Just FYI, this user, who you blocked indefinitely for a personal attack, is requesting unblocking. IMO, I think that while a block was certainly appropriate here, it might be a bit harsh to make it permanent. I think Starstylers was steamed up about a lot of warning templates from Dave1185, and lost his/her cool in a bad way. Anything I'm missing here? ]]<sup>]</sup> 15:12, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for blocking that IP. I don't see how that other administrator didn't see what he was doing was vandalism, considoring he was undoing redirections left and right.

Please block

You gave him that warning, and the same guy is back again, trolling your talk. Enigma 06:36, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

I am behaving and apologising as we speak

Thank-you for unblocking me. I am in the process of apologising to the latest group of offended and I am behaving within the constraints of wiki-laws. If I may add two cents- you were right in detecting an element of immaturity and rigidity among some of the complainants- though I admit I was wrong to continue provoking.Starstylers (talk) 09:46, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Puppeteering Question

My user page says that: "It is suspected that this user has used one or more accounts abusively."

I have never used another account besides this one and I have not abused my account as far as I know. Is there a way I can have that removed? Sydney180 (talk) 13:05, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Martella Wines

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Martella Wines, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Toms_Hardware

Hello Toddst1 - I received a message on my talk page indicating that I vandalized Toms_Hardware. This is simply not true. The original page, before I touched it, contained a very large section dedicated to pointing out every bad thing about Toms_Hardware and offered no positive counter points. It appeared as though it were a negative attack on the site.

I removed that portion and replaced it with a staff role of the editorial team. If you read the original section, I don't believe I vandalized anything. The original section did not provide any positive value.

Other media outlets have gone through rough times too, but their pages remain neutral.

I reverted to the staff role after an anonymous user kept removing it, insisting that the staff role was unnecessary. This person also indicated that he would remove staffs and other sections (like forums) from other peer sites and even indicated that he did in this talk page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:66.171.233.231

According to the Misplaced Pages history on that IP, it has been static for the last three days. If this user was indeed truthful and honorable in their intent, they would have done the same things to other pages of similarity. This was not the case.

Please assist.

Thank you. Bom tuannguyen (talk) 07:57, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello, the same user removed the edits again, the 3rd time over. I believe this violates a rule? The user does not have a login and continues to use this IP: 210.124.181.153

Please assist.Bom tuannguyen (talk) 08:29, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
