==Re: Tyler on AN/I (Your comment)== ==Re: Tyler on AN/I (Your comment)==
I appreciate what you said on the AN/I I posted about Tyler, however, this appeared to be a case of a user's actions putting another user's work on Wiki in jeopardy, by posting an offensive messsage on their userpage and sending it to them by email. This was, imho, a serious case involving an onwiki action (at least until I found out Tyler'd been taking the ****). I won't do it anymore, simply cause I don't want stuff like this to happen anymore. ] (]) 15:41, 29 November 2008 (UTC) I appreciate what you said on the AN/I I posted about Tyler, however, this appeared to be a case of a user's actions putting another user's work on Wiki in jeopardy, by posting an offensive messsage on their userpage and sending it to them by email.

== Silly permissions ==

''Further, Falcadore you may not be aware of this, but the creator of a page is not permitted to remove CSD tags from that page.'' I would like to know just how I might have been aware of it, and bear in mind there are a lot of WP documents, policies and guidelines, making it intimidating large amount of material for any new editor to read and be familiar with. I don't mind the verdict, but I do mind how it was done.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, what the author is or is not entitled to do is not stated sufficiently clearly. The annotation for CSD should more clearly indicate this. --] (]) 05:12, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Welcome Back!!!!!!!

Welcome back! We all missed you! I hope that guy got banned. *hugs you* (>'_')>Irunongames • play 02:55, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

The guy-in-question is currently on a 3-week block (it expires December 4). GoodDay (talk) 17:10, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to say hi. Glad you couldn't stay away :-) Safflle (talk) 16:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Good to see you back.

Misplaced Pages was a little bit worse the couple of days you were gone. I'm glad to see you back. Mononomic (talk) 03:06, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Query on AIV report

Thank you for your recent AIV report on 82.132.138.200 (talk · contribs). After reviewing the IP`s contributions, I am not sure why you listed it as being a "spambot or a compromised account." Any light you could shed on this would be appreciated. Thanks, Kralizec! (talk) 16:32, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

I'm lazy and used TW.. I hate filling out AIV by hand. It looks like the stalker that has ben plaguing Possum's page for months. //roux   16:39, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
You get points for honesty. Thanks! But that said, please do not be lazy when making AIV reports, because it made me waste time checking out the IP`s other contributions looking for "spambot" or "compromised account" activity when I could have just blocked the IP for NPA violations after seeing the first diff. Thank you for your time, Kralizec! (talk) 16:48, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Just not Right

Hey Roux! I am QEII's Little Spy. What you did to the template was good but I was looking more in the line ofTemplate:House of Tudor rather than collapsing each section. I was wondering if you know how to do that.Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 01:42, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Oh.. yes. I'll get to it later tonight. //roux   01:55, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Space music

I'm sorry to see you've closed the case. If it's any consolation, I suspect Milomedes would have deliberately objected to any mediator, so don't take it personally. Anyway, thanks for making an attempt. There's no need to reply, as I want you to maintain your neutrality. But I did want you to know that your effort is greatly appreciated. I was actually going to take the case myself but declined for this very reason. Viriditas (talk) 08:42, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the kind words. All I can say is that Milo objected to me personally, and the other users have elected to pursue other methods of DR. So it goes. //roux   08:53, 25 November 2008 (UTC)


"I suspect Milomedes would have deliberately objected to any mediator"
Viriditas, you really need to work on your AGF. Since I have mediation skills, I have high standards for mediators. Surprised? See my "Wiki Wiffle Bat" barnstar-like small mediation award: #Wisdom shown should always be rewarded.
"going to take the case myself"
Of course I would have declined you (also), but not because I would have declined anyone. I looked over the MedCab mediators page, and I'd say the best choice for Space music would have been the one or two that specialize in near-hopeless cases.
Mediators need to be as uninvolved and neutral as possible. You became heavily involved with one side at Space music, and would have added another COI to what is already a tough non-profit-commercial WP:COI case.
Since a mediator must know policies and guiderules as well as an admin, they should also consider going to admin school even if they don't plan to become admins.
You aren't my good buddy, but I don't dislike you, and we do have a lot of culture in common. Milo 11:16, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

The only hopeless case here is you, Milo. Your longterm ceaseless trolling, endless bad faith personal attacks, repeated false COI accusations and incessant tendentious obstructionism are finally coming to an end. I warned you 2 years ago it would come to this; now all your chickens are coming home to roost. And there are a lot of chickens. Best you go find yourself a new hobby. --Gene_poole (talk) 04:50, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
Gentlemen, I would appreciate it greatly if your disputes were not carried out on my talkpage. Please note that is directed at both of you; I am singling no one out here. //roux   06:07, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Changing usernames on jawp

Hello Roux. My name is Carkuni.

Announce your application for username change on Misplaced Pages:利用者名変更依頼 (See User rename log). Thank you. --Carkuni (talk) 13:58, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

The Template Barnstar
For fixing up Template:Infobox Park, so I can remove non-free images without worrying about breaking anything. J Milburn (talk) 18:46, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
Aw, thanks. It was really nothing.. //roux   18:51, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

RfA thanks

The RfA Barnstar
Roux, I would like to thank you for your participation in my recent Request for Adminship, which passed with 112 supports, 4 opposes and 5 neutrals. A special mention goes out to Stwalkerster and Pedro for nominating me, thanks a lot for having trust in me! In response to the neutrals, I will try to double check articles that have been tagged for speedy deletion before I CSD them and will start off slowly with the drama boards of ANI and AN to ensure that I get used to them. In response to the oppose !votes on my RfA, I will check that any images I use meet the non-free content criteria and will attempt to handle any disputes or queries as well as I can. If you need my help at all, feel free to simply ask at my talk page and I'll see if I can help. Once again, thank you for your participation, and have a great day! :) The Helpful One 22:17, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

RE:

I did the bot style thing you gave me, but it doesn't give me a picture of the thing i chose. What should I do? SteelersFan-94 07:48, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I can't find all the sub pages, all I can find is your main status, and status template. How do I find them? SteelersFan-94 07:58, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

About your design

I would just like you to know that your talk and user pages are the best-designed that I've seen on Misplaced Pages thus far. That DON'T PANIC cat is also awesome. Spidern 15:59, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Aw, thank you. The cat isn't mine though... {{User:Ceiling Cat/dailykitten}} to use it. //roux   16:31, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Scroll and Key "notables"

The box is an eyesore. Could you soon do better? SLY111 (talk) 16:13, 26 November 2008 (UTC)SLY111

An anon IP did that; I didn't want to just revert him/her again. But yeah, it's been a couple weeks since they did anything, and never bothered to respond on the talkpage, so I'll fix it. //roux   16:24, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

copyvio tag

An undoubted copyvio is where the material was added at one time by one person from a known source that you can specify. If you have not found the source, use the "copypaste" tag. Knowledge organization (management) , for all you know, might be copied from a PD source. DGG (talk) 15:45, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

turns out the situation is just a little different than I had guessed -- see my talk p., and my note to the author. DGG (talk) 19:51, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Silly permissions

Further, Falcadore you may not be aware of this, but the creator of a page is not permitted to remove CSD tags from that page. I would like to know just how I might have been aware of it, and bear in mind there are a lot of WP documents, policies and guidelines, making it intimidating large amount of material for any new editor to read and be familiar with.
