	Hey Nufy8, keep up the good work in making sure that Wiki articles are accurate. However, I do have a complaint, if my paragraph wasn't neutral, the paragraph before mine is not neutral as well.

			Note: the current paragraph about the football program does advocate a position. But your the mediator not me. It gives the viewpoint of the university. Since it gives the viewpoint of the university, which is not neutral (by the way), it is unfair to censor the opposing viewpoint. viewpoint neutrality is in your guidelines. If you remove my edit, I say you should remove the paragraph from before. You never said earlier that my article was removed for the lack of cites, you removed my article for neutrality purposes. If this is the case, you have made the athletics section less neutral than it was before.

Your input is requested

Your input would be appreciated at this Request for Comments. Kelly Martin (talk) 16:23, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm not as personally involved as some of the others to comment, and it looks like they've done an adequate job summing things up. Nufy8 17:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

hey nufy y did maru leave wikipedia? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mil Falcon (talk • contribs) 19:53, 14 December 2006 (UTC).

He was in hot water over some of his actions, and a request for arbitration was filed against him. He lost his administrative powers as a result of the ruling. Nufy8 20:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Why has Maru left Misplaced Pages? 193.154.194.38 08:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

See my comment right above yours. Nufy8 18:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:LoGSacrament.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:LoGSacrament.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

COMPLETE!

With the addition of a castlist and the proud editors/conversionsists, I do think that the Wiki Wars page is complete!

...So now what precisely should we do to let off excess nerdery? --AK-17 16:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for compiling the cast/editors. As for what to do next, we need to get it out to a wider audience. Gwern suggested BJAODN as a start. Nufy8 17:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Also, we should probably look it over for errors. Nufy8 17:50, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Worked on getting the script to be more wikiterms than otherwise and fixed a few spelling errors. Also, you've got a last name now. ;) --AK-17 14:28, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Vandalwhacker... nice. Nufy8 16:50, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

POV... or escriptions?

Just like to know why you think that adding more descriptions of Pantera's albums is POV. Examples: why'd you delete info about Dimebag's guitar sound, why'd you delete how the albums compare, why'd you delete info about the songs...?

A statement like this and this claiming that an album is the band's "harshest" or most "brutal" is a subjective statement of opinion; if there are reputable sources that agree with this statement, then it's possible to incorporate it into the article in a more appropriate manner.

pulp fiction // dumb and dumber

This is a serious topic. Dont delete unless you know. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.166.41.89 (talk) 00:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC).

Asserting that Dumb and Dumber is similar to Pulp Fiction is a rather farfetched claim. Such claims are subject to removal unless a reliable source is provided to back it up. This is why I reverted your edits, and will do so again until this information can be verified by a reliable source. Nufy8 00:46, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Vandal reversions

Thanks for reverting the anonymous vandalism on my talk page. It's futile in this case, however. This is a serial vandal on AOL, who vandalizes userpages and user talk pages of anyone who warns him. It turns out that AOL is a perfect ISP from which to vandalize anonymously. Every time an AOL user accesses Misplaced Pages, AOL assigns a different IP address! So an AOL user can make 20 vandal edits from a dozen different IP addresses. Very frustrating. My userpage is now semi-protected, but it looks like the talk page will have to be also. -Amatulic 16:52, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I've had similar experiences. Best to just wait it out until they get bored. Nufy8 18:28, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Panterapromo.jpg

The source of image is still needed. Alex Spade 10:19, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Supershadowmainpage.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Supershadowmainpage.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Thanks From the undertow

Hello. I appreciate the effort that you have put forth in fighting vandalism, especially reverting particular edits to my userpage. I am appalled that a vandal would imply that I take part in such a nefarious activity. It has never even crossed my mind. the_undertow 21:53, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Nufy8 22:25, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

My UC Irvine Edit

Hey Nufy8, keep up the good work in making sure that Wiki articles are accurate. However, I do have a complaint, if my paragraph wasn't neutral, the paragraph before mine is not neutral as well. That paragraph gives arguments for not having a football team. I checked the cite for the paragraph before mine and it does not seem to back up his assertions. what if I begin my paragraph with "Critics contend that"? Why allow a paragraph in support of not having a football team and not allow one that is in support of having a football team. By censoring my paragraphs and not the paragraph before, I believe that Misplaced Pages is engaging in viewpoint discrimination.

If you can supply references that support the claim that critics contend UCI's lack of a football program is diminishing it in some way, then go ahead. Note that the current paragraph about a football program does not advocate a position, but merely explains why UCI does not wish to create a football program. Also, this is referenced; it might be more accurate to link to the PDFs that discuss it, however. Nufy8 03:04, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Note: the current paragraph about the football program does advocate a position. But your the mediator not me. It gives the viewpoint of the university. Since it gives the viewpoint of the university, which is not neutral (by the way), it is unfair to censor the opposing viewpoint. viewpoint neutrality is in your guidelines. If you remove my edit, I say you should remove the paragraph from before. You never said earlier that my article was removed for the lack of cites, you removed my article for neutrality purposes. If this is the case, you have made the athletics section less neutral than it was before.
