Retirement?

Hey. I come to you cause I kinda learned how to edit from you and you've helped me but I'm considering retiring from WP. Should I?. Ho have I changed? Or have I changed my editing since I've started? -- Kings bibby win 01:30, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Administrator

Hello TJ, this is fellow wikipedian Kingsbibbywin aka (KBW), I noticed your not an administrator. Your a very good editor and assume good faith. I highly reccomend (sorry if I spelled it wrong, Spell checker not working) you Request it cause your administrator material. Keep up the GREAT work! -- Kings bibby win 23:56, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunelty, I was banned last week (although I disagreed with it) and that would kill any chance of it. I talked to an admin, and he suggested I wait a few months before trying to become one. Thanks for the vote of confidence thought. TJ Spyke 23:59, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
No problem, sorry bout the banned thing. People don't understand that you try to help the pages, they think you so call hog. Don't let it get you down. Although your a smart guy you won't let it get to you. Good Luck. -- Kings bibby win 03:56, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
He's banned just about every week. Because he's stubborn and rarely if ever assumes good faith. BuyAMountain 03:59, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Haha, are you still bitter about being proven wrong by me several times? TJ Spyke 04:00, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
You can count on at least two votes, no matter what the other end of edit wars say =) JackSparrow Ninja 04:10, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, i'll remember that in a few months when I consider it. TJ Spyke 04:11, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Hope to talk to you on the editing block. Later Friend. -- Kings bibby win 04:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
I don't believe you have proven me wrong yet. Go look at the article now. Mm. Consensus against you is delicious. Also how many blocks have you gotten from this site? Like 12? BuyAMountain 04:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
What article? One Night Stand? IIRC, a compromise was made. TJ Spyke 04:49, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Not to get in your buisness, but leave him alone. He tries to help Wikipedia and he knows what he's doing so please back off of him. Don't worry about him Spyke. -- Kings bibby win 04:52, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
He doesn't know what he's doing. That's why he gets blocked so much. Also, the compromise could only be made while you were blocked because you constantly interfered with it.BuyAMountain 06:13, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
I know what I am doing, you don't BAM. My last block occured because a user moved a page despite a move request failing, and when he tried to speedy delete a redirect so he could move another page I removed it. I should have put the "hang on" tag after the 3rd time, but I was still right. Also, the compromise had nothing to do with you since you were unwilling to offer one, I would have accepted the same compromise if you had offered it. You dislike me, but you know I am right. TJ Spyke 06:17, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Actually me and Bulletproof worked it out, and I had opened a discussion on the subject on the pages talk page well over a month ago. BuyAMountain 06:24, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
You didn't start a discussion, you just wrote "Do not change it". As for you and Bulletproof, HE wrote the compromise and you just stopped reverting it (after having reverted several times, with no discussion). Stop trying to make it sound like you did anything. TJ Spyke 06:27, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Fun fact, discussions start with one person saying something, then someone else responding to it. Neither of you posted a valid reason why it shouldn't be kept. And you didn't do anything either. You just mindlessly reverted, like you've been blocked for doing countless times. History is on my side here, no matter how many of your fanboys you get to back you up. BuyAMountain 06:29, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
History on your side? Maybe if you had actually started a discussion rather than just say "Don't change it back", which is not a valid reason (or any reason) for it to be kept. I didn't "mindlessly revert", as I stated legit reasons in the edit summary. TJ Spyke 06:35, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Right that would be the section of WP:PW that mentions that type of edit. The one that doesn't exist. I'm done wasting my time with you, in any case. Your record speaks for itself. I've never been blocked. You've been blocked repeatedly because you're uncivil and frequently violate 3RR because you're stubborn. Good luck getting admin with that block record. BuyAMountain 06:39, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
You weren't blocked because I never filed a 3RR violation on you when you violated it. The only time i'm noyt cilvil is with people who keep vandalizing a page and won't discuss anything. TJ Spyke 06:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Fan Boys? i'm not favoring TjSpyke. I just agree with how he handle's things and how he doesn't take any of your BS. -- Kings bibby win 06:57, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Stop. Wikipedia is about editing articles, not argueing back and forth. If you don't like a user: simply don't post on their talk page fighting with them. RobJ1981 22:30, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Well, however it happens, Spyke has my vote too. His work has taught me how it really is to edit Wikipedia properly.User:Killswitch Engage

