Newbie with problem article
Titch is giving me a headache. Could you take a look at its talk page and post your views, please? (Eh, I'm pesting you because you posted a welcome on my Talk page - it I'm barking up the wrong editor, or in the wrong place, let me know.) Elanna-Rose 21:46, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Magic underwear
You deleted Magic underwear (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) as CSD G10 - I searched for this term to find out what was being referred to when this term is used by various media personalities - I did eventually find Temple garment, but I have a question - was what you deleted simply a redirect? Just because something is offensive does not mean it should not be used as a redirect - it is a term that is being notably used to refer to it. (Temple garment itself is full of pro-LDS POV-pushing users, even up to a policy-violating "guideline" tag on the talk page, but that's beside the point) —Random832 13:43, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Sorry about replacing that tag on your userpage. At first I thought it was a vandal, then it looked like some sort of dispute that I didn't want to get involved in. For the record, I've never thought you were a sockpuppet. :) *Gives you ice cream.* Cheers! -WarthogDemon 17:18, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I think you're incorrect. Supposing he didn't mean to vandalize; he just wanted to express his opinion? "Inappropriate appraisal" and "inappropriate insults" are not necessarily vandalisms; unless you ask him, you can't really know what his intentions were. He might not have known that you aren't supposed to say such things. This may be the first time we've spoken, but I must request that you be gentler to other users.

I have a question for you, when you block someone's IP, can they just create a user name, and vandalize again? Like wise, when you block their screen name, can they just make a new one, and vandalize again? Ctjf83 05:14, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Boomerang Throwing Groups
Hi!
I spent ages collecting that information, and I even checked other wikipedia pages to make sure I wasn't wasting my time...
Please have a look at the list of international soccer clubs, then go to the tennis clubs list... and then let me know what was the difference with the listing of all the boomerang throwing clubs.
It listed (in order of country and state) almost every boomerang throwing group in the world. The ones that weren't listed were notified that they should add their own clubs to the list.
If you still feel that this page was justifiably deleted, then please delete all the other ones that *just list groups* as they contain EXACTLY the same information as the boomerang page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lenny127 (talk • contribs) 09:08, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Klamath Falls Article
I realize that yea copying the text may have been too much but saying it in my own words may be incorrect and giving out incorrect data is not right.. tho it may not change your opinion on that.. i still believe you shouldnt put it in your own words because it may lead to giving out false information about that topic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.121.1.127 (talk • contribs)

I apologize
Between December 14, 2005 and June 7, 2007, I vandalized Wikipedia under my previous username (YechielMan) and under various IP addresses and alternate accounts.
I recently reviewed the contribution logs of all the accounts and IP addresses that I can recall having used. My goal was to identify all of the intentionally harmful edits I caused, and to apologize to the individual users who reverted those edits, or warned me, or blocked me.
Hence, I apologize to you and to all of the following users:
- Adam Bishop, Amarkov, Antandrus, AntiVandalBot, Bdj (Badlydrawnjeff), Conk 9, CanbekEsen, DLand, Downwards, Eagle 101, Ericbronder, Gogo Dodo, High on a tree, Hut 8.5, Interiot, Jayjg, Jrwallac, Kingboyk, Kuru, Noclip, Patrick Berry, PFHLai, PhantomS, Pollinator, Rachack, Ranma9617, Rx StrangeLove, SlimVirgin, Tfrogner, TommyBoy, Vary, Woohookitty, Zzuuzz, and some anonymous IPs. (I also reverted one edit myself after it went unnoticed for three weeks.)
Thank you for maintaining the integrity of Wikipedia against everyone who has attacked it, including my old self.
If you wish to respond, please do so at my talk page.
Best regards, Shalom (Hello • Peace) 19:26, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

All alumni listed were put in by the original creator of the page, a monk and former teacher at the school who now resides in Washington, D.C., at the request of either the headmaster or a member of the administration.

