64.78.164.226
Thank you for catching that bit of vandalism. User:64.78.164.226 is probably a sockpuppet of User:24.224.217.39, an attention-starved type of vandal. His m.o. is to mess around with an article until a r.c. patroller posts a warning, he will then proceed to harrass or attempt to impersonate that editor. Once blocked, he will try to provoke others by posting immature taunts (key themes being pedantry and pedophilia) on his talk page until it is protected. If you encounter a similar pattern of editing in the next few days it might save some time and trouble to not warn that vandal at all, just report it to WP:AIV & request talk page protection. ˉˉanetode╞┬╡ 03:49, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
My User page
Thanks for your quick reversion of the vandalism on my userpage. Seems it was an acquaintance of mine, not logged in. But tell me, where do I get the popups tool you used; must I download anything? — Garykirk | talk! 20:23, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
- You're welcome. The popups tool is at Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups. -- Gogo Dodo 20:28, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Alegoo92 edits
The edits on Alegoo92 are okay; that user is my friend and he told me to edit his page so I played a joke on him. Sorry.-Andrewia 03:53, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- I see. Well, please be careful with your joke edits. It can easily be construed as vandalism. -- Gogo Dodo 04:01, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Another round of thanks
Thank you for cleaning up all the vandalism to my subpages! I was out for the day and was surprised to see that User:61.95.37.225 had taken such an interest :) Ziggurat 23:41, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

The AfD doesn't make any sense
Perhaps you can shed light on what is going on at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of food topics. --Transhumanist 20:49, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- What appears to be going on is a vigorous discussion on the merits of the AfD. If you meant "Why did you vote Delete?" I voted delete because I thought that the topic was too vague and was going to become unmaintainable. See the discussion on the AfD. -- Gogo Dodo 01:32, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you!

This user has been re-vandalising, and a recent block seems to have expired. I think he should be re-banned, but I don't know how to. Can you tell me how to, or do I have to be an admin? -Wser 09:24, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- An admin needs to do the block, but anybody can report a vandal that needs blocking. You can report them at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. However, I recently discovered ARV, which does the reporting semi-automatically for you. Very handy. -- Gogo Dodo 16:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

I cannot seem to contact you, but I would just like to vent my anger by editing your user page. How dare you revert my comments on the user: DVokes. I am that very user, but I cannot sign in because of a locked password.
HOW DARE YOU. I hope you are ashamed of your actions. 88.110.18.87 21:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Moved from user page: Why won't you tell me why you reverted my article? Do you have a problem with British people? If you do, I would just like to say that the kid in me who used to read science fiction back in the 1980s is pretty delighted to see someone say with full sincerity that we've got to do something about all the bots and semi-bots running around alphabetizing everything. This is the future we created. 88.110.18.87 22:20, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- No probs. I didn't copy this one over as it seems to be fairly clear at this point that it was simple vandalism (see his/her talk page, and mine too) - the second half comes from User:Ziggurat/People, and I have no idea why they decided to copy that bit over. Ziggurat 07:31, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Lilo & Stitch
Just to alert you to the fact that the article List of experiments from Lilo & Stitch has had considerable edits by IP user 202.131.178.153 who also removed the AfD template. I've replaced the template (although consensus seems to be forming for "Keep") and warned the user. Don't know whether their edits are accurate (it's not my speciality) but maybe worth checking. -- MightyWarrior 10:10, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Edit to Hollow Earth
I tried to change the word "eclectic" to "eccentric" to describe Teeds, the cult leader. I don't think this is nonsense, I think the word eclectic, as in "coming from many sources" was used accidentally, and what was meant was "eccentric" as in strange or unusual.(This is in reference to the Hollow Earth article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_earth —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.242.21.132 (talk • contribs)