Shawn Michaels & John Cena

TJ can you visite the Shawn Michaels and John Cena page. I created it and am hoping you can help me expand it. Or delete it if so. Let me know what you want to do. -- Kings bibby win 05:03, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

STFU

The STFU is not an STF, it is an STS. However as the moved is named as the SFTU then a lot of people think it is an STF. I was going to revert is but someone else did, but for future refernce read the talk pages, you'll see this matter was discussed before and a consensus arrived at. Darrenhusted 16:39, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

It was origionally done as an STF, Cena just changes how he holds it in from match to match, so to place it under one or the other is slightly misleading. darkie

I will help as much as I can to contribute to your case because I'm on your side completely.Freebird Jackson 01:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

How would you feel about creating a list article ... ? -- Prove It (talk) 03:44, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

The last thing we need here is another list. Besides all of that stuff is found in WrestleMania's main article. However, because the event is considered very notable not only to World Wrestling Entertainment but also Professional Wrestling in general I believe that this category should exist as it has a great deal to do with the history of the venues that hosted this event such as setting the venues' attendance records. -- bulletproof 3:16 03:54, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
See also locations by event, your comments are most welcome. -- Prove It (talk) 18:33, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Jonnie Stewart

I'm mightily impressed that you got flamed by Jonnie Stewart, that really is one to tell the grandkids (though, of course, they won't have heard of him either). Between his vanity articles, vandalism and wild claims of crapping on deceased wrestlers' tombs Mr Stewart has risen from non-entity to comedian in my estimation!

MITB

Well, I'm not watching ECW and considering Mr. Kennedy is a SmackDown superstar forgive me for thinking some1 added something that I thought maybe wasn't supposed to air until Friday. Did I make a mistake, yes. Was your edit summary uncalled for? Absolutely. You can be more civil, I've seen you do it. Bmg916 Speak to Me 03:48, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

My bad, thought it was towards me. I'm gonna get off Wikipedia for the night before I end up doing something real dumb. Bmg916 Speak to Me 03:54, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I can understand that you want to help the company Data Design, but do you think Wikipedia is the place for that? You say that they don't get much press coverage, that may be true, but I don't see that an encyclopedia is the right place to give a company press coverage.

WrestleMania 23

You know that Austin's going to be the referee.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Socby19 (talkcontribs)

He probably will be, but it's not official. TJ Spyke 21:59, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Why do you have an issue with keeping them? Dynamic Dudes for example: brief short lived tag team. The article would be small and not expanded much: there is no point in making the article when it can be explained on Shane Douglas and Johnny Ace's articles easier with a few lines. In my opinion: if the redlink is something that won't ever get made, it shouldn't be linked anymore. Making an article to have one less redlink in this case: wouldn't be helping. As I looked at other redlinks (on Halloween Havoc, and others): many of them will never be created. They should be de-linked. Creating cruft (just to make less redlinks) that will end up in AFD probably isn't how Wikipedia works. I see no guideline on Wikipedia saying "every name must be redlinked, not de-linked" or anything similar. I've created a post on the wrestling project talk page as well. RobJ1981 21:52, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

RE: List of Virtual Console games (North America)

You do know that the point of the FUTURE release section is for games that are confirmed, but not out yet? Why did you move Zelda: OOT out and put in the the RELEASED section? TJ Spyke 21:10, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

It was an oversight on my part. My apologies. --Jmeriot 17:20, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Regarding the use of the verb "emanate" with regard to wrestling events

I am directing your attention to the discussion seen here on my talk page, at the request of another editor. As you will see, "emanate" is not, in my opinion, appropriate to use in the context in which I removed it from the Wrestlemania 22 article, because it results in an unnecessarily opaque (i.e., obfuscated) statement. Matt Gies 21:04, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

PWG World Tag Team Championship

AfD for Back Dorm Boys

I know YouTube lip synchers aren't notable, but I think I've found maybe one or two sources that might pique your interest, if you choose to view them at the AfD page. -Pandacomics 04:46, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism

