Deleted Page

I was wondering if you could get me the text from the deleted pages http://en.wikipedia.org/The_Masters_%28Group%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/Master_Plan. I made them as a joke to my friend a while back and we were talking about them and wondering what I had written. Thanks.-SaigonTheDon 04:34, 2 December 2008

Nice Template!

Thank you for creating that descriptive template. I did leave a message regarding the account creation request tool but your template is quite helpful in the heat of this situation. Thanks again.¤~Persian Poet Gal 17:17, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Np :) I hope this gets fixed soon :S. I tweaked it a bit to redirect users to the unblock mailing list but I fear it's gonna get overwhelmed. -- lucasbfr 17:18, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Yeah its a pretty ugly pickle right now >.<...I still think appending a link to requesting an account wouldn't hurt though. The unblock list is primarily for an unblocking after all. (Off topic: How'd you manage to conjure up that nice little preview message you wizard of wikicoding?!)¤~Persian Poet Gal 17:25, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Shoot nevermind:

Also, the ACC does not work for IP addresses currently blocked on Misplaced Pages. Users should be directed to email accounts-enwiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org to request an account. 4I7.4I7 17:11, 5 December 2008 (UTC) ¤~Persian Poet Gal 17:34, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

• Regarding User:Lucasbfr/UKBlock, any objections to moving it to Template: space? — xaosflux 08:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

62.30.249.131

are you aware you've blocked the majority of Virgin Media customers in the UK? several million people? that this block has had to be undone several times today alone? how about blocking 82.148.97.69 next time, genius! Jw2034 (talk) 00:24, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

If you had bothered to check the block log, the IP's talk page and the block message, "genius", you would have seen that I was not the original blocking admin on neither IP and that this block was in accordance with the administrator noticeboard discussion at that time. So yes, I am aware of the consequences of my actions, and contrary to you I did my homework. But I guess it takes less brain power to rant on someone's talk page than to actually consider the bigger picture, right? -- lucasbfr 07:41, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

with regards to the block log, you may not have been the original blocker, but you repeatedly continued to block after others had realised that there was a problem and the block removed. and I quote:

20:36, 6 December 2008 Lucasbfr (Talk | contribs) changed block settings for 62.30.249.131 (Talk) with an expiry time of 8 December (anon. only) ‎

1. 17:15, 5 December 2008 Lucasbfr (Talk | contribs) blocked 62.30.249.131 (Talk) (anon. only) with an expiry time of 24 hours ‎
2. 17:14, 5 December 2008 Lucasbfr (Talk | contribs) unblocked "62.30.249.131 (Talk)" ‎ (to use a more specific message)

please be a little more selective next time, rather than blocking several million people (which is a very big picture you've missed, repeatedly!). i'd advise you again that you should perhaps concentrate your wise efforts on the vandal menace of 82.148.97.69? Jw2034 (talk) 22:54, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

The 8 December block is not my decision alone. We need to think of the children encyclopedia. There a point where we can't ask volunteers to monitor all the changes made by that IP, checkusers to check autoblocks every 5 minutes and readers to sit through the massive vandalism. I suggest you visit the Administrator's noticeboard where this has been discussed. -- lucasbfr 08:53, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Do not do me like that

get a life bro editing the edits of other people do your research find a picture of the guy and you will see!!! You are a meanie and inconsiderate you should check your attitude Due you hug your mother with the arms that you use to hurt peoples internet dreams. It is unfortunate how you flaunt that previous vandalism on your page. It is embarrassing not only to the man who wrote but to you as well, it reflects poorly on your character. What is the smell? Oh it is just the lingering odor of your blatant disregard for others feelings. Low blow dude, could have even been hard enough for a gelatinous ball. JK man keep up the good work. It takes a special someone to edit an edit you must feel one step above those who try to make a difference in the world. Get of your high horse and get the stick out of your dung hole and just chillax. But seriously JK good work i admire it, seriously. Misplaced Pages is a useful tool and upkeep is important especially with all the crazys out there. Misplaced Pages has been an invaluable tool in my life for the betterment of my general knowledge; your contributions are well noted and appreciated thanks for the hard and dedicated work. Please keep it up. Please reply on this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.4.140.156 (talk • contribs)

Thank you for your time. While I am sorry you feel I am mean and inconsiderate, please remember that Misplaced Pages is an Encyclopedia not the Make a Wish Foundation nor any kind of weird Internet Role-Playing game. Edits must stand on their own merits and can be undone or deleted either by editorial process or because they do not adhere to our policies. -- lucasbfr 08:08, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Smooth return read the whole thing i like you man u aight. by the way how do you become an administrator and i do not think you are mean an inconsiderate. Do you get paid or is it a volunteer sort of thing?

