Thanks. This user made only two edits on March 18, and nothing since. Your point is well taken, but unless he activates my inclination is to do nothing, wait and see. I will watch him. --Anthony.bradbury 07:41, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Both, actually. After seeing so many blocked users' user pages, this is the first time I see an admin leaving an unscripted note. -- Altiris Exeunt 12:24, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

...err, no? I always thought you were an admin. Your edits, in particular, are 10 times more than mine even though you joined Misplaced Pages later than me. I always have the impression that a Wikipedian should have at least 10 000 edits to get the mop. -- Altiris Exeunt 06:10, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

RE: Smile Face Time!

Thank for the smile! This could possibly be an imitator of that vandal. I'm blocking anyway, no need to see the duplication of vandalism we saw ages ago.¤~Persian Poet Gal 22:20, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Here is a policy that makes it not eligible for deletion, "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such. " Both Gary Hodges and Tom Moncrieff were part of Buckingham Nicks. The producer and backup vocalist Charlie Chalmers has also been a major player in the soul music industry with uncountable hits stemming from the 1950's on. This is reason enough not to delete.

The only other thing would be to add a link to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Zeitgeist the Movie. However, based on this I'm not really sure if anybody will pay much attention. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 06:36, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I did mean that link but I could have used other. I put the message in and the anon still reverts to the badly linked version as do many others on articles about bands and the genre they belong in. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 06:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Zeitgeist The Movie

Thanks for pointing that out. I've salted the page. Just a little note: In the future, it helps to use the optional parameter of {{db-repost}} − e.g., {{db-repost|Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Zeigeist the Movie}} — when the re-creation is under a different title; this helps admins to find the original deletion discussion. In any case, thanks for pointing out the repost! — TKD::Talk 01:18, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

That is a disturbing policy. I've read the discussion at http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Zeitgeist_the_Movie and I'm deeply disturbed at the inability of Misplaced Pages to consider independent media as notable. I would think that a 2 hour film that took a year to research would be at least notable. I understand that you are enforcing what is officially accepted policy but if a film like this can't make it into Misplaced Pages, either the policy is being misapplied or the policy is misguided. I find this sets a distrubing precedent: Indy media that confronts the mainstream media will not be able to earn "notability" enough to get listed on Misplaced Pages. The Internet is flowering with excellent new films and Misplaced Pages seems to be the only place that censors them. As someone more experienced with Misplaced Pages than I, do you think there is any hope of this changing or is Misplaced Pages set in its ways? --Lxpk 04:39, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

template

I'm not sure, but there is Template:Uw-trivia, which asks users not to add meaningless trivia, which kind of covers that topic. There might be one in the deprecated Template:TestTemplates. Natalie 03:39, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Emerson Flag Co.

I declined speedy on this one, they assert (a) oldest X west of the Mississippi, (b) an Olympic sponsorship, and (c) inventing NFL team flags. All unsourced, as usual, heck they should have said they made the flags on the moon. Anyway, feel free to Afd this one, I did tag for sourcing and notability already, but an afd is probably in order.

Re your messages, Yes, they're all semi-protected with no expiration. While he only hit your first archive, his pattern indicated he would hit the others, so I took preventive action. It will stay protected unless you ask for it to be removed or another admin undoes the protection. Your user page protection is set to expire in a day. That was also preventative. As for the revert summaries, I didn't mind, actually, I barely noticed with all the reverting going on. As you might have figured out, I was using my user page as a canary to figure out what his next IP was. That's why I was protecting all the articles and everybody else's pages that were hit, but not mine. I got a little tired of it after awhile though. -- Gogo Dodo 19:05, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Re your messages: You got five on my user page and one on my Talk page. TheIslander was busy reverting things, too. Very busy. But then I started beating both of you because I started to switch over to the Admin rollback. I "cheated". =) I'm not sure why my comment was invisible to you. I can see it just fine, even before your fix. About that RfA, yeah, I reverted the whole thing. That was out of process, so needed to get undone. -- Gogo Dodo 19:37, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

If you're up for it, here's another little task

User:Cunsimin has uploaded a bunch of images of a French Rugby player, every one I've checked is a copyvio of something, but there's a bunch I haven't checked yet. If you tag em I can delete em, but I can't just delete em (so the etiquette goes) singlehandedly. Lmk and I'll pass on sweaty rugby players (which may or may not be a step up from dung)...

No prob, and good call on the COI. The way that major poker tournaments work is that 99% of participants are the suckers who willingly hand over money to the top finishers. Texascop may have actually made some money at a couple of tournaments, but his article will have to wait until at least a top ten finish at a major event. Cheers, ˉˉ╦╩ 01:49, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Re your message: Not really. Actually, I'm not entirely sure {{tl:blocked proxy}} is all that good of a reason. It's really more like "Infected PC that is vandalizing Misplaced Pages". I asked if the other admins will settle on a particular block length and reason. Probably won't get a consensus, but we shall see. If you look at the contributions for that IP, you will recognize the pattern on detecting it. Random word-looking edits in a single line, random amount of lines added, always editing the whole article (no section header in Recent Changes), always an anonymous IP, edits in mainspace only, and a very fast edit rate. -- Gogo Dodo 06:04, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I note your comments, but to be honest I've been watching this user for a while, and I think we're either dealing with (a) a very young user who doesn't understand the concept, or (b) a user who doesn't really care.

