikipedia is a passion of mine Nd enjoy editing backstages a lot.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 12:59, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

You should consider asking an Admin to block you for the duration of your break. MrLittleIrish ^(talk) © 14:06, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Rubbish. A wikibreak can mean different things to different people, there is no requirement that he stops editing for the duration. What if he was on a wikibreak from drama - or a reduced access wikibreak. I'd suggest you stop worrying about how other editors define their editing and get on and do something useful. Worm^TT · (talk) 14:14, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

My Wikibreak tends to be a severely reduced access to editing Wikipedia. There are times that I occasionally make myself online during the break. I do have a Wikibreak enforcer on my page that will prevent me editing completely with my account until time is expired.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 14:24, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

My Edits

I'm sorry man.... I know better than that. I won't do it again, and I'm following the rules. Bigshowandkane64 (talk) 21:19, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Because you admitted to your actions straight up, I won't report you for either socking or edit warring.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 23:26, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm not going to do any of that stuff, because I'm a good person. I just made a mistake that's all I did. Bigshowandkane64 (talk) 23:33, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

These changes are more beneficial than I initially saw. And also, you did not have to revert everything I did particularly when some of the things I did had nothing to do with the reverting and was general cleanup of the page. Do not revert anything or anyone on that article, again, regarding sections or anything else or I will report you for edit warring.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:06, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

To clarify, Bigshowandkane64 had a valid idea that was done in good faith. Just because I initially thought "Hmm, this doesn't look right" does not mean you have to follow suit. We should be organizing the article by the 4 series rather than by where the hell Ash is during any particular season.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:10, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

I believe region wise is important too. Threats aren't necessary. I listen to advice and improve on it. I wasn't following your tracks. The user was majorly reformatting the page. I believe such changes should be discussed on the article's talk page first so we don't have this problem to start with. Discussing this couldn't have hurt on all sides.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 00:23, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Organizing it by regions is not how we should be treating it as writers of an encyclopedia. We should organize the article by things that have happened in the real world, and not by things that have happened in the fictional world. It is not relevant to the readers as to which season takes place in what part of the Pokémon world in a table of the different seasons and numbers of episodes when we cover that information in the sections higher up on the page.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:40, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Fine with me. Work your magic. I need to do other things.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 00:48, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Consider this me officially chastising you in my capacity as an admin for that edit warring. You know better than that. You say you believe such changes should be discussed first...keep in mind that it's always an option for you to start the discussion and not edit war (a particularly good guideline for this is WP:BRD). Ks0stm ^{(T•C•G•E)} 00:38, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

My mentality is currently affected with outside issues which is why I am on this Wikibreak in the first place. I need to let things cool down here first before I really want to get back to editing. I am however quite aware of what I did wrong today and my actions warrant a 24h block.—cyberpower ^Chat_Absent 00:48, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Did you even hear what I said Ryulong. I said I wasn't going to do that anymore. I'm not going to use my IP address anymore, I learned my lesson now to do that anymore. I just like the way the format is now on the Pokemon Anime page, it's much better like that. Bigshowandkane64 (talk) 20:05, 27 April 2012 (UTC) Sorry Cyberpower678 I wasn't talking to you. I was just talking to Ryulong. Bigshowandkane64 (talk) 20:05, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Typo

I corrected what appeared to by a typo by yourelf here. Hope this is ok. Regards Basalisk ^{inspect damage}⁄_berate 15:35, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Pokémon the Movie: Black—Victini and Reshiram and White—Victini and Zekrom

I own this on DVD and Viz Media distributed this on DVD and Amazon.com backs me up and I added it as a source. Swifty*^talk 17:43, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Then add it as an additional distributor to Cinedigm.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 18:03, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Okay they should be combined then. Both are US so I posted them as Cinedigm/Viz Media (US) so that all country distribution studios are together. Swifty*^talk 18:29, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Works for me.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 18:33, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Temporarily unavailable?

"Links to the blueprints are temporarily unavailable. Please do not remove the links as they will be online again." That was nine months ago. Isn't it about time to remove the links? Cresix (talk) 17:59, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

I completely forgot about those things. That was back when I was inexperienced. I didn't know policy very well back then and I server to host the blueprints on outside of Wikipedia.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 18:04, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Tact

[2] I'm sure it's unintentional, but if you can't make comments without a modicum of empathy, just don't. Jenks24 (talk) 20:36, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

I do feel what Rich is going through which is why I let him know that he may be facing a ban and he should prepare for the possibility that he may not be allowed to edit anymore. I do mean well for Rich and have stated to him earlier that I wish for the best for him.20:52, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

I understand that, but Rich is obviously following the case and doesn't need updates from you (or anyone else) about how badly it's going. I appreciate the follow up note you left there. Jenks24 (talk) 21:17, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

VPT reversion

When you did some edit to the WP:VPT, your edit wiped out the rest of the page (I'm guessing you had an edit conflict and you copy-pasted the section you were replying in). Be careful when this happens. --MASEM (t) 21:05, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

For some reason, when using my iPad, I don't get the edit conflict screen and it just overwrites the conflicting edits.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:22, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

What are you doing??