Please do not accuse me of vandalizing the WrestleMania 23 page. I simply stated in my reason to edit the page that the board of directors will make an announcement regarding the special guest referee for the Umaga vs. Lashley match.Noted from an Official Source.[1] JAB5 04:05, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

My Bad

I mistakenly reverted your vote on the page Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Yu_gi_oh_Champions. My vandalism checker has been acting squirrelly lately and identified it (incorrectly) as a main-page edit. A thousand apologies. Carry on. Bullzeye 05:07, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Japanese Virtual Console date Ocarina of Time

Hey TJ Spyke,

Since you were one of the ones that changed it, and have updated the whole VC Japan list, you might be able to answer this. I have understood that Zelda: Ocarina of Time was released on the Japanese Virtual Console on January 30, but several people change it to February 27. I can't find a reference for the latter though. Can you tell me what's the deal with the date now?

cheers JackSparrow Ninja 20:09, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Tables

Looking at your edit history, I don't see anywhere it being agreed to use those instructions you are putting on Virtual Console pages. Can you point out where it was agreed? The issue I have is the way to list dates ("2007-12-31" for general 2007 dates when 2007 is easier and faster to use and show). TJ Spyke 08:23, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I see you reverting a lot of edits that do not cite sources. It must be frustrating to do this several times a day. The problem is that people may not be aware of the "rules" that apply. As they are not clearly announced anywhere. So, I thought I include a short list of rules as a comment in the article. I figured that the sorting by date could best be done as described in my comment. However, I agree there is room for improvement as per your suggestion. Maybe the Wii games talk page has an even better way to do this. What do you think. I'm open for suggestions. ʍαμ$ʏ5043 08:38, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

PPV articles

I rewrote the opening parts of each PPV event article and removed the "emanated from" part. All users agree that it is an absurd circumlocution. It is an unnecessarily long and indirect way of saying where the event took place. Users who aren't even part of WP:PW and have made many more important contributions also agree that the phrase is completely redundant. The only one who seems to have a problem with the proper way of saying where an event took place is you. Please do not revert the changes that I made and instead try to convince the majority to use your format in the WP:PW talk page. Cheers! -- bulletproof 3:16 21:00, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

WP:PW admin

Do you know anyone in WP:PW with a chance at making admin? -- The Hybrid 04:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I just failed on Wednesday, actually. Thanks though. -- The Hybrid 04:26, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I bit someone a couple months ago. That, and the whole Triple Crown Championship thing screwed me over. -- The Hybrid 04:27, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

What about Paulley? -- The Hybrid 04:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I know that I would, and that I could use the tools to do a lot of maintenance that WP:PW needs badly. But since I just failed I'm out until at least July. -- The Hybrid 04:34, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I just asked him. I'm planning to run again in October, as the overall RfA history seems to suggest that 6 months is the magic number. I know that the 3RR thing disqualifies you at the moment, but I think that you would be a great admin. I would say run sometime in September, as you'll probably make it. Peace, -- The Hybrid 04:38, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, Nishkid would know better than I would. Yeah, I'll let you know about Paulley. Peace, -- The Hybrid 04:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

sorry

It is not funny anymore... i will stop.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Fajagbccvv (talkcontribs)


RE: Austin

I guess I hit enter a split second before you then, because I hit enter as soon as Austin's music hit. I didn't break any rules. I dont break the rules. never have, never will. Bmg916 Speak to Me 03:11, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm on your side. It's very annoying, I know. I really hate when the smart marks think this is like one of their sites or something and insert the matches/title changes months before the PPV, let alone right away. Bmg916 Speak to Me 03:17, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Its the same image, except it has the WWE info at the bottom. You took a poster, and cropped a bunch of stuff out and left a white spot at the bottom. There is no reason to change the poster I added originally. ThatsHowIRoll 23:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