Vandal?
Tell me, how does one vandalize graffiti? (Please forgive me if the talk isn't in the proper format, I've just started to take an active role in Wikipedia.)The simple matter is that you cannot have what you claim to be a completely open project - freely edited by anyone for any reason - and an honest encyclopedia. This project wouldn't concern me in the slightest if not for the fact that people are beginning to use it as a genuine source for information. Wikipedia now faces an important choice. It can either insist on very high quality articles, buttressed by sources, verifications, and all of the other accoutrements of any other scholarly pursuit; or it can remain true to its supposed gospel of freedom of expression in the form of definitive looking encyclopedia entries. Except that there is not freedom for all - as evidenced by your recent threat of banishment from the proud ranks of Wikipedians. (Though it should be clear that I would never accept that title even in a moment of levity.) Who are you to say that my interpretation of a particular entry is incorrect? Who are you to impose your views on my entries? Granted, as a user, you should have the same freedom as I to change my entries as I might change another's. That is acceptable. Using administrative priviliges to ban me on a supposedly free endeavor is not.
So I shall continue on performing acts of what you deem vandalism. Destroy this account if you feel that you must, another will rise up. Others already have. Nor should you believe that I act out of a childish boredom or desire for entertainment. I do not. I have a job outside of policing a fanciful would-be reference source that I take quite seriously. Indeed, the only thing that I take more seriously is the free flow of information. I believe that Wikipedia may have started out of similar beliefs. I say similar, not identical, because there is an important difference between the free flow of simply information, and the free flow of correct information. One is essential for the growth of any information based society, for the improvement of its citizens, of the carrying on of the precious flame of human knowledge that even now sees the dark creeping ever closer. The other is the blackest of the night. I feel that I must fight, that I must do something, even if it is quietly changing dates in the dark, altering sentences, or borrowing entire articles. Anything to further reduce the accuracy of this on the fence abomination so that anyone who attempts to use it as anything more than a highly suspect branching off point to genuine knowledge finds themselves quickly and forcefully rebuked. Nor do I intend to scribble alone in this night. I would hope that anyone who happens upon this - the few moments before it too falls victim to the same censorship that will claim the account that spawned it - will change just one article. Or one article each day. More than hoping, however, I will build relationships through this screen and outside of it to ensure that the dark passages of this mine of ignorance find, from time to time, people with headlamps bumping into one another.

- I believe your contributions to Wikipedia speak for itself. I have no wish to debate you about your opinions on the quality of Wikipedia. Please take your debate somewhere else. -- Gogo Dodo 06:47, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
It's hardly the quality that I take offense to, it's the nature of Wikipedia. The quality of something is an outgrowth of its nature, and the nature of this project is one doomed to endlessly poor quality. Again, this wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact that it's begun to draw attention as a serious reference work. If only Wikipedia would post a prominent disclaimer on each page that the content is not verified and should be taken, at best, on entertainment value. Perhaps change the name from, "The Free Encyclopedia". Dare I dream, maybe it could limit itself to popular culture and leave out any serious entries. If any of these, though the last two are admittedly unlikely, took place there would be no need for a conflict. Africanus 13:32, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of article (or lack thereof)
Yes, I know he's created several, and I actually deleted one myself (as an attack page). Believe me when I say I understand your frustration. However, that single article (considered by itself) was not patent nonsense and could potentially have been a poorly-written badly POV article about a real event. My guess was that it wasn't anything we wanted, but the whole point of speedy deletions is that if there's any potential doubt, having more eyes on the subject is a good thing.
If he is recreating content that was deleted after community review, then I would be willing to delete new articles on the same subject as recreation of deleted content; but I'm not comfortable removing the subject entirely without some kind of community consensus. Not that I'm objecting to how it's been handled by others (I probably won't even look), I'm just explaining how I personally interpret what policy says I should do. -- SCZenz 22:08, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