Well all right then!
Thanks for the advice on CSD tagging. I've had an incident before where I tagged a practical joke as nonesense only to have an administrator allow the article on the grounds that it wasn't nonesense. When I asked him about it, he helpfully responded that it was closer to vandalism, and so I've been tagging all hoaxes and other hard-to-categorize pages that way since. But now that I know where they belong, I'll be sure to mark vanity bios as {{db-bio}} from now on. Thanks again for the help! --jonny-mt(t)(c) 06:06, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Foxy Brown request for semi-protection
Thanks for taking the time to consider my request to semi-protect the page. I should note that I virtually "adopted" that entry, when I saw the amount of back-and-forth changes, obviously made by "fans" and "enemies" of the artist, i.e. anonymous posters whose only contributions were to this entry. I'm not fan nor an expert on rap, either! In any case, I'm giving up on that entry, for at least a month, and allow things to develop on their own. The Gnome 04:21, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey, old buddy!
Of course I remember you! Anyone whose screen name ties in with Porky in Wackyland is pretty hard to forget. :) Sadly, I'm becoming extremely frustrated with the way things are going. It's gotten to the point where this site is pretty much filled with anything of major importance. All the new articles seem to be about English footballers, obscure 18th Century politicians and occasional bios about other obsucre sports figures. In short, stuff I couldn't care less about. Gone are the days when I stumbled on red links like Ridge Route and was able to start with a good stub and turn it into a feature. Heck, none of my features are features anymore. So, I've been very careful about adding new content. One article I did called Uncle Don's Toys about a historic Palm Springs toy store was run up for AfD within fifteen seconds. Last night, I wrote HobbyZone Millennium PTU about a major new indoor micro-helicopter. Boom. Gone. I had written it on another wiki and was in the process of bringing it up to snuff when it was speedied for being advertising and of no importance. I've seen band vanity articles get better treatment. I put it on deletion review where (a) they're demanding slews of third-party sources and (b) a user is claiming that I'm having "fantasies of notability" about the thing. Hell, just because it's a commercial product doesn't make it an ad. Worse, I don't recognize any of these new users and admins. The admins are so overwhelmed with the real garbage that comes in on NPP that they bite at anything that doesn't have the significance of George Washington. Thanks for the welcome-home, but it isn't a very pleasant homecoming. Regards, --PMDrive1061 16:04, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi! I'm sorry it had to end this way...I managed to last a little over a month this time around...but these new users and new admins who are stuck on policy are just squeezing the life out of this place.

Reply
Thanks for the notification. I was experimenting with a final warning as such, and it was good to hear your side and feelings about that kind of a warning. What you explained about alerting the person that he was ARV'd makes sense: the vandal would speed up his vandalism attempts before being blocked. So I'll make sure to ARV a user or IP discretely. If you haven't already, I'll remove that message. Thanks a lot and I hope to keep in touch with you, as well as the other admins that hear my ARV messages. Also, on a side note, I didn't realize that another user had warned him before I did. Twinkle reverted the edit successfully, and I thought that I was the original reverted and hence, gave him the 4im only warning. BeanoJosh 04:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

- I have a question for you, if you don't mind. In my talkpage, just above our conversation is a conversation I had with 74.142.55.239. He claims to be amerindianarts, which I know is 100% not true. The user claiming to be him does not know how to make a subject in my talkpage and doesn't sign what he wrote; amerindianarts does. amerindianarts also had contributions one day after he wrote his claim on my talkpage. That's just a small bit of evidence I have. Is there a policy against false claims and impersonation? BeanoJosh 10:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

I didn't know if there was a policy or even an investigation on claims like that, so I thought I'd brush it by you. Whatever, if he wants to be rude and mis-understanding, then that's fine with me. And sorry for deleting your note. I didn't think you'd care. BeanoJosh 08:23, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

- Oh I wasn't worried or upset about it at all. If he wanted to make claims or be a nonsense user, he can. I wouldn't become upset or make nasty replies to someone who chooses to be an idiot. I just post my warnings, and report the users or IP's that are warned too many times. The only reason I asked you and made any replies is because I didn't know whether making claims like that are things admins look for to block or warn someone with. I am hoping to run for adminship a few months down the line. I am really hoping to see not only your support, but support from others down the line. Thanks and I appreciate it.

