Our new friend dotI asked our new friend ∙ (talk · contribs)politely to change his username. Could you (if you do agree; I did have to go and find the special dot character; this of course is the inherent problem). Tell him to change his username (possibly with template:usernameblock. I don't want to give the impression I'm bullying him and taking unilateral action or for that matter respond to his reply which was a bit trollish. I'm just a lowly admin. Tell him it's nothing personal. — Dunc|☺ 21:28, 8 December 2005 (UTC) The three articles that are nominees for translation of the week have already been translated, seem to be machine translated or very poorly translated. Should we re-translate the articles or try to clean up the grammar? — J3ff 22:44, 8 December 2005 (UTC) Hello, lad. I noticed you talking about this somewhere, so I'm assuming that you understand how it works. Would you be so kind as to enlighten me? It looks like it's a way to keep track of the edits of newcomers, but I can't tell who gets on the list and who doesn't, when you get off it, whether or not IPs are on it, along with some other things—and there doesn't seem to be a help page on it (maybe I'll create one?). *sigh* Anyway, any info would be appreciated. Thanks, and take it easy, Blackcap (talk) 01:23, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the helpThanks for the speedy delete with the Charles Hoskinson article, especially during your break. Nonforma 02:15, 9 December 2005 (UTC) My failed RFA :)Dear Titoxd, I would like to thank you for supporting me on my RfA. Even though it failed with a with the final tally of 55/22/6, I want to thank you anyways. I don't want to be one a admin anymore until I reach 10,000 edits now that it's over with. Thanks --Jaranda wat's sup 03:35, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
User SubpagesHey Tito, I was wondering if you could tell me how to create a user sub page? I'd like to use it to practice certain tasks before forging straight into them. Thanks. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 04:49, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
The Quitting Thing
Tool helpHey, thanks alot! I wasnt sure if I had done it yet, so, now I know. Thanks again for going out of your way to let me know Banes 06:52, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
A thank you from AnnHi, Titoxd. I just want to thank you for voting to support me in my RfA. I know I'm very late thanking you, but I've been a bit caught up with college work. I hope I'll live up to the expectations of those who voted for me. Please let me know if you ever have a problem with any admin action that I carry out. Thanks again. Cheers. AnnH (talk) 20:41, 9 December 2005 (UTC) A small requestSir, I see you have reverted my edit of the Brian Larsen article. Please reconsider. I realize the revised version may not have been very neutral, but the subject matter really doesn't merit an article of such length. Mr. Larsen has often used false identities on the Internet to agree with himself and to brag about his "accomplishments", true or not. At the very least, the supposed connections between him and Fleetwood Mac should be looked into, to prevent Fleetwood Mac fans from wondering. Please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.246.82.175 (talk • contribs) 02:48, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

I hope the posting anon comes along and takes a look and joins in, too. -Splashtalk 04:41, 12 December 2005 (UTC) WikiProject NumismaticsDear WikiProject Numismatics member: You may have noticed the edits made by user:mom2jandk, and you may have also noticed that I have reverted most of them. I would like to leave this note as an explanation. mom2jandk is a new user and a clearly enthusiastic member of WikiProject:Numismatics. However, he/she has made several changes (specifically to the categorization scheme) that I reverted for various reasons. Among them, he/she:
After reading this fairly lengthy message, you might get the impression that I am attacking either mom2jandk or his/her edits; this is not the case. I have a great deal of admiration for him/her as a new user who is not afraid to jump in and try to improve Wikipedia and the Numismatics project. I hope he/she continues to contribute, and I believe he/she has a great deal to offer. This message is quite long because I wanted to explain the specifics of the categories (many of which, incidentally, were created by me.) Note that I placed merge tags on most of mom2jandk's categories. It goes without saying that, if there are any categories that should be altered and/or deleted, by all means make such changes, regardless of whether I or anyone else created them; neither I nor my edits are perfect. Apologies for using he/she; I assume mom2jandk's user name reflects her role as a mother but I wasn't completely certain. Thank you all and I look forward to continued work with you in the future. Paul 06:04, 12 December 2005 (UTC) Hurricane Katrina death countWe reverted almost simultaneously, but you un-reverted yourself so it didn't show as an edit conflict. Why did you un-revert? --AySz88^-^ 04:01, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Image galleriesYou recently commented at Wikipedia_talk:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Proposal_to_modify_WP:NOT_an_image_gallery. In a related development, another, in my mind, valuable Image gallery is up for deletion (AfD). Please comment as you see fit. Dsmdgold 15:35, 13 December 2005 (UTC) Re: About several thingsI'm going to take the liberty to respond to you in numbers. :-) Thanks once again!