You tampered with an image (which is against copyright laws) and uploaded it. Then replaced mine that didn't need to be replaced with your edited poster which is unnecessary. ThatsHowIRoll 23:13, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't call removing "Stone Cold" from the article as reverting vandalism (see Wikipedia:Vandalism#Types_of_vandalism). I won't report you because I'm starting to feel like editing Wikipeda is retarded. There is way more important things in life. ThatsHowIRoll 00:03, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

WM 23 RV

So, why did you revert me? -- The Hybrid 03:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I didn't on purpose, we must have started editing at the same time (you don't get a edit conflict when reveting, so I didn't know about your edit). TJ Spyke 03:57, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
I see. That has happened to me a few times. Peace, -- The Hybrid 03:58, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I think it makes things quite a bit less tedious. We still have to make sure the current champion's in the right position, but at least we don't have to manually +1 every day. I'm fine with it. MarcK 15:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Yesterday I put a Backlash 2007 on the page, and you go and remove it saying it is fake. Here is the image. How in the living hell can you even attempt to say it's fake. Does it look like it's created by myself? Do you think that I would be able to get Edge's face to that amount of quality? No. So, how can you call that fake? Here's the image so you can see it yourself. Image:Backlash07.jpg. If you think that's fake, well I'm afraid you have some kind of problem. Davnel03 18:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

First, don't get that attitude with me. Second, it's not official (and that is the reason it's not going in the article). TJ Spyke 00:53, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

The Great American Bash 2007 Poster

TJ, I just recently posted a GAB 07 poster that featured John Cena, King Booker, and Batista. Why did you delete it and said it was fake? It's WWE official poster for the event! But I could likey be wrong, it might change, but it said it was official. one other user also poster the picture and you deleted his, and on the Backlash post I saw, It said you believed it was fake.I don't think that this poster will be fake, but let's let time tell. Dro Boy March 7, 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dro Boy (talkcontribs)

Well if the poster is not real, how come the poster says official? I don't know, and you have a good point, why is it in black and white? and I think that the WM 23 logo is there to promote the event for anyone whom had view this poster already.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Dro Boy (talkcontribs)

If you were designing a fake poster, wouldn't you want people to think it was real? Also, the general public doesn't see event posters until about a month before the event, the only people who see it earlier are usually media affiliates. TJ Spyke 01:05, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Warning
Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. auburnpilot talk 06:09, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

WrestleMania revisions

I'm just sick of you reverting everything worthwhile I attempt to add to the various WrestleMania articles. You do not own the articles, they are free to be edited by anyone as long as they contribute to the betterment of Wikipedia. They are not there for you to watch like a hawk and quickly revert anything added just because you don't like what someone else has added. The fact of the matter is, for example, the WrestleMania IV logo I uploaded was far better than the old one, which was faded, small, and pixelated. Ditto on the WrestleMania X-Seven one. In all honesty, you need to chill out as far as your quick revisions go, because, I know I'm not the only one who has a problem with it. Kyle C Haight 15:30, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Summerslam 2001

Summerslam 2001 box art Thank you. Mshake3 02:10, 11 March 2007 (UTC) Actually, Summerslam 2001 IS on DVD. But anyway, the fact is that it was just the WWF's way of naming championships at the time. While WCW used weight classes and national rankings (World Heavyweight, United States Heavyweight, World Tag Team, World Cruiserweight), the WWF didn't, probably in an attempt to keep things simple. Mshake3 02:28, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Why have you uploaded the same image twice?

Why did you upload that other image into WWE Backlash. It was exactly the same (file size and everything). Just alter the text of the first one if something is wrong. Qrio12 02:34, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I actually don't know why you've uploaded the same image over the original again. It isn't at a different place which is good, but it's the same file size and resolution. Qrio12 02:46, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Wrestlemania

Actually the Wrestlemania event specifically sponsors NASCAR. More specifically Jeremy Mayfields #36 Toyota Camry. Visit here [4] and click on driver table. War wizard90 14:40, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

You obviously didn't click on driver table after clickin on the link where it specifically lists WrestleMania as a sponsor. 360 OTC is his primary sponsor Wrestlemania is his secondary sponsor. I follow NASCAR religiously I think I would know. War wizard90 23:59, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Templates

Hi! I went over to your wiki and added some auxiliary templates, so now it should work... except for one thing. Apparently, that wiki does not support an extension called ParserFunctions, which enable (among other things) conditional template parameter calls. To install the ParserFunctions extension, you need access to the root of the server, where all of the PHP files are.