[3] --NeilN ^{talk to me} 21:05, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Edit conflict mistake. From my watchlist, I saw someone rollbacking my edit so I assumed misclick and immediately reverted it. I didn't stop to think that I had wiped out WP:VPT in the process.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:20, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Well, if you'd wiped out the change which caused all the activity on VPT I'm sure people would be cheering :-) --NeilN ^{talk to me} 22:26, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

There was clear consensus to implement it. Where was everybody when it was being discussed. Quite frankly, I like these changes. Makes it easier for me to see the revisions I haven't seen yet.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 22:28, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Signature

I just saw this. My signature isn't that recognizable, is it?--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 18:56, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

With that comment, I assume you look at my contributions. Depends on the person looking at it. Your setup at first glance makes me think Gilderien. So, yes, I think it's that recognizable.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 19:00, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Here is it where it renders to: Cyberpower ^{How can I help?}

I saw on my watchlist that you had self-reverted accidentally removing comments, and had seen on your talk page the problems you had had with your iPad and edit-conflicts, so I checked your last few contribs to make sure you hadn't accidentally missed one, and was pleasantly surprised to see my signature on your April Fools list, as I am not particularly active on talkpages and my signature is not as instantly recognizable as, say, Pedro's or yours. :-) --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 19:15, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I just noticed that the April fools sig changes every time you look at it. That's pretty neat. _{Isn't the transclusion a violation of WP:SIG though? Or is it just that you haven't subst: 'ed it this time?}--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 19:17, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Actually that's just a transclusion. I'm only allowed to substitute signatures. Therefore it signs differently, everytime I sign it. People on my Wikifriends list, that have distinct signatures will typically have their sig copied and added to my list. You can access it by consistently using {{SUBST:User:Cyberpower678/Signature||AprilFools}}—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 19:26, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

please observe interaction request

When an editor request you cease interaction with them in user space it's most polite to cease interaction unless there's a compelling reason to do otherwise. Nobody Ent 14:29, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm not interacting with this user anymore and am thinking about retracting every communication currently on her page and the adoption page.

If I were you I would leave well enough alone and not make any more changes to her pages. GB fan 15:34, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

You're probably right. After letting my emotions calm down, I too think it's best to let it go.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 16:33, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Yes, that's the best route. She acknowledged our good faith in responding so I don't take it as a negative if she'd rather get a later answer from WTT than a more timely one from somebody else. Nobody Ent 18:33, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

Advice

Hope you don't mind some constructive advice. But I saw this edit on my watch list[4]. You removed a misplaced edit that belonged on the talk page of the intended user, not the actual user page. That's good, but if you're going to do that, it's a good idea to take it a step farther. There are two things you could have done. You could have transfered the message over to the target users talk page. Or you could have left a message on the posting users talk page explaining what he did wrong. He appears to have very few edits, so he probably doesn't know the difference between the pages, and probably won't see the edit summary. Going that extra step can be a big deal in helping to actually solve problems. Regards.--Cube lurker (talk) 21:10, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Tyanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind next time.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:16, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

~~Actually I intentionally did neither of those things to give you the chance to go ahead and do one of the two. If you don't want to I'll finish it off, but I though you might like the opportunity.~~--Cube lurker (talk) 21:31, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Nevermind, just saw you moved the comment. thanks.--Cube lurker (talk) 21:32, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

No problem.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:34, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you!

	Helpful Hero
	Thanks a lot for rolling back the AGF edit I had done- the bot had rolled back the edit a couple seconds before me and I missed that! Thanks! -Ax10m77- (talk) 16:22, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you.—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 02:29, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Closing this

I m confused that where did he state that he has withdrawn? →TheSpecialUser^Talk_{Contributions}* 16:28, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

He removed his admin nomination from the main page.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 16:31, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

No they did not. Monty ₈₄₅ 16:32, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Okay, but when and where? →TheSpecialUser^Talk_{Contributions}* 16:34, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Yea I just realized that I misread the diff of him adding it when I wanted to link to him removing it. I have revered myself. Sorry guys.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 16:36, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

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.

