Speedy deletion of Answer Machine Detection
Hello, I wanted to let you know that I declined the speedy deletion of the article because I was unable to find a copyright violation from the URL you provided. The link is a list of items returned from a search and none of the summaries I saw was a close match to the text of the article. In any case, another user has PROD’d the article. —Travistalk 18:19, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- It happens - I made a very similar mistake myself. Cheers —Travistalk 18:59, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

C&C template
"The Empire of the Rising Sun" is the announced third playable faction in the upcoming title of Red Alert 3. Please make sure you have an up-to-date knowledge of these issues before making such large reverts. Information on the upcoming Red Alert 3 can be found on the official Command & Conquer website.
The reason you cited for reverting my edits to the C&C template also was entirely unrelated to well over half of the edits you removed, including the addition of developers and publishers of the franchise, expansion packs previously lacking in the template, and previously unmentioned factions featured in the C&C franchise, among others. Please do not revert large edits of other users without first discussing them on the relevant talk page.
The "three separate universes" vs "main series & spin-offs" debate currently being held on the template's talk page stems from statements made in three separate reliable sources, which have been featured in prominent C&C articles on Wikipedia for months. These are:
- 1) The official Red Alert FAQ by Westwood Studios, used in multiple C&C articles as source material
- 2) The "Kane's Dossier" document, published by the current EALA development team behind Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath, used in the Kane article among others
- 3) The statements of former C&C lead designer Ishmael Isgreen, linked to in the Red Alert article
Please be sure to carefully read all of these, so you are informed about the how and why of this debate. 84.194.32.12 (talk) 10:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- That's alright, your reaction was pretty understandable. For the record, this is my proper Wikipedia account. I decided to come out of anonimity, given the air of controversy which has always seemed to surround this darn C&C template. I suppose when you have a video game franchise which as of 2008 has had six different development teams already, trying to create some measure of consistency isn't an easy thing to do anymore.
- At any rate, the template has been reworked to a large degree, but it isn't perfect yet. If there is anything you think that should be changed about the current revision, be sure to comment on the template's talk page and present your concerns/ideas, alright?
- The only thing that we can't do anymore is return to the template categorizing the C&C games according to "universe" (Tiberium Universe, Red Alert Universe and Generals Universe), because there is more source material saying that this outlook is incorrect, than there is saying that it is correct. I've made a summary on that issue on the template talk page, if you're interested. Kalamrir (talk) 23:45, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
StarCraft Americanisation
If you are going to Americanise one part of the article, can I request that you do so for the rest of it? The article was written in English-English, so I imagine there's more in later sections that should be changed. It's far better to have it as one or the other, rather than having one section in American-English and the rest in British-English. -- Sabre (talk) 17:32, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Warcraft 3 battlechest box and contents.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Warcraft 3 battlechest box and contents.JPG. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.
Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 22:34, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Just to let your know that your recent subtle wiki-joke at Introduction to General Relativity did not go unnoticed. Thanks! Markus Poessel (talk) 21:21, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

No worries
Good god, I need to get off RC for a while. My sincere apologies for that revert; I saw no edit summary for it, and thought that it had been randomly deleted. I see now that you edited that section to move it to another, but I at first misunderstood. When editing sections of articles at a time, remember to try and use an edit summary to prevent users from accidentally thinking that it was a section blank. I have been dealing with a lot of section-blanking today, and mistakenly took your edit for another blank. Again, sorry for the bad revert. Cheers
- No worries, I completely understand. I appreciate your work! Sweetmoose6 (talk) 01:49, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Not guilty
Hello ! On the Hello Kitty page, I see you wrote on 16:34, 2 May 2008: "Reverted to revision 209642301 by Meoneko; Erm." Please don't mistake, the edit I did was not related to that penis episode :D. You changed an edit by someone with IP 88.107.223.198. Thanks for correcting. MeoNeko (talk) 06:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

User:J.delanoy's vandalism reverting secret
I think he/she uses Huggle. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 20:22, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
thanks for the shiny!
I am using huggle, which allows absolutely insane speed. When I first encountered someone using huggle, I had more or less the same reaction you did. For the record, my fingers are not particularly fast, nor is my computer (2.0GHz dual-core processor, 2 GB RAM) nor is my internet connection (5Mb/s downstream, 384 Kb/s upstream) Cheers! J.delanoygabsanalyse 20:25, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- I think the big thing going for me is my downstream speed. Since it is so fast, I can see edits made almost in real time, as they are made. Also, my usual technique while using Huggle (look at diff, if it is not obviously vandalism, move on) can really increase my speed significantly. However, if you want to see the definition of pure, raw, speed, try fighting vandalism when User:DerHexer is on. Suffice it to say that before the throttle on non-admin rollbackers was removed, I was somewhere around 7/10 as fast as he. (estimate based on my general impression of how often he beat me and how often I managed to get the revert on very obvious vandalism) Even now, I can barely keep up with him. He has something in his monobook.js that increases his speed, but I don't yet know enough JavaScript to tell exactly how it works. J.delanoygabsanalyse 20:38, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- I just read your comments on Diligent Terrier's page about VP. My computer has Vista, so VP wouldn't run on it (surprise, surprise) I have seen other people say that Huggle is much better than VP, but I cannot tell from experience. A word of advice if/when you get huggle. TAKE IT SLOW!!!!! I cannot emphasize that enough. I have personally seen 4 users, including myself, start using huggle and make an unbelievable amount of mistakes for the first week or so. Seriously, there is no way to comprehend how powerful that tool is without using it. My recommendation is, go slow for at least a few days until you get a feel for how fast huggle is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by J.delanoy (talk • contribs)
- Im suprise your not using huggle, it is extremly powerful and can be modified ( ive added my own templates, admins can process CSD's in huggle. But I must stress (as above) that many new users attempt to keep up with the edits realtime (thats around 120 edits P/m) and because of this make errors. My advice is take it slow and find your "Break Speed". When you get used to it then you can try to keep up with me, many users think im a bot because I revert in realtime (no mean feat) but it also makes me subject to around a error a day, but I quickly fix that to. My second piece of advice is to setup a dedicated "Recent Changes Error" page like mine User_talk:Prom3th3an/incidents Goodluck and have fun :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Prom3th3an (talk • contribs)

Screenshots from Warcraft
Hey,
I've taken some screenshots of Warcraft III: Frozen Throne. My computer saves these screenshots with some weird extension and I can't reformat them. How did you did this? By the way, I've taken the screenshots from the Night elf campaign where they first spot the statue of Azshara in the Tomb of Sargeras and later when they meet Lady Vashj, Vashj tells how the night elfs transformed into the naga. I've taken a screenshot when they were night elf and when they were naga, perhaps you know them? Mallerd (talk) 21:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