However, according to this thread, you have to be a paying customer to request changes to the PHP file. Apparently the site runs on 1.6.8 MediaWiki. The version that Wikipedia runs on is 1.10 alpha. I suppose that you can request the installation of ParserFunctions at the "General Support" section of the forum, but I can't say that they'll grant your request. If you have to pay for something, of course, I would suggest freehostia.com, which allows you PHP, MySQL, and phpmyadmin (the former 2 are needed for MediaWiki, and the latter is very helpful) for not that much money. Of course, now this is sounding like an ad :) If you need any related or unrelated help, please ask. GracenotesT § 22:49, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

It appears as though ParserFunctions are installed after all, and I fixed a bug in the code. It was me changing that! In general, you can just copy over the templates and license it under the GFDL, although as with {{Infobox wrestling event}}, it may require sub-templates. Also, there may be links to non-existent pages on your wiki, or articles included in not-yet-created categories. GracenotesT § 01:54, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I know just about nothing when it comes to this (or programming in general). TJ Spyke 01:55, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Infobox Reply

I saw your request for some infoboxes. I'm confused... don't those templates already exist? What would you like me to do? /Timneu22 23:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

The Rock

Hey TJSpyke. This is kinda off editing WP, but in your opinon do you think The Rock is coming back? He just turned down a couple of scripts so what do you think? BTW, you got me on the "New Messages". Although its spelt wrong. It says "New Massages". Still got me though. -- Kings bibby win 01:01, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Not full time, although I could see him appearing on occasions (ala Mick Foley). TJ Spyke 01:29, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Ultimate X-Men (story arcs): Peer Review

Greetings! In December of 2006, you participated in the discussion for the 2nd deletion nomination of Ultimate X-Men (story arcs). After two months of rewriting, reorganizing, and referencing, the article is now undergoing a WikiProject Comics peer review. Your editorial opinion would be most welcome to help us improve the article to A-class status. Thanks for your time! - fmmarianicolon | Talk 06:05, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Wwabelt.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Wwabelt.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Wii

Regarding this edit, can you please explain why have you decided to revert my edits? I have done a few very valid fixes to the article, including WP:MOS fixes (WP:DATE, WP:EL) and copyediting per the FAC suggestions here. Thanks. Michaelas10 (Talk) 13:51, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes I can read. Now here is something for you to read:Wikipedia:Naming conventions (acronyms). If you go down to Acronyms as words in article titles, it states that if an acronym is used for more than one article, like TNA, then the article TNA is to be a list of what TNA could stand for. Because that is Wikipedia's policy, I have requested that TNA (disambiguation) to be merged with TNA, since that is where it belongs.PepsiPlunge 05:44, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

You are misleading others into thinking that Kororinpa: Marble Mania as being the "original" name of the article. You know otherwise. You also seem to have forgotten vandalising the redirect, it doesn't matter, the deleted edits should be able to clear it up. I dropped off a message at the deleting admin's talk page to clear up any confusion you might have.

If you indeed believe that we should "compromise" on every naming dispute, please introduce the words Kirby: Power Paintbrush into Template:Kirby series, and Lylat Wars into Template:Star Fox series and maintain them. If so, then having Topsy-Turvy in Template:Yoshi series is fine. I however, don't believe in compromise and given the page move, think it's fine as it is. - hahnchen 10:13, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

If you have the time, I'd be interested to read about what your thoughts on what constitutes as vandalism, they seem quite counter-intuitive. - hahnchen 10:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Do you think the article looks better with those images in it? The aren't even accurate and most aren't free use which would make this go against the Image use policy. -- bulletproof 3:16 02:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use

If they're fair use pictures, why should we avoid them? Why is it ok to use them in wrestler profiles but not in the list of champions? I don't get your logic. Explain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adam sk (talkcontribs)