WP:UAA edit summary
To answer your question in this edit summary, yes, that was why the bots were not updating the page. Alas, it is impossible to account for every bit of silliness someone will do. Perhaps a note in the "Sysops" section of the page header to indicate that admins can/should notify one of the bot owners if things don't seem to be getting removed could help get this type of thing fixed more quickly. I'll look at that in a moment. Thanks for fixing it. —Krellis (Talk) 19:29, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Repetitive spam on the Cap d'Agde article
The article Cap d'Agde (page revision history) is receiving repetitive insertions of the same two web site links, via multiple IP addresses (so far 90.37.151.7,90.41.213.73 and 90.48.15.208 , I'm really getting feed up having to remove the spam each day and the warning I placed on the user talk page just resulted in another IP number, so I'm wondering what might be done - could the page be semi protected to allow only logged in / registered users edit access for a short period so the spammer might finally get the message? BTW reading Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam it ticks all the classic boxes, I've now removed the 'external links' section to see what happens next. I contacted you as you helped to clean the article up a week or so ago and as I'm relatively new to Wiki I'm not sure the correct procedures now. Many tanks. SouthernElectric 21:19, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- Further to the above, I noticed that this spammer seemingly deleted the <references /> section before adding their spam, no doubt to add weight to the spam in the absence of a couple of websites cited within the article. SouthernElectric 17:42, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- I took a closer look and it is not-so-subtle travel agency spam. Probably the owner of the agency in question. That webcam was boring, too, but that's besides the point. While there are anti-spam bots that will remove links, since the links are only being added to a single article, it is not likely that the anti-spam bots will be set to look for it as they generally only add websites that are mass spammed. I went ahead and semi-protected the page for a week. Perhaps they will give up and go away. Unfortunately, there is not a whole lot else you can do besides to leave the article in your watch list and keep reverting. -- Gogo Dodo 21:01, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for protecting the page, but I've just reverted what I thought had been deleted by the unlogged-in IP user only to realise that you had in fact deleted the section - That information really does need to be included, it's valid encyclopedic information that naturists would be looking for, although it could live without the citations - but then Wikipedia will pick the article up as being uncited, the information just isn't going to be anywhere else other than in a commercial place, surely there is a difference between citing a commercial source to back up textual content and just adding a commercial web link? SouthernElectric 23:42, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- I removed the reference to the travel agency because I am concerned that it ends up driving commercial traffic to the site when the agency is not really an official website of the resort nor does the site qualify as a reliable source. I think that particular sentence can exist without the citation. -- Gogo Dodo 23:51, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Sorry to bring this issue up again but the spammer is still inserting their spam daily (current edit history), is there any chance of placing a short IP# edit block on again so they might get the message that they are just wasting their time, I know this would also affect legitimate anonymous editors but the articles edit history is such that little or no editing is taking place by IP# (bar the spammer). SouthernElectric (talk) 21:03, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- Done. Though I suspect they will be back since the previous short protection only discouraged them for a month. -- -- Gogo Dodo 21:24, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- Can I ask for some guidance as to how to handle the comments being left on the Talk:Cap d'Agde page by this user please? Their first couple of contributions (which I simply removed and linked back to) were not much more than placing the same links onto the talk page and then making accusations about the IMDB web site and complaining about the quality of the information within the article. The user is criticising the quality/accuracy of the articles content but doesn't seem to be in any hurry to contribute beyond wanting to place web links... SouthernElectric (talk) 20:17, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
- I think you handled the situation just fine. It's fairly obvious that it is the link spammer who finally created an account. The spyware claim on IMDB is just weird. One thing of note though is that you shouldn't remove the editor's comments even though the links are spam because they are trying to have a discussion about it. Unless the comment is outright spam or blatant advertising (usually added by an automated spam bot), you should leave the links in so that other editors will understand the context. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:16, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Moscow News
I saw you once made a few sensible edits to the Moscow News article. Have a look now, because there is a Ria Novosti IP that is putting up an Orwellian rewrite of the history, trying to eliminate A. Louis from the history of the paper, etc. The edits are done by the same IP all the time, and now from Kiev (probably because the vandal is a foreign employee of Ria currently on a 'visa run'.) I'm not entirely sure how to get the guy's attention to stop reverting to his purged version, since he does not make any comments in the discussion section, nor seems to care to justify his changes. Thank you very much. 99.246.93.74 16:01, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Can I add the references to the two Lewis and Clark cartoons back into the Tension Mounts section as they are very much along the same theme. Can i also put the excate book and page numbers back as well for those, that is not infringing any copyrights is it? Whereiswally 08:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks (Wrestlecrap)
Thank you for the recent help with the Wrestlecrap and RD Reynolds pages. It's been a LONG nuisance that doesn't seem to want to go away. DX927 20:40, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks again. You may want to keep an eye on the Fruity Pebbles page as well. One of our longtime vandals is now vandalizing that with info about Wrestlecrap and RD Reynolds since those pages are protected. He's also posting under my username from the Wrestlecrap forums probably to try and get me in trouble down the road on there. DX927 18:25, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Looking to create an article about a possible political candidate
Hey, Jeff Stinson is a student at SMU and is considering running for Governor of MA. I'm trying to create a new wiki article for him. It seems people tried before but it was deleted because they didn't have sources. I have sources and have done some research. Can I proceed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mannysims (talk • contribs) 04:53, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Stinson is notable
He is currently serving as a political advisor to Dan Branch who ran the Bush-Cheney campaign and Stinson was the youngest legislative aide in Massachusetts history. Isn't that notable?--Mannysims 05:06, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Bah
No evidence of sockpuppetry for me. My user page deleted. Good. I get some respect from you. But I was welcomed with claims of being a sockpuppet by some user. And I'm not happy. --Jake R-12 07:43, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Replied to your Talk page. -- Gogo Dodo 07:49, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Since user has no other edits and leaped right into an ongoing discussion with a banned user who has more than a hundred sockpuppets (and who has spent the evening making slurs and threats that have resulted in him having two more socks banned), evidence points to a high probablity of him being a sockpuppet.
- This banned user, User:Starwars1955, has been extremely disruptive for quite some time. Check his list of socks and you can see that. Tonight, in overlapping conversations, he's used the identities of Lisa Kirkpatrick and Lock Box, if you'll check his contributions here and here, you can see what we're up against. He's used slurs, threats, and profanity, and that's just tonight.
- If this user is not the 100+th sock, I apologize, but I feel that based on the prior MO of this banned user, he was just overlapping socks again, thus the sockpuppet tag. I've tagged probably twenty of his socks before, and I've never been wrong.
- I do appreciate your stepping in to handle this, though. You and the other editors have done a great job moving quickly against this banned user to prevent more damage to Wikipedia, and I hope my explanation helps. Snowfire51 07:58, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