I admit I was a bit confused by your message :) Nope it's a 100% unpaid, 80% thankless job ;) -- lucasbfr 19:55, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Only 80% thankless? ;) -Jéské Couriano 22:55, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

I get thanked once in a while :P -- lucasbfr 22:56, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

In all seriousness thanks, you as well as the others who maintain[REDACTED] deserve more thank yous. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.4.140.156 (talk) 04:20, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Virgin media message!

Apologies if this should go on This noticeboard but it apears your in charge of the ukBlock message. As the easiest work around is to connect to Misplaced Pages over ssh, i think it would be a good idea to mention this in the template. thank you--77.99.150.12 (talk) 03:17, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Yup you should probably ask on the noticeboard (I just wrote the original message :)). I fear however that this is not a very good idea to circumvent your ISP's countermeasures, since they might just decide to block the secure server too :( -- lucasbfr 19:19, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

You blocked me.

I appear to have been blocked by you. I don't quite understand why, I have always abided by the rules, and I don't hinder Misplaced Pages's progress. Please could you either unblock me or tell my why I have been blocked? Thankyou. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.185.16 (talk) 19:27, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

If you were able to post this message, that means you're not blocked. I unfortunately can't find any block on your current IP. Can you please be more specific (when did the block start/end, the block reason, etc...)? -- lucasbfr 19:49, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Bloomsfield, Kidsunited and so on and so forth.

Hi, why did you do this? RfCU regarding Kidsunited belongs there, as it is another Bloomsfield sock puppet farm. For example, I found this particular Request (Kidsunited) quite accidentally, and it is useful to know. --Miacek (talk) 20:47, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

My TfD

My template {{VNS}} is being considered for deletion. It is a sub for {{Repeat vandal}} (that i know you dislike). Please help keep it at its discussion page (see template). --Encyclopedia77 Talk 14:13, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

In all honesty, I dislike both templates for the same reason. I don't think either are of much use. :) -- lucasbfr 14:27, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

re: Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen song)

I don't really mind the infobox being removed for the moment. I just dont want all mention of Alexandra's cover to be removed. This song has been released as a download and will be released to shops very very soon. It is also 100% certain to be the Christmas number one in the UK. Furthermore, Alexandra has a huge fanbase already and cannot be dismissed as a 15 minute reality TV wonder. Look at Shayne Ward and Leona Lewis. At the end of the day, The X Factor isnt Big Brother! :-) - Cheers! JS (chat) 14:27, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

I think the desired outcome has been reached. Thanks for being so understanding! Happy editing and MERRY CHRISTMAS :D - JS (chat) 14:42, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Always happy to help :) -- lucasbfr 14:51, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

DYK discussion

Lucasbfr, thanks for your comments at the DYK discussion. I agree with you that in other cases an ANI threat would be over the top, but please understand that this editor has been disrupting DYK for several days, threatening numerous editors, and has attacked me numerous times—calling me a liar, etc.—for doing nothing more than upholding the DYK standard. In any other case you would be correct in saying that the section title Ottava created did not constitute an attack, but in this case it's really just the straw that broke the camel's back. —Politizer /_contribs 16:40, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Why have you blocked me!

You have blocked me from making edits unless I log in, Why? there will be NO vandalism registered to this IP address simply because I have not vandalized pages. you have a habit of blocking people for no reason and I would like an answer please! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex-hay-8uk (talk • contribs) 19:42, 14 December 2008 (UTC) --Alex (talk) 20:26, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Odd question

will you block me for 2 weeks? i need to take a wikibreak before I flunk school. --Encyclopedia77 Talk 21:18, 14 December 2008 (UTC) (P.S. Put up that {{Uw-block1}} template or something. Block Account creation, and Encyclopedia76 (my alt account).)