The photos do "specifically illustrate relevant points" - notably, they specifically illustrate the point of who was WWE champion, which is incredibly relevant to a page listing WWE champions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adam sk (talkcontribs)
List pages always use the same photo for every time in the list. Also, especially since you're complaining about the lack of fair use pictures available for wrestlers (and they're ought to be a lot more - come on wrestling fans, step up), it's not really fair of you to complain about that. I'd love to have a pic of every champion winning the title, but I don't think that's going to happen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adam sk (talkcontribs)

WrestleMania

Note: Hey i am wikipedia user Dingv03 just geting back to you about how you warned me about the editing changes i made to the "wrestlemania 23" page. I am well aware that you are not alowed to add spoilers but however you told me i was doing the wrong thing when i added the United States Championship match at Wrestlemania. Fistly, i am an Australian, and i saw GM Teddy Long annouce that match shortley after MVP was attacking some wrestler from mexico or something. Being australian, dosn't that mean i have seen Friday night smackdown after all of the American viewers have Secondly, i know the match wasn't annonced on wwe.com but the circumstances was just the same at this recent Royal Rumble when wwe.com hadn't announced Undertaker's win but Wikipedia had! PS: Sorry about editing your user page but i didn't know how to get in touch with you (you can do the same to reply to me) Thanks User:Dingv03

Another Note from Dingyv03: Sorry TJ. I didn't realise that mate. For something completely different, how do you get that table of things about you, like you do on your user page (eg: about how you like the simpsons, your nocternal, your zero-tolerence and stuff like that) Thanks User:Dingv03

Wrestling template

I did not put the template on the template page, that was taken up by another. Yet I did write that particular template. I used it first on the Hulk Hogan page and the Undertaker page. It was useful against the ones who would put week-by-week stuff up. It was copied by others and then placed on the template page.Halbared 22:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC) Just took a look, I believe this was the first time I used it on the Hogan page. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hulk_Hogan&diff=62138651&oldid=62130938 Halbared 22:46, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

My User Page

Hey, do you think you you could do me a HUGE favor and add my user page to your watchlist? Some IPs have randomly decided to vandalize it every so often (like, IPs of editors that I havent even reverted or anything like that). You don't have too, but if you did I'd really appreciate it. Thanks. Bmg916 Speak to Me 03:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Sure. TJ Spyke 03:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! Bmg916 Speak to Me 16:58, 18 March 2007 (UTC)


OWW

I've discovered that if we comment out the links to OWW, it wont trigger the spam blacklist. We should try finding and doing this so that way fewer will get deleted, and it will be much easier to get them all back in when it's taken off the spam blacklist. Bmg916 Speak to Me 23:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. For now though, we should make sure to edit just individual sections instead of the whole page (this includes when reverting vandalsim). TJ Spyke 23:09, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
I agree w/that, as much as it is a pain in the ass, it's gotta be done. If we comment out OwW then we can revert w/o an issue (I usually comment it out after editing an individual section). Bmg916 Speak to Me 23:12, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Did I miss anything?

Sup TJ? What did I miss? -- The Hybrid 05:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Not much, I had to get the WrestleMania page semi-protected because a bunch of IP's kept putting Orlando in as the location of WrestleMania 24 (apparently a news station there announced it, although WWE has not). TJ Spyke 06:27, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Ah, I was wondering when something would happen to the actual WrestleMania article. -- The Hybrid 22:25, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Image:Wii Play.jpg

Hey. Sorry about that - I meant to tag Image:Wii Play.jpg as needing a fair use rationale (not orphaned), but I somehow got confused. It still needs a rationale, though I'm not sure what sort of rationale could be used as it seems to be used solely for decoration at the moment. --- RockMFR 00:02, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Booker T/The Rock debate

Can you help me over at the Booker T talk page please? Some one is trying to deny the fact that The Rock is the first Black World Champion in WWF/E because he's only "half black". Thanks Bmg916 Speak to Me 17:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, hopefully we can get one or two other guys to comment so we can call consensus. Bmg916 Speak to Me 19:13, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