How cool is this? Good work! That reminds me: that image that you have gracing our main page — if you were to add and to the shaded area, we could put those limits on the definite integrals instead and generalise it a little. :) -Splashtalk 21:14, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Vandals who create user namesHey Tito, if an anon 70.81.202.97 like this gets to a test 4 and then makes a user name to avoid that test 4 should he be blocked anyway? Pyrics is making the same vandalism edits as the anon IP. If you could take a look to confirm if it is the same type of vandalism, and let me know what the verdict is I'd appreciate it. Thanks KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 03:51, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
?sorry for that vandalism. i didnt know i could do that i guess i was experimenting. i love the site p.s. is this the proper way totalk to you? i wasnt sure —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.32.171.169 (talk • contribs) 07:04, 15 December 2005 (UTC) Comma splicere Hurricane Dennis, I think you don't know what a comma splice is. But I guess the sentence is correct with or without the comma. Jdorje 07:25, 15 December 2005 (UTC) WikispeciesThanks for your help with undoing the vandalism on Wikispecies.

Sorry about that, I meant to hit tab not enter..anyway, lol. I'm just wondering how many templates for blanking there are for warning vandals. I only know of 3 {{blanking}} , and the test2a and 2b ones are there more? Thanks KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 04:13, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
Shhh.How in the world did you notice activity on that most-out-of-the way corner of the world? I use a somewhat clumsy translude/copy-paste/delete in order to get AfD results for analysis. If you'll look at the history, you'll see that this spot is just a holding space. I'm trying to be low-key, but not going totally cold turkey. Thanks for being alert, though. 144.53.251.2 04:52, 16 December 2005 (UTC) Mcfly85HI there Tito, it's Moe. I was wondering, is it against Wikipedia policy to have what I have written on my user page about Mcfly85. If it is, I'll remove it. Mcfly85 says it is but I would rather hear it from someone like you. Is it? Also, Mcfly85 wont leave me alone. I kindly asked him to just leave me alone and he keep on leaving messages on my talk page. Thanks! — Moe ε 16:51, 16 December 2005 (UTC) News from EsperanzaHello, fellow Esperanzians! This is just a friendly reminder that elections for Administrator General and two advisory council positions have just begun. Voting will last until Friday, December 30, so make sure you exercise your right to vote! Also, I'm pleased to announce the creation of the Esperanza mailing list. I urge all members to join; see Wikipedia:Esperanza/Contact for more information. All you need to do is email me and I will activate your account. This will be a great way to relax, stay in touch, and hear important announcements. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) This message was delivered to all Esperanza members by our acting messenger, Redvers. If you do not wish to receive further messages, please list yourself at WP:ESP/S. Thanks. Numismatics Project archive talk pageI was wondering if you'd archive the Numismatics talk page when you get a chance. You mentioned before that it's easy, and I think the length is way out of hand (I know I have trouble finding stuff). I'll be happy to help figure out which sections are currently active and create new topics or however that should be handled. If this is something I could do as a non-admin, please tell me how. Thanks Ingrid 20:01, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
My Re-RFATitoxd, I have been renominated! Strange sequence of events. First Mcfly85 has been caught by the CheckUser and now this. — Moe ε 20:15, 16 December 2005 (UTC) Just a note, its not a big issue as there was a clear consensus, but generally you want to avoid closing deletion discussions that you have participated in. Best regards, Ëvilphoenix Burn! 22:42, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
YepI did mention to Jimbo that we talked to another developer. I have a feeling we're going to get it. We'll see. --Woohookitty(cat scratches) 23:29, 16 December 2005 (UTC) generational compressionwhy did you delete the article on generational compression? <email address removed> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.202.145.161 (talk • contribs) 00:02, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
IRCAre you on IRC right now? I've run into problems on a few different computers so I am wondering if this problem is affecting everyone. Thank you ahead of time.

Please do not use rollback to revert something that is not vandalism (in fact, the reversion to a redirect is close to vandalism, as no merging was done). --SPUI (talk) 02:45, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

re: BugzillaAs far as making it so it doesn't show your every email..I don't know. Kizzle and I used it months ago to try and get anon ip's from being able to edit pages like GWBush and were unsuccessful...but I like semi-protect a lot better anyway. I get a few emails a month as I only contributed a few comments there months ago and I haven't been back since. Maybe it has a preferences link?--MONGO 04:31, 17 December 2005 (UTC) Oh I see...no problem, post there in a minute...my understanding is that we are only waiting for the developers to implement it right? Also, to hide my email, I just filled out some lengthy log in thing, but can't remember how I did it. I am correct that this has passed and it is up to the developers, correct?--MONGO 04:38, 17 December 2005 (UTC) Thanks...this is great news...I had dropped out of the conversation and saw that it appeared to have passed but wasn't positive all the details. I'll post a comment now.--MONGO 04:45, 17 December 2005 (UTC) I had to dig up my old PW...any idea when this will be fully implemented by the developers?--MONGO 05:07, 17 December 2005 (UTC) Okay, I left a message on Bugzilla...hopefully we can implement this at GWBush and put a virtual end to the nonsense there.--MONGO 09:17, 17 December 2005 (UTC) Thank you!

Mcfly85 (again)I have a couple of questions on what happens now.
1) Should the IP addresses used by Mcfly85 that vandalized be counted as sockpuppets and be blocked?
2) Can I place vandal tags on the Mcfly85 sockpuppets user pages like the Willy on Wheels sockpuppets? SigYou think maybe it's time to change our sigs? Or do we still want to create awareness? Remember—NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER SURRENDER! We must push until this becomes a reality!