re: Southern California ZIP Codes AfD
I closed the AFD, so you can now follow the procedures at WP:MM. There is actually no formal voting like AFD. You have two options when merging the pages: if you are sure that something should be merged, you can be bold and do so. If the merge is controversial however, and could be reverted immediately, then you can tag the proposal with merge tags, and the discussion would take place at the article's talk page. Please read Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages for full information. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 22:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yes it seems like a "potential hot button issue", especially what you said on the AFD page, that it probably involves a case on RFAR. Good luck. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 22:33, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism or not?
Hi, I've deleted the two pages, at your request. I've been looking at the apparently new accounts, with a view to blocking any that was a vandal account. I generally block indefinitely if it's a registered account engaging in vandalism, unless it's an established user who just does something childish on one occasion.
I know nothing about Toraka, so, while I blocked Blindrage03 (talk · contribs) without hesitation, as the vandalism was obvious. I also blocked Kypriss (talk · contribs). I hesitate over Wesker002 (talk · contribs). On a quick glance, TundraX (talk · contribs) does not seem to be a vandal. If you can give me any assurances that these accounts are definitely vandal accounts, I'll happily block, but I haven't time at the moment to look into them myself. Thanks for watching out for vandalism and hoaxes. Cheers. AnnH ♫ 23:20, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

User page reverts
Thanks for reverting my user page at User:Bookgrrl.

And how did you spot the vandalism so quickly? --Bookgrrl 15:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I work with Gabriel Koerner, and consider him a friend. He liked the "seven feet tall" thing, especially since he's about 5'6". We were just talking about this mysterous person who cleans up his page. Now we know.
Thanks! Geoff and Gabe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.92.221.226 (talk • contribs)

The edit was inadvertant. I was following a trail backwards from the Gabriel Koerner page, and must have hit a button by accident. My apologies!

Can I ask another question as you are more familiar with Wikipedia than me? There is another Samir Arora than the one I wrote about. Look here:http://www.blonnet.com/iw/2003/08/17/stories/2003081700640600.htm. Since both have investment activities and could be confused I was wondering whether to build a lead page with directions. But on the other hand "the other Samir Arora" should not be as important enough to get a Wikipedia article. What is your oppinion? --Peter Eisenburger 08:13, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
A Google serach for "the other Samir Arora" shows some entries but they kinda fade 3 years ago. I wasn't planning an article. And having read the introduction of the disambiguation guide it says "what article would they realistically be expecting to view as a result?" I think within the scope of Wikipedia it has now Wikipedia visitors would only expect the ex-NETO CEO. --Peter Eisenburger 09:28, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Cook Islands Vandalism / Racism
Users: 74.12.145.196 (Azn sam8 ?) keep reverting the Survivor: Cook Islands article in ways that appear to be racist (the Rarotonga - Caucasian American tribe are always changed back to being on top) and inserting capitals that have been changed to lower case more than once. Could you block the offending user or protect the page please?
Current vandalised revision:
On a September 4th issue of TV Guide, the names of the 4 tribes were revealed: Aitutaki (Hispanics-RED), Rarotonga (Caucasians-BLUE), Manihiki (Africans-YELLOW) and Puka Puka (Asians-YELLOW). All four tribes are named after the many islands in the nation .[4]. AND STOP EDITTING THIS PARAGRAPH!!!!