TNA Impact

Eh, I've sided with the "Impact!" spelling group. The examples given won me over. Now my focus is on other matters, like the One Night Stand issue (ECW wasn't the promotion name you know). Mshake3 00:13, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately,I've given up on that issue as well as the TCC and GSC pages and their issues, they were causing me way too much stress. I don't do well with such stress, I get very irritable. On a side note, thank you very much for watching my user page and rving the attack, I have no idea what that was for as I was in NYC for the last 3 or 4 days and no internet access. Cheers, Bmg916 Speak to Me 01:29, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Virtual Console (Nintendo Power)

There is a section in every new Nintendo Power called the "Wii Channels". It's usually 2-4 pages long and it always talks about new channels on the Wii and Virtual Console games that are new on the Wii. It says there are 13 new games this month (this is the May Issue, which covers April material since magazines are always a month ahead). The games in this issue are:
Bio-Hazzard Battle
Chew Man Fu
Elevator Action
Graduis III
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire
Sonic Spinball
Super Ghouls 'N Goblins
Sword of Vermillion
Tecmo Bowl
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Vectorman
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Vectorman and Zelda II along with some other games are Staff Picks. Taken in account the last 5 or so Issues, everytime a game appears in Nintendo Power, it is already out or it comes out that month, this month being April since it is the May Issue. There has not been a game that hasn't followed by these two guidelines. There are no dates underneath the games, but there is what the game is and why you should care about it. So if we can believe the fact that the games listed will come out that month, like excitebike did last month, and games did before that, then Nintendo Power hasn't been wrong yet. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Draggingalake (talkcontribs) 13:42, 27 March 2007 (UTC).

linking

Why do you insist on taking them out? They're not hurting anything and they're more informative. There's no way they "look" any more ridiculous than when they're linked together, since it's looks exactly the same. It's already been brought up on wp:pw and wp:bio and no one had any objections but you.«»bd(talk stalk) 22:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Those just seem like weak examples. There are times when it would be perfectly correct to like US and Navy separate. It makes sense, in an infobox, to have everything directly linked so that everything can be gone directly to. Why should people have to go through some random city to get to a state, then the state to get to a country? And it's only ever done when when the city article has the state in the title, London is never linked as [[London|London, England]] or Chicago as [[Chicago|Chicago, Illinois]].«»bd(talk stalk) 01:33, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Binary prefixes

About your reverts of binary prefixes, MB and MiB have the same meaning in this context. You don't have any source saying that the Wii has 512,000,000 bytes of memory. What Nintendo or other sources mean by 512 MB is 512*1024*1024 B so MiB is the correct unit. Please stop reverting. Sarenne 23:03, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

My mistake for internal flash memory which is NAND memory, so I don't know if they mean 512000000 bytes or 512*1024*1024 B. Sorry.Sarenne 23:38, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Curiosity

Just out of curiosity, what does your M edit summary mean? You only use it when reverting a good faith, yet bad (usually) edit. So, what exactly does it stand for? Peace, -- The Hybrid 01:14, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, but why not just click the little box thing? -- The Hybrid 01:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Peace, -- The Hybrid 01:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Multiple AFD

1000 thanks for nominating that series of useless stubs!! One problem, however... one of the listed articles Night Fall is a legit novel stub. Did you get the right article for that one? There isn't a deletion tag on the article itself. SkierRMH 07:43, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Stop changing infoboxes after me

It's not the "agreed standard" it's the standard you personally prefer. I'm trying to put as much information as I can. If you insist on turning this into an edit war I'll put it back up for discussion, either on wp:pw, wp:bio, or even take it to actual arbitration. You make the call, I don't care, but changing it and claiming it's some agreed standard when it's not is BS.«»bd(talk stalk) 01:41, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi there, just wanted to say thank you for all that information about editing wikipedia. I'll certainly keep my eye out for more gobshite :) Thanks again! Bingo Overhill 02:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Finally...

Finally, no more sock activity going on. Hopefully that'll be the last we've seen of the troll.-- bulletproof 3:16 18:19, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Serial comma

Regarding this edit, I'd like to point out that use of the serial comma is not a grammatical error, as you implied, but a valid stylistic decision. Pagrashtak 22:01, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

No problem, least I can do after you reverted that vandalism for me on my user page when I didn't have internet access. Bmg916Speak to Me 20:41, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