Misplaced Pages:Friends

I would say take it to WP:MFD. The closest Speedy criteria I can think of myself is G2 - Test, but that doesn't quite fit either. Not really Nonsense or Vandalism either. I started to stick a PROD template on it (WP is NOT Myspace), but the PROD template complained in large read letters that it was nto for use in Misplaced Pages space. So I think that MFD is likely the best place for it. Not fast, but I'm not sure if there is that much of a rush anyway. - TexasAndroid 18:02, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Re: Tried To Help An Odd Editor And Now Not Sure What To Do

Re your message: Oh, yes, I remember that user name. I saw his request for adminship at various places. I don't think it's really necessary to up the warnings. My suggestion is to nicely offer to help again. If he declines, well, there isn't much you can do then. You can't force him to accept your help. =) (And don't forget that you really are not under any obligation to help). As for the adopting thing, you can nicely point him to the adopter criteria saying something like he might want to read it before he adopts somebody. As for his adoptees, better to leave them alone instead of intervening. I think they will eventually figure things out when he is either unresponsive or unhelpful. He reminds me of another young, eager editor. That didn't turn out too well, but maybe this time it will be different. My main advice would be to be gentle. Being more forceful isn't likely to work. -- Gogo Dodo 06:32, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, one more thing... Like I said, you are not obligated to help. If you don't want to help, yet you don't want to strand him, I'm willing to give helping a shot. -- Gogo Dodo 06:34, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

The paragraph looks suspect to me. It doesn't really tell me anything beyond that he doesn't like computers (unsourced) and that he is notable.

Removing reports

Hi. Generally, if it looks (in the user's contributions) like they have been vandalising but have not received sufficient warnings, I would just comment on the report. However, it appeared in those contribs like the edits were made in (perhaps misguided) good faith with only a single warning, so it was appropriate to simply remove the report. I guess commenting or removing reports is just a case-by-case thing, but I certainly wouldn't feel obliged to simply comment on every report that is clearly premature.

Redirect of Pokemon films

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Pokemon films, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Pokemon films is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Pokemon films, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. CSDWarnBot 03:13, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

For the record, it was a redirect to a misspelled page. The page with the correct spelling is protected from creation. Forgot to mark the page as such after that had happened, whoops. :P -WarthogDemon 03:22, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Hah, thanks for the smile. The reason for warning myself is mainly comedic effect. I was on a tear to check my watchlist which was 2 days behind and saw the page blanking, but someone had reverted it, then I reverted again.

Hi WarthogDemon. I just wanted to say many thanks for the wikismile. It was much appreciated and I will be sure to pass it on when I get a chance. Thanks again and happy editing. MarnetteD | Talk 01:17, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Revert on sight - he left a message on my talk page, and he has been reported to WP:AIV after admitting he is a sockpuppet of User:BlackStarRock, who is indefinitely banned for trolling. -Jéské 01:44, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Corporate nazism

Acceptable? he he... Not even close. I've deleted it. Don't hesitate to tag anything like that with {{db-attack}}. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 02:46, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Re: Found Another Zeitgeist Page Needin Saltin

Please can you provide a link to the deletion discussion as it isn't in the history of the page. Thanks, mattbr 14:56, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Done, and in future there isn't really any need to let someone know, as the page will be deleted in due course. If you feel the page should be salted, writing in the edit summary should suffice. Thanks, mattbr 15:15, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

My edits on the pokemon lists.

Does it seem to you like I'm being too harsh on the lists? It seems like the past couple days all I've done is revert edits of people adding things like "PokemonX is found on Route X in the grass" and "PokemonX looks like a Blahblahblah". Just looking for an opinion! Regards SpigotMap 16:18, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Later added onto that here: . -WarthogDemon 19:29, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I normally just revert them, not as vandalism. I did revert a few today that WERE vandalism and did use the vandalism revert on them. Also, on the note of warning users, I generally never warn IPs unless they already have a history of disruptive edits. If they are a user, I may leave them a handwritten note on why the information they added was removed. SpigotMap 19:32, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Re your messages: No need to list me on WP:MW just yet! I tend not to edit very much on the weekends, which is why you didn't hear from me. Nothing drove me away or anything, but thanks for the sundae. =) I also got a new computer and having an absolute fun time transferring everything over. I'm a bit slow. Anyways, about your question, I see that particular editor was blocked. The whole Toys 'R Us thing does seem a bit too much detail to me, but I don't know a whole lot about Pokemon so I don't know if it's some huge event or not (doesn't seem to be, but that's just my uninformed opinion). You shouldn't break 3RR over content disputes though. Is it game guide content, well, I honestly don't know because I don't follow Pokemon so I can't tell what would fall into too much information or not. It seems to be too much, but like I said, that's just my uninformed about Pokemon opinion. -- Gogo Dodo 04:57, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Re your message: Ah, I see. I don't judge people by what they choose to contribute on, so edit away on Pokemon things. =) If you look at my contribution history with said tool, you will see that I have a rather odd edit history with one particular article that invites similar kinds of edits as Pokemon articles I'm sure. -- Gogo Dodo 23:42, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Aww...thanks :) --Hasek is the best 02:29, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Responding to your message

I responded on his talk page, and will watch that user. Academic Challenger 00:03, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Point of clarification: I was adding a new warning for vandalism I had edited and beginning to number the warnings so it would be clear when we reached the 4th warning for purposes of blocking. I replaced the warning I left on that page, in appropriate order. I left your heading from your first warning, although the heading change I made was more inclusive of all of the editor's vandalism. Keep up the good work!--Kukini 02:16, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