Dear Gogo Dodo Please stop reverting my paragraph
Hey Gogo Dodo,
I've finally caught up to the person that has been constantly editting the paragraph that I personally put in. Prior to any of your changes, my original contribution and work to wikipedia was as follows:
"On a September 4th issue of TV Guide, the names of the 4 tribes were revealed: Aitutaki (Hispanics-RED), Rarotonga (Caucasians-BLUE), Manihiki (Africans-YELLOW) and Puka Puka (Asians-GREEN). All four tribes are named after the many islands in the nation .[1]"
After your editing to my original work, it became as follows:
"On the September 4 issue of TV Guide, the names of the four tribes were revealed: Aitutaki (Hispanic-Americans - red), Rarotonga (Caucasian-Americans - blue), Manihiki (African-Americans - yellow) and Puka Puka (Asian-Americans - green). All four tribes are named after the many islands in the nation .[4]"
Also I've read your message: "Users: 74.12.145.196 (Azn sam8 ?) keep reverting the Survivor: Cook Islands article in ways that appear to be racist (the Rarotonga - Caucasian American tribe are always changed back to being on top) and inserting capitals that have been changed to lower case more than once. Could you block the offending user or protect the page please?"
I personally take a huge offense to you blaming me of something that I did not or did not intend to do. First of all I do not understand what you are talking about when you say the Caucasians are always being on top. Secondly, I am Asian so why would I be racist to my own people by putting the Asians below the Caucasians? Thirdly, if your going to make something so little become a huge issue then I find that very very immature.
My final complaint is you refering the Caucasians as "Caucasian Americans". Caucasians are already Americans so refering them as "Caucasian Americans" is entirely unnessary
And please feel free to discuss with me through hotmail as well because I'm not quite familiar with the messaging system on Wikipedia.
My hotmail is: azn_sam8@hotmail.com. You may talk to me through MSN Messenger as well.
Seriously we better settle this because I know your starting to get annoyed by me reverting my work. All I'm asking you is to stop editing that ONE PARAGRAPH that I've put up on wikipedia —Preceding unsigned comment added by Azn sam8 (talk • contribs)
- Replied on article talk page. -- Gogo Dodo 05:50, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
Hi There
I dont get how you and another user TeckWiz see organizing the tribes by their race as "racist". If you think it is racist dont watch the show. Please give me a clear forward straight answer how this is racist. First and foremost I was not the orginal person who organized them that way so do not rant on me for something that I did not do. Secondly, how can you say that "I" or someone else organized them purely based on their race?? There are other factors that they could've been intended to be grouped: Tribe colour, Tribe name, etc...
Lastly, why are you and TeckWiz making such a huge issue with the Caucasians being on the top? How is that racist towards the other contestants? Keep in mind that I am Asian so why would I demean my own race? And if you view that as racism why don't you organize them by alphabetical order?
Please do email me or even add me on MSN Messenger so we could furthur discuss this because I am really getting annoyed of having to revert the edited articles back into the pre-vandalised ones.

Description of edits
Can you change it mate?
In the Survivor cook islands article, I reverted it but I accidentally put in the wrong description. The correct date of revision is 23:27 31 August 2006, but I put in 23:16 31 August 2006. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.215.81 (talk • contribs)
- Unfortunately, you can't change the edit summary (nor can you preview it before you hit Save, which drives me nuts). I wouldn't worry about the wrong date. The point was made clear enough with your summary. -- Gogo Dodo 05:53, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
Why do you guys organize them by surname, it makes no sense
I organized the table by Alphabetical order by first name, which is how the CBS website does it. People dont know the contestants (let alone everyday ppl) by their last name so leave it the way it was before and stop changing the table please —Preceding unsigned comment added by Azn sam8 (talk • contribs)

Rory block
Hey there. It's not a joke to me, that's why I did the short bock with SHHH as the notice. He's just going nuts on IRC, who knows why, Mike is there too. He should be calmed down when the block expires. He has a bit of a history for strange behavior randomly. Let me know if this is a problem, I am more than willing to discuss it. I'm headed off to AN/I now. Teke (talk) 04:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Re: WP:AN/I
Nah, I'd say you did the right thing. I know that if I saw similar edits, I'd take it as vandalism and act accordingly. Since it's an apparently experienced user with a history of some good edits, it makes sense to look into it some more, and AN/I seems as good a forum as any for that. The block seems appropriate, and I think it did calm the situation down. :) I was mostly looking at it in terms of... how to say it... I guess the question I'd ask would be, does further conversation calm the situation down, or escalate it? Things seemed to be heading in the second direction, a bit, so I spoke up. No harm done. We're all working in the right directions. :) And, thank you~ Happy editing. Luna Santin 05:03, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Edit to User:Interiot/Tool2
Hi Gogo Dodo, just wondering about your edit to this page - with the if (document.title.indexOf('User:Interiot/Tool2/code.js') != -1) , you are right that the script doesn't load on every page, but that's not entirely true - it doesn't load on any page whatsoever. It doesn't work. Without the if, the script works perfectly on the other hand. So I'm confused about your revert. Madder 21:02, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Unblock requests

Yeah, I know that unblock request was going nowhere, but that IP is the probably the same person as Heyguys (talk · contribs) who stuck two unblock requests on his page, the second showing at least some awareness of policy. I figured it would be best to follow all the rules just in case it didn't get through to him. -- Gogo Dodo 07:01, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