ANI thread - you've made a crucial error

You've linked to the wrong "user banned" diff. And it's a completely different kind of thread, to the extent I thought you were a 9/11 conspriacy loon. Means that people like me who don't check out everything, just the "big money thing" are gonna get TOTALLY the wrong idea about you. I'd fix it ASAP mate! (You also didn't sign it, but that doesn't really matter) Egg Centri c 01:39, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

hehe, that was quite amusing. you seem to have a bloody good case, just looking at everything now. I hope you don't mind I've removed all my "contributions" to that thread as the refactoring is no longer needed and the struck out stuff is pointless and hasn't been there long enough to be needed for it. Cheers, Egg Centri c 01:47, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up about the diff.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 01:49, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Amy

At this point the most helpful thing we can do is stay off her talk page and let WTT try to talk her down from the cliff. Nobody Ent 20:59, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

I was about to say the same thing. I'm not planning on showing up onto her talk page again until worm has worked through this with her. I don't feel like I can be useful anymore. Ryan Vesey Review me! 00:02, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

My comments are currently towards Dream Focus as he is making unusual claims about me.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 00:11, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

If you have concerns about what Dream Focus is saying about you why don't you take it to Dream Focus's talk page? We all know that Amy does not like long drawn out conversations on her talk page. GB fan 00:15, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Everyone but me. I don't know Amy very well. That's yet another fact I learned about her although, I'm seriously considering if Wikipedia is the right place for her.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 00:23, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Cyberpower, as a personal favour to me, can you please unwatch Amy's page? I know you mean well, but I asked at least once that people didn't reply to Dream Focus at that page, and you've just made things more difficult. Worm^TT · (talk) 07:14, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

I've already said what I needed to say there and tod Dream Focus to continue discussions on my page but,

Done. Probably better this way.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 15:41, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Jimbo

Though I love it, the head is little creepy and distracting. →TheSpecialUser^Talk_{Contributions}* 16:19, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

And?—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 16:22, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Nothing (just a silly mistake). →TheSpecialUser^Talk_{Contributions}* 16:25, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

So what do want me to do?—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 16:31, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

It is not that I want you to remove it, but it distracts the editor whoever is typing something and may be little troublesome (I had little problem while typing this comment). In the end its your talk page so wont force but just informed. →TheSpecialUser^Talk_{Contributions}* 16:33, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Actually, I think it would be best to remove User:Cyberpower678/Layout from your edit notice and replace it with User:Cyberpower678/StandardLayout. While I think it is alright to have the Jimbo peak your page, I do agree that it is very distracting when trying to formulate a comment so it shouldn't be in your edit notice. Ryan Vesey Review me! 16:37, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

if it's distracting them, that's their problem. It's not disruptive so I am allowed to have it. Those that are typing can choose to look at it if they want to. It's not Ike they're being forced to look at it.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 16:39, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Wow, I didn't expect a response like that. They are forced to look at it, it shoves itself right into their field of vision. I also find it very disruptive since I can barely keep track of the argument I'm trying to make. The part that I find most disruptive is the fact that you would insist on having it in your edit notice. Why is having it on your talk page only not enough? Ryan Vesey Review me! 16:42, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Whoops. I didn't see your previous suggestion. Probably because it wasn't there when I loaded the page. Fair enough. I'll shift it to Standard Layout.—cyberpower ^Chat_{Limited Access} 17:02, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the cooperation! I didn't realize you were responding to TheSpecialUser and not to me. Ryan Vesey Review me! 20:34, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Funny how that happens sometimes and a total miscommunication arises from it.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 20:40, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Editing this page

It may be just my browser, but the "wikifirend/huggle/mentoring" notice appears twice on the edit screen. Also, on an unrelated note, how do you update WikiDefcon from inside Huggle?--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 20:49, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

It's your browser and you can't update the Defcon from Huggle.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 21:00, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Bot infobox

How does it help? It just gets in the way for me. Rcsprinter (gossip) 20:07, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

It gets in the way for you but not for anyone else. If you want to make changes like that, get consensus by starting a discussion. If there is consensus for it, I will back down.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 20:10, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Perhaps it could be an optional thing then you can turn it off on the userpage when you don't want it. Rcsprinter (tell me stuff) 20:42, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Installing the switch to have the option to remove it through the parameters does not need consensus as it makes no major change. Would you like to me implement that?—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 20:46, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Done Rcsprinter (talk) 20:02, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