- I appreciate the quick answer. Unfortunately, SW1955 has used several socks before that made a few test edits (or small incorrect edits to several other articles to give the illusion of productivity, and then used his socks to claim he's a long-time editor that is just now adopting an identity. I'd say more, but WP:BEANS. After months of this, we're all a bit jumpy, and when this happens we all just assume it's happening again. I appreciate your time, though.

- I have to agree with Snowfire here, this edit makes me worry, as his second edit is on the page of a confirmed sock and somehow he understands this situation which took me a couple of solid days of work to figure out. I guess Snowfire is right that we all are a little jumpy but edits and edit summaries like this make us all a little justifiably tense when it comes to this editor. Thanks for your work though and hopefully this guy isnt who we think he is.
Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 08:19, 10 November 2007 (UTC)- One farther point that I forgot to mention was that on that second edit he states "I had the biggest feeling it was Starwars1955! The user page made it obvious." How could this guy even know about this situation, let alone "know" that it was him. This is a common tactic by our friend, to try and play the role of being an editor who seems like he is helping, just thought I would let you know.

- I have been looking around Wikipedia for almost a month now, and only made an account to see if there was anything I was missing out on. I had been quite interested in the sock puppet cases of Starwars1955, and decided to comment on the talk page of Lisa Kirkpatrick. I had done much research on the sock puppet cases of SW1955. --Jake R-12 (talk) 00:55, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

I understand you were the one who came into this situation, not SW1955. You're an admin who's doing your job, and I appreciate that. I simply passed along a word of warning to other editors who have also had major problems with SW1955, since I may not be on Wiki tomorrow, and the weekends are usually a horrible time for vandalism by SW1955 socks.

His big thing is to tell us to get a life or that we need girlfriends and that we have too much time on our hands, if it werent for WP:TROLL I would love to point out to this guy that we are spending our time actually doing good for this site, while he is spending his time doing stupid things that get reverted right away. Its very paradoxical. Oh and just to warn you, he likes to create user accounts that are close to the people he argues with, such as User:Gomzo_fan2007, User:Skybumny, User:Isolope23. Just thought I would give you fair warning if things turn out bad. Keep up the good work!

Robin Hood edits
It was reverted back to the pre-Yorkshirian edits because the editor has been asked more than a few times to discuss his edits prior to making them, as they tend to be sweeping in nature, removing other citations and statements without discussion. There is even a discussion about this (here), and unfortunately, the only defense he uses is that there was no proof to suggest Robin hood wasn't a real person, except that he most certainly wasn't Fulk Fitzwarin. I've suggested that he instead add his material bit by bit, to allow reasoned discussion as to the veracity of those edits, and not add them is so large a chunk that addressing them requires a long post. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 19:18, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Tech dummy's request for help
Hello Gogo Dodo. I'm contacting you because I see that you've been editing Template:User contrib and Template:User contrib/doc in the past. Well, I was trying to change the colors of the +23000 contributions userbox a while ago, as they were the same as previous +22000 contribs ubx's. So I've made changes to the templates, but for some reason the colors remain unchanged when the ubx is transcluded somewhere (I have the +23000 ubx displaying on my userpage). Could you please have a look and see what I did wrong? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Húsönd 17:06, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

I tend to have long gaps between edits, but I seem to meet all the other criteria the community tends to look for. I'm really nervous about this.

