Re:User:AntiFetch

"Spelling" Article

While I appreciate your efforts to keep the pages on Misplaced Pages clean, the edits I made on the "Spelling" article clearly were constructive. It stated that "Hercules" is a common misspelling of the "correct" "Heracles." This is factually incorrect.

Re:Science debate forums

Sorry

I didn't know I did it I thought I had the right time. I suppose the computer automatically tells you the right date I am new on Misplaced Pages talk and don't do it very much so I don't know how to do it very well.Captain Virtue (talk)

just a note

This warning: is probably the sort you'll want to avoid in future... it was placed 4 months after the last contribution by the user you warned, and as was pointed out by several posters, is rather harsh. I know you know that now... but it's something to keep in mind. That user's not been around since, but if they ever turn up again, you may want to apologise. Hope that helps. ++Lar: t/c 22:53, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Replied on your talk page and made a note regarding the warning you were speaking of.— Dædαlus 00:19, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

(Refactored from User_talk:Lar per my policy) Re, your message, I should have looked into that a bit more, all I saw at the time was a user who was continuously uploading images without licensing information, with no stop in sight. I'll try to avoid doing such in the future.— Dædαlus 00:09, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Nod. The odd thing about it though, was that the user hadn't done any uploads (or had any activity at all...) for 4 months at that point. I checked deleted (and oversighted) contributions as well, just to be sure I hadn't missed something in the contribs, and there were no deleted or oversighted contribs more recent than 4 months earlier. To be fair, that user strikes me as rather an odd case, Brion Vibber, our CTO, created a permission, and granted it to them, a permission never since given to any other user on en:wp that I could find. (which I just took away when Xeno asked about it(, which is why I noticed the message in the first place). Thanks for the follow up note to Heather... they may never come back but it was a good thing to do. (let's keep the thread here, ok? but I think we're probably done) ++Lar: t/c 00:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

G'day daed

hope you're good :-) - I thought I'd swing by after what I think was our first interaction over at AN/I in the thread you started about Jack bothering you. As you noticed, I don't think that was a good venue for raising your concern, and if I'm honest, I don't think you went about it in the best possible way - but I am most certainly well up for explaining to you why I feel that way, or having any sort of conversation, if you'd like. If you sometimes feel that folk misunderstand you, or you find that folk are getting angry, confused, irritated, or rude for reasons you feel are nothing to do with you - there may still be ways you can adapt and evolve your behaviour to smooth the path, not just for others, but importantly for you! - happy to chat if you'd like :-) Privatemusings (talk) 10:45, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

User talk:Frei Hans

Please consider toning down your last two posts here - with a block, an SPI and a RFC/U currently going, I don't think your comments will do anything but add to this user's sense of persecution and grievance.  pablo_hablo. 09:17, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Cheers - I think that's a better way of putting it.  pablo_hablo. 09:26, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

I came here to suggest the same thing. Don't let infuriating, frustrating editors get to you. Just disengage and edit somewhere else. --Stephen 10:28, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank goodness you replaced this with something milder, because if you had let that stand I think there would be people calling for your head. But you should not have posted something that strident in the first place. It is way over the top, completely inappropriate, and completely unbecoming... please, please, don't let something like that happen again or you may find yourself blocked. Think before you post. Thanks. (as per usual, you can reply here, I will see it and reply in turn) ++Lar: t/c 11:14, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Sockpuppets

Hi Daedalus. I was wondering if you could help me confirm whether User:Dimitri Yankovich is a sock of User:Wapondaponda? He's already been blocked indefinitely by an admin, and I just want to make sure the allegation is correct. The editing pattern is certainly suspicious.

I'm also curious about how you track down different socks. I sometimes have suspicions, but I don't really know how to go about investigating. Can you give me some tips? ChildofMidnight (talk) 19:14, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

You probaly want to put his recent behaivour on the request for comment for him, to show that he still is not listening.Abce2|Aww nuts!Wribbit!(Sign here) 09:30, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Speaking of which

You recently placed a speedy-deletion warning on his userpage - I can't see that he's been removing any speedy-deletion templates. Could you check your actions and apologise if necessarry?  pablo_hablo. 09:50, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Please clarify "nevermind", or strike through statements where you see fit. Right now your position on the matter is unclear. NJGW (talk) 19:45, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Carrt81

Thank you very much for the fast response. Carrt81 (talk) 05:23, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Carrt81

Rather than being a re-actionist, why don't you revisit Carrt81's talkpage and look at the whole story - especially the one where an admin warned him of his actions on my talkpage. I used courtesy and even told him he could do what he wanted with his talkpage. Look at the names and accusations he used in the link from the admin. In fact, here is the link ], after reviewing the language and accusations there, you may see my concerns. And you are not an ADMIN, so next time you think someone is in "fear" as you describe Carrt81, remember his stalking comments from the link. I asked him politely to begin aknew and remove old issues, he didn't so I removed them due to the passing of time. What do you ask people who have black eyes, "What did you do to deserve that?". Fear - give me a break, he was the one who said he was going to make me his project!--Victor9876 (talk) 08:18, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