Closing request
This message has been addressed to you because you happened to be around at the time. I've sworn not to close fiction AfD's, and will likely get yelled at even if I do so purely on procedural grounds. It's on the latter that I ask you to speedily end Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Warcraft characters (2nd nomination) if that's in accordance with your own judgement. The delay between nomination and renomination is smaller than I've ever seen it approved to be after a single-article nc, and that's not the kind of behavior we can permit if we don't want the encyclopedia - or at the very least its coverage of fiction - to tear itself apart under internal strife in a couple of years. --Kizor (talk) 01:21, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

infrared sauna
Hi, it was me who added all the sauna links. I make informational sites as a hobby and have some of the most authorative and highest google ranked sites on the net (on some topics). I have just started the sauna site, and I now realise I went over the top with the sauna posts, having now read the "linking" regulations on Wiki (although I didn't think I was spamming at the time). And I realise wiki won't give me a higher google ranking etc.
I do however feel that this article is a valid link to add to the infrared saunas page, and want to show it to you first so that you don't hit me for spamming. It is educational, and is not covered within the wiki page, so I feel it is a valid link: http://www.saunaandspascene.com/infraredsaunasprebuilt.htm I feel it should be linked as How to setup your own infrared sauna at home
Please give your feedback. D. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.101.213.14 (talk) 15:59, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
- Before you re-add the link, I recommend that you first discuss the addition of the link on the article's Talk page to see what other editors' opinion is on if it should be included or not. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:58, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
More questions
I'm still a hopeful administrator, but don't plan on nominating myself until the summer of 2008 as per your suggestion that I stick around for a few months longer. The question I want to ask is, What are some deal-breakers in a request for adminship? Knowing what would make my RFA unsuccessful may help with my behavior on this site so that I may pass.

Re:Username
Hi. Thanks for your welcome message in my talk page. Regarding my username, I agree that the username is a bit long. But please don't tell me to change it. It consisits of 38 letters. But in wikipedia, usernames more than 30 letters are allowed. I have worked hard to make a good username. This username is very favourite to me. My username Stercorariuscyaneusparvulacataphractus actually consists of four Latin words. See this:
- Stercorarius (pronounce sterco-rarius)
- cyaneus (pronounce cya-neus)
- parvula (pronounce parvula)
- cataphractus (pronounce cata-phractus)
So the whole pronounciation is sterco-rarius-cya-neus-parvula-cata-phractus. Please don't ask to change it. I have worked hard on it. I hope this will not be a problem after realising the pronounciation. Thanking you. Stercorariuscyaneusparvulacataphractus (talk) 07:25, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Vault
My references? Drink the stuff. You'll see EXACTLY how accurate it is. Should I have used "Kicks like a Parapgegic" instead? That would have been offensive to people with spinal injuries...

Hi. I am trying to avoid a major edit war at Plug-in hybrid. I believe that User:Xchange is inserting edits which are biased, unverifiable and inaccurate, and that he/she is deleting previous edits which are pertinent and on-topic. I have decided to step away from editing the article until I get input from some admins, so I hope you can give me some guidance. If you are too busy, no worries. Thanks for listening!

User:Bogbiscuit
No problem at all. I don't think we edit-conflicted each other, and you were reverting his uncivil talk comments while I was busy blocking his account. Besides, it's time like those that I don't think it hurts for two users (admins) to think that a vandal is being that out of line. —C.Fred (talk) 00:40, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Regarding Jue Long article being deleted
Hi there,
So, I need to cite more valuable sources in the article to avoid being deleted again? I also need to include some of his albums, discography and awards, is that right?

Disneyland Forecast Center
I put a link down in the Disneyland wiki section and it is to a Disneyland Weather Forecast Center. It has helped many people plan going or not going to the park to see the fireworks. Has all kinds of forecasts and discussions. It was undid and doesn't make sense why. This person Gogo Dodo did it. The forecast center is WIDELY recognized by Disneyland. Need a message why that link is not allowed. It's very vital to the park. They do USE IT. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WxSocal (talk • contribs) 07:08, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
